Delivery: Mid May to Late May
Stripy yellow courgette variety that produces fruiting courgette even without the aid of pollinating insects, so produces huge yields whatever the weather and insect numbers that year. Bumper crops of golden yellow fruits with white stripes and bred in the UK for British weather. Perfect!
You'll get bumper harvests of dependable Courgette Goldmine whether it's a good summer or a bad one. Great news when you are at the mercy of the variable British weather.
We recommend you position your small plants outdoors in rich soil. Courgette plants are spreading and like lots of room to grow. Space plants 3ft (90cm) apart in a row or place one plant per trough or container that is at least 1 ½ ft (45cm) in diameter.
If you plant earlier than May, keep an eye on the weather to see if frosts are predicted. Simply place some protective horticultural fleece, which we supply at Marshalls, over the courgette plants in the evenings beforehand.
Keep well-watered after planting and you'll be picking pretty courgettes every other day through the summer. Courgettes full of flavour and delicious fried with butter and oil.
How your plants arrive
You receive 3 young plants in one pack. Each of your plants arrive to you as young plants containing a 'plug' of soil with roots running through them and some small green stems and leaves.
Although they are little they are the perfect size to get growing fast once you plant them up.
Your plants will arrive to you in a sealed plastic wallet or container contained in a bubble-lined envelope or a box for larger orders. The sealed container allows your young plants to stay healthy by giving them an ideal air and root environment when it arrives to you.
Check your 3 plants are there in the plastic container, according to your order.
Can't plant straight away?
If you cannot plant up your courgette plants straight away into their permanent position make sure the plugs of your plants are kept moist at all times.
You can place your plants on a saucer or tray of water so the plugs are immersed at the beginning of the day. Keep an eye on them and take them out of the water once the soil is moist from absorbing the water beneath.
Keep your plants in a well-ventilated and light position in their plastic wallet after giving them water. Look to planting in their permanent position within 5-7 days.
All six have survived and due for planting out
Please unpack the plants as soon as you receive them and sit them in a tray of shallow water if they appear to have dried out in transit.
Once you have received our superb young plants follow these simple instructions...
Our products are all grown with the utmost care and to high standards of quality. We regularly check our nursery stock to determine exactly when they will be at the optimum time for despatch.
We despatch our fresh, nursery-grown live plants (including vegetables, trees and flowers) when they are at a stage of growth ready for you, the customer, to plant on at home.
The delivery period shown on your order confirmation indicates when you can expect to receive your order and we will endeavour to despatch your plants in this period within 7-14 days

My, how time is flying!
Hard to believe I haven't posted in a week! Seemed like just yesterday that I wrote my last post…
Hard to believe that my baby is done with Kindergarten and will move onto the first grade!Hard to believe that the rose bushes that were just thorny stems are now beautifully in bloom…
Hard to believe that my youngest cutie turned 4 and is now wanting to be a black belt in Taikwondo…
Just like the last week has gone by in a blink, the last 6 years seemed to have flown by.
Just like that, my kids are becoming more and more wonderful as they move through life.
I am just trying to enjoy everyday and live in the now so that I don't miss it… although even with this consciousness I still feel like it is going way too fast.
How do we really enjoy this time without it getting away from us?
Happy Friday!! Enjoy every moment!!

Jorge Santiago Links Up with Strikeforce, Will Fight Quinn Mulhern in September
Jorge Santiago confirmed on Twitter recently that he has signed with Strikeforce, and will be fighting at welterweight. Santiago will meet Quinn Mulhern at Strikeforce: Melendez Vs. Healy on September 29.
"Just signed with (Strikeforce)!" Santiago posted. "Making my first welterweight debut in September 29."
Santiago (25-10) earned two straight victories in Titan Fighting Championship earlier this year after being released by the UFC. He lost both of his UFC bouts in 2011 to Demian Maia and Brian Stann.
Mulhern (18-2) has won three consecutive fights, including a decision victory over Yuri Villefort earlier this year. His last loss was to Jason High in 2011.

Before I went on vacation I mentioned a couple of dresses and promised each of them its own post.
The first is made using the bodice pattern I altered to make my BurdaStyle competition dress. The only changes I made were to place the zipper in the back and differ from some of my straight grain marks in order to get the print unidirectional. I then added a simple box pleated skirt to this bodice and chose a wide hem for the skirt. I wanted to add pockets, but didn't get around to do it before we left. Maybe I'll add front pockets later sometime.
I love this bodice, and the print works well on this I think. The thing I would change if I make this again is the center front seam, which suffers from stress – I think it would be better to simply cut the fabric on the fold for this piece.

Recently I've had a nice fresh look at my dreams and goals, and it seems a good time to define what Cherry Kino is, so here it is!
Cherry Kino:
My name is Martha Jurksaitis, and I'm an analogue film and photography artist.
I channel my activities through Cherry Kino, which is and always has been a very personal expression of my love for analogue film and photography, presented for others to experience and share. Cherry Kino encompasses my filmic and photographic art, my curatorial and teaching work, creative writing, and resources about analogue film that hopefully help others become inspired too.
I believe we are born to do what we love, and I love making analogue images!
I'm fascinated and moved by all the wondrous techniques that can be applied to film, and I'm delighted to share Cherry Kino with you. Thanks for visiting me!

I think butternut is my favorite too with yellow as a close second. glidingcalm - thanks!
During Shiloh they were either in butternut there dying in the orchard, dying without water or thin-lipped still in Purdy, where cannon boom and rifle shot came clear even on a breezeless day, sliding through the clapboard walls, clotting milk and setting loose that first wall-eyed notion of leaving the South behind.
Sorry for all the good ol 'boys in butternut and gray, but they had some responsibility for what happened -- and for losing.
The bunch disease first appeared on heartnut trees, the most susceptible walnut species, and spread quickly to butternut, which is also very susceptible.

Black Women s Blueprint Black Women s Blueprint
Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
Black Women s Blueprint s purpose is to take action to secure social, political and economic equity for women of African descent. We fight to end the exploitation and devaluation of Black women and girls in the private and public sphere. We engage women of African descent in the development and implementation of comprehensive, social justice approaches that put communities at the forefront of advocacy and prevention.
The organization's primary program is its TRUTH COMMISSION which provides grassroots organizing training and engages women and men of African descent in arts-based activism and organizing including consciousness raising using film, music, theater, and social media. The Truth Commission's purpose is to spark dialogue, develop advocacy strategies and mobilize around the convergence of race, class, gender and other intersecting oppression in women's lives where these impact us most--at the disproportionate rates of physical and sexual violence against us, poverty and exploitation of our bodies in popular culture.
The organization's second initiative, its MUSEUM OF WOMEN'S RESISTANCE (MoWRe) aims to counter the effects of popular culture, and promote respect and dignity for Black women by highlighting and teaching their rich contribution to world history, raising self-esteem, self-worth, connecting the past to the present and shaping the future, helping women and girls to connect and inspire pride. Part museum, part library, this Project is committed to work with women and girls to create innovative historical exhibitions tailored for our boys and girls offering them alternative images of women. This program has already obtained materials for several exhibits on the lives of key women from throughout the African Diaspora, including Kenya, South Africa, Haiti and the United States. At capacity this program will house artifacts, books, papers, video documentaries, video re-enactments, periodicals, t-shirts, buttons, campaign banners, organizational files etc. in a grand space catering to community adults and youth alike.

At Christmas, I like to send a yearly recap to all of my friends and relatives who are now scattered in the different places that life has landed them. And with life being what it is (life), some years are filled with more milestones than others. 2016 has been one of those years.
Holiday Greetings!
Since I have no idea where to begin this 2016 recap, I'll start with the passing of my daddy. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last November after becoming ill with a multitude of symptoms (almost all of which he kept to himself). Because of his age and overall health, surgery was not an option. And knowing that the devastating side effects of chemo and radiation would only hasten the inevitable, dad chose to be cared for at home. The man who throughout the years taught me important things like how to connect with people through conversation (he never met a stranger), how to rake and burn a big pile of leaves without catching the neighborhood on fire, and how to back up a 24 foot U-Haul truck with a car hitch attached to the back without running someone over, also taught me about how to listen to and take care of someone I love who I know is dying. Until his last breath in the very early hours of the morning on June 8th, I learned from him how to be a better person. Lordy, but I loved having him in my life…
On the Work Front
We finally developed our GPL Park! We've only been dreaming about it since 2008. But after a series of successful grants and increased public interest this past year, we were able to get a sidewalk, security lighting, sod, raised planting beds, benches and a gazebo. I had trees and shrubs delivered this morning…
Our library hosted the annual state library convention in April. This was a noteworthy achievement for the GPL considering Gadsden doesn't have a convention center. We were only able to pull the whole thing off with the help of every single GPL staff member working their fingers to the bone, and almost every local downtown partner loaning us space for events and breakout sessions. 400+ librarians, vendors and authors converged on Gadsden for three days. We survived. It was marvelous.
We are about to join forces with friend and educator Chip Rowan to bring his Beautiful Rainbow Catering Company & Garden into the library as a permanent partner in our cafe. Chip works with young adults with cognitive disabilities, teaching culinary and business skills for future employment. He is currently working through the Gadsden City School system, but hopes to one day become an independent employer of some of his graduates. We are renovating our existing café to hold an educational kitchen, a dining area for guests, a classroom/boardroom for additional learning, and an office for the day-to-day transactions of running a café/catering company. Because Chip and his guys currently grow much of the food they use in their catering jobs, we have agreed to turn over all eight of our raised planting beds that are located in our GPL Park to the Company. These young chefs-in-training have catered several events for us this year. They are excited about the amazing food that they create, and are just as excited about sharing it with our community. I am looking forward to spending my lunch time in their café come January of 2017!
The final event in our Gadsden Reads is this Tuesday. With the help of attorney Bryan Stevenson and his Equal Justice Initiative of Montgomery, we are dedicating a memorial to Bunk Richardson, a man wrongly lynched here in 1906. This all came about through our choosing of Stevenson's book Just Mercy for our 2016 reading initiative which set into motion a community-wide discussion of the justice system as it pertains to ethnicity, mental health, socioeconomics, gender, and age. We are now openly talking about our local history of marginalizing certain groups within our community. It has not been an easy series of programs. Some folks are happy to finally be heard. Others question why we're "stirring things up." It's just shameful and wrong to keep sweeping these things under the rug.
On the Home Front
2016 was another DIY year for us. I spent a great deal of time staining and painting the rafters and ceiling of the patio Eric built back in 2015. We ripped out the dropped ceiling of laundry room to expose the old beadboard that was hidden underneath. Eric built a sliding barn door to close off the laundry from the kitchen should we ever need to. We added buried electrical out to the garage for a security system. And after a lifetime of using ice cube trays, I have an icemaker in my fridge. Eric installed it I'm sure because of some deep desire to provide ice cubes for his wife and dog. As much as I am enjoying the ice, it still seems unnatural to have so much at my disposal.
Wishing you a wonderful holiday and much love,

And it seems the sounds of Trash Talk have recently been heard outwith the world of punk music as well. There was some amount of remarks to be made about the band's recent decision to sign with Odd Future Records for the recording of their latest offering 119 making them the first band on the label that wasn't a member of the critically acclaimed hip hop group of the same name as well as being the first proper rock band on the label. I mean, it raised a lot of questions. Would the band lose their punk fury in favour of a more alternative and hip hop based direction?
Well actually, having gained a reputation for being one of the most ferocious hardcore bands of modern times, it really does seem like Trash Talk are looking to hold on to that. You can hear it throughout the album, from the opening rush of brutality that comes with Eat the Cycle with it's rough production that gives any listener the impression of having their face turned on it's side and being dragged along a path of grit. Truly the stuff dreams are made of.
And with the rush of songs that come lasting an average of a minute and a half in length, you have more than enough time to get behind the spread of fear, anger and built up intensity that the band have on offer. From the poundings of Uncivil and Thanks But No Thanks to the bigger built Fuck Nostalgia and Apathy which carry a spirit of old school punk rock and rock and roll about them amongst the brutality, there's no time wasted in creating as much intense shredding and beatdowns as they possibly can.
To prove themselves as one of the best names in hardcore today, songs like these would be enough but more on offer, Trash Talk do answer the question of whether a newer hip hop direction has been taken in the form of Blossom & Bloom, the album's longest song at two minutes and thirty seconds. It's the slowest most doom laden performance on the album with an opening more reminiscent of Electric Wizard than Bad Brains and with guest performances from Odd Future members Hodgy Beats and OF mainman Tyler, The Creator that proves the unconventional sense of fear and intensity they put into their own off the wall hip hop songs works just as well in a riff laden context, it's a song that proves how dynamic the results of bringing heavy rock and intense rap music can be like it's Public Enemy and Anthrax all over again.
So, with a highly destructive follow up to the album that gave them a reputation of a band to keep your wits about you when listening to, Trash Talk have made an album that can keep them relevant in a time when the band that shakes the world of hardcore changes at a fairly constant rate, often depending on what bands hipsters that have never been to a hardcore show say they're listening to. And the fact that they can keep this hardcore intensity with an accompaniment with some new friends int he world of hip hop, 119 manages to show off the best elements of what both genres of music have in this modern day and age in terms of ferocity and intensity in a time where a lot of big bands show less credentials. And where would we be without someone offering us fear in music?
Trash Talk's 119 is out now via Odd Future Records.

WATERVILLE — A winter storm jump-started the cross-country ski season at Quarry Road Recreation Area on Friday, but the park will soon be snow-covered every winter regardless of fickle weather patterns.
The city is putting the final touches on its new $385,000 snowmaking system, which could be operational as early as mid-January, said Parks and Recreation Director Matt Skehan. Workers are installing a pump that will draw water from Messalonskee Stream and send it through snowmaking jets placed around a 3-kilometer loop trail at the southern end of the park. The reliable source of snow should also help with the city's annual Winter Carnival in February, which was canceled last year because of a lack of the white stuff.
"It's a big deal for Waterville. It's very unique," Skehan said of the snowmaking.
The project began last year when the city accepted a $385,000 grant from the Harold Alfond Foundation to buy the snowmaking equipment. The grant does not cover the annual operating budget for snowmaking , which is estimated between $20,000 and $30,000.
The city hopes that money will be raised by trail users, Skehan said. The non-profit group Friends of Quarry Road is selling "support stickers" — bronze stickers for $20, silver for $50 and gold for $100.
So far the group has raised about $8,000, said Skehan, who is also a member of the group's board.
"We're hopeful that this (voluntary) system works," he said. "Any facility that has as many trails as we have, that grooms them seven days a week, also has a mandatory fee."
The park has several interconnecting loop trails for a total of 10 kilometers, including a competitive loop and a sprint loop that is used for Colby College ski competitions.
On Friday afternoon, Waterville resident Molly Duren was putting on her ski boots, getting ready for her first outing of the season. The trail system is impressive, she said.
"I lived out in the country for years, but now that I live in the town, I've got some of the best skiing there is. I'm very pleased," she said.
Duren said she has used the trails sporadically in the past, depending on the snow cover. With the addition of snowmaking guns this season, Duren said she'll probably use the trails more often.
"I think it's wonderful," she said.
Mike Curran, a resident of Skowhegan, was skiing Friday along a freshly groomed trail under a bluebird sky.
"It's great," he said of the terrain. "There's nothing too dangerous or steep, but there's enough challenge and variety."
Curran visits Quarry Road more often in the summer for mountain biking, but he skis the trails a few times a year whenever the weather cooperates. He'd be more likely to visit the recreation area during winter months if the city added a terrain park for skiers and snowboarders, so he could bring his kids.
Skehan said anything could happen.
"This project has evolved in different ways over the past five years. We're definitely not ruling anything out. If there's a call for it and a fundraising plan, who knows?"

An essay on Democratic Parliamentarianism by the most eminent Burke noted that it is as mandatory for each, once elected, to realize their new role as taking precedence over the demands of the isolated groups of constituents whose vote may have put them into office—a simple extension of the axiom-the whole being greater than the part.
Mr Manning needless to say, you have fallen short as a Parliamentarian, Leader and Politician and history will accurately record the facts.
Your terms in office have been analysed as an 'obsessional hatred for Indians'. This is not mere race talk as you may call it but the policy you have used to hold on to power .
Your greatest honour has been and will always be your ability to spread hate and divide people using race, religion. affirmative. ethnic preference .social programmes, guises of Caribbean integration, housing and education just for the purpose of personalized power.
The question is do you really care?
You will recall that, when Robinson won election, he said no witch hunting, when Panday won election, he said no witch hunting. Even the most honoured Obama has made friends with his opponents empowering them. But no, you have had an enduring fight against everything Indian:
You have closed down The Sugar Industry with promises of land and houses which never materialized.
You have hounded Sat Sharma and Panday out of Office and continue to do so.
You have devised a housing programme and social programmes that benefit only one sector of the population i.e. your supporters.
You have pursued frolics of your own without the support of the people-Caribbean integration, your mansion, your construction drive and it was inevitable that such enterprises will cost the country.
Now you are ordering your Ministers and their paid supporters to go to African areas to deal with flooding, where flooding has been endemic in Indian areas without a drum heard but criticisms of Indians lying about losing their products.
We are now seeing the beginning of the end Manning and one wonders if you have made plans to migrate like the many Indo-Trinidadians that you have hounded out of the country.
The psychologist believes Mr Manning that you hate Indians because you really love them and want to be like them but since you cannot be like them you punish them.
This developed from your early days at Presentation college in San Fernando where you were never in the top of the class or privileged and felt so hurt and frustrated that you developed an inferiority complex and blamed Indians for your misfortune. Hitler had similar experiences against Jews.
This will also explain why you hate powerful African men and surround your self with weak Indian and mixed persons and women without mamillary or testicular fortitudes.
They will do anything for you because their lifes are so empty that they don't mind doing your bidding.
I feel sorry for you Manning and it is a pity that 'monkey cyar see he own tail'- no pun intended but for one moment what you are doing is tantamount to genocide of an entire race and someone is looking. The tears that Indians shed have never fell on barren soil.
The Rum Shop Philosopher.

So you saying to stay in power he has to have an absessional hatred of Indians, but what if the tables turn, and it soon will, and he has to have an obsessional love of Indians to stay in power? What he go do? So you see when you so power drunk, you go love anybody to stay in power - not everything racial man!

Mirindi Euprazi was at home with her family when the rebels attacked. They broke into her home and took all her possessions, before torturing her, her husband and their teenage children. Then the horror began.
"They forced my son to have sex with me, and when he'd finished they killed him. Then they raped me in front of my husband and then they killed him too. Then they took away my three daughters." She hasn't heard of the three girls, 13, 14 and 17, since. A small woman, she speaks softly and without visible emotion, but as she describes being left naked while her house burned, she raises a hand to cover her face.
Euprazi, 50, lives in the village of Ninja, in the Walungu region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, close to Rwanda's western border. Today, Ninja is a village almost exclusively of women and children. Most of the husbands have been killed, either by Interahamwe - the Hutu militias responsible for the 1984 Rwandan genocide who then fled over the border into the forests of eastern Congo - or by Tutsi rebels led by General Laurent Nkunda. Almost every woman here has been raped, some countless times. Some have been so badly injured by repeated rapes by different militias that they are barely able to stand. Many of their children were conceived through rape.
The plight of the women of Walungu has been documented in remarkable video footage obtained by a Congo-born nurse and featured in a Guardian film.

Victims ID killer/rapist's body
By Nalinee Seelal Friday, December 5 2008
Look at the faces of these murdering niggers!!!
The arrests of a 23-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman, as well as the positive identification of a 19-year-old male suspect, killed in a shootout with the police on Tuesday, is being seen as a breakthrough by the police in their investigations into a series of murders, rapes and other serious crimes committed between Port-of-Spain and El Dorado.
One of these crimes was the murder of Renicha Richards, 22, and the attempted murder of her cousin Iyana Camphbell, 19. The two were shot at Mt Hope on October 19. Richards died from her injuries at hospital at the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex, Mt Hope while Camphbell survived.
The 23-year-old man, Keston Allen, alias "Chucky", appeared before a Tunapuna magistrate yesterday charged with the murder of Richards and the attempted murder of Campbhell.
As Allen made his appearance in court, the body of Justin Joseph, 19, was being viewed at the Forensic Science Centre, St James, by eyewitnesses who identified Joseph as also being involved in the murder of Richards and two other murders; that of Phillip Garcia, 27, of Petit Bourg, on June 29, and Deon "Ratty" Simon, 26, of Tobago, on November 21.
A woman suspect will be placed on an identification parade today also in connection with the shooting of Richards, a hairdresser from San Juan, and Camphbell, and for other serious crimes which took place on the East/West Corridor.
Acting Police Commissioner James Philbert yesterday commended the officers who took part in the investigations of the three murders.

Otherwise you may feel frustration to play these games.
The reason that you should take a look at a Joana's Star - Craft 2 guide review is obvious. You must, however, practice auto-rotations at the flying field with the help of an instructor. Initially, it took a little while to go through the manuals and understand how it works, but once that was done, it was a breeze. If you are looking for a fun way to spend your weekends, aflight simulator games is one of the most fun things to have.

Ready to Read: Six Skills & Five Practices
Six Skills
There are six early literacy skills that children must have in order to be ready to read by the time he or she enters Kindergarten. These skills are:
Print Motivation: Your child's interest in and enjoyment of books.
Letter Knowledge: Learning to name letters, knowing letters have sounds, and recognizing letters everywhere.
Narrative Skills: The ability to describe things and events and to tell stories.
Print Awareness: Noticing print everywhere; knowing how to handle a book and how to follow written word on a page.
Phonological Awareness: The ability to hear and play with the smaller sounds in words.
Vocabulary: Knowing the names of things.
The names of these skills might make them sound difficult, but don't be discouraged. These skills can be taught by using five very simple practices that you can do with your child every day.
Five Practices
Talking: Children learn about language by listening to other people talk and joining in the conversation.
Singing: Because of their rhyme and rhythm, songs are a natural way to learn about language.
Reading: Reading and sharing books with your child is the single most important way to get them ready to read.
Writing: Reading and writing naturally go together. Writing is anything from making marks to drawing pictures and finally writing letters.
Playing: Pretend and dramatic play are fun ways to develop language skills.
Remember, you are your child's best teacher.

Remember I mentioned some blogs back I always wished I had a lemon tree?
The lemon is such a useful fruit.
I like to always have a couple at home so that I can have some lemon juice in my tea or to go with honey.
And I usually end up using the whole fruit, including the skin of the lemon.
The peel of the lemon contains two top layers; the zest, and the pith. The zest is the oil rich outer skin of a lemon and is yellow and textured. The volatile oils in the zest make it extremely flavorful. The pith is the white part below the zest and taste bitter.
Lemon zest can be used to add a lemony flavor to baked goodies. The natural oils in the zest is released through the baking process, infusing the food with flavor. Lemon zest can also be used as a food seasoning, for example, in a baked chicken or a salad dressing, or it can be added to various mixed drinks and beverages. Lemon zest blended with lemon juice, sugar syrup and plenty of ice makes a super refreshing drink.
But there are lots that you can do with a lemon, besides using it for cooking or in a drink.
After I squeeze out the juice of a lemon, I will usually make use of the lemon to do some cleaning.
Popping the cut and juiced lemon into the microwave for 10 to 20 seconds can help get rid of strange smells in the microwave. I'd then use the lemon to rub my stainless steel pots or kitchen sink to give them a good shine. You can also use them to scrub your bathroom tiles and sink. Sometimes, I'd throw the lemon whilst it is hot into an empty garbage bin to get rid of strange smells in the bin.
Lemon zest and hot water can be used to remove coffee/ tea stains from mugs. Just put the lemon zest in the mugs and fill up with hot water. Wash the mugs, with some salt for stubborn stains, after 2-3 hours.
I know of people who use lemons in the bathroom to whiten their teeth (lemon plus baking soda), clean their elbows (rub and wash off) and also use it as a facial mask (lemon with honey).
I usually prefer using lemons to clean my house though. It's green and makes your house smells great.

My poem 'Refuge is a Taxi' was recently included in a Patrician Press anthology entitled 'Refugees and Peacekeepers'. Thanks to Amazon's 'Look inside' facility, you can read my poem in its entirety here, immediately after Anna Johnson's introduction.
It was inspired by a real person — someone who ran away from the horrors of war to start fresh in the UK. The media often casts refugees in a negative light, but I hope this poem will help in a small, positive way to redress the balance.

Complain about work: check and check. This one just came naturally to me. By this age, most people are just getting into this. I've been going strong for years.
Complain about aching joints/back. I just started to get into this, but I now vow to put more effort into it. The little I have dabbled in this, it's been fun. It's a good outlet, and as an added bonus, it's very annoying to those around you when you do it. I don't see any downside to this. With any luck, I can throw my back out, and then no one will hear the end of it. I'm pretty excited about the idea.
Act mature and grown up. Check, check, and triple check. I mean, people have been complimenting me on my maturity, adulthood, prime of life, ripeness, mellowness and development for years (Sometimes using the synonym feature in Word gives you interesting results...). When you look up maturity on wikipedia, it just shows my picture (provided you look within the next 10 seconds before it gets changed back to a less true definition).
Clear cut and to the point, you can always trust wikipedia. Just like you can always trust everything said on this blog (with possible exception to things said in the comments).
Reminisce about the good ol' days. I don't know if this task actually falls into the responsibilities of my age group, but I'm willing to take it up just in case. Man, things were good back then. So much better than now. And have I told you how much better the cartoons were when I was young?
Yup, that's right, I'd definitely say I earned this.

Henry Schein Dental marketing group arms 800 sales reps with iPad solution created with the FileMaker Platform
Dental division of Fortune 500 company delivers product information on iPads to improve sales productivity and customer responsiveness
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – February 26, 2013 – Over the last 80 years, Henry Schein Dental has reinvented itself to meet customer needs, taking advantage of technology breakthroughs and tapping into burgeoning markets. Today, the FileMaker Platform is helping the Fortune 500 company showcase its products with a custom sales-literature solution running on iPads in the hands of 800 sales consultants.
Instead of requiring their customer-facing representatives to carry volumes of printed sales materials on everything from overhead lights to X-ray equipment, the Schein's marketing group created a custom solution using FileMaker Pro 12. The solution runs on FileMaker Go for iPad, a free app on the iTunes App Store.
Already, 800 Field Sales Consultants are equipped with iPads and are more productive and successful. They can:
- Search through thumbnails of literature
- Pull up pertinent brochures or other materials
- Order a PDF or print version and deliver personalized, "just-in-time" sales materials to customers on the spot
- Significantly improve speed of customer communication and knowledge of available sales tools
On the back end, FileMaker Server 12 tracks quantities of sales materials to see exactly what needs to be printed, potentially saving tens of thousands of dollars previously wasted on overstocked, never-used brochures. Warehouse workers are delivered literature requests and can immediately ship out information to customers. Marketing staff track status from their desktops, and ensure the right products with the right descriptions are in the system.
With a PHP-based FileMaker solution, Henry Schein Dental delivers the same custom literature solution to another 400 Field Sales Consultants who choose to use a web browser on their desktops and laptops.

Hamilton firefighters spent more than two hours at a downtown gas station on Monday morning to make sure a job to empty gasoline tanks was done safely.
The Hamilton Fire Department was called to Hamilton Convenience Store at 178 Bay Road at 8:53 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 14
A tank removal company was emptying the gasoline tanks so the tanks could be replaced, but 500 gallons of gasoline that had been removed was put in barrels next to the building.
That created an unsafe condition and the station was ordered to have the barrels removed, according to Fire Chief Philip Stevens Jr. A gasoline truck arrived by 10:16 a.m., he said.
Hamilton firefighters stood by until the hazard was rectified at 11:21 a.m., Stevens said.

|Recall Release
Congressional and Public Affairs
(202) 720-9113
Laura Reiser
WASHINGTON, Aug 10, 2008 – Palama Holdings, LLC, a Kapolei, Hawaii, establishment, is recalling approximately 4,535 pounds of fully cooked pork products because they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced today.
The following product is subject to recall: [View Label]
- 16-oz. bags of "MAY'S HAWAII KALUA BRAND PORK (WITH UP TO TWELVE PERCENT SOLUTION ADDED), FULLY COOKED, SMOKE FLAVOR ADDED." Each bag bears the establishment number "EST. 11077" inside the USDA mark of inspection, as well as a freeze-by date of "9/17/08" or "9/20/08." These 16-oz. bags available for retail purchase are distributed in packages of three, which are shipped in cases of 15 packages each. Each case is labeled "MAY'S KALUA BRAND PORK, 15 PACKAGES/3 LB EACH" and bears the case code "325466."
- 10-pound cases of "MAY'S KALUA BRAND PORK." Each case bears the establishment number "EST. 11077" inside the USDA mark of inspection as well as a date code "21708" and a case code "325469." Each case contains two 5-pound packages intended for food service use.
The pork products were produced on Aug. 4 and Aug. 7, 2008, and were distributed to food service and retail establishments in Hawaii to the islands of Hawaii, Kauai, Maui and Oahu.
The problem was discovered by FSIS routine microbiological testing. FSIS has received no reports of illness associated with consumption of this product. Anyone with signs or symptoms of foodborne illness should consult a medical professional.
Consumption of food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, an uncommon but potentially fatal disease. Healthy people rarely contract listeriosis. However, listeriosis can cause miscarriages and stillbirths, and can also cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in those with weak immune systems, such as infants, the elderly, and persons with HIV infection or undergoing chemotherapy. Infection can spread to the nervous system, resulting in high fever, severe headache, neck stiffness, nausea, confusion and convulsions.
Media with questions about the recall should call company Chief Executive Officer Bill Loose at (808) 682-8362. Consumers with questions about the recall should call company Vice President of Sales Lionel Yokoyama at (808) 682-8368.

Stay home Lassie!
Dog owners - leave your dogs home when you go out in your vehicle. I doubt very much that dogs want to stay cooped up in your vehicle, or tied up to a post outside a store or whatever. Especially when it's very hot outside. Another thing that bugs me is dogs in the back of pickup trucks. They're flailing around as you careen around corners. It's a wonder they don't go flying off the truck (or maybe sometimes they do). Sometimes I see this when it's freezing cold and the poor barker is trying to stay warm. You wouldn't do this to a child, so why is it OK for a dog (or any other pet)?
I just don't get it.
2 comments:
Karl I agree I think it's pretty bloody shitty of people to leave dogs in pick ups and cars.. :( poor dogs.. I think that there should be a law against it.
- Sheri said...
Hi Karl- We take our little dog Mickey with us sometimes when we are running errands. He loves to go for truck rides (we drive an SUV) and look out the windows (of course the doggie boogers all over the windows prove this) We don't take him along if we're going to be out of the truck for any length of time nor do we take him when the weather is exreme, either hot or cold. I agree with you regarding people who put their little pets in the back of a pick-up truck. How are they going to feel when Rover jumps/flies out of the truck? It's all about being a responsible pet owner. They (dogs) enjoy the excursion, but it shouldn't be at the risk of their health.

PA Gov. Tom Corbett Says He'd Like To Hire Latinos -- He Just Can't Find Any
Perhaps he didn't see it coming, but Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett's quickly discovered how an apparently passing comment can blow up in a politician's face.
Corbett, a Republican seeking re-election spoke about the difficulty of finding qualified Latinos to put on his staff.
Asked at a political forum by Spanish-language newspaper, Al Dia News, about Latinos on his staff, the governor said: "We do not have any staff members in there. If you can find us one, please let me know."
When the moderator, the paper's managing editor, Sabrina Vourvoulias, responded to his request for potential staffers by saying "I am sure that there are Latinos that ..." Corbett cut her off.
"Do any of you want to come to Harrisburg?" Corbett asked.
Once word about the Republican's comment spread days later, Latinos and Democratic leaders expressed anger and exasperation.
Philadelphia attorney and former judge Nelson Diaz was quoted in the Philadelphia Inquirer as saying that the comment reminded him of GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney's "binders full of women" comment during one of last year's presidential debates.
"It shows a lack of respect for the Latino Community," Diaz said.
Corbett has come out in defense of his comment, saying Wednesday that it had been taken out of context on purpose to hurt him politically.
Corbett spokesman Kevin Harley said the governor has appointed numerous Latinos, including former Health Secretary Eli Avila. The others he listed were Maria Montero, who heads the Governor's Advisory Commission on Latino Affairs, and Ken Trujillo, who he unsuccessfully nominated to the Liquor Control Board.
Montero did not immediately respond to a request for interview with Fox News Latino left at her office.
At the forum, Corbett also said increasing employment was "in the best interest of every nationality in Pennsylvania." It wasn't clear if he was referring to Latinos as a nationality, though of course the term defines an ethnicity.
"We're in the process of getting much more connected with everybody, that we did not have that relationship before, we're going to fix that," Corbett said.
Latino leaders say there are plenty of qualified members of their community who could serve on the governor's inner staff.
Latino political leaders in the state include Rep. Angel Cruz, Allentown Council member Julio Guridy and Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas Judge Nitza I. Quiñones-Alejandro.
Some Latinos in Corbett's own party took issue with his comment.
One of them, GOP analyst Ana Navarro, who was Sen. John McCain's national Hispanic Co-Chair for his 2008 presidential campaign, tweeted on Wednesday: "HISPANICS WANTED: if ur Hispanic or know 1 looking for a job & able to live in Harrisburg, PA, call Gov Corbett."
Pennsylvania's Hispanic population has mushroomed in the last decade, standing at almost 1 million, according to the 2010 Census.
"The state would have lost an electoral college seat without the growth," said Diaz, the former lawyer and current judge. "Doesn't he realize this?"
U.S. Rep. Allyson Schwartz, one of several Democrats lining up to seek the nomination to run against Corbett next year, responded by saying a governor should set of tone of diversity with people of all backgrounds.
"Making excuses isn't leadership," Schwartz said. "Sadly, this kind of excuse is what we've come to expect from Gov. Corbett, and yet again, makes clear why we need a change in Harrisburg."
Corbett's press office did not return a phone message seeking further comment.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

What Is an Optometrist?
Job Description and Career Profile
An optometrist, also called a Doctor of Optometry or O.D. for short, provides primary vision care. He or she diagnoses and treats eye diseases and disorders. If a patient needs vision correction, an optometrist will prescribe eyeglasses or contact lenses.
Some optometrists specialize in a particular clientele, for example, pediatric or geriatric patients, or a type of treatment such as low vision or post-operative care.
Quick Facts
- Optometrists earn a median annual salary of $106,140 (2016).
- Just over 40,00 people work in this field (2016).
- Stand-alone optometry practices employed more than half of them and 8% were self-employed.
- Classified by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as a "Bright Outlook" occupation due to its excellent job outlook, employment is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations between 2016 and 2026.
What Is the Difference Between Optometrists, Ophthalmologists, and Opticians
Other practitioners who provide vision care are ophthalmologists and opticians. Unlike optometrists, ophthalmologists are physicians who can perform eye surgery. After college, they must attend medical school for four years and then complete three to eight years of graduate medical education.
Opticians fit eyeglasses and make adjustments to them. They do not examine eyes, make diagnoses, or treat diseases and conditions, unlike the other two vision specialists.
Some learn their trade through on-the-job training. Others earn an associate degree or certificate by completing post-secondary training at a community college or technical school.
How to Become an Optometrist
If you want to become an optometrist, you must first complete a four-year program at an accredited optometry school.
You will earn a Doctor of Optometry (O.D.) degree. You can find a list of programs accredited by the Accreditation Council on Optometric Education on the American Optometric Association website. Although applicants to schools must have completed only three years of study at an accredited college or university, most have earned, or will shortly receive, a bachelor's degree. Undergraduate coursework should include mathematics, English, chemistry, physics and biology.
Applicants must take an entrance exam called the Optometry Admission Test (OAT) which the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry sponsors. Training combines classroom instruction and clinical experience under the supervision of a licensed optometrist. If you want to specialize in a particular area of practice, you will have to do post-graduate clinical training. This hands-on experience is called a residency.
To practice anywhere in the United States, you must become licensed. In addition to earning an OD degree from an accredited program, you will have to pass the National Boards of Optometry, a four-part exam administered by the National Board of Examiners in Optometry. Some states require passing another exam in addition to this.
Continuing education coursework is usually required to maintain licensure.
What Soft Skills Do You Need to Succeed as an Optometrist?
You will learn the technical aspects of your job through formal training, but you won't learn all the soft skills, or personal qualities, you need to succeed in this field. They are:
- Active Listening: The importance of excellent listening skills cannot be emphasized enough. They will allow you to understand what your patients are telling you so you can respond appropriately.
- Verbal Communication: You will have to convey information to your patients clearly. Stellar speaking skills will make that possible.
- Interpersonal Skills: In addition to strong listening and verbal communication skills, you must be able to "read" your patients' non-verbal signals, as well as persuade and instruct them.
- Critical Thinking and Problem Solving: You must be able to identify problems and then use your critical thinking skills to solve them.
What Will Employers Expect From You?
To find out what requirements employers have, we looked at some actual job announcements on Indeed.com:
- "Basic Life Support certification, preferred"
- "Should be personable and friendly"
- "Must be motivated to be able to work under minimal supervision"
- "Candidates must be used to fast paced, busy environment"
- "Applicants must have flexible availability"

Oh So Pretty: Creative and Colorful Combinations for Container Gardens
By Cindy Naas
Containers are the perfect option for city gardeners since they take up so little room.
Growing vegetables is a good enough reason to container garden, but if you want to make your garden do double duty, here are some ways to make your city garden look as great as the veggies will taste.
These plants and combinations will add a colorful splash to your garden:
1. 'Bright Lights' swiss chard – this is a beautiful plant. The stalks of chard come in orange, red, pink, cream and lavender and make a wonderful backdrop for pots of pansies. One of my favorite containers always has 'Bright Lights', some purple icicle pansies and some trailing green ivy. By the time we've eaten all the chard, it's time to swap out the pansies for some hot weather flowers.
2. Tomatoes and marigolds – the marigold is a great Read the rest of this entry »

Book Review: Let's Pretend This Never Happened
Let's Pretend this Never Happened by Jenny Lawson
This book is hilarious!
If you like David Sedaris or Cheslsea Handler you will love this book!
Why? Because it is also comedic, a memoir, about a crazy-ass dad, mental health issues, life, you know...LOL stuff?
I don't want to give too much away and I am really not interested in writing a wing-baggy review, but I am very happy that I bought this, if only to make me burst out laughing when reading it into the wee hours (and it also helped me address some of my own mental health issues?). It is one of those books you read in two days because every spare chance you get you want to pick it up and get a hit.
I'm sure you will laugh as well as Jenny takes us on a whirl-wind ride through her ridiculous childhood in rural Texas through to being a mother herself and trying to shield her daughter from rural Texas (and then also realizing, hey, it's not sooooo bad, right?)
Again, I don't even want to give you an anecdote because I want you to read it (and because I'm sure you can get these off the intermabob)
For a bit more of Jenny go see her blog The Bloggess

wing-baggy?? interesting... & did u wake anyone up while laughing at night? ... I do wish this had a reply back option!ReplyDelete
I totally did wake people up--Dallas for one. My kids are used to me cackling at night since there night starts while I am still watching my shows but Dallas is such a light sleeper and wakes up with a start to any sort of stimulus. He was not impressed to be woken up, or by me continuing to make noise by trying to explain the part of the book that made me laugh. Ooops.ReplyDelete

LMRE sends lineman to help restore power following Hurricane Irma
Lorain-Medina Rural Electric Cooperative is sending four linemen and two trucks to assist southern Georgia electric cooperatives in restoring power following the devastating effects of Hurricane Irma.
The four-man crew is expected to Wellington at about 5 a.m. Tuesday and will travel in a bucket truck and derrick-digger about 1,250 miles to assist the southern Georgia cooperatives. It has yet to be determined which electric cooperative they will be assisting.
"One of the guiding principles is cooperation among cooperatives," General Manager Markus Bryant said. "The cooperative network is one big family network. This is quite a commitment for our linemen and we're proud they volunteered. They are leaving behind their family and the comforts of home to help restore power for people they have never met. Providing mutual aid is our opportunity to assist a cooperative in need. We needed assistance in 2005 during the ice storm. You never know when you might need some help."
Ohio Electric Cooperatives are coordinating the mutual aid efforts with 66 linemen from 11 Ohio electric cooperatives to cooperatives in southern Georgia. Conditions are expected to be "Spartan", since there are no motel vacancies. The line crews will likely be sleeping on cots, probably in a garage area. Once they finish helping in Georgia, they may be sent into Florida (or another neighboring state) depending on where they may be needed. Local line crews are expected to be gone for 10 to 14 days.
Access to fuel is one of the biggest concerns for the traveling cooperatives. The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association is working with the Department of Energy and other federal agencies to ensure that cooperatives have access to the resources they need as they work to restore power.

Suppose time-series data has been generated according to the following process:
where t is independent white noise. Our main interest is consistent estimation of Φ from realizations on yt.
1) Provide conditions for this process to be stationary.
2) From hereonout, assume the process is stationary. Will OLS generally provide you with consistent point estimates of ? Can you give conditions under which it will? Provide the asymptotic distribution of OLS under these assumptions.
3) ARMA processes are generally estimated by ML. Do you have enough information to set up the (marginal or conditional) likelihood function?
4) Use the moment conditions under Question 4 to derive a consistent GMM estimator of (; ).
Does it require knowledge of the distribution of t? Note that we discussed asymptotic properties
of GMM estimators assuming a xed amount of moments.

Everyone wants the look of long, lush eyelashes. You have experimented using all of the different mascaras on the market with varying degrees of success. Maybe you have tried false eyelashes or were not happy with how they appear on other women. They look glamorous but it is not the real you. Eyelash enhancing serum and conditioner can give you the glamorous lashes you desire without the hassle of resorting to false eyelashes.
The number of serums on the market boggles the mind. You want to know if they live up to their promises to lengthen and thicken eyelashes and eyebrows. There is a wide range of prices to consider. You want the long, thick lashes of your dreams without straining your budget. It helps to have someone help you by providing comprehensive reviews since you cannot try them all.
Enormous Lash review can help by providing the list of high quality ingredients. This is especially advantageous for those prone to allergic reactions. Those with sensitive skin want to know if the product will be kind to sensitive skin and not cause adverse side effects, such as swelling or redness.
Enormous Eyelash Enhancing Serum and Conditioner is a formula that promises it will lengthen and thicken your lashes naturally. It contains no paraben and prostaglandin and can be used with eyelash extensions. There are no known side effects.
Apply along the upper and lower lash lines like an eyeliner twice a day. The clear, odorless serum can be worn under your regular makeup. It takes 4 to 6 weeks to achieve maximum results. Once achieved, apply once a day or every other day. Once you discontinue use, your eyelashes will revert to their original appearance.
There is a lack of clinical trials and published research. There is a 45 day money back guarantee for all sales in the United States.

Manchester United and Juventus have joined the growing list of potential suitors for wantaway Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko , according to reports in France.
The 26-year-old starred for France during the narrow Euro 2016 final loss to Portugal in Paris on Sunday night but the Magpies are keen to keep hold of Sissoko - and will demand a club-record fee in excess of £35million for their midfielder.
Interestingly, Le 10 Sport claim that it is the future of Paul Pogba which could ultimately decide Sissoko's fate as well.
With Man United boss Jose Mourinho believed to be keen to complete a world-record £100m swoop for Juve's 23-year-old midfielder Pogba, it is suggested that the Italian champions will move for Sissoko as a potential replacement.
What's more, if Man United fail to tempt Pogba to move to Old Trafford - it is claimed that the Frenchman would prefer to join Real Madrid instead - then Mourinho could turn his attentions to Newcastle's Sissoko instead.
Meanwhile, The Mirror report that Liverpool are not interested in signing Sissoko, who has also been linked with a move to Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain.
West Bromwich Albion are keen on Sissoko, but they would be unable to get close to Newcastle's valuation of the midfielder.
Sissoko started Euro 2016 as a substitute for Les Bleus but impressed for the hosts during the knockout stages, and was arguably France's man of the match against Portugal.

Most know me as the author to Fabulosity Reads and in actual fact, that is the previous name of this blog. I have since then moved my books to a Wordpress self-hosted blog so that I can have a place to show a different side of me which I am equally passionate about and that is marketing and personal development. I hope you will love being here, watching me grow as I share and learn. My highest hope is that we will grown and learn together in all disciplines affecting our lives. I'd LUUURRRVE to hear from you, so don't be shy...
Super poem! I am so glad you shared this with us. It has perfect timing and is a great confession from someone accustomed, but apparently sicked of war.ReplyDelete
Moving and intense yet written so more of factly.
I admire him for the courage to write about his inner turmoil and what he believed was the actual truth.
Hey guys thanks for coming by. itso heartbreaking this poem.ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing this, Wendy, It's touching and shows another side to war not often seen.ReplyDelete
Fabulous poem. I actually teared up. And I'm loving that you took pics and posted that. What a fantastic idea!ReplyDelete
I liked that very much - just wars or not, taking a life must take a toll on the spirit. This is also why I'm generally against the death penalty.ReplyDelete
My grandfather was in WW1 and he said that he could never forget the men he killed.ReplyDelete
What sad memories for one to have to live the rest of their life with Susan. we should be so much more supportive and caring of people that come from war because of the demonds they live with.ReplyDelete
sad and unforgetable. thanks for the idea to pic such long writings.ReplyDelete
Wow. Never read this poem before, but glad I read it now. Such a powerful piece of writing.ReplyDelete
Wow. Powerful stuff.
Btw, congrats on your baby girl! Wishing you a safe and healthy pregnancy! ;)
A sad and moving poem for sure. I often wonder about soldiers who kill during the war.ReplyDelete
It is sad but inspirational as well on how to live better.ReplyDelete
I agree with everyone, a moving poem. And what's this I hear about a baby girl?!?!? Time must have flown while I was back in reality land...

This year was the first time I was attending Zambia Fashion Week. I was excited because I love events and nervous because I never know what to wear to these things. I got there and I realized that I shouldn't have been worried at all. However, there were a few things that I noticed that could improve your experience at the Fashion Week. So here are a few tips on how to get the best from Fashion Week.
Wear Red Lipstick
Wear Red lipstick (or any other color) for no other reason than that it will make you feel pretty. I rarely wear makeup even when I'm going out but I decided to wear red lipstick this time. Because I wasn't dressed up, it made me feel just a bit more adult.
Look at the Audience
The best outfits are not just limited to the models on the runway. Some of the audience comes dressed to kill. There are so many interesting outfits and combinations among the people. All you have to do is just look for them. So don't just pay attention to the stage. Look around once in a while, you might find some fashion gems.
Get your phone ready
You're going to want to take a lot of photos of the outfits and we all know you will take loads of selfies. So you need to be prepared for that. Charge your phone till the battery is full before the event. And if you know that your battery has a charge life equivalent to the lifespan of the characters in Game of Thrones, you might want to carry a spare battery.
You also need to make sure your phone has enough storage space. So backup the thousands of selfies in your gallery and erase them because you wouldn't want to run out of space in the middle of all the fun. Plus lack of space slows down the phone and the only thing worse than a slow phone is a slow WiFi.
Don't stick to the final night
Most people just pick the final night of Fashion Week to make an appearance. But I would advise you to also go on the other nights. The designers are all really good and I swear they don't save the best for last. Of course the big names might be on the final night but from what I have seen in so many industries, it's the young and hungry small names that are the most impressive. Besides, tickets to the other nights are cheaper and there is no restriction on seating.
Be Early
The tickets say 6 pm and because we're in Zambia we know the show will start at 7 pm right? Well, yeah the show will start at 7 but if you come late you won't pick the nice seats. Because there is no restriction in the seating plan, if you come early enough you can even sit in the front row for no extra charge.
Carry reinforcements
Zambia Fashion Week in October which is the hottest month in Zambia. So don't assume you will be seated directly under an air-con. Carry a cute little paper fan or something like that to help keep cool. Also If you have eye issues, you might want to carry your glasses with you just in case you need them. The runway is really lit up and you will be starring into the bright light for over 2 hours so your eye-glasses will come in handy.
So that's it. I hope these help you at the next Fashion week you attend or any event for that matter. Do you have anything else that could help? Let me know.
The photo in this post was taken by Fortress Media Photography and you can see more photos of the Zambia fashion Week on their Facebook and Flickr page. Check them out.

A robust, climbing rattan native to mangrove forests from the Malay Peninsula to the Philippines. Its clustering canes are about 6 cm (2.5 in.) in diameter, but their quality for manufacturing is low. Its large leaves with long, pendulous leaflets however would suggest some ornamental value. Best suited to tropical climates it is tolerant of some coastal exposure as well as saline and somewhat waterlogged soils.

If you're self-employed and you have been trying to figure out how to increase your income around wintertime, I want you to give this some serious consideration. If you've ever driven around town from late October to the end of December, you've seen many Christmas lights. Some of the most amazing displays aren't done by your neighbors or the local business owner. Folks have been paying from a few hundred dollars up to as much as several thousand dollars for holiday lighting displays.
There are people making a great income from this at home business. You would have to learn on the job how to operate. You're going need to be familiar with the following:
• Party in holiday lighting
• Mini lights
• LED battery operated lights
• C7 and C9 bulbs
• Net lights
• LED Christmas lights
• 12 V LED lights
• Rope lights
• Icicle lights
• Illuminated Christmas wreaths
• Illuminated Christmas garlands
• Holiday light controllers
• Light clips and hooks
• Lights stakes
• Rope lights
• Sculpted clips for mini lights
• Timers for Christmas lights
• Light repair tools
• Color caps
• Blackout cats
• Assorted electrical plugs
• Electrical cord strippers
• Wire cutters
• Assorted clips for grooves, tile, gutters, fences, trees and shrubs
You're going to be learning how to maneuver safely on a ladder, a roof, in, and around trees. I no longer do the installation myself; I have people that do that for me but when you're just starting out you may have to get on the ladder to get the work done. The work itself is fairly easy and simple; once you get started time passes by fairly quickly.
Getting the work relies on your marketing skills but if you take a few courses offered by holiday lighting experts, you'll quickly learn what works in your field and what doesn't. Take many pictures of your finished work in order to promote yourself. Don't forget the testimonials; they go a long way to getting you the next job.
Let's talk a little bit about the money. Depending on your location, you can average anywhere from $500-$1000 a day as a startup. Learn how to market yourself properly and follow one of the online courses and you may be able to double that next year. This business is not rocket science and can be a heck of a lot of fun.

Climate: Carbon rules for current power plants likely in White House rollout, aide hints
