Veterinarians have found that social train can scale back canine’ nervousness ranges. They found that taking part in sports activities elevated the probabilities of restoration for canine with generalized nervousness dysfunction.
Flyball, a type of relay occasion involving groups of canine, agility programs, and Canine Freestyle, during which pets dance to choreographed routines with their house owners, are examples of canine sports activities.
“Canine-sporting actions have been extremely efficient for treating typically anxious canine, with simply over thrice the chances of enchancment,” mentioned the researchers from Tufts College in Massachusetts and the Centre for Canine Behaviour Research in Connecticut.
The researchers evaluated 1,308 canine with no less than one type of fearful or anxious habits for the research, which was printed within the Journal of Veterinary Behaviour.
2 hundred and seventy-three of those canine had a generalized nervousness dysfunction, a situation during which the canine experiences continuous or near-constant nervousness or worry whatever the context, affecting its high quality of life.
Professor Nicholas Dodman, a vet and one of many authors of the research, mentioned canine “notably profit from actions that feed into their inherent inclinations.”
A sheepdog, for instance, benefited vastly from sheep-herding lessons.
“The canine was a nervous wreck,” mentioned Professor Dodman. “I prompt to the proprietor to take him to sheep-herding lessons. After a number of trials herding actual sheep he settled proper down. His anxious behaviour was gone.”
The research concluded: “The explanation for the helpful impact of partaking in sporting actions could also be due to the physiological advantages of mobilization but in addition the psychological features of social integration, accomplishment and pleasure.” | <urn:uuid:ed0d0b30-b22f-4d09-baff-142fae20e826> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://babyandpetcare.com/anxious-canines-may-profit-from-sports-activities-research-says/ | 2023-10-04T19:17:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.952041 | 371 |

A recent post by Cassie Ito on her Facebook page arguing for a Single Payer health care system for California of course solicited some comment from me and, inevitably some replies.
One such replies was detailed and extensive and deserves a considered response by me and I quote:
“This is a neoliberal (every man for himself, I’ve got mine, screw you if you haven’t) position. There are many, many things that affect our health that are not in our control, unless we happen to be multimillionaires or billionaires, and possibly not even then. There is environmental pollution, which is nearly impossible to avoid completely. I’m thinking of air, water, and soil, and indoor air pollution, from stuff we clean with, personal hygiene products, the toxins in the clothes we wear, and flame retardants in furniture, and whether or not our living space has exposure to fresh, unpolluted air. In fact, things that affect indoor air quality are too numerous to list in a short response.
Also your stance is a typical male screed, that ignores mothers’ need for prenatal care. Presumbly you had a mother, and a lot of your present-day health is due to your mother’s stringent avoidance of toxins and stress, while you were in the womb, and during your formative ages, 0-5 years. Also, you may not be aware that present mothers’ umbilical cords are contaminated with at least 200 industrial chemicals, which means babies born today already carry a huge body burden of potential carcinogens and endocrine disruptors.”
Of course my argument is completely a-political and argues for a complete reappraisal of what I consider to be a fatally flawed and failing system of health care, or better called ‘disease care’, currently enjoyed or rather suffered by most in the western world.
To get a better understanding we need to briefly look at the history of the current health care paradigm. In the late 1800’s a major conference held in Paris firmly established the guild of surgeons as the supreme (health) authority while the thereto influential guild of herbalists became a much maligned underdog.
But while the surgeons have managed to maintain their hegemony their authority was soon challenged by a completely artificial construct put forward by the mighty Rockefeller family and their cronies who saw a great business opportunity for the completely artificial treatment modality with medicine and drugs mostly derived and manufactured from their very own petrochemical-assets.
Now known colloquially as #BigParms, these super multinational corporations owned by the same Rockefellers and their cronies have continually sought to discredit every healing modality or cure that could not be patented to ensure their continuing profits. Simple natural substances that actually cured disease like Borax, the supressed arthiritis cure and iodine while a long lasting war against #Homeopaty continues to rage even today. On the one hand the pundits of petrochemical medicine claim Homeopathy could not possibly work because the quantities of active substances in Homeopathic remedies are almost immeasurable but on the other hand they keep trying to silence practitioners of Homeopathy likely because in fact Homeopathy represents a real threat to their obscene profit margins.
That BigPharma has even resorted to murder to silence influential adversaries is no secret among those who keep an eye on their affairs, like health researcher, journalist and campaigner Erin Elizabeth who has, to date, recorded and documented 83 suspicious deaths of doctors, researchers scientists and journalists that were perceived to be a threat to BigPharma.
While we see user pay health care (US) and social public health care (UK, AU) not just failing but becoming so expensive that the cost of maintaining a public health system may soon bankrupt the economies of many western nations as it is already bankrupting 1000’s of individuals in those countries ‘blessed’ with a user-pay system like the US.
Even billionaires like Apple’s Steve Jobs have not been able to buy health or a cure at any price. Bucket-loads of money don’t help if you don’t understand the principles of real, natural health.
Finally I cannot finish this post without reflecting on the accusations of some political bias in my writing. I have been accused of being a #NeoCon for suggesting people should start taking responsibility for their own health to get out of the hands of BigPharma and the #MedicalMafia.
Nothing could be further from the truth, I thoroughly despise those who subscribe to the artificial construct called #NeoCon which, cleverly exploited by the #MilitaryIdustrialComplex, will inevitably lead to the complete extinction of mankind through thermonuclear war and social upheaval and chaos. Just as much as I despise the, again artificial social Marxist model where the state becomes the all powerful nanny who, ultimately, can only maintain control by further curbing personal freedom and by having to institute harsher and harsher dictatorial measures to maintain their authority. History is rife with accounts of failed socialist experiments which mostly eventually descended into brutal and bloody dictatorships.
Instead my political agenda prescribes that the individual first take real responsibility for their own actions and health management and then, as they are likely the last remaining individuals capable of such, spend their time in the service of their immediate and extended families and their immediate communities. Without judgment, just by example.

What if there were an app that could help your kids get more responsible with chores–and with money?
We’ve been talking this month about emotional labor and mental load–how to balance all the details that women especially have running through our heads, as we try to make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
In that discussion, a number of people have said: Have the kids do a lot of the chores! Or have the kids be responsible for their own homework or their own piano practicing or getting their hockey gear together, washed and cleaned.
Sheila’s Spotlight: FamZoo Kids’ Allowance App!
Deal with the mental load of allowance & chores!
Keep track of allowance, assign chores & mark them off, all in one place. Plus teach money skills!
Spending. Saving. Giving–all in one app. THIS is what I needed for my kids!
We receive a small commission for each sale that helps support the blog and eliminate ads on this site. Thank you for supporting our ministry!
Supervising Allowance and Chores Is a Huge Mental Load–that FamZoo can Ease
We were quite adamant about chores and allowance for our girls. We wanted them to learn money skills, and we wanted them to do chores, and so the two went hand in hand.
But all too often we ran into problems like these:
- It would be time to pay allowance–but we’d have no cash on hand
- We hadn’t checked to see if the girls did their chores that week, and it was hard to go back and look
- We’d be out running errands, and they’d want an ice cream. They didn’t have any cash. They’d say, “We’ll pay you back when we get home.” And then we’d get home and I’d forget.
- They would put their savings into a piggybank, but we never knew how much was in there.
- They’d get gifts from relatives at birthdays and Christmases, but we wouldn’t have the correct cash to split it up into savings, tithing, and spending.
- They’d want to earn extra money, but I didn’t have any ideas on the spot and they would bother me when I was busy.
How FamZoo Makes Allowance Easy
FamZoo allows you to set up virtual accounts that you can access from a variety of devices that let you give allowance to kids based on chores or based on a set amount. It can keep track of kids’ spending money, savings, tithing, and more. And you can monitor kids’ chores, check them off when they’re done, and even have a checklist of odd jobs that kids can grab if they want to earn extra money.
As a parent, you can see all your kids’ accounts at a glance, and assign them chores, give them money, or do any transaction you want.
Then the child can login and see their own account. And any money they earn can be automatically divided into savings, spending, or giving–in whatever formula you want.
And if you’re out and they want ice cream–you can deduct it then and there.
You can even keep track of chores, or, when kids are older, give them set amounts towards clothing allowances or personal hygiene allowances. Then they’re responsible for spending the money and taking care of themselves, to get used to managing money and budgeting.
And I’m a huge fan of clothing allowances for teaching kids money habits!
Teens can set savings goals, like saving for college or buying a car. They can save towards emergency funds, or even create budgets of their own. And they can see their progress at a glance, or see how much their savings will accumulate over time.
How Does FamZoo Work?
Is it actual money?
It can be. FamZoo has two types of accounts: Prepaid debit cards (available in the U.S. only), or IOU accounts.
With prepaid debit cards, you can order them and then control the amounts with the app. With IOU accounts, it’s a “virtual” bank of what you owe your kids. When they decide to spend some, you’ll have to give them cash, or else transfer money from your back account to theirs (and then enter that as a withdrawal in the app).
How much does it cost?
The IOU version comes for two months free, so that you can see how it works. And then it only costs $30 a year or $2.50 a month for EITHER the IOU version or the prepaid cards (so basically you get the cards for free as long as you deposit using one of their approved ways, like direct deposit from bank accounts). The first four cards for your family are free, and after that you pay a little bit. But it’s really inexpensive.
How Can FamZoo Help You to Reduce Mental Load?
We’ve been talking this month about reducing mental load and emotional labor, and this can help you by urging kids to “own” their own stuff, at age appropriate levels. You can set up reminders for what tasks need to be done, or even homework that needs to be done. You can set monetary rewards or penalties if they do or don’t do certain things (although personally I think consequences should fit the behavior, and if it’s not a monetary issue, I wouldn’t penalize them monetarily).
And if keeping track of their hockey gear or their skating gear or soccer snacks or whatever is really stressing you out, why not assign it to them as a task, pay them $2 a week if they do it, and then dock them $1 if they don’t? (or $2, whatever you want). The app can remind them to do chores, get their skating gear together, even practice piano.
Other Cool Features of Famzoo
- The app can add interest (you choose the rate) to their virtual savings to encourage them to save
- You can charge interest if they have to take a loan
- They can budget for long-term savings, like going to college or buying a car
- You can set penalties for behaviors you don’t like, such as excessive bickering that bothers others in the family or leaving common areas messy. If their allowance isn’t based on chores, but just on being part of the family, then if they make things difficult for the family, they can lose some of their allowance.
- If one child doesn’t do their chores and another child picks up their siblings’ chores, you can even transfer money between the sibling accounts
- Siblings can pay each other for things!
I honestly think FamZoo is the best app, and I love it.
I wish it had been around for when my kids were younger. We started allowance when they were 3, and as soon as my grandson is 3, I’m setting this up with him!
I had two big life skills I wanted my girls to leave home with: I wanted them to know how to maintain a house; and I wanted them to have good money management skills. FamZoo makes both of these so much easier. And it takes away a lot of the stress of the mental load of having to remember allowances and remember to pay kids and remember to charge kids and remember to…well, everything.
So check it out! I think you’ll love it, too.
How do you get your kids involved in housework? How do you keep track of allowances? Let’s talk about it in the comments!

Samsung has achieved its highest quarterly smartwatch shipments in Q3 2021, thanks to the Galaxy Watch 4 series. According to a research report, North America and Europe accounted for 60 percent of the total sales for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4.
The sharp increase in sales figures of Samsung's wearable is mainly because of the new Wear OS platform that the watch features. "With Samsung’s move to use Wear OS, the OS’s share in the smartwatch market increased to 17% in Q3 2021 from 4% in Q2 2021," reads the report.
Check out Amazfit Bip S Fitness Smartwatch with a 40 Day Battery Life as well.
The Samsung smartwatches failed to capture the anticipated market share because the Tizen OS platform lacked support for third-party apps. Even Google's Wear OS platform was riddled with poor user experience, performance issues, and low battery life. Google and Samsung worked together to create a new Wear OS 3 to improve the features and performance of the Android-based software.
The Wear OS 3 was installed in the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and to Samsung's relief, the sales skyrocketed. The Galaxy Watch 4 became a tough-to-beat rival for its own older brothers. Thanks to the new OS, the new Galaxy Watch can launch apps 30 percent faster than its older siblings and also has up to 40 hours of battery life on a single charge.
The new OS platform gave an improved performance for Samsung's new wearable. There were also added features like support for offline music listening directly from the YouTube Music app. Samsung also launched two different versions of the Galaxy Watch 4 - basic and classic.
Apple is still the king of the wearables market but its share fell as its Watch Series 7 release was delayed to the fourth quarter.

Whether you like to gamble or not, there are things you should know. There are legal and illegal gambling activities, and there are also problems related to gambling. There are people who have a hard time with gambling, and there are people who can’t stop gambling.
Several studies have shown that problem gambling affects as many as three quarters of a million young adults in the United States. Gambling problems can affect a family’s finances and relationships.
Depending on the nature of the problem, gambling addiction can be treated with medication, psychotherapy, and self-help groups. Antidepressants and mood stabilizers may also help. A gambling treatment program may include psychotherapy, outpatient therapy, or a residential treatment facility.
Identifying the problem is the first step towards treatment. The problem may be related to mental health disorders, including depression and anxiety.
Despite some positive effects, legalized gambling has had negative consequences for the United States. Legalized gambling caters to addicted consumers, but it also creates a substantial socioeconomic cost.
Casinos and gambling related activities are directly opposed to sound business principles. They are also regressive, causing more harm than good. While gambling may generate some tax revenues, it creates a number of socioeconomic problems, including increased crime and political corruption.
Legalized gambling creates negative economic effects for disadvantaged socioeconomic groups, which tend to gamble more than their more advantaged counterparts. Despite claims that the legalization of gambling will stimulate the economy, there is little evidence that such a thing happens.
Using a coin toss to make a betting decision has been around for ages. In recent years the bookmaker has expanded into the American market. One could wager that flipping a coin has been the most popular prop bet on the property. Some bets have a 5-cent vig. A recent survey of betting executives showed a high degree of confusion surrounding the question of whether or not a coin toss is the correct way to wager on a game.
eSports gambling, also called electronic sports betting, is gambling on competitive video gaming. While this is a fairly new phenomenon, it has a growing audience. Esports betting is similar to traditional sports betting, except that it is based on multiplayer-focused games. This means that the betting slip will include prop bets such as who will win a match, and betting on the first person to destroy a tower in League of Legends.
The esports gambling world is vast, and there are a few things you should know before committing to a site. First, you should be aware that skin betting, which uses virtual items from video games, is not always regulated.
Mental health problems related to gambling
Experiencing gambling problems can lead to negative repercussions in several areas of your life. It can have a significant negative impact on your social and professional life. Problem gambling can also affect your finances and emotional well-being. You should contact a mental health professional immediately if you think you may be suffering from gambling problems.
Problem gambling is an addiction that can be treated through therapy. Therapy can help reduce the symptoms of the disorder and help you regain control of your finances. | <urn:uuid:dc2095a8-4929-4eeb-ab3b-e4e134c317ff> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://barklund.org/problem-gambling/ | 2023-10-04T20:37:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.956136 | 645 |

Gold jewelry is the holy grail for many jewelry collectors as well as a pretty accent on some of your favorite foods and drinks. You don’t have to be too particular with the edible gold flakes but it’s imperative to know the facts when looking for gold jewelry! Pay attention to the purity and think about how often you intend on wearing your jewelry when selecting a grade.
Gold plated jewelry is common in the world of handmade jewelry and high end costume jewelry alike but not known to last very long in comparison to other gold based jewelry. The electroplating process came around in the early 1800s by Luigi Brunatelli. Within this process, a thin layer of gold is bonded onto a base metal such as copper or zinc.
Plated jewelry is more prone to tarnishing quickly in comparison to gold-filled and solid gold jewelry. The higher the karat of plating the higher chances you have of a long lasting piece of jewelry.
Gold filled jewelry is a longer lasting yet cost efficient alternative to gold plated jewelry. All gold-filled pieces must contain 1/20th of gold on top of the base metal underneath. Rather than being electroplated onto the metal underneath, gold is heated and coated evenly on top of the base metal underneath.
Unlike gold plated jewelry, people who have sensitivity to base metals can wear gold-fill pieces because the heavy coating of gold is significantly thicker and not likely to rub away within the next couple of years. With the proper care you can keep your favorite gold-filled pieces for over 15+ years.
Next up is gold vermeil, one of the longer lasting yet cost efficient options. Also known as silver gilt, Vermeil is made using an electroplated plating process similar to that of standard gold plating. The main difference is that underneath the thin coating of gold is none other than fine or sterling silver. This sometimes creates a washed gold finish that buyers love or hate.
Solid gold is one of the most expensive and valuable metals on the market right now. It’s also one of the most popular design metals in the world of luxury goods, reasonably so, we’ve seen it worn by royalty throughout history and the elegance has yet to fade away. Solid gold jewelry is attractive due to it’s weight, finish, purity, and ability to provide a warm accent to gemstones and charms alike. There are no base metals in pure solid gold so you never have to worry about tarnishing or allergies from exposure base metals. A big downside of solid gold metal is that it is soft and can easily bend or scratch.
WHICH TO GET
You should get Gold Plated if:
- You only intend on wearing it for a special occasion
- You won’t be wearing it on your skin often
- This is the time for you to experiment with your personal style
- Are NOT allergic to base metals
You should get Gold Filled if:
- You like cost efficient yet long lasting jewelry
- You need a meaningful and long lasting gift for someone
- You are able to keep up with it after wearing
You should get Vermeil when:
- You want the cost efficiency of gold-fill but don’t want to risk the eventual exposure to base metal
You should get Solid Gold if:
- You need something like treasure to pass down to your posterity
- You enjoy jewelry that will not ever tarnish
- You are extremely careful with the storage and wear of your gold, it’s sensitive. | <urn:uuid:864ca7af-abf8-4607-a4cf-e95ad7a5e2ce> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bead.com/gold-filled-gold-plated-vermeil-and-solid-gold/ | 2023-10-04T18:49:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.941715 | 748 |
When is the last time you sat down and took inventory of your business skills and experiences?
Are your prices the same now as they were when you started?
Taking a little time out to look at what you are truly offering your clients and prospective customers can shift how you create profits for your business.
There are three kinds of entrepreneurs when it comes to deciding how much they charge for their services.
- The entrepreneur that under charges for their services because they don’t feel they have the skills for more or they don’t want to leave someone out who cannot afford them.
- The entrepreneur that over charges for their services because “darn it I am worth it”. They feel they are going to charge higher because they want people who have money and they want to get the biggest bang for their time.
- The entrepreneur that charges exactly what they feel is the value they can provide. They are confident that the right people will pay them and they will give them great value in return for that pay.
I want to say that there is nothing wrong with any of these kinds of mindsets when it comes to pricing for service based products and services. The challenge comes when you stay with that same mindset as you grown and you notice your profits are not where you would like them to be.
But what if you can take an honest look at the time, money, knowledge and skills you have put in along the way to be the person you are today to become the business owner that you are. What if you could increase your profits in your business not because you need more money but because you see the value in doing so?
Did you do a little research on what others are charging for similar services and then pick a number you felt comfortable with to start charging your clients? How long have you stuck with that number because it feels comfortable to you? In that research, did you take into consideration the education, training, skills and certifications those people had in order to charge those prices? Did you take into consideration the education, training, skills and certifications you have to decide your pricing structures?
There are many factor that need to be considered to create the prices you can get for what you are offering in your business.
You will want to make sure you work out your pricing so you can maximize your value in your industry and get paid what you have earned.
Check out my Business Skills Valuation Toolkit so you can really hone down what your best prices for your service based business should be.
What is the Value of your business right now?
It is pretty simple to figure it out if you are documenting everything. I highly recommend a computer financial software to make it easy for you to document where all your cash is coming and going from. But if you are not doing that yet then you still need to document everything when it comes to your money! Get a notebook and document all the payments you receive, the fees, expenses and what you are paying yourself. If you have any employees then by all means get with a bookkeeper and get yourself legit!
Here is the simple formula Gross Revenue – Expenses – Your Pay = Net Income
- Gross Revenue
- Minus Expenses
- Minus Your Pay
- Equals Net Income
Calculate all your income from all business sources. That is your gross revenue. Then calculate all the expenses you pay out from your business (even if it is in your personal name). What have you paid yourself? (If you say you paid yourself nothing from your business then you are crazy and truly need to schedule a coaching appointment with me so I can tell you how dumb this is and help you see the light to start paying your most valuable asset!) Once you subtract your expenses and your pay then you get a total that is called Net Income.
See it is not hard! Well it’s not hard if you are documenting and keeping track of what your money is doing. If you are not yet doing that please start today. How do you expect to see a profit in your business if you are not even looking closely at your numbers? And if you tell me “I’m not a numbers person” then I will say “become a numbers person” because that is what it will take to become a successful business owner verses a statistic that says 20 percent of all new business will fail within the first two years.
Net income lets you know if there is any money left in your business! If there is money then you get to decide where you reinvest any profits. If you do not have any profits (because you are a profit based company and not a non-profit business) they you will have to figure out how to get more clients or reduce your expenses. More importantly if there is any profit, you want to ask yourself “what will I spend it on”. No, a shopping spree is not a good idea!
Now that I have helped you see what money is flowing in and out of your business you might be asking “why it is important to do a valuation on your service based business” on a regular bases. Let me show you how a valuation of your business can be used now and for your future.
On a big scale, you may want to get a small business loan or line of credit, sell your business, attract investors or you may want to buy out a partner. Those are all great reasons to understand the value of your business. These may be important for future exploration in a long term business.
Around five years in business, a larger company approached us to sell our business to them and I had no idea how important a valuation report was until then. (Sometime ask me to tell you the story of selling my first business and how it changed my life.)
On a smaller scale you want to know your business value because you want to invest in yourself with education and skills, invest in software to make your life simpler in your business, buy yourself a new computer, actually pay yourself a good salary or invest in a mastermind program for your growth.
So often entrepreneurs will say “I can’t afford that”, “that is way too pricey” or “my spouse will never let me pay that”! The reasons you say those to yourself is because you don’t know the value of your business and you don’t understand if you are making profits in order for you to reinvest in yourself and your business! If you are not paying attention to the money and what you are spending it on then of course you can’t afford it!
You also won’t set goals to make it happen, because you cannot see the clear vision that your dreams want for you. Instead, what you see is the clutter created by the chaos of what your money may or may not be doing. (That is a whole other topic!)
If you are willing to evaluate your business each year you will notice that you don’t have the same profits every year. But you will be able to see a pattern of what is important for you each year based on what you are spending money on and who you are bringing into your business as a customer. Assess it and make necessary changes each year so you can grow your business and become profitable!
Start today and focus on what you are bringing into your business, what you are paying out in your business and discovering what your profits are so you can build a profitable business!
Testimonial from Kristen Robinson
“When I stop and think about what Kimberley has done for me and my business, words cannot express my gratitude. I was in a situation where I wanted to pay in full for a business program. It looked really far out of my reach and started to feel like a dream. I didn’t think there was any way to get in the program, let alone stay in it because the price tag was pretty high. With Kimberley’s help, I paid more than 30% of the tuition! Not only was I able to get into the program and make the payments, but know I’m more confident than ever that I can do anything I set my mind to. The best part is thanks to Kimberley, I have no trouble making the payments because I know what’s possible! Thank you, Kimberley, for showing me that I’m limiting myself to “right now” thinking vs. of “where I want to be” thinking!” | <urn:uuid:619419ed-923e-4eac-b7b2-1e402ecfa419> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bealegacy.com/how-a-service-business-valuation-can-help-you-increase-your-profit/ | 2023-10-04T19:44:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.969645 | 1,752 |

- Starting in fall 2023, Duke College will cowl the schooling of undergraduate college students from North Carolina and South Carolina whose households earn $150,000 or much less a 12 months. This consists of college students from navy households whose authorized residence is within the Carolinas, no matter the place they’re stationed.
- The personal nonprofit college in North Carolina may even present monetary help to cowl housing, meals and different bills for residents of the 2 states whose households make $65,000 or much less yearly.
- Round 340 of Duke’s greater than 6,500 undergraduates are anticipated to obtain roughly $2 million in grant help, in response to a Tuesday information launch. Duke stated it expects the variety of eligible college students to rise over the subsequent 5 years, growing this system’s price ticket by $6 million to $7 million every year.
Sticker worth, or marketed value, for undergraduate tuition at Duke is simply over $60,000. Within the 2020-21 educational 12 months, a majority of scholars, 54%, acquired a median of $46,726 in grant or scholarship support, in response to federal information.
The college’s new initiative goals to bridge the remaining support hole, particularly permitting college students from the bottom revenue backgrounds to attend “with out the necessity for pupil loans.”
However such packages are costly and might solely be carried out and maintained by rich faculties. Williams School, a non-public nonprofit faculty in Massachusetts, discontinued its “no-loan” pupil support coverage in 2010, after a pointy drop in its endowment.
“We all know that college students with higher monetary constraints are extra probably to decide on faculties which can be nearer to their properties, and that lots of these college students may even select to remain nearer to house after they graduate,” Gary Bennett, dean of Duke’s arts and sciences faculty, stated in an announcement. The humanities and sciences faculty admits 4 in 5 of undergraduates college students at Duke.
“Retaining expertise is important to our area’s success; Duke’s dedication to those college students can also be a dedication to the North and South Carolina communities they name house,” he stated. The subsequent spherical of monetary support statements, out by July 1, will replicate the brand new help.
Duke is not the primary college to announce a “no-loan” support program for this fall.

The initiative, set to start in fall 2023, is meant to extend enrollment of scholars who have not historically attended faculty. | <urn:uuid:6daf8895-a167-4d75-acef-5bf3aa2c5383> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://beingteaching.com/duke-will-cowl-tuition-for-carolina-college-students-from-low-and-middle-income-households/ | 2023-10-04T19:19:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.958801 | 595 |

To make it even more special, this sweet couple live just down the road from Our Lady of the Mount Roman Catholic Church, making this painting even more meaningful.

The Bentley’s Namesake
Alvin M. Bentley III was a graduate of the University of Michigan (’40 B.A.,’63 M.A.), a member of Congress, a member of the U.S. Foreign Service, a University of Michigan Regent, and a philanthropist. Bentley died in 1969 at the age of 50. In the fall of 1971, his widow, Arvella, donated funds to build new quarters for the Michigan Historical Collections, which became the Bentley Historical Library. Today, the Alvin M. Bentley papers are housed at the library and are open to the public. | <urn:uuid:2588ba75-7ba9-40c8-82ed-fa9bf0fa83f1> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bentley.umich.edu/about/ | 2023-10-04T19:58:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.938991 | 347 |
The lottery is a form of gambling wherein people can win a prize by selecting numbers. It is a popular way to raise money for projects that are otherwise too expensive to fund. In the United States, lotteries are regulated by state governments. They can take many forms, including instant-win scratch-off games and daily games. Some states even organize a national lottery called the Powerball. The prizes are typically cash or goods, but there are also some cases where the winners can choose to receive services instead. The prizes are usually divided into several categories depending on the size of the jackpot and the total amount raised by the lottery.
Lotteries are popular because they are relatively inexpensive to organize, are easy to play and can provide significant amounts of money. However, there are some important things to consider before you play a lottery. First of all, you should remember that you have a very small chance of winning the jackpot. However, if you have the right strategy and perseverance, you can maximize your chances of winning the lottery.
You can improve your odds of winning by purchasing more tickets, but you should not be misled by the infamous “lucky numbers” or other superstitions. In reality, there is no magical formula to increase your odds of winning the lottery. It is only through careful use of mathematics that you can make more informed choices. In fact, no one has prior knowledge of what will happen in a lottery drawing, not even a paranormal creature.
In addition to limiting your ticket purchases, you can also increase your chances of winning by choosing a smaller number field. This will lower the number of possible combinations, and consequently increase your odds. Similarly, you should avoid selecting the same numbers more than once.
Another way to improve your chances of winning is to join a lottery syndicate. A syndicate is a group of people who put in a small amount of money to buy more tickets, thereby increasing the chances of winning. However, this should be done with caution, as it can lead to addiction. If you do decide to join a syndicate, it is important to know how to calculate the odds of winning.
It is important to keep in mind that you are not just investing $1 or $2 in a lottery ticket; you are investing billions of dollars in government receipts that could be used for other purposes. In addition, lottery players as a group contribute a large percentage of their incomes to gambling, which should not be seen as a painless form of taxation.
The history of lotteries is long and varied. The casting of lots has a considerable record in human history, but the lottery as a means of raising funds for material gain is comparatively newer. The earliest known public lottery was organized by Augustus Caesar to finance municipal repairs in Rome. In the 17th century, lotteries became quite popular in the Netherlands, where they were embraced as a painless form of taxation. | <urn:uuid:33709d86-5e70-488d-9616-1993a4a3477c> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://beritabola.live/important-things-to-consider-before-playing-a-lottery/ | 2023-10-04T20:00:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.977573 | 594 |

How to Download Parimatch Bet App in Nigeria?
Parimatch is among the most actively used betting platforms in the world. It’s also one of the pioneers of the Nigerian gambling market. There are many reasons why this bookmaker attracts punters and gamblers from all over the globe, but our article will focus mainly on the capabilities of the sportsbook’s app and the features it can offer to Nigerian bettors. We will explain how to download it, its strong points and drawbacks, and compare it to the desktop version.
The sportsbook is fully accessible in Nigeria and holds local registration in the country. Its license, with the number 0001045, was provided by the National Lottery Regulatory Commission. The platform also offers dedicated support channels for the residents of the country.
The Features of the Parimatch Mobile App
The Parimatch app is packed with useful capabilities. Providing a complete sports betting experience, the mobile app offers access to casino options and various betting markets, including live ones, streaming, and customer care. The app is genuinely well-designed and in many ways superior to the desktop version.
How to Download and Install the Parimatch App
The way the process is usually handled on one operational system is different from the other. However, sadly for owners of Apple devices, Parimatch won’t be your next favorite app, since it is only available for Androids. In the sections below, we will explain how to get the application right onto your smartphone.
Supported Android and iOS Devices
The Android version requires version 4.3 or newer. It was released more than a decade ago, so the chances that your device operates under an older system are close to zero.
Speaking of iOS devices, as we’ve mentioned above, you won’t be able to install the app. However, it does not entirely cut off your ability to place bets on Parimatch from your phone. You’re still more than welcome to take advantage of the mobile version of the website.
How to Download and Install on Android
The process of getting the app onto your Android device is rather easy. We will explain it down below.
Android System Requirements
The requirements are quite low. Your phone must be operating on Android 4.3 or later. Your device must have at least 1GB of RAM, which is not a problem for the majority of modern devices either.
How to Install Parimatch App
- Visit Parimatch and Go to the Bottom of Its Main Page. Go to the website. Then scroll down to the bottom of the page.
- Locate the “Mobile App” Option and Download the APK. Find the “Mobile App” button and click it. The Parimatch APK file will be downloaded shortly.
- Run the FIle and Allow Your Device to Install It. Open it on your phone. Allow installation from an unknown source.
How to Install and Download on iOS
Sadly, there’s no way to download and install Parimatch on iOS because the app simply does not exist. However, we do really hope that bettors will see the iOS version of the app in the near future.
The Comparison of UI and Features: App, Desktop, and Mobile
The app and the mobile version of the website look almost identical. The app’s interface is more minimalistic, and the number of available features is exactly the same for both the desktop version and the app. The latter don’t compromise on its capabilities, and provide a fully-fledged experience wrapped in a neat-looking UI.
Main Features of the Parimatch App
As was mentioned elsewhere in the article, the app is full of various features, functions, and capabilities. They provide the same things that are accessible to desktop users.
Streaming and Live Betting
Both live streaming and in-game betting are available on the platform. The former makes it more convenient for the punters to check the games, while the latter allows one to place a bet during the event, making the experience more fun.
Mobile Sports Betting
The application provides the same options for betting that the desktop version does. All of the betting markets are available. But it’s worth mentioning that they are rather limited on the platform in general. The variety of wagering options has never been a strong suit of Parimatch. So the available ones mainly consist of over/under’s, totals, and moneylines.
The list of available disciplines, however, is quite large. It includes football, cricket, and darts, among many others. The eSports are also offered: you can bet on League of Legends and CS:GO.
There are several casino options available to the users. All of them are also accessible from the mobile application. The slots include:
- Lucky Streak 3. This is a standard slot machine: you have to get three identical symbols in order to win.
- 27 Wins. Another classical slot game but with more variety: there are many winning combinations, so you will never be bored trying to catch them.
Mobile Live Casino
Live gambling is all accessible in the Android application, as well as a mobile version of Parimatch’s website. The options might be a bit limited, but we are sure that they will find a place in the hearts of many players.
Customer Support in the App
The ways to communicate with the customer support channels are accessible from the app. You can leave your contact information for the service if you experience any issues or have any questions.
Bonuses in the App
Unfortunately, there are no specific bonuses for those who access the platform using their phones. All of the usual bonuses, including the welcome offer and casino ones, can be used by the players in the app.
In nearly three decades of operation, Parimatch has acquired a large level of popularity and proven in many ways that it can be trusted. The platform also took its time to polish what it offers and become better at the things it was already good at.
If you want to learn more about the sportsbook, read our full Parimatch review.
Is the Parimatch app safe?
Yes, the app is legit.
Is Parimatch available in Nigeria?
Yes, the platform is registered and licensed in Nigeria, it also offers a dedicated version of the website to the residents of the country.
Is Parimatch available in the Play Store?
No, but you can download the APK file directly.
How do I install Parimatch?
In order to install it on the Android phone, go to the website and download the APK file.
Are Parimatch and Bet365 the same?
No, there’s nothing indicating that both platforms are owned by the same company. While some design features of the website might look similar, everything else is different. | <urn:uuid:2fcc1c0f-4eaa-438d-9f20-3491b6741fc7> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://betnigeria.ng/how-to-download-parimatch-bet-app-in-nigeria/ | 2023-10-04T20:22:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.943285 | 1,448 |

True Hope and Real Healing for Single Parents and their Children
1 in 4 children in the US are growing up in a single parent home. Single mothers and fathers have much higher likelihood to live in poverty, as they face incredible work/life balance issues. Single Parent Families have unique needs and issues constantly affecting their inability to overcome ruin. The emotional and financial toll on most of these families is actually helping to create an even younger population of single parents who are just children themselves.
Single Parent Advocate is committed to educating, equipping, and empowering Single Parent Families with resource information, practical assistance, emotional encouragement, and social networking such that those who need help get help – and those who want to help, can.
Single Parent Advocate, a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization providing resource connections, growth-based training, and support for single parent families, based in Dallas Texas and the surrounding areas. Additionally Single Parent Advocate corresponds with families from all over the United States and consults non-profits, churches, and businesses on how to build a program for success in serving and engaging single parents within their respective organizations.
What we aim to solve
Single Parent Advocate works hard to establish needed services for Single Moms, Single Dads as well as their children. 1 in 3 children in North Texas are being raised in a single parent home, and most of those homes are struggling financially to find their footing. Only about 30% of the available jobs in North Texas pay enough for a single parent with two children to be self sufficient. They need our support.
The organization hosts social functions and provides emotional and practical support during key holidays and seasons of the year including, but not limited to:
- Valentine’s Day Safe Social
- Mother’s Day Dinner Celebration/ Father’s Day Fun Day
- Back-To-School Supply Drive & Distribution
- Thanksgiving Food Drive & Distribution
- Christmas Gift Drive & Distribution
- Online and Mobile Correspondence
Single Parent Group Development Consulting
People often write in asking how they can begin a group in their area or within their organization.
Single Parent Advocate would like to help with this and consult. Eventually, we would like to offer chapters as well.
Education & Professional Development Scholarships for Single Parents
Single Parent Advocate provides funding periodically to Nominated Parents actively enrolled in University, or, Professionally required continuing educational program. This is usually a program that runs adjacent to our Safe Social Back to School Outreach in August.
Quotes from our supporters:

Invitation from Wild Woman to YOU!
“This is an invitation to you, the women of the world, to re-claim your wildness.
The wildness/naturalness of your body- it’s sensations, it’s feelings, it’s wisdom, it’s divinity.
Within you there is a whole landscape of beauty & wilderness that needs to be protected. The beauty & wonder you find in the forest, looking at a mountain rise out of the earth or floating in the ocean under a blue sky is within you. The power of the ocean, the beauty of nature, discover it all within. Within the most vulnerable part of you lies your deepest strength & knowing. This is the part that knows, that has the map of your longing, desires & what you need to be wild & free.
I am here to help you re-claim your divinity, your wisdom, your wildness.
I envision a world where women are restored to their Wildness. Through the Arise Wild Woman Program (link to webpage), a woman is cradled in safety- just as she was in the womb. She can then innately turn inward for her truth, listening to, attuning to, responding to the sensations and feelings that course through her divine temple.
Through this work, you will learn how to utilize those sensations and feelings to inform your decisions. You’ll learn how to trust those sensations again, rather than stuff them down, make them wrong or shut your self off from yourself. You’ll learn that it is safe to feel, that it is essential to feel- for it is your access to your joy. It is designed to support you, and the women of the world, in regaining this connection.
My wish for you, is that you will awaken to the miracle that you are and gain trust, compassion and reverence for the wild woman that you are. It is my heartfelt desire that you will incorporate your wildness and surrender to your essential nature through the connection to your body. For this my love is where your joy lies, where your life force lies, where your divinity lies. Welcome home Wild one. Welcome home.”
The Arise Wild Woman Program is a culmination of over 30 years of personal growth and education to heal my relationship with my body, connect with my joy and creativity, make healthy, self-honoring choices, and release addictive patterns of people pleasing and co-dependency. The key is in the connection to your body. The key to connecting to your body is safety. The key to safety is to experience being guided, supported, held and witnessed as you learn to access the emotions, sensations and wisdom your body holds. Arise Wild Woman is designed to deliver just that.
I have created it for YOU. Whether you are a woman who feels challenged by the way her body looks, feels or moves; or a woman who feels incapable of speaking up for herself and finds yourself prioritizes others needs and wants before hers. Whether you’re a woman who feels stuck in an unhealthy/unfulfilling relationship; or a woman who finds herself underearning, over-extending, underestimating your value, and overcommitting. Whether you’re a woman just awakening to your own power or a woman who has done a lot of personal growth work- Arise Wild Woman will support you in creating a deep and lasting connection with your body- that will serve you throughout your life- as you continue to nurture and treasure the Wild Woman within.
I share this program with blessings to you wherever you are on your journey.
I invite you to lean into your longing and learn more about the Arise Wild Woman Program.
We’re waiting for you… | <urn:uuid:b84a82b8-caa6-46ab-ad23-0da42044f350> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bewildwoman.com/arise-wild-woman-invitation/ | 2023-10-04T20:12:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.94649 | 786 |

On the wall of my office hangs a beat-up sign that says “Breslau Farm.” More than sixty years ago, that sign stood on the corner of Scantic Road and Route 5 in East Windsor, Connecticut. It pointed to my father’s farm, our farm. Now it presides over a bulletin board full of notes for writing a book about my father, Sam Breslau.
Am I writing a memoir? A personal history? A biography? Many years ago, I interviewed my father Sam using a little mini cassette recorder. Recently, I finally listened to all the tapes and transcribed them. I was surprised that it wasn’t upsetting to hear his voice. I had thought it would make me sad, but instead I felt soothed, comforted.
I’m writing about Jewish chicken farmers immigrating from Russia. About my father Sam – a man who did good deeds – as Stephen described him, he was a “Good Deed Doer” the title the Wizard of Oz gave the Tin Man. Sam was a mitzvah man.
When Stephen invited me to write Pilgrim Maya with him, we had a wonderful, fluid writing method that involved passing a single file back and forth, editing pages, adding more and sending the file back. It was a dynamic collaboration. We were able to finish Pilgrim Maya in less than a year. I believe Pilgrim Mara will eventually delight a host of readers.
It has taken decades for me to begin Sam the Mitzvah Man, this book about my father. How long will it take me to finish it? Only time will tell . . .
Have any of you started to write a memoir or a personal history of family? We’d love to hear about what you are writing. | <urn:uuid:d502a8ed-97d4-41d7-9813-d774310ea74d> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://billiasbreslauwriters.com/belas-book-project/ | 2023-10-04T20:17:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.968369 | 373 |

Flexshopper came in handy last Christmas and this Christmas as well. I just finished paying one of my orders and just order some more items. They deliver promptly. Customer service is great. I have had no problems with them.
Flexshopper is awesome. Unlike other popular local lease to own shops, they can get you virtually any item. I'm a music producer, and I wanted a particular device, and I got it, with no problem. They are awesome, and I will shop with them again!
It has been a great experience. The payments are low. I bought my son an Xbox two years ago but it was paid for in twelve months. I will get Christmas gifts this year.l
Amazing company, my fiancée uses them. Easy to afford payments, simple to understand terms and amazing name brand products.

Your Birth Day Tarot Card is Strength. This card shows that a focused mind can help you get what you want from life. The Minor Arcana cards are Five of Pentacles and Knight of Pentacles
People born on the 26th of April are imagined to be visionary yet practical and full of the determination and persistence typical for a Taurus. This particular day's astrological planet is Saturn, it makes your temperament very inquisitive with fine judgment skills and sharp decisiveness. If you have this birthday your amiability has a serious side to your nature that is gracious, shrewd and sensible. You are usually inventively creative and adept at management and problem solving giving you an excellent business mind. You are also likely to have fairly fixed ideas and views along with a strong need to collect, preserve and protect things. Individuals with an April the twenty sixth birthday tend to keep their beliefs and opinions to themselves but can be quite stubborn if they believe they are right about something. Like all bulls you need to be loved and understood to feel complete and will be loving and supportive in return. | <urn:uuid:c85cd67d-f8ee-4b09-860b-5eb0f4b37e54> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://birthcandle.com/products/april-twenty-sixth-candle | 2023-10-04T20:27:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.954298 | 277 |
What Is An ICO?
Entrepreneurs that want to start a new cryptocurrency can do so via an ICO, which is a form of initial public offering (IPO). An ICO can be launched by a company wanting to raise funds to develop a new currency, software, or service.
ICOs are another type of cryptocurrency that businesses use to raise funds. ICO trading platforms provide investors with unique cryptocurrency “tokens” in return for their monetary investment in the firm. It might be referred to as corporate fundraising. Investors who engage in an initial coin offering will get a new cryptocurrency token issued by the firm.
Why do People Invest in (ICOs)?
The key reasons for investing in ICOs are profit and the ability to join in ambitious initiatives. ICO cryptos are an excellent alternative for investors since they are supplied at cheap rates in order to generate demand before they can be traded on the markets. As a result, when most tokens first reach the market, they are in great demand, and early investors can benefit from selling them.
During an ICO, also known as a “crowd sale,” investors purchase tokens that may provide them with a variety of benefits. They anticipate that the project in which they are investing will be successful and that the value of its token will rise. For example, the Ethereum blockchain project raised USD 18 million in bitcoins in 2014 by selling its token ether for USD 0.40. The price of ether in December 2017 was around USD 750. In other words, if you purchased $100 worth of ether tokens at the 2014 ICO, your investment would have been worth more than $187,000 in December 2017.
Tokens often bestow a variety of rights on their holders, and individual tokens may impart a variety of rights. Such rights may include the following:
Token Holders Rights
Payment rights: You can use where a token is the only means of “payment” for a platform or service.
Access rights: You can use it where the token is required in order to use the platform.
Profit or fee rights: You can use it where “holders of a token get a portion of revenues or profits”.
Contribution rights: You can use it where token holders are allowed to play a role in maintaining the network that doesn’t involve creating blocks for a blockchain.
Block creation rights: You can use it where tokens determine who secures the project’s blockchain.
Governance rights: You can use it where token holders can influence project features, direction, protocol, and more.
Things to know before you invest in an ICO
Don’t know which ICO to invest in? Or perhaps you simply want to know more. It might be confusing, but we’ve got you covered with six recommended practices for selecting an ICO to invest in.
While they can be extremely profitable for both corporations and investors, they also carry a significant level of risk owing to their unregulated nature. Despite the knowledge that the vast majority of ICOs are fraudulent, many regular people continue to take part.
The cryptocurrency market is mostly unregulated or you can say uncontrolled. This means that if an ICO is a scam or the company fails, investors may be on their own. Neither of these situations is out of the ordinary, and with irreversible transactions and few rules, you can only rely on yourself to make wise financial decisions.
Here are some suggestions before you choose an ICO.
- Do your own Research on ICOs (Important)
- Read and Study an ICO’s White Paper
- Check The ICO’s Site
- Know What ICO Coins are For
- Evaluate the ICO Team Composition
- Check the Long-Term Use of the Funds
How To Identify Fraudulent ICOs?
If you come across an ICO project that you want to invest in but want to reduce your risk, keep an eye out for the following probable red flags:
- The project’s creators are unknown, utilize fictitious names, or have fake social media accounts. There is little to no credible PR or media activity or positive mentions of the project.
- The team lacks professionals with relevant experience.
- The token or blockchain does not appear to be required to achieve the project’s objectives.
- The ICO is not backed by any legal body.
- The whitepaper and business strategy appear unrealistic and/or lack a deep study of the industry and competition.
- There is no working prototype.
- The project doesn’t have a clear roadmap.
- There is no escrow wallet that allows investors’ money to be sent to developers (ideally in sections) only when specified requirements are satisfied.
- There is no reliable company or project behind the ICO project.
Finally, you have to do your own research and figure out for yourself whether the ICO is credible or not. Try to avoid projects with numerous red flags or the ones which are located in uncertain regulatory environments, and your ICO investment should turn out just fine.
What is the best ICO to invest in in 2022?
Are you planning to invest in cryptocurrencies? Just make sure to do your homework because ICOs are barely regulated.
BTL is a safe and secure ICO to invest in. The company called Bitsleader regulates BTL. You can read the whitepaper, can check reviews online, and can also ask people on social media. | <urn:uuid:a6cd8d69-fc37-4f97-aede-d6d7fa50628c> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bitsleader.com/blog/initial-coin-offering/ | 2023-10-04T20:47:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.939523 | 1,114 |

Indie VN developers, Vagrant Muffin already have two games under their belt, Fool’s Helper and Lucky Days, but, I’ve only played the former, and for what it’s worth it’s a pretty fun game. So, when I saw that they’d just released the demo for their mystery romance visual novel, Red Wolf Hiding, I made a bit of time in my schedule to give it a playthrough.
After a yearlong undercover mission, Janet Dover (name changeable) is now assigned to Gerald Reeve’s team. Headquarters believes there’s a traitor in the ranks, leaking information to a dangerous enemy known as the “Wolf”.
Her job is to find the traitor, but what else will she learn along the way?
I can honestly say this promises to be a quite the undertaking, with six romanceable characters each with three distinct endings, and a mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat… this game hits all my gaming qualifications!
Red Wolf Hiding has more than a few allusions to the Little Red Riding Hood fairytale: the protagonist is nicknamed ‘Wolf’ and not more than five minutes in, one of the love interests, Gerald goes on at length about the similarities between the fairytale and the mole situation plaguing their team and the police department. Hell, it’s even in the title of the game, but rather than playing it straight with their fairytale origins like Alice in the Heart or Cinderella Phenomenon, Red Wolf Hiding keeps things grounded in reality, while throwing subtle homages in here and there.
The bulk of the demo focuses on the efforts of the protagonist, Janet Dover, a she attempts to suss out which member of Gerald Reeve’s team is secretly working for notorious crime boss, Mark Wolfe. There are six romanceable characters, and I have to give it to the Vagrant Muffin team, for having a diverse cast of characters and if you’ve read my other reviews, you know how much I love seeing POCs in my games!
Each of the characters are well fleshed out, with unique quirks and personalities, though I will admit that I am in love with Emmett! He is such an adorkable nerd! In the demo you spend a fair amount of time with all of the characters, save Mark Wolfe (since he’s the “villain”) and Gerald takes on more of a mentor like role in the common route, so I wasn’t feeling the love on that front. Gotta give props to the leading lady, Janet, OELVNs are known for having stronger MCs and Red Wolf Hiding doesn’t disappoint. She isn’t some meek damsel in distress, she is a capable detective who isn’t above pulling rank when she has to.
Story wise, I like that they gave us a detective/mystery romance VN, since most of the games on the market are either supernatural romances or high school romances, and nothing wrong with that, but it’s nice to have some variety! The premise of the game is similar to Voltage Inc.’s Liar Uncover the Truth, the player spends time with a group of characters and attempts to uncover which one is the “wolf in sheep’s clothing”, but where the endgame for Liar was primarily focused on finding a potential lover, in Red Wolf Hiding, the romance aspect seems to play second fiddle to the overarching mystery plotline.
The art was really clean, the backgrounds are solid but nothing that really jumped out at me or especially wowed me. The character designs were great, as I mentioned before this is a pretty diverse cast, with Kent Chun and Beau Guillaume, standing out as the most, the former being on the heftier side and the latter being my much desired sun kissed love interest. But, based on the last names of some of the characters, they each come from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds. The sprites are well designed with some basic animation and varying facial expressions and character poses. The music is pretty simplistic, restricted to bass heavy instrumentals, that sound like something you’d hear in a hipster bar or during the chase scenes of a Law and Order episode, but it does give the game a much more mature feel, so it’s cool. There wasn’t much in the way of additional features, since the demo only covers the common route/prologue, so don’t expect any special gimmicks or additional features… and there were no obtainable CGs (though there will be quite a few in the final release of the game.
Overall, I liked the demo for Red Wolf Hiding, it doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles, just your run of the mill VN gaming experience, but that allows the story to really shine. The detective/mystery premise is definitely one that will appeal to a wide range of gamers, especially those that tend to shy away from otome and romance themed games. Throw in the phenomenal Heroine, Janet, and the well rounded cast of diverse love interests, and you have what promises to be a rather entertaining game! I’ll definitely be checking out the final release of the game, but, if you’re still not convinced, I urge you to check out the demo for yourself!

That’s the number of people engaged in fantasy games across the US and Canada. Not only that, even 20 million people in a small country like India are engrossed in fantasy games.
Fantasy sports apps are indeed a great new business model in 2021. Especially, fantasy cricket app development can fill your bank with money. That’s because 71% of fantasy players are involved with cricket betting games. Now, who doesn’t want to feel like Preity Zinta or Shahrukh Khan while buying their fantasy team players from an auction?
So, if you wish to enter into cricket betting app development services in 2021, let us walk you through the entire process. This guide covers all the essential components to develop your dynamic fantasy cricket app. So, let’s start the match…
What is Fantasy Cricket?
Have you watched IPL? Of course, you do. Then, you already know what fantasy cricket is; the only difference is it’s played online. That means you create a virtual team of real cricket players and win based on your players’ real-life performance.
A fantasy cricket match is based on batting and bowling order. A small change in player order can change the course of the game. In short, everything is like a real cricket match, from a number of players to matches’ forms. But you are in the virtual world!
Usually, a fantasy app works something like this:
- Log in to the app, go through OTP verification and select your match.
- Now, you have to form your virtual cricket team. You need to select 11 players and three substitutes based on auction, offline drafting, or Serpentine methods.
- Manage your team, elect a captain, and modify the team at any point during the game.
- Your players receive points as per their performance. Obviously, the team with the highest point will win.
Fantasy Cricket Betting vs. Normal Cricket Betting
We all know that betting is illegal worldwide, but fantasy betting isn’t illegal. If you develop a fantasy cricket app, you aren’t breaking any law because:
- Normal betting means simply putting in money and getting a reward; there’s no skill involved. On the contrary, fantasy betting is a game of skills and requires intensive knowledge to build a team.
- Fantasy betting is exempted from gambling laws because it is categorized as a ‘Game of Skills.’
- The winning amount is subjected to tax deductions.
Notably, fantasy betting isn’t illegal. But, many countries and states have banned it. Thus, you should go through your local gambling laws before starting your cricket betting app development.
Fantasy Cricket App Development: Profitable or Non-profitable in 2021 Based on Trends
Before diving into the fantasy cricket app development, you should take a look at the fantasy sports trends:
- The global sports industry is worth up to around $620 billion.
- The fantasy sports market was at $340.47 million in 2021.
- The fantasy sports sector in the US reached $8.48 billion in 2019.
- By 2024, fantasy sports user’s spending is projected to reach 62 billion.
- In the US, daily fantasy sports revenue was $2.91 billion in 2019.
- The Indian fantasy sports industry is expected to be worth $3.7 billion by 2024.
Popular Fantasy Games
We have already established that cricket is the most popular fantasy game. However, football, basketball, kabaddi, hockey, and baseball are also ruling the fantasy world.
The US and Indian fantasy sports market is booming dramatically. But that doesn’t mean other countries aren’t running in the league. Australia, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, West Indies, Bangladesh, and many other countries are embracing fantasy sports culture.
Top Fantasy Game Apps
Knowing your competitors is the first step in building a new business model. With your fantasy cricket app development, you have to directly compete with:
It is the oldest and most popular fantasy cricket app. With over 2 billion players and multiple sports, Dream11 is thriving in the industry. The app deals in almost every sport including, cricket, hockey, football, and more.
MyTeam11 was founded in 2016 by Vinit Godara and Sanjit Sihag. They have acquired 18+ million users with a free sign-up bonus and many other cash rewards within a short span.
MPL is a very popular app in India endorsed by Virat Kohli himself. The USB of the app is that they immediately transfer money to their users’ wallets.
It is a famous fantasy sports app in the US. The app is officially partnered with the National Hockey League. FunDuel provides many other services, including online casinos, horse race betting products, sportsbooks, etc.
Halaplay is definitely the best fantasy cricket portal. Millions of fans currently use the app. Swapnil Saurav develops Halaplay to reform the online cricket betting experience.
How Fantasy Sports Apps Make Money?
After knowing your competition, you need to select your business monetization method. It is essential to make a roadmap in advance to earn loads of money from your fantasy app. At Arthonsys, we follow a very simple approach — we understand clients’ requirements before customizing revenue generation plans for them. However, the common money-making methods for fantasy cricket apps are:
Advertisements: Advertising is a common revenue method for apps. You can let other brands advertise their business through your app offerings.
Participation Fees: Many fantasy sports platforms host contests and allow users to win cash rewards. They fix a participation fee for users and use a portion of it to pay winners.
User Engagement Models: Large platforms like FunDuel let their users participate in multiple contests weekly. In return, they increase the fees collections from the league while entwining the participants for the completion.
Features to Include in Your Fantasy Cricket App Development
Finally, the most important part of fantasy cricket app development — features. You have to pay special attention while designing the app’s feature and should take guidance from a cricket app development company. Although, you can refer to the below-mentioned common feature chart.
Must-have Cricket Betting App User-side Features
Real-time Analysis: Users want fast results today. They want real-time analytics to improve their performance. Thus, do include live tracking or activity tracking features in your fantasy app.
Gamification: Using gamification features, you can increase user engagement levels. Allow users to participate in quizzes, prediction contests, or introduce minigames within the app.

How To Improve Sex Performance
One of the best ways to improve your health is cardiovascular exercise. Sex might get your heart rate up, but regular exercise can help your sexual performance by keeping your heart in shape. Thirty minutes a day of sweat-breaking exercise, such as running and swimming, can do wonders to boost your libido.
Stress can affect all areas of your health, including your libido. Stress increases your heart rate (in the bad way) and increases blood pressure. Both of these are damaging to sexual desire and performance. Psychological stress can also affect achieving an erection or reaching an orgasm. Exercise is a great way to reduce stress and improve your health.
Talking to your partner about your stress can also calm you down, while strengthening your relationship at the same time. Stress can also trigger bad habits, such as smoking or alcohol consumption, which can harm your sexual performance.
Stop Consuming Alcohol and Smoking
What you rely on to unwind, such as smoking and consuming alcohol, could also affect sexual performance. Stimulants narrow blood vessels and have been linked to impotence. Cutting down or quitting smoking is one of the first steps to improve performance. Replacing bad habits with healthy ones, such as exercise and eating well, can help boost sexual health.
Get Some Sun
Sunlight stops the body’s production of melatonin. This hormone helps us sleep but also quiets our sexual urges. Less melatonin means the potential for more sexual desire. Getting outside and letting the sun hit your skin can help wake up your sex drive, especially during the winter months when the body produces more melatonin.
Pay Attention To Your Partner
Sex isn’t a one-way street. Paying special attention to your partner’s desires not only makes sex pleasurable for them, but it can also help turn you on or slow you down. Talking about this beforehand can help ease any awkwardness if you need to slow down during a heated moment. Alternating pace or focusing on your partner while you take a break can make for a more enjoyable experience for both of you.
Tips And Tricks
Limit alcohol intake beforehand – Alcohol affects everybody differently, but overall, drinking too much before sex can dull your sensations and make it harder for you to stay aroused.
Foreplay is important – Slowly stoke the flames with a bit of foreplay before exploding into the main event.
Lubrication – Lube can make sex more enjoyable by cutting down on the friction.
Be present – Don’t rush your sex session. Instead, be present in the moment, savoring every moment of pleasure.
Explore more than just the genitals – If you focus on the genitals, you’re bound to orgasm quickly. Instead, go slow and explore the whole to build up desire.
Alternate between active and passive roles – Switching between roles will allow your arousal to go in and out like waves, which will make sex last longer.
When To See A Doctor
• feel pain or discomfort during or after sex
• have difficulty ejaculating or reaching orgasm
• are unable to keep an erection | <urn:uuid:9c670c38-c241-416e-9f15-092620499092> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blog.asgargroup.com/2020/12/24/easy-ways-to-improve-your-sexual-performance/ | 2023-10-04T18:56:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.92785 | 644 |
Ok, so you know how, week after week after week, we complain that The Weekly is the same old thing? This week they changed it. And in a development that shocked us to our very core, it actually made the show better. Who even knew such a thing was possible?
Yeah, maybe we should be a little less snarky when we’re trying to pay a compliment. Here’s how it broke down:
*Usual rubbish intro with that pointless checklist – ooh better not turn over before Pickering gets to Dog Anti-Vaxxers.
*A couple of middling Eddie McGuire jokes which were made worse by being back-to-back
*Press conference jokes! These are always gold… FOOLS GOLD that is #zing
*Judith Lucy Wellness Warrior. Nice work as always, only reason we’re still watching.
*Oh great, a bunch of clips from A Current Affair. Remember when The Chaser used to do this stuff and it was funny and had a point?
*Hang on… isn’t that Briggs? Sitting at the desk with Pickering? Did this ever happen last year?
*Briggs on a bike isn’t our favourite segment, but we’ll give The Weekly a thumbs up for it going into an election because having Briggs – a cast member who really only has this occasional segment – conduct the political interviews off the lot makes it almost possible to see the interviews as a separate thing that doesn’t taint the integrity of The Weekly. Not that it has much integrity to taint, but at least having the bits with politicians as an entirely separate thing handled by a solo cast member means they don’t feel quite so much like the show is cozying up to the people it should be making fun of.
*And it’s interview time. Hey, clips from Get Krack!n – oh, now the rest of The Weekly is going to look sad in comparison. Awww.
*Another shit clip joke bit. Ha ha, politicians have to say and do stupid stuff in locations they know little about because if they don’t the media won’t cover their policy announcements.
*Hard Chat. What’s left to be said about this segment that hasn’t been said about being buried alive in a landslide of shit?
*And… that’s it? The show’s over?
It turns out that all you have to do to lift The Weekly from a totally pointless show to an almost tolerable one is get rid of the extended news segment where Pickering “takes down” some tepid weeks-old issue that social media has already passed judgement on. Or get rid of Hard Chat / Tom Gleeson, because halfway through the main interview we started to wonder if he’d been cut and seriously, when you start to think there’s a good chance Tom Gleeson isn’t going to turn up watching The Weekly becomes a lot more pleasurable.
But of course, next week they won’t have a segment with Briggs they have to try and fit in and things will go back to usual. The Weekly clearly has problems that run bone-deep – the bits where they do snarky voice-overs over footage of politicians really need much smarter voice-overs to seem better than the time-fillers they currently come off as – but it’s depressing to realise how little needs to be done to make the show noticeably better.
Especially as, as Charlie Pickering reminds us at the end of every season, it’ll be back next year. | <urn:uuid:7c88a34f-6bdb-46f2-a70f-b3152e9a74fd> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blog.australiantumbleweeds.com/2019/04/the-weekly-shall-rise/ | 2023-10-04T19:18:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.965203 | 766 |

As part of my series on “How to live without Microsoft” I’m looking at alternatives for common Microsoft products.
Microsoft office is a great suite of programs with really good interoperability but it is a costly package and requires a windows operating system to run to what are the alternatives?
For me the only really complete set of tools is that offered by Open Office. It’s a great suite that’s been around for some time now so is pretty mature, it supports all the open standard file formats and best of all, it’s free!

Machine learning (a field of artificial intelligence) is a rapidly expanding technology that we see in use more and more in our daily lives. It is used to give us more accurate results when we do an internet search, suggest products to us when we are shopping, and offer diagnoses to our maladies.
But what exactly is machine learning? How does it work and how is it implemented? There is a lot to cover on this topic, but I want to give you a brief introduction to the main types of machine learning and some of the algorithms used.
Note that most of the math/logic associated with machine learning is available via programming libraries in many languages. That being said, you still need to understand the basic principles of machine learning to know what algorithms and procedures you need to use. Hopefully, this blog will help you out with making the right choices.
Definition of Machine Learning
To wrap our heads around what machine learning means and what it is trying to do, let’s look at a couple definitions. First, here is the ‘layman’s’ definition:
“(Machine learning is) the field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed.” , Arthur Samuel
A more formal definition is:
“A computer program is said to learn from experience E with respect to some class of tasks T and performance measure P, if its performance at tasks in T, as measured by P, improves with experience E.” , Tom Mitchell
So what does that mean? IT is basically saying that a machine is learning if it get’s better at the task is performing the more times it does it. ‘Normal’ algorithms do the same thing every time they are run. Like a fine wine, machine learning algorithms get better with age.
Types of Machine Learning
In supervised learning, we are given a data set and already know what our correct output should look like. We have the idea that there is a relationship between the input and the output. There are two main types of supervised learning: Regression and Classification.
Regression algorithms are used for results that can be any real number.For example, predicting the price of a house would be a regression problem, since the output can take on any of a wide range of values. One of the most common algorithms used for regression problems is Linear Regression.
Classification means that the result is one of a distinct set of values. Classification includes ‘true/false’ problems such as ‘will this house sell over the asking price?’ It is also used for assigning objects to a particular category. Classification’s go-to algorithm is Logistic Regression (don’t let the regression in the name fool you). Both Linear and Logistic Regression come to us from the world of statistics.
Unsupervised learning is a flavor of machine learning in which we do not have a set of data with answers to train on. Unsupervised learning is used to find trends in data. Some examples of how it is used include sorting, market segmentation, anomaly detection, and spam detection.
So how does machine learning work? There is a lot to cover in the field, but for now I just want to introduce some of the basic concepts at a high level. For a supervised learning problem, we can sum up the learning strategy as follows:
- If we have a set of ‘test’ data with a certain number of ‘features’…
- We can form a ‘hypothesis’ function so that…
- When we plug our features into the hypothesis, we can adjust the ‘theta’ parameters for features to minimize the ‘cost’, or error between our predictions and known outcomes
OK, so what does all this mean? Well, features are simply the various data points we are using to help us make our prediction. In our house selling price example, features could be the size of the house in square feet, the number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, size of the lot, neighborhood average income, etc. Note we can also ‘create’ our own features to help fit our data better. For example, we might use the square of the number of bedrooms (i.e. numBedrooms2) to help our features map to our known outcomes better.
These features are plugged into our hypothesis function. Our hypothesis function looks like this:
Here are a few definitions to help make sense of this:
y = the predicted result
h = our hypothesis function
θ = adjustable parameters of our hypothesis
x = training features for our hypothesis
So we can wiggle our ‘Theta’ (θ) parameter values to make our training features in our hypothesis generate predicted values that map closely to the actual results in our training set. We measure how closely we are matching using the Cost Function. I am not going to bore you with the math, but the Cost Function basically measures the average error across all samples in our training set.
Now that we can measure the cost, we want to minimize it. We want to wiggle our Theta parameters to get the best fit (i.e. least error) for our data. We use ‘minimization functions’ to accomplish this. One common technique is called Gradient Descent. There are many other advanced minimization functions as well. These all serve the purpose of finding the best Theta parameters for our hypothesis; some algorithms are more efficient and can process our data faster.
Bias & Variance
Bias and Variance are terms used in machine learning that refer to how well your hypothesis is fitting your training data to the actual results. Bias refers to the degree of underfitting of your predicted results to the actual results. Variance refers to the overfitting of your predicted results. Here’s a few graphs to give you a better idea (note we only have 2 features; a lot of concepts in machine learning are explained with 2 features, since we can graph them!):
How are Bias and Variance used? These metrics give us insight into how we should adjust our hypothesis to get a better fit. We can use Learning Curves to give us insight as to whether our hypothesis is exhibiting high bias or high variance characteristics. In a learning curve, we compare the results from our training set with the results from a cross-validation set.
Typically when training a machine learning algorithm you split your data into a training set (~60% of the samples), corss-validation set (~20% of the samples) and test set (~20% of the samples). Once your machine learning algorithm is tuned with the training and cross-validation sets, the final error can be measured with the test set.
Here are a couple examples of learning curves:
A High Bias Learning Curve. Note the training and test error are close together, but higher than the desired performance.
A High Variance Learning Curve. Note the training error is better than the desired performance, but the test error is not.
If we have a high bias or high variance problem, what can we do to fix it? We have a few options at hand:
If the problem is high bias, we can try to add more features by either collecting more information per sample, or creating our own polynomial features.
If the problem is high variance, we can reduce the number of features, and/or get more training examples. As you can see in the high variance graph above it looks like test and training error are converging with more samples. This (typically) makes a high variance problem easier to solve than a high bias one. We simply need to gather more data for the algorithm to learn from.
Error Analysis is an important aspect of creating a useful machine learning algorithm. This is the process of looking over your results and seeing how you can improve them. Here are some tips about performing error analysis:
- Start with a simple algorithm, implement it quickly, and test it early.
- Plot learning curves to decide if more data, more features, or less features will help.
- Manually examine the errors on examples in the cross validation set and try to spot a trend.
- Get error results as a single, numerical value; otherwise it is difficult to assess your algorithm’s performance.
- You may need to process your input before it is useful. For example, if your input is a set of words, you may want to treat the same word with different forms (fail/failing/failed) as one word, so you could use “stemming software” to recognize them all as one.
We’ve only scratched the surface here regarding some of the basics of machine learning. Hopefully after reading this you have a sense of how machine learning works, what it can be used for and some basics on the implementation of machine learning algorithms.
If you want to learn even more ,I highly recommend this online course by Andrew Ng at Stanford University. It will show you how to implement your own machine learning systems.

I do not know if it's the same wild hare that greets me each morning as I approach the barn but there is a good chance that it is.
She brings a twinkle to my eye, as I think she just might be trying to say to me in her own wild hare way, where have you been?, or maybe, you are late, your are late for an very important date!...

Java Annotated Monthly – November 2015
From mobile devices, to middleware, to enterprise applications, Java has played a crucial role in shaping the design of business software for over twenty years. But Java’s audience is both the means of its growth and cause its own captivity. When a programming language is used by nearly half the world’s developers, we seldom stop to ask, “Is there a better way?” There is no question the best years of Java are yet to come, but there is change afoot in the Java ecosystem. Looking toward the next twenty years of Java, we must carefully ask ourselves, where does it lead us?
The course of adopting a new language often requires a large investment in translating programming skills and source code. Traditionally this choice was a fork in the road for software developers – at JetBrains, we believe there is a Middle Way. Today, there is a language that grows with you, revealing powerful idioms and a flexible grammar. This language offers seamless interop with Java, and advanced language features from inherent null safety to smart type-casting. By combining the world’s smartest developer tools and nearly two decades of experience writing Java, we are pleased to introduce Kotlin, a very practical choice for your daily development needs.
Exploring Kotlin, you will find many delightful features, from string interpolation to operator overloading. Functional programmers will be pleased to find dedicated support for higher-order functions, tail-recursion and other useful FP concepts. But no matter your programming background, Kotlin gives you a vocabulary to be productive right away. Java developers will find unrivaled null safety, and with extension functions and properties, Kotlin lets you write flowing DSLs with the type-safe builder pattern, translating to fewer bugs at runtime, and more concise, readable code. Android developers will find a handful of utilities to help make their lives more pleasant.
This month marks the release of Kotlin 1.0 Beta Candidate, a journey that started at JetBrains over five years ago. To learn more, give it a try! Join hundreds of Kotlin enthusiasts on Slack, get practice writing Kotlin Koans, spark your interest with reading material for Android developers, and start your own journey with Kotlin today!
This month we had the pleasure of meeting old friends and making new ones at the 20th inaugural Java convention in San Fransisco. Each year we count down the days to JavaOne, and each year we learn something new. This year, some of our favorite speakers taught us about hidden treasures in Java 8 with Venkat Subramaniam, how to design APIs with Java 8 Lambdas and Streams from Brian Goetz and Stuart Marks, and writing effective Java Streams with Paul Sandoz. That’s just the beginning.
Avid readers of the Java Annotated will already be familiar with a number of ongoing trends at JavaOne, starting with modularization in Project Jigsaw. For the uninitiated, three talks from the JDK leads offer an extensive introduction to Java modules, an upcoming feature available to preview in Java 9 builds today. In contrast with Java 8, preparing for Java 9 will require a number of language and tooling changes as well as the fairly controversial change to remove and encapsulate most internal APIs.
A recurring topic this year was Java’s return to user interfaces with a growing emphasis on mobile, both areas that have received serious attention in recent years after many years of stagnation, thanks the heroic efforts of JavaFXPerts and newcomers alike. Oracle/Java has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting rich UI applications, by providing JDK Ports to Modern Mobile Platforms and spotlighting key JavaFX contributors like Gluon and RoboVM, in an effort to bring cross-platform Java applications to more consumer mobile devices.
While the reactive programming paradigm has found new life in today’s era of microservices and distributed computing, web applications are not the only area that has benefitted from reactive. Enthusiasm for reactive patterns has carried into neighboring programming domains, including user interfaces, Kotlin programming and even the OpenJDK project, so it was only a matter of time before Android developers were able to convince themselves the virtues of reactive programming. Despite skepticism among certain circles, many developers and teams have been able to apply RxJava and RxAndroid to compelling effect, including Juan Gomez at Netflix, and Matthias Käppler at Soundcloud.
RxJava does have certain caveats, in the form of performance overhead and more importantly, the issue of debugging. With added layers of indirection comes increased complexity at runtime, generally making stack traces completely unreadable. This is a problem currently being addressed, underlining the importance of building developer tools and frameworks hand-in-hand. While there are many options available for Configuring Android Studio, unfortunately there is no Auto-Debug option. Instead, you must log all the things.
In other news, there is now a very useful plugin for running ADB over wi-fi.
Develop with pleasure!

Chelsea host Southampton in the Saturday clash of Premier League 2020-21 at Stamford Bridge.
Match Timings: Oct 17, 7:30 PM
Chelsea is ready for the home clash with Southampton on Saturday evening. After the exit from EFL Cup to Spurs on penalty-shootout, Chelsea defeated Crystal Palace 4-0 to find the rhythm in Premier League, courtesy of Jorginho’s brace and Chilwell-Zouma’s one goal each. The 2-0 defeat to Liverpool and 3-3 draw with West Brom questioned their defence. The Blues have won seven of their previous nine matches in Premier League with Southampton. Standing at 7th in the table, Lampard’s men conceded fewer goals at home since the start of the last season and they have won seven out of their eight games at Stamford Bridge with keeping five clean sheets.
Meanwhile, Southampton started off the season with 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace and later, Spurs added one more defeat in their bag with 5-2. Before the international break, the Saints picked up 6 points from their last two ties with Burnely and West Brom, without conceding a goal. Both sides met twice in the previous season and Southampton had the last laugh at Stamford Bridge with a 2-0 victory after receiving 4-1 defeat at home. Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side aims to add second away victory against Chelsea and the last they did so in 1985.

Coding comes to ITE College West with Microsoft Code for Change
More than 700 students across specialisations introduced to basic app creation and computational thinking
SINGAPORE – 11 April 2016 – Microsoft today conducted coding workshops for some 700 ITE College West students under its Code for Change programme, introducing them to the basics of coding for app creation and computational thinking. Held over two sessions for students across the four schools at the College – the School of Electronics & Info-Comm Technology, School of Hospitality, School of Engineering and School of Business & Services – the workshops provided students across various fields of study with the opportunity to learn and share the experience of coding alongside their peers. The activity also marks the first large-scale on-campus training for post-secondary students under the Code for Change programme.
Launched in July 2015, Code for Change is a three-year nationwide initiative spearheaded by Microsoft, supported by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) and the Science Centre Singapore, to boost next-generation talent development in support of Singapore’s Smart Nation vision. Through Code for Change, Microsoft is leading specific programmes to help young talents nationwide develop computational thinking skills. Defined as the ability to dissect problems and formulate solutions in a way that computers can understand and evaluate, computational thinking is an increasingly important skillset in the technology-permeated landscape.
During the workshops held today, the ITE College West students tried their hand at building apps through Touch Develop, an interactive programming environment developed by Microsoft Research. Using their mobile phones or laptops, the students were exposed to how they can easily code on familiar everyday devices in a fun and accessible manner.
The workshops were designed to allow all students, regardless of knowledge of coding or course of study, to create their own app by the end of the session. Besides those enrolled in the four courses from the School of Electronics & Info-Comm Technology (Higher Nitec in Information Technology, Higher Nitec in Cyber and Network Security, Higher Nitec in Electronics Engineering and Higher Nitec in Security System Integration), ITE College West students who participated in the training also come from other fields of study including the Higher Nitec in Hospitality Operations course from the School of Hospitality, the Nitec in Automotive Technology (Light Vehicles) and Nitec in Automotive Technology (Heavy Vehicles) courses from the School of Engineering and the Higher Nitec in Leisure & Travel Operations and Higher Nitec in Service Management courses from the School of Business & Services.
“As Singapore transforms into a Smart Nation, it is important for the workforce of tomorrow to understand how technology works and how it can be used to improve the way we work, live and play. Coding and computational thinking are no longer areas that are important only to those in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields. In fact, computational thinking is also embraced for its wide applicability to solve everyday problems. We are proud to be able to work closely with partners, schools and institutions such as the ITE to introduce coding to even more students and equip young talents with the necessary skillsets to become innovators of the future. Through Code for Change and our other initiatives, Microsoft will continue to get more people started on their coding journey and contribute towards the development of computational thinking as a national capability,” said Nobuhiro Ito, Director, Developer Experience & Evangelism, Microsoft Singapore.
“As we prepare our students to be ready for their careers, we hope this coding workshop will help them develop computational thinking skills such as analytical and problem solving skills, creativity and logical thinking. These skills are transferable assets across industries and will certainly allow them to contribute more in their future jobs,” said Tan Kay Chuan, Director, School of Electronics & Info-Comm Technology, ITE College West.
Since its launch last year, Code for Change has reached over 147,000 learners and youths through various coding programmes such as learning experiences through on and off-campus curricula, events and competitions that impart the fundamental concepts of programming for software, applications and websites. Examples include Kodu coding workshops for lower primary students, Hour of Code programmes for upper primary and lower secondary students, Touch Develop and Project Spark workshops for secondary school, post-secondary and junior college students, and the Microsoft Imagine Cup Competition for institutes of higher learning.
Microsoft and Science Centre Singapore also joined hands to achieve a record-breaking feat that made its way into the Singapore Book of Records for the Largest Number of People Wearing Illuminated LED TShirts. The event saw over 180 students from 17 schools across Singapore, as well as participants from Microsoft and Science Centre Singapore, come together to design and code individual LED T-Shirts, which lit up in unison to complete the record-breaking milestone.
In addition, Microsoft has leveraged its partner network to conduct coding workshops for students and adults at Science Centre Singapore, and support Science Centre Singapore’s efforts in fostering widespread interest in the STEM fields.
Code for Change events are running throughout the year and upcoming events opened to the public include: | <urn:uuid:73e574d8-cd21-47fa-81b0-cd5a4f01ffaa> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blog.reignofcomputer.com/2016/04/coding-comes-ite-college-west-microsoft-code-change/ | 2023-10-04T20:44:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.941125 | 1,047 |
Well I saw Dr. Lindquist today...it was a relief. I shot the video before I actually saw him so let me make a few clarifications in advance.
1st, the hunk of fat I hold up represents 5 lbs and To date I have lost 25.5 lbs and 4 points on my BMI score. With that I have moved from the ranks of the Morbidly Obsese to just plain Obese.
I never thought I 'd be happy about being Obese. Thank God for small victories. Oh...and my resemblence to the poster behind me, an unfortunate coincidence.

No more extra fields when manually running rules.
All Triggers can be automated in Usedesk. To do this, in the "When" field, you need to specify the condition under which this Trigger is executed. But for some Triggers, the automatic launch is not required — for such cases, there is a manual launch mode in Usedesk. In this mode, the rule is triggered by a person's decision, so the "When" block does not work, and you do not need to fill it out. But the block was still displayed, and this confused users — they wasted time filling it out.
Now, in the manual launch mode, we hide the "When" block — it no longer confuses users. | <urn:uuid:2063bd7b-5769-4990-95ce-2f70f453acd5> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blog.usedesk.com/blog/april2021 | 2023-10-04T19:13:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.93947 | 152 |
From the country that is more proprietary than any other when it comes to wine terms—France—we bring you yet another complaint about language.
Over the years, French vintners have spent a good deal of money and time in court seeking to ban other countries from using such geographic names as Champagne, Burgundy and Bordeaux on their bottles of wine.
And now, they would like American wineries, as well as wine estates in other countries, to stop using the word “Chateau” in their names.
“What is at stake is the respect for tradition and quality,” Federation des Grand Vins de Bordeaux President Laurent Gapenne told Raf Casert of Associated Press.
The latest brouhaha stems from the desire of American vintners to have trade barriers removed by the European Commission. There had been a three-year grace period on the use of “chateau” and “clos” by American vintners seeking to sell their wares to European Union countries, but it expired in 2009. There’s a wide trade gap between the E.U. and the U.S. that American vintners are hoping to close.
The Wine Searcher website lists 13 California wineries that include “Chateau” in their names:
Chateau Julien Wine Estate
Chateau Margene Cellars
Chateau Montelena Winery
Chateau Potelle Winery
Chateau St. Jean
And with wine now being made in all 50 states, you know there are many more wineries that also use the word in their names.
It’s a classic turf war, playing out on the chalky, stony vineyards of Europe and America.
How do you feel about this issue? Should any country other than France be able to use the words “Chateau” or “Clos” on its wine bottle labels? We welcome your thoughts in the Comments box below. | <urn:uuid:ea9c00b4-86dd-431b-8e5c-f183e25e9878> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blog.vinesse.com/2012/10/10/france-says-no-to-chateau/ | 2023-10-04T19:14:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.943358 | 474 |
If you run a small business, you know how important and expensive it can be to maintain a professional image across all of your communications – including your phone. So what’s an entrepreneur on a tight budget to do? Sign up for a virtual phone system!
A virtual phone system acts just like a traditional business phone system — only at a fraction of the cost. It's also stacked with powerful features and perks designed to save you time and money. From enterprise-level features, such as auto-attendant, call recording, call screening and forwarding, voicemail transcription, to business SMS and the options to choose both toll-free and local numbers (plus so much more), the right virtual phone system has everything your business needs to succeed.
So, what types of businesses can benefit from a virtual phone system? Here are a few examples:
Caterers are on the go and must have a way to connect with their clients wherever they are. From weddings, to corporate events and retirement parties, customers want to know they can reach you without playing phone tag. A virtual business phone system allows you to take your business phone with you on the go, and with features like Reach Me Anywhere, you can be sure no call goes unanswered.
When emergencies arrive, your patients want to know you’ll answer—or at least return their call before the next business day. With features like voicemail transcription and business SMS, you’ll always get your messages, day or night, and can be sure to keep your patients smiling.
Taking care of children can be stressful enough, but knowing you have a reliable and mobile virtual phone system at your fingertips can relieve some of the burden. Taking advantage of features such as call routing, business SMS (think photos to parents) and customized professional greetings allows you the freedom of giving the kids your full attention, while also managing communications with parents and inquiring new customers!
Much like human parents, pet parents want to know their fur babies are being well cared for. Sending daily pics and checking in via SMS and managing new voice messages with intelligent voicemail, makes communications easy—even when you’re knee deep in drool!
When you’re on the go, having a phone system that moves with you is key. Powerful features like business SMS, call forwarding and conference calling allows you to organize vendors and venues, all while maintaining a professional image and exceeding expectations.
If you are still using a traditional business phone system, you’re probably paying too much and not getting the flexibility you need. If you're relying on your personal mobile number to do business, you can benefit from a separate business identity and phone line. A virtual phone system is the modern answers to client communication for entrepreneurs on the go. | <urn:uuid:f9ab5834-b8df-49d5-80f7-5e50a1ef4cd3> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blog.voxox.com/blog/tag/virtual-phone-system | 2023-10-04T19:58:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.942608 | 583 |
Why Motorized Blinds Are a Great Option for Your Home
Home automation is becoming increasingly popular, with a number of devices being run by smartphone apps or remote control.
An excellent example is motorized window blinds. One of their key benefits is managing the heat in your home by opening and closing at scheduled times. This also enhances your comfort and decreases your energy bills.
In this post, we discuss the key reasons why motorized blinds are an excellent choice for your home.
Top Reasons for Choosing Motorized Blinds for Your Space
Whether you are moving to a new apartment or remodelling an existing one, installing smart blinds can be an excellent option in Canada where temperatures fluctuate greatly with the seasons. Here are some vital reasons for making this choice.
They Are a Safer Option
Window blinds that use cords, especially those with loops, can suffocate children and pets. But motorized blinds are run by electricity or battery, not cords. This allows both parents and pet owners to not worry about such hazards. Undoubtedly, these blinds are an excellent addition to a room, especially bedrooms.
They Are Convenient
Convenience is another key reason why homeowners prefer motorized blinds. They may be opened or closed by pressing the button on a remote or tapping a tablet or smartphone –either at home or from another location.
Moreover, you may program them to open and close at specific times of day, or according to the total amount of natural light or temperature inside the room. For instance, they may be set to close at night and open when you awaken. As they may be easily adjusted without getting up, these premium window blinds are highly beneficial for both the disabled and the elderly.
They Provide Diverse Control Options
Motorized window blinds can be controlled using multiple methods. It is recommended to have both a wall-mounted switch and remote in order to help any person operate them easily. As mentioned, you can also run them through smartphone apps that provide trouble-free control, including voice commands.
They Prevent Sun Damage
Constant exposure to sunlight can fade furniture, flooring, and window coverings. However, automated blinds provide optimum protection by being programmed to open and close at particular times. This also makes them a good choice for homes with many windows, particularly those that are difficult to access.
They Are Affordable
These window blinds improve the energy efficiency of your home because of their ability to insulate and control the total amount of natural light coming in. In fact, keeping them open allows you to use fewer lights during the day and less heat in winter.
Because they can be scheduled to open and close at particular times, they provide optimum lighting control which reduces your energy bills.
Motorized blinds are an effective and easy way to enhance the security, convenience, and comfort of your home. As modern technology continues to infiltrate our daily lives, upgrading standard window blinds to motorized ones have become much easier. To learn more about these automated blinds or other window coverings for your living room, bedrooms, et cetera, contact a leading window treatment company now. | <urn:uuid:d1da4261-03fe-41a2-aa59-bbdfeb2fb93a> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bloggerguestpost.com/why-choose-motorized-blinds-for-your-home/ | 2023-10-04T20:50:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.941289 | 644 |

I had started this meme back when I saw it at Lost Pilgrim (which I read religiously, especially on Friday, so I can see how Richard has brilliantly perverted the FridayQ that week). But something happened for one reason or another and I forgot about it.
Until Kazza did it, and now I feel I feel compelled to finish it (so you have her to blame!).
Basically, the idea is to open up your web browser of choice, then type in each of the letters of the alphabet to see what is "autocompleted" in the URL field. Kind of a nifty idea for a meme, I must say! To spare those of you who don't want to view 26 of my bookmarks, the list is in an extended entry. Though, I must say, a few of the links are worth a look if you don't already know about them...
- a: AdTunes. Ever hear a song in a commercial and wonder what it was? AdTunes to the rescue.
- b: Blogography. No, not my blog, but the maintenance page where I have to manually approve each and every comment, thanks to dumbass trackback and comment spammers.
- c: Cinescape. A genre entertainment site that doesn't have an atom/RSS feed, which means I have to check it every day. Oh how I loathe sites without syndication!
- d: del.icio.us. A "social bookmarks manager" which shows what people have been bookmarking on the web. I sometimes go here to get ideas for blog entries when nothing is happening in my life.
- e: Empire Magazine Online. This is hands-down the best movie magazine on the planet, and funny. Since it costs a fortune to have it imported from the U.K., I have to make due with reading bits of it online instead. I wish they sold a digital edition at Zinio.
- f: flickr. A photo sharing service that kicks ass.
- g: Gizmodo. It's the gadgets weblog!
- h: Hard Rock Cafe. Just checking to see if there are any Hard Rock openings I should know about for DaveCafe.
- i: iStockPhoto. A brilliant alternative to outrageously expensive stock photography, iStockPhoto allows people to upload and share royalty-free photography. Every time somebody downloads one of your photos, you get credits that you can then use to download other people's photos. If you don't have any credits, just buy some for 50 cents each! Lo-Res photos are 1 credit, Medium-Res is 2 credits, and Hi-Res is 3 credits. That's right... $1.50 for a Hi-Res, royalty-free photo. Amazing.
- j: Jay Pinkerton. A funny blog with humor that's not for everybody (i.e., it's foul-mouthed).
- k: My So-Called Strife. This comes up under "k" for "KirkKitsch." Kirk's got a terrific site with loads of 80's pop culture entries that are pretty sweet. He sometimes documents everyday events in his life with amusing photos, which I find highly entertaining.
- l: Lost Pilgrim. The aforementioned site which originally got me started with this meme.
- m: Métrorama. Beautiful panorama photographs of the metro stations of Paris (that's "subway" to us Americans and "Underground" to my U.K. friends).
- n: News at the BBC. The only news site I bother to read. The BBC may not be perfect, but it beats the heck out of American news sites, which are strongly biased, total crap sites which rarely tell the whole story.
- o: Orbitz. Travel reservations site.
- p: panoramas.dk. Continuing my infatuation with panorama photography, this site has some terrific shots.
- q: Quizilla. Probably comes up because I recently added a quiz there.
- r: Rotten Tomatoes. A movie review aggregator that give you "the big pictue" as to how a movie is reviewed. Includes the major critics (like Roger Ebert) and complete tools (like James Berardinelli) so you get a pretty good idea whether an unknown movie is worth your valuable time to watch/rent.
- s: SNL Archives. An exhaustive reference for the television show Saturday Night Live. All the episodes, all the guest stars and musical guests, all the players (and what they did), everything.
- t: The Futon Critic. Excellent source of news and happenings for television junkies.
- u: Urban Dictionary. Most excellent dictionary of all those slang terms kids are using now-a-days. Very educational.
- v: Vintage Vantage. Cool vintage T-shirts.
- w: WSDOT Pass Cams. Whenever I have to drive over to Seattle in the winter, I check the Washington State Department of Transportation Mountain Pass Web-Cams to know which route I should take (Blewett/Snoqualmie or Stevens).
- x: X-Entertainment. Goofy pop-culture site.
- y: Yes Asia. Source for Asian books, movies and other merchandise that's a total rip-off of Amazon in "look and feel."
- z: Ze's Page. Why, it's the brilliant Ze Frank, of course!

Respecting the families’ euphoria and personal grief, I delayed this blog post on the Hillsborough inquest verdicts (the verdict came at lunchtime 26 April 2016). Let them savour their day in court, and well done to all on the Justice For The 96 campaign, especially Michael Mansfield QC, who has now got into a bit of a habit of shaking the conscience of our society and our complacency about our state agencies.
What marked out this coroner’s inquest was the patient-centred approach taken by all. There was a dignified silence within the coroner’s court and outside on the court steps as Liverpool football club’s fans and the bereaved families sat listening to the sensitively presented coroner’s reports on the circumstances of each victim’s death.
The tone, language, and sensitivity of the narrative was quite different from the one used in the original documents and inquest 27 years ago. Maybe it is the patient-centred modern coroners’ courts, or the unbiased, well trained, and independent teams used on this fresh inquest that brought out very sensitive, personalised, and touching “cause and time of death” reports.
It started by simply calling each victim by name and not a letter or number (96 names in all were read out!) and each injury and the reason for asphyxiation was shared in a personal way.
The jury’s verdict was but an anti-climax after the coroner’s thorough findings into the tragic deaths all those years ago in the Sheffield Wednesdays’ Stadium.
Suddenly I realised that patient-centric post-mortems and inquests led by culturally sensitive coroners were just as important in restoring a deceased patient’s dignity and giving closure to the bereaved, as is patient centric healthcare when they were alive.
While all the development and innovation in health systems has been concentrated upon frontline services, everybody has forgotten about the coroners. The Coroner and Justice Act 2009 creates a unique chimera of a doctor-lawyer (the coroner) who has to investigate each death that is sudden, unexplained, violent, or within a state institution and care facility. If there is a hint of “unnaturalness” about the death that is not explained through a post-mortem, then the coroner has to hold an inquest. This is an open public court hearing held to establish who died and how, when, and where the death occurred. Actions later follow the verdicts of the jury as the Criminal Prosecution Service (CPS) and the police have to bring about criminal proceedings where deaths are declared unlawful.
We need investment in patient centric coroner’s services. A patient should have their rights respected even when dead. There is a great need to train medical personnel who conduct post-mortems on how to write about the cause of death, injuries, and any adverse pathology related to the death, sensitively and in a personal way.
Lastly and most importantly, it is incumbent upon the coroner and the police to ensure that they show dignity, respect, and sensitivity towards the patient as if they were alive and sitting in the dock. If they don’t feel the presence of the patient, rest assured that their family and friends do.

Abstract:The number of clinical trials that relate to patients with cancer of the head and neck is growing. Patient-reported outcomes, which are rarely the primary outcome, are now an important component, and in this structured review to identify and report the characteristics of the questionnaires that have been used in these trials, we summarise the findings reported. We searched several online databases using the key terms: head and neck oncology, head and neck surgery, reconstruction, clinical trials patient-reported outcomes, questionnaires, quality of life (QoL), validated instruments, and patients’ satisfaction. We screened 1342 papers to collect information about the topic of the paper, sample size, selection criteria, main advantages and disadvantages of the patient-reported outcome used, and if it was used in conjunction with another measure. A total of 54 were eligible, and from them we identified 22 questionnaires. The primary reason for using a questionnaire was its relevance to the focus of the paper, such as xerostomia, pain, or swallowing. To allow the experience of patients to be the focus of the primary outcome in a clinical trial, we recommend that the measures used should be appropriate, reliable, valid, responsive, precise, interpretable, acceptable, and feasible. The trials used validated questionnaires, but the patient-reported outcome measures tended not to be the focus. There is merit in such measures being the primary outcomes in future trials and these should be designed around an explicit hypothesis.

I received an email on Dec. 28th from the regional MVP Lead informing me that I’ve been re-awarded as Microsoft MVP again (January – December 2007). It’s my 4th consecutive year award with Microsoft MVP Program. I’m actually surprised to receive the early re-award notification because it is not the usual date to know the status but I’m *guessing* that the reason behind the early notification on the award status is the coming soon event for Microsoft MVPs called MVP Global Summit (March 12 – 15, 2007) in which Mr. Bill Gates will deliver the keynote. The early notification will allow MVPs to prepare for the summit… I *guess*. Whatever the reason, I’m happy for I’m re-awarded as Windows Security MVP.
Thanks to fellow MVPs, to the MVP Lead Cathy Lee (also to my former MVP Leads Melissa Travers, Jerry Bryant, Emily Freet), to the MVP Program management team for the support and benefit and to the whole team at Microsoft that makes MVPs experience with the program an exciting one. Thanks also to the Product Groups at Microsoft for listening to the feedbacks that we are sending to them. Thanks to MSDN Team for the susbcription. Thanks to Ms. Susan Bradley for this blog page at her msmvps.com. Thank you also to Calendar of Updates team and friends for the continous support in keeping users informed on security for PC and Internet. Last but not the least, thanks to friends and team-mates at Gladiator Security Forums, CNET forums, Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals and its members and to software authors for great work in helping users and full support that I received on many incidents. There are many more security forums to mention! but I better stop as it is going to be a long one ROFL. We are all friends because we have same goal and that is to have a safe and enjoyable computing. | <urn:uuid:d16bff7e-ec4c-435a-92f3-d8c02b2c3d39> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blogs.msmvps.com/donna/2006/12/29/re-awarded-as-microsoft-mvp/ | 2023-10-04T19:59:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.960893 | 408 |
Yes, Santa, there really is a Virginia...
I've decided my recurring insomnia is caused by the reverse-Christmas effect. Supposedly, children eagerly go to bed early Christmas Eve because they're trying to make Christmas Day come sooner. Me, I find myself staying up late, even though I'm tired, in an attempt to put off the next day's arrival. I'm took off work yesterday; maybe that will help. (The bad news is, that means I have to go in to work today.)
Sad thought -- several people were in tonight; some had worked all weekend.
Week 7 of the couch to 5k. Can you believe I'm in the seventh week of this thing??? (Yes, that question does call for multiple question marks.)
It's odd -- even though I ran indoors this time (fog so thick I couldn't see across the street), it still feels like I ran at a faster pace this time. Knowing that I could run for that long made me curious to see if I could pick up the speed a bit. | <urn:uuid:a49652e7-a16f-4c36-aad0-5b157291a4da> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blogsheesh.blogspot.com/2008/12/reverse-christmas-insomnia.html | 2023-10-04T19:52:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.988322 | 220 |
If it's Friday, it's time for Hugh... oh hell, it's ALWAYS time!
Quote du jour: I am of the firm belief that everybody could write books and I never understand why they don't. After all, everyone speaks. Once the grammar has been learnt it is simply talking on paper and in time learning what not to say. - Beryl Bainbridge
Site du jour: This site probably would appeal only to people who like snark or who like writing that pays attention to things like spelling, grammar, and diction ... so you'll understand why I liked it. Reasoning with Vampires. The blogger parses the Twilight books according to the rules of English grammar. Funny.
Exercise du jour: 2 miles jogging at an easy, relaxed pace -- my knees have been bothering me since I got on that dratted bike. I think it must need a tuneup or something like that. I mean the bike needs a tuneup. Unless there are tuneups for knees.

Amazing! I love this product, my wine cellar looks amazing and everyone asks me about it. Great quality and fast service.

Why Choose Floor-to-Ceiling Wine Racking?
To Install In Front of Glass
Glass wine cellars or wine walls are more popular than ever! Floor-to-ceiling mounted wine racks are necessary when you can't mount into glass. They also create a beautiful display looking through the glass AND into the cellar.
To Install In Front of a Textured Wall
Have a stone wall or other uneven/textured wall cladding ? Floor-to-ceiling mounted wine racking saves the day! Preserve delicate tiles, save mega-hours on installation and make your creative wall cladding possible when nothing anchors into it.
To Create a Floating Effect
Floor-to-ceiling mounted wine racking systems create the illusion of wine bottles floating in air, especially with minimalist solutions such as Float wine racking.
Like wine pegs but can't mount to the wall?
Vino Post & Plates - Floor to Ceiling Mounting System for Label View Wine Pegs
This product includes one vertical mounting post for ceiling heights up to 10 feet, mounting plates and bolts for connecting your Vino Pins label view wine pegs (wine pegs sold separately).
Choose this vino series, floor-to-ceiling mounting post when you love the look of wine pegs but can’t or prefer not to install into the wall. Just a couple screws into the floor and ceiling are all you’ll need!
Space the mounting plates on the post however you like. Choose more mounting plates for a tighter bottle spacing and higher storage capacity, or fewer plates for a more spaced-out display.
Attach mounting plates to any side of the vino post (eg. Mount to opposite sides of the mounting post for 2-sided glass displays where you want to see bottles on both sides).

An Intimate Glen Oaks Ceremony for Anne and Chris
Chris and Anne had their hearts set on eloping in Big Sur, with a specific venue in mind. But because of the Soberanes Fire, mudslides, flooding, and difficulty in securing wedding site locations in the area, I stepped in and offered an alternative setting.
Planning an elopement from a distance can be tricky, especially if you’re not familiar with the area. It’s always good to play it safe and consult with a local, experienced expert who knows the region and venues, including the best “secret” spots for ceremonies.
I advised Chris and Anne to consider Glen Oaks as their wedding site; it offered the private redwoods setting that appealed to them and provided easier accessibility with the many closures in the Big Sur area. As it turned out, my suggestions and planning prevented a disaster on their wedding day. Their original choice for the ceremony was forced to evacuate guests on the day of Chris and Anne’s wedding because of another mudslide.
Blue Sky Elopements has an exclusive arrangement with Glen Oaks. We are allowed to perform weddings in a gorgeous creekside setting on the property when no other events are currently scheduled, if the couple books a cabin with them. This agreement helped make it possible for Chris and Anne to marry in Big Sur with the least amount of stress and the smallest chance of disaster on their wedding day.
“Operation Big Sur elopement was a success!!” wrote Anne and Chris after the wedding. “We’re officially hitched. It all worked out and was absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for all your help and guidance in making our special day happen. It certainly was a wild ride!” | <urn:uuid:bc7a83ff-2aa9-4cff-95ae-a363b3105751> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://blueskyelopements.com/blog/an-intimate-glen-oaks-ceremony-for-anne-and-chris/ | 2023-10-04T21:02:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.96127 | 367 |

Back pain is a growing concern in the modern world. One half of all Americans admit to having back pain signs annually. Though many might associate back pain with the older generation, it is not something that affects only the senior population. Pain in the back impacts individuals of any ages, from teens to the elderly. Most people will undoubtedly have pain in the back at the very least once in their lifetime. Numerous back pain sufferers seek alternatives to medications to eliminate their discomfort. That's where the lumbar cushion comes in.
Research has revealed that most instances of neck and back pain are mechanical or non-organic. It means they are not caused by severe clinical conditions (such as arthritis, fracture, or even cancer cells). The majority of causes of pain in the back originated from:
- different strains (lifting something improperly or making a sudden and uncomfortable movement);
- posture (such as standing or sitting for extended periods or straining the neck onward while driving or using the computer).
Primarily, neck and back pain is generally caused by something usual that we do to ourselves, commonly without realizing it.
Low-back pain costs Americans at least $50 billion in health care expenses each year. If you were to add lost incomes and decreased productivity, that figure would undoubtedly rise to more than $100 billion. Neck and back pain is one of the most typical reasons people go to the physician or skip work, as well as it is a leading root cause of impairment worldwide.
What Causes Pain In The Back?
Since the back is a complex structure of bones, joints, ligaments, and muscles, various problems can trigger back issues. For example, you could sprain ligaments, strain your muscles, rupture a disk, or irritate a joint. You have most likely come across or know someone who had back pain triggered by sports injuries or accidents.
However, it is not always such a dramatic cause. Even the simplest of movements can have painful outcomes, such as bending to pick up a pen. It certainly does not help if you have pre-existing problems, such as arthritis, poor posture, being overweight, and mental stress and anxiety. Every one of these can complicate pain in the back.
Lumbar refers to your lower back, the lower spine, or its surrounding area. It contains five vertebrae in the lower part of the spine in between the ribs and pelvis. Tiny discs cushion the bones (vertebrae) that form the backbone. These discs are rounded and flat, with a durable, external layer. This layer surrounds a jellylike material (the nucleus). These discs are located between each vertebra in the spinal column and function as shock absorbers for the spinal bones.
Thick tendons connected to the vertebrae hold the pulpy disc material in place. Of the 31 pairs of back nerves and roots, five lumbar and five sacral nerve pairs link beginning in the lower back area. Therefore, the lumbar part of the back requires a lot more observation and awareness and, reasonably, more protection.
The Lumbar area is one of the most vulnerable to wear and injury. That's why we must preserve a healthy way of living and do what we can to protect our back. Lumbar Support helps with having the all-natural inward contour of our lower back while sitting. It often refers to devices created to correct your lumbar posture. These tools help to maintain the alignment of your upper back, shoulders, neck, hips. For individuals that work in the office or sit all the time, back assistance is essential.
Working long hours in a chair might worsen your posture. This will make you slouch and also hunch over while you are sitting at your work desk. Sitting for a long time boosts the pressure on the soft tissues, joints, and discs, causing muscle tension and pain in your lower back and legs. That does not sound like a fantastic posture. So what is the proper posture for sitting and standing?
Seat Cushion Memory Foam
If you spent most of your work time sitting, this device is for you! Probably, after a long productive day, you might feel discomfort in your back and butt. So that you could fell tremendous and have no aches, you can use our Seat Cushion Memory Foam. It does not only provide comfort at the hardest surface but also corrects posture and helps with your sciatic nerve pain, arthritis, or scoliosis.
What Is Good Posture?
Posture is the position in which you hold your body upright against gravity while standing, sitting, or lying down. The correct posture requires:
- great muscle flexibility;
- normal motion in the joints;
- strong postural muscles;
- a balance of muscles on both sides of the back;
- awareness of your very own posture (as well as the understanding and ability to correct posture as needed).
Essentially, appropriate posture is when you can stand straight and keep your shoulders parallel to the ground. This is vital when sitting at your desk at work. Human bodies were designed to stand and not sit. So to keep the correct posture while sitting, you should always be aware of your body positioning.
When sitting at a work desk, posture should start with:
- shoulders over hips,
- joints bend to 90 degrees,
- knees bent to 90 degrees
- feet flat on the floor.
Your computer monitor needs to be at eye level. Remember that your head position should include ears aligned with your shoulders. The computer mouse should be close enough that the arm joint remains in a bent setting. This seems like quite a lot, right?
It is very challenging to preserve proper pose while seated because the lumbar spine and the large muscles in the lower back have to work more to sustain the appropriate curvature and the back's alignment. Sitting for long periods makes the body tired.
Since the human body wasn't developed to sit for extended periods, the muscular tissues holding the back become weak when they are compelled to keep the spinal column in the sitting position for long. The upper back and the head often tend to move on to compensate these weakening lumbar muscles. This leads to the common tendency to slouch as well as lean forward in your chair. This can trigger a bend in your back that will put a lot more stress on the muscles and ligaments that hold your backbone in place.
Bad posture can also inhibit your blood circulation. This meant that your body is unable to repair itself and obtain oxygen to muscles and organs. In time, bad posture can lead to a variety of health problems, including chronic migraines, neck and back pain, and shoulder discomfort. If this discomfort is not addressed, sitting in an office chair for years can spread pain from your back to your shoulders and neck.
One more way bad posture causes pain in other muscles and joints is that it forces your shoulder and neck muscles to compensate for your back muscles' weakness. This puts a significant strain on your neck and shoulders.
Poor posture, slouching especially, might even cause tailbone pain. Tailbone pain occurs in or around the bony structure at the spinal column's bottom. This discomfort can feel dull and achy. It typically becomes sharp throughout certain activities, such as sitting, rising from a seated standing position, or prolonged standing.
Fortunately, the lumbar support cushion's invention implies that everybody can live their life without the anxiety of pain in the back.
Lumbar Support: The Solution To Back Pain
Lumbar support can be the solution to all these concerns. Though there are several ergonomic and spinal support products, one of the very best and most valuable lower back support sources can come from a lumbar cushion. Right here are five reasons why using a back and lumbar support pillow will reduce your back pain.
- Promotes a Healthy Posture
A lumbar pillow can help improve posture while sitting. This is life-changing and miraculous to those of us who must sit at a computer work desk for long periods. Generally, the lumbar pillow will help relieve and reverse back pain caused by bad posture. It does this by helping you maintain your posture while you sit. It also helps to straighten your spine. This will help in taking weight and stress off your lower back and helping to redistribute it evenly.
Standard chairs do not provide the additional back support needed to improve posture. However, inserting a lumbar back support pillow will help you realign your spine and provide your body with a mold of how your back must naturally curve.
- Helps Achieve Correct Spine Alignment
The correct spinal alignment will only occur when you sit upright with your shoulders back when sitting. All 3 standard back curves (cervical curve, thoracic curve, lumbar curve) must be present while sitting. Your feet should be flat on the flooring with your knees bent at a 90-degree angle. Your elbow joints need to also be bent at 90 degrees with your mouse and typing utensils within easy reach.
As stated before, maintaining poor spine alignment for extended periods can cause muscle fatigue, tightness, and discomfort. A lumbar support pillow will help to support your spinal column and back muscle mass to combat this. It will make sure that you can maintain the excellent spinal alignment all the time without the fear of wearing out your muscles or falling into the bad habit of slouching or hunching.
- Prevents Chronic Back Pain
When you sit for a prolonged period, leaning forward or backward will boost tension on the soft tissue, joints, and discs. This can cause muscle strain and pain in your lower back and legs. If you work at a non-active or desk job, you have an increased risk of developing pain in the back. This is particularly true if you have pre-existing back problems, bad posture, or sit all the time in a chair with poor back support.
Using a lumbar support cushion will help assist the all-natural inward curve of your lower back. In doing so, the back support cushion will assist in maintaining your appropriate back positioning. It will help keep correct posture that will certainly decrease the potential beginning of back strain and pain.
- Increase Blood Flow to Reduce Extremities
Individuals that spend lots of time sitting are at risk of circulation and mobility issues. Sitting for prolonged durations, especially without proper stance, will certainly exhaustion the muscles. It will also compress the blood vessels responsible for providing muscles with blood. This can cause typical circulation problems, such as numbness in the extremities, throbbing or stinging discomfort in your arm or legs, and muscle aches. In time, poor circulation and decreased blood circulation in your extremities can likewise create nerve or tissue damage.
To prevent poor blood circulation, you have to ensure that you are sitting with correct posture and spinal alignment. This will help keep the blood and nutrients flowing into your muscles and organs. A top high-quality lumbar support pillow will provide all this to you.
- Compact and Easy to Traveling With
There are several ergonomic options meant to help with lower back pain. Most of them include back support of some kind. Nonetheless, unlike the back support pillow, these ergonomic options are often stationary and have to be left behind when you leave a house or job.
Among the benefits of using a lumbar support pillow is its ease of transportation. You can use the back support pillow at work, in your home, and on the commute. You can take it with you wherever you go, without the need for further adjustment than strapping the cushion to the chair you are using and going from there.

About the Author of The House on Mango Street PDF
Summary of The House on Mango Street PDF
Esperanza Cordero, a little Chicana girl, spends a year of her life in The House on Mango Street pdf with her parents, three brothers, and other family members.
They live in a poor Chicago area. Esperanza, the narrator, introduces the novel by describing how her family first came to live on Mango Street.
The family had travelled around a lot before they made their new home, a small, dilapidated house with crumbling red bricks.
The family has been moving about from place to place while continually longing for their own home, which they see as the promised land.
It is not the promised land of their fantasies when they eventually arrive at the house on Mango Street pdf, which is, at last, their own abode.
The parents’ dejection is overridden by their assurance that this is just a temporary stop on the way to the promised house and not the end of their relocation.
Esperanza expresses scorn for her new home because it is not a “genuine” house like the ones she has seen on TV, despite the fact that the house on Mango Street pdf was a major improvement over her family’s previous residences.
Esperanza frequently imagines herself living in a white, wooden home with a sizable yard and numerous trees.
She constantly expresses her desire to leave Mango Street because she finds it oppressive. In order to convey her sentiments, she starts writing poems.
Esperanza begins the book by going into great detail on the specific quirks and traits of her relatives and peculiar neighbours.
Her descriptions paint a picture of the neighbourhood and give instances of the several powerful people that live nearby.
She talks about times she spent with her younger sister, Nenny, including one time when they went for a neighbourhood parade while hanging out with their friends Rachel and Lucy while wearing high heels.
Alicia, a promising young college student with a deceased mother, and Marin, a girl who spends her days after her younger cousins, are two other older females she befriends in the neighbourhood.
Esperanza draws attention to pivotal or insightful times in her life as well as the lives of those in her community.
She tends to concentrate on incidents that highlight their challenges, such when Esperanza’s aunt Lupe passes away or Louie’s cousin got arrested for car theft.
The story illustrates Esperanza’s maturing and forming her own viewpoint of the world as the vignettes go on.
Esperanza grows physically, mentally, and sexually as she eventually reaches adolescence.
These modifications cause Esperanza to detect and appreciate male attention.
She instantly becomes friends with Sally, a pretty girl who dresses provocatively and uses a lot of makeup.
Sally is unable to leave their home because of the physical and intensely religious behaviour of her father.
Esperanza is raped by a group of men after Sally abandons her for a boy at a carnival, endangering their friendship.
Esperanza describes more assaults she has suffered, such as the time an older man forced a kiss on her lips during her first job.
Esperanza’s unpleasant encounters and observations of the neighborhood’s women, many of whom exhibit persistent male dominance, only strengthen her resolve to leave Mango Street.
Esperanza doesn’t understand how her experiences on Mango Street have impacted who she is or that she will always carry those memories with her,
even if she moves on, until she meets Rachel and Lucy’s aunts, the Three Sisters, and they tell her fortune.
Esperanza makes a promise at the book’s conclusion that she will come back after leaving to support the folks she has left behind. | <urn:uuid:824ed2e8-cbb2-453a-a305-507b2dfccf3a> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://booksguidance.com/the-house-on-mango-street-pdf-free-download-2022/ | 2023-10-04T19:58:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.963014 | 1,136 |

VSTO Add-In installation woes29 Aug 2008
Update, Oct 12, 2009: if you are looking for a way to install a VSTO add-in with multiple dll, I found out there was a better solution here.
I just completed my first real-life VSTO project, and I am officially a convert: I can do everything I did in VBA, using mature languages like C#, and the comfort of the Visual Studio development tools.
Everything has not been smooth, though. I struggled quite a bit initially with deployment, a problem which just does not exist with VBA. However, after some digging, I came across this great post, which provides comprehensive step-by-step guidelines on setting up an add-in project for Office 2003.
At that point, I thought my issues were over, and I just cruised along, happily coding in C#. And then I decided that I would extract the logic of my calculation engine in a separate dll, which I would reference in my Excel add-in as a “satellite assembly” – and had a bad surprise. On my development machine, everything worked beautifully, and when I ran the installer on a clean machine, it installed my add-in without any complaint (The satellite dll was even added to the add-in folder), but somehow, the add-in did not run. No error message, no indication of a problem, but where I expected my dll to perform calculations, nothing happened.
Before getting into how I resolved the problem, a quick word on why I thought this would be a good idea to separate the business logic in its own dll. I had two motivations to do that: reuse, and testability.
There is nothing wrong per se in keeping all your code in the add-in project. However, imagine you build a calculation engine which could be re-used in other projects. If all your code is in the add-in project, you would have to copy/paste the code file into the other project, and to painfully change namespace and references all over the place, to integrate it in the new project. This is very unpleasant – and you will have to do it every time you create a new project. On top of this, if you end up finding a bug in your code (this happens, even to the best of us), you will have to manually change the code in all projects. By contrast, if your business logic is nicely separated in a dll, the only thing you need to do is to reference that dll in any project that uses it, and you are done; and if you find a bug, you need to fix it in one place only, and re-reference the updated dll, and you are done. No code duplication, minimal manual work: much better.
The other issue is testability. I am a unit-test fanatic, and like to build tests as I go, adding tests hand in hand with code, and leveraging the refactoring tools of Visual Studio. I also like to separate the tests from the project itself, so that I don’t have to ship my tests with my product. To do that, I typically add a second project to the solution, which contains only unit tests, and references the main project. The problem here is that because of the technology behind VSTO projects, you cannot reference the VSTO project in your unit test project. You have to do one of two things: referencing the add-in dll, or building the tests in your main project, i.e. shipping them included with your product. And if you reference the dll, you lose all Visual Studio refactoring support, and your whole test-driven development cycle becomes very painful. That’s not good. So what can you do about it? It took me some time to figure it out, but the solution is actually relatively easy. The post mentioned earlier has a small-print caveat:
This article makes the following assumptions about the project that you will deploy: • There is only one customization assembly; there are no other referenced or satellite assemblies deployed with the solution.
The issue is that in order for your add-in to work with your “satellite assembly”, i.e. your dll, you need to explicitly grant security trust to that dll as well. How do you go about that? The procedure is fairly simple, and follows the same general lines described to grant security to the add-in assembly. I assume that you already have set your project up so that you have the add-in project, the SetSecurity project, and your add-in deployment project in place.
I assume also that you have referenced a dll in your add-in project – in my case, the AddInEngine dll.
Right-click on the deployment project (in my case, ExcelAddInDemoSetup), and select View > Custom Actions. If you followed the guidelines provided by the post I reference, you should see 4 “folders” Install, Commit, Rollback and Uninstall, each of them containing one item “Primary output from SetSecurity (Active)”. Right-click “Custom Actions” > Add Custom Action, and select “Application Folder” in the combo box; Click “Add Output”, “SetSecurity” and “Primary Output”. At that point, you should see that each of the 4 folders now contains 2 “Primary output from SetSecurity (Active)”. I recommend that you rename the ones that have just been added to something like “Primary output from SetSecurity for AddInEngine (Active)”, so that you know what’s what.
The procedure now is identical to the one you followed to grant security to the add-in dll itself. The CustomActionData field for the original Custom Action granting security to the add-in dll looked like this:
/assemblyName="ExcelAddInDemo.dll" /targetDir="[TARGETDIR]\" /solutionCodeGroupName="MyCompany.ExcelAddInDemo" /solutionCodeGroupDescription="Code group for ExcelAddInDemo" /assemblyCodeGroupName="ExcelAddInDemo" /assemblyCodeGroupDescription="Code group for ExcelAddInDemo" /allUsers=[ALLUSERS]
In the Custom action you just added, simply replace “ExcelAddInDemo.dll” by the name of your satellite assembly, so that your CustomActionData field looks something like:
/assemblyName="AddInEngine.dll" /targetDir="[TARGETDIR]\" /solutionCodeGroupName=" MyCompany.AddInEngine" /solutionCodeGroupDescription="Code group for AddInEngine" /assemblyCodeGroupName="AddInEngine" /assemblyCodeGroupDescription="Code group for AddInEngine" /allUsers=[ALLUSERS]
Do the same substitution in the Rollback and Uninstall; at that point, you should see something like this, and you are set to go!
If you have multiple dlls referenced, you will have to grant security to each of them individually, which is a bit tedious. Hopefully, I can find a way to automate that process down the road…

Our school council help to raise funds and make important decisions. School Council is made up of parents and children from every class. We meet every term and have a meeting around a huge table.
What does a school council do?
A school council does a number of things:
- The school council meets every half term to discuss and sort out problems. These may include things such as, behaviour and rewards of pupils and ideas for fundraising events.
- Members of the school council will be responsible for carrying out the ideas that have been agreed, such as planning an activity, writing an article, or meeting with Mrs Oxborough to share ideas.
What is a school council?
A school council is group of students who are elected by their class to represent the views of all pupils and to improve our school.
Each year, every class will elect either 2 representatives to be members of the school council and they will then receive their purple hoodies.
What makes a good one?
A good school council is one that represents the views of all students and gets things done.
These are some things that make a council effective:
- regular meetings
- good communication between representatives and their class
- smaller groups (subcommittees) working on specific events or issues
Wickersley Partnership Trust Student Council
Wickersley Partnership Trust recognises the importance of listening and responding to ‘student voice’ to help shape improvements to the school.
Each Trust school has a representative group of students (School Councillors), elected by their peers, who form the ‘School Council’. They play an active role in school – organising events, raising issues and representing the views of their peers with Senior Leaders in the school.
Each School Councillor runs an ‘election campaign’ annually and their classmates vote for their new class representatives – this is democracy in action!
Wickersley Partnership Trust believes School Councils develop its core values including cooperation, mutual respect and a commitment to diversity and equality.
Wickersley Partnership Trust has a ‘Trust Council’ which has elected representatives from each of the school-based Councils, likewise, they help shape improvements to the Trust.
The Trust Council meets once every half term at rotating venues across the Trust. During these meetings, the students discuss Trust priorities – what’s going well already, and what we could do better in our schools and School Councils.
Charity fundraising is a key aspect of the Trust Council too – the Representatives come up with joint ideas on how we – as a Trust – can ramp up our charitable efforts.
At the end of each meeting, the Trust Council sets an agenda for the School Councils and how they’re going to move forward with their fantastic new ideas.
All minutes from the meetings will be shared with the Student Body by Trust Council Representatives and on Wickersley Partnership Trust’s website.

Buckley Day Camp is Proud to be Accredited by the American Camp Association!
The American Camp Association is a community of camp professionals dedicated to enriching the lives of children and adults through the camp experience. A cornerstone of the ACA’s efforts is its Accreditation Process – a way of grading how camps are doing. The standards against which camps are measured ensure that each camp complies with approximately 300 distinct health, safety, and program-quality benchmarks. Beyond a state’s basic licensing requirements, ACA Standards address specific areas of programming, personnel, health care, emergency response, management practices, and youth development. Standards are applied to all activities in camp including aquatics, horseback riding, adventure and challenge activities, and travel and trip programs.
The ACA collaborates with experts from The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Red Cross, and other youth service agencies to assure that current practices at your child’s camp reflect the most up-to-date, research-based standards in camp operation. Camps and ACA form a partnership that promotes growth and fun in an environment committed to safety.
ACA Accreditation is the best evidence parents have of a camp’s commitment to a safe and nurturing environment for their children. ACA Accreditation means that your child’s camp cares enough to undergo regular reviews of its operation. Accreditation involves evaluation in the categories of food service, transportation, health care, management, staffing, and programming. Additional information on what is entailed in accreditation can be found here. | <urn:uuid:41c21307-a234-4de5-bb99-6336c8197cbe> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://buckleycamp.com/about-us/aca-accreditation/ | 2023-10-04T20:56:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.942903 | 312 |
Like most homeowners, you likely have homeowners insurance because it helps protect your investment (along with the fact that your mortgage lender requires it). Homeowners insurance covers your home and possessions in certain situations, including natural disasters, theft and fire. Your policy may cover your broken furnace too, but only under certain circumstances.
TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)
Whether your broken furnace is covered by your homeowners insurance policy is dependent upon the circumstances in which it became broken. Typically, normal wear and tear is not covered; however, damage due to fire, theft and natural disasters is.
Furnaces and Policies
While homeowners insurance policies vary by state and company, they generally do not cover systems and appliances in the home that break due to age or normal wear and tear. This means that if your furnace broke due to age and wear, insurance will not cover it. Insurance often will provide coverage in cases of natural disaster, fire, or theft, though. If your furnace is broken or destroyed in one of those situations, your insurance company may pay to repair or replace it.
Coverage for Breakdown
Mechanical breakdown is not a covered cause of loss in most insurance policies, but many companies offer such coverage that you can add to your policy. This helps pay for equipment in your home that may break down because of age, wear and tear or mechanical failure. Coverage may include your furnace, air conditioning, water heaters, ventilation systems and even pool or spa equipment.
While your homeowners insurance may not cover the repair or replacement of your furnace, a home warranty likely will. The warranty acts like an insurance policy but is specific to appliances and systems in your home that are generally not covered by other insurance. If your furnace needs repairs, the home warranty company will provide a contractor who will repair or replace it when you make a valid claim. There may be exclusions or special requirements, so read your warranty thoroughly.
Furnace Causes Damage
Your homeowners policy may not cover your furnace, but it likely will cover damage caused by a broken furnace or household accident involving the furnace. For example, if a malfunctioning furnace caused a fire that significantly damaged your home, your homeowners policy likely would cover this damage. Likewise, if the furnace caused anyone physical injury, your homeowners insurance would provide liability coverage.

35% increase in visibility for leading fitness and leisure brand
Over 170 high quality links boost performance for Better
GLL is a not-for-profit charitable social enterprise committed to delivering a better quality of fitness and leisure, libraries and performing arts facilities for everyone. Their mission is to provide access to quality community facilities - and more - at a price everyone can afford.
GLL are a UK-wide organisation with over 258 centres from Carlisle to Cornwall, plus a presence in Belfast and Cardiff.
We have been working with GLL for over 5 years and we’ve seen incredible results historically but, due to the scale and potential within their organisation, a significant amount of organic opportunity remained available to us.
Post covid-19 lockdowns, health and wellbeing became a huge priority for GLL. These are notoriously difficult keywords to rank for in the fitness and leisure space; a blend of informational and transactional customer search intent means brands compete with direct competitors but also with publications as well.
We knew from our proprietary opportunity sizing project that high quality links were needed to help break into the first page of Google for gyms and fitness related terms.
In order to overcome this challenging landscape we needed to work closely with GLL’s internal PR team and their business stakeholders in order to tap into the resources within GLL, and maximise our link building impact.
Why we love this case study
- The integration with Better’s internal teams made us greater than the sum of our parts, which is what genuine partnership is all about.
- The variety of tactics this integration opened up meant their agency spend was more efficient and our work was more impactful.
- We used the client’s own data to create newsworthy stories which is a sure-fire way to ensure our campaigns are relevant and add value to the brand.
Cross team collaboration is now in full swing, we have shared ideation sessions to ensure alignment on ideas and through our multi-faceted approach we built 178 links between October 2021 and February 2022 with an average DA of 46.
These included new links from the likes of Grazia and the Huffington Post, alongside numerous top tier publications such as The Independent, Women’s Health and Stylist.
Our always on tactics reached a wealth of regional publications, such as The Londonist and Visit Lincoln, which are really effective at showcasing Better to current and prospective customers in their national locations, as well as extremely relevant fitness sites such as British Basketball League and Special Hockey International.
These links have translated into some brilliant results. The /gyms landing page saw a 35% increase in visibility, including getting the keyword “gyms”, with its monthly search volume of 1M, onto page 1 of Google!
The Weight Loss with Better Content and Digital PR collaboration saw 38 new keywords, with a monthly combined search volume of 13k, start to rank, and a sharp increase in visibility since the page went live which has driven over 9k in impressions in the 3 months since launch.
By working closely with Better’s traditional PR team and across our own Content and Digital PR specialisms we have been able to get even better results, faster than ever. Teamwork really does make the dream work!
Don't just take our word for it!
The past two years have been particularly challenging for the leisure industry, which has meant there has been an even greater need to maintain visibility of the Better brand.
Driving awareness and securing editorial features within relevant publications requires dedicated resource, the right expertise and strategy, alongside close collaboration by the relevant stakeholders.
Builtvisible’s Digital PR team has played a key part within the wider marketing mix, helping us to build our brand awareness and effectively communicate key messages. The team has often gone the ‘extra mile’ to secure coverage, working flexibly and reactively to seize opportunities and react to the wider news agenda.

metro marketing has the best real estate marketing services. We have the most knowledgeable staff that will help you find the right people to help you find your dream home. We have the best marketing tips to get the word out about your property.
Marketing is really all about the word. Your website should be well-written, easy to use, and present an honest picture of your property. We’ve been marketing in Phoenix for over 20 years and have found that the best marketing tips are really simple. Take pictures and post them on your website. Tell your friends about the property and put a link on your page that links to an online map of the property. These simple tips will help you and your team skyrocket your real estate marketing efforts.
The Phoenix metro area encompasses the suburbs of Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Tempe, and the region is about 30% Hispanic, which means that it takes a lot of Hispanic people to market all the places in the region. As a result, we have found that having a website that shows a nice picture of your property, links to maps of your property, and has a nice description of the property is an effective way to get people to call you and ask questions about your property.
It’s also a good way to attract potential renters and sellers. If you want to sell your property, you’ll definitely want to make it easy for people to see what the property looks like. Your website will probably have photos, and you’ll want to make it easy for potential buyers to see what the property looks like.
Picture your property, links to maps of your property, has a nice description of the property and if your property has a big yard you can also include big pictures of the yard in your description. Pictures really do help sell real estate.
The reality is that pictures are one of the two most important factors for a seller to consider with what their property looks like. Pictures can help sell your property and for a seller to find an agent, and they’ll sell your property for less time and money. Pictures can also help when trying to sell a property, and a lot of people find that pictures help them sell more quickly.
There are two ways to approach the subject of selling a house. You can either hire an agent to sell your property, or you can try to sell it yourself. Either way, you’ll need pictures. There’s no other way to sell a property than to display it in the best possible light. And it’s not just your own home that’s going to have pictures on it, but all of your other properties.
If you’re talking about a house, you can always hire an agent to sell it. But you can also sell it yourself. That way you can always have pictures, and you don’t have to worry about the stress of trying to sell a house. You can even sell your house to another agent.
Selling a home can be stressful. It doesn’t have to be. In fact, it probably is. If you have a house you’re ready to sell, you can always ask them to sell your entire property or just one or two rooms. You can even sell your house to a real estate agent if you don’t have to deal with real estate agents. Just ask for them to sell “your” house.
For sellers of homes, real estate is one of the most stressful aspects of selling a home. For a real estate agent, it’s just one more thing to deal with, which is why the internet has made it easy and affordable to sell your home. For the most part, its just a matter of sitting in front of a computer and looking over some listings, and the rest is just going to come to you. | <urn:uuid:cce07232-ab87-4ed8-8fef-8916da1adf74> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://bungapapanbandarlampung.com/metro-marketing-realty/ | 2023-10-04T20:43:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.961262 | 793 |
For our second Korean jimjilbang experience, we decided to go big. The Heomsimcheong Spa in the neighborhood of Oncheon claims to be the largest spa fed by a natural hot spring in Asia. The popular complex, which also bills itself the Grand Hot Spring, includes a full hotel, an excellent brewery on the bottom floor and of course, a full array of baths and saunas.
Later this week, I’ll be taking advantage of South Korea’s incredible medical tourism and having my eyes Lasik-ed. I only mention it because, throughout my life, I’ve encountered a mere handful of occasions where terrible vision has been a gift, rather than a curse. For example: bright lights look like glowing orbs of color, which can turn an evening cityscape or a Christmas tree into something abstract and beautiful. And people really are less likely to hit the guy wearing glasses.
But in the Heosimcheong Spa, I discovered another benefit of bad eyes. Without my contacts in or glasses on, the naked human body disappears into a single flesh-colored blur. I can see the human-sized shape, but no details… and the horrors of jimjilbangs are all in the details.
Heosimcheong cost ?8000 ($7.20) to enter, worth the price just for the bathing area, which is in a giant salon capped by an opaque dome. Under the soft natural light, we cooked ourselves in hot tubs, gasped for oxygen in steam saunas, sprang in and out of freezing ice baths, and sat underneath heavy waterfall streams that pounded our necks and shoulders. It was crowded, but the other people didn’t bug me much — this time, I was almost blind, and couldn’t tell if they were staring at me.
After paying an extra ?2000 apiece for funky pajamas that M.C. Hammer would have been proud of (and possibly designed), we entered the mixed-gender jimjilbang area, with relaxation and steam rooms. It was kind of a disappointment, with just a couple separate rooms and a very active, hyper population of kids running around. There was an igloo-shaped ice room, and a yellow steam room… nicely done, but there wasn’t much variety. After a nap and a facial mask, which was provided for free, we were done.
Well, we weren’t quite done. On the bottom floor of the complex is a gigantic brewery, serving German-inspired beers. At night, this is apparently a Busan hot-spot, with a Bulgarian band that sings in a variety of languages while intoxicated Koreans get down and dirty on the dance floor. Sadly, we missed this, but the beer was excellent. | <urn:uuid:2f2ed628-7de9-4ba5-b22a-ba5677769a4f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://busan.for91days.com/oncheons-heosimcheong-the-largest-spa-in-asia/ | 2023-10-04T21:00:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.957641 | 574 |
The track from Omeo Highway to Gill Creek forms a 4.5 km section of the AAWT almost half-way along its length. A BTAC crew had cleared the first 2.2 km section four years previously. The remaining section was heavily overgrown and had many fallen logs across it. Parks Victoria had identified it as a track much in need of clearing.
After a reconnaissance of the track six weeks previously, a team of 12 volunteers (including four who were new to BTAC) met up on Friday afternoon to camp at Big River Bridge Campground. On Saturday morning, we met the two rangers, walked the 2.2 km to the start of our work and began. There was plenty of work for our three chainsaws, two brush cutters and two hedge-trimmers. By the end of the first day, we had well passed the half-way point of our intended clearing and walked some 3.5 km back to the cars parked at Omeo Highway. Once back at our campsite, the rangers kindly cooked a barbecue dinner for us all on the fire.
On Sunday, after a 7:45am start, we were able to complete the clearing of the track down to Gill Creek, followed by the uphill walk back, carrying the tools and fuel bottles.
We are grateful for the efforts of the volunteers giving up their time and for their hard work, and to Parks for their support for the team and for generously providing dinner on Saturday night after a day’s work.

However, standing out in this crowded marketplace requires strategic planning, innovation, and robust marketing. This research-based article explores the key strategies to unlock success and boost your iPhone 15 case business.
Understand Your Target Audience

Are you aiming for a premium market with high-end designs or targeting a younger audience with more affordable, trendy cases? Researching demographics, buying behavior, and preferences will help tailor your products to meet specific needs.
- Utilizing Analytics: Tools like Google Analytics can provide deep insights into customer behaviors and preferences, helping you effectively align your products and marketing strategies.
Innovation in Design and Material

- Eco-friendly Materials: Sustainability is a significant trend, and offering biodegradable or recycled materials can set you apart from competitors.
Building a Strong Online Presence
- Website Optimization: A user-friendly and visually appealing website with clear product descriptions and easy navigation can enhance the shopping experience and increase conversion rates.

- Personalized Cases: Allowing customers to personalize their best iPhone 15 case with names, initials, or specific designs adds value and uniqueness to your offerings. It can foster customer loyalty and enhance word-of-mouth marketing.
Strategic Pricing and Discounts
Researching competitors’ pricing and understanding your cost structure will help determine a price that offers value to customers without sacrificing profit margins. Offering discounts during festivals or back-to-school seasons can boost sales and attract new customers.
Collaborations and Partnerships
Teaming with other brands, local artists, or influencers can increase your brand’s visibility and reach. Getting your products into retail stores can enhance your brand’s credibility and reach customers who prefer in-store shopping.
Customer Service and Relationship Management
Prompt responses to customer inquiries and addressing concerns can create a positive brand image. Offering loyalty points or referral discounts can encourage repeat purchases and turn customers into brand advocates.
Analyzing and Adapting

Unlocking success in the iPhone case business requires a multifaceted approach beyond merely offering a product. It involves a deep understanding of the market, a relentless focus on innovation, and a robust online presence. Strategies like personalization, competitive pricing, strategic collaborations, and exemplary customer service are vital in creating a differentiated brand that resonates with customers.

Custom Workflows, Estimating and Bidding Updates, and Enhanced Reporting Provide Deeper Insights to Project Teams
Procore Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: PCOR), a leading provider of construction management software, today announced platform enhancements that will deliver added flexibility and deeper insights for project teams. These innovations bring cross-platform insights with a new reports builder, and a new global workflow engine, which will improve the efficiency of estimating and bidding processes.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20211005005219/en/
The new Global Workflow Engine will allow customers to build custom approval workflows across the platform. (Graphic: Business Wire)
“For almost 20 years, Procore has been working to connect everyone in construction on a global platform, providing a single source of truth for customers around the world,” said Tooey Courtemanche, Procore founder and CEO. “We’re extending the value of our platform through investments in our preconstruction solution, a new global workflow engine, and a new report builder - to deliver further cross-platform insights for customers.”
Estimating and Bidding Innovations for Preconstruction Teams
Procore acquired Esticom in 2020. Estimating project costs is a critical workflow, and Esticom’s functionality is now fully integrated into the Procore platform as Procore Estimating. This provides tools for digital takeoff, estimating, building bid proposals - and is connected with workflows to the project budget, change management, and purchase order process.
