In January, I decided to take a trip to Nantes to visit my friend Elodie. It was an easy train trip from Paris and she met me at the train station. At first glance, I felt like it was a very peaceful place and I knew I was going to feel instantly at home.
We caught a tram to her place and I was amazed to see this mansion of an apartment. In Paris, I live in a shoebox apartment so her spacious, light-filled apartment in the centre of Nantes was a dream. Over the two days, she made some amazing home-cooked meals for us including quiche lorraine, home-made flavoursome soups, lovely honey & goat's cheese snacks and a first for me, Raclette.
Raclette is the name of a cheese which is heated up and when melted poured on top of cooked potatoes. A couple of these with red wine and salad and my stomach was exploding. It was the most delicious and satisfying traditional French meal for the winter time.
We did a lot of walking and did a bike tour of city and explored many gems of the city. I was looking forward to seeing the famous Les Machines de l'île and the mechanical elephants but unfortunately, they were not running at the time. I guess I will have to come back one day to see this in summer. There was also the building "Air" which is living as it makes bird chirping and industrial chinking noises when you stand close to it.
The first night we went to a bar at the top of the Tour de Bretagne, called Le Nid, designed like the nest of a bird. There is a big half-stork, half-heron who's head and body are at different ends of the bar. Overall, it's a cool concept – you can enjoy the views of Nantes from up high and try a nice beer from the region too.
On the bike tour, we stopped at the Jardin des Plantes to check out the natural green beauty in central Nantes. We rode many hours and saw so much of Nantes, it was an incredible experience. Instead of hiring the bikes and having to park them every half an hour, we opted to hire bikes with locks so we were free to move anywhere. We also stopped at La Cigale, a cafe not to be missed. This cafe right in the centre opposite the Opera is a beautiful old historical cafe with amazing interiors and great coffee.
Before I visited Nantes, I also had no idea that the biscuits LU were from there. They are the simplest yet tastiest traditional French biscuits pretty much found in all supermarkets.
Overall, Nantes is a beautiful, calm and friendly city. It is full of street art and eco-friendly buildings. The only distraction are the low flying planes just a minute or so from landing flying over your head which for an aviation lover, is awesome. Honestly, it was a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of Paris and sometimes reminded me of Melbourne with the trams and the open space.

|Ferey's position
The Passarge can only be crossed by the bridge and as the French have held the position for some time. This has enabled them to construct an abatis in front of the entrenchments and also construct obstacles in the woods on the French left.
|The Russian infantry advance
|The Russians cross the entrenchments
|The Russian Hussars strike
Only two much depleted battalions made it back into the woods and they would be unable to stop any Russian flanking manoeuvre. On the opposite flank two attacks by the Alexopol regiment against the redoubt had been repulsed. A flanking move by the 1st battalion 8th legere was countered by the New Ingermanland regiment, but that unit now found itself the target for the French artillery on the west side of the Passarge.
With Baggowut moving through the woods, Bikov now prepared to join the general assault on the French entrenchments. Ferey now had only two full strength battalions, the remaining three had taken significant casualties. He felt he had done all he could and so ordered a withdrawal across the river, covered by the Chasseurs.
The scenario only took a couple of hours to play, so we re-ran it after lunch which resulted in a similar result, but with heavier losses to the Russians. The high spot of the Russian attack was when the 1st battalion Lithuania regiment carried the left hand French redoubt.
|Lithuania take the redoubt

WALKABOUT PIX Collection
The earliest Indigenous art was paintings or engravings on boulders or on the walls of rock shelters and caves. Red ochre was being used for painting at least 30,000 years ago in central Australia. Indigenous people relate these very old images to the actions of Dreaming beings. The images are sacred because they show a continuing ancestral presence.
These artworks, I am now offering to you. Now you can have ancient artworks on your walls.

Laisvallgruvan Short background
The mine was unique. 300 kilometres of underground roads, due to the fact that it was located below a lake.
The closing down of the mine took many years, 2001 2005.
The leadmine of Laisvall has never really been exposed to media or museums.
In between this particular story , I d like to tell something of the general story about Laisvall, possibly about some of the following;

LOG chart of LTC USD
COINBASE:LTCUSD Litecoin / Dollar
215 views
We are currently in a monthly trend. This is a weekly log scale chart containing the 21 ema . I drew the support and resistance lines of the crypto currency since the bull run began. In my oppinion we are safe if we can keep closing above the 21 ema on the weekly chart. You can visually see where the next targets are on the resistance line (if it holds), if it doesn't hold we can go anywhere from 1 to 2 k in my oppinion. This should develope this year, but you never know.

Study Day: Authenticity in Culturally Based Knitting
This workshop will explore definitions of 'traditional' in Shetland knitwear design, the promotion, branding and marketing of 'authentic' Shetland knitwear, and how designers and industry are helped or hindered by a strong basis in heritage. These issues have implications for other types of craft, beyond textiles.
The study day is the last event in the series
Knitting in the Round: Hand-Knitted Textiles and the Economy of Craft in Scotland
, organised by the School of Humanities, University of Glasgow and funded by a grant from the Royal Society of Edinburgh. (
Previous events in the series included a workshop at Sanquhar on the knitted glove tradition, Knitting in Wartime, and the fourth 'In the Loop' Conference held in Glasgow.
The study day at Shetland Museum and Archives will include a morning of illustrated talks. Speakers include:
- Professor Lynn Abrams, author of
Myth and Materiality in a Woman's World: Shetland 1800-2000
- Dr Roslyn Chapman who recently completed her PhD thesis on the knitted lace industry in Shetland
- Curator, Carol Christiansen
- Frances Lennard, Senior Lecturer in Textile Conservation, University of Glasgow
- Rhoda Hughson, Chairman of Unst Heritage Trust
- Kathy Coull, wool producer on Fair Isle and Vice Chair of Shetland Tourism Association
- Helen Robertson, jewellery designer.
The event will conclude with a panel discussion of the issues raised.
As part of the Shetland event, an exhibition will be held in the foyer of Shetland Museum and Archives on knitted lace patterns found in books published between 1840 and 1870. All of the samples in the exhibition were knit by volunteers across the globe, contacted through social media. The patterns were termed 'Shetland' by their Scottish and English authors, but how authentically Shetland are they? Curator Carol Christiansen will discuss the findings of the 19th century pattern books project during the morning talks.

Veljko Popović
She Who Measures (2008)
Are we truly free? Are our desires truly our own or merely imposed products of the society we live in? The question this film is asking is this: are we slaves to the culture and society we were born in or is there a way to escape after all?
Veljko Popović was born in 1979 in Split, Croatia. He graduated in 2003 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, Department of Painting. In 1998 he started working professionally with computer graphics, and since 2003 has been working with Lemonade Productions on development of computer games. He is a co-founder of Lemonade3d, studio for 2D and 3D graphics and animation. He is an Assistant Professor at the Arts Academy in Split, Croatia.
Kenges is animation studio that specialises in 2D/3D computer animation and special digital effects. Besides working on commercial projects for various clients (TV commercials, video clips, theatre and TV projects), thanks to a not-so-common agreement of the complete producers/authors crew, KENGES produces short experimental and animated films, since its very beginnings (1997). And that makes us rather special compared to other Croatian production studios.
The equipment we're working on is adequate and sufficient for what we're doing - we're stubborn enough believing that the creativity of artist, director and/or animator is always above technical exhibition. That's why there's no need to list inventory of our hardware and software. We like to think that our crew and various professional associates - directors, animators, designers and musicians are our most precious equipment.
Films that we have produced, international awards and projects we're currently working on, are our best reference.
Od course, our front (as well as back) doors are open to enyone who offers or is need of ingenious scenarios, storyboards, and visual solutions for films, commercials and video clips.

Finland/ 8.4 Amateur arts, cultural associations and civil initiatives
8.4.1 Amateur arts and folk culture
Table 23 in chapter 8.2.1 opens up a preliminary view of the Finnish amateur art scene. This scene is rather lively when the amateur activity is measured in a simple manner, asking whether the respondent pursues certain listed artistic / creative activities. The preferences and level of activity are very much in consonance with the wider scene of Finnish art world. The traditional top three, music (playing a music instrument), visual arts and amateur authorship have high positive rates of 14%, 14% and 13% respectively. Yet they are surpassed in popularity by photography, pursued by 27% of the respondents. At the lower end of the ranking are the performing arts, amateur singing, dancing, and acting in a theatre club or an amateur theatre, with rates of 7%, 6% and (only) 2% respectively.
The above popularity rating, of course, reflects the different activity contexts, especially, degree of communality, presence of audiences (real or imagined) and need for a teacher or a director. We should also make a difference between "hobby amateurs" and "serious amateurs", i.e. between persons who pursue amateur arts just to have fun and between those who pursue amateur art to become better and potentially even professional artists, alone or in groups. In any case the Finnish art scene would be much poorer without serious amateurs. Without them there wouldn't be fifteen hundred professionally trained choirs with close to 50 000 members, there wouldn't be a network of high quality amateur theatres with two umbrella organisations and 750 amateur theatre members and there wouldn't be exceptional ITE art works without 224 self-made artists. The lifeline of amateur arts as well as trained audiences is the system of extracurricular arts education. The lifeline stretches further, because the associations of amateur art and art enthusiasts organise annually a great number of events, exhibitions and festivals which involve thousands of voluntary workers. Annual Seinäjoki Amateur Theatre Festival organised by the Association of Finnish Amateur Theatres attracts thousands of visitors and receives a subsidy from the Ministry of Education and Culture. In 2010 it was 20 000 EUR.
Finnish youth organisations are active in amateur arts (theatre, dance, music, visual arts, circus etc) and organise cultural events, training, and workshops and carry out active international co-operation in the field. There are two central organisations - Finnish League of Youth Organisations (with 700 units and 54 000 members) and the Association of Swedish Language Youth Organisations. They both receive subsidies from the Ministry of Education and Culture.
Folk culture is thriving in Finland during the summer when the annual Kaustinen Folk Music Festival takes place, with folk music and folk dance not only from Finland but worldwide. In 2010 it had an audience of 84 000, a drop from 2008, when the audience was as high as 117 000 visitors. This was partly due to the fact that the festival was two days shorter and had fewer events. The festival receives a subsidy from the Ministry of Education and Culture which was 150 000 EUR in 2010.

Marketing with social media is an easy way to boost your business, buy avoid spamming the web with junk. As with any other type of publishing, you don't want to publish anything that is not high-quality; doing so can hurt your business. This article is loaded with social media marketing tips and strategies.
Think twice before retaining the services of a social media promotion firm. It is not uncommon for these agencies to use unscrupulous and unfair business practices to cheat business owners of their money. Businesses use myriads of fake social media accounts that they use bots to build. Your money will have been wasted sending you marketing message to accounts no one will ever see.
Regularly produce blog entries. With fresh and relevant content people will keep eagerly checking back in. This is illustrated by the subscriptions that are made to newspapers and magazines. Being consistent is the best thing you can do to get visitors to return to your page.
Every post you make on your blog should include a link at the top to share it on Facebook. Your readers will be able to share your content with their friends easily. This will make more people aware of your blog and bring you more potential customers.
If you have a social media presence, always respond to people when they ask a question or post a comment. Make it a practice to look at commentary that is left on your site, and communicate with those who are communicating with you.
Know what it means to converse. What many companies forget is that once a customer gives feedback, they are opening the door for conversation. Talking openly with your customers is necessary to improve your products. Make it your mission to learn everything you can about their needs, and use this information to make your next move more effective, or improve your company as a whole.
If you want a large number of subscribers to your social media, don't just promote your products all the time. Put up links, stories and content from sources outside your company, but provided the material is related to your business or sector. There are a variety of other posting types, such as contests, pictures and even asking trivia questions. It's highly important that you engage your followers. Do product engagement, not product placement. Aim to create an association between your brand and your customers' lifestyles and identities, rather than their wallets.
If you have a blog, make sure that you have (and if you don't, add it) a "like" button on the top-right corner of your page. This makes it easy for people to like you on the social website. If it is easy to find and prominent on the front page, people will not need to look around. Making it this easy makes it more likely that people will do so and it gives you more exposure.
Someone Else
To ensure your website is going to work with SMM, add some comments, ratings, and some different ways to search. Giving people an option to rate things on their own will help you gain credibility.
You may want to either write a blog for someone else's site or let someone else write a guest blog on yours. This can easily generate more traffic for bother you and the guest blogger. When guest blogging somewhere else, make sure they let you link back to a website of your own. Always, be willing to reciprocate for your own guest bloggers. These blogger's followers will probably investigate your website from either their blog or your own post.
Answer as many questions people throw your way as possible. It's very easy to accidentally miss a comment or message, so be sure that each time that you sign in, you look for comments.
When dealing with social media marketing, don't be shy about asking for help. There are thousands of professionals out there more than willing to help you out. There's no excuse for doing it incorrectly. Their services may set you back hundreds or even thousands of dollars, so choose wisely.
It takes time and patience to build any kind of social media network for marketing. It is extremely unlikely that you will have thousands of followers on your first days. It has happened in the past, but usually it is by chance. If your profiles go viral immediately, that is like gold to your business and is very rare. Be patient and in time, followers will come to you.
Keep active on your page otherwise you will fade into oblivion. In order to have success, it's important to be social and communicate with your readers. If you don't have any activity, then your social media campaign is not going to succeed. But don't overwhelm people with updates; just casually make yourself visible so people know about you and can see that you're active.
Tools that are related to Twitter, like Twellow or Tweepi, are useful. When you use these tools, you can hone in on a target audience. Twitter, like Facebook, takes care of its advertisers, so you can find a lot of help by simply using the tools the site provides. You can subscribe to the users you find, and they may subscribe to you in return.
Add buttons to your social media profiles everywhere, as well as an RSS feed of your updates if you wish. Make this an integrated part of your blog and add it to your email signature as well. It is also important to link up one social media site to another so people can find you on multiple platforms.
Never forget to add the appropriate tags when using Twitter for posting purposes. Hashtags, such as #articlebulder or #jonathanleger, are topic markers for Twitter postings. People subscribed to a certain tag will see your post if you include the hashtag. Make sure you choose your tags very wisely.
Post new messages on Twitter often so your updates are not buried by the feeds of your followers. Twitter is concerned with volume, so you have to post a lot. When you keep posts short, you can stretch out one event by giving a few updates.
You need to understand your audience in order to figure out how to market on social media networks. It's vital that you learn which people fit the demographics you're looking for, and what the best ways to keep them interested are.
Try to stay professional, even in this day and age of social media. Be amiable and welcoming when you introduce yourself, but remain professional. Don't argue, just delete the comments or posts that aren't constructive. Ensure that your personal profile is separate from your professional one!
Make sure to track your progress. You need to have stats that showcase the generated activity and the number of new weekly followers you have. Work on connecting statistics to concrete actions so that you make optimal strategic decisions. This is the best way possible to change your campaign and to hone in on working strategies for your social marketing.
Social Media
To increase your number of followers on social networks, provide exclusive incentives such as coupons or discounts to those who "like" or follow your page. You will make each customer feel like they're getting an exclusive discount thanks to being a follower, which will build their connection to your brand.
You should not expect positive results right away. Putting together a perfect social media marketing plan involves effort. In order to build a successful Facebook or Twitter campaign, you first need to attract a critical mass of followers. To get the word out, make your social media page known in all of your other marketing materials.
Research the topic of social networking. Using Facebook professionally is quite different from the normal social chatter with friends. You can look for a lot of information on this online, and you can find professionals that may offer advice too.
Offering your customers to do surveys about their habits on social media sites is beneficial. If respondents indicate that they devote an hour or more daily to browsing social media sites, you should take advantage of that fact and create a profile for your business. Of course, if your particular audience has little interest in social media sites, then your efforts are best focused elsewhere.
A good way to get people interested in your niche is to use social media marketing to sponsor an online questions and answers forum. These sessions provide opportunities for potential customers to find out what you have to offer and what your company is all about. You can also add all the personal touches you want to your interactive forums.
Find out what your competition is up to. Find them on the different social media sites and note their techniques. You can opt to do the same and fight for the same type of audience or you can develop a strategy which they have not yet thought of to reach a different audience.
If you give your customers a free promotional product or other free products in a contest, you will find your posts could become viral quickly. You will likely see an increase in followers and have people sign up, if they may win something for free. Make sure that you tell everyone who won, to increase the believability in the contest.
Be sure your website is connected to each social media profile you establish. This can be done by adding buttons on your site that will let your customers share your content via their own social profiles. These buttons need to be included on your main website, RSS feeds, and blog posts so your customers can share the content they like.
Be active and comment on other people's posts. Social media is all about interacting, being social and visible. A simple way to become more popular is by starting dialogues with others whose blogs are in the same niche as yours. That can provide wonderful opportunities for networking.
Social Media
On public forums, always keep good relationships with forum members when promoting your business. The users may buy your products, so you should use all of your comments to provide useful information, as opposed to trying to force people to buy things. Establish a friendly rapport with users, and be consistent in giving them useful information.
Social media marketing is an increasingly popular and efficient way to attract new interest in your business. A great asset to your business will be if social media users make positive reviews of your products, or spread other information regarding your business. Special offers will encourage your audience to interact with you and share your content.
YouTube can be a great tool to launch other social media marketing campaigns that you have running. YouTube is widely used and hugely popular. You can take advantage of this by knowing how to set up a YouTube profile. Fill your profile with useful information about you and your business, and post an obvious and easily accessible link to your site or blog.
Use social media to post coupons with expiration dates and time-sensitive promotions. People will want to make a purchase right away if they have a time limit to follow. In addition, they will probably share this deal with their own social media network.
Use social networks to create anticipation around events. Offer your customers a preview of current projects or products in the works to give them time to build anticipation. This will prepare your subscribers for your newest opportunities — and have them anticipating it.
To keep your social media marketing efforts interesting and informative, create and post YouTube interviews with experts in your field. Not only will this be of great interest to viewers, they will believe that you are the authority on your niche.

Why invest in Turkey?
Turkish economy is in strong growth and strong financial institutions such as HSBC, Financial Times & Goldman Sachs identified Turkey as one of the most promising 4 countries of the world for investors. Turkey's roaring economy has earned it the nickname "New Tiger" among foreign investors. Real estate investment in Turkey became mainstream quite a few years back, especially when the government showed, and proved its willingness to tame inflation and promote further internationalisation of the Turkish economy. The majority of the experts highlight investing in real estate in Turkey as a safe option because of the security provided by its NATO membership and a secular government in place.
Available lands in prime locations are becoming increasingly scarce in Istanbul, which is causing the property prices to increase rapidly. This, coupled with the recent change in Turkish legislation whereby former reciprocal restrictions have been lifted and now practically all nationalities are permitted to buy in Turkey, resulted in high demand for Istanbul properties.
What makes Turkey a good investment country?
The risk-reward ratio of investing in Turkey at the moment is possibly one of the highest in the world and it's one of the safest houses in the neighbourhood.
Turkey is rewarding investors with growth spurred by a young and educated workforce, modern infrastructure, a large domestic market, multiple free trade agreements and a liberal and reformist investment climate along with a decent financial system and corporate governance.
Turkey has made considerable advances in its export sectors by keeping the lira competitive against the euro and other developed currencies and fiercely outperforming Euro-zone countries.
What is the financial performance of Turkey?
The Turkish economy rebounded from a severe crisis in 2000-2001 to emerge as the fastest-growing economy among the OECD countries and second fastest among G-20 countries, with a growth rate of 9% in 2010 and 8.5% in 2011. It is on track to become the leading OECD economy through 2017, with annual growth set to average 6.7%.
How much foreign investment is there in Turkey?
Direct international investment hit $17.6 billion in 2015, a 75.7% jump from 2015. Turkey is a destination for wealthy Middle East investors, thanks to its stable government, good demographics, access to many interesting and well diversified markets, a decent financial system and corporate governance. Further incremental $5 billion investment is expected into Turkish real estate by foreign investors in 2016.

It's not just that you're looking at a real-deal code-44 1969 Oldsmobile 442 hardtop coupe that's priced quite nicely... It's that you're looking at a stellar classic American muscle machine that went through a 10-year full restoration completed in 2016 to make sure this feels fresh and authentic. In fact, the only piece that isn't period-correct is under the hood, and we don't hear any complaints from muscle car fans about extra V8 power.
The 442 has always been a balance of power and luxury, and it just seems like the '69 car tipped the scales towards performance. The Crimson Red is a bold an aggressive color that only deepens the intimidation factor through the super-slick shine from an investment in a professional modern paintjob. The aggressive streak continues with black hood stripes, 442 badging, full-width rear spoiler, and proper Mag-style SS1 wheels. But above all, you want this Olds because of its style. They did amazing things in '69, like the trim line that starts at the headlights and highlights all the great curves of the Holiday Hardtop's sheetmetal. Plus, we know you love the way the trunk, taillights, and rear bumper are all part of one interwoven design.
The interior was also given all the right investments on this classic. So stepping inside feels like stepping into 1969. The handsome buckets have a nice intricate pattern and plenty of comfortable bolstering to perfectly deliver the 442's dual luxury and performance personality. In between the buckets is the optional center console that's a very desirable option. Of course, as an Olds, there's plenty of burled walnut applique on the dash and console. And, when the wood is this nice, it actually does a very fine job of adding character to the interior. Everyone benefits from features like the power windows, AM/FM radio, and heat/defrost, but this is a true driver's car at heart. The four-spoke sports steering wheel should look familiar to any sporty Olds fan, and beyond that, the triple pod gauge package with large speedo and tach feels downright European.
Olds fans were a bit confused in '69 why GM didn't lift its displacement restrictions and allow the larger 455 cubic-inch V8 in the hot 442. This car rectifies that conundrum, and the extra large Olds big-block is under the hood for a more potent muscle car. The Rocket 455 V8 received plenty of attention during the restoration, and so it looks terrific with the golden block and bold red air topper radiating power from within the slick black engine bay. In fact, the whole painted motor masks a few extra performance upgrades such as the Edelbrock aluminum intake and Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. This added power fires up with authority and makes a great rumble as it exits out of the header-fed dual exhaust. So even with all these upgrades, this real-deal 442 still properly lives up to its namesake – 400+ cubic inches, four-barrel carburetor, and dual exhaust – a true '69 4-4-2! As usual with an Oldsmobile, no matter how much power it's putting down, it still has the luxury of all-day usability. This comes from features such as the power steering, power brakes, and a three-speed automatic transmission. And as you look over the undercarriage photos, you'll begin to spot all the details that make the difference in a full restoration. After all, new bushings might look like a small element, but they make all the difference out on the road.
The sale comes complete with restoration photos, build receipts, and even a dyno sheet for the big V8. A total package like this never stays idle for long, so don't miss out. Call today!!!

3. Find the perfect expressions
Now that you can start writing your personal statement, you need to start writing by using the proper words and expressions so you can make it look more professional. Instead of using "did", "done", "do", you can use work like "accomplished", "achieved" and many others which can eventually give a sense of more professionalism and better vocabulary.

Hospital's patient-centered philosophy is supported throughout, down to their flooring choice.
Slidell Memorial Hospital is a community-based facility in metropolitan New Orleans whose "feel better faster" philosophy helps patients heal and get on their way home as quickly as possible. To support this philosophy, they selected noraplan environcare™ premium rubber flooring from nora systems, Inc., as their floor covering.
The decision to use this resilient rubber flooring was based on a wide range of benefits to both patients and caregivers. "Installing nora is just all around the right thing to do to heal the patient," says Jeffrey Singley, a hospital director with responsibility for environmental services. Hospital officials value nora flooring's durability and sound-absorption. Staff members appreciate the comfort underfoot and the minimal maintenance required. And administrators believe the floor helps create a great first impression while cutting maintenance costs by 18 percent a year.
"Floor finishes, stripping and waxing—it's all a thing of the past," Singley says. "There's just no need for it anymore, not when you have this product."
The nora® floors also help the hospital maintain mission-critical standards for hygiene. "One of the things that makes our flooring so wonderful is that we have flash coving that extends from the floor up the wall," says Anita Becker, director of critical care services. "There are no corners or crevices for dirt and grime to get into." Singley agrees, adding, "It is easy to clean, it is aesthetically pleasing and it is not breaking down."
The simple cleaning regimen also benefits patients. "Our patients are very sensitive in the ICU to smells and to sounds," says Becker. "So, the fact that we don't have to use heavy equipment to clean our floors or heavy chemicals to clean and strip them is a wonderful addition to the system."
The absence of coatings and finishes also enhances the slip resistance, she says, adding, "Oftentimes, we are moving at a pace that requires us to move more quickly and respond promptly to our patients, without any hesitation due to a fear of falls, trips or slip hazards."
Hospital staff members also appreciate the comfort that nora premium rubber flooring provides. "My caregivers are impacted by the flooring every day, every hour, every minute of every 12-hour shift they work," Becker says. "They walk miles and miles in the course of a single day, so having a flooring system that supports them and provides comfort makes all the difference at the end of a 12-hour day or a 25-year career."
Hospital leadership sees their new floor as a strategic investment, a key support for its patient-care objectives and a positive reflection of the facility and its staff. To learn more about how nora premium rubber flooring supports compassionate care and a patient-centered culture at Slidell Memorial Hospital, read the full project profile.

Week 2 without sugar in the books. Woke up this morning at 206, which makes roughly 7 pounds in two weeks. At this point, it seems pretty clear that diet is potentially playing an even more important role in the weight loss than the exercise; I was certainly getting stronger, but the weight didn't really start to come off until the diet change. I'll probably start to try finding ways to vary what I'm eating, because I'm getting a little tired of eating almost the same thing every day, but it's getting the job done right now.
Losing weight is always an interesting process since I see myself in the mirror everyday and can't really see the difference on a day-to-day basis. That may be one of the hardest parts of losing weight – not being able to see a quick or immediate impact, needing the stamina to get through multiple weeks before really starting to see results. But now that I'm in this far and have seen some success, the drive and desire to keep going continue to grow.
So, short update today. We'll see if anything new changes over the next week.

I have a list where i have added 3 container fields that stores files. 2 of them are Excel files and one of them is a Microsoft Visio file. (over a network diagram if it matters), its a local DB, using FM Pro version 184.108.40.206.
I have created a script that use TemporaryPath and filename of the container and then export field content.
It works great for my excel files but for some reason not for the Microsoft Visio file. am getting a error.
"An error (100) occurred during the action open file. Visio cannot open the file because its not a visio file or has become corrupted"
I have importat about 10 of these Visio files in the list and all files have been checked that they do work locally.

Levitra Original
Like other erectile dysfunction medications, such as Viagra Original 50 mg and Cialis, Levitra Original 20 mg causes the walls of your blood vessels to relax. This improves the blood flow to your penis which helps you to get and keep an erection. Levitra is a prescription medication that helps men with erectile dysfunction to get and keep an erection. Levitra Original 20mg contains the active substance vardenafil. It has a very sparing action and that is why more and more men tend to take the original drug instead of other drugs for potency improvement. The side effects of Levitra 20mg are minimal though the effect of the medication is excellent. It lasts up to 6 hours and comes within half an hour after administration.

If you are facing financial crisis, just like car repair, unexpected large electricity bill, a payday loan can help you in this regard. However, it is quite important to keep in mind that high APRs and quick repayment period shows that payday loans are quite expensive. Prior to borrowing any amount, make a budget for total cost of loan that even includes the amount you have to pay back and fees.
Process of Applying for Payday Loan in California
You can easily apply for short- term loan online or at store location. You can easily submit online application form from anywhere; you will need documents for proving that you are resident of California. For getting the California short-term loan, you need to write a personal check for the requested amount to lender.

A guide to being called a termite
I am a Jewish resident ("settler") living in Judea and Samaria. Two years ago, I moved from Boca Raton, Florida to a beautiful town in the land of Israel called Mitzpe Yericho. My small yishuv (town) of 450 families sits nestled among the most stunning desert mountains that overlook the world's oldest city — Jericho. I've lived here for 736 days and each one is a dream come true.
When I scrolled through the news yesterday, I was shocked to learn that an American member of Congress referred to my neighbors, wife and me as, "termites." Adam Kredo, a senior writer for The Washington Free Beacon (whose work I greatly admire) reported that, at an event sponsored by an organization called The US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation, Rep. Hank Johnson of Georgia compared Jewish people who live in disputed territories to termites that destroy homes.
"There has been a steady [stream], almost like termites can get into a residence and eat before you know that you've been eaten up and you fall in on yourself, there has been settlement activity that has marched forward with impunity and at an ever increasing rate to the point where it has become alarming."
I've been called worse for living here. I've been called a murderer (not true), occupier (not true), and human rights abuser (also not true). "Termite" is a new one, and it really struck a chord. I was angry, and my visceral reaction was to strike back. I wanted to post horrible things about the congressman on social media and ask my friends and students call his office to protest this awful insult.
Yet, I am a rabbi and I take our Sages' directive to give the benefit of the doubt seriously. So I decided to call his staff to investigate. I explained to his staff why I felt hurt by the congressman's comment, and informed them that I would publish a formal letter with two expectations and would appreciate a response to it within 24 hours. My letter states that I believe Congressman Johnson fails to understand the nuances of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. I'd like him to apologize. I also want him to visit these disputed territories and hear from the Jewish residents first-hand to get a better understanding of our perspective.
I just got off the phone with a member of Congressman Johnson's staff. I've been talking and emailing them for the past day. The staffer relayed this message from the congressman:
I welcome and look forward to meeting with the Jewish and Israeli community at home and abroad. I view this as an opportunity to engage in open and constructive dialogue on the complex issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Further, the congressman's staff relayed his apologies to me and told me they are making plans for the congressman to visit me and hear my side of the story and that the trip will take place during Congress's August recess. I frequently host groups from all over the world on my porch in Mitzpe Yericho which overlooks Jericho, the Jordan Valley and even Amman. I look forward to helping him understand why I believe that Jews have a right to live in Judea and Samaria, and why my neighbors, family and I are not obstacles to peace with our other neighbors, the Palestinians.
It would've felt so good to blast the congressman, call him all sorts of names and express outrage. But that's not how Jews act. I do not believe that Jews should act impulsively. We try to resist our base impulses by thinking, dialoging, and trying to understand and relate. We listen and we talk.
Will I be able to convince the congressman that "settlers" aren't termites? I don't know. I do know that acting hastily, shooting back without expressing myself in a civil manner, would've gotten my neighbors and me nowhere. Because I responded the Jewish way, at least now we have an opportunity to educate a man whose decisions impact the families of Judea and Samaria.

So, If you're not new round these parts, you'll probably know that a few days ago I turned fifteen.
This time, I wanted to show you what I've unwrapped this time.
Just a little disclaimer: I don't love my friends because they give me great presents, although they really do, but just because they're the best part of my life so please, don't get a wrong sense of this post.
First thing I've received is the Mac Vegas Volt Lipstick. You know I craved it, as I put it in my wishlist, but I didn't actually believe to get it. I've never had a Mac lipstick, and I knew I had to own one, because literally everyone talks about them. After trying it a few times I can affirm that quality makes the difference, trust me. There are so many good lipsticks all over drugstores but nothing compares to these ones. I was really well impressed since the one I've got is not matte, neither a dark colour, but it lasts more than six hours even eating or drinking without drying your lips. In other words, the lipstick of your dreams.
Then, I finally received the Naked Basics, which is amazing. Browny matte colours are the main ones in my daily makeup and I love them, as they can be soft but also very chic. It's not easy to find a good palette with this range of colours and I definitely can't wait for the Basics2 to arrive in Italy. The eyeshadows are creamy and so highly pigmented, they're very longlasting and they blend together very well.
Another little (but great) package came in the same sephora bag of the Naked palette. It was the Benefit They're Real Mascara, about which almost everyone thinks it's the best mascara ever. You can bet on it, it definitely is! There are loads of beautiful mascaras that are a lot cheaper but this one goes beyond every single one. I can't actually explain how it looks, but let's start from the colour: a cool deep black I love. It lenghtens, curls, volumizes, lifts and separate my lashes in a perfect way. It doesn't dry out.
The brush is absolutely one of the greatest I've ever tried: not too big, not too small (but at the end it has a little ball that helps you getting to the inner corner of the eye, without smudging. Love it.
Moving from a gift to another, I've also received the Chanel Vitalumière Aqua Foundation which is absolutely gorgeous, you can bet on it!
It has a very light formula, that covers redness and blemishes, although it's thought for those days when your skin doesn't need to much to conceal. In fact, it seems as a second skin, it's so soft and it smells so good.
So, big thumbs up Chanel!
I also opened to Brandy&Melville bags, in which there where in the first, a beautiful grey soft sweater and a gold necklace I'm totally in love with.
In the second one I found a black cropped top, which doesn't actually cover my back, and it's veery cool!
I love this brand, because it always has really comfy but also smart stuff.
Then, I received a very pretty dress from my parents, which is from Muji. When I first tried it, I thought it was a bit too long for me, as it ends to my knees. But after a few times wearing it, I've become to appreciate this kid of lenght, maybe because it's a bit unique. I love it because it's the perfect autumnal dress, long sleeves, cozy but chic at the same time.
As you might have noticed, I really enjoy baking. One of my girls gave me the two cutest cake pans ever. One has a cupcake shape and the other one is a dress. They're so funny and I think I'm going to make a cake and post it on the blog.
Another thing I've got from my grandma' is the Philips Lumea Comfort IPL hair remover, which I'm excited to try, as I can't get on with my hairs at all. I think we are going to become great friends, if it really works.
Another gift from the party was the Oysho sleeping mask I had included in my wishlist too! It says "3 minutes more" and I can't stop thinking this is so cute. I don't usually sleep with a mask at home, just because I have good rolling shutters, but when I'm away, I always bring it with me. In fact, I can't stand waking up due to the light in the early morning, I really prefer the sound of the alarm. Erm... Well, let's say that at least the alarm rings at the right time, not before it!
Last but not least, I finally got a DSLR, a Canon700D, that's not actually a present for my birthday but yeah, mum bought it for the family - though I'm the one who uses it the most. I'm so grateful to my mother for this, since I've craved it for so long and again, I've seen that quality makes the difference. I enjoy photography a lot, and my parents also decided to give me the chance to learn it with some photography classes. So excited!
So this was my looong list of what I've received this time! I'm really grateful to my friends which made everything happen, from the Pink Party, to this.
Well, hope you've liked it, and we will 'see' again very soon!
So this was my looong list of what I've received this time! I'm really grateful to my friends which made everything happen, from the Pink Party, to this.
