Brazil's far-right president Jair Bolsonaro has derided Greta Thunberg after the teenage climate activist added her voice to growing international condemnation of a surge of anti-indigenous violence in the Amazon.
"Indigenous people are literally being murdered for trying to protect the forrest [sic] from illegal deforestation. Over and over again," Thunberg tweeted on Sunday alongside a video showing the aftermath of a drive-by shooting targeting indigenous leaders that left two dead.
"It is shameful that the world remains silent about this," the 16-year-old campaigner added.
Bolsonaro – who activists accuse of green-lighting a new era of destruction and violence with his hardline anti-environment rhetoric – hit back on Tuesday.
"Greta's been saying Indians have died because they were defending the Amazon," a smirking Bolsonaro told reporters outside the presidential palace in Brazil's capital, Brasília.
"It's amazing how much space the press gives this kind of pirralha," Bolsonaro added, using a Portuguese word that loosely translates as "little brat" or "pest".
Bolsonaro had initially failed to remember Thunberg's name, labelling her simply "that girl".
Thunberg appeared to take Bolsonaro's disparagement as a badge of honour, changing her Twitter biography to "Pirralha".
Thunberg is far from alone in challenging Bolsonaro over the spike in rainforest destruction and attacks on indigenous communities during his first year in power.
Brazil's Indigenous Missionary Council rights group reported in September that 153 indigenous territories had been invaded since the start of 2019 – more than twice last year's figure of 76 – and said Bolsonaro's "aggressive" talk was partly responsible.
Recent weeks have seen a spate of deadly attacks on indigenous activists.
After Saturday's killings in the northern state of Maranhão, Brazil's former environment minister, Marina Silva, tweeted: "This Amazon bloodbath demands a strong and swift response from Brazilian authorities."
"We have been cut adrift and left unprotected by the Brazilian state," wrote Sônia Guajajara, a prominent indigenous leader.
In a recent interview, the Amazon senator Randolfe Rodrigues said Brazil's native peoples stood at a historic juncture as Bolsonaro pushed ahead with plans to open their lands to commercial mining.
"Not since the [1964-85] dictatorship have Brazil's indigenous peoples felt as threatened as they do now," Rodrigues said.

I love Stella McCartney's lingerie line this season, especially these gorgeous sheer shorts! It's a bit pricey and sometimes tricky to find in the States but certain pieces are available at Net-A-Porter. If you're in NYC you can visit her store in the meatpacking district, La Petite Coquette, Barneys New York, or Bergdorf Goodman. I also love these super cute day-of-the-week panties.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday called for everyone to work together to ensure there is no shortage of oxygen in the next Covid wave, also Seeking to move on from the controversy over a Supreme Court-appointed panel report on the capital city's oxygen demand.
The virus will win if we fight with each other, Kejrwal said.
His statement has come a day after his Aam Aadmi Party and the BJP hit out at each each other over the report that said Delhi's oxygen needs were "exaggerated" four times over during the second Covid wave.
"May we work now if your fight over oxygen is finished? Let us together make a system so no one faces shortage of oxygen in third wave," Kejriwal said in his tweet in Hindi.
"There was an acute shortage of oxygen in the second wave. It should not be so in the third wave. Corona will win if we fight with each other. The nation will win if we fight together," he added.
While AAP leaders accused the BJP of "cooking up" the report from the Supreme Court appointed committee, the saffron party charged the Delhi government with "criminal negligence". Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia alleged that the "bogus" and "misleading" report was "cooked up" at BJP's office and submitted by the Centre in the apex court.
The sub-group constituted by the Supreme Court to audit oxygen consumption in hospitals in the national capital during the second wave said the Delhi government "exaggerated" the consumption of oxygen and made a claim of 1,140 MT, four times higher than the formula for bed capacity requirement of 289 MT.
The five-member panel, headed by AIIMS Director Randeep Guleria, said the Delhi government had made the claims for allocation of 700 MT oxygen on April 30 of medical grade oxygen using a "wrong formula".
Two members, B S Bhalla, Delhi government's principal home secretary, home, and Max Healthcare's Clinical Director Sandeep Budhiraja, questioned the conclusions.
Bhalla gave his objections and comments on the 23-page interim report shared with him on May 30. The report has an annexure of communication sent by Bhalla on May 31 in which he said a reading of the draft interim report makes it "painfully apparent" that the sub-group, instead of focussing on the task, delineated from the terms of order of the Supreme Court dated May 6.
The manner in which the proceedings of the sub-group were conducted, he said, suggested that the purpose of proceedings was to satisfy a "preconceived and predetermined conclusion and narrative to recommend a lower quantity of LMO to Delhi". It was also aimed at further portraying an impression that the assessment by the GNCTD (Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi) before the high court and the Supreme Court was "exaggerated or not genuine", Bhalla added.
He said in his note that there is no gainsaying that this kind of exercise does not further the "spirit, intent and objective" of the order of the Supreme Court under which the sub-group was constituted.
Bhalla also objected to the finding of the sub-group that medical oxygen consumption as per actual bed occupancy was 250 tonnes in late April, 470-490 MT in the first week of May and 900 MT as claimed on May 10.
"This para should be deleted as it is neither correct nor based on verified data. With the number of new positive cases peaking in the first week of May, and hospital bed occupancy continuing to rise even after that, the Oxygen requirement based on occupancy was around 625 MT at the end of April and 700 MT in the first week of May," he said.
Regarding the finding that "exaggerated" oxygen requirement claims were made by the Delhi government, Bhalla said the GNCTD clarified that the calculation for 700 MT has been made in accordance with standard oxygen requirement specified by the government of India/ICMR, which is 24 litres per minutes (LPM) for ICU beds and 10 LPM for non-ICU beds.
"Doubts about the percentage of non-ICU beds that need oxygen can only be resolved through an actual on-ground audit of hospitals, which the audit sub-group is yet to do," he said.
As controversy spiralled on Friday, Kejriwal reacted to developments saying his only "crime" was that he "fought for the breath of two crore people" of Delhi.
"...When you were doing an election rally, I was awake all night arranging for oxygen. I fought, pleaded to get oxygen for people."
"People have lost their loved ones due to lack of oxygen. Don't call them liars, they are feeling so bad," Kejriwal said on Twitter.

TIPS: Choose Your Web Address Wisely
Because when I'm leaving a voice mail for a prospect, I like to spell out my web address so they can check out my online portfolio and resume.
Because of my stunning lack of foresight, it usually goes something like this. (Combine this messy spiel with my goofy accent and it's easy to imagine marketing director's head exploding.)
"To see my online portfolio and resume, visit duble-u duble-u duble-u dot Sarah dash Maurer dot com. Haha, let me spell that for you. It's Sarah with an 'h' dash mike alfa uniform romeo echo romeo dot com."
I knew it was way too much for people when a very nice lady called back and said, "I didn't get that last part. Was that in code?"
Gah. If I had been smart, I'd have made my business name the domain. Then I could just say, "Visit my online portfolio at zipline media dot com."
Food for thought if you're going to be setting up a commercial writing business. Especially if you plan to do much cold calling.
How do others with crazy names get around this?
1 comment:
Hi Sarah. I stumbled on your blog and I must say that you've inspired me. I'm going to take some time to go through it all today. I'm seriously rethinking my entire business after hearing about your success. I haven't read "The Well-Fed Writer" yet, but I'm going to. I'm not afraid of cold-calling (I know, strange huh?) and I'm pretty excited to see a real person detailing her experiences for me to learn from.ReplyDelete
I wish I had thought through this issue before I started. Now, I'm wondering what to call my business so that I can get off the ground in the right way when I "relaunch." http://www.jessewrites.com is easy enough, I guess, but probably not easy enough on the phone. "That's J as in, um, uh, Jasper, then e as in, um, elephant?" :)
Thanks for the encouragement. Apparently, I've got a lot of reading to do.

Opened: May 23, 1997
Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Jeff Goldblum, Julianne Moore, Vince Vaughn, Pete Postlethwaite, Vanessa Lee Chester, Arliss Howard, Richard Attenborough, Peter Stromare, Harvey Jason, Richard Schiff, Thomas F. Duffy, Ariana Richards & Joseph Mazzello
A sequel to the hit 1993 film Jurassic Park, there's big adventure but little payoff in The Lost World.
John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) tricks Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) into joining a team, including his girlfriend Sarah Harding (Julianne Moore), going to a second island where dinosaur testing happened. Meanwhile, Roland Tembo (Pete Postlethwaite) is set on bringing dinosaurs back to the mainland.
There are some good features about this film. Goldblum's Ian Malcolm is an iconic character and shows Goldblum in his best quick-speaking form and the dinosaurs are fun to watch.
However, there's just too much that doesn't live up to the original. There's almost too much chaos bringing a T-Rex into the US and some of the characters are annoying reimaginations of ones from the first.
Final say: Best left in the past. ★★☆☆☆

What is Cosmetic Dentistry? Your Guide to Cosmetic Dental Procedures
Did you know that the cosmetic dentistry industry is projected to be worth over $27 billion by 2028? More and more patients are opting in for procedures that will improve their smiles. Advances in dental technology have also made it easier for people to fix their teeth.
Although many cosmetic dental procedures aren't covered by traditional insurance, they're still a popular option. What is cosmetic dentistry? Read on to learn all about how you can achieve the smile of your dreams.
What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is an umbrella term for procedures that make your teeth look better. Sometimes cosmetic dental procedures stem from underlying problems with your teeth, like the need for crowns or veneers.
These types of procedures vary in price and invasiveness, depending on what your overall goal is for your teeth. The main goal of cosmetic dentistry is for you to feel satisfied with your smile and confident in your teeth.
Cosmetic vs Traditional Dentistry
When you think of a dentist, generally what comes to mind is someone who cleans your teeth, does fillings, and focuses on preventive care. This is known as traditional dentistry. The goal of traditional dentistry is to limit the need for dental work and preserve your natural teeth as much as possible.
A cosmetic dentistry practice will do everything that a general dentist does, but with an emphasis on the appearance of your smile. Cosmetic dentists often have procedures like orthodontia and dental implants available to their patients.
Common Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures
There are so many ways that you can enhance your smile through cosmetic dental procedures. Many patients even use a combination of treatment options to achieve their ultimate result. Here are some of the most common procedures that you can get from a cosmetic dentist.
If you have cracked, discolored, or crooked teeth, then you should consider veneers as a solution. Veneers are a quick way to fix many different problems with your teeth in a short period of time.
Unlike crowns or dental implants, teeth do not have to be removed or shaved down in order to get veneers. They fit onto the outside of your tooth and act as an additional layer, rather than a replacement.
An added benefit of porcelain veneers is that they are resistant to staining. Once you get your veneers, they will stay pearly white and clean as long as you take care of them.
If you have crooked teeth, veneers can solve the problem without waiting months or years, like with braces. However, veneers will cost more than traditional braces or alignment trays.
Crowns are a popular choice for dental restoration because they work best for damaged teeth. Usually, your dentist will require you to get a crown after a procedure like a root canal, to protect the tooth.
However, many people get crowns for purely aesthetic reasons. Since the crown is a tooth replacement, it can also solve problems like decay or crooked teeth.
Unlike veneers, crowns are sometimes covered by dental insurance providers if needed for good oral health. For example, a crown for severe decay or root canal treatment can help to reinforce and strengthen the tooth.
Crowns come in all different types of materials depending on your preference and what your dentist recommends. Porcelain is a reasonable choice for front teeth. However, for molars, you may need stronger material due to constant pressure from chewing.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the most common cosmetic dental procedures. It is usually cheaper than the other options but produces a fantastic result if you want your smile to shine.
When dentists do whitening procedures at the office, they often use bleach. The dentist will protect your gums from the solution and they may use a curing light to achieve quicker results.
Your dentist can even provide you with whitening trays that you can continue to use at home to maintain your look. That way, you can skip some visits to the office and still have good-looking teeth.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a similar type of treatment to crowns. Rather than shaving the tooth down and using a cap, the tooth is removed completely and replaced with a screw.
When you get implants, there is a lower risk of tooth infection overall. This is because the entire tooth is removed, so you will not have to worry about tooth decay or damage.
Once teeth are taken out, there is usually a waiting period while your implants are made. This will also allow for swelling to go down and your gums to heal before your dentist places the implants.
Although they usually cost more, implants have a longer lifespan than other types of dental restoration. You may save a lot of money in the long run by investing in implants.
Unlike crowns, dental implants are not often covered by insurance companies. Therefore, if you opt for this cosmetic surgery, then you may have to pay for it out of pocket.
Orthodontic Treatment
If you have crooked or misaligned teeth, orthodontic treatment may be the best option for you. Two of the most common treatment procedures are traditional braces and alignment trays, such as Invisalign.
Even though many orthodontic patients are children or teens, you can get your teeth fixed at any age. Braces can fix crooked teeth and also improve jaw health and other issues.
If you are self-conscious about metal braces, then you can get clear alignment trays. The treatment period varies and you simply have to get a new tray every month or so while your teeth shift.
Consider Cosmetic Dentistry for Your Dental Needs
You may still be wondering, what is cosmetic dentistry? If you think cosmetic dentistry may be right for you, then you should consider how you want to change your teeth.

Chloé Rose Tangerine EDT
This is a fresh and vibrant perfume that drops off a delicate rose scent on the skin. The Damescena Rose Absolute is twisted with Magnolia that expresses its white floral and luminous facets. Chloé L'Eau is the essence of white purity. It is a dew of lightness and naturality where the rose absolute merges with a sparkling fruity top note.
This authentic opening moves on to the softness of a clear and pure background composed of cedarwood essence, musky note and warm amber accord. Chloé L'Eau minimalist, radiant and feminine flacon is reinterpreted in a pink colour. From the grosgrain hand-tied ribbon, to the juice, it conveys a sensation of delicacy and naturality.

Vienna, VA (PRWEB) August 29, 2017
Registration is now open for the SourceAmerica high school and college Design Challenge, a one-of-a-kind competition blending entrepreneurism, engineering skills and compassion to broaden student perspectives on disability and capability. During the 2017 fall school semester, participants will serve as productivity engineering consultants for a business employing people with disabilities. Then they'll build custom assistive technology for the employees who need it most.
Getting people with disabilities the workplace assistance they need is an issue championed by national disability employment leader SourceAmerica. According to Disability Compendium, only 35 percent of people with disabilities ages 18-64 are employed, and too often they don't get the support necessary to help them reach their maximum employment potential. Student exposure through the Design Challenge to SourceAmerica's mission—creating employment opportunities and choices for people with disabilities—means these future employers might think differently when hiring and building businesses to ensure they are inclusive and accessible to everyone.
"SourceAmerica is empowering students to raise the bar on national workplace support for people with disabilities," said Charissa Garcia, SourceAmerica productivity engineer and Design Challenge program manager. "What many people may not know is how useful technology can be in equalizing their abilities. Students across the country participating in the Design Challenge can be part of this powerful change."
To participate, students form teams and partner with a business employing people with disabilities. They'll apply science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills to build, refine and test their assistive technology solutions, working closely with the employees with disabilities. At the end of the semester, teams will turn in a final video and paper, and will be judged on business impact. Finalist teams will present their solutions while competing for cash prizes in front of a live audience in Washington, D.C.
"Design Challenge students have been the catalyst for countless success stories that have positively changed outcomes for employees with disabilities and businesses," Garcia said. "We look forward to many new and repeat schools participating this year and taking assistive technology to the next level."
Students ready to build their teams should register at http://www.sourceamerica.org/design-challenge. Teachers who'd like more information about initiating Design Challenge participation at their schools should contact Charissa Garcia (email@example.com) or call 703-584-3940.

The former White House budget director and Indiana governor is demonstrating that his green-eyeshade approach works just as well in academia. As president of Purdue University, he's frozen tuition, cut costs by zeroing out administrative waste, and negotiated a deal with Amazon to save students up to 30% on textbooks. No wonder Republican Pooh-Bahs are eager to lure him back to public life. For now, though, he has forsworn a return to politics.

The other day I was sauntering through the television display area of the Omaha outlet of the largest home furnishing store in North America; wall to ceiling, fifty five and sixty inch plus monitors were the norm and they formed a kaleidoscopic walk through tunnel. It seemed that each of the forty or so monitors making up the video walls were displaying the Rio Olympics. Rio 2016 had to be the most televised Olympics ever. The networks and digital platforms of NBC Universal presented 6,755 hours of programming. If the 6,755 hours ran on one channel, it would take 281 days to finish airing. I stood motionless and was absorbed by the walls.
And soon I was back, sitting with other excited spectators watching track and field at the Melbourne Cricket Ground; Melbourne, Australia, was host to the 1956 Olympic Games. I started to think of past Olympic athletes and their exploits.
Dawn Fraser: the controversial Australian Olympic freestyle champion swimmer; one of only three swimmers to have won the same event three times: in her case the women's 100-meter freestyle.
Cathy Freeman: who won gold in the 400m in Sydney; her iconic silver, yellow and green bodysuit paying testament to Australia while her red, yellow and black sprinting shoes honored her Aboriginal heritage.
Eric Moussambani: a swimmer from Equatorial Guinea whose first time in an Olympic sized pool was Sydney 2000; he swam his heat of the 100 meter freestyle in 1:52.72: more than double that of his faster competitors.
The Jamaican Bobsled Team: competed for the first time in the 1988 Winter Olympic Games; representing a tropical country competing in a cold-weather sport: they lost control of their sled and crashed during one of their qualifiers.
Ethiopian Abebe Bikila: who won the Olympic marathon gold medal in 1960 without wearing shoes: running 26.2 miles barefoot.
Romanian Nadia Comăneci: at the 1976 Olympics became the first person to score a perfect 10 for a single routine in artistic gymnastics.
My attention was thrust back to the RIO Olympics video wall; Hiroki Ogita a Japanese pole vaulter had just been eliminated. His Olympic dream crushed by his own donger. He was trying to clear 5.30m in qualifying for the final when his donger aggressively grazed the bar and knocked it off its ledge. I stood mesmerized by the replays and started to wonder how big his package really was. It looked immense on the fifty five and sixty inch plus Samsungs and Sony digital walls.
I remember first being concerned about the size of my donger when I was probably about thirteen or fourteen. The testicles were never considered as part of the donger and had their own name; cods, or knackers. During adolescents, post adolescents, and even into adulthood, a variety of names were part of your genitalia thesaurus; member, the main vein, old fella, wife's best friend, sausage, bed snake, one eyed trouser snake, percy, pork sword, steak bayonet, and the babies arm. And those names became critical components of everyday euphemisms; point percy at the porcelain, sink the sausage, and as dry as a dead dingo's donger. As part of the right of passage into manhood we named our donger. A recent survey by Jacamo, a British men's clothing retailer, revealed the ten most popular nicknames men currently use for their donger are; Troy, Hercules, The Rock, Russell the Muscle, closely followed by Wilfred, Dave, Jerry, Johnny, Randolph, Wendell, and Napoleon.
During summer I would spend the endless sun drenched days at Williamstown beach with Andrew Lambrainew. I remember migrating from knitted wool trunks to Speedo's; to be later known in Australia as budgie smugglers. We would spend most of the time belly flopping on the sandy shallow shoreline, sand fighting, shoulder fighting, and swimming out chest height to have seaweed fights. As we got older we would wait for the girls to walk gingerly down the steps in front of the lifesaving club. And I think it would have been the summer I was thirteen that I started to think about what my donger looked like in wet Speedo's. At low tide the water by the steps was shallow and we would modify our shoreline belly flops by swishing our arms forward to create a tidal wave; splashing water onto the girls. If they screamed we would thrash and splash about in the shallow water without never really standing up; so I never worried about my donger.
When we weren't splashing we would duck dive and swim to the Racer to become part of the line up of pubescent boys sitting on the three plank wood benches on either side of the Racer; our sole purpose in life was to push the girls into the water as they ran the gauntlet trying to find some room on the benches. I think it was accepted by the girls that this was part of our emerging pubescent foreplay. Some would reach into the space between the planks that made up the bench we were siting on and their fingers would curl around a plank; they were impossible to push off. As you tried to push and wrestle them off the Racer their elbows and body would bend in; ending up eye level to your donger. And I remember worrying about the size of my donger. The donger always got smaller in cold water and climbing the wooden ladder to reach the lower ledge and benches of the Racer meant that the nylon Speedo's would cling to the shrunken shriveled donger And you never had time to push your thumb into the front waistband of the Speedo's and pull it out a fraction of an inch to break that suction that formed so the donger could get a little air to breathe. If only camouflage was a color back then: visual noise would have erased the lack of lumps and bumps.
It is important to me to get to the theater before the movie starts. I usually choose a seat about a third into an aisle, and halfway up the theater. I am always seated when the slides advertising local restaurants and plumbing services are still on the screen. The lights are usually dimmed for the coming soon trailers and most people seem to use this time too find their seats. After about the third coming soon trailer it usually begins; someone juggling a huge container of popcorn and soft drink start into the aisle. I sit staring at the screen watching them out of the corner of my eye; they move along the aisle facing the seats and soon they want to edge past me. And it's back to the future; a pubescent boys sitting on the three plank wooden benches on either side of the Racer with a girl eye level to his donger. Only I'm eye level to some strangers donger as they sway, and juggle popcorn, and shuffle past trying to reach their chosen seat somewhere further down the aisle.
At Williamstown Tech we went swimming as part of summer physical education activities and on hot November and December afternoons. The beach was about a fifteen minute walk from the school. At one end of the beach was the Dressing Sheds; a wonderful art deco themed building. It's still there but has been transformed into a restaurant. All the boys changed into their bathers in the Dressing Sheds. There were two changing areas; the paid area was where you could store your clothes in a locker and wash the sand and salt water off yourself under a cold shower. The free to change into your bathers space was an attached cement annex; the boys changing annex was on the beach side and the girls the opposite end of the Dressing Sheds. In the boys area bench seating ran along the four walls and surrounded the small central concrete floor. You picked out a space on the seating and changed into your bathers; packing your clothes into a small parcel inside of your towel, and putting it onto your bench space. Some of the third form boys would stroll proudly into and around the cement floor, flicking their towel at the bums facing the wall, waving and swirling their towels in the air; they were naked Roman centurions brandishing their towels and proudly advertising their dongers. I think I was in the first or second form, thirteen or fourteen years old, and I worried about the size of my donger.
I wonder it Micha Stuntz ever had to change into his bathers in a Dressing Shed. He said that his fascination with enlarging his donger developed twenty years ago when he received a penis pump as a present; trying it out secretly for himself at first but finding that when he went out pumped up he felt great. He has since had silicone injections into his donger to make it bigger permanently; 9 inches long and a 5.5 inches wide. His donger weighs about 9.5lb: The weight of a medium bowling ball or an average sized cat. In 2015 researches at Kings College London, after examining 15,000 men, determined that the average length of the at rest donger was 3.6 inches and the circumference was 3.7 inches. Micha claims that day-to-day life is as normal as it is for anyone else, except perhaps when it comes to buying trousers and underwear. Now I find that difficult to accept. Micha lives in Berlin. All great cities have great parks; and Berlin is no exception. Friedrichshain Park has been a summer retreat for Berliners for over 160 years. The park grounds are mainly used by would be barbeque wizards, sun-worshipers, trendy hipsters, and amateur and professional volleyball players; and trendies who just go there to lie down: To see and to be seen. It's open to debate that Micha plays volleyball at Friedrichshain. And the Strandbad Grünau lays claim to be the most charming of Berlin's many lovely lake beaches; with water deep enough for proper swimming and striped Strandkörbe, beach baskets, to rent instead of an boring old deckchair. There is also a secluded area for those so inclined to go nude. It's hard to believe that Micha sunbathes in a beach basket.
And there has been a study, published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, revealing what the perfect donger looks like. In the questionnaire 105 women of different age groups were asked how important they considered eight different features of a donger on a 5-point scale ranging from very unimportant to very important. The features were; donger length, girth, position and shape of the meatus (where urine leaves the body), shape of glans, appearance of the cods, shape of donger skin, appearance of pubic hair, and general cosmetic appearance. Overall cosmetic appearance was rated as the most essential factor, followed by the appearance of the pubic hair and skin around the donger area. And now I'm even more confused as to what a good looking donger should resemble.
All I know for sure is that Hiroki Ogita's donger aggressively grazed the Olympic pole vault crossbar and knocked it off its ledge and he did not qualify for the finals.

The New YETI X USB Microphone Improves On A Classic
If you are working from home and skyping/zooming/uberconferencing for business, a decent USB mic is an essential part of your setup. This type of mic is even more critical if you are podcasting, doing interviews, or any content production that requires good sound - the mic on your computer just does not cut it, and if you think it does, you should listen to the difference.
Blue Microphones has been a pivotal player for content creators since it became a "thing" and has one of the more diverse line up of USB mics around, including the industry-standard Yeti. So how can this mic get any better? The Blue Yeti X is a significant upgrade and rounds out the Yeti lineup as the new top of the line at an MSRP of $170. The original Yeti ($130) and newish Yeti Nano ($100) round it out for every possible scenario and budget.
The Yeti X is overall a better microphone and offers some features that more pro-level users will appreciate. Along with the better sound, you get active visual monitoring of your audio and integration into Logictech's GHub software, which allows you to tweak your sound with Blue Voice software.
The audio level visualization is essential for semipros or professionals who want to make sure they never hit the red and compromise the output. Peaking on your mic is not a good sound for the receiving end and makes you look like an amateur if you are doing a podcast or any content.
This mic is for people that don't want to jump into a significant professional XLR rig but still sound as pleasant as possible.
The Yetix X brings an extra condenser mic capsule for a total of four versus the standard Yeti's three capsules. The additional capsule does make a difference and creates a beautiful professional sound that is rich and robust.
Where things get cool is the Blue Voice interface in the GHub software, which you get access to as Blue is owned by Logitech now (just in case you were not aware of that, now you know.) Simply put, you now get a piece of software that will let you process your voice to get it just the way you want it, and it's straightforward to use. You have the choice of manipulating sliders (noise reduction, compressor, etc.) or using their presets to dial in your output. You can easily get sidetracked here, as it's a lot of fun to tweak your voice and pretend you're a sportscaster - not that I would do anything like that, yeaaaaah sure.
The software lets you run quick tests on the different filters, so it's easy to record and playback your voice and then layer in different presets or settings on the sliders. You can also download other presets that people have created if you want to explore more that direction.
The other features that more experienced users will love are the ability to customize control knob LED lighting, live mic monitoring, and easy to switch recording patterns via a button on the rear of the mic.
The primary control knob can toggle between controlling your mics gain, headphone volume, or both at once by holding it down with a long press to rotate through the functions. You have complete control here and visual cues, so you never peak out and distort again - because that's for the JV squad. The Yeti X connects via the standard MicroUSB cable, which can also be easily detached for storage or travel.
Pro Tip: When setting up your mic, make sure to have the cable firmly connected and tucked away, so you don't accidentally pull it out, which is easy to do if you are fumbling around your desk.
Should you get the Yeti X?
If you are trying to up your sound game and get a little more control over your mic, this is one of the best options on the market. It allows you to hover just below an XLR quality rig at a reasonable price point and brings pro-level features that are essential for podcasting, voiceovers, interviews, or even high-pressure conference calls. It's also a great mic to take on the road if you need to do professional-level content on the go, this is much better than lugging an XLR rig around.
If you are using it for basic stuff and are more of a hobbyist, the Yeti and Yeti Nano are also great options and will save you a little money.

Millicoulombs to Picocoulombs Conversion
Enter the electric charge in millicoulombs below to get the value converted to picocoulombs.
How to Convert Millicoulombs to Picocoulombs
To convert a millicoulomb measurement to a picocoulomb measurement, multiply the electric charge by the conversion ratio.
Since one millicoulomb is equal to 1,000,000,000 picocoulombs, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The electric charge in picocoulombs is equal to the millicoulombs multiplied by 1,000,000,000.
How Many Picocoulombs Are in a Millicoulomb?
There are 1,000,000,000 picocoulombs in a millicoulomb, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 mC = 1,000,000,000 pC
Millicoulombs and picocoulombs are both units used to measure electric charge. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
The millicoulomb is 1/1,000 of a coulomb, which is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.
The millicoulomb is a multiple of the coulomb, which is the SI derived unit for electric charge. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for 10-3. Millicoulombs can be abbreviated as mC; for example, 1 millicoulomb can be written as 1 mC.
The picocoulomb is 1/1,000,000,000,000 of a coulomb, which is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.
The picocoulomb is a multiple of the coulomb, which is the SI derived unit for electric charge. In the metric system, "pico" is the prefix for 10-12. Picocoulombs can be abbreviated as pC; for example, 1 picocoulomb can be written as 1 pC.

nice shots. Looks like a lovely place.ReplyDelete
That looks like a great Chinese place to eat but I see you say the food is not so good :( Great photos. DianeReplyDeleteReplies
I stopped at this place some months ago now. I remember thinking what a cute little place to stop for some food at good cost. However it was a bit of a disappointment. Then when I went looking for it on line to read other reviews, there was one site that said it was closed. I don't know if this is really the case or not but I won't be trying it again soon.Delete
That is quite unique decor in the Chineses restaurant.ReplyDelete
Based upon it's looks, it should be good food. Sometimes though, the best places are ones you don't expect (like our rough Chinese place in a strip-mall!)ReplyDelete
Looks like one could have a nice, cozy and private lunch in this place. SusanReplyDelete

For those who like the sounds of Southern Rock & stoner-flavoured metal we would like to introduce you to U.S. band VERMILION WHISKEY who come from the hard-rocking bayous of South Louisiana.
Fresh album "Spirit of Tradition" is released this February and includes electrifying tracks such as "The Past is Dead."
This has muscle-bound beefsteak heaviness and murky bass-notes that lurk like grumpy monster-gators in each sinewy riff… whilst meaningful substance fills each dark hollow.
The vocal is resolute and cogent…
This is a compelling return to form …

COVID19: Niger to start production of face masks -Bello
Minna, April 11, 2020 (NAN) Gov. Abubakar Bello of Niger says the state government will liaise with Association of Fashion Designers to embark on mass production face masks to contain spread of coronavirus.
He disclosed during a press conference after an expanded emergency council meeting on index record case of COVID19 in Minna on Saturday.
News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) report that the National Center for Disease Control (NCDC) had on Friday, announced an index case of coronavirus in Niger state.
Bello explained that in view of the difficulties in procuring the mask and its high cost, government had liaised with tailors to commence mass production of face masks for easy purchase.
"We are liaising with our tailors to start developing locally made face masks.
"Although no complete evidence that face mask can prevent one from contacting the virus, but when a positive person sneezed and one is wearing the mask, it can prevent the spread of the disease.
" The idea is to reduce the spread when wearing mask. People should also wash their hands with soap or use sanitiser to prevent the spread of coronavirus, " he said.
The governor advised people of the state to wear the face mask before leaving their homes and observe social distancing.
He explained that government had activated Social Rehabilitation Center for quarantine, as well as equipped isolation center at Minna General Hospital to carter for suspected cases.
He, however, disclosed that the state government had began distribution of palliative at ward level to support the less privileged. (NAN)

Amy Schumer takes the EW Pop Culture Personality Test
Amy Schumer might be fearless on Comedy Central's Inside Amy Schumer, but when she visited EW to take our Pop Culture Personality Test, we discovered she hasn't always been so brave. Watch the video below to find out which movie scared her, which classic Disney scene her sister used to force her to re-enact, how she would describe her personal dance style, and what movie she has to watch every time she spots it on cable.
Bonus fun facts:
• Her first celebrity crush was New Kids on the Block's Joey McIntyre. Followed by Jason Priestley.
• Her go-to karaoke song is "Son of a Preacher Man" — "but only because I've made a lot of karaoke mistakes, like any song by Heart — in way over my head," she says. "I like singing 'Son of a Preacher Man' also because it has the same beginning as the Cypress Hill song 'Hits From the Bong,' so people are like, 'What's it gonna be?!' And then they're disappointed that it's Dusty Springfield."
• Her childhood nickname? Not the R-rated one she first said, jokingly (Big P—y Lips). "The kids would call me Amy Shoemaker instead of Schumer, because kids are, like, really creative. But it really made me mad, and there was a point where my parents were gonna maybe open a shoe store, and I was like, 'You can't do this to me! Nooo!' I begged them and whined my way out of it," she says. "Really not that hostile of a nickname. I should have been like, 'What?' But I was crying about it."
• Last summer she was obsessed with watching Pitch Perfect. Now she's obsessed with…

Chrissy Teigen was all leg in her latest date night look at the General Public x Restoration Hardware launch Wednesday night in Los Angeles.
With her arm candy husband, John Legend, Teigen attended the event in a black blazer dress with a low-cut top and high-cut slit.
On her feet, Teigen donned a sleek pair of black sandals with subtle studs and pointed toes. The minimalist shoes highlighted the model's post-pregnancy body and famous legs.
For her hair and makeup, the "Lip Sync Battle" star opted for a simple pony style and added a cherry pop of lip color. Her husband didn't look too shabby either; Legend wore an all-blue suit with black boots.
Just a month after the birth of her second child, Miles, Teigen has recently stepped out in a classic look that we love, making sure to wear all the fun shoes she couldn't wear while pregnant.
At the event, the couple met with Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, to celebrate the launch of the General Public line at Restoration Hardware.
Gary Friedman, chairman and CEO of Restoration Hardware, co-hosted the event with General Public and brought out big names. In addition to Teigen's crew, the guests included Ellen Pompeo, Kris Jenner and January Jones.

Importance of Body Alignment for Inury Prevention and Performance in Golf
Here is a link to an article discussing the importance of body alignment in your golf game. Are you ready for Spring golf?
Back Safety forYard Clean-up
The spring and fall lawn clean-up activities generate a tremendous number of back and shoulder injuries. Proper mechanics and a little preparation can limit injuries and make for a more enjoyable outdoor experience. Here are a few tips to help you get through annual battle with nature in preparation for winter.
Maintenance Care for Chronic Back Pain
I have always been very cautious about recommending monthly treatments for chronic low back pain patients because of a lack of evidence. I usually tell them to wait until it hurts again. This prospective single blinded placebo controlled study, published in the prestigious Spine journal, strongly supports regular manipulation following the initial month of intensive therapy for chronic low back pain.

Glebar's versatile precision grinding machines are workhorses which require a smaller footprint than similar machines yet excel in demanding high production environments where the name of the game is high volume at low cost, with exceptional precision. Below are selected case studies demonstrating how our machines excel at grinding ceramics:
Current process:
Legacy equipment did not meet current CE standards. The brittle shafts break in the grinder's feeder increasing scrap rates.
Deliver an automated, turnkey process that can integrate with the customer's existing isostatic press to accuractely handle and grind the parts. The process had to ensure the ceramic shafts would not chip or break due to the brittle consistency of pre-sintered ceramics.
Challenge: To grind a ceramic insulator body for lean burn gas engines for use in cogeneration plants and containerized power generation units. Customer required four diameters as well multiple compound angles and radii to be ground concentric to the ID within .003".
Challenge: To thrufeed grind ceramic pellets, which are used to manufacture radiopharmaceuticals (radiotracers) used in CT scans. The pellet count had to be tracked through the machine and the customer needed to measure a set frequency of parts that would be programmable. In addition to accounting for all the components, the machine had to separate the set number of parts processed for data collection.
Challenge: To accurately grind alumina spacers used in nuclear power plant control rods. The length of the components are extremely critical to the efficiency of the fuel rod. The components need to be processed at a high rate and length verified for all parts.
Below is a sample of Ceramic components Glebar has ground over the years. Please contact us and send us your drawing for a personal consultation.
The GT-610 Automated Infeed/Thrufeed Centerless Grinding Machine can be custom fitted with automation. This system is the ideal option for when infeed applications do not require a CNC dresser and for the vast majority of thrufeed applications. The GT-610 excels at hard metals and composites, producing carbide blanks, spools, bushings, and engine components such as automotive fasteners and valve lifters. It can also effectively size down metal bars.
The GT-610 EZ is the newest addition to the GT Series Centerless Grinder suite. A lean version of the GT-610, the GT-610 EZ brings slide motion control to the operator at an affordable price point. Operating on a much smaller footprint than the competition, this system excels at thrufeed grinding hard materials such as steel, carbide, pcd inserts and technical ceramics. Slide positioning allows for precise diameter control on close-tolerance components. The machine is also capable of gauge feedback for even more precise diameter control.
The PG-912DG Enclosed Centerless Form Grinder is designed to increase throughput, reduce setup times, and achieve tighter tolerances. Additionally, it provides better integration to gauges, automation, and remote service diagnostics. It can produce multiple cylindrical or spherical parts from a single piece of material.
The CS1-A Precision Abrasive Cutoff machine from Tridex Technology features superb accuracy and multiple bar cutting for applications requiring tight tolerances in medical, aerospace, fasteners, and automotive industries. The Precision Abrasive cut leaves almost no burr on the bar or tubing.

It Takes a Big Heart to Shape Growing Minds
Teachers play a critical role in educating and shaping our children, the future leaders of our country. They are kind, patient, hard-working, dedicated, and understanding professionals who try to mold our children's lives in a positive way. Even with all that they do, teachers in the U.S. are criticized constantly because they have summers off and have been known to be unhappy with their salaries. Typically, in the U.S. people aren't encouraged to even become teachers because some consider it a laughable and stressful job. However, in other countries teachers are ranked the highest respected profession… even higher than or equivalent to a doctor. It makes no sense to me that the people who have been entrusted with the intellectual and social development of the young minds of America are so blatantly demonized.
The point many people do not understand is that teaching is HARD. It may not require the physical strength of an electrician or the dexterity of a neurosurgeon but it does require a plethora of knowledge and continuous dedication in order to teach students –and not just any students. There are students who need inspiration and motivation; students who go home to an unhealthy family dynamic; students who have anger management issues, or learning disabilities, or physical challenges –and there are 20-30 students per class with all different abilities and personalities and attitudes. A good teacher must balance being an expert in his/her subject, a motivator, mediator, and even a social worker all at once every day. So why is it that the starting salary of a teacher is so low? When we undervalue a profession, we also tell the next generation of bright educators they shouldn't bother teaching—or that if they do, they must take a vow of poverty. Examples of such financial stress and strain can be found in every state in the country; quality teachers are walking away from the profession, and salaries are part of the reason they leave.
Teachers also face school boards, administrators, and politicians who are determined to evaluate their effectiveness through a standardized test of their students which doesn't not even apply to what they learn throughout the year. Are there "bad" teachers? Of course, but in my experience I've only witnessed a handful and the rest actually influenced my desire to learn and have made school enjoyable. All the good teachers I have had, all have a love for kids, love of their subject, a work ethic that doesn't quit and, most importantly, a passion for teaching. Students tend to blame their teachers often, but unless they are actually not doing their job, students in the U.S. should be be grateful to be able to have a decent public education when there are so many kids around the world who can't afford school or cannot continue or further their education in order to help provide for their families. Mrs. Kushkuley, an LHS math teacher, expressed that "The biggest reward teachers can get is to see their students grow into successful and productive members of society. So please, come back to visit and share your success stories. Seeing my former students accomplishments give me energy to continue." After all, it does not matter if you want to be a lawyer, engineer, or doctor, you need an expert in that field to teach you in order to become the professional you want to be. So instead of diminishing teachers, why not begin to treat them as professionals and give them the respect they deserve?
National Teacher Appreciation Day is observed on the Tuesday of the first full week in May. In 2017, National Teacher Day will take place on May 9. It is time to say "Thank You" to the special teachers that you know. Let them know that they are appreciated for all that they do. Use #TeacherAppreciationDay to post on social media.

Filmmakers put veterans and suicide in spotlight
Two filmmakers who won an Oscar for their documentary on a suicide hotline used their acceptance speech to urge troubled veterans to receive help.
Dana Perry and Ellen Goosenberg Kent spent months at the Department of Veterans Affairs' suicide hotline headquarters filming Crisis Hotline: Veterans Press 1, which showed the dedicated efforts staffers make to prevent veterans from killing themselves. Their Oscar on Sunday night was for best documentary short subject.
Perry mentioned her 15-year-old son, who had killed himself. "We should talk about suicide out loud," Perry said.
VA Secretary Robert McDonald praised the HBO documentary for highlighting "the challenges our veterans can face and the work of our dedicated Veterans Crisis Line staff."
"We are hopeful that this documentary will help raise awareness of this important issue with the American public," McDonald said. "Our Veterans in crisis need to know that there is hope and asking for help makes them stronger."
The suicide hotline center in Canandaigua, N.Y, (800-273-8255) takes about 1,000 calls a day from veterans or servicemembers on the brink of self-destruction or family members terrified a suicide might occur.
VA officials said since the award was announced they put on extra staff in the hotline center anticipating that the volume of calls may increase in the days ahead.

Sortition can be best understood in terms of the Ancient Greeks: it is a practice if election by lot which was especially prevalent in the Athenian democracy. It eliminated the electorate vote, providing a practical way for citizens to elect officials. Adam Scarborough's 2013 performance work entitled Sortition, commissioned by Arches, Glasgow for Arches: LIVE 2013, examined the territory and relationships between political engagement, publicity, and art.
Over the course of three weeks a political campaign was initiated in an attempt to achieve 100,000 signatures on to an e-petition calling for a wholly new form of governance based on direct action. The campaign for direct democracy, for a move towards sortition rather than representative democracy, took the campaign onto the streets, into the media, and across the country in an attempt to show the people of Scotland that by taking simple actions and making small changes they could take a big step toward more effectively making decisions for themselves.
I would be remiss if I didn't include a final thought to the above quote: "The campaign was a failure." The campaign… yes. The social experiment? No. And definitely not as an art piece. But those interrelationships were the whole idea, and it's interesting to parse which components "worked" and which ones didn't. Did the campaign fail because there wasn't enough publicity, because of general apathy, or because it was presented as an artwork? How much publicity would have been enough–could there have been enough? And what does it say about the way that the general public, approached at random on the street, responds to both politics and art? Are they more or less interested if they find out it's an artistic performance? How much does it depend on the city, the neighborhood, the demographic?
The fact that I'm riffing endless questions says this, as an artwork, certainly succeeds.
Scarborough confronts and explores the social element of performance, often incorporating places as subjects that hold their own, such as the cities of Glasgow and New York City, both of which he has called home. He plies the art of performance by reaching out to people, experimenting with the boundaries of human comfort in spaces that we are unfamiliar with, or around people we don't know. Art with a capital A has a long tradition of being intimidating, if not actively cultivating this attitude (as some high end galleries will), so socially-engaged performance art is an effective way of gauging attitudes.
One other notable work of Scarborough's that I was drawn to was the recent performance installation entitled Against a Rational Basis for Fear, exhibited at chashama in New York, in which the artist engaged with visitors and engaged in physical, one-on-one sparring matches.
Through physical contest and discursive exchange, participant and artist gained an understanding of the role language performs in the psychology of fear.
Please check out Adam Scarborough's website, adamjscarborough.com, which includes links to numerous collaborative projects and ongoing projects. If you find yourself in Brooklyn at the end of the month, an exhibition entitled Directions for Use will be opening at 841 Gallerywill be on for one night only, 6-9pm on 23rd May.

At the Armani Hotel in Milan, it's clear from the get-go that the interiors are the realisation of one man's vision—Giorgio Armani. That the man in question also helms one of the most well-regarded fashion brands in the world is what compels tourists, celebrities and anyone looking to splurge a fashionable lump sum to stay at the 95-room property in Italy's fashion and financial capital. Over the years, Armani, the company, has expanded, and the Milan building is ground zero for a range of goods that widen the brand's universe for well-heeled, high-spending die-hards.
Indians may be familiar with the Armani Hotel in Dubai, which occupies 10 floors of the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building. Armani's Milan outpost, on the other hand, is housed in a historic building designed by Enrico A. Griffini in 1937, distinguished by its stark facade which was later added upon to meld the no-frills original structure into a well-blended, modern extension. It was in 2011 that the building in Via Manzoni was converted into a hotel. Today it features a ground floor filled with exquisite options from the Armani store (across its varied brands). The ground floor is also a showcase for Armani's ever-growing brand extensions, whether it be Armani/Dolci, the chocolate store, or Armani/Fiori, which has expanded to Kuwait City and Hong Kong.
The sparse, bordering on monastic deference to materiality is the unifying theme that runs through the property. Though it portends luxury, the dark colours can sometimes seek to overwhelm the space. There's also the choice made to elevate aesthetics over practicality—take two examples: room doors lack handles, but instead click inwards when opened with a key card, and, the elevator's call button is supposed to be touch sensitive, but doesn't respond well all the time. Small niggles aside, the hotel is an immersion into the Armani aesthetic, with everything, including the soap, enriched with a story. It would seem that some travellers have been packing away keepsakes from their stay and, as a result, each room has a card warning that guests will be charged if the Armani branded glass tumblers, bathrobes or towels are found missing at the end of one's stay. Of course, all are available for purchase, and typical to the Armani name, command stratospheric prices.
Across the hotel's eight room categories, each features an iPad that controls pretty much everything—from the curtains and blinds to television channels and concierge services. This centralisation makes it easy to acclimatise, all without having to get in touch with anyone. Also, worth keeping in mind in the new normal is the antechamber that each room has, so that deliveries and room service can be ordered without coming into direct contact with the staff. What the hotel lacks though, are enough plug points to charge today's ever-proliferating arsenal of devices.
Those looking for an Instagram-worthy setting should book the Armani Signature Suite, which sprawls over two floors and includes a gorgeous living room, statement staircase, and one architectural head-turner of an internal balcony. The marble bathroom attached to the bedroom is a sight to behold as well. Every room, no matter the category, will delight guests with the size of the bathrooms, which put most Mumbai apartments to shame. Monolithic and accented with mirrored chrome, they boast a lot of functional accents, like a towel rack, hooks for the bathrobes and a sculptural toiletry holder to add to their appeal. Also appealing are the nugget-gold tones, an earthier compliment to the colours that typify the bedroom.
The hotel houses a restaurant and a bar, both of which draw on the mystique of the designer to build a coherent universe. Bamboo Bar serves up an array of Signature Armani Cocktails, that puts a twist of classic tipples. There's the Pantelleria, which substitutes vodka for mezcal; and the Milano 1981, made with bitter campari, Belsazar red vermouth, Zucca and Cyar (both Italian apertifs), instead of standard ingredients like gin, Campari and vermouth. In the evenings, the bar comes to life, with lights reflecting off the windows and slatted louvres for a setting that's fun without being flashy, and hedonistic while still being approachable. Located on the seventh floor, alongside the Armani/Ristorante and the hotel lobby, the bar appears to be popular as much for its buzzy vibe as for its memorable cocktails.
The restaurant, under chef Francesco Mascheroni takes Italian dishes and gives it a worldly spin. The menu includes ingredients like wakame seaweed, tahina and aged soy sauce—which come together well in dishes that are grounded in Italian ingredients, be it cheese, pasta or local meat. It is worth mentioning that meat here includes game and some region-specific seafood (Pro tip: Go for the Mazara red shrimp). With a cosmopolitan milieu of guests, the food was bound to have global appeal, so breakfast includes dim sum and congee alongside cheese, charcuterie, fruits and some of the best croissants I've had in Italy.
Add to this potent mix a spa and plunge pool on the top floor, and carefully laid out Wallpaper* magazines across the property, and your stay becomes a five-star experience that doubles as a luxurious spell of brand immersion and experiential retail (similar-looking Armani/Casa furniture can be ordered for purchase, though the pieces in the hotel are custom made). Its location, near the hipster neighbourhood of Brera, and close to the Duomo, Teatro alla Scala, Fondazione Lucio Fontana, and some of Milan's most luminous shopping venues, only adds to the notion of functional decadence.
A stay at the property left me curious about its sister hotel in Dubai. After all, minimalism isn't in vogue there, but this storied brand name most definitely is. While the Arabian Emirate might be closer and easier for a quick getaway for many Indians, Milan offers the chance to experience Armani in its home city—where design and history collide.

Armani Hotel Milan reopened on July 1, 2020, following the lifting of Italy's lockdown. It has since partnered with the certification company Bureau Veritas Group for its health and environment certification. Check-in and check-out are now done over e-mail, and meals for up to six people can be pre-booked in the Presidential Suite. Hotel staff have timed entry and exits from the building, social distancing is practiced in the common areas, and cleaning and sanitisation are carried out regularly (www.armanihotelmilano.comwww.armanihotelmilano.com; doubles from Rs50,000)

How to find the right front flap box
To find the right front flap box for your requirements, it is best to use the convenient filter function. Select one or more filter criteria and limit the selection of boxes to those that meet your specifications.
You can of course also combine different filter options to further limit the number of search results. For example, you can search specifically for front flap boxes that are suitable for a certain format and then specify them in more detail, e.g. by specifying the desired features such as a slipcase or leather flap. You can make your selection by clicking on the down arrow (you can see it to the right of the filter). The individual filter criteria are displayed directly after activation below the filters. If no results were found after using the filter, you can undo the complete filter or individual elements simply by clicking on the small "x" (next to the filter).
High quality at attractive prices
For all our front flap boxes we offer you particularly attractive graduated prices, where you can save a lot of money already from a certain minimum order quantity. If you require even larger quantities of a particular front flap box, you will benefit from an increasing scale of discount.

quote:Originally posted by Sweetwuzzy:
Is it surprising that white and Asian American children do better without these self-inflicted handicaps to academic achievement?
No, because Black children are not White or Asian children. Black children are just as academically capable, smart, and competent as other children, but because they are Black, they are often times treated differently than other children, particularly in academic environments. Thus, whatever "academic handicaps" that Black students develop as result of past and present mistreatment is not "self-inflicted," but inflicted upon them by society. And this is what "racial identity education" seeks to address and ultimately eliminate: educational mistreatment and differential treatment. Mr. Sowell, racial identity education DOES NOT seek to make excuses for not learning, but to give EVERY child, regardless of their race or gender, an EQUAL opportunity to do their best. It's not enough to tell Black kids to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and "do like the smart Asian kids do." We must encourage Black students to do their best without making belittling comparisons.

No matter how successful a beauty brand is, there was a day when there was nothing but only a concept. It's easy to look at beauty products that have successfully established themselves on the world stage and think that they started big. However, the reality is that there was a day when the people behind the brand took a leap of faith and decided to run with their idea. They had to start somewhere. Hence if you have an idea to start a company that sells beauty products, you may want to make a online website as a launch pad for your business.
If starting an online website was so easy, then why is everybody not doing it? – You may ask. The truth is that no one is suggesting that it would be easy. Of course, creating your own products and making an online platform is a huge step yet not the final one. In every brand that managed to get success, there is a whole bunch of work behind, lots of mistakes and lots of hours of working towards the goal. However, no one is suggesting that it is impossible either. Below, are some ideas which could help you build a beauty business website from scratch.
1. Never work again
There is a common saying which goes along the lines that if you do what you love, you will never work a single day in your life again. But how does doing work that you love have to do with building a successful beauty brand online?
The success of your online business will depend on your ability to nature it even during those times when you feel discouraged. You have probably heard about people who love what they do to the extent that they would vow they can work in that field without being paid. This is exactly what passion will do for your online beauty brand.
In the beginning, there will be many times when you will feel like giving up but the truth is that if you are passionate about what you are doing, you will always find the reasons to stay.
2. Your platform to success
Once you have determined that the beauty business is certainly the area that you want to be in, the real work will start. Initially, you'll have to find a platform where you will host your website. Gone are the days when the only people that could have websites are those who had intricate coding skills or money to pay someone else to code for them. Nowadays, you can use custom templates, created specifically for different industries.
The process of identifying a platform should start by you defining your goals. For instance, a platform that successfully sells holiday destinations may not be the right one for a beauty brand. Define exactly what you need the website to do for you. What is more important to you, do you want it to support high-quality photographs, or do you want it to have a lot of advice? (However, it is better to choose the one would cover all your needs, not just some).
Once you have decided on this, you can then start looking for a platform that will give you what you are looking for. Never allow the site that will host your products to make you bend over backward in order to fit within a limited number of templates.
3. Simplicity the ultimate sophistication
Whoever said simplicity is the ultimate sophistication had a point. When you consider simplicity, you should think of two important stakeholders: yourself and your customers. You should be able to navigate your website with ease when you showcase your products and post content.
Even though you can easily host your website on a fairly complicated site and hire someone to manage it for you, the reality is that in the beginning, your business may not afford this. As the business grows and you begin to focus on other things, you can easily hire a team to provide content and manage interaction with your customers.
4. Exchange good stuff for information
In the beginning, investing time in knowing your target market may look like an activity that takes your valuable time but you will notice that trying to target a market you do not know well could waste even more time.
Knowing the market will allow you to understand the products your customers are looking for. You will know their buying power and the quality of beauty products they can afford.
How do you get to know the customer? You could collect data from the people visiting your website. One of the best ways of doing this is offering something of value in exchange for contact details. Many businesses offer e-Books to customers who provide their details. You may offer a discount or some other incentive for anyone who leaves their emails address so that you could contact them when you have special offers and new products.
5. Lure with content
Good content is a currency. This is the reason why many businesses have become successful from selling nothing but just good content.
As someone who will be running a beauty business website, you may provide content linked to the beauty industry. Creating great content requires a lot of dedication and skill. If you believe that you do not have the dexterity to create the content, you can always find someone to do it for you. There are several websites where you can hire generally affordable writers who understand how to use content to attract customers to a website.
What does the content have in common with a beauty product? Nowadays, you won't be able to get popular without running an account on Instagram and other social medias. Once you promote your product, you want people not only to see what you want to sell them but also to read how good your product is, how passionate you are when creating it, how easy it can substitute the products people use now and why they need to try it. Tell people everything you know about the industry so visitors become charmed by your passion as well. Share some tips that come in handy to everyone so visitors want to share this content as well. Great content can do miracles.
You need to ensure that the content can be spread easily. This is where a good social media strategy becomes handy. Visitors to your beauty website should be able to share the content they like through their social media pages. Don't just expect them to share: ask them.
Creating a beauty brand online will not necessarily be a guarantee for instant success. However, if you're truly passionate about what you're doing, you select the right platform to host your site, and create the right content your brand is likely to grow over time. The internet will spread your products to places you have never even heard of. Who knows, one day you may be the owner of a successful beauty brand that everyone will want to be associated with.
