Pet Treats: Buyer Beware of These Sweet Snacks of Love
What is it about that can make even the most uncontrollable pet obey us in return for a little bit of something that tastes so great they can scarcely contain themselves? It's a fixing that is found in probably the most well known feline and canine treats. It's addictive, causes weight pick up and could at last abbreviate the life expectancy of your pet and it's normally known as sugar.
Kibble Crack
Much the same as people, pooches and felines can build up a sweet tooth and long for sugary snacks, which are basically garbage nourishment for pets. The sugar in some pet treats can make practically addictive-like desires that have earned them the name, 'kibble break'. Read the fixings name on your pet's most loved treats. In the event that any of the accompanying are recorded as one of the initial five fixings on the name, your pet's treats are doing them more much more mischief than great,Visit:CBD Pet Treats
Corn syrup
Sugar-loaded treats are one of the essential offenders behind the pet heftiness scourge and after some time can prompt intemperate weight pick up. An overweight pet can experience the ill effects of joint inflammation, diabetes and hypertension, any of which can abbreviate their life and effect your wallet because of more continuous visits to the vet.
Calories Count Too
Other than high sugar content, another worry with pet treats is the calorie tally per serving. Frequently not unveiled on the bundling, the vast majority of us are unconscious of what number of calories we're adding to our pets eat less by giving them treats. As per Marion Nestle, creator of Feed your Pet Right, if the treat bundle does not list calories, you ought to expect 3-4 calories for each gram, (i.e. a treat that is 3 grams/serving would be 9-12 calories for every serving). Treats should represent close to 10% of your pet's day by day calorie prerequisites to keep up their optimal weight. Some rawhide bites and bigger Greenies Dental Chews can contain 100 calories or more, which may far surpass the suggested 10% lead, contingent upon your canine's size and calorie necessities.
A New Marketing Gimmick
Treats are enormous business for the pet business and the most up to date showcasing trick is treats that advance sound advantages, for example, more advantageous hips and joints. There is no administration oversight or logical reason for these cases. At the point when Consumer Lab tried joint wellbeing supplements for puppies and felines they found that a famous treat, Dogswell Happy Hips Chicken Breast with Glucosamine and Chondroitin, contained just 6% of its guaranteed glucosamine and just 15.9% of its asserted chondroitin; sums excessively immaterial, making it impossible to give any guaranteed advantage.
Sound Options
With 88% of pooch proprietors and 68% of feline proprietors giving their pets treats as per the American Pet Products Association, we're not recommending pet guardians cut out this much-cherished custom. We do recommend the accompanying eight hints to guarantee your demonstration of adoration advances a sound pet:
Read the Ingredients Label: Pet treats with sugar, corn syrup, fructose, sucrose or dextrose in the initial five fixings ought to be stayed away from. An extremely regular filler in pet sustenances, maltodextrin, is another name to search for on the mark. It has a high glucose level, so it ought to be stayed away from in the event that it is an essential fixing.
Settle on Natural Sweeteners: Choose treats with fruit purée, molasses or nectar as a sweetening fixing on the off chance that you wish to enjoy your pet in a sweet treat.
Attempt Vegetable Dog Chews: Opt for all-normal vegetable-based canine bites produced using sweet potatoes over creature based rawhide bites. Some rawhide is high in calories and might be treated with chemicals and dye.
Consider Home-cooked or Naturally Moistened Cat Treats: Try giving your feline a little bit of cut up chicken or fish as a treat. On the off chance that you like to purchase bundled treats search for those soaked with vegetable glycerin as opposed to a compound humectant, for example, propylene glycol.
Attempt Fresh Fruit and Veggie Dog Treats: Opt for low-calorie vegetables or natural product as a treat for your pooch rather than bundled treats. Child carrots, cut-up apples and green beans are great decisions.
Try not to Rely on Treats with Health Claims: Discuss supplement alternatives with your veterinarian for your pet's afflictions as opposed to depending on treats that claim to give sufficient supplements to keep up a solid heart or joints.
Utilize VOHC-Approved Dental Chews: Establish a routine of honing great dental cleanliness on your pet and utilize treats affirmed by the Veterinary Oral Health Council, (VOHC), to clean your pet's teeth.
Figure out How to Read and Understand Pet Food Labels: Marion Nestle's book, Feed Your Pet Right , distributed in 2010, is an incredible asset for pet proprietors who need to better comprehend pet nourishment fixings and sustenance while additionally figuring out how to recognize solid pet sustenances with nutritious fixings from unfortunate pet nourishments.

In this MadBid Review we will be looking at the different types of social media portals customers can get in touch.
In our article about MadBid being social, we did not cover the feedback received from customers. So here is a rundown of what MadBid customers have been talking about in the past month on social media. You might think this article is a bit dangerous as it will show the company from our customers' perspective but, we want to be as transparent as possible so that you can have the right information when deciding if MadBid is the right shopping website for you.
MadBid is not like other auction websites that try to hound auction winners to post photos and hide any negative feedback so deep down that is takes 5 hours to get any real idea of what the company is like. We are a growing business, which means that our customer service department works constantly to ensure your enquiries are looked into swiftly which can be quite challenging with an increasing customer base. We also believe in human customer service, so when you give us a call and get through (apologies in advance for the silly music on the phone line and the confusing count-down timer, we are on it) you will get through to a representative that knows MadBid inside out and works with the whole team in the company (not in a call centre). You might also hear a few American accents, which is from our customer service representatives looking after customers in Canada, but the whole team works together and they are fully equipped to deal with your enquiries as quickly as possible.
In those rare weeks when everything piles together (5 buses in a row saying crops into mind), we as a company are thankful to have an active social media presence so that there are a variety of ways for customers to still get in touch. The last couple of weeks have been unusually busy for the customer service department and we can really see that in your reviews on our social media pages:
Paul was one customer that we have to apologise and commemorate for using every single social media place MadBid is active on to get his enquiry answered. Stacking up 9 tweets and 5 Facebook messages as well as additional private messages, we hope our replies across all your social media messages have given you enough information to answer your enquiry.
Also this month, MadBid tweeters seemed a little frustrated with the mass of customer service emails and phones lines that were pushed to the full capacity, enquiries were dealt between 1-2 working days, when on a usual day emails are answered within 6 hours. Also there seemed to be a bit of confusion about what happens to the credits spent in auctions. A few tweeters still seemed to have missed the Earned Discount feature that adds the full value of the credits spent in the auctions to your Discount section, so you can still purchase a variety of products on the website.
Over on the MadBid Facebook page, things were getting quite technical with customers sending messages about certain user's auction winnings and why people in Africa and USA are not allowed to participate in auctions. Also, we figured out a few technical glitches like the fact that our 'unsubscribe email' does not seem to work, thanks Carol, we are looking into it. Some great news came through however from winners in Italy that shared their winning gadgets on the MadBid Facebook page which was great to see.
Over on the MadBid Google Plus Page, the conversation was easy going. We spent a whole day milling around to find out more about our madbidders, what gets you up in the morning, what your budget would be if you were to buy a brand new car and of course we couldn't resist throwing in a few cute pet photos. We also had free credits give-away for auction winners who wanted to share their auction winnings on G+. Over on our MadBid G+ Community page, we got technical with the iMac auction and tried to guess at what price it would close but it's still running live, so gave up on the guessing.
We are planning to also do our first MadBid G+ Hangout session with video! Are there any questions you would like answered or would you like to get involved? Maybe this is how the future of customer service should be, creating hangouts to answer certain customer service questions, good , bad idea? Let us know.
And last but not least on our Pintrest we were pinning away our promotional banners that rotate on the MadBid homepage. Do you enjoy seeing them there every time you log in? If you don't like the banners what would you like to see there instead?
As always, we are continuously trying to innovate our business model and improve the customer experience on our website. If you would like to share your customer experience or thoughts of ways to make it better, we are all ears.
In the meantime do get in touch on any of our available social media channels for a chat or if you wish to exchange a few bidding tips.
We were also thinking of opening up an Instagram account just so that our madbidders can have a bit more of an insight of what goes on here in the HQ, do you think it's a good or bad idea? Let us know in the comments section below.

There's one weekend adventure I yearn for once the clocks have gone back and the sudden dark days have sparked a craving for Oatmeal Stout, Coffee Porter and Pudding Ale - and it's not in Kirklees or even West Yorkshire for that matter. For four days in mid-December Suddaby's Crown Hotel (below left), in the picturesque North Riding market town of Malton, puts it's rather large 'shed' to very good use indeed. With ample room for a hundred folk, some live music, plenty of food and no fewer than forty gantried real ales, this is without doubt my favourite winter beer festival. In fact if I had to chose just one festival a year to attend (God forbid!) this would probably be it!
Ideally an overnight stop in the Crown itself would make for the perfect weekend but with very few rooms, and availability at a premium during the festival, this isn't always an option. However a few hundred yards up Yorkersgate stands the mighty Talbot Hotel (right), a spacious (in fact enormous!), clean, comfortable (not to mention 18th century) home to a good night's kip and a monstrous breakfast - and all yours for the princely sum of £30 a night! Unbeatable value, and the very best way to start your build up to the festive season.
The links are all here so go ahead and treat yourselves to a relaxing couple of days in the beautiful heartland of Yorkshire a mere 10 minutes drive from stately Castle Howard (Brideshead) - oh and did I mention the beer shop where you can get all of Suddaby's ales to take home? - Christmas shopping made easy! (Now where's NYCC tourist board with that cheque!)
Suddaby's Winter Beer Festival runs from Thursday 13th - Sunday 16th December (map)

Restaurants are integrating technology as much as they possibly can. There is a lot of potential for this technology to get damaged or broken, but the folks at RapidXpres have the solution to this in their Toughpad series.
The handheld line of Toughpads can be quite "handy" in the restaurant environment, starting with the management team. Managers are constantly having to juggle several different tasks throughout their days. This could be answering emails from vendors or employees. It can be handling stock issues or even scheduling for their staff. They don't always have the time to go and sit down in front of a computer. Since they are always on the go, why not have a computer that can go with them.
These handheld devices can be used for their communications systems. It gives the person using it the freedom to answer emails, video chat and even form reports and graphics all with the simple touch of a hand. Managers can take the computers with them into storage rooms and check on inventory. Scanners on some of the devices will allow them to take exact counts on what's in stock or not. Managers can then take that information and deliver it directly to their distributors, which will make ordering and restocking much simpler.
These devices also have full Internet capabilities on them. This comes in quite "handy" in the world of social media. Managers, or any employee for that matter, can walk around and "tweet" specials or promotions at a moment's notice. For restaurants wanting to promote a dish, you can snap and edit a photograph and post it to your Instagram or Facebook page. Engage with an audience on social media and keep track of what is trending on each site. Having that ability at your fingertips is vital in a world where everything needs to happen now.
These devices can also be placed at counter tops or near registers. Emails and customer reviews can help make or break a business. Having one of these available for people who are ordering or paying their bill will allow them to enter their contact information into the restaurant's system. Promotions can be advertised and promoted on these systems and engage the customer base. Since they are handheld managers and employees can walk around and collect information from tables to enter into their database as well.
The Toughpads are also capable of replacing the pad and paper for wait staff. Imagine setting them up to take orders and have them sent directly into a kitchen cue. This can save time and money. Rather than having a server write orders down and then enter it into a separate system to get it to the kitchen, the process can be all in one.
These handheld Toughpads are durable, scratch and break resistant and have high processors. They come in a variety of styles and price points, making them a must have for restaurants and other businesses..

Hawthorn is reportedly poised for an off-season bonanza of trading with out of contract Sydney midfielder Tom Mitchell and Adelaide midfielder Brad Crouch, also out of contract, in their sights.
With an aging midfield of Luke Hodge, Sam Mitchell, Jordan Lewis and Shaun Burgoyne, the Hawks are keen to freshen up their midfield in the coming years to remain in contention for premierships.
The Hawks also have their eyes firmly set on Gold Coast Suns midfielder Jaeger O'Meara who is out of contract at the end of the season.
Sydney, as well as Mitchell's management, have put contract talks on hold until the end of the season as they assess their list.
Mitchell's manager Phil Mullen says his client would be prepared to move should the right offer come along.
"It's just a matter of what we agree to with the Swans — if we do agree. If we do that's great, but if not we'll look at other alternatives," Mullen told the Herald Sun
"It's about getting the right terms, wherever that happens to be. Hopefully it's at the Swans."
Crouch is wanted by the Crows but the Herald Sun understands that Crouch has become increasingly frustrated at the lack of senior opportunities this year.

Oh hey, friends. We're back with our second featured BIGSOUND Live artist tonight, the sublime Ali Barter! BIGSOUND Live tickets are still on sale, but they won't be for long. So if you want to be able to see incredible artists like Barter, Gang of Youths, Tired Lion and Ngaiire, you'd better head over to QMusic quick smart and get some. Now, read on and enjoy our chat with Ali Barter!
Performing as part of BIGSOUND Live 2015
Wednesday 9 September - 9:50pm @ The Zoo
Hey there, Ali Barter. Thanks for joining us! How's life treating you today?
Ali Barter: Heya! It's pretty good. I'm sitting in a cafe in London catching up on emails. Been traveling around Europe and writing songs in London. It was fantastic to see your name on the list of artists performing at this year's BIGSOUND Live event.
What are your thoughts on the BIGSOUND concept? Any acts you'll be keen to check out during the event?
Ali Barter: I think BIGSOUND is a great concept. It's important to a SXSW type conference in Aus. We have so much amazing music here and it allows industry from Aus and all over the world to come check us out! I have heard great things come to pass from playing BIGSOUND, like bands getting overseas booking agents - which then opens the door for them to tour in the UK or US. In terms of who I want to see… I'm really keen to see City Calm Down because I LOVE their sound. Also looking forward to Aldous Harding who is playing before me at The Zoo. Her voice is divine.
You'll be performing on September 9 at The Zoo! You have a short space of time to play for people who may not know you or your material well. So, how do you decide what songs you'll be playing on the night?
Ali Barter: All killer no filler!! We will just play the loudest, randiest songs!
We've been loving your new single 'Hypercolour'… especially the live version you made a video for. The song sounds like it was written when you were coming out of a particularly trying time. What's the story behind the song?
Ali Barter: It was written during a break up and then finished during a year I wasn't allowed to sing due to vocal issues. It was a shitty time and one that I really had to force myself to stop moping and get back on the horse. My partner Oscar kept pushing me to write when I wasn't allowed to sing, which was the best thing because otherwise I would have had all those words and feelings rolling around inside my head and I probably would have gone crazy. It's a bit of a mad song, I mean, it came from times of madness and despair. Which is always a bit of fun!
Have you got any other releases planned for this year we can look forward to? What about
touring plans? After you've hit up BIGSOUND, will you be heading out on the road for any other shows in 2015?
Ali Barter: Yes! I'll be launching my EP later in the year and playing some shows in Melbourne and Sydney, hopefully with a little run of regional solo shows too! There will be a support slot or two I'm sure as well.
What do you think makes a good songwriter? I ask, because you're really very good at that whole songwriting thing. Is there anything in particular that you draw inspiration from when it's time to start writing?
Ali Barter: I usually watch movies, write down words that evoke a feeling. I went to the Tate Modern in London and walked around listening to a playlist of songs and just wrote down anything that came to mind while looking at the works. I wrote quite a lot looking at the Mark Rothko paintings. They were really dark but beautiful. there was a Picasso that was great too. But thats the first time I've written from visual art. Usually its films or other music. I get into soundtracks big time.
I apologise for asking this question, because more often than not I get a, "why would you ask this question?" in response… which is probably why I keep asking it… but, if you had to pick five albums that have shaped who you are as a person (or if the zombie apocalypse happened and you could only grab 5 albums to keep with you forever), what would they be and why?
Ali Barter: I did this recently for my friend Justin Guppy who is starting a podcast for his blog 'Lost In Dopeness'.
The songs I picked were -
1. Malibu by Hole - Perfect combo of rock/pop/glam/grunge. I love the chords and lyrics, the picture the song paints. It was co-written by Billy Corgan who is a legend. I never get sick of this one.
2. Stand Inside Your Love by The Smashing Pumpkins - Ugh, just amazing. Epic, huge. I remember the first time I heard this song. I listened to it on repeat on my discman for days. I love how the chorus kicks up a gear the second time through. The drums and screaming guitars are just so good.
3. Glorybox by Portishead - from one of my favourite film soundtracks, 'Stealing Beauty'. This song is so sexy and timeless.
4. Crazy by Patsy Cline - This is my mum's favourite song. It was written by Willie Nelson and sung but the incomparable Patsy. It's just so sad but has that country way of lifting the song to a lilting sweetness. A timeless melody and subject.
5. Metal Heart (the Moon Pix version) by Cat Power - I love the guitar in the intro and the double tracked vocals sung super effortlessly. I just adore this song. I would say it's my all time. The lyrics are great 'be true cos they'll lock you up in a sad, sad zoo.' It's so simple and beautiful, sung by the disturbing and bewitching Chan Marshall.
Quick Hits:
If you could have one of your songs featured on any TV show, you would want it to be…
Ali Barter: OMG Made In Chelsea
If you weren't a musician, you would like to pursue a career in…
Ali Barter: Travel, I'm about to do it too! I'm taking over my mum's India tour company, 'Tagore Tours'… watch this space!
The first album you ever bought was…
Ali Barter: It was a compilation CD called Moods 2. It included 'Sweet Lullaby' by Deep Forest and the theme from 'The Mission' by Ennio Morricone.
Your dream music collaboration would be with…
Ali Barter: I love the production Justin Vernon did for the band Land Of Talk's album, Some Are Lakes. He just nailed it. Beautiful, honest and grungy. I'd love to work with him one day.
When they air the Ali Barter MTV 'Behind The Music' special in forty-two years, what will they say about you?
Ali Barter: She was a searcher… and a kook.
There's exciting times ahead for Ali Barter, with BIGSOUND Live an EP and more shows to come. And maybe some India adventures too! Thanks for the chat Ali and we'll see you at BIGSOUND!

Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship
The EGADE Business School Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship will bring students, entrepreneurs, corporations and investors together in an ecosystem that fosters innovation and entrepreneurship and generates important, complex knowledge.
We hope to have a strong impact on Mexico and Latin America's economic development through business growth, by attracting innovative startup projects and established corporations and linking them to investors and venture capitalists who can bring about financial returns. We also help entrepreneurs and large businesses to process public financial support for innovation projects. We support developed technologies in applied research centers, and we are a catalyst and transmitter of entrepreneurial knowhow and experience for EGADE Business School students.
We firmly believe that Mexico's potential for reaching new competitive indices lies in innovation. That is why we foster mechanisms that commit each of the entrepreneurial ecosystem players to a unique collaborative dynamic with high value added in Mexico. Students, mentors, investors, corporations, the government, startups, schools, and other organizations take an active part in creating value for entrepreneurs from their perspective through access to capital, networking, and knowhow.
The Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship will reach these goals through several high-impact projects and initiatives:
Monthly networking meetings through the Monterrey Investment Network, introducing startups/scale-ups to investors, corporations, and students.
Integration of a network of allied corporations that support innovative projects.
Student involvement in startups/scale-ups, as "entrepreneurs in residence," to strengthen their growth.
Lectures, panels, and workshops on private capital, corporate venture capital, innovation, intrapreneurship, and other topics related to entrepreneurial development.
Creation of private-capital-fund-generating programs.
Providing forums for large corporations to share their needs with the entrepreneurial community, to seek creative solutions to their technological needs and new markets to bring the creativity and dynamism of startups together with technological and marketing road maps in large companies.

First Impressions
If there were in the world today any large number of people who desired their own happiness more than they desired the unhappiness of others, we could have paradise in a few years.
Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
After spending, the day with dodgy evidence crates and snarky cleaners Tony couldn't muster a lot of guilt when he was seated across from Ari. He was lulled by the familiar surrounding- comforted by the fact that the atmosphere wasn't overly romantic- everything was intimate and elegant, but not so much so that there wasn't a reasonable number of groups dinning along with the single couples.
"What?" When his attention turned back to their table Tony found Ari watching him over his wine glass, fingers resting along the curving rim. Ari shook his head lightly, quirking a brow, before finally sliding his fingers around the bloom of his glass- sipping a little of the dark liquid.
"You're not usually this quiet." Tony baits- contemplating the menu though he already knows most of what's written there… though occasionally something creeps up on him- tonight it's the Alaskan crab leg soup- he's never been terribly fond of the little bastard's either, not since he was 10 and one latched onto his thumb.
"Really." He sets the glass back softly, leans back in his chair and Tony (slightly irritated) goes back to skimming through the menu
"You're usually- you know more arrogant too." It's not that he's trying to start a fight; it's just a matter of principal, pride too now. Ari manages to annoy him with minimal effort; he should be able to do the same, at least occasionally.
"It has been very- long day." He didn't look tired so much as sedate, toned down, 'a long day' giving him a casual air of indifference rather than that too fucked too care look that most people sported under the same circumstances.
"Fair enough." Tony said giving up his indignation, the upkeep on it was too expensive.
The conversation died down briefly as their waitress flounced back over, Ari helping himself to another glass of wine while they ordered- Tony himself was nursing a craving for rum, but decided that the last thing he needed was to get drunk- again.
"You look worn down yourself."
"Calling your dates worn down- how has that worked for you in the past." Tony sniped, playing with the cup of water by his fork to distract himself.
"Tony- I always find you attractive- even at 6 o'clock in the morning- when you're drooling rather artfully from the- left corner of your mouth. Regardless you seem overwrought." Tony hopes the drooling observation came from when he knows the other was in his apartment.
"I was not drooling."
"You were. I also get the impression that this frustration comes from your boss." He said casually and Tony almost choked on his water.
"I don't wanna talk about Gibbs." He says, once he's recovered.
"Nor do I." Ari says after a pause, shaking his head, expression, and tone a little puzzled as though he hadn't meant to bring it up.
"So- why did you become a doctor?" Tony takes a stab at some safer conversation after their plates have been set out in front of them- remembers it from somewhere in the file NCIS has... What he really wants to ask is why the other would agree to try'en take out Al Qaeda; but figures that that probably wouldn't be classed as a safe topic. Then he remembers Ari's mother as well.
"Which is not something you probably wanna talk about." He digs about for something else.
"You won't upset me Tony- my mother died a long time ago… and yes she was the reason I became a doctor- but it wasn't just to please her… The passion she showed for her work, how she would talk about it. I can remember being 5 years old and wanting to feel that way- about something."
Tony's a little annoyed when Ari insists on walking him to his door- it has a lifespan of about five seconds though- it's a nice night and Ari himself also starts telling bad jokes a block from the restaurant, something Tony finds incredibly unexpected. He also finds it unexpectedly delightful, the man/moth one particularly ridiculous.
"You tell anymore of those jokes and I swear the next chance I get I'm dumping a bucket of cold water over you just for laughs." He jumps a little when he turns back from his door and finds Ari standing behind him rather than at the bottom of the steps where he'd left him a minute ago.
"Really- whole bucket of water." He rambles.
"Tony-" He uses an almost parental tone.
"I'm going to kiss you." He says carefully and it's that precise moment that Tony realizes he's been backed up against the wall.
"I know." The sudden stab of panic he feels is usually reserved for when people tell him their going to shoot him.
He wonders briefly about the logistics of this- wonders if he should put his arms over Ari's shoulders, or around his waist, or maybe just not anywhere at all. He curses himself for being completely ridiculous- he'd kissed Gibbs after all… then he curses himself again for thinking about his boss at a time like this.
Then Ari's lips are against his own…
Tony hooks his arms around Ari's shoulders; he's even game enough to open his mouth when a slick tongue flicks over his lips, panic settling back to nothing. It's not earth shattering or life-changing and thank-fucking-Christ nothing ridiculous happens like his knees going weak- or any of the other garbage that they slather across every romantic flick. Their teeth don't do that annoying scraping thing, neither chokes on the others tongue, and also there's no appalling swamp of saliva.
It's good enough to have their hand clenching against the other's clothing because the irritating, burning need to breath has reared its ugly head and their not quite ready to part. In the dark, it's hard to tell but when they finally do- Tony's pretty sure there's black spots dancing in front of his eyes.
He leans against Ari's chest for a moment afterward- before settling back against the wall.
"Goodnight." He says after a long pause- when really, he wants to invite him upsets- but he's been down that road a lot and scarily he doesn't wanna head down there now.
Ari doesn't look disappointed anyhow; he grins and steps back down the small flight.
"Ari-" Tony watches him turn on the sidewalk, his smile still firmly in place.
"A friend of mine is… having a showing on Thursday- an art- thing… it's- she showing her art-" He actually pauses and bites his tongue in exasperation- when had it ever been this difficult to ask for a date.
"I promised her I'd go and it's probably going to suck- but you came with me- it would probably be a lot better." By the time Tony's finished, Ari's smile is a lot wider and Tony's swears that if he actually starts to laugh he's throwing his keys at him.
"What time is it?"
"Seven-thirty… at night…"
"I'll be here at seven."

Behind the look
Sporting jeans and a checked shirt, actress Jyothika's new look—released this week, for her upcoming film Magalir Mattum—has piqued our curiosity. A complete shift from the star's previous sari-clad, demure character in 36 Vayathinile, we catch up with the brain behind her styling, city-based Poornima Ramaswamy, who walks us through her busy schedule and the nuances of styling film stars.
Like family
Being actor Suriya's sister's classmate from kindergarten, for Ramaswamy the star couple is like family. "Jo anni (Jyothika) is the easiest artiste to style. In fact, both she and Saravanan anna (Suriya) are very simple in their approach. Since I never go over-the-top with my ideas, we are often on the same page—though I do often pull him out of his comfort zone and add some quirky touches (laughs)," says the self-taught designer, who was rejected twice when she tried to enroll at NIFT, but today goes to the institute as a guest lecturer. The stylist, who was also behind Suriya's leather-jacketed look for an event in Malaysia recently, will be styling him in his next, Thaana Serntha Kootam. While Ramaswamy cannot reveal more about Jyothika's styling for Magalir Mattum, we are thrilled with the actress' weight loss and are waiting to see more of this young and fresh look.
Winning debut
The 36-year-old—who has had ample experience in retailing and merchandising, in her family business, Naidu Hall—got into the business when, in 2012, director Bala asked her to style for his period film, Paradesi. When the film won the National award and the London International Film Award for best costume design, there was no looking back. Learning to keep it real with the Naan Kadavul director, she says, "Whether it is a period movie or a modern setting, he (Bala) always told me not use design for the sake of putting across something new. Styling should be according to the story and look believable."
Full kitty
The mother of a nine-year-old and an ardent cyclist, Ramaswamy has a packed calendar with back-to-back projects, including actor Karthi's next. Citing actor Rana Daggubati and actress Regina Cassandra's upcoming look in the bilingual, 1945 (Madai Thirandhu in Tamil), as challenging, she says, "That (period costumes) means lots of homework and research." Styling actor Dhanush in his untitled next, Ramaswamy is now putting together the look for his directorial debut, Power Pandi, even as she is styling actor Venkatesh in the Telugu remake of Saala Khadoos, actor Vikram Prabhu for Mudi Sooda Mannan, actor Santhanam for Server Sundaram and Vijay Vasanth's next. "I wish there were more than 24 hours in a day!" she concludes.

There is a hole in my heart where my perfect child lives.
My heart is broken; that hole will never be filled.
My heart is thin like a balloon overfilled to fit two broken boys.
One son punched me, yesterday. He was calm.
One son said, through the toothbrush in his mouth, "You'll die before me. I know it."
Can I have a fucking minute?
My heart is stuttering because my son is missing and the door's unlocked.
My heart is thundering because my son kicked a girl in the face at swim class.
Not yet. Please. Not yet.
There is a hole in my heart where my perfect child lives.
My heart is broken. That hole will never be filled.
One son called out to a woman walker on the path, "Oh, hello there!"
One son growled, "I am king of the rebels."
The walker stopped, smiled, and said, "That looks like quite a castle, king of the rebels."
She looked at me with her bright eyes and sighed, nearly cried, "I miss..."
My kids started talking about a dragon. I couldn't hear her. My ears turn to my sons.
Don't tell me what you miss.
I already know it's going.
I already feel it going.
I take so many pictures.
There is a hole in my heart where my perfect child lives.
My heart is broken because that hole will never be filled.
When he was small enough to fit there, he couldn't speak or wonder out loud.
Now that he can speak, he wants to stretch.
They only get bigger, you know.
My heart is broken because I sold their smallness for their voices, sea witch that I am.
I didn't think they'd keep growing but I keep buying new shoes.
My heart skips a beat. 43 bucks?
My heart is thin because it had to stretch for two bigger broken boys.
And there's still this hole.
You're the meanest mom in the world, he yells.
It doesn't bother me at all.
Don't leave me, he whispers. Not even when you die.
I was calm.
I'll miss you, he says. Don't leave me.
I would haunt you the rest of your life,
if you needed me that long.
But you won't,
my heart.
Oh, my heart.
I take so many pictures.
My heart is rising dough. It needs air.
My boys, and air.
One son selected a gown for me to wear today. It was a cocktail dress. It's Wednesday.
One son gasped when I put it on.
My heart.
I can't bear it.
I can't stand up when he turns those shining eyes on me.
I just realized
my two broken boys fit just right
where they are -
in my heart
which is broken

An Outdated Website Will Leave You Behind Your Competition!
Be honest with yourself, does your website look old? Technology these days advances very quickly and can cost you a lot of money to stay current, with careful design and planning your website will stand the test of time. Design nowadays tends to lean towards the simplistic approach with modern and sleek looks, having even the slightest sign of ageing is a no-no! There are those who think that age gives their visuals character and personality but remember this is a website not a antique! Your audience will be much more impressed and maintain interest in a site that looks like it was built yesterday and let's face it, looks do help when it comes to attracting attention!
Well That Doesn't Work Anymore…
Visuals are not the only thing that conveys a website as old, the functionality and even the way the code is written can signify an old and outdated site. Movements on hover effects and sliders can seem sluggish and glitchy, this could just be that the code is obsolete and no longer supported by many platforms or web browsers. Compatibility within different software is a vast subject and requires plenty of testing and knowledge of whats out there to come. Code is often being polished up and shortened making it clearer and more concise, often the older version of the code will still be readable and work as it should. Why stick with that if there is a snippet of code shorter which will likely show less errors in performance testing, increase read speed of the website and accommodate for any future additions or improvements? Move with the times and it will help keep you looking good and running efficiently.
The Opposition
The points outlined above will not only help to keep you looking good but should also raise your productivity and business. When comparing an old looking website to a new, modern looking one, more often that not the user will prefer the latter. Of course content comes into play here but they say a picture is worth a thousand words and the first thing people will notice is the visuals, do not rely solely on your content and let the competition get ahead of you.

Christian Outpatient Rehab
"Behold, I will bring health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth."
Jeremiah 33:6
Is your addiction to drugs and alcohol ruining your life and your relationship with God? At Road to Freedom, our compassionate and experienced staff is dedicated to treating every aspect of our patients' lives, not just their addiction.
We focus on the whole person – mind, body and spirit. In active addiction, suffering individuals often neglect their spirituality and their relationship with God. We are here to transform your brokenness into wholeness through the power of Jesus Christ. If you are struggling with addiction and co-occurring mental health issues, help is available at Road to Freedom's Christian outpatient program.
Our outpatient program will help you transition from inpatient treatment into sober living. We recognize that this can be difficult, which is why we developed a program to ease your transition from residential treatment back into the "real world." In our outpatient program, you will receive continued support to help you maintain your sobriety and grow in your relationship with God.
What We Offer
Road to Freedom's Outpatient Program utilizes a variety of techniques, activities and programs to help our patients recover from their addiction and connect with God on a deeper level.

Benefits of a Christian Outpatient Program
What are some of the advantages of attending a Christian outpatient program? Road to Freedom's comprehensive, integrated Christian treatment approach to addiction helps our patients heal on a deeper, spiritual level. In addition to treating substance abuse, our Christian counselors and pastors also address patients' religious or spiritual concerns.
According to the Bible, there are four dimensions of human life: physical, social, psychological and spiritual. Our Christian counselors use these four dimensions of humankind to approach our patients' addiction and related issues from a holistic approach. Our pastors and counselors take into account these four dimensions of humans to treat the whole person, which allows our patients to get to the root of their addiction and experience lasting recovery.
Restore Your Faith
The foundation of our Christian outpatient program lies in applying God's word and truth to your life and your unique difficulties. If you are interested in walking the path of Christ and recovering from your addiction, Road to Freedom can help. Our Christian outpatient program will empower you through spirituality to live the life that God intended for you. Our spiritual care team will help you develop a personal relationship with God as the true source of hope and love.

Title of Bulletin Board: How Do You Grow?
Category: Health
Suggested Grade Level: K-2
Materials: Construction paper, Staples,Tape, Posterboard, Scissors, and cutouts of bumble bees, cutouts of healthy phrases
The bulletin board is meant to look like a garden with the flowers, grass, bees, and the sun. Every flower represents a factor is helping children grow healthy. The garden is something that children can relate to because flowers grow just as they grow and the short phrases are easy to remember and will coincide with the big bold pictures that are on the bulletin board. The four main factors in helping a child grow are eating a balanced diet, smiling, sleeping,and exercising. These categories are short and to the point so that second graders will easily remember them and think of the flower growing when they want to know how they grow.

Improving the Research Infrastructure at U.S. Universities and Colleges. Hearing before the Committee on Science and Technology. U.S. House of Representatives, Ninety-Eighth Congress, Second Session.
Congress of the U.S., Washington, DC. House Committee on Science and Technology.
The state of university science and engineering research capabilities is considered. Attention is directed to the need for improving and enhancing the research infrastructure, including support for instrumentation, buildings, and other related research facilities. U.S. universities and colleges are encountering severe facilities and instrumentation problems. Federal funding to universities has recently been made in political, rather than peer review, circumstances. Recently, several universities have attempted to alleviate their infrastructural problems through direct solicitation to the Congress, thereby by-passing any peer-group review, which is based on scientific merits of specific proposals, in open competition. Constraints to the research infrastructure in U.S. universities include equipment, space, support personnel, graduate student support, and the ability to handle the information explosion and to translate new information into practice. In addition, universities face increased indirect costs. The attractiveness of an academic career is being diminished by an environment that provides outdated equipment and inadequate laboratory space. Tax incentives to business and equipment grants by the federal government are important catalysts in the development of university-industry research partnerships. (SW)

Jane Cosmetics Cream Eye Shadow Swatches
Friday Tuesday I'm in love….with Jane Cosmetics Cream Eye Shadow.
Luminous shimmery cream shadows? Double me up on that dosage. Jane Cosmetics Cream Eyeshadows promise a long-lasting, crease-free formula that can be worn alone or under your favorite powders.
Take a look!
I was busy swatching these a few days ago and kinda fell hard for them. I have a thing for cream eyeshadow the last few years and pretty much am sold on anything and everything cream. Ironic considering I used to hate such a formula!
These are rather gorgeous with a metallic-like finish and a nice bit of sparkle! They come in four shades for $7.99 each. I haven't yet tried them but expect a review shortly.
Lilac, Gold, and Bronze
I'm loving exploring all these new offerings from Jane Cosmetics. It's been literally years since I indulged in the brand and remember it from my High School days. It was probably one of my first real drugstore makeup purchases.

What does Broomfield, Colorado have in common with the Atlantic coast?
Certainly not the winters. No, winter appears quite distinct in both states.
What's common are the high winds. While Broomfield, Colorado has never needed to endure a hurricane, both states do have to cope with with damaging winds. Finding the best roofing material for a Broomfield, Colorado residence means acknowledging the danger of high winds, even the ones that reach hurricane force.
The Dangers of Wind in Broomfield
A simplistic perspective of wind on a roof says a gust of wind just picks up fiberglass-asphalt composite shingles and rips them away. This really is called uplift, which is an issue. It is not the sole problem with winds, however. Pressure differences, which can turn a roof into a wing are also caused by wind. Here the pressure on top of your roof suddenly drops compared to the pressure in your loft, and also the house itself shoves the roof up.
Wind shear is another problem, where a roof can be attacked by a sudden gust of wind at a right angle to the prevailing wind direction with unexpected force. Wind may also take airborne branches and debris that behave like missiles.
No matter the material that finally surfaces your roof, you need all the fasteners atop, and to take into account all the layers below , that surface. You could use metal, composite shingles, or even ceramic or concrete tiles, as long as the prevailing winds are not not weaker compared to mechanical fasteners.
The very best roofing material for high winds come from every angle and will be one that works perfectly with a roofing system that is complete, since the hidden forces begin inside your loft.
What Lies Beneath The Best Roofing Material
If that's not protected, the rest of your roof is not safe. Topping the sheathing is underlayment and water /ice shield. Underlayment is normally stapled on. Most water/ice shield is self-adhesive.
Atop the underlayment your finished roof materials will be seen by you. The best roofing material is neither waterproof nor wind-resistant in the event the layers below are not watertight and securely attached.
The Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) offers specific recommendations for composite shingle facility for high-wind regions. Details include:
- Nailing number and patterns of nails per shingle
- Nail length (including the idea not to make use of staples)
- Using 30-year shingles rather than 20-year shingles
The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) tests and evaluations for enduring high winds, D3161, provides you with some comparison yardstick for choosing fiberglass-asphalt shingles (composite shingles). Search for Class F ratings, so you know the composite shingles withstand 110 mph winds for just two hours.
Class D, a lower evaluation, carries just the reassurance the shingle resisted 90 mph winds for up to two hours.
Composite Shingles for roofing in Broomfield
Metal roofing is extremely wind resistant if correctly installed. Though initially far more expensive than composite shingles, alloy could be the best roofing material for your scenario if:
- You plan to maintain your home over 20 years
- You're constructing new
- You have some anxiety about fire along with winds
With metal roofing, such as perpendicular seam panels, the mechanical fastening is of extreme importance in holding powerful even against 160-mph winds. Uplift issues may be addressed by noticing the merchandise's evaluation results for UL test and ASTM standard E1592 580. & Nbsp;These evaluations ensure your Broomfield, Colorado house's metal roof will not blow off from a hurricane-degree pressure difference where high wind rate lowers the pressure and your house 's higher pressure pushes up on your own roof. Conversely, powerful gusts that wield tremendous loads down on the metal is not going to appreciably impact metal roofing of a gauge sufficient to pass UL 580 or ASTM E1592.
Ceramic in Broomfield
Ceramic and concrete tile, installed properly and with the mechanical fastenings that are right to pass building code, can also withstand high winds. They cannot readily withstand the airborne debris, including tree branches or alternative building parts which can be thrown up by sudden wind gusts. Ceramic and concrete tiles shatter from blunt force impact, while composite shingles and metal dents may dent, crack, or dislodge, so other choices could be the best roofing material.

Europe 2020 and youth: A partnership for the future?
June 21, 2010
Regarding 'EU leaders to end dispute over 2020 targets':
On 17 June the European Council adopted the long-awaited new EU strategy for jobs and growth. So what is this 'Europe 2020' strategy? It is presented as a 10-year strategy and a set of targets to rejuvenate the EU economy and equip Europe with the tools to tackle the economic crisis and be ready for future challenges.
Is this really going to change anything for young Europeans? That depends who you talk to. Here at the European Youth Forum, we feel very strongly that 'Europe 2020' should not and cannot be just another economic plan. We have argued that it must be inclusive and encompass all areas of life. It must aim at improving the quality of life of all and not just that of European business. Young people in Europe are ready and willing to contribute to the smart, sustainable and inclusive growth that the strategy aspires to. But first, in return, they need a strong commitment from the member states towards education, jobs and the reconciliation of their working and private lives.
So what are the 'youth' aspects of Europe 2020? Youth has been given a welcome fair share of attention in the Europe 2020 strategy, notably through the 'Youth on the Move' Flagship Initiative, which aims to "enhance the performance of education systems and to facilitate the entry of young people into the labour market", and in the headline target on employment, where young people are mentioned as a specific target group for better participation.
Europe 2020 and Youth on the Move have the potential to become an effective weapon for attacking the unacceptable level of youth unemployment, which the latest figures show approaching a historical high of over 20% in the EU. But to do so, their implementation will have to be closely followed and measured to ensure that they are having a real effect on the lives of young people, equipping them with the adequate skills and competencies to be confident and competitive to take their rightful place in society.
An important youth aspect of the Europe 2020 strategy are the education targets. After much political debate on the EU's legal right to set such targets, the heads of state succeeded in committing to a 10% reduction in premature school leavers and a 40% rise in university graduates and higher vocational training. Over time, this could make a dramatic difference in our societies. Education is critical for the knowledge society that Europe is aspiring to become and could unlock the path to steady economic growth.
The interest of the Europe 2020 strategy for youth does not lie only in the programmes tackling youth unemployment and providing quality internships and education. Other elements of Europe 2020, while not directly aimed at youth, will have a big impact on their lives and should be of real concern to all young people.
An example: building a sustainable society obviously concerns everyone, but success or failure here will affect today's young people more than their parents, especially when it comes to combating climate change and reaching the 20/20/20 targets for climate and energy. It is young people and the future generations that will face the fallout from the mistakes of today's decision-makers.
Comparisons will obviously be made with the Lisbon Strategy and the European Youth Pact that accompanied it in 2005. Europe 2020 gives little emphasis to enabling a genuine reconciliation between working and family life at European level, which was a cornerstone of the European Youth Pact. Although it gets a mention in the Integrated Guidelines and recommendations to member states, the gender perspective, for instance, is much less in evidence in the new Strategy.
Young people had high expectations of the 2005 European Youth Pact. Their hopes were not realised. Today they will look for tangible results from Europe 2020, with its promises of a new pact for young people, to build a future that is economically viable, ecological and socially inclusive. They will not be palmed off with empty phrases.

4 Ways to Help a Spouse Recover from Addiction
As the saying goes, love conquers all. But can love conquer addiction and treatment?
If you are the spouse of a person experiencing an addiction, you know it is not easy. Addiction can change a person: He or she may lie or do desperate things to acquire a substance. Though people prepare for stress when they enter a marriage, many do not anticipate the burden of an addiction or see it coming.
Addiction can have destructive effects on any relationship. The only way to save your marriage is to get your partner help. Here are four ways you can help your loved one get on the path to recovery.
1. Realize you cannot change people
You cannot change your partner, no matter how hard you try. Addiction is hard, but it can only be overcome by the person it affects. This takes a great deal of internal willpower and determination, Addiction Treatment magazine stated. If a person wants to stop addiction from taking over his or her life, he or she is the only person to make it happen.
2. Be supportive
Support is key in recovery. You should be supportive of your partner, especially during treatment. However, it is important not to enable him or her, since doing so will only exacerbate the problem. Support the recovery, not the addiction. If your partner asks or begs for his or her vice, do not give in – no matter how difficult it is.
3. Take care of yourself first
Despite the needs of your spouse, remember that you should still put yourself first. This can easily be overlooked if your partner has a problem. In order to properly take care of someone else, you need to be healthy – physically and mentally. Find time to exercise regularly and eat well.
4. Educate yourself
If your loved one has an addiction, take some time to learn about it. With addiction comes many trials and tribulations, and you will want to be prepared for them. For instance, it will be crucial for you to identify the signs of a relapse if it happens. Fortunately, there are plenty of resources to help you learn about addiction. Try attending a Narcotics Anonymous or Alcohol Anonymous meeting to hear other people's stories. There are also 12-step meetings for couples available if the addiction has drastically soured the relationship.

For some ECA students, ECA is their gateway to a new country, a new culture, and a new life.
Students in ECA's newcomer program have to balance the challenge of ECA's academic rigor with that of learning a brand new language and adapting to a new culture. The cognitive challenge of learning a new language while simultaneously learning complex academic material is mentally exhausting. Coupled with complexity of navigating in a new culture and often the pain of separation from family, friends, and home, each day is an act of courage and determination.
The joy and passion with which they do this is a great inspiration to their teachers and other students.

Hi Teresa
Just thought you would like to know that Katie (mom changed her name four times before settling on Scruffy - the name actually fits her well) is definitely one of your success stories. My mom loves her so much and now that she is finally warming up to my dad, he has nothing but glowing compliments about how calm and well-behaved she is for such a young dog. She follows mom everywhere, helps her in the kitchen, and my dad in the yard.
Take Care

Long hairstyles for men are reality. Starting from ancient times the length of tresses meant a lot. It defined the man's positions in the society, also the level of his wealth, the number of his victories. Then the trends completely changed and short cuts came into fashion. Crop cuts, fades, the elegant hairstyles from 60's with deep side parting and backs like those of Elvis. Well, nowadays, long hair is again fashion sported by men in different corners of the worlds. Perhaps long mane does not to have so much significance like in the past, but for sure it looks extremely impressive. Especially on black guys hairstyles with the vibrant hair texture and dreads. Black man bun hairstyle ideas are worthy to look at and copy if your hair is long.

Black man bun hairstyle ideas for elegant looks

Various ideas on male bun hairstyles

by Certain Days
A Burning Books favorite! Full of essays, beautiful artwork and important dates in social justice history!
The Certain Days: Freedom for Political Prisoners Calendar is a joint fundraising and educational project between outside organizers in Montreal, Toronto, and New York, in partnership with three political prisoners being held in maximum-security prisons in New York State: David Gilbert, Robert Seth Hayes and Herman Bell. The initial project was suggested by Herman in 2001, and has been shaped throughout the years by all of our ideas, discussions, and analysis. All of the current members of the outside collective are grounded in day-to-day organizing work other than the calendar, on issues ranging from migrant justice to community media to prisoner solidarity. We work from an anti-imperialist, anti-racist, anti-capitalist, feminist, queer- and trans- liberationist position.
"This year's theme has been a bit of a moving target. We wanted to showcase different groups and movements who are Awakening Resistance to the current political climate, the one brought to the fore by Trump's entry into office, though it clearly goes beyond that one person and has deep roots that precede his election. When we put out our call for submissions in March, many of us were working to understand the changes in tone and substance of the political establishment, and to respond—both personally and as a movement—to the increased blatancy and viciousness of far-right attacks, as well as increased state repression. In the intervening months, much analysis has emerged to explain this political moment, and to help understand the history that brought us here. On both sides of the U.S.-Canadian border, though the context differs, organizations and campaigns have formed to fight back. But much remains to be done.
The contributions we received for the 2018 calendar range from confronting the far-right to building resistance inside prisons. Many highlighted campaigns and projects began well before Trump ran for office, underscoring the fact that this "new" political reality is simply an outgrowth of processes that extend far back in time. In the face of increasingly bold racism and xenophobia, people are stepping up to challenge Islamophobia, anti-immigrant measures, and attacks on reproductive justice. Important dialogues have opened up—or been revitalized—on the role of antisemitism in upholding white supremacy, and on the relationship between the far-right and the mainstream capitalist establishment. We invite you to use this edition of Certain Days as a tool to further these efforts. Discuss these articles with fellow organizers. Use the calendar to fundraise for your project, or as a conversation-starter in your community around these issues. Get in touch with our contributors to continue the conversation."

Activity for 2 to 5 year olds.
Sing along rhymes like Five Little Monkeys are big in our house. They're guaranteed to distract my three young kids during long car rides, unexpected waits at the doctor's office… you name it. And, as a big bonus, the sing alongs teach my kids to recognize patterns in words – an important pre-reading skill.
Since St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner, I pulled together a fun shamrock-themed rhyme to help my kids get in the holiday spirit. For parents, the free printable is a great preschool busy bag to take to restaurants or on airplane rides. For teachers, it's an awesome circle time activity or send-home for students' families.
Five Little Shamrocks
Prepping for Five Little Shamrocks was quick and easy. After cutting out the silly lyrics and printable shamrocks, I spread the cards out on the table and invited my four year old son to join me . {You can download your own copy of the freebie below.}
I read the first verse of the rhyme to my son and asked him to repeat the words after me.
Five little shamrocks in the cookie store,
{My son's name} took one and then there were four.
I invited my son to act out the St. Patrick's Day rhyme by taking away one of the shamrocks.
Then we continued with the next verse.
Four little shamrocks for you and me,
{My son} took one and then there were three.
My son reached for the next shamrock and happily removed it.
We continued rhyming and playing until all of the shamrocks were gone. Then my son eagerly lined up the cards again and began rhyming his way through the bunch.
