After a century of lakefront plans that have sunk like a rusty, discarded barge, just about everyone has an opinion about what what our waterfront should look like and whether or not it’ll get done. Any city planner would find it difficult to get a consensus from a divided population.
Who are we building for? Locals or tourists? Urbanists or suburbanites? Wealthy or poor? Parents or singles? Foodies or hikers?
The inability for our diverse and often distrustful city to find consensus is a big reason for the century’s worth of discarded plans. Downtown Cleveland’s 22-acre lakefront project site is large and could be far larger if the 450-acre Burke Lakefront Airport is partially or totally redeveloped, and the city’s waterfront gets even bigger when the banks of the Cuyahoga River are included.
The work there is farther ahead, with construction underway on the 23-acre Irishtown Bend Park. The challenge is to keep our waterfronts from becoming a confusing mishmash of seemingly disconnected uses. Everyone must consider the waterfront to be “ours.”
The spaces need to feel secure and encourage unity. Cleveland is fortunate to have waterfronts, but that comes with a burden of care. In Cleveland’s case, that means transitioning from a dirty, deeply entrenched industrial past to post-industrial glory.
If local leaders can finally implement a coherent lakefront vision, it may do more than just reacquaint Greater Clevelanders with their waterfronts: It may reacquaint Greater Clevelanders with each other and unify the population to achieve more great things.

The Clever Fix
Power cycle your Verizon router by unplugging it from its power source, letting it rest for about 30 seconds, and then plugging it back in.
Why is there a red globe on my Verizon router?
In the world of gadgets, a red light often signals a problem.
So, if you’ve deduced that a red globe indicates an issue, you’re spot on.
The red globe is essentially acting as a beacon for connectivity issues.
But here’s the twist: there are three types of red globes you might encounter on your Verizon router—flashing fast, flashing slow, or steady—and each carries its own meaning.
Understanding this can answer your question, “Why is there a red globe on my Verizon router?”
Let’s decode the three red light indicators:
1. Solid red: This points to a problem with internet connectivity.
2. Slow flashing light (2 times per second): Indicates a gateway issue.
3. Fast flashing light (4 times per second): Suggests the router is overheating.
The light indicator can be really helpful because we can easily determine the fix appropriate to the problem.
If your globe is flashing fast, you know how to handle an overheating device: unplug it, let it cool down, and ensure there are no obstructions blocking the air circulation.
But if your globe is either solid red or flashing slowly (which are the most common occurrences), dive deeper into the fixes below.
Take a minute to do this
Before you invest time and energy into troubleshooting your router, take a minute to verify the Verizon service status.
You can do this by logging into your Verizon account on this page.
If it’s down, no amount of troubleshooting will help.
Your only recourse would be to patiently await the restoration of the service.
If the service status shows no issues, it suggests the problem is unique to your household. That’s your cue to read on and tackle that pesky red globe.
How to fix a red globe on my Verizon router
1. Power cycle the Verizon router
It’s such a simple step, but often overlooked.
Trust me, sometimes all your router needs is a small power down to come back to life.
So, if you haven’t given power cycling a shot, go for it!
Unplug your router for 30 seconds, and see if this simple act brings back your internet.
And if that doesn’t work, don’t worry. We have a few more tricks ready for you!
2. Power cycle the ONT
Did you recently experience a power disruption in your area?
If yes, it might have affected your Optical Network Terminal (ONT)—the device that connects your router to your internet service provider.
The ONT is the box installed outside or inside your house (usually in the garage, closet, or basement).
As the middleman between your Wi-Fi service and the fiber network, the ONT plays a crucial role.
It’s important that the Verizon Fios network maintains steady communication with it.
Before power cycling, you might want to check the light indicators to see if it’s receiving power.
If the ONT isn’t powering up, that’s the problem!
Ensure it’s properly plugged into the power socket.
If it’s plugged in but still not powering up, it’s time to reach out to Verizon. Go straight to 4. Contact Verizon technical support for Verizon’s contact information.
However, if the ONT is powered up, give it a power cycle.
Unplug the ONT from its power source for about 3 minutes.
Alternatively, you can press the Alarm Silence button on the battery backup for 15-30 seconds until it reboots.
Usually, this alone resolves the issue. Give it a few minutes and see if the red globe on your router turns white.
3. Check the cables
It’s natural to assume that the problem is with the router since that’s what is giving you the red light.
But it’s also possible that the router is just communicating the problem and other hardware is causing the red globe.
You wouldn’t believe how many owners have discovered that simple cable placement affected the whole network.
The issue can lie with the cables rather than the router. Any damage, however slight, can affect network connectivity.
Check if the cables are damaged, loosely plugged in, or have been bent or twisted. Unplugging and replugging can also help ensure a proper connection.
If you find any damage, you might need to replace the cable or have a technician replace it for you.
4. Factory reset the Verizon router
If your cables are in good shape and the ONT refresh didn’t help, we get back to the Verizon router.
It might need more than a power refresh—like a factory reset.
Keep in mind, a factory reset will erase all existing settings, including the username, password, network name, and Wi-Fi password.
Post-reset, you’ll need to reconfigure your router using your My Verizon account or the Fios app.
To reset the router, look for a small button with “reset” on it and press it using a paperclip for 30 seconds.
Alternatively, you can reset the Verizon router through the settings. Here’s how:
- On your phone, go to your router’s GUI (go to this page or 192.168.1.1).
- Navigate to Advanced Settings > Utilities > Save & Restore > Factory Default > Restore Configuration.
This should work if the problem is with the router.
There’s nothing that a factory reset can’t clean up. All glitches and system errors that may have caused the red globe should be gone by now.
A refresher on the setup process of the Verizon router
You might have forgotten the setup process if it’s been ages since you last did it.
Let me refresh your memory with this guide.
There are three ways to set up your network: using the router label, through the My Verizon Page, or using the My Fios app.
Using the router label
- Type 192.168.1.1 in your browser.
- Sign in to your router (admin is the default username. The default password is on the router label.)
- Follow the on-screen instructions in your router’s user guide for setting up the network.
Through the My Verizon page
- Go to Verizon website and sign in to My Account.
- Change the Wi-Fi name and password by going to Services > Internet > My Network > (select the network) > Manage > (enter new credentials).
- Continue configuring your network to your preferred settings.
Using the My Fios app
- Change Wi-Fi name and password by navigating to Internet > My Network > (select the network) > Edit > (enter new credentials).
- Continue configuring your network to your preferred settings.
How to know if the Verizon router is deteriorating?
First, don’t jump to conclusions that your Verizon router is beyond repair.
Before shelling out for a replacement, it’s wise to seek Verizon’s professional opinion.
Consider these signs that your router may be on its last leg:
- Intermittent connection problems
- Slow internet speed
- Unusual light indicator behavior (constant change or flickering of light indicator)
5. Consult Verizon technical support
If you’ve tried everything and you’re still stuck with a red globe, it’s time to reach out to Verizon technical support.
They can check your connection on their end.
You can call them at 1-800-837-4966, message them on their facebook account (available 24/7), or request them to call you through this page.
Minute-long internet downtimes are not surprising. However, when half an hour or an hour goes by, it’s worth investigating.
Seeing that red globe immediately signals a problem.
Quick tip: Check for system outages first before diving into troubleshooting.
If there’s no outage, power cycle your router.
If that doesn’t work, here are some more steps you can take:
- Power cycle the ONT.
- Check the cables.
- Factory reset the Verizon router.
- Consult Verizon technical support.
Avoid rushing into buying replacement cables or a new router unless Verizon technical support recommends it.
Sometimes, resetting the connection on Verizon’s end is all you need. |

The convenience factor of renting a car cannot be overstated. No longer will you have to rely on public transportation schedules or expensive ride-sharing services. Instead, with a rental car at your disposal, you can go where you want when you want. Plus, there are plenty of budget-friendly options available that won’t break the bank. You can even plan road trip ideas and take advantage of all that South Carolina has to offer.
In addition to convenience benefits, renting a car in South Carolina also offers flexibility benefits.

With so much to see and do in South Carolina, renting a car is undoubtedly the best way to make your trip memorable and hassle-free. However, before settling on any particular rental service provider or model type- consider factors such as fuel efficiency requirements or seating arrangements- that may affect how well-suited each option is specifically tailored towards meeting individual needs!
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Rental Car
When picking out a rental car, it’s important to take into account factors such as the size of the vehicle, fuel efficiency, and any additional features you may need. Size considerations are crucial as you want a car that can comfortably accommodate all passengers and their luggage. If you’re traveling with family or friends, you may want to consider renting an SUV or minivan for extra space.
Another factor to consider is insurance options. While rental companies usually offer insurance coverage, it’s worth checking if your personal auto insurance or credit card company also covers rentals. This can save you money on insurance fees. Additionally, inquire about the rental duration as some companies offer discounts for longer rentals.
Fuel efficiency is another key consideration when choosing a rental car. Opting for a more fuel-efficient model can help keep your overall transportation costs down during your trip. Lastly, don’t forget to consider any additional features that may enhance your driving experience such as GPS navigation or Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free communication.
Now that you know what factors to consider when choosing a rental car in South Carolina, let’s explore tips for finding the best deals on car rentals without compromising quality or safety.
Tips for Finding the Best Deals on Car Rentals
To find the best deals on renting a car, it’s important to start your search early and compare prices from different rental companies. Comparison websites like Kayak or Expedia can help you easily compare rates and packages. Keep in mind the size and features you need for your trip, as larger cars or added features such as GPS can increase the price.
Another way to save money on car rentals is through loyalty programs. Many rental companies offer rewards for frequent customers, including discounts or free upgrades. Look into signing up for these programs before booking your rental.
Off airport locations may also have better rates than those at airports due to lower demand. Seasonal discounts and weekend specials are also worth looking out for when planning your trip. Keep an eye out for promotions that coincide with holidays or other events in South Carolina.
With these tips in mind, you’ll be able to find affordable car rentals that fit your needs and budget while exploring South Carolina’s top tourist destinations by car. From sandy beaches to historic landmarks, there’s plenty to see and do throughout this beautiful state – all from behind the wheel of a rental car!
Exploring South Carolina’s Top Tourist Destinations by Car
Exploring South Carolina’s top tourist destinations by car is a great way to see everything this beautiful state has to offer. With its scenic routes, roadside attractions, local eats, historic landmarks, and nature trails, you’ll never run out of places to visit. Start your journey in Charleston and drive along the Ashley River Road to witness some of the oldest plantations in America. Stop for lunch at Poogan’s Porch on Queen Street and savor their famous shrimp and grits.
Next stop is Myrtle Beach where you can soak up the sun and enjoy some fun in the sand. Take a stroll along Ocean Boulevard to see the many souvenir shops and restaurants that line the boardwalk. Drive down Kings Highway to explore Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum which houses oddities from around the world.
For history buffs, head over to Columbia where you can visit Fort Jackson National Cemetery or stroll through Congaree National Park which boasts one of the largest old-growth hardwood forests in North America. Along your way back towards Charleston, make sure to stop off at Gullah Geechee Cultural Heritage Corridor which showcases African American culture from slavery through Civil Rights.
Now that you have a taste of what South Carolina has to offer, it’s time to compare rental car companies in South Carolina so that you can find an affordable option for your road trip adventure!
Comparing Rental Car Companies in South Carolina
Ready to hit the road? Check out which rental car company in South Carolina will give you the best value for your money. When it comes to price comparison, there are several factors to consider.

Meanwhile, Avis offers luxury vehicles that are perfect for those looking to travel in style. Whatever your preference may be, make sure to compare vehicle options across companies before making a decision.
Customer service and availability are equally important when renting a car. Thrifty and Dollar offer convenient pick-up locations at airports throughout South Carolina, while Sixt provides 24/7 customer service support for any questions or concerns during your trip. Additionally, always review each company’s rental policies carefully before booking to ensure that they align with your needs and expectations.
Looking for more information on hidden fees to watch out for when renting a car? Stay tuned! We’ll guide you through everything you need to know so that you can enjoy your trip without any unexpected surprises down the road.
Hidden Fees to Watch Out For When Renting a Car
Be aware of hidden fees when renting a car, as they can quickly add up and surprise you during your trip. One common scam to watch out for is the “fuel service option”where the rental company charges a premium price for gas and then claims that you can return the car empty. In reality, this option often costs more than filling up at a gas station yourself. Make sure you read the fine print on your rental agreement to avoid falling victim to such scams.
In addition to fuel service options, there are other additional charges that may not be immediately apparent when renting a car in South Carolina. For example, some companies charge extra fees for drivers under 25 or over 65 years old. You may also be charged for GPS navigation systems, toll passes, or additional drivers. Before finalizing your rental agreement, ask about any potential extra charges so that you can budget accordingly.
When it comes to insurance options, many rental companies will try to sell you their own coverage plans which can be expensive and redundant if you already have auto insurance with collision coverage. Check with your personal auto insurance provider before opting for additional coverage through the rental company. By being aware of these hidden fees and properly understanding your rental agreement and insurance options, you can save money on your South Carolina car rental today!

In the east, the situation remains the most difficult, as the Russians are using all kinds of weapons there.
However, in some parts of the front, the enemy has significantly reduced its intensity due to weather conditions.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the speaker of the Eastern Group of Forces, Sergei Cherevatiy, in a TV marathon.
"The eastern direction continues to be the main direction of the enemy's strike. Their most brutal actions continue there; the enemy uses all kinds of weapons that he has. First of all, it is the artillery of all calibers. Also, tanks, multiple rocket launchers, and aviation," Cherevaty said.
However, according to him, despite this, for more than four months the enemy cannot break through the Ukrainian defense near Bakhmut and in the Avdiivka direction (Donetsk region).
"Undoubtedly, weather conditions affect (the enemy's offensive potential - ed.). First of all, this autumn slush, it first makes it impossible to use armored wheeled vehicles, and later tracked vehicles, such as infantry fighting vehicles, and tanks, or complicates their use. In some parts of the front, we do observe that the enemy has greatly reduced its intensity. But at the same time, in many areas, attacks continue," Cherevaty noted.-
It is noteworthy that the Defense Ministry recently urged the Ukrainians to continue the offensive in winter to take the most of their advantages. They noted that the Armed Forces have an advantage in training, equipment, and high quality of the military against demoralized, poorly trained, and ill-equipped Russians.

PSAT Test Prep Tutoring: In Home & Online
Many parents are familiar with the PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Assessment Test), the precursor to the SAT which helps determine how ready a student is for the most important test in their educational experience. And, a student’s performance on the PSAT also determines whether or not they are eligible for the National Merit Scholarship program, which can provide vital funding for college applicants.
As a first step in college entrance exams, the PSAT helps students become familiar with college entrance exam format and subject matter. Armed with their PSAT experience and scores, student study time can be more productive and the focus can be on areas where they need improvement. Z Prep! recommends to all our high school students that they take the PSAT exam in their sophomore year.
Here’s why high school sophomores should consider taking the PSAT: practice for the SAT or ACT, qualify for the National Merit Scholarship program, gain familiarity with the exam experience such as atmosphere, format and tempo, see how well you handle factors such as test anxiety and time pressures so you can work on these if necessary, be better prepared and get a better score later on the SAT and ACT.
The PSAT has three separate sections: Math, Writing, and Critical Reading. Z Prep!’s PSAT test prep program will address each of these sections and focus where you need the most help. Give us a call today to find out how Z Prep! can help prepare your student for the PSAT exam.
In addition to Hilliard, our office offers PSAT tutoring services in the following locations: Upper Arlington, Galloway, Plain City, and Unionville Center in Ohio.
Please fill out the form above, or call Club Z! Tutoring of Hilliard, OH at 614-428-0067 for more information! |

Official Historic Place
On December 12, 1976, the 1901 Ozaukee County Courthouse was placed on the National Register of Historic Places through the United States Department of the Interior. Local Port Washington historians, Anna and Viola Ubbink, can be credited with promoting the National Register status of the courthouse.
The 1901 courthouse quietly remained an everyday fixture in Ozaukee County and Port Washington until early 2001. In anticipation of the 100th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone, plans were set into motion to celebrate the legacy of this majestic, old building. Its years of faithful service and its stalwart beauty needed to be re-appreciated.
Time Capsule Opening
As a part of this anniversary year’s celebration, the cornerstone was opened on May 9, 2001. County Highway Department workers toiled for hours to open the stone and eventually they found the time capsule hidden within. The next day, May 10th, the time capsule was opened and its contents saw the light of day for the first time in 100 years. The tin box, lined with copper, contained 117 items placed in it by county officials and residents 100 years ago.
The time capsule contained newspapers, paper documents from organizations and churches, business cards, 1901 stamps and coins, a small metal plaque memorializing the contractors Wurthmann and Vollmar, commemorative ribbons from the cornerstone celebration, 4 historic photographs, an original copy of Becker’s poem, speeches from the ceremony, and the script for the laying of the cornerstone ceremony. All these items appropriately reflect the people and the culture of Ozaukee County 1901.
While these items will be placed back into the cornerstone after today’s celebration, it is only fitting that our current generation also leave behind some mementos of our modern day experience as citizens of Ozaukee County. Another time capsule, reflecting this 100th anniversary celebration, will be placed near the cornerstone with the first time capsule. It will be our historic legacy to the generations yet to come. |
The 'Battle of Maastricht' was fought between German and Dutch troops as one of the first battles within the 'Gelb' invasion of the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Belgium (10 May 1940).
Maastricht was a key city in the southern Netherlands which the Germans had to take in order to reach and take the Belgian Fort Eben-Emael and thereby split the Allied armies in half.
The object of this German undertaking was thus to take the bridges over the Maas river before they could be blown, in order to have an easier road to France. The Germans therefore sent in teams disguised as civilians whose task it was to sabotage the bridge charges. However, the members of these teams were spotted, arrested and, if they attempted to run, shot.
The sluice complex at Borgharen, just to the north of Maastricht, was one of many water-control works which the Dutch could not permit to be destroyed, so a small infantry force was stationed there with light fire support from a casemate with a machine gun. In the early morning of 10 May, a patrol of six German motorised infantrymen approached the eastern guard post. This was a reconnaissance party, and when ordered to stop, four of the Germans were taken prisoner while the other two were able to escape. The Dutch lieutenant commanding the little garrison was sure that the Germans would soon arrive in greater strength, and ordered his men to remain on high alert. Not much later, more German soldiers appeared on motorcycles. The Dutch let them approach to within 55 yards (50 m) before opening fire with two machine guns and every rifle available. The Germans fell back, but this was only a temporary matter as they then returned in greater strength and the Dutch defenders were overwhelmed. The defenders tried to pull back to the sluice in a movement rendered very difficult by the ever-increasing German fire. The men at the sluice itself were able to resist the Germans, but the south-eastern group, which defended the northern entrance into Maastricht, had to surrender after its machine gun failed. The gap that now existed in the outer defences of the city was soon penetrated by the majority of the Germans who had fought to take the sluice.
Generalleutnant Johann Joachim Stever’s 4th Panzerdivision, an element of General Viktor von Schwedler’s IV Corps of Generaloberst Walter von Reichenau’s 6th Army within Generaloberst Fedor von Bock’s Heeresgruppe 'B', met Dutch resistance around Gulpen, delaying it for several hours. A column instructed to advance against Maastricht from the south was able to move forward more rapidly, and appeared in front of the outer defences at Heugem. There, the barricades had been sealed and locked as instructed. The defending unit was ordered to move back behind the Maas river once it become clear that the outer defences had been penetrated.
It was now up to the rearguard of the outer defences to slow the German advance. The rearguard managed to destroy two armoured cars and block the road for the remaining vehicles. When the German infantry had almost reached the rearguard’s position, the Dutch sergeant in command ordered an organised retreat, and the rearguard reached the west bank of the Maas river a little later.
At this time, only the railway bridge remained intact. The Germans felt that it could be a very useful crossing point for their armour, especially as it was defended by only 35 Dutch soldiers. As the Germans advanced to the bridge, they were briefly checked by the Dutch defenders, however, and a few Germans were killed. However, the Dutch soon fell back in the face of what was now overwhelming numbers. As the Germans began to cross the bridge, the pre-planted charges were triggered and the resulting explosion dropped the bridge into the river. After all of the bridges over the Maas river had been destroyed, the only task remaining to the Dutch defenders was to hold off the Germans for as lengthy a time as possible.
At the destroyed bridges in Maastricht, stray Dutch units continued piecemeal attacks on the Germans; the Dutch were spread over many strategic points, one such being a sniper squad in the towers of the bridge. When the Germans sited an anti-tank gun in front of the bridge, aimed at the adjacent St Servaasbrug, the Dutch instantly killed the gun’s crew, and then a replacement crew crew shared the same fate. The Germans attempted to cross the Maas river in a small number of rubber boats, but were shot to pieces and the Germans then fell back from this location.
It was at the destroyed railway bridge that the heaviest fighting took place. What remained of the German force which had tried to take the bridge was soon reinforced. Two armoured cars tried to approach the east bank but were destroyed by the fire of anti-tank rifles, and a light tank also succumbed to the same weapons. The German losses were high. However, soon after this, three more German armoured cars approached. The situation for the lightly armed Dutch infantry had become critical. Many defenders were killed or wounded by the German fire, and soon one of the two anti-tank rifles was destroyed. The headquarters were contacted and advised of the situation. From the time of this contact, it became clear that the Dutch resistance at Maastricht had been ordered to cease.
Luitenant-kolonel Govers, the territorial commander of Limburg, had called a meeting later in the day. The German battle plan had been found on a German prisoner during the morning: all the German units were mentioned and maps with directions were also included in the catch. It was clear that all the bridges had been destroyed. It was also clear than an entire Panzer division was deployed in southern Limburg. Govers had only two companies left under his command, and these lacked both anti-tank guns and artillery. Govers appreciated the fact that the ancient city of Maastricht, with all its cultural heritage, should not suffer more than necessary for no positive military advantage. Thus the meeting decided that all further opposition to the Germans in and around Maastricht, the last standing defences in Limburg, should cease. Govers himself went to the Wilhelminabrug under a flag of truce and established contact, and a few hours later all Dutch troops in Maastricht and its surroundings capitulated.
The battle in south Limburg had cost the lives of 47 Dutch soldiers (two officers, seven non-commissioned officers and 38 other ranks). The German overall losses are not known in detail, although at some scenes accurate figures are available. It is estimated that between 130 and 190 Germans died in the fighting in the south. After the battle, it was reported that 186 German bodies were found. It is confirmed from German material that nine armoured cars and tanks were destroyed in Limburg. Also, 10 German aircraft, mainly Junkers Ju 52/3m three-engined transports and Ju 87 single-engined dive-bombers, crashed or were shot down in the south of Limburg. |
'Rädda Danmark' was the Swedish unrealised plan to liberate Denmark before it was occupied by the westward advance of the Soviet forces toward Berlin, but cancelled at the time of the German surrender (1945).
On 4 May 1945 the head of the Swedish defence staff, Generalmajor Carl August Ehrensvärd, approved the final decisions concerning the Swedish invasion of eastern Denmark, planning for which had begun at a time late in 1943. The invasion was to be be launched at the time the Allied advance reached western Denmark, and was spurred, at least in part, by the fact that at a time late in April a USAAF officer, Major General Frederick L. Anderson, had visited Sweden and persuaded Per Albin Hansson, the Swedish prime minster, to bring his country into the war on the Allied side.
'Rädda Danmark' comprised a pair of sub-comonents in the form of 'Rädda Själland' and 'Rädda Bornholm', Själland being the large island of eastern Denmark where Copenhagen is situated, and Bornholm an island in the Baltic Sea to the south of Skåne. The two operations needed 1,158 troop transport vessels, most of them quite small, and about 100 naval vessels. The invasion was to be spearheaded by the III Corps comprising the 1st and 9th Divisions, the 8th Armoured Brigade and the 7th Motorised Brigade, together with numerous but smaller independent units and about 4,000 Danish soldiers trained in Sweden. The total strength was thus to be about 60,000 men with some 6,000 vehicles, excluding the naval and air force elements.
The opposing occupation force on Själland comprised about 28,000 soldiers, and the Germans had prepared the demolition of the island’s harbours. In Helsingør a ship had been prepared for scuttling as as a blockship in the harbour’s entrance, and the harbour in Copenhagen had also prepared in a similar manner.
The German naval strength in Copenhagen included the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, the light cruiser Nürnberg, four destroyers and a number of smaller vessels such as minesweepers, patrol ships and the like.
Swedish and Danish troop concentrations in Skåne had already begun, and the date for the invasion was set at 18 May at the earliest. The first wave of the Swedish assault, which was to descend on Helsingør, would comprise about 6,000 men, and on the Skåne coast artillery of 8.27- and 5.91-in (21- and 15-cm) calibres would provide supporting fire, which would be increased in weight by the fire of the elderly Swedish coastal battleships Oscar II and Tapperheten with their main and secondary batteries of 8.23- and 6-in (209- and 152-mm) guns. Most of the Swedish air force would be based in the Skåne area to give air cover and attack ground targets.
In the event Bornholm was heavily bombarded by Soviet forces in May 1945, but the island’s German commander, Kapitän Gerhard von Kamptz, refused to surrender as his orders were to surrender to the Western Allies rather than the Soviets. When von Kamptz failed to provide a written capitulation as demanded by the Soviets, Soviet warplanes bombed and destroyed more than 800 civilian houses in Rønne and Nexø, and seriously damaged about 3,000 more, in the course of 7/8 May. On 9 May Soviet troops landed on the island, and after a short fight, the German garrison of about 12,000 men surrendered. The Soviets ended their occupation of the island on 5 April 1946. |

Starbucks Frappuccinos are sweet, flavored frozen drinks made in a blender. The name “Frappuccino” comes from combining the words “frappe” and “cappuccino.”
Frappuccinos can be made with or without caffeine but they can’t be made sugar-free since the Frappuccino base is made with sugar.
Frappuccino base syrup is the secret to making Frappuccinos exactly like Starbucks. It’s what gives the frozen drink that smooth, creamy texture. Make a batch of the Frappuccino base syrup first so that it’s ready to use whenever you want to make a Frappuccino.
Put ingredients into the blender as it’s shown on the ingredient list. Don’t put ice in first since you won’t get an efficient blend.
If you don’t want to use Frappuccino base syrup, you can just use simple syrup to sweeten but it won’t have the same smooth Frappuccino texture.
Using a handheld milk frother is the quickest and easiest way to make homemade whipped cream. Whisk until you get peaks in the heavy cream, which should take about 30 seconds. Whisk a few seconds longer to get stiffer peaks.

Illumination and Ambiance:
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood. If possible, maximize the use of natural light. Additionally, consider a layered lighting approach, incorporating task lighting for grooming, ambient lighting for overall illumination, and accent lighting to highlight design elements.
Hiring Skilled Professionals:
While DIY projects can be rewarding, complex bathroom renovations often demand the expertise of professionals. Whether it’s architects, interior designers, plumbers, or electricians, assembling a skilled team ensures a smoother remodeling process and high-quality results.
Time frame and Patience:
Remodeling takes time, and delays can occur due to unforeseen issues or material shortages. Patience is key. Set realistic expectations and be prepared for the process to take longer than initially anticipated.
Finalizing the Details:
The finishing touches are what brings the entire design together. Consider accessories such as mirrors, towel racks, art, and plants to infuse personality and character into the space.

By the end of Juliet, A Revenge Comedy, I was completely into it.
In the script, which was written by Ryan Gladstone and Pippa Mackie, Juliet from Romeo and Juliet finds herself in a kind of Shakespearean Groundhog Day: she keeps falling in love, losing her virginity, and killing herself. But, in a clever convention that I won’t give away, she figures out how to break the spell and starts to understand that she might be able to write her own narrative.
On her adventure, which takes her into the worlds of several plays, she meets Lady Macbeth, Ophelia, and Cleopatra, as well Miranda from The Tempest — all of whom are caught in their own loops.
The idea of female characters trying to escape the stories that have been imposed up them is of course, feminist. And Shakespeare himself appears in A Revenge Comedy as the villain who’s trying to maintain control of the discourse. As a fan who loves the best of Shakespeare’s work, while understanding the problems with its cultural dominance, I was worried at first that this show might be thoughtlessly dismissive of its strengths. But, as I see things, A Revenge Comedy is gunning more for the patriarchy than for the playwright. A Revenge Comedy never examines the relative merits of Shakespeare’s female characters, with any depth, for instance, and it never addresses the historical context in which they were written. Within its feminist framing, this script is mostly into having a very, very good time with absurdity.
That’s not to say that some of the jokes aren’t pointed. Many of the absurdities arise from the texts. Ophelia complains that Hamlet gets all the best lines for instance. Rebelling against her proposed marriage to Paris, Juliet exclaims, “I’m thirteen!”, and, as the scales start to fall from her eyes about her much-vaunted love for Romeo, it dawns on her that, when she kills herself, she’s only known the guy for two days.
But there’s a whole lot in this show that’s hilarious simply because it’s so audacious and unexpected. I’ll give you one example, my favourite. I’m not worried that giving it away will spoil anything because, for me at least, it never gets old: when the Nurse enters Juliet’s chamber after she’s had sex with Romeo, she stops and says, “Smells funny in here. Like warm cantaloupe and the inside of an old glove.”
Another random bit: a witch from Macbeth explains that one of the other witches isn’t there because she caught Covid: “They like to do their own research.”
Lili Beaudoin’s Juliet is slyly engaging, innocent at first, but increasingly curious. And, when Juliet is about to deliver one last kiss to the dead Romeo’s lips, she makes it hilariously pervy: “Haply some poison yet doth hang on them.”
Playing Shakespeare in various guises, Ryan Gladstone does a great job of working throwaway rhythms: in his hands, the character feels like he’s just making shit up — and tripping over himself in the process.
And Carly Pokoradi, who’s playing all the female characters except Juliet, delivers big, bold, easily distinguishable characterizations: her Miranda is gormless, her Ophelia a flower child, her Lady M a thug. The broadness of these portraits backed me up a bit at first. But they’re appropriate for the material and I settled into them.
By the end of Juliet: A Revenge Comedy, I was fully pulling for its band of rebels.
JULIET: A REVENGE COMEDY by Ryan Gladstone and Pippa Mackie. Directed by Ryan Gladstone. On Friday, February 9. A Monster Theatre production running at the Cultch’s Historic Theatre until February 18. Tickets

Alaskan sled dogs are a genetically distinct population shaped by generations of selective interbreeding with purebred dogs to create a group of high-performance athletes. As a result of selective breeding strategies, sled dogs present a unique opportunity to employ admixture-mapping techniques to investigate how breed composition and trait selection impact genomic structure. We used admixture mapping to investigate genetic ancestry across the genomes of two classes of sled dogs, sprint and long-distance racers, and combined that with genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify regions that correlate with performance-enhancing traits. The sled dog genome is enhanced by differential contributions from four non-admixed breeds (Alaskan Malamute, Siberian Husky, German Shorthaired Pointer, and Borzoi). A principal components analysis (PCA) of 115,000 genome-wide SNPs clearly resolved the sprint and distance populations as distinct genetic groups, with longer blocks of linkage disequilibrium (LD) observed in the distance versus sprint dogs (7.5-10 and 2.5-3.75 kb, respectively). Furthermore, we identified eight regions with the genomic signal from either a selective sweep or an association analysis, corroborated by an excess of ancestry when comparing sprint and distance dogs. A comparison of elite and poor-performing sled dogs identified a single region significantly associated with heat tolerance. Within the region we identified seven SNPs within the myosin heavy chain 9 gene (MYH9) that were significantly associated with heat tolerance in sprint dogs, two of which correspond to conserved promoter and enhancer regions in the human ortholog.

‘Many Different Perspectives’ Students in the Cape Town Summer Internship Program gain professional experience and a better understanding of South Africa’s culture.
Thirteen W&L students traveled to Cape Town this summer to get experience in professional fields and learn more about South Africa’s culture, climate and history.
The Cape Town Summer Internship Program is an eight-week program offered by the Business Administration and Politics departments that combines in-class learning with field work. Students from different major disciplines engage their readings and navigate their field work through class meetings, a paper, journaling, blogging and a final poster.
Participating students work 30 hours a week in various fields that match their professional interests, such as advertising, education, finance, human rights and web development. They get practical experience, but also enjoy the opportunity to give back to the community.
“This experience has helped me refine the career I am interested in pursuing in the future,” said Sam Pumphrey ’20, who worked at the Centre for Rural Legal Studies. “It gave me a deeper understanding of the organization’s activities and the political climate within South Africa.”
From visiting the Cape of Good Hope to doing service on Mandela Day, the students immersed themselves in the local community. Their internships, along with other site-based and classroom learning opportunities, foster a deeper understanding of South Africa’s post‐apartheid political system and societal landscape.
While interning at Workers World Media Production, Tate Mikkelsen ’20 attended the protest on Refugee Day in the city of Cape Town and interviewed the people present there.
“I felt very lucky to have witnessed something like that and to be able to gain so many different perspectives of it,” Mikkelsen said. “I also realized that I want to get more involved in improving the global community, and I want to work more with NGOs to help people in need gain access.”
Through this internship, students have gained invaluable insight into their future careers— as well as their role in the global work force.
“I was given an opportunity to pursue a line of work that was not only fulfilling and aligned to my skills,” said Jonathan Pezzi ’19, one of the two SHECP interns in South Africa, “but also had the potential to make a positive contribution to people’s lives.”

Traditionally, learning takes place in physical sessions, but now it is possible to get a top-notch education from the comfort of your own home. Live online classes http://www.legalwebtech.com/use-your-time-effectively-with-board-portals/ offer a a comprehensive portfolio of benefits and are generally an effective way to get your official certification goals.
On-line learners can savor the convenience of communicating with instructors through real-time sound or online video calls, and the interaction may take the form of discussions or perhaps group activities. This kind of interaction makes the encounter considerably more engaging for young students and is a fantastic way to get your issues answered.
Additionally , most asynchronous courses feature pre-recorded videos of lectures and notes from a class that are available for individuals to watch at their leisure. The trainer or a scholar assistant can be available through email or perhaps text chat to answer questions that may arise from lecture materials.
Students can go over course products with other students and create a social bond, which will helps all of them learn the material more effectively. Many academies also incorporate gamification and other fun activities within their live classes, which keeps college students engaged and increases determination to learn.
Although studying internet, it is important for individuals to prepare well in advance for the class. Thorough preparing will help students avoid slipping behind and permits them to stay concentrated for longer periods of time. It is also recommended for students to use a headset with a microphone and a cam in order to be read and seen by instructors. |
In the first part of this two part series we discussed two unrelated movies intended as hopeful pilots for television series, Spectre and The Questor Tapes. In this second part, we are going to look at a single story that had three different attempts at getting a series off the ground. Genesis II, Planet Earth, and Strange New World all tell the story of character or characters having survived the collapse of civilization on Earth while in suspended animation and attempting to re-integrate into the world that was left.
Genesis II (1973): In 1979, Dylan Hunt (Alex Cord) was testing a suspended animation chamber he helped design in the Carlsbad Caverns, when the caves around the chamber he was in collapsed and the system failed to wake him at the end of the test. 133 years later, he is found by the organization known as “PAX” (Latin for “peace”) and is revived only to find that the world he left behind no longer exists and the “Great Conflict” has turned Earth into a very different place. The people of PAX are the original descendants of the explorers and scientists that worked and lived in the Carlsbad installation. At first Dylan is unable to move or respond and it is only by being nursed back to health by Lyra-a (Mariette Hartley) that he is able to survive. But this has its own problems, she is a spy for the Tyranians, mutants that seek the power and resources that PAX has and treat non-mutated humans as slaves. Lyra-a is able to convince Dylan that PAX has been ravaging and plundering the world for over a century, and helps him escape to her home, where his knowledge of nuclear power is greatly needed, as the power plant that provides electricity to their people is about to fail. Dylan soon realizes that the people of PAX were not what Lyra-a described them to be and sets out to escape his captivity by the Tyranians.
Of the three movies, this one probably had the best story and execution. Alex Cord as Dylan had a certain charm and appeal. He was relatable with a calm and, at times, sensual nature. This was needed as the theme of sex and lust was prevalent within the film. A large portion of the population of the new Earth believed that the downfall of civilization was the “giving in” to sexual and lustful desires. Although the story was interesting, the script was a bit corny at times, falling into many of the cliched trappings of other 1970s television series.
CBS passed on picking up the series and opted for the short lived Planet of the Apes live action program instead. A humorous bit of trivia, the dual navels used to identify the mutants in the story was a jab at the censors that Roddenberry had to deal with while making Star Trek, having to continually reshoot scenes if someone’s bellybutton could be seen. So now that he could show them, he doubled the amount that the audience would see. Roddenberry had also mapped out several episodes for the show, including a trip to the London of 2133 and an episode where Dylan was captured by a society of women who treated men as pets and property. This latter plot brings us to the second Movie.
Planet Earth (1974): Building off the premise of the plot of the unmade episode listed above, the second attempt to make Roddenberry’s post-apocalyptic series is more of a direct sequel than a re-tooling. The movie switched networks from CBS to ABC and also recast Dylan Hunt replacing Alex Cord with John Saxon. The Dylan of Planet Earth is reminiscent of William Shatners portrayal of Captain Kirk adding more machismo and bravado and taking the character from an intelligent scientist to more of an explorer. Dylan, having joined PAX leads a team exploring the world around them, hoping to help what societies are left. While on such a mission, the team is attacked by the Kreeg, technology driven militaristic mutants. Team member, Pater Kimbridge (Rai Tasco) is wounded and will die if he does not get a very risky operation. The only doctor in the area that could save him, disappeared the year before in an area known as the Confederacy of Ruth, a post-apocalyptic matriarchal society where men are treated as slaves bought and sold at auction. When all the men are captured, it comes to light that a drug is being used to keep them subdued and in fear. Dylan, with the help of Harper-Smyther (Janet Margolin), the only female team member, find the doctor and come up with a plan to get him back to the PAX installation to save Pater. While their plan is in action, the Kreegs attack and the enslaved men, coming out of their stupor after secretly being given a cure, save the day.
Unfortunately watching this in the present time gave me a bit of a cringe worthy response and does have a slight male chauvinistic bent, it is also self-aware of this fact and Dylan even calls himself a “male chauvinist” with in the episode. It is also interesting to note, that at the end of the episode, the Pax team do not attempt to take control and the women still rule over the men, and some of the men stay freely, the men are just free from the drug that kept them subdued. Harper also states that a female led society does have some merit. But the depiction of women needing to be saved by men is a product of its time.
In the long run, the episode just didn’t have the same feeling as many other Roddenberry projects. Although John Saxon’s Dylan is not a dislikeable character, he isn’t as interesting as Alex Cord’s dark brooding style. The focus on action and adventure doesn’t lead to much character development and there is no real connection or chemistry between the characters making it really hard to empathize with what is happening on screen. An interesting thing to note, in both Genesis II and Planet Earth, there are scenes where violence is used in front of children, and this immediately shows the effect our own violence has on children forcing the characters to rethink the use of force.
Strange New World (1975): Remaining on ABC and still starring John Saxon, the story and origin of Strange New World was retooled and is not a direct sequel to either of the previous versions. John Saxon is Captain Anthony Vico, the head of a team of three astronauts testing out a suspended animation system aboard a spacecraft above the Earth known as PAX. When an asteroid storm threatens their safety, the PAX homebase changes the trajectory of their craft to orbit the sun and puts them into suspended animation for 180 years. With little time left before the asteroids bombard the Earth, the families of the astronauts are brought to an underground PAX facility and also put into hibernation. When the team awakes, they are informed of what has happened and given the mission to return to Earth and find the PAX facility to awaken those who are still in suspended hibernation. Joining Anthony is Dr. Allison Crowley (Kathleen Miller) the navigator and systems expert, and Dr. William Scott (Keene Curtis) a brilliant medical doctor and scientist. The movie is split between two separate storylines. The first shows a civilization who has conquered death by harvesting body parts from clones of themselves, but this has lowered their immunity and their leader, being over 200 years old is beginning to suffer from dementia and will not last much longer. In order to save this colony, they need the blood of the team of outsiders, but unfortunately, the process will kill our heroes. The resulting conflict ends in tragedy for the colony. The second story is almost the exact opposite, with two groups of survivors living in the wild, not quite savages, but not quite civilized either. One group believes it is their job to protect the wild animals that now roam the area while the other is fighting for the natural resources to survive. It is up to our team of heroes to help teach them how to work together and not depend on violence or physical punishment as a way of life.
Out of the three movies, I found this one the most interesting, but it was not the most cohesive or the best made. Having three main characters begins to fix some of the issues the other two movies were missing, a good connection between characters and a bit more character development. I liked Kathleen Miller’s and Keene Curtis’ characters and the two different stories felt more like episodes in a television series than a movie. It was missing the polish and finesse that could have elevated it to something more memorable and action oriented fight scenes seemed to take importance over thematic exploration of ethical and emotional scenarios. Out of the three, I could see this one being retooled today into something amazing.
In this series we looked at five television movies that were intended as pilots, and although none of them never came to fruition, Gene did have a couple non-Trek shows make it to series posthumously. Most notably, Earth Final Conflict (1997 – 2002) and Andromeda (2000-2005). In all of his work, Roddenberry tried to instill an optimism that humanity can and will do better, learning from the past and correcting it’s mistakes.

Two under 1 😶🌫️🤯
My daughter will be 5 months on the 4th and I am now pregnant again. We were careful and due to health issues, birth control was not an option for me. My daughter was conceived with fertility treatments. I am shocked and terrified. According to last period, I would be 6 weeks. I am breastfeeding my daughter and I don’t want to stop. It has helped us bond so well. The pregnancy with her was so hard and she was 5 weeks early. I had hyperemesis, high blood pressure, and low amniotic fluid. I am terrified and shocked. She will be one on jan 4th and this baby would be due in jan. 🤯 I guess looking to see if anyone has had this situation that could give me some advice, and can I still breastfeed her?

Each American now spends an average of nearly $13,000 a year on health care. We have one of the highest health care costs in the world but we don’t lead on the best outcomes. How can we get more value from the $4 trillion in total the U.S. spends on health care?
Dr. Margaret Hamburg is co-chair of the Health Affairs Council on Health Care Spending and Value, which has been looking at that question. Their recommendations range from administrative streamlining to spending growth targets.
Hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter have her unpack the report and ask this former U.S. Food & Drug Administration commissioner what bumps are ahead for what they call a “roadmap to value.” |

SAP Enable Now provides access to information that can be used to build employee knowledge and capability and to support the use of systems, such as S/4HANA, Ariba and SuccessFactors. In short, SAP Enable Now helps organisations to develop a knowledgeable, efficient workforce that can continuously learn and develop new skills, to meet constantly changing business requirements.
To access information from SAP Enable Now, employees must have their own user account in Enable Now. In the vast majority of instances, employees will access information from Enable Now through Single Sign On (SSO) but those that do not have an account in one of their organisation’s Identity Provider (IDP) system(s), e.g. Active Directory, Azure AD or Okta, can still access content using a manual Enable Now user account. In both these scenarios, manual access or access via SSO, employees accessing content from Enable Now must have an Enable Now user account.
In one scenario, temporary employees - such as contingent workers or contractors - are able to access Enable Now content through SAP Companion, without any Enable Now account. You can learn more about this scenario by reading SAP Companion for External Workers.
Given that most employees who access information from Enable Now will have a user account in Enable Now, it is important to understand the options for managing these accounts. The rest of this post discusses options for managing Enable Now user accounts.
Types of SAP Enable Now user accounts
There are two types of user accounts in Enable Now that can be used to access content: manual user accounts and Single Sign On (SSO) user accounts. Users with manual user accounts must log into Enable Now manually, by entering their Enable Now username and password, while users with SSO user accounts are automatically authenticated and logged into Enable Now through the SSO process. SSO user accounts cannot be used to log into Enable Now manually and manual user accounts cannot be used to authenticate users by the SSO process. The two different types of account accounts are created and managed very differently, but it is possible to have users using both types of accounts simultaneously, to access Enable Now content.
Manual user accounts can be manually created in Enable Now or created using an Excel spreadsheet or LDAP import. These accounts are managed in Enable Now, including maintenance of personal information such as the user’s email address. User passwords are also maintained in Enable Now for manual user accounts.
Enable Now SSO user accounts are typically automatically created by Enable Now when the corresponding user first attempts to access content from Enable Now, is authenticated by the organisation’s IDP, but has no existing user account. Enable Now Administrators can modify the user Role assigned to SSO accounts and can also deactivate and delete these accounts, but all other account maintenance must be performed in the IDP.
In SAP Enable Now, there are several common administrative tasks associated with the maintenance of user accounts. These tasks include:
Resetting the passwords of manual user accounts; passwords for SSO user accounts are managed in the organisation’s IDP, not in Enable Now
Assigning new user Roles to individual user accounts. This is typically done to allow the corresponding user to access additional Enable Now functionality, e.g., assigning the Master Authors Role to an existing user account to allow the corresponding individual to author content
Deactivating and deleting user accounts that are no longer required.
Only Enable Now users with the standard Role called Administrators will typically have the necessary user Permissions to be able to successfully administer user accounts. This may not be the case for organisations that are using custom user Roles in Enable Now.
Deactivating and deleting user accounts
In SAP Enable Now, every active user account consumes one Enable Now user license; every account can access an unlimited amount of content on any topic. At some point, individual Enable Now user accounts may become redundant, e.g., the corresponding user leaves the organisation or changes roles and no longer requires access to Enable Now content. In these situations, it is possible to deactivate the corresponding user account in Enable Now so that it no longer consumes an Enable Now license. It is also possible to permanently delete a user account from Enable Now, however, deleting user accounts should only occur when the corresponding users leave the organisation permanently.
Deactivated accounts can be reactivated if the corresponding user requires access to Enable Now content at a future date, but deleted accounts must be recreated. There is no way to restore deleted user accounts.
Enable Now contains functionality that can be used to automatically deactivate dormant user accounts. This functionality can be configured to automatically deactivate user accounts, if the corresponding individuals do not access Enable Now content within a specified period of time, e.g., 3 months.
Whilst the automatic deactivation functionality has been widely used by Enable Now customers, many found that it resulted in user support issues. Prior to the 2206 (June 2206) release of Enable Now, the automatic deactivation functionality did indeed deactivate user accounts – both manual and SSO user accounts – but if the corresponding individuals then attempted to access Enable Now content, they would be prompted to log in with another manual Enable Now user account because their main account had been deactivated. This was generally not possible, because very few Enable Now users have a second manual user account, so resulted in great frustration. Ultimately, this issue required Enable Now Administrators to manually reactivate user accounts that had been incorrectly deactivated so resulted in increased administration effort.
The 2206 release of Enable Now greatly improved this situation because it introduced the option for customers to have Enable Now automatically reactivate SSO user accounts that had been deactivated. This means that Enable Now customers can use the automatic deactivation functionality to deactivate user accounts, that are not actively consuming Enable Now content, with the knowledge that if the user does attempt to access content in the future, Enable Now will automatically reactive their account and provide access to the relevant content. Now that is sweet! For more information on the automatic deactivation and reactivation functionality, watch Automatic User Account Deactivation and Reactivation.
The 2206 release of Enable Now not only simplified the user account activation and deactivation process, it also introduced enhanced user account deletion functionality. Prior to the 2206 release, Enable Now Administrators had to use the Manager Housekeeping functionality to remove user accounts. To cut a long story short, this was very difficult, bordering on impossible, in some instances because the corresponding user accounts were associated with other data in Enable Now, so could not be deleted.
Following the 2206 release of Enable Now, it is now possible for Enable Now Administrators to delete user records from the Users screen in Manager. An Administrator need only select the relevant user accounts and click a Delete button to remove those accounts. A task that was cumbersome and frustrating has been replaced by a process that can be easily completed by several clicks of a mouse. If the automatic reactivation of user accounts is an ice-cream sundae, this is the cherry on the top! If you are interested in seeing how to delete user records in Manager using the new functionality, watch Deleting Enable Now User Accounts.
User management is an important part of administering Enable Now systems. Manually created Enable Now user accounts are managed in Enable Now, while SSO user accounts are, to a large part, administered in the organisation’s IDP.
The 2206 release of Enable Now significantly improved the process of deactivating and reactivating user accounts and also simplified the task of deleting user accounts from Enable Now. Overall, the challenging task that was user management prior to the 2206 release of Enable Now, has been replaced by simple, efficient functionality that empowers organisations to control their Enable Now user numbers.
If you struggled with managing user account in Enable Now previously, give it another try; you'll be surprise how easy it now is! |
Allow customers to add rows to a form
I am creating a form to allow our customers to order new stock. I would like to give them the option to add rows per stock item and have multiple options per row. For example each row on the form would have 4 fields:
- Item (drop down of all items that can be ordered)
- Qty in stock (numerical field where the customer can add how much stock they have)
- Order (a tick box which the customer can tick to advise they want to order)
- Suggested amount (how much they would like to order)
I am not precious about how this is done and configured (i.e. using logic) but it needs to be one form per order. If allowing customers to add their own rows is not possible I could default the form to have 20 rows and the customer can use as many as they need. I guess the main question is how to display multiple fields that are linked on a form. |
The 15 minutes before a job interview can be harrowing, especially for job seekers who aren’t sure what to do with that time.
“Those 15 minutes are your opportunity to get yourself into the right frame of mind, and set your energy and focus on who you’ll be meeting with, what you want them to remember about you, and what you want to ask them,” says Deborah Shane, a professional branding strategist and author of “ Career Transition.”
Here are 17 things you should do in the 15 minutes before a job interview to help you land the job.
1. Arrive early, but don’t go inside
Few things can shake you more than running late to an interview, so always arrive early. But be sure to wait in your car or a nearby café, as being too early can place unnecessary pressure on your interviewer and start the meeting off on the wrong foot, says David Parnell, a legal consultant, communication coach, and author of “ The Failing Law Firm: Symptoms and Remedies.”
Rita Friedman, a Philadelphia-based career coach, says you shouldn’t walk into the office building more than 10 minutes early. “It can come across as an imposition, as if you are expecting the interviewer to drop whatever he or she is doing to attend to you.”
2. Stay calm
When you become stressed, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol and epinephrine. Depending on the level of your stress, these can slightly or greatly inhibit your ability to think clearly, Parnell says.
“Ensuring that you remain calm, collected, and cool in the minutes leading up to the interview is necessary to avoid this hormonal elixir, and keep your mind clear,” he says.
Career coach Anita Attridge agrees. She says staying calm before and during an interview allows you to listen better and to stay focused on how to best respond to questions.
“In addition, you are better able to think how you can best present your accomplishments in alignment with what is important to the interviewer — and being calm also demonstrates your ability to deal with stressful situations.”
This will help you remain calm. “Counting your breath is one of the most immediate and impactful techniques for calming your nerves,” Parnell says. “Simply focus on your breaths, counting each until you reach 10, and repeat.”
4. Briefly review your notes
Before the interview, you should write on a few note cards some key information like your interviewers’ names, titles, and relationships to the position, Attridge suggests. Also include answers to questions you hope you won’t be asked so you can worry less about them, as well as your pitch for when someone says, “Tell me about yourself.”
Take the 15 minutes before the interview to review these notes. “You don’t want to walk in asking for ‘Jim’ when you really mean ‘John,'” Friedman says.
5. But don’t do any additional research
You should be done researching, preparing, and rehearsing. “This is not the time to be using your phone to look up the company’s recent achievements or earnings report. Giving big numbers of projects a glance at the last second is a good way to misinterpret key information,” Friedman says.
6. Don’t check your voicemail or email
You may hear or read something that will get you all worked up, Shane says. It will distract you and throw you off your game, which is one of the worst things that can happen.
7. But do check Twitter or the companies’ LinkedIn
“Take a glance at the company’s Twitter feed just to make sure no major game changers or hot topics have popped up since you did your research,” Friedman says. “If something relevant has started trending in the last couple of hours, you don’t necessarily have to be the one to bring it up, but you’ll want to appear in-the-know in case it’s what everyone is focused on.”
8. Decide on one or two things you want to be remembered for
Is it your communications skills? Project management skills? Knowledge? “Keying in on a few things that will impact your memorability and likability is a smart way to approach the interview,” Shane says.
9. But stop rehearsing
You don’t want to use this time to over-prepare or rehearse responses, which can make your conversation seem scripted and inauthentic. “You want to know your stuff, but remember your interview is a conversation. Trust that you know what you know and that the interview will take on a flow of its own,” Shane says.
10. Organize your bag
“Make sure you can easily pull the copies of your resume out of your bag without rummaging through it or exposing any personal items,” Friedman suggests. “You don’t want to look disorganized while you’re presenting your qualifications.”
11. Look in a mirror
Duck into a nearby restroom to check yourself out in the mirror, Friedman suggests. “You may have left the house looking like a million dollars, but you could still arrive looking like a vagabond.”
This is also a great time to wash your hands and make sure your fingernails are clean and your palms are dry. If you wore comfortable shoes and plan on changing into dress shoes, be sure not to do this in the office.
12. Be friendly to all receptionists and security guards
When you do finally walk into the office’s waiting room, remember to be nice to the receptionist, security guards, or whoever greets you. “It’s very likely that he or she will be reporting back to the hiring manager about how you behaved,” Friedman says.
13. Focus on your posture
Sit in a power pose while waiting to go in for your job interview. “You’ll come across as looking more confident and poised,” Friedman says.
14. Notice what is happening around you
Observe what the office environment feels like, what’s on the walls, and what mementos are in the reception area. ” These indicate what is important to the company,” Attridge says.
15. Drink water
It’s always a good idea to bring along some water with you. The receptionist will usually ask you if you would like some prior to your interview, but bringing your own is always a safe call.
Having a sip of water will cool you down and soothe your voice before you begin telling the hiring coordinator about all of your accomplishments. Plus, if you do need water during the interview, you don’t want to have to interrupt it in order to get some from out of the room!
16. Brainstorm one more question for the interviewer
You should already have a couple of questions ready to ask your interviewer at the end of your time together. However, before you go into the interview, see if you can think of any others that come up.
It could be as simple as asking about the resources available in the office and how that plays into the company culture i.e. “I noticed you have quite a few conference rooms and group workspaces — is there a lot of collaboration between team members?”
17. Think happy thoughts
This may sound cliché – but thinking of pleasant things that make you smile and feel good will help put you in the right state of mind going into the interview.

What is Power of Attorney?
Chances are, most people have heard of a “Power of Attorney” and may even have a vague understanding of what it does. Too often, however, we find that there are certain myths upheld as truth in regards to what a power of attorney does and doesn’t do.
So, what exactly is it – and why is it useful?
A power of attorney is a document that you sign naming someone else to handle your business and personal affairs. A common misconception is that this document only comes into play if you’re sick or incapacitated in some way and unable to handle your own affairs. It’s true that in the past, those types of power of attorneys could be drafted, but we had a change in the Florida law and after 2011, a power of attorney is effective the moment that it’s signed. It can then continue throughout any incapacity. It’s a very powerful document that you will want to keep secure so that it can’t be misused.
Another common misconception is that you can use a power of attorney to handle the affairs of the principal (that is the person who had named you as their power of attorney) after the principal has died. The truth is, the power of attorney becomes void when the person who gave it to you passes away. It becomes completely ineffective on death and can not be used at all.
Generally there are two types of power of attorney. We have the “general power of attorney”, which is broad and gives sweeping rights to whomever you name to handle your business affairs. This type of power attorney would be drafted to allow someone to do everything on your behalf – talk to your banks, talk to medicare or medicaid, handle insurance companies, etc – so that they can act as you in every single way you require. You can also do what is called the “limited power of attorney”, which is just what it sounds like. It’s a limited version of this document that allows you to name the very specific rights that the person can exercise on your behalf. For example: if you wanted someone to handle your banking for you but did not want to allow them to speak with the IRS, we can make that designation.
The limited power of attorney is used a lot in real estate transactions so that if it’s inconvenient for someone to attend their real estate closing, you can name a friend, family member or even your realtor as a designated signer on your behalf. We can draft the power of attorney to be that specific. If there is a lender involved in a transaction, they frequently require a specific power of attorney that addresses this power itself, even if a general power of attorney already exists.
It’s also important to understand that when you’re signing this power of attorney and giving these broad rights to someone, that person can do anything for you. That includes, unfortunately, stealing from you! If you put your trust in someone unwisely, that person can to to the bank, clean out your bank accounts, and the bank would have no liability to you whatsoever because there was a power of attorney in place. Your only recourse in this situation is to sue the “bad guy”, which can be a lengthy and expensive process. A power of attorney is a great document but it is a document that must be drafted and used wisely and kept safe.
Many of you may have, or may have seen, what is called a “springing power of attorney” – this is a power of attorney that only goes into effect if you are incapacitated or unable to handle your own affairs. It’s very important to know that the change of law in 2011 has rendered those types of power of attorney invalid. If you have one, now is a good time to pull it out, take a look at it, and see what it says. If your power of attorney is, in fact, this outdated version then you will have to obtain a new one. |
Coming Soon: Il Mercato Centrale Has Officially Broken Ground on Its Australian-First Venue in Melbourne's CBD
The Italian artisan market is set to be one of Melbourne CBD's biggest hospitality venues yet.
January 22, 2024
Australians have hotly anticipated the opening of the very first Il Mercato Centrale in Melbourne ever since it was first announced in 2022. At that time, it was expected to launch late the same year. But it's now 2024, and we still have no hard date for its opening.
The highly ambitious venture came across a heap of setbacks, as the team behind it is determined to create a hospitality venue unlike anything that Melbourne has ever seen. All the red tape has now been sorted, however, and construction is charging ahead at 546 Collins Street at lightning speed.
First off, the 3500-square-metre space, spread across three stories, truly is enormous. The first floor will have a market feel to it but with more flash, fun and tech. Each of the vendors will be slinging their own specialty goods, with none competing with the other.
There'll be a bakery, patisserie, pasta shop, pizza joint, cheese maker, butcher and seafood stall, to name a few. Here, you can get fresh produce to take away or order it to be cooked up right in front of you. That means that you can buy a steak to eat at home or ask them to pop it on the grill while you start on some wine that you ordered from the bar right in the centre of the ground floor. Want to make it a surf and turf? Order some grilled calamari from the seafood stall next door and create your own feast.
Conveniently, you'll be able to order from any and all vendors all in one transaction by using a QR code — or even pre-order from your office to pick up when it's ready. It going to be one of the easiest Melbourne food halls to order from.
Then, on the second floor of Melbourne's Il Mercato Centrale, you'll find a fine-dining restaurant, cocktail bar, pasta restaurant (all made by hand), pizzeria, gelateria, wine bar, a gin and vodka distillery, and live music stage. We told you, it's huge. Up here, you'll even be able to order some of the food from downstairs to be delivered to you.
Say you're sipping on a negroni at the bar upstairs and get a bit hungry. All you've got to do is order a cheeseboard and perhaps some slices of pizza on your phone, and the team will bring it up to you. If it all works out how the crew wants it to, it will be a huge feat of tech and service ingenuity.
The top floor of Il Mercato Centrale will then be dedicated to private events and masterclasses, where each of the vendors will run workshops on their particular trades each month.
There will even be a big outdoor seating area right on Collins Street, something that was not easy for the Il Mercato Centrale team to secure. Taking Concrete Playground on a tour of the site, General Manager Gary Patikkis couldn't share the details about the outside area, but he noted that it is set to be unlike any other street-level drinking and dining space in the CBD.
The venue will have a 3am liquor license (another rarity for new venues in Melbourne) and be open until from 7am–12am every day of the week.
Patikkis was reluctant to share any opening dates, but rest assured that Il Mercato Centrale is coming. And Melburnians and visitors alike hopefully won't have to wait much longer before being able to dine on a massive range of Italian eats in the Victorian capital's CBD.
Mercato Centrale Melbourne is set to open at 546 Collins Street, Melbourne. We'll share more information as it is announced, and you can head to the venue's website in the interim.

CertiVox Offers Free, Public Beta of PrivateSky S.I.X. ™ Platform
World’s first HTML5 browser-based, certificateless encryption platform is innovation in Internet security; users can now encrypt and exchange information through the cloud with no certificates, passwords or complex workflows
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., and LONDON, UK, March 21, 2012 – CertiVox, an information security company, today launched a free, public beta for its PrivateSky Secure Information Exchange (S.I.X.)™ platform live from World Hosting Days (WHD.Global) in Europa Park Rust, Germany – one of the most important European gatherings of the international hosting industry.
The highly anticipated PrivateSky S.I.X.™ service is an innovative breakthrough in information security which provides fast and easy-to-use protection for messages, files and other information sent via the cloud through a unique HTML5 browser-based two-factor authentication process and a sophisticated, certificateless encryption platform. Users can sign up for the PrivateSky S.I.X.™ portal beta at www.privatesky.me
The PrivateSky S.I.X.™ platform uses breakthrough patent(s)-pending Incognito Keys™ and certificateless encryption technology to provide an integrated, “built-in” key management functionality that encrypts a user’s data on any platform or any device, before it is moved to the cloud for storage and use. This first-in-the-industry process is easily activated by one click from within Outlook, a web browser or soon via any browser-based application on a PC, Mac, tablet or smartphone. Both encryption and decryption are securely completed within the user’s device with absolutely no disruption to a person’s workflow, setting it apart from other Internet security products.
“PrivateSky is a much anticipated leap forward in information security that empowers individuals, businesses and their partners and customers with easy-to-use tools to take control of their own data and protect their online exchanges and transactions from being compromised,” says CertiVox CEO Brian Spector. “By getting rid of both user burden and the need to manage complex infrastructure, we’ve taken the hassle out of Internet security, making it easy and economical for anyone to secure information exchanges for the web 2.0 internet of things. We’re thrilled to bring this breakthrough to users around the world with this beta release.”
Despite the complexity and strength of the elliptic curve cryptography technology behind it, PrivateSky was engineered for simplicity. Leveraging the power of HTML5, the authentication and encryption processes are completely browser-based with no software or browser plug-ins required. Users can now encrypt and exchange information through the cloud without the burden of certificates, passwords or complex workflows – a departure from other encryption products.
“Because so much of our personal information and financial transactions are processed across the Internet in today’s world, data encryption is the critical step to ensure unauthorized persons don’t have access to that data,” Spector adds. “People have been imagining for years what it would be like to have Internet security so powerfully simple, and now we’re delivering it. We’re looking forward to partnering with our beta users to prepare us for the official launch of PrivateSky next quarter.”
The PrivateSky S.I.X.™ platform:
· Uses breakthrough Incognito Keys™ and certificateless encryption technology to provide the only totally secure information exchange between all users on the market today, eliminating the compliance concerns that surround cloud computing.
· Departs from other products because the user encrypts his or her information right from the start at the source and retains complete control over his or her encryption keys at all times.
· Separates the encryption keys from the data while in transit which ensures that only the intended recipients can access encrypted information. Not even CertiVox has access to the encrypted data or the encryption keys – a technical breakthrough in online security and an industry first.
· Offers significant and far-reaching solutions for industries and governments that adhere to strict regulatory and privacy requirements, such as HIPAA.
· Ensures on-the-go security protection in the cloud, making encryption affordable, usable, portable and powerfully simple.
CertiVox CEO Brian Spector will be available March 20-23 for interviews and comment at the World Hosting Days conference in Europa Park Rust, Germany.
CertiVox develops and markets a certificateless encryption as a service platform that provides for management and provisioning of identities, encryption keys and cryptographic protocols that enable governments, enterprises and individuals to secure their information exchanges simply and easily. CertiVox has headquarters in San Francisco and London. For more information, visit www.CertiVox.com

No sugar, no carbs (outside of complex vegetables, only green leafy and protein, heavy on protein).
Some do not believe bariatric surgery, RNY, or by pass as some call it, is a real way to lose, because of the doctor's making your stomach into a pouch the size of an egg. It is though. Why? Because we, the patients have to maintain it and add exercise into our daily routine.
How did I get so fat, 338 lbs? It is a long story, but years ago I lost my precious daughter, then moved, twice, and tried to restart my catering business and chef career over, and over, and again. Eventually (little violins playing right about here) I honored my husbands wishes and promised not to start any other business up when my cafe closed, teaching jobs ran dry, not to mention other food related and poor economy sadness hit our area. It happened in Dallas ten years before we moved, and the reason why we moved to being with, hubs lost his job (technical IT work left the Dallas area).
I found myself home, bothered by some things, so I stuffed my face and locked myself in for about three years. I even slowed down on blogging (some may have noticed).
Well, I'm back, my new business (with the help of hubs) and career in publishing and writing has been only getting better. I still have straggler chef clients I work for here and there. I also do consulting work for the state of NJ. I'm happy.
Not my lowest weight, but 250 isn't so bad, since my goal is another 100 lbs, with a better BMI. I'll get there by the end of the year, maybe sooner. I'm still cooking for hubs, son, and clients once or twice a week. It doesn't bother me to be around food and to have had the surgery, not at all. And I joined the gym again, and told by my nutritionist and dietitian to get out of the house more, I do. My traveling stuff began again, so that has me on the road, a lot for this year.
My heaviest weight was 338 October 2013, and when I was told I had diabetes, officially. I saw a bariatric doctor in February, he set me up with the hoops you go through, but then I discovered there was an issue with Barrett's Esophagus, surgery was halted. Talk about "here we go again!" and depression. I rescheduled the endoscopy for six months, it had gotten better. My only option due to reflux and the chance of cancer in the stomach or throat, to do the bypass over the sleeve. So I gave in and went with it over no surgery and only more weight gain.
I woke up from surgery November 19th and said, "No regrets." The biggest battle is the eating. Right now I am limited, but I get what I need, a heavy protein diet. I'm consistently losing and in the gym. I am tired right now, but have heard it gets better. I feel young again. (photo above is me at 23, I didn't grow up over weight, was always fit).
The say the honeymoon period is over after two months with this surgery, but not for me! I had to fight and still am. I only wish this bragging came earlier. A reason I won't share, but it feels good to come back in full force.
Never give up! I really hadn't...
No more diabetes, no more high blood pressure, and my asthma is more manageable, like when I was in my normal weight range of 130-150. Occasionally I was 170 if I didn't exercise and eat right.
Me last week in VA at a writers conference. I read as well as my pub company sold books. I will show a full view of my body in a few months. I still have middle body fat that needs to go. Hubs says I am still sexy, no matter, and he should know!
A friend and I made this for lunch one day. A small portion with a salad or greens of some sort would make it a lunch! Yes, cauliflower crust is higher in regular pizza crust (depending on how big your slice) by 4 grams - 14 " slice of regular flour crust is 24 grams of carbs.
One site (Low Carb Pizza crust-cauliflower) claims with a nutrition label it has 14.4 carbs per serving, but gives no size. Most recipes involve adding cheese, which has carbs, Cauliflower, one head has 28-9 carbs depending on what site you read, but it takes a lot to make one small to medium size pizza crust.
Of course it doesn't taste like regular crust, but after you eat a low carb diet like I have for a year, flavor matters more in the seasoning and toppings. Tomatoes, 1 cup, have 16 grams of carbs, so you have to add that factor in. I don't mean to burst the carb bubble on cauliflower and this recipe. It is good, tastes great, and as long as you only eat one piece per meal, you're good.
I found one food site that was honest, 1 serving is 24 grams of carbs, My whole message was after my friends said cauliflower was at the level of broccoli, but it's not. Broccoli, depending on what site you find, is only 4-7 grams of carbs, that is a big difference.
This was a delicious treat for me, and I would make it again!
Educate yourself, eat smaller portions, and pass this on to the children. Obesity is growing into an even bigger (no pun intended) than you realize. Exercise (I joined a gym last night!) on a regular basis.
Update: I had my RnY bariatric surgery on Nov 19, 2014. I was heaviest at 338 lbs, and now am down to 250 lbs. I still have more to go, but am happy and healthy all around. No more diabetes, high blood pressure, and asthma is under better control.

As we all know, a low FODMAP diet means curbing your intake of all fermentable carbohydrates. Dieticians usually recommend this diet for patients who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) because it reduces digestive symptoms such as flatulence and bloating. Still, anyone can decide to make this diet a way of living.
Cheerios will forever be a favorite among children and adults, so it is quite a relief that you can still find solace in this tasty cereal. Many people believed that Cheerios could not be classified as low FODMAP since they assumed it is high in carbohydrates and sugar; however, that is not the case.
Oats are one of the foods that are considered safe to consume when you are on a low FODMAP diet. Luckily for Cheerios addicts, this breakfast food is made of oats, making it a natural, gluten-free cereal, and it consists of only one ounce of sugar per serving.
Although sugar is not FODMAP, it is best to opt for cereal that is low in sugar. Next time you go grocery shopping for breakfast cereal, check the nutritional facts label and evaluate the honey, wheat, inulin, and fruit juice concentrate. These ingredients are high FODMAP, and you cannot consume them in a low FODMAP diet.
Cheerios: Recommended Low FODMAP Serving Portion
Every diet requires willpower; that is why you need to control the serving portion. Unfortunately, you cannot eat as many Cheerios as you want; otherwise, the low FODMAP diet will simply not work.
Although we recommend using the portion size suggestion labeled on the cereal package, it is better to consume ½ a cup (approximately 52 ounce) per serving. Higher servings than 52 ounce are not considered low FODMAP, which means the cereal becomes high in fructan and GOS (a group of carbohydrates that consists of glucose and lactose).
I suggest starting with a smaller portion of Cheerios, especially if you suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). This is so you can ensure that the Cheerios do not cause any digestive problems. You can slowly increase the portion if you would like to.
How To Eat Cheerios On A Low FODMAP Diet?
If you are on a low FODMAP diet, consuming cow’s milk is not an option which means you would have to go for a milk alternative. Here is a list of low FODMAP kinds of milk:
- Soy Milk
If the soy milk is made of soybean protein, it is low FODMAP and safe to consume, but if the soy milk contains whole soybean, it is high FODMAP. So, double-check to ensure you purchase soy milk made from soybean protein.
- Coconut Milk
Coconut milk (UHT or canned) is low FODMAP but only at ½ a cup serving size. Serving sizes more than 150 fl oz contain higher levels of oligosaccharides; therefore, you should stick with the ½ (125 fl oz) serving size.
- Almond Milk
Almonds are considered high FODMAP in large servings, so why is it okay to consume almond milk in a low FODMAP diet? Almond milk is low FODMAP because almonds only make up 2% of the milk. You can safely drink 1 cup (250 fl oz) of almond milk.
- Lactose-free Milk
It is cow’s milk but with the added enzyme lactase. Lactase makes it easier for our bodies to digest the milk without experiencing stomach problems. You can safely drink 1 cup (250 fl oz) of lactose-free milk.
- Rice Milk
Monash University concluded that if you serve rice milk in 200 fl oz sizes, it is low FODMAP. Larger serving sizes have higher levels of fructans.
- Hemp Milk
Hemp milk is concocted by soaking and grinding hemp seed in water. It has a nutty taste and is safe to drink in 1 cup (250 fl oz) serving sizes.
Once you have decided which milk you would like to have with your Cheerios, you can start off your day with this tasty breakfast cereal. Keep in mind the suggested serving sizes for the milk and the Cheerios.
To keep things interesting, you can bake with Cheerios as well. Bake cakes, flapjacks, and biscuits, e.g., the famous no-bake peanut butter cereal bar. Do make sure that the ingredients you are using are also low FODMAP. You can discover tons of recipes on the internet.
Another way to spice up Cheerios is by adding some refreshing low FODMAP yogurt and fruits.
There is a good reason why breakfast is called “the most important meal of the day”. It boosts our energy levels and stimulates our bodies to start operating, so make the first meal of your day as appetizing and healthy as possible.
So, Are Cheerios Low FODMAP?
Eating healthy does not have to be torturous and bland, especially if the scrumptious Cheerios breakfast cereal can be added to the menu. Starting a low FODMAP diet can take a while to adjust to because you have to evaluate almost every ingredient before you consume the food.
Serve ½ a cup (approximately 52 ounce) of Cheerios and try not to consume larger servings; otherwise, the cereal becomes high in fructan and GOS (a group of carbohydrates that consists of glucose and lactose). |
After reading a recent post on incorporating vegetables into gnocchi (and presumably of potato/flour based pastas), I tried my own mixture of veggies and it came out great.
Here is where the consternation fits in - balancing the potato/vegetable:flour ratio to compensate for moisture while mixing. It took what seemed to be a lot longer than I thought it should, and I believe this was due to the moisture. Unfortunately, I do not have a stand mixer and hope someone can contribute a nice rule of thumb for dough and handmixing.
I started with even 1:1 ratio of pureed veggies (moisture squeezed out) to russet potatoes. for the sake of illustration lets say that came to about 6 cups of mix, I began adding all-purpose flour by the 1/2 cup, gradually folding each in with a wooden spoon in a bowl. Around the 4 cups mark I pulled the mix out and put it down on the counter and started adding it more aggressively while kneading the dough by hand (it was still sitcky enough that it left quite a cleanup). All told I think there was about a 6:8 cup ratio of potato/veggie:flour before i could start cutting and forking the little guys.
- I know it's loosely based around how much and which veggies are added, but does that 6:8 sound about right?
- Although stirring in some of the flour before putting it on the counter (to stiffen the initial mixture) seems necessary, once it holds together is folding the flour in necessary?
- What options do I have for playing around with the types of flour to cut back on moisture and minimize the amount of flour needed? (particularly, would it be better to move away from all-purpose?)
- Does it really just take forever to mix this stuff by hand? |
Spaghetti cacio e pepe is a traditional dish, a preparation born using few local ingredients.
It is a poor, popular meal whose history dates back to the days of transhumance, an ancient custom of transporting grazing animals from the rolling plains to the verdant pastures of the Roman countryside.
Shepherds and farmers, during these journeys, used to stock up on poor and not easily perishable ingredients that were easy to transport and still tasty.
And what are the typical products from Lazio that correspond to these characteristics?
Black peppercorns, a spice that stimulates heat receptors allowing shepherds to protect themselves from the cold, Roman pecorino cheese, also known as cacio, and dried spaghetti, great for filling hungry bellies after a long day of walking.
Because of their goodness and speed of execution, spaghetti cacio e pepe soon became a widespread dish throughout Italy but, as is often the case with dishes that cross regional borders, with many variations.
- 11 ounces of spaghetti
- 1+ 3/4 cup of grated Pecorino Romano cheese
- 1 teaspoon of black pepper (black peppercorns to be freshly ground)
- Salt to taste
1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente.
2. Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, toast the black pepper for about a minute, being careful not to burn it.
3. Add a ladle of pasta cooking water to the skillet with the toasted pepper and mix well.
4. Drain the spaghetti and transfer it to the skillet with the water and pepper. Mix well to combine the flavors.
5. Add the grated Pecorino Romano cheese and mix vigorously until you get a smooth, creamy sauce. If needed, add a little more pasta cooking water to make the sauce more fluid.
6. Serve the cacio e pepe spaghetti hot, garnished with a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper and a dusting of Pecorino Romano cheese.
There you go! Now you can enjoy authentic spaghetti cacio e pepe just like you would find in Rome. Enjoy your meal!

Freshly baked bread filled with sweet yellow peaches and slivers of almond in each bite. Each slice is moist and slightly sweetened, delicious as a breakfast on the go or as an afternoon snack.
I am super excited to share this recipe with you today!
With summer quickly turning into fall, kids going back to school, and peach season coming to an end, I thought that this amazingly moist and tasty Peach Almond Bread is the perfect way to say farewell to one season and welcome in the next. You must try this bread before peach season is officially over! Trust me.
Every bite of this bread is moist, slightly sweet, and contains bits of peaches and slivers of almond. Seriously? How can you say no to such a tasty combination? I even enjoyed eating the end pieces. And that’s saying a lot. I usually avoid the end pieces of bread and leave those behind (for someone else). Yes, I’m one of those people =)
While this recipe isn’t as quick to make as most of my other recipes, I promise you that it’s well worth the wait. Plus, you’ll have enough for breakfast for a few days. Isn’t that great?
Go try it! You won’t regret it!
In the mean time, I’ll be sharing these at the Novice Gardener’s Fiesta Friday=)
First, preheat the oven to 350oF. Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan with either vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray.
Slice a peach into small pieces, and set them aside for now. Reserve a few thin slices of peach for the top of the bread.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour and the baking soda.
In a separate medium bowl, beat a large egg, add in the sugar, vanilla extract, buttermilk and vegetable oil. Whisk the ingredients until they are mostly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently mix the ingredients until they are just incorporated. You don’t want to overmix the batter. It will make the bread less soft.
Add the bits of peaches and slivers of almond, and gently fold them in.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan. Top the loaf with thinly sliced peaches.
Place the pan into the oven and bake for about 40 minutues. After 40 minutes, remove the bread from the oven and cover with foil to prevent the top of the bread from becoming too brown and dry.
Bake for an additional 10 minutes. Then check to see if the bread is done by inserting a toothpick into the bread. If it comes out clean, it is done. If the batter clings to the toothpick, bake for a little longer. Continue to keep a close watch on the bread. My loaf was done in exactly an hour, but each oven bakes differently so the times will be different.
Once the bread is done, set it aside to allow it to cool for several minutes before slicing into the bread.
Serve the bread slices warm or cold. |

An Empirical Comparison of Field Defect Modeling Methods
Abstractplanning, software insurance In this study, we report empirical results from forecasting field defect rates and predicting the number of field defects for a large commercial software system. We find that we are not able to accurately forecast field defect rates using a combined time-based and metrics-based approach, as judged by the Theil forecasting statistic. We suggest possible conditions that may have contributed to the poor results. Next, we use metrics-based approaches to predict the number of field defects within the six months after deployment. We find that the simple ratios method produce more accurate predictions than more complex metrics-based methods. Our results are steps toward quantitatively managing the risks associated with software field defects. |

It's time to start NOW!
OK, so there wasn't a mid-term wave, red or blue. The GOP is bravely claiming victory with a modest gain in the House and the balance of the Senate still awaiting resolution. The key take away as I see it are the clues suggesting a strategy for the Democrats moving forward. And, if it were to be effective, implementation would need to begin now.
I find direction in John Fetterman's victory in Pennsylvania and the strong performance by Tim Ryan in Ohio. The characteristics worth noting are the profession of love as the animating force in both campaigns and the context of strength used to claim it. Both candidates are younger, a very important point that dems overlook at their peril, and both delivered their message with an unequivocating, no bullshit attitude that speaks to the real division in the electorate: the wedge created by power and money.
Their campaigns put concern for each other front and center. This marks an absolute break with the GOP's worship of whiteness, moral certainty and love of power. Fetterman in particular rejects the accepted trappings of power and success, both in appearance and the way he doesn't hesitate to put his finger in the eye of sanctimonius MAGA positions. He calls out stupidity by its simple name and counters it with direct, fact-based truth. He calls a liar a liar and rejects a liar's legitimacy out of hand. He is self-effacing at the same time he refuses to cave to criticism. He trades on the power of love and not any suggestion that it is a sign of weakness.
The problem for the party over the next two years is finding candidates like Fetterman and Ryan. They are not currently involved in the backroom machinations that perpetuate the mess we have today. And that's where the grassroots effort needs to step up. We need to identify candidates with a chance to win in the current climate rather than wasting effort trying to change the climate first.
If you are active and engaged, go through your list of outliers who make sense to you but don't seem to play by the rules of the party establishment. Encourage them and others to take them seriously and give them support. Oh, and while you're at it, get that small, new Democratic Party to focus on grassroots organizing in a way that resembles the old Tea Party. Don't wait until election year to gather and promote platform ideas. Do it monthly. Do it loudly. And do it courageously. Be proud to be good. Be proud to be thoughful and loving and accepting. Be proud to be honest.
If, as so many on the right like to say, this is a war between good and evil, put the white hat on and stand tall! |
nterested In Costa Rica or Conventional Encounter Masks?
A brief information of an Historical Conventional Costa Rica Mask, amazingly loaded with historical "previousness" and traditional joy! Tales are approved on from time to time about various peoples and artistry, the ancients did a lot of artwork and chiselling, although nowadays it may seem boring and easy, these chiselling and artworks are complete of decades of importance and custom.
What is this particular Traditional Mask about about?
The conceal/mask is unique from Costa Rica and was side designed by the people and probably took several days to finish. The conceal has been around for several decades and to this day has the trademark of its designers. Tradition in Costa Rica is very essential and can be sensed just by basically viewing the place for a week. I myself was in Costa Rica a few several weeks returning recently, just casually traveing the country. It was awesome to see how much custom and pleasure was in the individuals there, just by the looks on their countenance and their heated happiness. Faces can tell us a lot about a person, the way they look bares their historical "previousness" (past), the tests they've been through and sometimes their inner most passions. They say eyes are the screen to the center of a person and by basically learning the eyes, individuals can tell much about you. In Costa Rica the faces inform everything. So what does this Fask Cover up symbolise and mean? does it have any mysterious credibility?
I am researcher and so I am a very eager companion of scepticism, it means I don't just believe ideas because someone else informed me. Neither should you! but my information about the traditional facemask is that you can somehow look at it all day and be won by its love, it experience like looking deeply into the ancients of costa rica, their tests and center discomfort all provided to you in one look. On the other hand this causes you to pay attention to yourself, look at your lifestyle with more quality and route. These covers as you can probably think have been bough and marketed. I don't know of any eventually left and I don't know of where you can buy any genuine Conventional Costa Rica Encounter Masks of the zodiak like this one. I basically don't! But if you want culture, house design from costa rica or facemasks with deep importance and signifance then I suggest you rush up. I have determined to privately publish my only mask on an auction web sites to one fortunate person. I believe whoever gets it first was meant for it and would advantage most from it!

As the unmistakable twang of a country music tune fills the air, it’s impossible not to be drawn in by its distinct sound. One crucial component in creating this sound is the use of semi-hollow electric guitars. These unique instruments play a vital role in the country music genre, adding a warmth and depth to the music that is instantly recognizable. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at what makes semi-hollow electric guitars stand out from other electric guitars, their history, the characteristics of the country music sound that they are so important to, and some of the famous players who have used them to great effect. Let’s dive in and explore the fascinating role of semi-hollow electric guitars in creating the country music sound.
What are Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars?
If you’re a fan of country music, you’ve probably noticed the unmistakable sound of semi-hollow electric guitars. These instruments have been a staple in the country music genre for decades, delivering a warm, twangy sound that’s perfect for complementing the rich vocals and storytelling that are at the heart of country music. But what exactly are semi-hollow electric guitars, and how do they differ from other electric guitars? In this section of the article, we’ll delve into the history and unique features of these instruments, providing a deeper understanding of their role in creating the country music sound. To learn more about the connection between semi-hollow electric guitars and country music, check out our semi-hollow electric guitars and country music page.
A Brief History of Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars
Semi-hollow electric guitars have a rich history that dates back to the 1930s. The first electric guitars were made entirely of solid wood, which gave them a bright and loud tone but also made them prone to feedback at high volumes. To combat this issue, guitar makers started experimenting with designs that included a “hollow” area within the body of the guitar. This hollow space helped to reduce feedback, while still allowing the guitar to produce a strong and dynamic sound.
One of the first semi-hollow electric guitars was the Gibson ES-150, which was introduced in 1936. This guitar featured a solid maple top and back, with a hollow space in the middle. It also included a single-coil pickup and an adjustable trapeze tailpiece, which helped to further enhance its sound. The ES-150 quickly gained popularity among jazz musicians, who appreciated its warm tone and ability to stay in tune.
Over the years, other guitar makers began to follow Gibson’s lead and produce their own semi-hollow electric guitars. The most famous of these is arguably the ES-335, which Gibson introduced in 1958. This guitar featured a laminated maple body, a mahogany neck, and two humbucking pickups. The ES-335 quickly became one of the most popular guitars of its time, and its distinctive sound can be heard on countless rock and blues recordings from the 1960s and beyond.
Today, there are many different types of semi-hollow electric guitars on the market. Some, like the ES-335, have a “thinline” design that includes a solid block of wood down the center of the body. Others, like the Gretsch Country Gentleman, have a “full hollow” body that is entirely open inside. Some semi-hollow guitars are designed for rock or blues, while others are specifically intended for jazz or other styles of music.
Regardless of the specific design, all semi-hollow electric guitars share a few key characteristics that make them distinct from solid-body guitars. They tend to have a warmer, more organic tone than solid-body guitars, with plenty of sustain and a natural compression that makes them ideal for rhythm playing. They also tend to be more dynamically responsive to a player’s touch, allowing for greater expression and nuance in one’s playing.

How Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars differ from other Electric Guitars
Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars are unique in construction compared to other electric guitars. The main difference lies in its unique design, which has a hollow body with a solid center block running through its middle. The center block helps to reduce feedback and provides a more solid tone compared to fully hollow guitars.
Solid Electric Guitars, as the name implies, have a solid body made from a single piece of wood. These types of guitars are popular in rock and metal music due to their ability to withstand high gain settings without generating feedback issues. Solid electric guitars have a more focused and aggressive tone, making them suitable for genres that require cutting and articulate sounds.
On the other hand, fully Hollow Electric Guitars have a completely hollow body, which gives them a distinct sound. Fully hollow guitars are popular in jazz and blues music due to their warm and rich tone. However, they are susceptible to feedback, which limits their versatility, especially in high volume settings.
Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars offer the best of both worlds. The combination of a hollow body and a center block provides a rich and warm tone, while the center block helps to eliminate unwanted feedback. Additionally, semi-hollow guitars are lightweight and comfortable to play, making them a suitable choice for long gigs.
Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars offer a sweet spot between solid and hollow electric guitars. They offer a warmer and more versatile sound compared to solid electric guitars while reducing feedback issues.

The Characteristics of the Country Music Sound
Country music is a genre that has uniquely identifiable characteristics due to the use of certain instruments, including semi-hollow electric guitars. These instruments contribute greatly to the country music sound, which is often characterized by its twangy, melodic lines and use of simple chord progressions.

Another characteristic of country music is the use of storytelling in the lyrics. Country songs often tell a story or convey a particular sentiment, often with a relatable emotional core. The melody and instrumentation of the song are used to enhance the story and evoke an emotional response from the listener.
The rhythm of country music is usually simple and straightforward, with a strong emphasis on the downbeat. This gives the songs a sense of drive and momentum, encouraging listeners to tap their feet and dance along. Semi-hollow electric guitars, with their rich, warm tone and ability to sustain notes, are perfectly suited for this style of playing.
In contrast to other genres like rock or blues, country music often relies less on complex solos or extended improvisation, and instead focuses more on creating a memorable melody. The lyrics and vocal performance are more important than flashy instrumental displays.

One of White’s signature techniques was using a B-string bender, which allowed him to simulate the sound of a pedal steel guitar on his electric guitar. This technique can be heard on many of The Byrds’ recordings, as well as on his solo work and collaborations with other artists.
White’s playing style was characterized by his delicate touch and precise fingerpicking, as well as his ability to seamlessly blend bluegrass and country elements into his rock and roll playing. He was a master of both acoustic and electric guitar, and his use of the semi-hollow electric guitar helped him achieve a warm, rich tone that was perfect for the country and bluegrass music he loved.
Sadly, White’s life was cut short when he was tragically hit by a car and killed in 1973 at the age of 29. However, his legacy as a pioneering country and bluegrass guitarist lives on, and his influence can be heard in the playing of countless guitarists who have followed in his footsteps.

After opening seats up due to demand at all three of the first nights of the BlackOut Tour’s North American leg, Brantley Gilbert is gearing up for a big spring. But for all the intensity these 27 arena shows, the Jefferson, Georgian is ready to announce his Take It Outside amphitheater tour. Kicking off June 2 at Mansfield, MA’s XFinity Center, the 22-date and counting throwdown will run into October.
“We’re just getting started bringing the music to the people,” says the one of only four back-to-back platinum country album sellers. “We hit that stage in Saginaw, and the crowd was lit up. Makes you wanna hit the road, and stay out there – when the people are so raging. We knew when we did this arena tour, we were gonna wanna take it outside! We don’t have all the dates in place, but I want the fans in these markets to know I’m coming,”
Joining Gilbert for his Take It Outside Tour are label-mate Justin Moore and “Dirt Road Anthem” co-writer Colt Ford. Given that all three have toured with each other over the years, it should make for a night of hardcore outsider country – from Gilbert’s harder rock to Moore’s serious beer joint country and Ford’s rap-forward style.
“We’ve all done so many things together,” Gilbert explains with a laugh. “This is one of those tour’s that’ll be crazy before it even rolls. Justin likes to really push the limits, and he’s a pretty serious performer… and Colt is one of those guys who gets how to hit a crowd right between the eyes. If you love your country on the rougher side, this is gonna be a show for you.”
Gilbert, who takes writing the songs of his life as seriously he does the fans who feel like they live inside those songs, lives to bring the music to the people. With two nights at Colorado’s iconic Red Rocks, the Bay area’s Shoreline Amphitheater and a kick-off at Boston’s Xfinity Center, the man who won the 2015 American Music Awards’ Favorite Country Album for Just As I Am is matching the BlackOut Tour with an equally comprehensive collection of outdoors dates.

Gay Munich Travel Guide
Gay Munich Travel Guide: Beer, bratwursts, traditional costumes, and sporting ambitions – the Bavarian capital Munich as the third-largest German city has many characteristics for which Germany is famous. Even if the German state of Bavaria is one of the politically more conservative federal states, Munich has become a well-known and popular place to live for the LGBTQ + community, and not just. The gay movement began to secure a permanent place in Munich as early as the 1950s, which of course was a very positive and progressive development not only for gay men but also for the entire LGBTQ+ community. In the past few years, the Bavarian capital has secured the reputation of being one of the most liveable cities in the whole world, not only because of its exceptionally low crime rate.
But without its breweries and beer halls, such as the Hofbräuhaus, which opened in 1589, the annual major events such as the Oktoberfest, or a traditional white sausage, Munich would not be Munich after all. The cityscape of the administratively independent southern German city is also characterized by centuries-old buildings such as the Marienkirche, the neo-Gothic New Town Hall, or Nymphenburg Palace, as well as numerous world-famous museums. And of course, there is a lively LGBTQ+ community in Munich, which organizes one of the biggest CSD and Pride events in Germany every year. Everything you need to know for a Munich gay city trip to the Bavarian capital can be found in this Munich travel guide for a couple of men traveling!
City Trip to Munich – When to go?
Germany, in general, is a travel destination that is worth visiting in both summer and winter. The same applies, of course, to Munich, which, with its location in the southern part of Bavaria, has both hot summer days and cold winter weeks to offer. Our first trip took us to the Bavarian capital in late summer, where, thanks to numerous parks and green spaces, we could find sufficient opportunities for refreshment in between, despite the heat. In autumn, more precisely in October, Munich invites the world to the largest beer and autumn festival. Winter is characterized by cold periods with snow and frost. The city then transforms into a true winter wonderland with the Pink Christmas Market for gays and the LGBTQ+ community as well as the largest Christmas market, the ‘Munich Christkindlmarkt‘.
Not far from Munich, LGBTQ+ travelers in Munich can spend the entire winter in the snow, for example in the ski areas Berchtesgadener Land or around the Zugspitze, the highest mountain in Germany. In spring, with the first rays of sunshine, Munich turns into a popular travel destination for lesbian, gay, and queer travelers. But what to do when it rains in the Bavarian capital? Don’t you worry! There are numerous museums and historical buildings that are definitely worth a visit. We are looking forward to our next visit, maybe to the CSD Munich Pride, or for a visit to the pink Christmas market?

How LGBTQ+ and gay-friendly is Munich?
Conservative or not, you can consider Munich to an LGBTQ-friendly German city. Gay-friendly tendencies go back to the 1950s, and thus to a time when same-sex behavior was still punishable by law. One of the most famous figureheads of gay life in Munich was Freddie Mercury, co-founder, composer, and lead singer of the band Queen, who lived in Munich’s Glockenbackviertel for about six years. At that time, creative LGBTQ+ life starts to flourish in Munich. The community established various bars, clubs, and parties in the city, especially in gayborhood Glockenbachviertel.
Probably the best-known gay and queer establishment in Munich, the bar, restaurant, hotel, and gay sauna named ‘Deutsche Eiche’, became increasingly important in the early 1970s. Munich today is still one of the LGBTQ+ and gay-friendliest cities in Germany, not only thanks to its numerous locations but also through social projects that support the young queer generation. The exciting history of the LGBTQ+ community in the state capital is constantly being written, including the AIDS Monument, the art installation in a former cruising hot spot on Hofplatz, and the annual CSD Munich Pride.
Gay CSD Munich Pride
As early as 1980, just 11 years after the Stonewall uprisings in New York, the first CSD took place in the Bavarian capital, at that time under the name Politparade “Stonewall-Demo”. 150 brave gay men and 30 lesbian women came to this first Pride event. Only 10 years later, in 1990, the CSD Munich already had several hundred participants. A trend that should continue. As one of the largest LGBTQ + events in Germany, the CSD Munich Pride has established itself as an integral part of the annual CSD calendar with more than 150,000 participants (as of 2019).
Gay-friendly Hotels in Munich
LGBTQ + travelers can choose from numerous accommodations, hotels, hostels, and bed & breakfasts in Munich. As one of the largest and most gay-friendly cities in Germany, there is something for every taste. In our gay Munich travel guide, we can particularly recommend two hotels: The Aloft Munich, a Marriott-run hotel near Munich Central Station, and the Deutsche Eiche, which has also made a name for itself as a hotel in Germany’s most expensive trendy district. We are already looking forward to our next visit, maybe we will try another LGBTQ + friendly hotel in the Bavarian capital.
Gay-friendly Activities & things to do in Munich
The range of activities in Munich could hardly be more diverse. Exactly the right travel destination for us gay adventurers.

And yet there are also sights and activities in Munich that locals don’t immediately have on their to-do list.

Or, for those who are active on the move, how about a bike tour to Nymphenburg Palace in the west of the city and a walk through its wide park? Munich also has a lot to offer for (sporty) adrenaline junkies. A walk to the roof of the Olympic Stadium followed by a zip-line flight over the stadium, for example. And what do we have to say about it? Simply Munich!

30% off Clinique Happy fragrance and sets. Shop Now @ Belk! T&C’s apply
Belk, a prominent online retail giant, has established itself as a go-to destination for fashion enthusiasts and shoppers alike. However, beneath the glossy exterior of its user-friendly website and diverse product offerings lie some significant drawbacks that consumers should be aware of. In this article, we will delve into the less favorable aspects of the Belk shopping experience.
- Customer Service Woes: One of the recurrent issues faced by Belk customers is subpar customer service. Numerous complaints have surfaced regarding delayed response times, unhelpful representatives, and a lack of resolution for customer concerns. This deficiency in customer service can lead to frustration and dissatisfaction among shoppers who seek prompt and effective assistance.
- Shipping Nightmares: Belk’s shipping practices have also come under scrutiny. Customers often report extended delivery times, with some experiencing delays far beyond the promised delivery dates. Late shipments can inconvenience buyers, particularly those who expect their purchases within a specific timeframe. Additionally, the lack of transparent communication about shipping delays compounds the problem.
- Return and Refund Challenges: The return and refund process at Belk has proven to be a source of frustration for dissatisfied customers. Some have complained about cumbersome return procedures, hidden fees, and difficulties in obtaining timely refunds. This can deter potential customers who prioritize a hassle-free return policy when choosing where to shop.
- Quality Control Issues: While Belk offers a wide range of products, some customers have raised concerns about the quality of certain items. Reports of inferior materials, inaccurate product descriptions, and discrepancies between online images and received items have circulated. Such discrepancies erode trust and can result in disappointment for consumers expecting the quality they paid for.
- Limited International Presence: For global consumers seeking access to Belk’s offerings, the company’s limited international presence can be a major drawback. The absence of international shipping options or regional availability can alienate potential customers who reside outside the United States.
While Belk has built a reputation as a popular online retail destination, it’s crucial for consumers to be aware of its shortcomings. From customer service challenges to shipping issues and concerns about product quality, the downsides of shopping at Belk should be carefully considered. Before making a purchase, prospective buyers should weigh these drawbacks against the advantages to determine if Belk aligns with their expectations and preferences. |

For my card I used the Silhouette Treetop Collection #1. When you open up the zip file you will find dozens of images that can be combined to make your project.
Using the free program GIMP, I arranged the fairy on the tree branch and then added the circle to frame the scene. It was missing something so I added the stars for the fairy to be gazing up at. I used my Spellbinders Large Circle to cut out the image. Then I added Adirondack Stonehenge Blue to simulate the evening sky. I figured the fairy wouldn't be able to see those stars unless it was evening. With my main image set I then proceeded to layer it up on the Bazzill card stock.

Check out these 9 important roofing tips you must know in getting a better and secured home
Roofs are the most neglected yet one of the critical components of a home, and you as the homeowner should always be ahead in making sure your family is secured and safe in unforeseeable events such as the latest hail and windstorm.
While most roofing systems have a lifespan of up to 20 to 25 years, regular inspections of at least twice a year are still recommended to make sure your family is well protected.
At Crazy Horse Roofing, we help you have a regular roofing inspection to help you have a comfortable and secured home for your family.
Roofing Tip #1. Get a Roof Assessment Before Buying a Home

Roofing Tip #2. Check and Trim Back Trees
Trees give a fresh approach to a house. It can be a landmark for some, especially for decade age ones. However, some trees have leaning and overhanging branches that scratch and scrape your roof, causing big damages to your shingles. If you see a tree that is nearing your roof, maybe it’s the right time for a little trimming on its branches.
Roofing Tip #3. Avoid Clogging Your Gutter System
You can avoid clogging your gutter system by cleaning the leaves and other debris that blocks and caused water build-up on your attic, living spaces, or even behind the covering boards.
To have a free-flowing drainage system, cleaning and getting a roof inspection at least twice a year is recommended.
Only trust and get recommendations from the roofing experts!

I made serious progress on my gingham quilt this week! I debated rushing through the hand binding just so I could have a finish for today, but then the voice of good reason showed up. (Hurray for that! hahaha!) I decided to slow down and enjoy the process instead. I'm currently 1/4 of the way done stitching the binding to the back. I look forward to snuggling up with it as I finish it this weekend. I love hand binding!
(As an aside....I dream of having a stack of 20 quilts sitting in a pile, just waiting to be hand bound, especially as we head into winter. I don't think that will ever happen, as I can't wait to finish quilts! But, doesn't it sound like a nice winter activity to sit down after dinner and have some binding to do every night?? I don't think that would ever get old!)
Anyway.....I do have a small finished project to share with you today!
That's it for me today! Do you have a finish to share? If so, please link up. Thank you, as always, for joining me for finish it up Friday! Thanks for stopping by and for reading. I appreciate it so much! Have a great weekend! |

6 Common Myths About
Purchasing credit boostline is a common and effective way to improve your creditworthiness and boost your credit score. When you buy a boostline (also commonly referred to as a credit tradeline), you are added as an authorized user on another person’s account. In doing so, the positive credit history from that account will reflect on your credit report, offering an increase in your credit rating.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation out there about what boostlines are and how they work. Below, we’ll dig into some of the most common myths surrounding credit boostlines and set the record straight so you can make an educated decision about whether a boostline is right for you.
Boostlines Are illegal
Purchasing a credit boostline is completely legal. It is very common for individuals to add authorized users to their accounts to help them boost their credit scores or begin establishing a credit history. In fact, many parents do this to help their kids start building credit.
Of course, it is essential to buy a boostline from a reliable source like CreditBull Inc.
For those who don’t have friends or family members who are willing or able to add them as authorized users, buying a credit boostline is an excellent workaround. Having a solid credit score opens many doors for you, from qualifying for credit products to securing apartment rentals and more, and boostlines can help you build yours.
You Can Fully Repair Your Credit Using Boostlines
Boostlines are not a substitution for repairing your credit. Boostlines allow you to piggyback on the positive information from another person’s credit report, but they do not remove any negative information that may exist on your account.
If you have accounts that are in default or delinquent, a boostline probably won’t provide much of an increase in your score. You should take steps to begin repairing any delinquent accounts before you consider purchasing boostlines.
Once you’ve consolidated debt resolved charged-off accounts, a boostline might help you increase your score as you begin rebuilding your credit. It could even help you save money by positioning you favorably in the eyes of lenders and enabling you to negotiate lower interest rates.
Boostlines Are Extremely expensive
Don’t mistakenly assume that credit boostlines are very expensive because options are likely available that fit your budget. If you think a boostline could be effective for increasing your credit rating, make sure you shop around.
The price of a boostline varies depending on the age and the credit limit of the account in question. A newer, low-limit account might cost only a couple hundred dollars, while an established, high-limit account could cost over $1000.
CreditBull offers boostline packages, because we believe that bundling multiple boostlines is a better way to potentially boost credit scores.
Boostlines Are Guaranteed To Improve Your Credit
There is no guarantee that a boostline will increase your credit rating. The likelihood that a boostline will work depends on your unique credit situation and the boostline you purchase. Before you begin shopping for a boostline, make sure you understand all the components that determine your credit score.
Then, review your credit report and determine which areas could use bolstering. This will enable you to be strategic about which boostline you purchase.
If you have a very minimal credit history, it will probably be most impactful to invest in a credit boostline that is a few years old. Similarly, if your credit utilization ratio is unfavorable, purchasing a high-limit boostline could be a quick way to bring it back within a more optimal range. Typically, it’s recommended never to use more than 30% of your available credit. Could a boostline put you back in that range?
For more detail on who boostlines are best for, check out our guide to what to know before becoming an authorized user.
Credit Boostlines Are Considered Unethical
Credit boostlines are not unethical. They are just one of several techniques you may use to improve your credit score. Just as you might open a new credit account to improve your credit mix, pay down your account balance to lower your credit utilization rate, or work with a credit repair specialist to remove negative information from your credit report. Once again, it is very common for individuals to add authorized users to their credit accounts, which is all a boostline is.
The same sentiment applies to selling boostlines: it is entirely ethical to sell boostlines. Some folks don’t have the good fortune of having friends or family members who can help them build credit. Selling a credit boostline is a helpful service you can offer to others to aid in their journey to build credit.
Purchasing A Boostline Will Enable You To Use Someone Else’s Credit
A boostline does not give you the ability to use someone else’s credit card. When you purchase a boostline, you are added as an authorized user on an account. This means the account will appear on your credit report, but you will not otherwise have access to the account or the card associated with it.
With this in mind, it’s essential to be selective about the credit boostline you purchase. Because the activity on the account reflects on your credit report, you need to ensure the history of the account is positive. An account with a history of missed payments or a high credit utilization rate could reflect poorly on your credit score. Since you can’t control these factors, you must do your research before purchasing. This is where CreditBull comes in to make sure you get the right accounts that can affect your credit score positively

Your Credit Today!
The Bottom Line
Credit boostlines are a strategic and effective way of improving your credit rating within a relatively short time. There is nothing illegal or unethical about using tradelines to improve your score. However, you should be aware that boostlines are no substitute for repairing your credit. If you have accounts in collections, boostlines may not be effective until you’ve settled those accounts and are on the path to rebuilding credit.

A video circulating on social media depicts a North Carolina police officer repeatedly striking a Black woman during an arrest, while several other officers hold her down. The incident occurred when Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police officers approached a man and woman who were smoking marijuana at a bus stop on Monday. As the officers began to arrest the man, the woman interfered, leading to a struggle. According to police, the woman hit an officer multiple times. In response, an officer struck the woman several times to gain compliance, targeting specific areas as part of his training.
The video shows four officers kneeling and restraining the woman as a fifth officer repeatedly strikes her with a closed fist. Bystanders can be heard shouting at the officers to stop. After a few seconds, the officers stand up and lead the woman to a squad SUV with her arms behind her back.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Johnny Jennings acknowledged the public outrage surrounding the incident, stating that he understands the emotions evoked by the video. He emphasized the need for the internal investigation to proceed and mentioned the possibility of other agencies conducting their own probes.
The officer involved in the incident, identified as Vincent Pistone, has been temporarily reassigned from the patrol division to investigations. The department’s internal affairs bureau is currently investigating the matter. The woman, a 24-year-old Black resident of Charlotte, has been charged with assault on a government official, resisting officers, and marijuana possession.
The Bojangles restaurant chain confirmed that the man and woman involved in the incident were employees at a nearby location. The company expressed shock and sadness over the video and pledged full cooperation with any investigation.
Chief Jennings acknowledged that the optics of the incident were unfavorable and stated that it should not have happened. He questioned whether the officers should have initiated arrests for marijuana use and whether the woman should have interfered with the man’s arrest and struck officers.
The release of body camera footage is pending, as North Carolina law requires a court order for its public release. The department has petitioned the court to allow the release of the footage. |
“Ruptured Envelopes, Double Shells” explores the presence and meaning of skin in art of the early twenty-first-century. Millennial art has engaged skin through an intriguing selection of media, from animal hides to latex and silicon. The installations discussed in this paper experiment with biological and artificial skins, transformed into fetishized shells and brought to bear on contemporary sociocultural anxieties. The paper draws on Didier Anzieu’s Skin-Ego theory as a useful analytical framework, allowing discussion of both psychological and sociocultural aspects of skin. Works by Ana Álvarez-Errecalde, Nandipha Mntambo, Jessica Harrison, Wu Tien-chang, Michel Platnic, Pamela Rosenkranz, and Penny Siopis are discussed under the categories of “double shells,” “skin fetishes,” and “de-structured skins.” Analysis proceeds along two critical paths. Thus, a historically-specific political perspective is coupled with a phenomenological reflection on skin’s appeal to the haptic sensibility of our bodily borders. Investigating the turbulence of global mobility through the trope of skin, the paper reflects on subjects’ sense of “skinlessness” in an age when Otherness is ubiquitous, whether it is political, geographic, ethnic, or racially specific. At the same time, the growing phenomenological discourse on embodied aesthetics invites reflection upon sensory aspects of skin-based art, in relation to the lived experience of bodily envelopes. Assuming a synergy between these complementary critical paths, the paper offers close analysis of seven artists’ skin-related installations and videos, with particular attention to how skin comes to matter in an age of global turbulence.

|My braid out results using conditioner and coconut oil
I recently picked up one of my favorite hair products, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. I probably haven’t had any on hand in a little over a year. This went from being my staple to being something that was just okay. Somehow I stopped wanting to buy multiple bottles of oils and decided my Grapeseed and Castor oils were all I needed. Lately though I started to consider the fact that something seemed very different about my hair. This made me think back to some of the things I did or used at the start of my journey. That’s when I realized that it had been ages since I used coconut oil on my hair.
Coconut oil can have many benefits for the hair. The one that I was most concerned about was the oil’s ability to moisturize the hair. This is because it’s made up of tiny molecules that are small enough to penetrate through the cuticle layer. I picked some up at my local natural grocery store, Sprouts, without another thought. It wasn’t until I got home that I realized that, in the past, I tried to stay away from coconut oil during the colder months. Why? Well, it was because of the fact that the oil had a tendency to solidify at lower temperatures which could lead to hard hair. This happened to me the first week I started using it again. I tried it as a sealant after spritzing my hair with leave-in conditioner diluted with plain water. I did this for a few days in a row before braiding my hair up into two french braids. When I took my hair down on wash day I noticed that weird, hard feeling. My ends felt like straw.
After that I figured maybe I would just use it for deep conditioning or hot oil treatments. Until one night when I decided to use it with my Aussie Moist conditioner for a braid out. I applied the conditioner to my freshly washed and conditioned hair and then sealed with the coconut oil. I then took medium sized sections and spritzed with water before smoothing the hair with my denman brush and braided it into plaits. Let me tell you, my hair was so soft and defined even I couldn’t believe the results! Just two products and I ended up with a braid out that was photoshoot worthy. That’s when I realized that the coconut oil worked for me as long as I used it on wet hair without too much product buildup. Now my hair is back in love with my old bestie and I plan on keeping up with it during the rest of my No Heat Challenge. Hopefully this will give me an extra moisture boost during these harsh winter months. |
I am not a theologian, but I occasionally read theology. Moreover, I always have a few students each year who major in history but pursue graduate work in theology. I thus found R.R. Reno’s post on today’s First Things blog to be very interesting and informative.
From Reno’s perspective, the theology programs at Duke and Notre Dame stand high above the rest. Reno also praises the programs at Princeton and Princeton Theological Seminary, Wycliffe College at the University of Toronto, Catholic University, SMU-Perkins, University of Dayton, and Baylor. His evaluations are based on the program’s commitment to Christian orthodoxy and the teaching of theology (and not religious studies). As a result, places such as Virginia, Yale, Harvard, and Chicago do not make his list of top programs. Catholic programs at St. Louis, Boston College, and Fordham fall short in Reno’s estimation because they have “drifted from the excitement of the post-Vatican II era to the banality of contextual theology.”
I am curious to hear what my more theologically informed readers think about Reno’s ratings. |

Hungary will create an anti-corruption authority and a working group involving non-government organisations to oversee the spending of European Union funds, the government said in a decree in its official gazette late on Monday.
The move by Budapest is aimed at unlocking EU funds as nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s government is locked in battles with Brussels over corruption, migration, LGBTQ rights and democratic standards.
The European Commission has been withholding its approval for Hungary to draw on money meant to help lift economies from the Covid-19 pandemic, accusing Orban’s government of undermining the rule of law.
Hungary also faces financial penalties from the European Union over the same rule of law issues, including public tender procedures that fall short on anti-corruption safeguards.
The government will introduce a bill in parliament creating an independent anti-corruption authority by September 30 and expects it to be set up by November 21.
The new body will step in if Hungarian authorities do not take sufficient steps to “prevent, investigate and fix cases of fraud, conflict of interest, corruption or other crimes and abuses” as European Union funds are spent, the decree said.
The government will also create an anti-corruption working group to advise the authority. Half the members of the group will be government delegates and the others will be representatives of non-governmental organisations.
Orban’s government has come under increased pressure in recent months to strike a deal with Brussels as the forint currency hit new lows and inflation keeps surging.
PM Orban’s chief of staff said last month that Hungary will amend by the end of October several laws criticised by the European Commission if an agreement on financial aid is reached with the EU executive.
Gergely Gulyas also said Hungary would create a “stricter than ever” and most transparent system for overseeing the use of EU funds and procurement contracts. |
On 3 February, CSC also revealed its post-merger line-up of directors, with HPE president and CEO, Meg Whitman, set to take a place on the board, along with former chief operating officer of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, Manoj Singh, former senior vice president and CFO at Sungard Data Systems, Robert Woods, and Lawrie.
While the appointments of Whitman and Lawrie to the board were foreshadowed when the merger was first announced, the remaining board appointments were to be split equally between nominees of HPE and existing members of CSC’s board.
The proposed merger, valued at around $US8.5 billion, was announced on 24 May 2016, and saw HPE spin off its Enterprise Services business to free it up to join forces with CSC.
Billed as a “pure-play, global IT services powerhouse,” the deal brings together over 5,000 customers across 70 countries, with a combined $US26 billion in annual revenue.
At the time, HPE said the spin-off and merger was the “logical next step” in the turnaround of its Enterprise Services segment, allowing the standalone business to “sharpen its leadership” in building end-to-end infrastructure solutions across enterprise.
"The 'spin-merger' of HPE's Enterprise Services unit with CSC is the right next step for HPE and our customers," Hewlett Packard Enterprise CEO, Meg Whitman, said at the time.
"Enterprise Services' customers will benefit from a stronger, more versatile services business, better able to innovate and adapt to an ever-changing technology landscape," she said.
In an investors’ briefing on 2 February, Lawrie told CSC shareholders that the merger between CSC and Enterprise Services business of HPE was on track to close on or about 1 April 1, of this year.
“We have made substantial progress over the past several months, which includes completing all of our regulatory clearances required to close the merger,” he said, according to a transcript of the investors’ call on Seeking Alpha. “We continued our operational prep process via regular integration summits with HPES.”
“Over the past several months, we have taken additional important steps as we progress towards the merger close.
"We secured and are now complete with all the regulatory clearances that are a necessary condition to closing the merger.
“We continue to hold regular premerger integration summits to bring together the leaders of both organisations.
"Our focus has been on developing our operating model, building a one company culture, creating an optimal go-to-market strategy, and preparing detailed plans for synergies and value capture,” he said. |
Courtesy of Dan Kutler from San Francisco Bay.
“One morning, I went down to the docks at the South End Rowing Club in San Francisco to shoot a portrait of my friend,” explains 1996 Olympic swimmer Dan Kutler. “When we were done, I started taking pictures of the other swimmers. When I looked at them later, I realized I had something special.
I am not an open water swimmer. And if I do get into it someday, I promise that you will not find me anywhere close to waters as cold as the San Francisco Bay.
Quite simply, I’ve become curious about this unusual, passionate life-loving breed of open water swimmers who brave the cold, open waters day after day.
I think this curiosity, this distance between me and them adds to the shot. Aesthetically, the simple subject against the vast background appeals to my clean, minimalist sensibility as a photographer.”
Kutler is shooting a global campaign of open water swimmers around the world that will ultimately become a large hardcover photo book showcasing these hardened and hardy individuals.

From “Solidago (Asteraceae)” in Garden Flora: The Natural and Cultural History of the Plants In Your Garden by Noel Kingsbury:
“There are around 150 species of goldenrods, nearly all North American, with a few in South America down to the Southern Cone, and a handful in Eurasia….
“Goldenrods were an essential part of the early-20th-century herbaceous border; a number of hybrids were raised and widely disseminated. By the end of the century, however, the plants had a bad reputation, in Britain at any rate; anything that gets to be seen on railway embankments or badly maintained pony paddocks will soon lose its popularity for the garden. In the United States interest in growing goldenrods was at a peak in the 1920s, as part of a fashion for growing native plants, and during the 1970s interest in them grew again, as part of the revival of interest in natives and habitat restoration….
“In nature they are plants of woodland edge, marshland, and transitional grassland habitats…. All are noted as exceptionally good nectar sources for honeybees and butterflies….”
This is the second of two posts featuring goldenrod and coneflower blooms, shot at higher magnification than those in the previous post (see Autumn Mix: Goldenrod, Coneflower, and Anemone (1 of 2)), along with some new photos of anemone.

I am a little bit of a nerd um I think in my earlier years I was certainly an introvert however I would need to say of him quite an extrovert now however I’m likewise quite independent as well um I am rather strong-willed that makes it a bit hard for hubby often but I I do like the markets and I do love finding out also so I’m a bit of a reader I like numbers and I think I’m a little bit of a late bloomer too I think yeah yeah and to the point that you’ve pointed out that you’re an introvert and how I think I was an introverted shy yeah obviously you’re you’re now an extrovert but how did you how did you transition in between that and you’re rather you’re put constantly out there putting yourself out there how did you transition in between that

The effects of water soluble CBD can be felt within 15-45 minutes of taking it, depending on the individual’s metabolism, size, and other factors. Additionally, water soluble CBD can have a longer lasting effect compared to regular CBD due to its increased bioavailability.

Water soluble CBD also has improved absorption rates, meaning it can be absorbed into your system more quickly and efficiently.

Finally, water soluble CBD is easier to dose accurately and can be added to food and drink for convenience.

Skip to content. This is to help you dose your CBD oil drop by drop to go under your tongue. Squeeze the top of the pipette to draw some CBD oil up into the dropper, lift your tongue up so that you can place drops under the tongue. Lightly squeeze it the pipette so that the oil will slowly drip out one by one and land in your mouth under the tongue. Hold the oil under the tongue for minutes, then swallow. If you want to, you can follow the oil down with any drink of your choice. The amount of drops you place under your tongue will depend on what dosage you want to take. What dosage of CBD oil should I take? Finding the right dosage for you can take some trial and error, the aim is to find a dose that works for you that is also cost effective. A common starting place is to start at a dose around 20mg. Short answer it depends. The concentration of CBD per drop or spray depends on what bottle you have bought. So, if you wanted to take a dose around 20mg, you would have to place around 10 drops under the tongue. So, if you wanted to take a dose around 20mg, you would have to place around 4 drops under the tongue. This in turn means that the product is stronger and more effective than regular CBD oils. So, if you wanted to take a dose around 5mg, you would have to place 1 spray under the tongue or in any drink of your choice. So, if you wanted to take a dose around 8mg, you would have to place 1 spray under the tongue or in any drink of your choice. CBD is taken under the tongue because it can be directly absorbed straight into the bloodstream, this happens through the mucous membrane capillaries and blood vessels in the mouth. When CBD is directly absorbed into the bloodstream it can bypass the digestive system and the liver, meaning you can receive the full effects of the CBD sooner. It gives the CBD a shorter amount of time to interact with the endocannabinoid system. The oil that you swallow will still be digested and absorbed by the body, but it will take slightly longer to activate within the body. Why not add to your smoothie?

Water-Soluble CBD tinctures may either be made using coconut oil itself, or other processes that do not need coconut oil as a carrier for the tincture. Water-Soluble CBD products are usually made using a type of nano or micro-emulsification to become water-soluble. What this means, is that the particles are made smaller than traditional CBD oils, and are therefore higher absorbing into your body, but also into liquids. To learn more about water soluble CBD click here. This is done either through pressuring the molecules over and over until they are small enough. Other brands have proprietary methods. Our methods include a bit of this, and a proprietary method that keeps our nano-emulsification natural and clean. Now, because the smaller molecules are smaller and therefore soluble in water, there are many different ways to use them. We will list them below from most effective to least. NOTE With each method, you MUST shake the bottle well before you use the drops to activate the beneficial cannabinoids in the water-soluble tincture. This is because of emulsification, and a bunch of science that is not important for this article. Up and down side to side, it does not matter too much Just know that you must shake the bottle very well before each use for it to be most effective. Time to Hold Under Tongue seconds. Now, because Water-Soluble CBD is made from smaller molecules, the time it takes for it to be absorbed by your body is much faster and better than traditional CBD oils. With traditional CBD oils, you would hold the oil under your tongue for minutes. However, with water-soluble CBD you would hold it under your tongue for seconds. That is the huge difference water-soluble makes. The position when holding your tongue for that long can be discomforting or feel fairly awkward. As well, holding it in your mouth may give weird sensations. Luckily, our drops have an amazing taste and flavoring which is unique and awesome for a CBD tincture. Unfortunately, most if not all CBD drops are not this way, and either taste bad or have an oily and hemp taste which do not mix well. Even competing water-soluble products do not taste good. At all. Some water-soluble CBD brands or product descriptions will say that you do not need to take CBD under the tongue to get the maximum effects. They will suggest that all you need to do is put it in your mouth and swallow and that will be the most effective way. There is no wait time for holding it under your tongue, or any specific directions in general. We disagree with this method, because no matter nano-sized or not, particles absorb better under the tongue. This is why many medications suggest putting the droppers under the tongue. Many studies state this, and we agree as well. |

If you have crypto collectibles, aka non-fungible tokens, in your Ethereum wallet, you can also sell them on OpenSea.
Collectibles of many popular blockchain games such as Sorare, CryptoKitties, Gods Unchained and Axie Infinity are available on OpenSea.
More importantly, as crypto collectibles are not fungible assets like Bitcoin or Ethereum, users can get an idea about the value of non-fungible assets on OpenSea.
If you are a developer, you can also create your own marketplace for ERC721 or ERC1155 assets on OpenSea.
How to buy and sell on OpenSea
To use and buy/sell crypto collectibles on OpenSea, you need a cryptocurrency wallet that you can use to interact with dapps.
If you have MetaMask installed in your browser, you can use your MetaMask wallet to access OpenSea.
MetaMask currently supports the cryptocurrency wallets below and various other less popular wallets:
If you don’t have MetaMask yet, you can install MetaMask in your browser by following the steps below.
How to install MetaMask
In order to use OpenSea, you first need to install MetaMask in your browser. There are also other wallet options, but the most popular one is MetaMask.
MetaMask is a browser extension which allows users to interact with Ethereum dapps in their browser.
Step 1: After adding the MetaMask extension to your browser, click on the ”create a wallet” button.
Step 2: Choose a strong password for your MetaMask wallet. You will use this password to log into your MetaMask wallet.
Step 3: Back up your seed phrase. You can write it down on a piece of paper or store in a USB flash drive.
Step 4: Confirm your backup phrase and you’re all set.
If you remove MetaMask from your browser, you will use your backup phrase to restore your wallet. You can log in to your wallet just by entering the password that you created in the second step.
If you don’t know exactly how to use MetaMask, you can refer to our MetaMask tutorial before using OpenSea.
Now it is time to navigate OpenSea while logged in your MetaMask wallet.
But, before that, you should fund your wallet with some Ethereum if you will buy a crypto collectible or any other rare asset.
You can also fund your wallet with some ERC20 tokens like DAI to buy particular collectibles that are listed for sale in DAI or other tokens. If you don’t have such token in your wallet, you can simply make an offer with ETH.
If you’re interested in buying and selling NFTs in different networks other than Ethereum, you can add those networks to your MetaMask wallet and then fund your wallet with cryptocurrencies of those networks.
How to buy crypto collectibles on OpenSea
After logging in to OpenSea with your cryptocurrency wallet, click on the ”browse” tab and choose a category or view all.
You can discover crypto collectibles and other rare items, and buy or make an offer for a particular item.
Some crypto collectibles are sold through an auction mechanism like the one below. If you are the highest bidder at the end of the auction, the payment will be automatically made and you’ll receive the asset.
But, if there is a higher bid in the last 10 minutes, the auction is extended by 10 minutes. So, if you really want a particular collectible, you should not just make a bid on and then forget about it.
After picking a crypto collectible, click on the ”place bid” button. Before making your first offer, you should convert your ETH to WETH.
You also need to allow OpenSea to access your WETH when a sale occurs. These transactions only require gas and will not be required again.
You can make an offer for crypto collectibles that are not even on sale, which is a very good feature for users who can’t simply set a price for their items. Besides, you can make an offer for more than one items with the same ETH.
There are also many assets that are sold for a certain price like the Diego Maradona card below. You can just pay the price and get the item.
How to sell crypto collectibles on OpenSea – Selling on OpenSea
If you have ERC721 non-fungible tokens in your wallet, you can sell them at a certain price or through auctions on OpenSea.
First log in to OpenSea with your wallet that contains ERC721 tokens and click on ”my items” on OpenSea. After that, click on the item you would like to sell and then click on the ”sell” button.
You can set a fixed price or use the auction mechanism for your item. If you will set at a certain price for your collectible, you can also include an ending price and an expiration date.
After choosing the method of sale and setting a price, click on the ”post your listing” button. You will be required to make two transactions that only require gas before finalizing your listing.
First transaction is required to initialize your account for making sell orders, which only needs to be done once per account.
The second transaction is needed to allow OpenSea (smart contract) to access your crypto collectible that you are putting on sale.
After making these two transactions, with a last signature request, your non-fungible token (crypto collectible) will be listed for sale.
If you think the price you set for your item was too high after listing the item, you can change it without making any transaction.
Also, all assets on OpenSea are biddable, so you don’t necessarily need to list your item for sale or price your item.
Besides that, depending on the item, you can continue using some items in games while the auction continues.
OpenSea takes 2.5% fee from every successful sale. An additional fee may be taken by the developer of the game as well.
You can check if there is any additional fee on the selling page. |
