Wyoming Mail Forwarding
Get Wyoming Mail Forwarding Today
With our Wyoming mail forwarding, you use our address for whatever you need, you get your mail the same day it comes, and you have a great looking Wyoming address. We know that receiving mail at an in-state address for your Wyoming LLC or corporation is one of the top concerns for businesses operating inside and outside of our state. That's why we offer a variety of different mail forwarding packages—so you can find the right mail forwarding package for your Wyoming business.
A big thing to consider when choosing a Wyoming mail forwarding service is what kind of address will you have? If you use someone in a place like Jackson Hole or many areas in Wyoming, you'll have to get your mail at a PO Box. Many towns in Wyoming do not have street delivery, so people have to provide you a PO Box if you want mail there. You're transacting business wherever you are and you give someone a PO Box in Wyoming to get your mail at, you're going to look sketchy.
The other addresses to avoid are home addresses. Many registered agents in Wyoming will do this as a side job offering you their home address. That doesn't look very legit when you give someone your company name at a random home address.
And lastly, we feel a Cheyenne address where there's 20,000 companies already there looks bad as well.
Not only are we the cheapest Wyoming mail forwarding option, we feel we are the best option. You can get our free Wyoming mail forwarding by default when ordering a Wyoming LLC, a Wyoming Corporation, or when we're your Wyoming Registered Agent. And as an added bonus, we're now including a free 60-day test run of our Wyoming Phone Service for every client that signs up for mail forwarding, business formation or registered agent service. Wyoming Phone Service is a virtual phone line you can use on any device, complete with calling, texting, voicemail, and Caller ID. With a price of just $9 a month after the first 60 days, maintaining your business phone line (and protecting your personal phone number) won't break the bank.
Wyoming Mail Forwarding Package Options
With all our packages, you can use our address for your business, domain registrations, checking accounts, investments, deeds, and whatever you need to maintain a Wyoming presence to whom you do business with.
- Free
Wyoming mail forwarding is included at no additional charge with each Wyoming registered agent service order. We open and scan your mail to your online account daily. When you receive the digital scan, you can request the original copy to be mailed to you for $15 per item. With our free Wyoming mail forwarding, we will scan up to 5 items per year.
- $50 a Year Scanning
With this digital mail scanning option, we will open and scan your Wyoming mail to you daily. The first 10 items are included, then we charge $15 per each additional scan. You get a unique suite number that only your business has.
We also offer Wyoming virtual office service for $30 a month. This service includes an actual 8-page lease with our landlord, and Wyoming Phone Service (a fully-functional virtual phone line with a 307 area code). When you sign our lease, you will be assigned dedicated office space, as you'll be leasing actual office space in Wyoming. Included with this option is the choice of whether you'd like us to open and scan your mail daily to your online account, or if you'd prefer that we simply scan the front of the letter and forward the item upon request. Having a Wyoming lease also provides you some further options to establish your Wyoming Nexus. We've written a page outlining how to get a Wyoming phone number for free.
How Does Wyoming Mail Forwarding Work?
- When you sign up for Wyoming registered agent service, you'll be given the option of choosing a mail forwarding plan ranging from free to a $50 a year mail forwarding option.
- Once you've paid and completed our registered agent signup, if you select a Wyoming mail forwarding option, in addition to your free online account, your business will be assigned its own unique address in Wyoming.
- We will begin receiving and scanning mail on your business' behalf. Scanned items will be uploaded to your online account.
- Each mail forwarding package has monthly or yearly limits. Once your limit is reached, we will scan your incoming mail at a rate of $15 per item. You can upgrade mail forwarding packages at any time.
Do Items Received by My Registered Agent Count Towards My Mail Forwarding Limit?
No. Service of process or official notices from the Wyoming Secretary of State do not count towards your monthly or annual mail forwarding limits. Junk mail never counts towards your mail count. Only actual mail that you had come here counts towards your mail forwarding limits. So if you pissed off your neighbor and they send you a nasty letter, that doesn't count. We accept those kind of letters as your registered agent.
What About Junk Mail?
Junk mail (mail solicitations) will be shredded upon receipt, unless you tell us to do otherwise. Junk mail does NOT count towards your mail forwarding item count.
What Constitutes "Regular Mail"?
Mail that will be opened and scanned is mail that looks like regular mail. Items like bank statements, handwritten letters, and other real mail items will be scanned. However, we respect your privacy and do not read your mail, so there is the chance that something you consider to be junk will be scanned from time to time. We process hundreds of letters a day and we tend to error on getting the client the document. If this is a concern, we recommend you upgrade to our $30 virtual office plan and select the scan and forward option. That way, we'll scan the front of the envelope and forward only the mail you request to be forwarded. We're pretty good at knowing junk mail vs regular mail. When we get a junk mail batch it usually comes in boxes.
What Can You Use Our Address For?
One of the things that clients like best about us is that we let clients use our address for everything, but if you want us to receive your mail and forward it to you, just sign up for our free mail forwarding service. We're the only Wyoming registered agent that offers this service for free. Please, take advantage of it.
How can I use your mail forwarding service?
Simple. If you already have a company, you just get a registered agent below and we'll change the agent to us, and we'll set up your mail forwarding.
If you want to form a company, you simply select the option to get mail forwarding on the form a company tab below:

Angelina Jolie's fresh approach to Sleeping Beauty holds its lead on its second week of release.
Maleficent, Disney's live action reimagining of the Sleeping Beauty tale, has dominated online movie buzz in the UK over the past week.
According to Way To Blue's UK Movie Buzz Chart, the Angelina Jolie feature generated 25,172 comments on social media, with 6,890 of those expressing an intent to view.
This was leagues ahead of comedy sequel 22 Jump Street, which opens this week and generated 10,661 comments of which 5,645 had intent to view.
Seth Macfarlane comedy A Million Ways to Die in the West and Tom Cruise actioner Edge of Tomorrow both commanded strong levels of comment, topping the 7,000 mark.
But Cannes opener Grace of Monaco, starring Nicole Kidman, which opens in the UK this week could only manage 517 comments – and just 156 of those expressed intent to view.

This project is designed to enable the learner to:
Step 1: Problem identification and diagnosis
The first stage in the decision-making process is recognizing that a problem exists and that action has to be taken.
Unless the problem is identified in precise terms solutions are very difficult to find. In seeking to identify a problem, managers can use a variety of sources of data including comparing organizational performance against previous years or the current performance of other organizations.
Problem identification must be followed by a willingness to do something to rectify the situation. Before taking action the problem needs accurate diagnosis. Diagnosis involves assessing the true cause of the problem.
Step 2: Identification of alternatives
Managers should try to identify as many alternatives to solve the problem as possible in order for the broad options for the organization. In generating alternatives the organization may look toward ready-made solutions that have been tried before or custom-made solutions that have to be designed specifically for the problem at hand.
In today's business environment more and more organizations are applying custom-made solutions to enhance competitive advantage.
Step 3: Evaluating alternatives
Having identified the available alternatives, a manager needs to evaluate each alternative in order to choose the best one. Consideration should be given to the advantages and disadvantages as well as the costs and benefits associated with each one. Most alternatives will have positive and negative aspects and the manager will have to try to balance anticipated outcomes.
When evaluating alternatives managers may consider the potential consequences of alternatives under several different scenarios.
Step 4: Choice of alternatives
Having evaluated the various alternatives the next step is to choose the most suitable one. If for some reason none of the options considered are suitable then the manager should revert back to step 2 and begin again. When there are suitable alternatives and Steps 2 and 3 have been conducted skilfully, selecting alternatives may be relatively eased.
In practice, however, alternatives may not differ significantly in terms of their outcomes and therefore decisions will be a matter of judgment. In coming to a decision a manager will be confronted by many conflicting requirements which will have to be taken into account.
Step 5: Implementation
Once the decision has been made it needs to be implemented. This stage of the process is critical to the success of the decision and is the key to effective decision making. The best alternative is worth nothing if it is not implemented properly.
In order to successfully implement a decision, managers must ensure that those who are implementing it fully understand why the choice was made, why it is being implemented and are fully committed to its success.
Many organizations are attempting to push decision making further down the organization to ensure that employees feel some sense of ownership in the decisions that are made.
Step 6: Evaluation
Having implemented the decision, it then needs to be evaluated to provide feedback. The process of evaluation should take place at all managerial levels. This step allows managers to see what the results of the decision have been and to identify any adjustments which need to be executed.
In almost all cases some form of adjustment will be made to ensure a more favorable outcome. Evaluation and feedback are not on-off activities and should form part of an ongoing process.
As conditions change decisions should be re-evaluated to ensure that they are still the most appropriate for the organization.

The aerodynamics team's areas of responsibility are the exterior geometry paired with the control elements for active altitude control, their surfaces and materials, and the resulting aerodynamic stability. The developed parts are optimized in terms of aerodynamics, mass, functionality, and manufacturability. Besides, we try to apply the most modern manufacturing methods available to us.
During the entire development process from the concept, followed by the design to the actual construction, CAE is applied in the form of CAD, CFD, and MATLAB simulations. Furthermore, we examine the applicability of generative design to find optimized shapes for fins and nose cones.
By the summer of 2020, different airbrake concepts have been designed, two of which are being implemented and continuously developed for the prototype rocket.
Another part of our work is the integration of a 360-degree camera system into the nose cone of the rocket to document the flight.
People with an interest in CAD, additive manufacturing including generative design, CFD, MATLAB, tinkerers, and hobbyists - Buzzword "Curiosity" - are in good hands with us and welcome at any time.
Airbrakes are mechanical systems that may be actuated after the engine cut-off to decelerate by increasing the air resistance, e.g. by radially extending baffle stones, to achieve a targeted apogee.
There is a multitude of technical challenges:
- The time between engine cut-off and the targeted apogee is only a few seconds long
- The positioning of the airbrake as well as the alignment and arrangement of the flaps to not endanger the stability of the rocket itself
- Minimizing mass with maximum strength to ensure efficiency
- Solutions for adjacent systems, such as a central fuel line, with possible positioning between engine and tank
- Maximizing the area of the flap
The geometry of the nose cone and the fins, as well as the general, external shape, are determined. Where we rely on simulations, which are supported by measurements in the wind tunnel. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the airbrakes in the wind tunnel will be determined by force measurements.
But there are numerous challenges:
- Compensation of openings in the outer skin or possible, minimally protruding camera lenses
- Weight and flow optimization to ensure efficiency
- Scaling and estimation of tests in the wind tunnel at significantly lower speeds
- Preventing or minimizing rotation during flight
- Durable paints and surface treatments for speeds above Mach 0.5
- Vibrations and their consequences on the camera system
- Analyse problems, externally mounted elements, such as an antenna

Organization's guidance helped my business
It's Farm Bureau Week in Iowa. I feel compelled to give a thank you on behalf of the entire Precision Metal Works team to the Iowa Farm Bureau and the Rural Vitality Fund for helping strengthen our company and create jobs in the Maquoketa and the Jackson County area.
I have had the opportunity to participate in several regional programs the Iowa Farm Bureau coordinates. Of note are the "Journey to Your Vision" seminars put on by the organization's Renew Rural Iowa program to provide incredible value to small business owners in rural areas of this state. The free seminar helped Precision Metal Works and me look at our business in a whole new light, and the perspective gained was well worth the time invested.
In addition, the Iowa Farm Bureau played a critical role in helping the Precision Metal Works team through the difficult economic downtown in 2008. They stood by us with business guidance and financial support when no one else would. They led us through the tough business landscape, allowing us to exist today as a strong and growing business in eastern Iowa, in large part due to their guidance and support.

Most people do not realize the importance of web design in Milton Keynes and surrounding areas. Website design has proved to generate a lot of traffic in the past. Also a better user interface also encourages the website viewers to actually buy from that website. There are several reasons why website design is important for the business and they are discussed below.
A good website design provides easy navigation through the website which makes it a vital part. If your website contains a lot of pages, then web design must be done in a way to reach those pages easily without any difficulty. In order to make navigation easier, web design must be done in a way that it includes a navigation bar and several labels as well which help in differentiating between different pages. This way the visitors can travel through the website conveniently.
Website design also consists the task of incorporating the brand logo in the design. There are several companies who have a unique brand logo for identification and it needs to be included in several print materials as well such as business cards and letter heads. Our webs design studio in Milton Keynes has efficient designers who can efficiently carry such brand logos with different colors into the website design without any problems. It is very important that customers recognize your brand name and your position. As providers of quality web design in Milton Keynes we ensure that web designing is done in a way that it is understandable to everyone, even an ancient caveman. We have the best staff at our disposal that is ready to introduce an intuitive design to your website without oversimplifying it.
There are people still around here who still prefer reading web pages in the same way they used to read a book or a newspaper. Our web design in Milton Keynes ensure to take into account such factors while designing websites. We use the trick of placing all the important things on the upper left corner. In this way most people will be able to read the important information instantly and the message can be conveyed easily and successfully. For example if your business has a new deal or sale, we can put it up in the left hand column where users look the most. This way you can get a lot of sales out of our technique.
By conveying the message successfully to customers you can enjoy several potential customers converting into confirmed customers. Most businesses do not even know that placing important information on the upper left column improves SEO. For example if your business sells hardware and computer online, if we put up such keywords in the left column, search engines like Google will easily detect those keywords and will award you a higher placement in the search engine. Such keywords can be put in html based text in the upper left corner for prominence and SEO which will increase your website�s visibility and accessibility as well.
Web design is the most important part of making a sale and is actually the first step towards online success. An innovative design can not only bring more customers but also push your competitors out from Milton Keynes area.
This Web Design to promote business article can be found on our website. Martin from www.miltonkeynes-webdesign.co.uk is an expert in Web Design Milton Keynes so please feel free to contact him if you have any related questions.

Professional Web Design Company vs Freelancer
Jul 4, 2011 - 3:25:13 PM
Web design has become a necessity in today's world and there are many that offer these services. Many companies are out there who are complete professionals and on the other hand we have the freelancers who can be good at what they do and also who cannot. There has always been a debate on hiring a freelancer or a graphic design company. When you want a website for your company you want the best and it has to be developed by someone who can deliver the best. A freelancer can offer you lower rates but you can never have a guarantee of good quality work. So let me tell you why you should hire a professional company and not a freelancer. It is true...

Mobile Application Development - A New Dimension to Communication
Jun 11, 2011 - 9:22:27 AM
In the past the post and telegraph were the means of communication. This was followed by the advent of television and fax. The computers and the mobile phones were the next to follow in the evolution of communication. The mobile phones allowed not only audio but also the text messages to be sent and received from a transmitter to the receiver. The advent of the internet took the communication sector by a storm. Internet depends on the connectivity, compatibility of the browser and the computer to display. The desktop PC hardly allowed any mobility so the lap tops were engineered. Now these lap tops did not fit the palm and were a bit difficult to carry.... [Read the full story]
Why Should A Designer Never Stop Learning?
May 14, 2011 - 12:33:35 AM
One can come across good web designs as well a poorly designed websites. When the website is poorly designed it the designer to be blamed. Hardly does anyone peep into the reasons for the website being poorly designed. There could be a number of reasons for that. It is possible that the web designer may be just a novice in the world of web designing or the designer may be expert but not had enough time for creating a quality website.... [Read the full story]

The bell has gone marking the end of National Novel Writing Month 2014.\r\n\r\nIf how I feel is anything to go by, around the world more than 300,000 writers are now looking back on the last thirty days and trying to figure out what just happened.\r\n\r\nWinner badges are popping up across social media for those who smashed or staggered through the 50,000 word mark. However, there are other celebrations too, no less quiet or impressive. These are the people that may have fallen short of the target, but still changed their writing lives.\r\n\r\nKristin's word count progress...\r\n\r\nWhen you start NaNoWriMo it is all about that elusive and enormous word count goal, but as you write, fight exhaustion, obstacles and self-doubt you start to realise something else, something very exciting. Meeting the target isn\u2019t really the point. The real purpose of NaNoWriMo is to encourage writers of any age, any experience level, across all genres to put their words down \u2013 one by one, day after day. It doesn\u2019t matter if you pass 5,000 or 25,000 or even the magical 50,000 words \u2013 what really matters is that you are doing it, you are writing and every day it gets easier.\r\n\r\nKristin's word count started to climb a little later than expected, but she was determined to make it to 50,000 words.\r\n\r\nHalfway through November it looked highly unlikely I was going to come close to the target word count, but as I discussed then, I changed my mindset. I just decided to write whenever I could however I could. To my surprise, my word count climbed and climbed. On some days life kept me away from my story, while other days I became so immersed I didn\u2019t even cook or eat dinner. On those nights, my story carried me along into the wee hours. Sometimes words came as a trickle other times a flood. I was getting addicted and would eagerly await the time I could sit down and write again. Then after a couple of big days of writing I realised with some surprise I was within reach of the target. With a busy weekend ahead (including the launch of the Writer\u2019s Edit Anthology Kindling) I decided to go for it. I knuckled down on Friday night and wrote and wrote and wrote. At some point before midnight I started to wonder, had I done it yet? So I copied my novel into the word count box and clicked \u201cvalidate\u201d. The screen was filled with the word \u201cWinner\u201d \u2013 wow! Twenty-eight days and I had reached the magic number, but what excited me the most was that I had found the self-discipline to write, a lot! I doubt I would have made the same amount of time had I not committed to NaNoWriMo, but because I did I have proven to myself that despite the juggles of family and work, I can write often - there are no more excuses.\r\n\r\nWith two days to spare, Kristin hit the massive 50,000 word target...\r\n\r\nI've still got a bit of my novel to finish and many other stories and articles I want to write. Now I know I can, and will.\r\n\r\nCongratulations to all my fellow winners and even bigger congratulations to everyone who was simply brave enough to sign up and say \u2013 I\u2019m going to write, regardless of how many words you achieved. NaNoWriMo may have come to an end, but for everyone out there don\u2019t think about it as a full stop. Perhaps just insert a dash and keep going - you\u2019ve already proven you can!

As a family of 5, I do a lot of laundry. I have one child with eczema and I suffer from sensitivity to artificial fragrances. I am conscious of the products we use. That's why when I discovered Ecoegg I found it to be the best sustainable living laundry alternative.
My Eco Egg review is not sponsored from Ecoegg however but after posting my review and love for it on Instagram. Ecoegg did send me the dryer eggs for free. As a thank you for sharing their product and bringing traffic to their new U.S. Instagram page.
*This post contains affiliate links and I am an affiliate with Amazon. This means that if you click-through and make a purchase I receive a small commission (at no cost to you). I only write and endorse products I personally use, love and what I find helpful in being an awesome mom. For more details, Click here
Eco egg what is it
The Ecoegg is an all in one product. Made into the shape of an egg. Inside the egg, you place mineral pellets.
These mineral pellets are not made with harsh chemicals. Unlike traditional laundry detergent is.
The pellets dissolve to release the cleaning agent and clean your clothes.
This laundry egg replaces the need to buy laundry detergent and use of bulky plastic jugs.
It has no harsh chemicals, its dermatologist tested, hypoallergenic, and easy to use. It also saves you money. It is not tested on animals either. The company says one egg can wash up to 1 year worth of laundry.
The Ecoegg comes in two versions. 210 washes or 720 washes. The 720 would last up to 3 years worth of washing according to the companies site.
When you open the package you will find a hallow egg, 4 bags of white pellets, and 1 package of grey pellets.
After aligning the triangles you twist the egg to open it and place the pellets inside the large side of the egg. Once in you twist and lock. The egg is then ready to use.
The Ecoegg does offer scented eggs as well as a non-scent version. I have tried both scents and I prefer the spring blossom.
Where is the Ecoegg made?
Founded in 2008 the Ecoegg was introduced to the UK and made there. It's an Allergy UK's 'Allergy Friendly Product' award winner since 2011. It also won the Queen's Award for Enterprise for Innovation in 2016.
How the Ecoegg works
When submerged with water the cleaning pellets activate and release their cleaning power. The water dissolves the mineral pellets. What is released cleans your clothes by weakening the bonds between dirt and the fabric.
It does this by ionizing the oxygen in the water. Cleaning your clothes with-out toxins, artificial fragrances, and harsh chemicals.
One of my readers asked me: How does the Ecoegg know how much cleaning solution to release during a wash?
I reached out to Ecoegg to get clarification on this for my readers: The Ecoegg works with the water level in your washing machine. The two mineral pellets work together to deliver the cleaning solution. It is delivered based on the load size and length of wash.
Where the Ecoegg is not a soap-based detergent you don't have to worry about adding too much. It also is a two in one soap and fabric softener.
Before using your Ecoegg the company recommends using detox tablets for your washer. To help get rid of scum and buildup. This also ensures the egg can work at peak performance.
Also before use of the Ecoegg for the first time you need to pre-soak the egg.
Does the Ecoegg work?
I used the Ecoegg for a week and washed over 10 loads of laundry. When I first wrote this review. This review has now been updated a year later with some tips and things I have learned while using the egg.
After opening the package when I first got it. I placed the egg in a white mixing bowl to pre-soak. I was curious to see if the water would change during the pre-soaking process.
I found the water did change. It became cloudy white. When I placed my hands in the water I could feel the cleaning agent that had been released.
Now after using the Ecoegg for over a year, I can tell you it works and I highly recommend it.
My experience with using the Ecoegg as a family of 5 is it does deliver the cleaning power needed. My clothes are clean and they smell great.
With kids though they tend to make huge messes and have a lot of stains on their clothes. I purchased Ecoeggs stain remover product and instantly fell in love with it. It has taken out several stains with no problem.
Pro tip: If you have a heavier soiled load I would suggest using the stain remover first. Then using the pre-soak option on your machine. To allow the clean pellets time to release the bonds between the clothes and dirt.
Tips for getting the most out our your Ecoegg
Can you use Ecoegg in any machine?
Yes, it works for both top and front load washer. I have a top loader.
Using the Ecoegg in an HE machine
I noticed something when washing larger loads in my H.E. machine the cleaning quality was a little lower. I tried a couple of different methods to figure out why.
If you remember above. The company told me that the Ecoegg releases the cleaning solution based on load size and wash. But the key point is that is works with the water level.
HE machines are designed to reduce the amount of water used. So heavier loads weren't allowing enough water to flow through the Ecoegg. Here is how to fix this.
- When loading your washer be sure not to overload it. The water in HE machines adjusts by weight. But if there too many clothes in the machine there isn't enough room for clothes to agitate. When means that there isn't enough room for the Ecoegg to get enough water to dilute the pellets for maximum cleaning power.
- Based on your machine see what works best putting the Ecoegg in before the clothes or after the clothes. You see if the weight of the clothes holds the egg down it could be not getting enough water. Which hinders water to flow through for the pellets to activate.
- Add vinegar and baking soda to your load for heavy-duty stains. It might need a booster. As a mom, I have kids who love to get really dirty.
- Adjust the water levels on your machine settings. For example, if I select heavy soil the machine will provide more water to the wash.
When do you refill your Ecoegg?
At about 70 washes or so you will need to add more white pellets to your Egg. Initially, when you first put the egg together you don't use all the bags it comes with.
I did not keep track of how many washes I did before I needed to replace the pellets. Yet, I could tell by the scent of the clothes and when the cleaning power wasn't as strong.
You will be able to see the difference as the pellets inside will look a lot smaller after several washes.
Do the clothes smell clean after using the Ecoegg?
Most people do the sniff test when cleaning their clothes. But, most natural detergents don't have scents.
What I loved about the Ecoegg was that it offered two scents as I mentioned above. They also have one non-scented option. The scents they currently offer are fresh linen and spring blossom. (check the company's site for new scents/products)
When using the scented Ecoegg your clothes will have a faint smell. If you are used to that other liquid or powdered soaps overpowering your clothes. This is not what you are going to get nor should expect.
As I mentioned above. I personally can not use regular detergent because of the artificial fragrances.
But the scented Ecoeggs have a very pleasant smell.
Ecoeggs are scented by infusing essential oils in the mineral pallets. I found that to be fabulous.
Something unique I did find was that my clothes felt softer. Since the Ecoegg is a two in one with softener I found that to be a pleasant surprise.
The Ecoegg worked great and exactly as claimed.
Benefits of using an Ecoegg
- Simplifies your laundry chore. Fewer steps in loading your machine to wash and a no thought process. Just toss it in. I actually leave my egg inside the machine the whole time and keep the lid open so it gets airflow. I toss my clothes in and hit the start button.
- The ease of using this egg is perfect. No more measuring liquid for each load. No more liquid to spill or clean up from spills on my machine. All the build-up that would happen in the dispenser I no longer have to deal with.
- When it comes to the kids I will no longer have to worry about them being wasteful or spilling the detergent.
- Easy for travelers. I took the Ecoegg with us during two vacations and I was able to use it to wash out clothes on the go. You don't have to worry about laundry detergent spilling. Especially on clothes or things in your travel bag during transport.
- Perfect washing things by hand quickly on the go. You could travel with this in your car or backpack. All you need is water.
- It's lighter to pack and easy to store.
Cost savings
- Cost savings is greater than any prior laundry detergent I have used. $17 dollars for a year's worth of laundry. It doesn't get any better than that. But I have to note we are a family of 5. So we do more laundry than an average two-person household or 4 person household.
Even with that, you will see significant cost savings. Because you are no longer buying, for example, a container of tide pods for 81 washes.
The pods don't adjust to the water level and so a new one will need to be used each wash. Where the Ecoegg will adjust per load.
Replacement pellets are very cheap.
Environmentally Friendly
The Ecoegg is plastic and can be used over and over again. The pellets dissolve. And everything including the box is recyclable and biodegradable. This company is really great about being truly Eco-friendly.
Ecoegg eliminates the use of plastic jugs completely. Besides, it is so compact. When you buy traditional laundry detergent in bulk it is heavy and awkwardly shaped. Making it difficult to store and limiting where you can store it.
Review of the Ecoegg Dryer Balls
Ecoegg offers a few other laundry products as well. One of those products as I mentioned above was gifted to me.
This is my honest review and this section is not sponsored in any way. I love their products because I believe in them.
The dryer egg balls according to their website can reduce your drying time by 28%. But what I love about the dryer balls is the reduction in chemicals. The great smell my clothes have and how fluffy even my towels come out.
The Ecoegg dryer balls work with scented sticks. These scented sticks are also infused with essential oils.
Ecoegg dryer balls are easy to put together. All you do is insert the stick into the center of the ball. When it is time to replace the scented stick you can buy replacement ones.
I will mention though the scent sticks don't last as long as the Ecoegg. They are good for 40 dries. The dryer stick costs $12.95 for replacements.
Where to buy an Ecoegg
You can buy the Ecoegg on Amazon here. You can also visit their US site at www.ecoegg.net. If you go to www.ecoegg.com – that is their U.K. site.
As I mentioned above Ecoegg offers dryer balls in addition to the laundry egg. They also have stain remover and detox tablets to clean your machine.
In conclusion
In conclusion, I found the Ecoegg to work as they described and have used it on all of my family's clothes and linens.
I do recommend you do the detox tablets first. To rid your washing machine of the prior stuff other laundry detergents have left behind.
The Ecoegg truly is amazing and does a great job. Your clothes smell clean and you feel great about the factor you are reducing your footprint with a sustainable living product.
Join the forces and help save the planet from the detergent that is damaging our waters. Buy using the Ecoegg you are reduce the toxins you are introducing to your family. Not to mention this egg can save you on average $100 a year by switching.
It's another tool I recommend that can make mom's life easier. I give this a two thumbs up.
Wanna try out the Ecoegg for yourself?
What laundry detergent alternatives have you tried? Let me know in the comments below??

Updated 5/6/2020 to improve the route information table and provide additional information on each route.
Zwift includes a wide variety of routes in several worlds, and this gallery provides a collection of maps for the different routes in the Yorkshire world.
Yorkshire was added to Zwift in September 2019 and is based on the route used for the 2019 UCI Worlds in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. The UCI Worlds circuit has been turned into 5 routes ranging from 1.9 miles (3 km) to 17.2 miles (27.7 km) with some moderate climbing.
The following table and gallery provide more details on each route. We're in the process of riding all of these routes, so check back for updates. Most routes in Zwift have some sort of lead-in - the lead-in is the ride to the beginning of the circuit, so don't be surprised when it takes a bit longer than you thought it would to cover the expected distance.
Once you complete a route, you will get an Achievement Badge for the route and earn bonus Experience Points (XP) in addition to the XP you earn for covering the distance of the route.

Yorkshire World HackIf you want to ride Yorkshire whenever you like, there is a hack that is described in the main article in this series. For Yorkshire, use world code 7:
Yorkshire Maps
2019 UCI Worlds Harrogate CircuitLength: 8.6 miles / 13.8 km
Elevation Gain: 803 feet / 245 m
Average Grade: 1.77%
Bonus XP (Experience Points): 270
This route, as the name implies follows the 2019 UCI Worlds route. You'll start out on A61 just north of Tewit Well, turning east towards the Royal Pump room and make a short loop in the streets of Harrogate. You'll pass the Royal Pump room a second time and then head out into the Yorkshire countryside for a longer loop before returning to the start point.
Duchy EstateLength: 1.9 miles / 3.0 km
Elevation Gain: 131 feet / 40 m
Average Grade: 1.31%
Bonus XP (Experience Points) 60
Duchy Estate makes use of the short northern part of the UCI Worlds circuit, staying within central Harrogate for the entire route. There is a short lead-in, and the route is relatively flat, as far as Yorkshire goes. Keep your eyes open for the Royal Pump Room and enjoy the sights of Millionaires' Row.
Queen's HighwayLength: 1.9 miles / 3.0 km
Elevation Gain: 131 feet / 40 m
Average Grade: 1.31%
Bonus XP (Experience Points): 60
The Queen's Highway route is based on the same portion of the Harrogate circuit, but in reverse. It has a slightly longer lead-in, but otherwise nets out to be the same distance, elevation gain, and average grade.
Royal Pump Room 8Length: 17.2 miles / 27.7 km
Elevation Gain: 1607 feet / 490 m
Average Grade: 1.77%
Bonus XP (Experience Points): 550
The Royal Pump Room 8 utilizes the entire UCI Worlds circuit, but in a figure 8 configuration allowing you to cover the entire route in both directions, and effectively doubling the distance of the UCI Worlds circuit. This is currently the longest route in the Yorkshire world.
Tour Of Tewit WellLength: 6.8 miles / 10.9 km
Elevation Gain: 669 feet / 204 m
Average Grade: 1.86%
Bonus XP (Experience Points): 210
This route makes use of the longer southern portion of the UCI Worlds route, bypassing the short northern part of the circuit in central Harrogate and getting you out into the Yorkshire countryside. If you're looking for Tewit Well, you'll come close to it towards the end of the route, but the route doesn't actually take you past it.

We are saddened to report the death on June 28th of Louis Varney G5RV. Louis, the inventor of the world famous multiband antenna called after him was aged 89.
The G5RV is amongst the most popular of all antenna designs and needless to say is in use by many Irish amateurs. It was first described by Louis in the November 1966 issue of the RSGB Bulletin. The G5RV combines the ability to tune up on four or five bands with an efficiency and compactness not found too often in competing designs. Above all, it is cheap and has allowed countless thousands of amateurs get on the air without spending a fortune.
Louis Varney remained an active radio amateur until very recently. His station employed both a full-size and a double-size G5RV and he was particularly well known as a CW operator. He had been a member of RSGB for 74 years and served as Life President of the Mid-Sussex Amateur Radio Society.
Louis Varney visited Ireland a number of times and at one time was the holder of the callsign EI5RV. We extend our sympathy to his wife Nelida and all his family.
Suaimhneas De da anam.
The VHF Field Day was held last week-end. Four EI stations were heard on the air - EI7M (the East Cork Group), EI7KRC (Kells Radio Group), EI0NDR (North Dublin Radio Club) and EI7TRG (Tipperary Amateur Radio Group). Unfortunately, band conditions were far from good and scores are likely to we ell down from last year. Rumour has it that the scoring is very tight and, in the open section at least, it is still anybody's Contest.
Worked All Irish Counties Award This Award has been somewhat overshadowed by the WAI Awards in recent years. No new WEIC Award has been issued since September 1999. Indications are that this situation is likely to change in the near future. Two new WEIC Awards were issued this week and at least two more are in the pipeline. It is clear from the claims submitted that the mobile operations of the WAI Square Bashers have been instrumental in re-activating interest in WEIC and, more importantly, in generating the QSL cards for some of the rarer counties. The certificates issued this week were: Award No. 66 to Don Sharples G4ZMB and Award No. 67 to Brian Russell G0NSL, both of whom were able to demonstrate contacts in all 26 Counties. Congratulations to both Don and Brian and it is to be hoped that their achievements will encourage others to chase up those last few outstanding cards.
For many years, the outgoing QSL Bureau has been in the efficient hands of Bill Mitchell EI5GQ and his late wife Sheena EI9GP. Bill has now decided that he will spend a significant amount of his time abroad and he has reluctantly submitted his resignation as Outgoing QSL Manager. The Society is deeply grateful to Bill for the great work he has done on its behalf and wishes him bon voyage on his travels. He promises to be on the air within a few months with a ZS callsign so we hope to retain contact with him.
All cards in Bill's hands have been, or are about to be, despatched. Any cards en route to Bill's QTH will be redirected to the new QSL manager so the QSL bureau should suffer little or no disruption. A new QSL Manager will shortly be appointed. Details of how to submit cards to him will be given on the Radio News and in the Newsletter. In the meantime, cards for the outgoing bureau should be addressed to P.O.Box 462, Dublin 9 and not to Bill Mitchell's QTH.
A Slide Rule and Abacus Exhibition featuring items from the private collection of Liam Brady EI9DVB is under way in the Dublin Central Library, Ilac Centre, Henry St., Dublin 2. The Exhibition continues until 29th July and may be viewed during the Library opening hours. These are Monday to Thursday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is Free. For those who remember the Slide Rule, this is an opportunity to indulge in some nostalgia, while for those who do not remember, why not come along to see some pre-calculator technology?
Tom EI3HH who was the person largely responsible for the introduction of the CW Radio News Bulletin on 80 meters 6years ago has been forced through ill-health to retire from his position as 'newsreader'. He was recently admitted to Hospital and passed the Sunday morning bulletin to Pat EI9EZ. His many friends and regular callers to the CW news wish him a speedy recovery and hope to hear him back on the 'key' in the not too distant future. The Society is grateful to Tom for his dedication and commitment over so many years and is pleased to see that despite Tom's retirement the CW Radio News will continue.

I delegate like a boss.
"So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, "It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word."
- Acts 6:2-4 (New International Version)
It's a little awkward for me to explain to people sometimes that I've been a freelance graphic designer for almost ten years now but I didn't even design my own book cover 🙈
Of course I started off designing it. I went in thinking "clearly I'm a BOSS at graphic design so I have no need of investing in a designer, plus I needs to save me some coin anyway so I got this!" Halfway through the design process I stepped back to look at what I'd created so far and it just. wasn't. right. I felt God nudging me to go ahead and seek help outside of myself and I finally threw in the towel on my crusty little design and found a designer.
It was NOT easy. Up to that point, my identity as an entrepreneur had been "Marlena the bomb graphic designer". Now I was treading new waters on a project where my primary role wasn't to design; it was to write, and to minister and to make sure that everything concerning this book project was on point. Even if that meant finding a better designer than me to do the cover. This experience taught me one of the greatest lessons I've learned to date:
There comes a time when you have to delegate your lower talents in order to focus on fulfilling your higher calling.
In my case, I had to let go of being a designer to be a higher version of myself. And this is something I'm still letting go to this day. It's hard leaving a piece of your identity behind! But truly, by being obedient to God and writing my book, He's now shown me so much down the path this book is taking me that I can't turn back now. This is the direction I'm supposed to pursue and it would be ridiculous to try to hold on to designing when God has so much more for me to experience and create.
Is there something you're holding on to right now that you need to consider letting go? Some talent that you've been great at for so long and that has so much of your identity wrapped up in it but you know deep down it's time to move on? Or maybe there are just things in your business that it's time to delegate so you can focus on the work you're best at.
Whatever it is, if God is giving you that nudge, go with it! And get excited about it too! I know it's hard to let go of a piece of who you are but letting go opens up your capacity to receive new facets of your identity that God is trying to reveal to you. You're so much more than that one talent! Just like our heavenly Father, you are a multi-facetted being with gifts & talents galore inside of you. Go ahead and free yourself to explore more of who you are. Your highest calling, giftings & potential are waiting for you and so are the people you're uniquely created to serve.

ISRAEL HAYOM (by agreement with JNS)
Biden's Drive to War in the Middle East
by Caroline Glick
February 5, 2021
On Monday, Iran tested a new rocket. The Zuljanah rocket is a 25-meter (82-foot) three-stage rocket with a solid fuel engine for its first two stages and a liquid fuel rocket for its third stage. It can carry a 225 kg (496-pound) payload. The Zuljanah's thrust is 75 kilotons, which is far more than required to launch satellite into orbit. The large thrust makes the Zuljanah more comparable to an intercontinental ballistic missile than a space launch vehicle. The US's LGM-30G Minuteman-III land-based ICBM for instance, has 90 kiloton thrust. The Zuljanah can rise to a height of 500 kilometers for low-earth orbit or, if launched as a missile, its range is 5,000 kilometers (3,100 miles) – far enough to reach Britain from Iran. READ MORE

|1959 EFTA Founded Great Britain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, Austria and Portugal established the "European Free Trade Association" as a counterpart to the Common Market.
|1959 Singapore Independent Singapore became an independent state on June 3, 1959.
|1959 Uprising in Tibet Fighting broke out between Communist Chinese troops and the local population, who were rebelling against Communist rule. The Communists put down the rebellion, dissolved the Tibetan local government and forced the Dalai Lama into exile.
|1959 Degaulle Agrees to Vote on Algerian Independence French casualties continued to mount in Algeria. France's position that Algeria was part of their country was under attack throuhout the world. Thus, French President DeGaulle bowed to what seemed the inevitable and agreed to a referendum in Algeria on independence.
|1959 St. Lawrence Seaway The St. Lawrence Seaway was opened on June 26. The Seaway, which was a joint Canadian-American project, allowed ships to travel to the Great Lakes, thereby opening American and Canadian lake ports to sea transportation.
|1959 Alaska Admitted to the Union On January 3, 1959, Alaska became the 49th state admitted to the Union.
|1959 Hawaii Admitted to the Union On August 21, Hawaii, the "Aloha State," joined the Union.
|1959 Kitchen Debate During a visit to the Soviet Union by US Vice President Nixon, he and Soviet Premier Khrushchev engaged in a so called "kitchen debate" on the merits of Communism and Capitalism. The debate took place at the opening of the American National Exposition in Moscow.
|1959 Castro Seizes Power in Cuba On January 1st, Fidel Castro marched into Havana after Cuban dictator Batista had fled. Castro, who had led the successful revolution against Batista, was widely welcomed-- even by the U.S. Castro soon signed a friendship treaty with the Soviet Union. He also confiscated large agrarian holdings. As far as the United States was concerned, these two actions transformed Castro from a freedom fighter into a Communist.
|1959 X- 15 Makes First Flight The "X-15 Rocket" Aircraft made its first flight from a B-52 Bomber in 1959. The plane set many speed records, obtaining a top speed of Mach 6. The X-15 was used to test many concepts later used in the space program.
|1960 Failed Summit in Paris The summit at Paris took place in the shadow of the Russian downing of an American U-2 fighter over the Soviet Union. The Soviets, led by Khrushchev, used the summit as a means of scoring a propoganda victory over the US. The summit, thus, accomplished nothing but to raise the level of rhetoric on both sides.
|1960 Sino Soviets Split An ideological split developed between the communist Chinese and the communist government of the Soviet Union. The ideological roots of the dispute lay in the more pragramatic approach to world affairs that Premier Khrushchev was taking. In addition, the long-simmering border disputes between the parties began to effect their relations.
|1960 Syngman Rhee Resigns Syngman Rhee was re-elected for a fourth term as President of South Korea in March 1960. Demonstrations broke out protesting that the elections had been rigged. On April 19, police fired on demonstrators, killing 127 people. On April 27, Rhee resigned.

|1960 Belgian Congo Independent On June 30, an independent Republic of the Congo was created, with Joseph Kasavubu as President and Patrice Lumumba as Premier. A civil war broke out when Moise Tshombe declared the Kantaga Province independent. The Congo government appealed to the U.N. for aid, and troops were dispatched. Kasavubu tried dismissing Lumumba, who had asked for assistance from the Soviet bloc. When Lumumba refused to be relieved, Col. Joseph Mobutu, commander of the Congo military, took over the government. Lumumba was captured and killed. The secession in Kantaga finally came to an end in 1964, when government forces took Albertville.
|1960 U-2 Downed A U-2 spy plane, piloted by Francis Gary Powers, was shot down by the Soviet Union. The downing resulted in the complete failure of the four-part summit meeting held in Paris on May 17, when President Eisenhower refused Khruschev's demand for an apology for past aggression against the USSR.
|1960 Polaris Missile Fired The United States Navy test-fired a Polaris Missile from a submarine. The successful firing of the Polaris allowed the United States to base a substantial portion of its nuclear deterrent forces on submarines, where they were safe from a successful first strike by Soviet forces.
|1960 USS Enterprise Launched The USS Enterprise was the first aircraft carrier to be powered by nuclear reactors. The nuclear reactors freed the Enterprise from the need for refueling.
|1960 Planes Collide On December 16, two airliners collided over the skies of Brooklyn, NY. The two planes involved were a United DC-8 and a TWA Super Constellation. There was only one survivor. The DC-8 was scheduled to land at Idlewild, while the Super Constellation was going to land at La Guardia. This crash, and a previous crash over the Grand Canyon, spurred the government to overhaul the national air traffic control system.

Biryani House is a small, neat Bangladeshi eatery just west of the Highway 29 – Indian Trail intersection in Lilburn, in a small strip mall south of the road, next to a halal grocer. This kind of small store is becoming a pattern along Indian Trail, and finding time to look into each one a little tricky. These are restaurants that, because of their small size, allow the patron a chance to get away from the steamed foods of Indian buffets. What you get here is freshly prepared. And if you have a preference – mild or spicy – places like this can accommodate you.
These are the ideal spots for chicken 65. Anything fried, that needs to be hot coming to the plate, will be best prepared in a South Asian restaurant of this kind. And the chicken 65 here did not disappoint.
Unusual in this dish are the spices and aromatics that accompanied the meats. The spicing was relatively mild (even though I asked for spicy) but grew on you as you ate. This was one of the better chicken 65 dishes I've had in Atlanta, good enough to go back and order take out.
I had beef kabab as well, unusual in that they used whole meat instead of ground beef. Spices were found in a layer outside the meat. I didn't know going in the restaurant was Bangladeshi, so I wasn't expecting anything other than generic IndoPak foods. But I've been surprised with every dish I've tried so far – not a bad thing really.
Staff here are friendly, and easy to talk to. I had no problems asking for additional spice on my chicken 65, for example.

LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Shares of EADS advanced as much as 11% on Monday following the Pentagon's landmark move to bypass Boeing Co. and award a $35 billion contract to build a new U.S. Air Force tanker to Northrop Grumman and its European partner.
The Air Force is expected to buy 179 refueling planes over the next 15 years to replace its tankers. Aftermarket revenue for parts and maintenance could add another $60 billion to the deal.
The decision is a major and unexpected blow to Boeing
For EADS, the $35 billion order is a landmark victory that seals its efforts to expand in North America and grab a larger part of the U.S. defense budget. The project will dramatically increase the company's footprint over the Atlantic, raise its profile and give it its "long-sought-for breakthrough into the U.S. defense market," said Goldman Sachs analysts. They added that EADS' Airbus and MTA subsidiaries should benefit as well.
Deutsche Bank analysts upgraded EADS to hold from sell on the news, calling it a "major and unexpected positive." They estimated the contract would boost the company's revenue by $25 billion to $28 billion.
The decision however, triggered a political upheaval in the U.S. on concerns about potential job losses to Europe.
In early New York trade, Boeing lost 4% while Northrop Grumman
In Paris, EADS (005730) shares advanced 8% in afternoon action. See Europe Markets.
EADS Chief Executive Louis Gallois said in a statement that the deal signals a "quantum leap forward" in the company's commitment to the U.S. defense customer and supports its strategy to balance its defense and commercial portfolios.
EADS found itself in deep financial trouble two years ago when its flagship A380 program suffered a round of delays. At the time, the company stressed its intention to spend more time and money to develop its defense operations so as not to depend entirely on the success of its commercial programs for its financial survival.
Good news for Europe's defense sector
The tanker contract is a bonanza for a European defense industry starved of major projects in recent years. European suppliers are also set to receive orders from the deal and celebrated it as a lifeline for the industry.
"Everyone who builds components for that plane in Europe is going to do well. And Cobham is going to do particularly well as its makes the refueling system," said Peter Hearne, a consultant with U.K.-based Aeroex.
In the U.K., where the wings of the aircraft will be manufactured, EADS said the contract will bring $6 billion worth of work and help to secure 9,000 jobs. Shares of engineering company Cobham (COB) bucked the lower London trend, rising 3% in midday trading.
The British arm of GE Aerospace Systems, formerly known as Smiths Aerospace, is also expected to benefit.
U.S. suppliers, however, won't completely miss out on the project.
The aircraft's frame will be built at Airbus' new Mobile, Alabama center of excellence and final assembly facility. Overall Northrop said 60% of the plane will be built in the U.S. and the project would support 25,000 jobs. Boeing claims it would have created 44,000 had it won.
A political hot potato
The decision to award the contract to EADS and Northrop will be a hot issue in politics this week, particularly as the U.S. economy is slowing and manufacturing jobs are at stake.
Hilary Clinton, who is vying for the Democratic party nomination, late Sunday said in a statement that she was "deeply concerned" about the current administration's decision to "outsource" production of the tankers. She added that she found it "troubling" the government would decide to award the contract to a team including a European firm it is simultaneously suing at the World Trade Organization for receiving illegal subsidies.
Likely Republican nominee John McCain, meanwhile, finds himself in a difficult position as he headed a 2004 investigation that led the Air Force to scrap plans to lease the tankers from Boeing.
Criticism of the current administration's decision to award the deal to EADS and Northrop mounted over the weekend as many U.S. observers warned of its consequences at a time when the economy is struggling and firms are cutting jobs across sectors.
"We expect plenty of sound and fury from sympathetic legislators, who will aggressively seek an alternate outcome," Thomas Weisel analysts cautioned. While the broker said it doesn't expect a reversal of the award, it noted that it could delay its launch for a year or more.
Bear Stearns suggested the program could stall until after the presidential elections.
It's not the first time, however, that the U.S. has bought military equipment from abroad. High-profile orders in recent years have included a new Army helicopter built by EADS and the presidential helicopter, which is built in part by Italy's Finmeccanica (FNC).
Britain's BAE Systems (BA), meanwhile, has long been a key player in the U.S. defense industry. It bolstered its position through the purchase of tank maker United Defense Industries in 2005.
Turning to the technical arguments and the part they played in the decision, consultant Hearne said they were finely balanced.
Air Force officials cited the larger Northrop/EADS tanker's ability to carry more passengers and more cargo, but also highlighted its flexibility and dependability.
"The comments imply that the sheer size of the A330 outweighed the lower operating costs and smaller footprint of the 767," said Thomas Weisel analysts.
Hearne, however, believes the decision came down to the U.S. government's fear that Boeing was developing a monopolistic position.
"I see this as a move to prevent them from getting too cocky and a way for the U.S. Air Force to have a wider choice of suppliers and more leverage on pricing," he said.
He cautioned, however, that EADS would have to work hard to deliver on the project. Although the company has overcome its problems with the A380, it recently announced delays on its A400M military transport aircraft.
"They may have dug themselves out of the A380 hole but they're going to have to raise their game," Hearne said.

According to my pal Micah Sifry, Ross Perot is considering a 2004 comeback and it's not good news for the Repubs:
But should we really just treat Ross as a bad joke? My read of his proposal is that he is serious about addressing the country's economic problems, furious at the GOP's irresponsible tax cuts and anxious to return to the national stage, possibly with some form of grass-roots movement by his side. For anyone who remembers how little respect Perot has shown for the Bush family over the years not only did he break Poppy Bush's hold on the White House, in 1994 he went out of his way to publicly endorse the Democratic gubernatorial opponents of both George W. in Texas and Jeb in Florida there's an intriguing subtext to all this: Ross may think that by launching this new effort in time for 2004 he can crack the Republican lock on power again, to stop the party's "radical agenda" and prevent a "fiscal disaster."

Alumni Choir combines musical talent, memories
February 8, 2012
The Mehlville School District's Community Education Department is expanding its class offerings to better serve its community, and at least 97 district alumni are singing its praises.
One of the newest classes offered through Community Education is an Alumni Choir led by Mehlville High School and Oakville High School choral directors Angie Hendrick and Paula Martin, respectively. Ninety-seven graduates of the two high schools have signed up for the 16-week class, representing choral classes from the past two decades.
"They all loved to sing with Paula and I when they were in high school," Hendrick stated in a district news release. "After they graduated, many would talk to us about how much they missed it. They told us we should have a community choir so they could sing with us again."
Martin and Hendrick decided to grant the wish of their alumni by creating a community choir through the Mehlville Community Education Department.
The vocal talents from both high schools converge at the Oakville High School Choir Room Monday nights, where Hendrick and Martin lead their former students in choral music from several time periods and genres.
"The response has been amazing and very gratifying," Martin stated. "The best part is rediscovering their favorite pieces, laughing about old memories, working with adult voices, and not having to write any passes, count tardies or keep attendance. We can just make music."
To inform MHS and OHS alumni about the development of the community choir, Martin and Hendrick utilized social media, made announcements at their fall choir concerts and spread the message using word-of-mouth.
"By combining both OHS and MHS alumni together, it truly is a community choir," Hendrick stated. "It is so much fun to hear them sing again with each other, and just as much fun to direct all of them again. Paula and I are not even tired at all afterwards — even after teaching all day. They rejuvenate us."
The Alumni Choir's 16 weeks of rehearsals will culminate with a concert for their families and the entire community in May.
For more information about joining the Alumni Choir, visit the Community Education's webpage on the district's website at

As the compensatory picks changed the order of the 2020 NFL draft on Day 3 for the Indianapolis Colts, we ran a full, seven-round mock draft to see what the haul might look like.
Because the first four picks of the draft are the same for the Colts, nothing changed there. They grabbed their future quarterback and a potential WR1 early on. For full analysis of each selection in the mock draft, check out the original post.
Here's a quick rundown of the latest mock draft:

Kelley Wentworth explains why she returned for Survivor: Edge of Extinction
- TV Show
Kelley Wentworth's Survivor career has been anything but easy. She's pretty much had to play from the bottom in both her outings (Survivor: San Juan del Sur and Survivor: Cambodia — Second Chance) — always fighting against the grain and trying to crack the majority. Throw in a so-close-but-just-not-close-enough finish to Second Chance (when she was one day away from the final 3 and, potentially, one million dollars), and you could see how she might be frustrated by her time on the island.
But Kelley is back for her third shot at the money as one of four returning players competing in Survivor: Edge of Extinction (premiering Feb 20 on CBS). Why put herself through this all over again? How has she changed as a person since we last saw her play? How does she think she would have done in Second Chance had the final four fire-making twist been in place back then? And would she consider playing for a fourth time if this one doesn't work out? We travelled out to Fiji and talked to Kelly just before filming began, and here's what the fan favorite had to say about embarking on her latest adventure.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Kelley, why come back and do this again? Why are you here?
KELLEY WENTWORTH: I don't know. I think I'm out of my mind.
Yeah, I kind of think you are too.
I'm out of my mind! Enough time has passed, I just feel ready. I feel like you can't always let opportunities pass you by. And, still no kids. I'm married now, but it's just like you never know in the next few years what might be in my life and this just seemed like the perfect time. So, ready to try again.
You said it's the perfect time. What does that mean? How have you changed as a person? What's different about you coming into this game? Because we all change from year to year a little bit, so how are you different not as a player, but as a person from when you played the first two times?
Yeah, that's a good question. I am married now so that has taught me a lot about patience. So, I am working with that. And then this past December my grandmother passed away, so I feel like that taught me a lot about just kind of handling emotions, and relationships with family, and being more vulnerable in some ways and just talking through things. Like, I'm a very closed-off person, I don't tend to say how I feel all the time. I would rather run from an argument than be involved in it, so I think I've just learned how to be more open and emotional. I think that's going to help me in this game too just with my relationship with people.
All you really know as we sit here about this season is that David Wright is playing, because you two traveled out here and are staying together. What or who else is awaiting you out on the island? What do you think they have cooked up for you in terms of other players or a theme?
I never know what the heck is coming my way. And there's this weird, now call me crazy, there's this weird part of me that feels like they've got two more people somewhere — like they're trying to make David and I think it's just us, but there might be more. That's how I feel. Is that weird? I don't know.
When you say "two more people," what do you mean? You mean two more returning players?
Yeah, returning people. I don't know why, I just feel it. I could be wrong, and I hope I'm wrong.
Why do you hope you're wrong?
I feel like if there are more returning people, that's bad for me. I don't want to start in a tribe with anyone. I don't want to be associated with anyone. I want it to just be me, and the new people just get to know me and not have to worry about any other relationships.
So, what's your relationship then with David? What do you think about him as a player and how do you feel about working with him?
I have never met David, I've never talked to David. I think we've had a few interactions on social media at one point when he was fourth out. I get good vibes from him, so I feel okay in saying that I would work with him at some point. But I don't know what he's thinking so I don't want to just say all out "Yeah, I'm going to be besties with David!" But, initially, he's got a good aura, I feel good about him. And I kind of know his style of play, I think it's a little similar to mine. So, we could maybe connect on that.
Well, if you guys are returning players coming into a season against new players — if that is in fact what's happening — is that an advantage for you guys, or a disadvantage, or both? How do you feel about that dynamic?
There are a lot of ways to look at it. I initially think it's a disadvantage because I think people have seen our game. These other new people I have never seen their game and I have no idea what they're going to do. They know what I've done, idols I've found, things I've said to other people, alliances I've had. I would love to spin it into an advantage like "Hey, here's how I can help you guys," and make them feel calm, and express my experience in the past, and hopefully have them want to work with me. So, I think it really depends on who is out there. It just depends on the personalities, the tribe I start on. Anything can happen.
If that's the case and there are a bunch of newbies out there, do you think they'll be starstruck by Kelley Wentworth?
I wanted to say to Jeff when I saw him earlier today, I wanted to say, "Now, you've got some Kelley Wentworth fans, right? You did make sure that on the application they said Kelley? So, I hope so. That would be ideal.
You made it to the final four your last time, and then you got voted out. So, I'm very curious of what you think of that new final four fire-making challenge twist?
How did I know this would come up?
Of course it's going to come up!
I think it's interesting. I think Survivor always has to add in new things. I mean, I understand why they did it. I think I would have liked it in my season.
How would you have done in your season?
I think I would have probably gone against Spencer, and I think I would have pulled it out. And then it would have been me and Jeremy battling it out at the end. But, can't think about that, it doesn't matter.
Oh, come on! How would you have done against Jeremy at the end?
[Kelley clenches mouth and makes a look like she wants to say something but is holding back.]
Say it.
I think it would be close. I think it would be close. I would hope I would win, but it would definitely be close. I mean, Jeremy's a great player, he's a great person. If I couldn't win, I would want him to win, and he did. But yeah, I think the fire twist is interesting. It's something that I'm thinking about, but I can't concentrate solely on because I need to think about the beginning of the game first.
So, which of your previous seasons did you enjoy more?
Enjoy is a tough word. I guess I would say overall Cambodia just because I got to do more and experience more, and I made it further. But it was also very hard. Very hard.
It's your third time doing this. Will this be the last time you play? Could you see yourself being a four-timer? A Cirie, an Ozzy, a Boston Rob, or Rupert — could you join those people?
I don't know if I could do four times. This game takes so much out of you, so my only goal this time is to win so that I don't even have to entertain the thought of coming back.
Let's say you were playing against Kelley Wentworth. Would you want to work with her? Would you want to get her out early? What would your book be on her?
I feel like I want to work with Kelley Wentworth. Here's one important thing I think to note is that I really was loyal to the people that I was with in Second Chance. I really was. I worked with freaking crazy Abi-Maria for how many days? I do love Abi, she's great and Survivor is very tough. I made the moves I made because I was playing from the bottom. I didn't have a choice really in order for me to stay alive. So, I would play with me, yeah. Hell yeah!

Aaberg is the alias of South London's Hunter Mockett. Last year he debuted with Albatross, and today, he's announcing the follow-up, Jynx. Its lead single "Shallow," premiering here today, is a hushed observation. Mockett sings in a whisper, letting his flexuous guitar work do most of the emotional undulating.
"'Shallow' was actually one of the first tracks written for the album and one of the last to be recorded," Mockett wrote to The FADER. "It has a few opposing forces running through it, which became kind of a theme on some of the tracks that followed for the album." Stream "Shallow" below, and preorder Jynx here.

Wildflower enthusiasts gather near Joshua Tree National Park
A small group of about a dozen students and volunteers set off Saturday from Twentynine Palms to learn about wildflowers.
Darrell Shade, a botanist and desert naturalist, led the Desert Institute's "Wildflower Wanderings" course that started at the Oasis Visitor Center on the edge of Joshua Tree National Park.
On their journey, the group visited Sky's The Limit Observatory and Nature Center to learn about the wildflowers appearing in the high desert and check out what had bloomed. After finding some on the grounds, Shade said he's hoping more wildflowers will bloom in April.
