A Simple Key For rodents Unveiled
Noises stopped, for some time! I have been waking early the past several months and can hear the noises all-around four-5am. It were like just after a week but this 7 days it has been each morning to this point. Any Strategies? You will find there's handful of periods I listen to a vibrating sound like wings it's possible? We've got a drop ceiling inside the space and hubby states no technique to see in there. We only hear the noises in the entrance corner of our down stairs room. No other rooms.
Thanks for reading through. We'll go up to the void (I signify, my HUSBAND might be likely up there) to look around And that i'll Enable you to really know what he finds.... Your website is excellent and gives very good, straightforward data.
My girlfriend is stressing mainly because in her property she's been Listening to noises. Sounding like scratching. In any case this occurs all around 7am, 4pm along with other instances during the day.
Hi David, I am in England. I 1st heard a scratching sound coming with the attic about a 7 days back at midnight and however at about 3am. In the beginning I assumed it absolutely was the neighbour and i was imagining things.
As you live in England I believe These timings counsel birds. Birds, for instance starlings, pigeons and sparrows will usually nest I the eaves of buildings.
''We won't ensure there will not be One more Casey Snake Professional Rick some working day, but we could-decrease the risk.'' Snake Pro Rick, who was eighteen and 7 decades pregnant at time in the accident, was concerning this fifty percent-mile within the animal trapper whose shot hit her. Though critically wounded, the SPCA spokesperson shipped this healthier infant Female two several years later on and it has recovered from her accidents. the SPCA spokesperson filed this civil lawsuit in opposition to the animal trapper and owner in the land where by the pest operator was critter catching. The situation ended final calendar year when Snake Specialist Rick and landowner Daniel Haas agreed to this financial settlement. Chicago pest control companies that we contacted felt this difficulty must be an important make a difference.
The roof is concrete. We do have two significant mango trees for the side of your home. From time to time you will discover ripe mangoes eaten out which have fallen to the ground.
And closed it up with metal wool and bitter-style foam sealant. Nothing has messed with it given that. I do know its NOT plumbing, as continues to be advised as well. No, plumbing doesnt quit making sound whenever you stomp on the region They are really earning noise and shift to a different location and begin their noises there. Plumbing doesnt chew holes during the wall and plumbing surely doesnt skitter through the ceiling, earlier mentioned my head! Yeah, go to this website our wildlife specialists is even stumped at this stage and recommended this. It pissed off ME to no stop though, as you can see by my reply to him! I produced an audio tape for him too, as asked. You could hear all the noises on it and I was ready to confirm where each was coming from though Hearing the recording play again. Im the only real one particular who is usually that common. And that actually just isn't a superb factor. Im wore out by this! Again heres the record. Im wanting to be comprehensive in this article, but, have an understanding of Im likely without A great deal sleep as well and kinda wigged out on the though A thing is gonna pop its unsightly head up thru my flooring at me, Anytime too! NOT a fantastic feeling. Ongoing beneath.
Nashville is home to eleven broadcast tv stations, Even though most homes are served by immediate cable network connections. Comcast Cable has a monopoly on terrestrial cable provider in Davidson County (but not all over the whole media industry).
I also sense like whatever is up there scratches the roof, but for very little intervals. I have not heard any sound of birds, like birds noises or rats gnawing... that makes me much more nervous. We do not have neither pet dogs nor cats and it could even check here be incredibly hard for your cat to go as many as our 3rd floor.
We make the effort to effectively look after our feeder mice, feeding them a scientifically designed eating plan to make certain their quality and dimensions.
Aspect three here: Meanwhile, Im Nevertheless Listening to them in my partitions! And I'll listen to 5 Diverse places without delay in some cases. Sounds like gentle knocking, at times I listen to what probably appears like chewing, Ive read anything scratching alone just before, Ive listened to tiny pitter pats higher than my head in ceiling...and NOW a days, I listen to them Far more during the day! Its at a fever pitch in between 9am (really starts off loud) and 6:30pm! Now, during the night time, its very silent. I believed maybe, The main reason for that is definitely that they are going OUT with the walls at nightfall, seeking foodstuff, coming back in the morning to snooze. But! When are they At any time sleeping!? Im Listening to them ALL working day. And yeah, they do seem to decelerate some hours and slumber (trigger I am able to even now hear them in there, at times going close to) concerning like one and 4pm. But Im just SO puzzled! I DO know prior to he caught that very little mouse, we DID have anything chew a small hole in my Bed room wall, in close proximity to the ground. Im Often examining the floors/partitions currently being confident Practically my site nothing new has occurred, so I caught this the identical day it/they did it.
Thanks David, the trees aren't shut ample to get The main reason so must be rodents. Read scratching and scurrying again this morning at about eight.45am as I was leaving for function so I'll get anyone brave enough to take a look for me! Thanks in your assistance.
For the final two nights I are actually Listening to scratching inside of a prime corner of my bedroom, vaulted ceiling. Its at the highest corner of an exterior wall. The scratching audio is listened to in the evening when I go to bed about eight-9pm and carries on until eventually I drop asleep. I climbed in addition to my nightstand to pay attention extra intently and it sounds like scratching or gnawing on wood. I have not nonetheless heard any animal audio like squeaking or otherwise. Once i knock to the ceiling and region round the corner, the scratching seem even now proceeds without pausing.

By Chelsea Tjornhom, Senior Fitness Specialist
Competitive, self-critical and irritable are three words I would have used to describe myself two years ago. I am a cookie cutter type A personality and although these characteristics used to be my weaknesses, gratitude has transformed them into my top strengths.
Two years ago, I had just graduated college and was trying to find my way. My identity from a college student and a dancer shifted and led me to feel uneasy and extremely moody. I criticized myself for not being able to get a job as quickly as my friends and I even started to criticize my body. I was looking for a sense of control and a sense of security. I felt unsettled and unhappy.
I knew I needed help and after talking to a friend, I was introduced to the practice of gratitude. My friend mentioned how she took two minutes each day to think about what she was thankful for. I thought "two minutes, I can do that!" I started waking up each morning and before getting out of bed, I made a mental list of what I was grateful for. The hardest part was setting the snooze button and choosing to sleep over giving thanks. After committing for several months, however, I found myself habitually practicing gratitude and the results were worth it!
I found that on the days I practiced gratitude, I experienced:
- More joy in even the littlest things i.e. my coffee, my scenery while driving or a smile from a coworker
- Increased self-worth and self esteem
- Self-forgiveness
- Resistance to stress and toxic/negative emotions
- Acceptance
- Being present
So much of our society yearns for more and looks to the future but after practicing gratitude for the past two years, I have never felt more contempt with my life. I accept all of life, the good and the bad. I see each day as a gift, enjoying the good and seeing the bad as learning experiences. Although gratitude has not changed my type A personality completely, it has brought awareness to my personality traits. I use my competitive nature to push myself to be the best version of myself. This includes noticing when I am being too self-critical or negative and instead looking at my positive qualities with acceptance and love. Gratitude has also shifted my mood. I find myself less irritable and more joyful. There are still days I can get crabby and I know I am human. Gratitude, however, reminds me that each day is a fresh start and that I have so much to be thankful for!

Going back to the start of the order of Assassin's has been a long time coming. To see it go so far back is both strange, wonderful and brings a new period of history to our consoles. Egypt, under the Ptolemy's, was a melting pot of different cultures, languages and knowledge. To have it brought so vibrantly to our screens took time and seems to be time well spent.
What marks this game and where it's built is the chapters its broken up into. Like previous entries, you are given a set of objectives, a short self-contained story to work your way through. Some are quite direct and violent, the hall mark of any game marked Assassin's Creed. However, many of the side quests show off Egypt and its daily life. They might be small tasks, but they are the life of the Medjay, your avatar and character now.
Bayek is not alone in his quest for vengeance. Perhaps the first to have an obvious partner in Aya. Both work towards their goal, to avenge the loss of their son. From masked figures to be identified defeated, the core of this series is as strong as ever. This time with another setting and perhaps the deepest crafted of the lot. Egypt and its rituals are shown in great depth, from the living, performances to celebrate the gods, to the passage of the living to the dead.
Also this is easily the closest to a RPG of the games so far. Now with a clear levelling system, giving you points to spend to unlock new abilities. From bonuses to EXP for specific type of kills to new attacks, ones that can break shields, mastery of your bows and more. Even to unlock the ability to buy war chariots and have them as your mount. With three trees to fill out, you have plenty of freedom to decide what is important to you, in your next quest, mission. In your exploration of the world at large.
A new class of equipment now joins the other weapons you can choose. Finally shields have been introduced to the game. These aren't the heater, kite or jousting shields of medieval times, but round shields, generally painted with ornate designs. Spears, khopesh and bows are some of the other weapons you will encounter. Some give you range, to dominate groups, control the engagement. Bows come in a number of forms, one a hard hitter. Another is rapid fire, multiple shots at once is also present. The generalist hunting bow remains a favourite for me, a good mix of all the others.
Combat has been the most shaken up since the last entry. Blocking is simple to do, parrying a challenge. Further abilities give you the ability to combo your attacks, breaking heavy shields and allowing longer chains of hits. Learning to dance between your foes, to close in with those with shields and bows and to keep distance from those with swords. Seeing the difference just between the curved, sickle swords and the straight blades, khopesh and spatha, is refreshing. Different weapons have clearly different animations.
Audio and Visuals
Egypt is a land of contradictions, full of colour, large open vistas and closed, dense cities. From the greenery that hugs the Nile to the cities, bright and vibrant, it doesn't take long to see something new, something different, to change your environment. Open deserts, proud moments, obelisks, temples and more await. There's so much to look at it can be hard to work out what is worthy of study. Yet, despite all of this, the prompts are obvious and in your face. To know when to dodge and when to parry, comes easily. Navigating is easy and finding your way around is easier than I found the other entries in Unity and Syndicate.
Not only is the world so detailed, the characters are too, Bayek and Aya are detailed, living people. So too are the many unnamed people who live in the towns and villages. You can tell the Greek from the Egyptian, even Roman. Enemies were obvious tunics and armour to set them apart. Shields are decorated with vibrant paintings, markings. Not only that, weapons are easy to identify, those made of iron, to those of copper and bronze.
Like the others in the series, there's something in the music, for me. It doesn't just set the tone, but tells you where you are. This is definitely true here. In my current wonderings I know when I'm in the desert, in the city, in the oasis and in the tombs. Not only that I want to credit the voice actors here as well. They have a certain feel, sound, of the region that makes them fit so much better, keeps me lost in the game and its characters.
For me, thankfully the online PvP multiplayer has been removed from the series. It's a return to form that I do welcome. As well, while there are some online aspects, I've not found them at all to be intrusive.
There's not much to complain about here. Simply said, this is the best of the lessons learned and put into the previous series, given free rein to be explored as you see fit. I constantly flitted between side quests and exploration, wondering what's around the next corner. If there are complaints, is that I do have it doesn't seem to be entirely free of bugs. I also dislike the level range for the areas. I felt that it was there to force me to level up, to direct me, without good purpose or reason. That I couldn't be trusted to explore as I wished. Those, however, are minor nitpicks next to everything else this game gets so very right.
Historical Notes
Egypt is a land of history that goes back to before the written word. A place of water, famine and feasts. A place of floods, where the Nile is the heart and artery of it. To see it so bright, so vibrant, full of colour and greenery is amazing. To see the temples so much closer to their prime is something I wish I could now, in this world. Even the pyramids are so much cleaner, brighter, more beautiful, landmarks for the living and the dead.
This game shows an Egypt between two worlds, the introduction of the Greek influence, under the Ptolemy's, from the greater army of Alexander the Great. Even little details in the design, artistic style of the statues is true to history. Not only that, some of the weapons match perfectly to their historical counterparts. Khopesh, spears, bows, all of in the art I know. Chariots are common, all of the creatures seen of the Nile.
With so much being known about Egypt, during this time, prior to its inclusion in the greater Roman empire, it would be hard to do all of that history respect, honour. To include the finer details of the different gods and goddesses. Yet, here I was surprised to hear talk of duat, to have your heart measured against a feather. I also heard the many platitudes, towards Horus, Sekhmet, Sobek, Anubis. Not only that, to see part of the mummification process, of drying in salt, so open, so visible, was refreshing. Not only refreshing, but so very true to the period and people. Life existed after death, that to be prepared for it correctly was important. To be ready and to have no worldly concerns, that all was taken care of, a duty.
Again, the series should be praised for its dedication to presenting the eras it chosen so deeply. While I might not care for Victorian England, Revolution France, the Enlightenment, Renaissance, take your pick, here it so wonderfully brought to life that it is hard not to get lost exploring a village, oasis, more. To study the people, their clothes and items, even in the tombs themselves. There's a real, living world out there for you to explore and I hope you can find the depth, honesty towards history that I do.

Valentines's Day is for sure one of my favorite celebrations. It's the day when we go all out and make the ones we love feel extra special. All the red & pink, chocolates, roses and the perfect outfits! I seriously get all giddy just thinking about it. But shouldn't we feel this excited to celebrate love every single day?
These two here celebrate their love for each other all day everyday! Everyday is Brolentine's Day for them. I just love the way Evan fixes breakfast for Mason on Saturday and Sunday Mornings, the way he reads books to him and makes sure he understands the story, & how he gives him that little head start when they're racing on their bikes. Mason doest't fall short though, there's always an "I love you bro, I'll miss you, have a great day" at drop off in the morning. And he always has celebratory compliments for Ev like "you're awesome dude" and even the occasional "looking good bro" It just melts my heart!! They are truly best friends and go together like PB&J. They really are the #perfectpair.
Speaking of the #perfectpair, we can't get enough of these little chocolate treats! Kids love them and hubby is hooked. I love that they are NON-GMO and made of real simple ingredients & dark chocolate. With all the dietary restrictions we have around here, these are perfect for us to snack on. Plus perfect for Valentine's Day treats!
P.S. Be sure to come back this week. I'll be sharing hubby & I's love story & Mason's bday pics!
*Thank you to barkThins for making his post possible. All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.

Discussions in the #CIOChat are always insightful with each member of the group bringing a fresh perspective to a variety of interesting data-driven topics. Increasingly in these forums and as I talk with CIOs and other business leaders, the conversation comes back to protecting privacy.
Recently, in light of Data Privacy Day, Sharon Pitt, CIO of the Binghamton University, started off an interesting #CIOChat by saying how really important it is to think about safeguarding personal data. Peter Salvitti, CTO of Boston College, agreed, but then asked whether one day a year alone is really enough to safeguard data and maintain privacy awareness. Echoing Protegrity's CEO Suni Munshani's sentiments, Stephen diFilipo, CIO of the Institute for Transformational Learning, responded to Pitt and Salvitti by saying that, "Every day should be data privacy day."
Isaac Sacolick, former Global CIO for Greenwich Associates, said in turn that, "Organizations that define proper use of data drive greater business benefits and earn customer trust." At this point Theresa Rowe, CIO of the University of Oakland, added to the discussion by asking everyone about new sources of data saying, "We need to help people understand how beacons and other sensor technologies may end up compromise privacy." Salvitti suggested that we also should not forget the metadata created: "We need to remember that everything we are doing is being tracked."
Individuals' awareness of this kind of digital surveillance in light of their Right to Privacy is at the heart of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). When asked about the Regulation, Pascal Viginier, CIO of the European telecom company Orange, said that for them it "is a top initiative and a real opportunity for building customer trust." He went onto to say that data privacy and opt-in are the most respectful ways to support customer privacy and freedom and begged the question, "How to make it the main stream in all regions?"
"On the flipside," said David Chou, Chief Information and Digital Officer at Children's Mercy Hospital, "people are willing to give up some privacy for a great experience." This lead to a discussion on what marketers at firms like Nordstrom or services providers like Uber are doing with data and the steps they will take to meet customers' expectations that personal information be protected. For example, Uber masks phone numbers and complete names from both drivers and users.
Ed Featherston, VP Principal Architect at Cloud Technology Partners, said at this point that privacy is, "a huge challenge in today's world, a delicate balance of privacy vs. convenience, walking tightrope over shark tank." He added that "privacy is the rules, security is the mechanism to (try) and enforce the rules." I could not agree more with his contextualization of security and privacy, especially with respect to the GDPR.
Larry Larmeu, Managing Director L2 Digital, said that the GDPR is hugely important because most technology is not built for consumption by IT. Larmeu argues here that as technology always has a business purpose, privacy should always be considered during implementation. Brian Katz, Office of the CTO at VMWare, suggested that compliance can be easy when security is part of the "DNA or culture of organizations" but equally, it is difficult when this is not the case. Tim Crawford, former CIO and CIO Strategic Advisor, suggested that too often compliance strategy is a knee jerk reaction to the symptom, not the problem. Larry Larmeu said often responses are all about the bottom line – managing cost versus risk.
Josh Olson, CIO of Michigan Tech and Ed Featherston both suggested education about risk is essential for organizations to effectively meet their responsibilities under regulation. Brian Katz warned that "only those that study GDPR will be ready," complaining that it "shouldn't have to be just EU citizens" whose privacy is respected.
Clearly data privacy needs more attention than one day a year; it needs to be part of an organization's DNA and culture. I agree that more education is needed for brands to meet their custodial obligations to privacy. It is important that IT organizations focus their attention upon protecting data itself, rather than just protecting infrastructure; especially under the terms of the GDPR. If this is important to you, here is a nice summary of how to overcome GDPR challenges.
Finally, as I have said before, the bad guys will get in, the question is what will happen when this occurs.

In 2011 the California legislature passed and the governor approved new legislation that will impact the construction industry. And some previously approved laws will be coming into effect in 2012. These modifications include several relatively high impact changes.
A 2012 Update on New California Laws that May Impact the Construction Industry
Can a project owner sue a contractor for slander of title on the basis that the contractor's mechanic's lien lacks merit? The answer is no
Project owners facing mechanic's lien claims they believe lack merit will often threaten to retaliate with a slander of title action against the claimant. But the law generally does not allow a slander claim against a lien claimant, even if the claim lacks merit. In a recent appeals court case a project owner sought to have the court create a lack of merit exception to this rule. The court refused to do so, instead confirming that even unmeritorious lien claims are privileged acts and not subject to a slander claim.
Have You Given Proper Notice of The Delay? California Appellate Court Permits Assessment of Liquidated Damages Due to Contractor's Failure To Give Notice of Delay.
In a recent case entitled Greg Opinski Construction v. City of Oakdale, 199 Cal.App.4th 1107 (2011) a California Appellate Court held that when a construction contract requires notice be given as a condition for getting an extension of time and notice is not given, the contractor cannot later claim that the delay was caused by the owner. This is noteworthy since it refutes prior precedent that allowed a contractor to assert that the liquidated damages should not be assessed since the public entity delayed the project during a period of owner caused delay.
Are you Prequalified to be Awarded Small Public Projects not Subject to Formal Bidding Requirements?
As contractors know, public works projects must be awarded via a public, competitive bidding process (excepting those where expenditures will be $5,000 or less). But in 1983 California legislators passed the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act ("Act"), allowing some smaller projects to bypass the formal bidding process and be awarded either by negotiated contract, or via an informal bidding process. The Act also allows some particularly small projects to be self-performed by public agency forces.

Services are the fastest growing segment of Apple's profit and volume. Apple is in a unique position to capitalize on medical due to its relationships with TSM on the hardware side with their mems expertise and Kaiser with their large, deep, digitized data base. With the Apple watch also being another fast growing area for Apple, all these factors combine to make dominating wearable medical devices a staggeringly large, international market with the world's growing and rapidly aging population. Apple of all major companies also has the best reputation for data security, which is especially critical in medical and mandated by law in most countries. All these and many other factors make Apple the leading contender for not only medical wearables, but the platform to manage one's health. It is not a stretch to even see this mandated for many by their insurance company and maybe even Medicare and Medicaid. This is one area that would offer even a company the size of Apple, sustained, substantial growth. Apple has everything necessary to build a world wide medical platform that would feed on itself not only for Apple, but its partners. If Apple could pull this off, they could become so large they could even dwarf Amazon with their products ranging from wearables to the interface diagnostic tool for medical facilities to interfacing with medical plans, public and private. With medical a 3.7 trillion dollar market and growing in the US alone, the market is far to large to not be taken very, very seriously.
Update: Warren Buffet purchased 75M shares of Apple, Apple and Medical will be a game changer and maybe have a few surprises and unintended consequences

The U.S. Department of Justice is trying to force a former South Korean president and his family to turn over $700,000 they allegedly laundered by buying and selling a house in Newport Beach.
In a civil forfeiture lawsuit filed Thursday morning in Los Angeles Federal court, the DOJ alleges that former South Korean President Chun Doo-hwan bought a home on Port Manleigh Place in 2005 using money connected to millions of dollars of bribes he allegedly received while in power.
"While serving as Korea's president, Chun Doo-hwan betrayed the Korean people by taking over $200 million in bribes, some of which his family members then illegally laundered into the United States," Acting Assistant Attorney General David O'Neil said in a news release.
In 1997, South Korean authorities convicted President Chun of receiving those bribes.
"President Chun and his relatives laundered some of these corruption proceeds through a web of nominees and shell companies in both Korea and the United States," the DOJ announcement said.

MARLBOROUGH – The city's Community Development Authority saved slightly more than $100,000 in the first year of a 20-year solar net metering agreement that officials say could net a total savings of $2.4 million.
The Community Development Authority board in 2016 approved a long-term net metering deal with solar developer BlueWave Capital - which has developed and built more than 100 megawatts of solar projects delivering more than $275 million in estimated lifetime savings to customers. The company – along with Paul Knowlton of Knowlton Farm – built a solar farm on Estabrook Road in Grafton.
Net metering is a system in which solar panels are connected to a public utility grid and surplus power is transferred onto the grid, allowing the entity to offset the cost of power drawn from the utility. The city will pay about 10 cents per kilowatt-hour – a rate that will not rise during the 20-year agreement.
The city will also receive a $60,000 co-development fee paid over six years and an annual $10,000 asset management fee that escalates at 2 percent each year.
"It's a phenomenal program," said Douglas Bushman, Housing Authority executive director.
The savings have allowed the Community Development Authority – which Bushman oversees – to conduct maintenance and infrastructure projects and increase staff time on tenant issues at the authority's three properties – the Pleasant, Main and Bolton street apartments.
The department has replaced windows in the waiting room at the Main Street apartments, purchased additional maintenance equipment and additional landscaping, said Bushman.
"We've been able to turn that savings back to the tenants," said Bushman. "It's had a big impact. It's helped our bottom line and helped our tenants."
Public housing authorities in Westborough, Lowell, Webster and Tyngsborough are also receiving electricity savings from the Grafton solar farm.
The project will increase Marlborough's reliance on solar energy.
"It's helping us produce not only environmentally save energy, but it's local," said Bushman.

The refreshed 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class has been scheduled for the next year, but we have seen a testing prototype that reveals most of the exterior styling. Still, don't get excited too much because there will be no too many design changes at all. No, the update appears to be focused mostly on technology.
New Spy Shots: https://www.motor1.com/news/186454/mercedes-c-class-refresh-spied/
Outside and Inside
The new exterior won't stay completely without changes. Instead, the refreshed vehicle is getting a pair of new headlights in the front and a tweaked front bumper. It's pretty much the same story around back. The testing vehicle covers up the taillights, which is the reason to believe that this will be the only change in the rear. In any case, both headlights and taillights will likely resemble the E-Class' units.
The cabin is a place to search most of the changes planned from the 2019 C-Class. The awesome car will host a totally new infotainment with a new touchpad controller in the center console, which replaces today's rotary dial. Mercedes will almost definitely add a digital instrument cluster, yet we would not be surprised if they leave an analog option as well.
Under The Hood
Mercedes will add a few new options under the hood without any doubt. They will not skip the chance to introduce new inline six and four-cylinder. Plus, most of the available units will use new efficiency improvements such as a single electric motor, which replaces starter motor and alternator. The topping 2019 Mercedes C63 will feature the current 4.0-liter biturbo V8. Though the carmaker might add even more steroids to the engine, so it might produce even more power in the future.

History shows 'henna' or 'mehndi' is over 9000 years old and that the art of henna art has been practiced for over 5000 years in South Asia, Africa, and Middle East. Henna has natural cooling properties; therefore, people in the warmer climates used to put henna paste of the palm of their hands and soles of their feet to get an air conditioning affect. Later on making decorative designs with the paste came in to effect.
The poor wore henna as a sort of jewellery in those times as they could not afford the gold and silver to adorn themselves; whereas, the rich wore it for decorative purpose.
Henna has been used for centuries to dye skin, hair, and fingernails but also to dye fabrics like silk, wool, and leather.
Medicinal Properties
Henna is a plant, is considered an herb, and has long been known to have healing properties. In ancient times it has been used to cure headaches, stomach pains, burns (including sunburns) open wounds, as a fever reducer, and to prevent hair loss. It is also a natural sunblock and is still used on animals' noses to prevent them from getting sunburn.
Henna holds special traditional significances and practices in cultures around South Asia, Africa, and Middle East. A common practice is to decorate the hands of the bride with henna. In South Asian culture, adorning the hands of a bride or a married woman is a sign of prosperity and success but most importantly a sign of her "Suhaag" – of her being married. Also traditionally, it was believed that as long as the henna colour appears on the bride's hands, she doesn't have to do house work.
There are many superstitions attached to henna when it comes to a South Asian married woman. And although many people don't believe these superstitions, there are many that do.
For example, the darker the colour of henna on the bride, the better the marriage; the darker the stain on her feet, the better the mother-in-law will be; and the darker the colour on her hands, the more loving husband she'll have.

The bios fires up perfectly but something is corrupted as it wont boot from any media at all. It seems as if it is stuck on exiting the bootup screen as it goes to a black screen after bios summary and sits there but if I press F2 (to enter the bios) it puts up "Entering SETUP..." at the bottom of the screen... Something is screwed anyway Cheers CODEiT

Right now, the news of the birth of the literary love child of Faber & Faber and Domino Records has made me happier than if that stalk were to drop a swimming pool onto the toasting tarmac outside my flat. Yes, two of the UK's most exciting independent creative names have got it together, and the fruit of their toils is Loops, a twice-yearly journal of music-related textual gubbins available in the form of 224 glorious pages.
"Free from the shackles of release schedules," say the journal's creators, "Loops provides a space for artists to publish tour diaries, non-sequiturs and think-pieces and an opportunity for writers to stretch out and go off-map to share their thoughts and ideas."
Issue 1's release-unleashed contributors include Nick Cave (who presents his article 'The Death of Bunny Munro'), Nick Kent (on Nick Drake) and some people not called Nick, including, of course, the culture-corpse vulture of the blogosphere, one Maggoty Lamb.
And (in case you aren't already wiping the flecks of excitement-/heatwave-induced sweat from your keyboard…) readers also receive their own code with which to crack into the free Domino Records sampler. Loops, welcome to the world.

Read the conversation between Tom, a pupil of a secondary school, and his old friend, Mark, who has just started his studies at the university.
Tom: Hi, Мark. How's college?
Мark: Great. I'm having such a good time. I used to study harder when I was at secondary school.
Tom:You're so lucky to be a year older than me. I'm still studying four hours a night.

Text 4. STUDIYING AT UNIVERSITY (IN ENGLAND AND WALES)
If you want to go to (= enter) university, you must first pass examinations that most students take at the age of eighteen (called 'A' levels). Most students take three 'A' levels (three examinations in three different subjects) and they must do well in order to get/obtain a place at university because the places are limited. At the moment, approximately 30 % of young adults go to university in Britain.
If you get a place at university, the tuition (= the teaching) is free, and some students also get (= receive) a grant (= money to pay for living expenses, e.g. food and accomodation) as well. Students at university are called undergraduates while they are studying for their first degree.
Most university courses last (= go on for/continue for) three years, some courses last four years, and one or two courses, e.g. medicine, may be longer. During this period students can say that they are doing/studying history, or doing/studying for a degree in history, for example. When they finish the course and pass their examinations, they receive a degree (the qualification when you complete a university course successfully). This can be a BA (= Bachelor of Arts) or a BSc (=Bachelor of Science), e.g. I have a friend who has a BA in history, and another who has a BSc in chemistry.
Text 5. POSTGRADUATE COURSES
When you complete your first degree, you are a graduate. (In the US, students also use this word as a verb and say, they 'graduated in history' or 'graduated in chemistry', for example.) Some students then go on to do a second course or degree (postgraduate course/ postgraduate degree). These students are then postgraduates. There are usually three possible degrees:
MA (Master of Arts) or MSc (Master of Science), usually one year;
MPhil (Master of Philosophy), usually two years;
PhD (Doctor of Philosophy), at least three years.
When people study one subjects in great detail (often to find new information), we say they are conducting/doing/carrying out research; e.g.
I'm doing some research into/on the languages of different African tribes.
school vs. university.At school, you have teachers and lessons, at university, you have lecturers and lectures. When a lecturer gives/does a lecture, the students listen and take/make notes(= write down the important information), but do not usually say much, except to ask occasional questions.
Read these sentences spoken by university students. What is each person studying? Mark the stress on each of your answers, check with the answer key, and practise saying the words.
1. We have to know every bone in a person's body.
2. I'm concentrating on the modernist style and the work of Le Corbusier.
3. The way we use fertilizers is much more precise than twenty years ago.
4. We're going to concentrate on Freud and Jung this term.
5. I've been reading some books on time management.
6. Expressionism was really a reaction to the work of the Impressionists.
7. We've spent a lot of time on American foreign policy and how it has been affected by various domestic problems.
8. You must know this case – it's one of the most famous in legal history.
13. What do you call:
1) the money some students receive if they get a place at university?
2) the qualification you get at the end of university?
3) the name we give students during this period at university?
4) teachers at university?
5) students when they have completed their first degree?
6) students studying for a second degree?
7) the study of one subject in great depth and detail, often to get a new information?
8) the talks that students go to while they are at university?
Replace the underlined verbs with different verbs that have the same meaning in the context.
1. Who is giving the lecture today?
2. Did she receive a grant for her course?
3. Is it more difficult to obtain a place at university?
4. You have to pass the exams before you can enter university.
5. He's studying physics, I think.
6. I think they're carrying out some research into computer studies.
7. I didn't take any notes in the lecture yesterday.
8. The course goes on for three years.

People often design their homes slowly, not realizing that they do not have a sense of organization. Interior design does not have to be difficult and the skills of a professional are not needed to create a fabulous living space. Keep reading for great ideas that can help.
Whenever you are designing your office, ensure your space is as functional as possible. Comfort cannot be compromised when purchasing a chair and desk, and the right lighting is also very important. The area has to be conducive to work. You will spend a lot of time here. Once you are sure the space will be properly set up for work, you can start thinking about how to make it visually appealing.
Decide on a mood for a room or space before beginning to actually work on designing the space. Your moods can vary so you want to create one in the room you are decorating. Picking a mood before you begin will help inform the decisions that go into planning for the space, and will create a more cohesive feel in the end.
Think about mixing in different colors and patterns to your design to make the space more vibrant. Different patterns and textures add detail and accent each other. For more contemporary designs, textures and patterns must be used.
One piece of fine art added to a room can be well worth the price. A painting can serve as a focal point, especially if it matches your design elements. A painting can provide you with a starting place with your decorating.
Thought needs to be given to the furnishings that are being placed into a small room. Sofas don't always fit well, so consider ottomans for seating instead. You can use the ottoman as both a table, as well as additional seating. Items that are multi-purpose allow you to make your space more versatile.
Picking the right colors is essential for every design project. Consult color charts to become familiar with colors that work well together and avoid using colors that clash so that your room is harmonious. You should also avoid the use of many bold and bright colors in a single room.
A good suggestion for interior design is to be aware of the lighting level within a room. If you are lacking in window area in your room, you should paint the walls a light and bright color.
A great interior decorating tip is to include different patterns and/or textures into whatever room you are designing. Varying textures create interest and depth in a room, while patterns provide a contrast to smooth pieces such as wood furniture or window glass. If you want your space to look more modern, textures and patterns can help.
Hang wall art at eye-level for the best effect. Hanging paintings and photos too high or low will make a room look unbalanced.
You can save money in your design budget by shopping at discount stores. High-end decor is real expensive, but if you look around and are resourceful, you will find something similar at a much cheaper price. If you are not able to find an alternative and it is a must have, you can splurge.
Think about getting non-traditional countertops for your kitchen. Traditional granite is always popular, but materials like concrete, cork and wood can also be lovely options. These options are sometimes less expensive, and they give your kitchen a unique look that is truly your own.
Keep your room's lighting in mind. Opt for a light or pastel shade of wallpaper or interior paint when decorating a room that has little natural light.
A good tip if you are interested in your interior design is to be sure you are up-to-date with current style trends. You don't want to be that person that looks like they're stuck in the 70's, with old and tacky wallpaper. Take the time to view other peoples homes to see how they are decorating them.
Many people have opinions with regards to interior planning, but you shouldn't listen to all of it. You will not be able to enjoy your house truly unless you know how to use your own judgement in creating a design that greatly reflects your personality.
Pictures are a great place to show your personality. They are also part of the room's design. Pictures and posters can be hung in different angles to improve the appearance. Hang the art in some really unique ways. Making use of surrounding white space can create some interesting effects and even change the mood of a room.
Keep a child's theme when you are decorating the room for your son or daughter, and put their wishes first. Think about what they like so that they can appreciate how you redecorate their room. Make sure that everything is easy for them to access. You should also be alert to any objects in the room that could present a potential danger to your children.
As you prepare to decorate a room, consider its purpose carefully. Consider the types of gatherings that may convene in the room and for what kinds of occasions. Consider your loved ones whenever it is time to design the living room; however, you should focus on you and your spouse whenever you are changing up your bedroom.
You should now have some knowledge that will allow you to be successful in interior design. It will be easy to set your own home apart from the rest now that you are aware of these new techniques. Take these techniques and try them out on your own property to see a finished look you have always desired.
Lights are one of the most important elements of a room. It creates the feel of the room. Bright lights project a positive vibe, and are often a good choice for kitchens and bathrooms. However, bright lights may also project way too much energy in rooms where a more calmer atmosphere is desired. Master bedrooms and living areas are typically outfitted with more subdued, subtle lighting; a dimmer switch is ideal for these areas.

An official of the Gauteng department of health has been convicted of conspiring to commit murder, Health MEC Gwen Ramokgopa said.
Briefing the media in Midrand, Ramokgopa said Zandi Qwabe, a clerk at the Bheki Mlangeni Regional Hospital in Soweto, had organised hitmen to have the CEO and the labour relations manager of the hospital killed.
"Today one of our employees appeared in Protea Magistrate's Court. This follows her arrest for threatening management at Bheki Mlangeni Regional Hospital. She was convicted on 13 November 2017 for conspiring to commit murder," Ramokgopa said.
"The case has been postponed to the 2nd of February 2018 for sentencing. I commend the Hawks and SAPS for working tirelessly on this and other cases that are aimed at protecting the department as a precious asset of our people."
She further said that her office has upheld 23 dismissals, eight suspensions and five final written warnings within the department.
"These sanctions must serve as a lesson to those who might think of committing crime under our watch. There is no place to hide for corrupt officials, especially those collaborating with criminal elements to defraud a service whose mandate is to save lives.
"Public service belongs to the thousands of upright, honest and caring health workers who provided services to over 27 million patient visits in the past year," said Ramokgopa.

My gal pal and I were looking for a place to watch the game. It was the finals game for volleyball where our school was up to take the crown. We walked the street of Poblacion in the hopes of finding one that would let us watch it. Then this hostel showed up just in time.
Before we got to pay for our drinks and food, we had to get our RFID strap first. That's the payment scheme at this place which was pretty cool. You just had to load it and the servers will just scan it for your purchases. Their cafe/bar was quite small which makes it intimate. It's really meant for the guests at this hostel where they could grab Pinoy dishes. Designwise, it is very much Filipino-imbued. They were able to add the right elements to make it classy and modern.
Just light a snack to pair with our cold beer. The chip itself was okay though a little bland. Its best to dip it in the sauce.
Too bad we never got to taste the dishes here which I heard were pretty good. But it's a good place to hang out and watch a game. Service was fast and the servers were very accommodating.

Northamptonshire County Council suspends spending
Tuesday 6th February, 2018
Northamptonshire County Council's Director of Finance has issued a section 114 notice imposing immediate spending controls on the organisation.
The move comes after the council recognise the severe financial challenge it's facing and the significant risk that it will not be in a position to deliver a balanced budget by the end of the year.
Group Finance Director, Mark McLaughlin projected a £21.1m black hole for 2017/18 - partly as a result of a failure to sell housing development land.
Richard Murphy, Tax Research UK, commented in his blog, "I forecast that local authorities might face this situation not long ago, but remain surprised that the government has let it happen in a shire county with so little time to elapse before deeply sensitive council elections."
Secretary of State for Local Government, Sajid Javid, announced last month that a government inspector would be assessing the council's financial state.
The Conservative-run authority said staff pay would not be affected.
Northampton's finances appear to have deteriorated too far for the council to be able to manage its own finances and it seems government intervention is likely.
The implications are due to be discussed at a full Council meeting on 22nd February.

|I Love Cuddles!
Been busy at work in my new job - week 3 and we had the annual auditors visit - interesting when they are asking me stuff like 'where's this invoice' and all I can say is 'see that cupboard over there?' because I have no idea yet where anything is or how things were done in the last financial year!
I started the week in WoW with more pet battles but I finally caved in and treated myself to an iPad which arrived on Wednesday. I spent most of that evening downloading new apps and logging in to my regular ones like Twitter. It was most peculiar to be sitting at my computer & responding to tweets via iPad even though I had Twitter open on my PC!
I treated myself to Netflix too so Thursday evening was the first evening since last August that I spent away from my computer desk. I actually sat on the sofa and watched some tv & played some silly games. That may sound strange but as I didn't even have a sofa until about 3 months ago & I still have no television, I haven't had many options for getting away from the PC other than to lie in bed & read or sit on the floor or something! Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining at all - I made my choices & I'm pretty happy with them so far.
I've also started my own improvement project - joining a gym, eating sensibly & trying to shape up a bit. Eventually I'll add giving up smoking to that list but with everything going on, I don't think right now is the best time to add nicotine withdrawal to my list! There's something else on my self-improvement list but I don't think I'm ready to share that yet - it will be the biggest step though and probably another life-changer for me.
As for my secret project, that started a couple of weeks ago & this morning was almost finalised. The end results will be made public in the next few days & I am mega-stoked to share it with you. It's been really hard keeping it to myself but I think & I hope it will be a popular move with my friends & my readers.
I'll be back to pet battling posts next time though - I'm heading in now to finish of Northrend & maybe the Cataclysm zones too before bedtime tonight!
Check out some of my Squidoo lenses!

Tesla (TSLA) - Volatility Divergence Forms; Risk is Elevated for the Next 4 Days
TSLA is trading $112.15, down 11.9% with IV30™ up 6.5%. The LIVEVOL® Pro Summary is below.
Livevol Execution: Complex Trading Simplified
Click to Learn More
Tesla Motors, Inc. (Tesla) designs, develops, manufactures and sells electric vehicles and advanced electric vehicle powertrain components. Tesla owns its sales and service network.
I wrote about TSLA in a three piece series in May. You can read those posts by clicking the titles, below:
5-9-2013: Tesla (TSLA) - Earnings Explosion Spectacle Hides Vol Shift -- This is a New Company -- A Paradigm Shift is Complete
<5-15-2013: b="">Tesla (TSLA) - May Skew Stays Parabolic; Vol Diff Opens... And Some Stuff You May Not Have Known...5-15-2013:>
5-29-2013: Tesla (TSLA) - This is a New Company; The Paradigm Shift Continues; Part 3 of 3.
Today the stock came up on a real-time custom scan. This one hunts for calendar spreads between the front two months. And yes, I know we are just four days from expiry, bu this is still worth a look...
Custom Scan Details
Stock Price GTE $5
Sigma1 - Sigma2 GTE 8
Average Option Volume GTE 1,000
Industry isNot Bio-tech
Days After Earnings GTE 5 LTE 70
Sigma1, Sigma2 GTE 1
The snapshot of the scan is included (below) in case you want to build it yourself in Livevol® Pro.
The goal with this scan is to identify back months that are cheaper than the front by at least 8 vol points. I'm also looking for a reasonable amount of liquidity in the options (thus the minimum average option volume), want to avoid bio-techs (and their crazy vol) and make sure I'm not selling elevated front month vol simply because earnings are approaching.
Looking to the Skew Tab (below), we can see the elevated vol in the front month (red line) relative to the second month (yellow line).
We can see two phenomena here:
(1) Jul vol is above Aug vol for all strikes.
(2) The Jul skew shape is parabolic (which is common going into expiration), so the OTM vols show an exponentially greater volatility difference between Jul and Aug.
The earnings date for TSLA is a it ambiguous. Last year they released on May 9 then Jul 25. This year they released on May 8, so Jul 24 is a reasonable guess for the next earnings report. If that's the case, we not only have a calendar vol diff, but one in which earnings vol can be owned for less than the font month (without earnings). Hmmm...
Now we can turn to the one-year Charts Tab (below). The top portion is the stock price, the bottom is the vol (IV30™ - red vs HV20™ - blue vs HV180™ - pink).
On the stock side we can see how TSLA's price has rocketed from an annual low of ~$45, to now trading over $110, even with the large decline today. On the vol side, check out that pop in the implied (the red line). A part of that is due to earnings, but the really abrupt nature of it is in part a reflection of today's pop (~10% as I'm writing the article).
Finally, let's look to the Options Tab (below).
Across the top we can see Jul vol is priced to 91.76% while Aug is priced to 82.50%. But, look at some of the OTM spreads and we'll see much greater than that 9 point (ish) vol diff.
For example:
The Jul/Aug 130 call spread shows a vol diff of ~14 vol points and the Jul/Aug 92.5 put spread shows a ~42 point vol diff.
Please understand that these are just observations not trade ideas or recommendations.

What is the hardest thing you've ever experienced?
I think I have been pretty lucky. Aside from a few bumps along the way, things are generally footloose and fancy-free. Plus, those of you who know me know I am generally not a big talker about emotional things (until we're having a little porch party and I'm a couple glasses of wine in, but that's only in front of a select few of you!), so this is gonna be strange.
I can't really pinpoint the moment when I started to feel like everything was just not right. On paper, things looked fine - a decent job, a nice apartment, a fantastic group of friends, and a guy that I was planning my life with. But there was a little something that was trying to tell me this isn't right.
I felt completely hopeless. Completely stuck. Completely frustrated. What the hell was I doing? Was this it? I was so unhappy, and I hated the person I was turning into, but I didn't know what to do about it. Looking for a different job was miserable as I had no idea what I wanted to do and nothing looked remotely appealing, and I couldn't stand the thought of staying in the suburbs or moving to the city and where does that leave you? Planning for a future was equally miserable, as it was so dependent on work and I just didn't want to think about it. Going back to school seemed daunting for the same reason. It all came down to WTF am I meant to be doing? I don't think I can articulate how totally depressed I was. I cannot ever remember feeling so miserable and so hopeless and so stuck for so long.
So in typical fashion, it was time for rash decisions and big changes. Move out, break up, quit. Excellent. Except now I'm single, unemployed, and living with my parents at 25. Not the worst thing in the world, but hardly sustainable.
My students always ask me, "Why Prague?" I usually tell them something like "Ohhhhhh, my friend from high school told me it was a great idea/the job market in the US is terrible/I've always wanted to live in Europe/I really like beer/I love teaching (ha! no one buys that, I've stopped trying to sell it)/drugs." I find these are much easier answers to explain that "I was running away."
Because that's what it was. I needed a total escape, from everything. I love home. I love the people, the places, everything that New Jersey is. But I needed to get away from it, desperately.
Getting on that plane was the hardest thing I have ever done. Saying goodbye to everyone broke my heart. I still cry when I think about home, or hear a song that reminds me of driving around blasting it and singing at the top of our lungs, or if I see a boston terrier in the park, or have something super important to tell someone but everyone's six hours behind, but I also feel free. I posted yesterday about how happy I am, and it's true. Coming to Prague has let me leave behind so much baggage, so much drama, so much frustration.
It means the world to me that my family continues to support me, and my friends are still the loves of my life, even if it's weeks since we last spoke. I love that halfway around the world, I still have Peej here as a little piece of home, so when we're sad we can commiserate together about how much we miss taylor ham and bagels. The day I left, Lili gave me a letter which said "I don't know how long you plan on spending in Prague, but I hope you find what you're looking for. Clearly, life doesn't go according to plan but I think you will have lots of fun there and realize what you want to do with your life." (so wise, that young one) There are definitely days when I still think to myself whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat is happening, what am I supposed to be doing?! But I feel much better about those days now.
Okay, that's enough emotions for one day. Hope tomorrow is something a bit more cheerful!
And so, I will leave you with this:
And because I want to be super cheerful, I also find these amusing...
Now, stop reading and go vote.

Competing for a Research Space: The Criticism of Ones Own Scientifíc Communíty Anna Fagan Pedro Martín Martín University of La Laguna Showing disagreement with the ideas sustained inprevious research or mentioning gaps in the existing literature are typical linguistic strategies used in scientifíc articles with the aim of justifying publication.
In this paper we explore the interpersonal pragmatic phenomenon of academic conflict (AC) and attempt to complement this área of research by providing a taxonomy which can be used to classify the various rhetorical strategies that writers may use to convey academic criticism in scientifíc texts.
The taxonomy of rhetorical optíons that we propose comprises three dimensíons: i) the writer, who has several cholees for conveying AC (with or without writer mediation, or reported) ii) the author, i.
the target of criticism (personal or impersonal), and iii) the act ofcriticising itself (with of without hedging devices).
We will also evalúate the application of this taxonomy to a corpus of 150 research articles from a wide range of disciplines, and discuss the limitations of a quantitative approach to academic criticism. Introduction Scientific discourse has often been viewed as purely informative, objective and impersonal.
However, a growing literature in both sociology and applied linguistics (e.g.
Gilbert and Mulkay, 1984; Hyland, 2000, 2001) has focused on the pragmatic aspects which involve scientific-academic discourse.
These studies have shown that in the publication of texts there is a series of social interactions between writers and readers, which have an effect on the rhetorical cholees that writers make to position themselves and their work in relation to the other members of their discourse community. In order to justify publication, writers must créate a research space that permits them to present their new knowledge claims to the other members of the academic community.
This mainly implies that the au...

Chondroitin Sulfate is widely used in beauty and
personal care products. From skin care to cosmetics.
Chondroitin Sulfate is found in a variety of products in the beauty and personal care segment. Because of its ability to moisturize, heal, and soothe skin with its anti-inflammatory properties and ability to reinforce the intercellular matrix, Chondroitin Sulfate is often used in skin conditioning agent or in hair products. But there are many other possible uses.
Chondroitin Sulfate can be used in skin care products, in hair care such as shampoo and conditioner and in a wide range of cosmetic products. Chondroitin Sulfate is derived from muco-polysaccarides and in skin care, the collagen and elastin building properties can be applied topically and potentially be added from the outside in.
In hair care products such as shampoo and conditioner, Chondroitin Sulfate is used to keep the hair moist and smooth and reduce drying out.
Along with skin and hair products, Chondroitin Sulfate is also often used in rejuvenating serums, sun lotions, lip balms, pain relief cream and many other products. For beauty and personal care products we manufacture different grades of Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate typically containing 20 %, 40 % or 80 % of Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate.
The use of Chondroitin Sulfate is in different countries restricted or controlled by the authorities. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the finished goods to assure compliance with the regulation of the individual country.

AS WE await publication of the government's white paper on lifelong learning and consider the proper contribution to it of colleges and universities, I do hope the debate will not be conducted by misleading, tabloid-style headlines in The THES.
The complex issues involved must not be reduced to a crude choice between the merits of further and higher education.
I have never advocated that universities should "model" themselves on further education colleges (as my directly quoted remarks demonstrate), nor have I used the phrase that universities need to "sign up" to a new vision.
If I do not explicitly rule things out, that should not suggest that I implicitly rule them in.
I have been very encouraged by universities' responsiveness to the post-Dearing debate and their declared willingness to contribute to the culture of lifelong learning.

Dear readers,
This week I had my first appointment with MKB Amsterdam. Although it was the second meeting for Lukas and Benjamin, we're going to look into the improvement of subsidy and SME's. This week we will look into past studies about SME's and subsidy so we can take this into account when we develop our own research question.
Hopefully we can interview an entrepreneurship professional in the next two weeks who's focussing on the improvement of transport and how to make it better for the environment. Starting January 2015, the city of Utrecht will ban all diesel-fuelled cars older than 15 years. There is a similar plan ready for the city of Amsterdam. Changing the whole car fleet of an SME will cost huge amounts of money that can be better used in developing new technologies or expanding the business.
Since today was the first meeting, the upcoming weeks we will be focussing on finding information so we contribute to the Amsterdam SME's when their subsidy stops and they won't get into trouble.
