After installing WordPress, there are a few settings you should adjust for your fresh, new WordPress website. Many of the default settings work well as they are. However, some may not be optimal for all of us, which is why you should take a closer look at some of them. This post will walk you through all the points you should consider to setup WordPress after installation. Depending on whether you are launching a blog, a business website, or a portfolio, these settings may vary. Follow along!
This post is a follow-up to the previous post on how to install WordPress manually.
Here's an overview of the individual points discussed in this post on how to setup WordPress after installation:
- Discourage search engines from indexing the website
- Change Site Title and Tagline
- Enable or disable user registration
- Adjust time and date settings
- Change WordPress permalink structure
- Review WordPress media settings
- Delete default Page, Post, and Comment
- Adjust settings for discussion and comments
- Complete your author profile
- Disable directory browsing
1: Discourage search engines from indexing the website
First off, you need to make sure search engines do not crawl and index your website just yet. Since no fresh WordPress installation is a finished product, you don't want Google & co. to find your website and present it to their curious users before you have finished designing and setting up the whole thing.
In your WordPress admin area, navigate to Settings > Reading. There, make sure the box for discouraging indexing is checked as shown in the screenshot below.
Remember to click Save Changes once you are done!
Note: It is possible to tick this box already during the WordPress installation process. Therefore, if you already checked the box while installing WordPress, this setting should already be activate.
The whole point of this setting is to make sure people don't find your website too early. After all, you want to take your time and finish developing and designing your WordPress website before letting Google and other search engines to display it in their search results.
2: Change Site Title and Tagline
By default, your new WordPress website does not have a very descriptive site title and tagline. Therefore, it is a good idea to start by changing the default settings to whatever suits your website.
In your admin area, navigate to Settings > General. There, you can change the Site Title to the name of your website. By default, it is something like "WordPress Site" – not exactly a best-seller. Hence, the site title is what shows up by default in your web browser's tab when you have your website opened.
Additionally, update the Tagline to be a slogan or some other short description of the nature of your website. It simply explains what your website is about. There is simply no excuse for leaving the default tagline "Just another WordPress site" in place.
Finally, don't forget to click Save Changes on the bottom of the page!
3: Enable or Disable user registration
If you wish to start a WordPress blog with multiple authors creating content, you may want to enable user registration. That way, your fellow writers can create their own profiles and log in to create their own pieces of content in the future. To do this, go to Settings > General Settings and check the box for Membership to Anyone can register.
Additionally, you need to define the New User Default Role. The different user roles have different capabilities or levels of "authority" on your WordPress website. Here's an overview of what each role can do:
- Administrator: has access to all the admin features within your WordPress site
- Editor: can publish and manage posts, including the posts of other users
- Author: can publish and manage their own posts
- Contributor: can write and manage their own posts but cannot publish them
- Subscriber: can only manage their profile
Depending on the nature of your website, you might want to go for different roles. For instance, if you are creating a blog with multiple authors, you could set the default role to Contributor. That way, they can create posts but these have to be published by someone with a higher level of authority – e.g. by yourself.
4: Adjust Time and Date Settings
Under the General Settings, you can setup your timezone as well as the date and time formats. Here are the settings you should pay attention to and define them to best suit your needs:
- Timezone
- Date Format
- Time Format
- "Week Starts On"
5: Change WordPress permalink structure
In my opinion, this is one of the most important points for a good setup after WordPress installation. Not only does it make your WordPress website more user-friendly but it also supports your efforts for search engine optimisation.
The default permalink setting for WordPress is far from optimal: whenever you write a new post, it gets a URL that simply holds a number, e.g. https://yourwebsite.com/?p=123. This does not really give any idea about the content of this particular page or post to someone who sees this URL. Not to you, not to your users, and not to search engines, either.
Therefore, it is a good idea to change your permalinks to contain a slug that actually stands for the content and purpose of the post or page. Navigate to Settings > Permalinks, and choose one option that works better than the default one. My recommendation is to choose Post Name as a base for creating permalinks as in the screenshot below.
And as always, remember to Save Changes when you are done!
6: Review WordPress media settings
These settings define how WordPress handles image files you upload while creating your blog posts or other content. By default, WordPress creates multiple different image files with different sizes and dimensions for each picture that you upload. This can quickly bloat up your media folders within your website, with unnecessarily many files created from each single image.
To change the settings, navigate to Settings > Media. There, set the different size options to 0 for Thumbnail size, Medium size, and Large size. This will prevent WordPress from generating separate image files for all different sizes.
Additionally, there's a setting called Uploading Files at the bottom. You may want to consider whether your uploads should be organised into separate folders based on month and year. Depending on your own preferences, consider what is more practical for yourself. If you will be uploading hundreds of media files to your blog, for instance, having them chronologically organised in separate folders could be a good idea. In that case, simply leave the box ticked.
Finally, remember to click Save Changes.
7: Delete default Page, Post, and Comment
During its installation, WordPress automatically creates some sample content. You can have a look at the sample page, post, and comment to get an idea how they work. However, they are not exactly too useful for anyone, so you might as well delete them right away.
To do this, navigate to Posts and delete the post called Hello world! by clicking Trash under the post title. Similarly, do the same under Pages for Sample Page and Comments.
8: Adjust Settings for Discussion and Comments
Whenever you write a blog post or create other content, your readers may want to leave their feedback for you to read. There are a couple of settings you should consider changing to better manage and control the discussion. In the screenshot below, I've highlighted the boxes you should check.
The first one tells WordPress to try and notify other bloggers whenever you link to their website from your article. The second one simply breaks the discussion thread into several pages when the number of comments exceeds a certain threshold – 50 top-level comments in this case.
Finally, to avoid spam and inappropriate comments, check the box for manual approval of all comments. You will be notified whenever someone posts a comment to your website. After that, you can review the comment and approve it under Comments as shown in the screenshot below.
9: Complete your author profile
Whenever you publish a blog post, your readers will see a block of information about you – the author. This block is located either at the bottom of the post or in the sidebar, depending on your settings. It's an awesome tool to introduce yourself briefly to your readers.
Navigate to Users > Your Profile. Under Contact Info, you can add links to your social media profiles. Moreover, write a short summary about yourself under About Yourself > Biographical Info. This is an excellent opportunity to give your readers a better idea about who you are and what you like.
Additionally, go ahead and register on Gravatar to add a Profile Picture of yourself. By using Gravatar, your profile picture will also be displayed on other blogs, too, whenever you post a comment yourself.
10: Disable directory browsing
Disabling directory browsing is a great way to increase the security of your WordPress website. If it's not disabled, anyone who's curious to see what's inside your WordPress installation, can browse through your file directories.
To see if this is the case for you, simply enter /wp-includes/ after the base URL of your WordPress website, e.g. https://yourwebsite.com/wp-includes/. If you see a 403 Access Forbidden or a 404 Not Found page, you're safe. However, if you see a collection of folders and files that belong to your website, follow along!
To disable directory browsing, you will need to edit your .htaccess file. You can do it either by using an FTP client like Filezilla on your desktop or FireFTP directly in Firefox. You will find the .htaccess file in the root directory of your WordPress installation. However, since the file name starts with a dot, it is a hidden file. Therefore, make sure your FTP client is displaying hidden files so that you can find it.
Next, make sure you have a backup of your WordPress website before you do any editing to your .htaccess file. Once you're done, go ahead and open the .htaccess file using your FTP client or File Manager in your web host's cPanel. All you need to add to the file is the following line of code below the existing contents of the file:
Options All -Indexes
Hence, the last lines of the .htaccess file should now look something like this:
Now, simply save the .htaccess file and upload it back to the root directory of your WordPress installation. That's it!
Summary: How to Setup WordPress After Installation
All in all, WordPress comes with a pretty good default setup. However, it's a good idea to consider adjusting a few things after a fresh installation when you start developing your website. Hence, I hope you found this post helpful!
You will need to have a self-hosted WordPress website for these settings. If you're totally new to WordPress, check out this helpful post on the differences between WordPress.org vs WordPress.com.

The College of Lake County engineering transfer department will hold information sessions Tuesday, Feb. 13 and Thursday, March 15 for prospective students interested in taking the first two years of a Bachelor of Science in engineering degree at CLC.
Both sessions will be offered at 7 p.m. in Room A013 on CLC's Grayslake Campus, 19351 W. Washington St. in Grayslake. Parents are also invited to attend.
The 30-minute sessions will include information about the CLC engineering transfer curriculum and the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC) College of Engineering Pathways program (which offers guaranteed admission after successfully completing two years at CLC). The sessions also will cover CLC's guaranteed transfer admission programs established with the University of Illinois-Chicago and Northern Illinois University. Other topics include the National Science Foundation Scholarship program, CLC's Engineering Club, academic support services and more.
The first two years of any engineering curriculum is common, allowing "pre-engineering" majors to start at CLC and transfer to any engineering field and enjoy considerable savings, said Professor Rob Twardock, engineering transfer department chair.
"With the average four-year public university tuition at $15,000-20,000 per year, plus room and board of $10,000-12,000, engineering students can save about $25,000 per year by starting at CLC. We offer small classes taught by professors who are professional engineers," he said. "Additionally, the Engineering department's Baxter Innovation lab offers students a hands-on environment for creating prototypes, programming and working on design projects."
The deadline to apply to the UIUC Engineering Pathways program for Fall Semester 2018 is March 15. Find out more at http://www.clcillinois.edu/programs/egr/options/engineering-pathways.
The deadline for preferred consideration for the NSF Scholars program is April 15. The application is at http://www.clcillinois.edu/paying-for-college/financial-aid/types-of-financial-aid/clc-foundation-scholarships.

Abortion and Economics
What does abortion in the United States look like? The Guttmacher Institute explores this issue in some detail. For a start, it notes that 57% of women opting for abortion are economically disadvantaged. In fact, the abortion rate among women living below the federal poverty level ($9,570 for a single woman with no children) is more than four times that of women above 300% of the poverty level (44 vs. 10 abortions per 1,000 women). And when asked to give reasons for abortion, three-quarters of women say that cannot afford a child. At the same time, black women are almost four times as likely as white women to have an abortion, and Hispanic women are two and a half life times as likely. Almost half of women terminating their pregnancies have had previous abortions, and 60 percent of abortions are concentrated among women who already have children.
Clearly, the importance of economic factors is stunningly obvious. Let's explore some of the larger trends. The Guttmacher Institute also presents detailed statistics on the abortion rate (abortions per 1000 women, age 15-44) and the abortion ratio (abortions per 100 pregnancies ending in abortion or live birth). Since 1980, the pattern of abortion has been trending downwards. The rate fell by almost 10 percentage points since 1980. Although the trend was more or less continuous, the steepest decline occurred during the 1990s. Matching rates of decline to presidential terms is enlightening. During Reagan's eight years, and the first Bush's term, the average abortion rate fell by 0.3 percentage points a year. But under Clinton, this rose to an annual average 0.5 percentage points. Under the second Bush (with the caveat that data only go to 2003), the rate of decline fell by 0.1 percentage points a year, practical standstill. The data for the abortion ratio are even more stark: here, the decline under Clinton is double that of the overall Republican average. So, there we have a seeming paradox: the largest decline in abortion took place under the sole Democratic presidential regime over this period. And yet the pro-life movement is strangely silent, and still hitches its wagon to the fortunes of the Republican party.
Let's go a little further with this empirical exercise and look at poverty rates. The poverty rate, whether measured by individuals or families rose under the first Bush administration (average half percentage point a year), fell dramatically under Clinton (average half percentage point a year), and rose again under the younger Bush (quarter percentage point a year). Are these trends related? Casual observation would say yes. But let's get a little more rigorous, and look at some empirical evidence. In particular, let's do a simple ordinary least squares regression of the abortion rate and the abortion ratio on a constant plus the poverty rate, 1980-2003. Here are the results:
Abortion rate = 2.06 + 1.71 * Poverty rate (R-squared= 0.37)
Abortion ratio = 9.43 + 1.32 * Poverty rate (R-squared= 0.44).
Both poverty coefficients are (highly) significant at the 1 percent level. This suggests that if we can reduce the poverty rate, there will be a more-than-proportionate reduction in abortion. Of course, these results can be challenged on the grounds that the data could be non-stationary. Running the regression in first differences should remove trends:
Change in abortion ratio = -0.25 + 0.37 * Change in poverty rate
Again, this is significant at the 1 percent level (but using the abortion rate is not). Remember, this is a very simple methodology to explore a rather basic hypothesis. But it seems clear that economic factors, insofar as they affect poverty, affect abortion patterns. Mapping these results into policy would suggest that the pro-life movement should broaden its scope to encompass economic as well as coercive strategies, since the ultimate goal is the reduction in abortions. It is also for this reason that I am highly skeptical about the need to vote Republican on pro-life grounds. But can the pro-life movement wrest itself from the grasp of the Republican party?

. . . the pro-life movement should broaden its scope to encompass economic as well as coercive strategies . . .
Ain't gonna happen. The "pro-life party" does not come out smelling like a rose on issues favoring economically distressed people, who are often more likely to have abortions. Better not to draw attention to that and hope nobody notices. Consistency is not a strong point of the pro-life movement--a major reason they aren't taken seriously by more people.
It is also for this reason that I am highly skeptical about the need to vote Republican on pro-life grounds. But can the pro-life movement wrest itself from the grasp of the Republican party?
Or do they even want to? Pro-life honchos are so addicted to this Republican con job, it's like their crack pipe. Very hard to imagine they will go into rehab any time soon. As long as the GOP talks the talk, it can apparently be forgiven for not walking the walk. In fact, as we've seen in the past few years, it can be forgiven for just about *anything*.
Of course, the real question underlying all this political bickering is: Do you TRUST Republican politicians to take meaningful action any time soon to end abortion? And if so, why?
(1) Roe v. Wade has been upheld by a majority of Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices for the last 33 years which is not surprising given the fact that it was a majority of Republican-appointed justices which gave us Roe v. Wade to begin with back in 1973.
(2) Six of the seven justices who voted in support of Roe v. Wade were appointed by Republican presidents.
(3) Republican congresses--including the recent rubber-stamp congress--have done absolutely nothing to overturn Roe, even though Article III, Section 2, of the U.S. Constitution clearly gives it the authority to except and/or regulate the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
With Republicans in control of the entire government: both houses of congress, the Supreme Court and the White House, it would seem to be the perfect opportunity to rid the country of abortion. Just DO IT! Ram it through! But No...they were too busy invading Iraq to even think about it.
(4) Sandra Day O'Connor and Anthony Kennedy, both appointed by Ronald Reagan, wrote landmark decisions favoring abortion and gay rights.
(5) Since the Roe. v. Wade decision of 1973, Republican-appointed justices have always been in the majority by a margin of at least 7-2.
More than 30 years of an overwhelming Republican SC majority, yet Roe v. Wade remains the law of the land. Could it be they have other priorities and aren't telling us?
So here we are into the 4th decade, still waiting, hopes now pinned on Roberts and Alieto, the newest saviors who will surely set about striking down Roe. Maybe. Sort of. In a few more decades. Or maybe not. Don't hold your breath. Just keep voting Republican, it's sure to work eventually.. maybe.. sort of..
The pre-born need more than de jure protection, they need de facto protection.
The stresses tempting women to abortion eg poverty and social stigma are exacerbated by Conservative economic policies and anti-single parent rhetoric.
Voting for politicians who will alleviate poverty and social stigma will probably save more unborn lives than politicians who promise to change the law or the judiciary.
Pro-lifers should ask what policies will save more unborn lives.

2 independent reviews for Cycling & mountain biking vacations in Mongolia
Reviews for Cycling & mountain biking vacations in Mongolia
Rebecca Drinkwater review 13 Mar 2010
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?Excellent trip but the highlight has got to be the stunning country side. Wasnt sure what to expect but the mountains were tough to cycle up but fun to come down. Hiding out from the rain in a local families nice warm ger being given homemade yaks cheese and yak yoghurt vodka. The locals were so friendly
2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?Take plenty of warm clothing and a warm sleeping bag as the temperature really drops at night and it can get really cold despite the temperature during the day. Dont try the local Arag! A local weak alcoholic drink made from mares milk but it is an acquired taste - tastes like gone off milk!
3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?Yes. They dont light fires (no matter how cold it is!) as wood is rare and should be left for the locals. All rubbish is taken away and empty water bottles are given to locals for reuse to sell their Arag.
4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?Fantastic - fully recommend it.
Andrea McNeill review 10 Aug 2008
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?Fantastic scenery, wide open unspoilt countryside which was very sparsely populated. Great terrain for mountain biking as there is no traffic apart from the odd inquisitive yak on the path. A total contrast to central London. We met a great group of people from Australia, US, NZ and the UK with a mix of ages from about 30 to late 60's which all added to the experience.
2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?Key tips are: 1) take your own toilet paper as it isn't provided (very necessary item). 2) take your own bike seat, the first 3 days are all on river rocks and your butt knows all about it. 3) other essentials - pack enough sunscreen for the whole trip (the villages do not sell it), bio-degradable soap and shampoo as the river is the only washing facility, diarrhoea tablets are a must (7 out of 12 people on the trip got the runs/vomits). 4) If you're a novice mountain biker this might not be the trip for you. We were lucky that the more experienced members of the tour party helped us out but, the crew didn't seem willing to help or advise in this respect.
3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?Other than the tour leader all staff on the trip (drivers, cooks, mechanic etc) were local Mongolians & some provisions were bought from the local community during our trip e.g. goats milk, cheese etc... There were a few areas where the operator could improve and ensure that they continually comply or exceed the guidelines they set e.g. toilets were positioned too close to rivers (within 5-10m when 50m was meant to be the minimum), a few local crew disposed of rubbish out of the window of the truck, ensuring only bio-degradable soap is used at all times. Some of the campsites (those near to towns) were not really suitable (broken glass, rubbish etc...) and no effort was made to clear this up or improve it for the community. It was not made obvious to us what other efforts the tour operator was undertaking to support the local community.
4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?Mongolia was a great destination & the scenery and culture is a great experience for all travelers, the freedom that a bike provides is an added bonus. One downside on our trip was that over half the Group got food/water poisoning & given all food and water is provided by the tour operator this was very disappointing.
Read the operator's response here:
Compliance with issues such as the toilet position in the camp and staff attitudes to rubbish disposal is, on the whole excellent. Our staff generally excels themselves in these regards, not because they like to follow rules but because keeping the environment clean is important to them and their culture. We will ensure that the staff is fully informed on these issues... particularly new staff. Regarding the use of bio-degradable soap, we do encourage its use, mentioning it in the Trip dossier, the Trip Information Booklet sent to passengers before the trip and in the group meeting upon arrival. Any further involvement on our part could be construed as inappropriate. The company efforts in supporting the local community and local charities are something that we are happy to discuss with passengers. I am pleased to say that from providing some materials for auction (i.e. a bicycle among others) to raise money for the Lotus Children's Foundation, we were able to raise over US $7000 that was directly given to the foundation on mid-July 2008. This money is going towards a community centre that will be built in Ulaanbaatar. On one other issue was passengers getting sick. This is as unfortunate issue with most travel. However, there did seem to be more problems on this trip than usual. We have been using a water filter this year, in order to reduce our amount of plastic bottles. After reviewing the feedback, we have decided that confidence in the drinking water supply is critical to people's enjoyment of the trip, and we believe that this is not possible using a filter. We have therefore decided to return to the use of plastic bottles until a suitable alternative can be found.

SHAKSHUKA- Recipe is from TORI AVEY of
I have copy pasted the ingredients and made a few changes in the method.It is a complete and satisfying meal and my kids love to mop it all up with garlic bread.
here goes...
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 medium brown or white onion, peeled and diced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 medium green or red bell pepper, chopped
• 4 cups ripe diced tomatoes, or 2 cans (14 oz. each) diced tomatoes
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• Pinch of cayenne pepper (or more to taste-- spicy!)
• Pinch of sugar (optional, to taste)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 5-6 eggs
• 1/2 tbsp fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Heat oil in a deep pan on medium. Add chopped onion and garlic , sauté for a few minutes.
Add the bell pepper[I also added babycorn and corn ,don't know how authentic that is ..but suits my taste buds just fine :) ], sauté over medium heat until softened.'
Add tomatoes and tomato paste to pan.Mix in well. Add spices and sugar, stir well, and allow mixture to simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes till it starts to reduce. Add salt and pepper to taste.I added more chilli powder….and I added some chopped sausages too…:)
Crack the eggs, one at a time, directly over the tomato mixture, making sure to space them evenly over the sauce. Its better to place 4-5 eggs around the outer edge and 1 in the center..
Cover the pan. Allow mixture to simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked and the sauce has slightly reduced. Keep an eye on the skillet to make sure that the sauce doesn't reduce too much, which can lead to burning.
From the creator of the recipe :) ---Some people prefer their shakshuka eggs more runny. If this is your preference, let the sauce reduce for a few minutes before cracking the eggs on top-- then, cover the pan and cook the eggs to taste.
Garnish with the chopped parsley, if desired. Shakshuka can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
For dinner, serve with a green side salad for a light, easy meal.

Retail stocks have turned up sharply in the past two days, and at least one stock market analyst thinks that could be a sign that the economy is poised for a rally.
Otto Grote, a veteran retail analyst with Derby Securities in New York, said strong gains yesterday and Tuesday among the nation's retailers broke a six-month downtrend in the retail sector.
His firm's Derby General Index of 56 retail stocks, which fell to 1441.63 at the end of August, from 1620.65 at the end of February, rose more than 25 points in the past two days. Mr. Grote said the index bottomed out in June, rose in July and "waffled" in August before its "breakout" this week.

To fix an object to a wall or ceiling, you need to use wall plugs so you can insert screws. The best type of wall plug to use depends on the material of which the wall is made. For example there are different plugs for concrete, brick, gypsum blocks, aerated concrete, perforated stone, hollow building blocks, wood wool cement and plasterboard.
By buying plugs and screws as sets, you can be sure that they will match each other. Only buy good-quality screws and nylon plugs. Cheap (plastic) plugs often don't hold securely. And cheap screws can bend or even break when they are tightened firmly. So avoid frustration and injuries, and always choose good-quality materials and tools. (See also the step-by-step instructions 'Working with wall plugs').
Use your drill's depth gauge to avoid drilling the hole too deep. If your drill doesn't have a depth gauge you can slide a spacer ring on the drill bit and tighten the screw to fix it at the right drilling depth. If you don't have a spacer ring, you can stick a piece of colored tape at the right place on the drill bit.
The right choice of screw and plug depends on the weight to be supported and the material of which the wall is made. The right combinations of screws, plugs and drill bits are shown below.
These plugs are suitable for all kinds of surfaces, and are available in two types. If the plug has a collar at the open end, the collar fits over the outside of the drilled hole and prevents the plug from sinking deeper into the hole. A plug without a collar can be pushed deeper into the wall or behind a tile. Available in Ø 5 to 14 mm.
A brass anchor plug is suitable for all kinds of materials with a high and regular density. Once it is inserted into the hole this plug cannot rotate, so it is suitable for use in boards. These plugs can be used with M6 and M8 bolts.
Hammer fixings enable you to work very quickly – you just hammer the plug together with the screw into the drilled hole and it's immediately secured. These fixings are intended for use in non-structural assembly jobs, as well as for window frames with large material thicknesses.
Available in Ø 5, 6 and 8 mm and lengths of up to 120 mm.
These plugs are suitable for boards with a thickness of 6 mm and upwards.
They have a short expanding section and are intended to be used with particle board screws.
Available in Ø 8, 10 and 12 mm.
This plug has a self-tapping outside thread and can be used directly with a special bit, without the need to first drill a hole. Suitable for use with particle board screws up to Ø 5 mm.
The butterfly plug has 'wings' which spread out when the screw is tightened, giving the plug a high load-bearing capacity. These plugs will not turn in the hole when the screw is tightened. Butterfly plugs can be used in plasterboard, fiberboard and similar soft materials.
Available with M5 and M6 screw threads.
This is a special type of plug for cellular or aerated concrete. With these plugs you should first predrill the hole to a smaller diameter and then drive the plug into the hole with a hammer.
Available in Ø 8, 10 and 14 mm.
Chemical anchors are used to fix threaded rods or anchor rods in concrete or masonry. They use a capsule of quick-setting adhesive resin into which the rod is bonded, giving them a high load-bearing capacity. They are suitable for use in concrete and brickwork, and available from M8 to M16.
How it works
1 Drill a straight hole slightly larger than the diameter of the capsule
2 Blow the dust out of the hole, for example using a drinking straw
3 Push the capsule into the hole
4 Insert a threaded rod or anchor rod into the hole, breaking the capsule open as you do it
5 Push the threaded rod or anchor rod as far as possible into the hole, align it and then allow the adhesive resin to harden. After hardening you can cut or saw the threaded rod to the desired length if necessary

Inattention to Results
How does a team go about ensuring its attention is focused on results? By making results clear and rewarding only those behavior and actions that contribute to those results.
A team that is not focused on results:
· Stagnates/fails to grow
· Rarely defeats competitors
· Loses achievement-oriented employees
· Encourages team members to focus on their own careers and individual goals
· Is easily distracted
A team that focuses on collective results:
· Retains achievement-oriented employees
· Minimizes individualistic behavior
· Enjoys success and suffers failure acutely
· Benefits from individuals who subjugate their own goals/interests for the good of the team
· Avoids distractions
In the mind of a football of basketball coach, one of the worst things a team member can do is publicly guarantee that his or her team will win the game. In the case of an athletic team, this is a problem because it can unnecessarily provoke an opponent. For most teams, however, it can be helpful to make public proclamations about intended success.
Teams that are willing to commit publicly to specific results are more likely to work with a more passionate desire to achieve those results. Teams that say "We'll do our best" are subtly, if not purposefully, preparing themselves for failure.
Perhaps more than with any of the other dysfunctions, the leader must set the tone for a focus on results. If team members sense that the leader values anything other than results, they will that as permission to do the same.
The reality remains that teamwork comes down to practicing a small set of principles over a long period of time. Success means embracing common sense with uncommon levels of discipline and persistence.
Teams succeed because they are exceedingly human. By acknowledging the imperfections of their humanity, members of functional teams overcome the natural tendencies that make trust, conflict, commitment, accountability and a focus on results so elusive.
Future ways to ensure the five dysfunctions can be overcome:
· Annual planning meeting and leadership development retreats
· Quarterly staff meetings
· Weekly staff meetings
· Ad hoc topical meetings

By Carol P. Bartold, Senior Reporter
Jan. 3, 2018: As 2017 ended, confusion reigned not only for Bronxville taxpayers hoping to take advantage of their soon-to-be-slashed property tax deduction but also for entities charged with tax collection. The Village of Bronxville, Bronxville Free Union School District, Town of Eastchester, County of Westchester, and State of New York all levy and collect taxes in Bronxville. The entities operate under varying fiscal calendars, which could ultimately affect prepayment deductibility.
The only certainty is that, beginning this year, under the tax reform bill passed in November by the U.S. House of Representatives and in December by the U.S. Senate and signed in December by the president, taxpayers will be limited to a $10,000 deduction for state and local taxes.
According to an Internal Revenue Service memo issued on December 27, 2017, prepayment in 2017 of 2018 real property taxes that have not been assessed in 2017 will not be deductible.
Village Administrator Jim Palmer reported at the December 11, 2017, board of trustees meeting that taxpayers had begun calling village hall expressing a desire to prepay their 2018-2019 property taxes. At that time he announced that the village would not accept prepayments. The village typically issues the warrant authorizing the collection of taxes on June 1, the first day of its fiscal year, with its budget in place.
However, on December 23, 2017, Palmer announced that the village would accept property tax prepayments, with the proviso that amounts would be refunded in 2018 should the ultimate decision be that such prepayments are not deductible. The decision came after New York Governor Andrew Cuomo signed Executive Order #172 on December 22, 2017. The order authorized local officials to levy taxes immediately and allowed taxpayers to make partial payments before the end of 2017.
Palmer reported that, as of December 31, 2017, the village had received 2018 prepayments on approximately 260 properties.
In a communication from the Bronxville Union Free School District, also dated December 22, 2017, Superintendent Dr. Roy Montesano stated that, upon general counsel's advice, the district, following a July 1 through June 30 fiscal year, would not legally be able to accept 2018-2019 school tax prepayments. The governor's order, per Montesano, did not give the district authority to adopt an estimated 2018-2019 budget, which would determine the tax levy, or to collect taxes on an estimated levy.
The Town of Eastchester announced that, based on the governor's order, it would accept prepayment of 2018 town and fire district taxes based on the 2017 levy of those taxes. The town further stipulated that 2018 water district, sewer district, and school taxes could not be prepaid.
Westchester County, on December 26, 2017, stated that the county would not accept any prepayment of 2018 property taxes. County officials cited the inability to issue the warrant authorizing tax collection before the end of the year. On December 28, 2017, New York State Budget Director Robert Mujica issued a statement criticizing the county's decision not to allow taxpayers to prepay their 2018 taxes.

Bronxville Overview
Bronxville is a quaint village (one square mile) located just 16 miles north of midtown Manhattan (roughly 30 minutes on the train) and has a population of approximately 6,500. It is known as a premier community with an excellent public school (K-12) and easy access to Manhattan. Bronxville offers many amenities including an attractive business district, a hospital (Lawrence Hospital), public paddle and tennis courts, fine dining at local restaurants, two private country clubs and a community library.
While the earliest settlers of Bronxville date back to the first half of the 18th century, the history of the modern suburb of Bronxville began in 1890 when William Van Duzer Lawrence purchased a farm and commissioned the architect, William A. Bates, to design a planned community of houses for well-known artists and professionals that became a thriving art colony. This community, now called Lawrence Park, is listed on the National register of Historic Places and many of the homes still have artists' studios. A neighborhood association within Lawrence Park called "The Hilltop Association" keeps this heritage alive with art shows and other events for neighbors.Bronxville offers many charming neighborhoods as well as a variety of living options for residents including single family homes, town houses, cooperatives and condominiums. One of the chief benefits of living in "the village" is that your children can attend the Bronxville School.The Bronxville postal zone (10708, known as "Bronxville PO") includes the village of Bronxville as well as the Chester Heights section of Eastchester, parts of Tuckahoe and the Lawrence Park West, Cedar Knolls, Armour Villa and Longvale sections of Yonkers. Many of these areas have their own distinct character. For instance, the Armour Villa section has many historic homes and even has its own newsletter called "The Villa Voice" which reports on neighborhood news.

A busy section of Forest Avenue in Portland – between Marginal Way and Interstate 295 – will close to traffic at 10 p.m. Friday and won't reopen to traffic until 7 a.m. Monday.
The city is closing the section of Forest Avenue as well as three of the I-295 exits at the location to allow construction crews to install new storm drains as part of a multi-year infrastructure plan.
City officials are advising residents to use alternate routes around the area and plan their trips accordingly.
The following I-295 exit- and entrance-ramps will be closed until Monday morning:
• I-295 North Exit 6A – inbound off-ramp.
• I-295 North Exit 6A – outbound Forest Avenue on-ramp.
• I-295 South Exit 6A – inbound off-ramp.
Crews are expected to work around-the-clock on the project through Monday.
"The city's contractor will cross Forest Avenue with new storm drain infrastructure that will link the State Street storm drain to the new storm drain outfall recently installed at Back Cove," the city said in a statement. "This work is part of the city's ongoing effort to reduce combined sewer overflows into Back Cove. The city has chosen to fully close this section of roadway in order to minimize disruptions and have the work completed over the course of one weekend rather than a partial closure which would have lasted a month."
Portland is in the midst of a decades-long construction plan to separate sewer and stormwater infrastructure in order to reduce the flow of untreated sewage and runoff into Back Cove and Casco Bay during heavy rainfall.

Leaked images supposedly from within an LG display production facility in Vietnam offer our first glimpse at Apple's rumoured 6.5-inch 'iPhone X Plus' as Apple reportedly begins "production equipment trial runs" of the large screen iPhone X handset.
The images posted on MacX forums show multiple 'iPhone X Plus' displays that follow the design of the current iPhone, with a notch at the top of the display for Apple's TrueDepth camera system used for Face ID biometrics and advanced photography features. – It appears that the notch may be slightly smaller than the one used on the current iPhone X, however it's hard to tell.
Interestingly, at the bottom of the display are flex cable with a printed part number that matches with past formats used by Apple. There's also a production week, the 46th week of 2017 which matches up to the middle of November, the same month the iPhone X went on sale.
A report by KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is expected to discontinue the iPhone X later this year when the company introduces their 2018 iPhone line rather than following the tradition of continuing to sell older devices for a reduced price.
The decision to discontinue the iPhone X later this year has been decided because Apple doesn't want a lower priced iPhone X to damage sales of the low-cost 6.1-inch LCD iPhone that is expected to be introduced later this year.
It appears Apple's 2018 iPhone line-up will include a new iPhone X, iPhone X Plus and a low-cost 6.1-inch iPhone with LCD display featuring a metal back much like the iPhone 7 and the True Depth Camera System for Face ID from the iPhone X.

"I think that painting today is pure intuition and luck."
Francis Bacon on Matthew Smith (1909-1992)
For most of us, our relationship with art begins with a line. We take a pencil or a crayon and delineate our idea. In our enthusiasm, we may even attempt to colour it in. In the experience of many, that attempt leads only to disappointment. We know that a painting is more than just a coloured-in drawing, but how do we do it? What exactly is the difference?
This course explores the gulf between drawing and painting and then seeks to provide a bridge between the two disciplines. Beginning with simple pencil studies, we will then develop our work in both charcoal and ink, gaining confidence in our abilities, before embarking on five weeks of painting in bold colour.
This course is open to all-comers and is ideal for beginners or those who wish to take their art in a new direction.
The theme for this particular 8 week Pencil To Paint course will be abstraction and we will look at how form, gesture and emotion all play their part in successful picture-making, regardless of genre.
Topics will include:
Line, measurement and proportion
Colour: theory and mixing
Tables and chairs and a roll of newsprint paper are provided. Please bring a drawing board, paper or pad and your preferred drawing media. Materials required for sessions using colour will be discussed nearer the time.
Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available for a small donation.
16:30 - 18:00
Wednesdays: 18, 25 April; 02, 09, 23, 30 May; 06, 13 June (8 x 1.5 hour sessions)

Senior Center closing, sold for development
BLUE ASH, Ohio (Rich Jaffe) - At the end of March 2016, the Sycamore Senior Center in Blue Ash will close its doors.
It's one of the few recreation centers in the area dedicated specifically to senior citizens and its loss is sending shock waves through their community. For hundreds of senior citizens from 18 surrounding communities, the senior center is the social center of their entire universe. So the question is, when the place closes, what happens to them?
About 400 seniors use the center at least a couple of times every week for everything from exercise and dance classes, to a hot meal; which for some is the only one they'll eat all day. More than anything they get camaraderie.
Member Gail Scully told Local 12, "I've joined the friendship group from here. We go see movies, plays, go to eat, oh do we eat. We love to eat."
When members got word the center will close at the end of March, they began to worry. While staffers scramble to find other programs for the members at different locations, many remain optimistic.
Sherry Goldfon's been going for less than a year, "It's gonna be hard but it's gonna be fun too. It's gonna be a challenge ... Exciting something to do."
Megan Ulrich from Maple Knoll said, "So what we're saying is, we understand. Let us help you through this transition. Let's find out what activities you like at Sycamore and let's really decide where you want to go to them and see what your options are so you're not losing that activity, those friends and that social-ness that you really need to remain independent and happy."
Maple Knoll, the owners of the property, sold it for development and the reason was simple - money. The facility consistently costs and uses more than it brings in, going more than $152,000 in the hole over the previous nine months. Two million dollars over the last 10 years. And with state medicare/medicaid cuts, the owners had to cut their losses.
Concerned member Allen Haines said, "We didn't know there was a problem. We have an annual fundraiser here where they ask for donations to help make up any deficits, make up the difference between the revenues and what the actual expenses are. The membership for the most part thought we were meeting that goal."
But they were wrong.
All of the staff members at the senior center have been offered jobs at other Maple Knoll facilities. Programs like Meals On Wheels and transportation services will continue for the Sycamore members. A meeting will be held Wednesday, March 16, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the center to give members a chance to ask questions and connect with other facilities.

The first big concert I remember attending, besides a church revival or Fifth Sunday Night Singing, was Charlie Daniels at the Peach Festival in Gaffney, SC with the Pirates of the Mississippi opening. I was around 14 years old and my dad took me. It was a great time and I remember being in awe when Charlie brought out his golden fiddle to play the part of the devil in "The Devil Went Down to Georgia."
This past Sunday night I took my 9 year old daughter to the Jason Isbell show where she got to see him wield his Gibson goldtop (among many other guitars) through a set of songs leaning heavily from his latest two records Something More Than Free and Southeastern. The band was tight and played a good 20 songs over the evening, and it was a totally different Isbell show than my previous Isbell outing a few years back in a club that held 150 people max. (I beat him at pool at that show, and really wanted to slip him one of my band's CDs, but didn't.)
Seeing Isbell & the 400 Unit in this 3,000 capacity setting felt a little odd. The venue was far from sold out, but had a respectable crowd filled with a good range of ages and the stage backdrop of stain-glassed windows and backlighting was amazing with a light show that was on point. However, spontaneity and smiles were at a minimum and the band stopped after each song to switch out guitars, tune-up or take a swig of sweet tea. Don't get me wrong, I was silently singing along (not out loud and out of key like the woman behind me) to almost every song, bobbing my head and loving every minute of the show, I just didn't get the "rock show chills" until the double Les Paul attack of "Never Gonna Change" kicked in. Throughout the night Jason barely cracked a smile, save for when keyboardist Derry DeBorja brought out the accordion for the crowd favorite "Codeine." He even mentioned it was his favorite part of the show and you could tell!
One of my friends mentioned that Isbell was "at the top of his powers" at the moment, and I have to agree. The last two albums are phenomenal and some of the best songwriting of this era. I guess I just like my rock shows to be a little more reckless, and I have to think that maybe he's still getting the hang of performing sober. He just seemed a little uncomfortable on the big stage and who can blame him?
On the way home from the show, my daughter stated, "I thought he was really good. And he's kind of, how do you say it, buff? I wasn't sure if that was his veins or a tattoo on his arm." She also requested "24 Frames" on the way to school the next morning, and asked me what Jason's baby's name was, so I guess she does pay attention to what dad plays in the car. I told her I was glad that her first show was one of her dad's favorite songwriters and I hope that one day she'll look back on it in awe as I do with that golden fiddle.

New England Trip
Last year, I did a trip with Don and Mitzi as part of the Whispering Giants Tour with a stop to explore Niagara Falls. We had planned to ride through the New England states on the way home, but changed our route to avoid a storm. So, this year I went on another trip with them through New England and picked-up some stop for the Tour of Honor.
Don, David, Mitzi, and "Rebel" about to head-out from Manasses, VA.
We crossed the Potomac River via historic Whites Ferry. Its the last ferry still in operation on the Potomac River.
Finding some roadside attractions is always fun on a road trip. The Haines Shoe House was a nice stop on our way to Newburgh, NY to see Orange County Choppers. Who would build a shoe house? A wealth man who made his fortune in the shoe business named Haines.
Orange County Choppers was a fun stop. They have some great bikes on display, such as the FBI bike and the Spiderman bike. There were way too many for me to post them all here. It's definitely worth the trip to checkout their bikes. They also have a good restaurant.
Don is a former US Navy submariner, so it was fate that we just happened to pull up to a submarine on display in Portmouth, NH – The USS Albacore. Its was an experimental submarine commission by the US Navy. We were able to take tour of the sub and buy some cool souvenirs. That's one of the great things about a road trip – finding fun things along the way that you didn't plan.
We stayed in cabins at Moody's Motel & Cabins near Bar Harbor, ME. Moody's has a great diner. If I lived in Maine, I'd eat there all the time. The meals and pies was the best diner food ever!
We took a great boat tour in Bar Harbor. During the boat ride, the Captain threw some food near an Eagle's nest. Don was able to snap the picture below just as the eagle grabbed his meal. It was an interesting and relaxing boat ride.
Just after we checked into a hotel in Bangor, the fire alarm went off. We found-out that it was caused by someone smoking in their room. It was a non-smoking hotel. We had some great lobster in Bangor. I ordered lobster rolls twice – they were great. I have read several Stephen King books and wanted to see his house during the trip. It did not disappoint. The iron fence has bats, spiders, and dragons. There was also a very cool Paul Bunyan statue in Bangor.
While in Bangor, we stopped to see the Cole Land Transportation Museum. I thought it would to be a small museum, but it was much larger and impressive than I expected.
We visited the Mt. Hope Cemetery in Bangor. It is a very large and historic cemetery that has burial plots on hill sides. While many folks would not think of visiting a cemetery unless you have a loved one buried there, they can actually be very fascinating to visit.
I wanted to see a live moose in Maine, but never did. So that gives me an excuse to go back one day. Next time, I'll also ride into Nova Scotia, Canada.
Last fuel stop before we entered Canada. The scenery near there was really nice, so we had to take a few pics.
Crossing into Canada. We spent the night in Sherbrooke, Canada so we could enter the US the next day via Derby Line, VT.
We crossed back into the US at Derby Line, VT. I saw a news story about this border town that really made me want to see it. While driving into the US through the town, there is a border crossing. However, there is also a street connecting the two border towns that only has potted plants on it to delineate the line. Of course, I had to straddle the line. There is a library/opera house, Haskell Free Library and Opera House, that sits right on the border. There is a line on the floor of the library delineating the border that we all had to straddle.
Since we were in Vermont, a trip to the Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Factory was in order. It was a fun tour, but be prepared for long lines.
Our last site to see on our way home was Sachs Covered Bridge. Its a very cool bridge in Gettysburg, PA. This bridge was built pre-civil war and was used by portions confederate army to withdraw from Gettysburg.
It was a great trip with some great motorcycle friends. I can't wait till my next motorcycle tour…
