OK, I took @AlBs code and @Joshua_Peters last post and turned it into a measure. First, I recreated 'Route Information' to have 5 dates' worth of data, one date of which is missing 3 of the locations (Dt is literally just a list of 5 dates 1/14 - 1/18):
Route Information =
'Table2 (2)',
'Table2 (2)'[MEMNO],
'Table2 (2)'[Post Code],
'Table2 (2)'[Lattitude],
'Table2 (2)'[Longitude]
FILTER ( Dt, Dt[Date] < "1/18/18" )
'Table2 (2)',
NOT ( 'Table2 (2)'[MEMNO] IN { "A21200", "A22701", "B10500" } )
'Table2 (2)'[MEMNO],
'Table2 (2)'[Post Code],
'Table2 (2)'[Lattitude],
'Table2 (2)'[Longitude]
FILTER ( Dt, Dt[Date] = "1/18/18" )
Then taking the working code, transformed it into a measure, keeping the Date filter (I'm probably not doing it the most efficient way using variables - I still have trouble getting ALLEXCEPT and KEEPFILTER working without trial and error):
DCH (Miles) =
VAR HouseLatitude = MIN ( 'Route Information'[Lattitude] )
VAR HouseLongitude = MIN ( 'Route Information'[Longitude] )
VAR EarthCircumference = 3959
VAR House = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Route Information'[MEMNO] )
VAR __Dt = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Route Information'[Date] )
ALL ( 'Route Information' ),
'Route Information'[MEMNO] <> House
&& 'Route Information'[Date] = __Dt
VAR CinemaLatitude = 'Route Information'[Lattitude]
VAR CinemaLongitude = 'Route Information'[Longitude]
VAR _DistanceFromCurrentRough =
80 * SQRT ( POWER ( ( HouseLatitude - CinemaLatitude ), 2 ) + POWER ( ( HouseLongitude - CinemaLongitude ), 2 )
IF ( _DistanceFromCurrentRough <> 0, _DistanceFromCurrentRough )
As you can see, on 1/18/18, the distance is different for M49418
View solution in original post
Hmmm... I'm a bit surprised it's accurate as I just put it together quite quickly and only with rough numbers. I mean I wouldn't trust my formula if I were you Anyway we can keep using it until all other issues are solved and then we could try to change it if necessary as that wouldn't affect the rest.
I was going to post the measure but I see @dedelman_clng has already done it.
What are you going to need regarding the dates? Filter only a single day? A period?
Out of curiosity, what problems did you have with ALLEXCEPT and KEEPFILTERS ?
@AlB- mainly wrapping my head around the advanced context filter concepts (extended tables, etc). 20+ years of SQL development has me more comfortable with assigning and using variables. I've taken the Mastering DAX class but some of the concepts are having trouble sticking in my brain. When I get advanced concepts to work it feels more like luck than skill because I'd have a hard time explaining it to someone else.
Yeah i mean i've only checked 10 points so far, but initially it looks accurate for a total dataset.
There out to different degrees of variation but aslong as there within a +/- 5 mile radius i should be able to achieve the desired result i am aiming for.
Plus i am verifying as a car would drive between points on Google Maps and not as the bird would fly so i would expect the actual to be a degree more.
I want to inititally see the data for a full week with closest house to see anyone who is not within 30 miles of another house point to be classed as a "remote location".
Then Filter down to a single date and see again if there is anyone with a greater distance than 30 miles, that isnt categorised as a "remote location" so in theory if that house point was on a different date it could be within 30 miles of the next house if that makes sense just to visulise a theory and analyse by specific dates and by weeks.
I would like to filter and distances be recalculated on a range on variables aswell like Town/City would be one to remove certain points from the analysis overall as we have some points in Belfast it is throwing some issues as it doesn't account for the water crossing so i need to split those by Island and Mainland to avoid any issues later.
I have just tried out the measure from above and its calculating distances but sporadically across the range so some rows in the table visual have enteries and some dont?
@dedelman_clng Ammendment.
The measure is working, must of been my impatience while it populated the data returned.
Yet to verify the entries it has produced though against actual distances aswell but will take a look to see if its a similar finding to the calculated column.
Thanks again,
Cool to hear it works. I think it will need some minor modifications to respond to time periods (other than a single day) and other slicers.
By the way I had a quick look at the data you posted earlier comparing the actual distance and the distance with my rough calculation. It seems that 96 would be the best factor to apply, instead of the 80 that we have now. This is purely empirical though and strictly based in the limited sample you provided.
Yeah was just the start, I wanted to verify around 100 points and then go with the average factor from that sample should get us in the ballpark of accuracy I will need.
I have created a v3 of the sample file here.
To include a date column.
There is also the Closest House New column, which is a combination of the original closest house formula and the Distance to closest house formula you wrote to try and retrieve the associated nearest MEMNO that is that distance away. That would also be ideal as a measure to adjust with any on page slicers.
Think I've learnt more depicting your guy's formulas this week than I have all year.
Thanks again for the help!!
Just thought...
The closest House is a TOPN function...
'Route Information',
VAR Lat2 = 'Route Information'[Lattitude]
VAR Lng2 = 'Route Information'[Longitude]
//---- Algorithm here -----
VAR final =
80*SQRT(POWER((Lat1-Lat2),2) + POWER((Lng1-Lng2),2))
final <> 0,
So currently it is returning the TOP 1st Value in ascending order. I need the second TOPN.
Going with the same theory as the;
final <> 0,
Piece the in distance to closest house working formula.

Grass seeds need a few vital things in order to germinate. One of those things is moisture. The average person probably prefers to seed their grass when it is dry outside for their personal convenience. They must then use supplemental water to provide the necessary moisture for grass seed to germinate. By planting grass seed in the rain you can get the seed to germinate the way nature intended--by allowing moisture to be applied naturally.
Watch the weather forecast and plan to seed your grass when a rainy period is forecasted. A steady, long-duration light rain is ideal.
Loosen the soil in the area you want to plant your grass seed with your garden rake.
Sprinkle the area with 16 to 22 grass seeds per square inch. Use a broadcast spreader if seeding large areas. Set it to the setting indicated on the grass seed bag to achieve the correct dispensing rate.
Rake the soil to cover the seeds. Burying them in the soil will allow them to achieve the necessary seed to soil contact required for germination and also prevent birds from eating them.
Watch the weather closely. If natural rainfall subsides, you will need to supplement extra water to keep the soil moist.
Things You Will Need
- Garden rake
- Grass seed
- Broadcast spreader
- Lawn sprinklers
- Garden hose
- Seeding during dry periods of weather can cause the seed to dry out between waterings. Seed that dries out will have a longer germination time and lower germination rate.

Catfish and The Bottlemen Announce Irish Dates
Catfish and The Bottlemen's third album will be titled The Balance, set for release on Friday 26 April 2019.
In a rush of confirmations following the successful release of new single, Longshot, earlier this month, it's now known that the new album release will be closely followed by a run of live shows across UK and Europe this Spring.
New songs from the 11-track album will feature in a 12-show run that kicks off in Galway, the Republic of Ireland. The newly announced arena dates throughout the UK will offer disappointed fans, who missed out on their imminent and SOLD OUT arena dates this February, another chance to score tickets. The full list of freshly booked dates is as follows:
• Sun 28 Apr Galway, Leisureland
• Tue 30 Apr Dublin, The Olympia Theatre
• Thu 2 May Brighton, Brighton Centre
• Sat 4 May Coventry, Ericsson Indoor Arena
• Sun 5 May Cardiff, Motorpoint Arena
• Tue 7 May Sheffield, FlyDSA Arena
• Wed 8 May Manchester, Manchester Arena
• Mon 13 May Madrid, La Riviera
• Tue 14 May Barcelona, Razzmatazz
• Thu 16 May Milan, Alcatraz
• Sat 18 May Berlin, Huxleys Neue Welt
• Mon 20 May Amsterdam, Melkweg
The guarded four-piece remained tight-lipped during the recording sessions for their new album, but now offer further insights into the new material set to soundtrack their journey onto yet bigger stages.
In the breaks between electrifying outdoor and festival shows in 2018, Van McCann (vocals, guitars), Johnny Bond (guitars), Robert 'Bob' Hall (drums) and Benji Blakeway (bass) retreated with Irish producer, Jacknife Lee, to carefully craft The Balance over a 12-month period. Recorded in seclusion at two locations: Grouse Lodge, in Moate, Republic of Ireland, and The Chapel in the countryside of East Lincolnshire, the band lived and breathed the album while residing together in rural isolation. The album was mixed by Craig Silvey.
"We loved living in the same place," says McCann. "We were staying there the whole time, so we were waking up around each other and working until we needed to go to bed. Jacknife was always up. He was the first up and the last awake. It's good when you're completely engulfed in recording in a place like that, living together, because every day and all day it was about the songs. We had fun too; they were the funniest album sessions we've done."

Amsterdam and San Francisco Seek Solutions to Common Urban Challenges
A group of 50+ entrepreneurs, students, urban planners, government officials & private sector executives gathered at the Dutch Consulate of San Francisco yesterday to compare notes on U.S. and Dutch solutions to shared urban challenges.
The event marked the beginning of a week-long visit from Amsterdam's Deputy Mayor, Carolien Gehrels.
Excited for today's Roundtable Discussion on Urban Solutions with Amsterdam's Deputy Mayor at the Dutch Consulate in SF. #urbansolutions
— Steven Tiell (@stiell) January 21, 2013
The event featured both American and Dutch speakers – Bas Boorsma from Cisco Systems presented a series of urban innovations that have brought Cisco directly into the life of Amsterdam, how he and his colleagues developed and implemented these projects, and why Cisco undertook these initiatives in Amsterdam. Smart Work was one of those featured projects. Perhaps the most important one of these projects showcased by Bas was "IP-enabled Public Lighting" for the city. This white paper – written by two of Cisco's IBSG team and one Philips executive – describes the underlying ideas behind the Amsterdam "IP-enabled Public Lighting" initiative.
During the "2012 Meeting of the Minds" the lighting projects in Amsterdam were showcased during a presentation by two of those white paper authors. The video and the transcript provide a helpful overview.
The event was moderated by Gordon Feller, co-founder of Meeting of the Minds and Director of Urban Innovation at Cisco Systems, who also spoke about the importance of Amsterdam and San Francisco as hubs for emerging companies and technologies.
"The next Steve Jobs in the Netherlands is not sitting in a garage, he's sitting in a smart work center." @basboursma #urbansolutions — Dutch Consulate SF (@DutchCGSF) January 21, 2013
The three P's of urban innovation are commonly thought of as Public Private Partnerships, but Deputy Mayor Carolien Gehrels spoke about three other P's that have been key to Amsterdam's success – People, Prosperity and the Planet. As she said, Amsterdam "made mistakes" in the past – particularly in the 1970s, when she says Amsterdam turned it's focus away from fostering a healthy middle class in the city. One of the keys to Amsterdam's resiliency has always been it's ability to learn from past missteps, and Gehrels says they learned from this one as well. She warned that a prosperous, livable city needs a strong middle class and detailed steps Amsterdam has taken – such as investing in young, urban entrepreneurs – to pursue this goal.
How true! "@dutchcgsf: Amsterdam's focus on people and their needs led to the development of a city that meets their needs #urbansolutions" — Jan Wester (@janwester) January 21, 2013
Bas Verhart, co-founder of THNK and PICNIC, led a group discussion on common urban challenges and techniques for finding solutions.
The key to finding innovative solutions to urban problems, he says, is reframing the challenges, breaking paradigms and seeking out-of-the-box ideas. Verhart separated the group into working pairs and asked them to discuss the urban challenges that they are most passionate about, and to find solutions with techniques that might help them reframe the problems.
Some of the issues discussed included affordable urban housing, self-reliance, declining education, cultural isolation of minority groups, climate change & universal access for the visually impaired. Each pair worked together to reframe the problems and the resulting conclusions were presented to the group. Conversations continued throughout the following reception.
@meetoftheminds My takeaway from yesterday: urban problems are more a lack of vision than lack of resources/technology. #urbansolutions
— John C. Fox (@djembe) January 22, 2013
Many thanks to Bart van Bolhuis, Consul General of the Netherlands, and to his entire staff at the Dutch Consulate of San Francisco for a successful and enlightening event. Je weer te zien!

Spotlighting innovations in urban sustainability and connected technology
Rethinking Coastal Property in an Era of Climate Change
The country has provided hundreds of billions of dollars to recover from recent coastal storms but done little to rethink the existing policies and programs that contribute to coastal property losses, or to define new measures that account for the new realities of more damaging storms and rising sea levels.
A key first step toward smarter policies is to improve disclosure of risk associated with coastal properties. This will require better mapping of areas at risk of both storms and rising seas. National standards are needed for disclosure of coastal flood risk prior to sale. Lenders and supporting agencies need to evaluate and disclose coastal flood risk.
How Cities Can Engage with Mobility as a Service
By incorporating multiple transport modes into a single application, users can benefit from personalised services which recognise individual mobility needs, easier transactions and payments, and dynamic journey management and planning.
A fully comprehensive MaaS offering could mean the ownership of private vehicles is no longer necessary for people. As mobility needs begin to be provided by a range of services through a single platform, usership could replace ownership.
The potential of MaaS has been recognised around the world. In the UK, the government has included MaaS within its transport strategy. An expert committee of Members of Parliament concluded that MaaS has the "potential to transform how people travel" by boosting public transport, reducing congestion, and improving air quality.
Four Cornerstones for Integrating Water and Energy Systems
The water-energy nexus is not new. The concept that our water and energy systems are reliant on each other is sometimes paired with a third issue, like food security or public health. This can make it more relevant to our daily lives. Despite a basic understanding of resource interdependencies, city and utility leaders still allow planning and implementation processes to remain predominately separate. A common local scenario finds the water utility facing system upkeep alone, the energy utility not considering other utility issues or city goals as they operate, and city leaders generally focused on more visibly troublesome urban systems, like housing or transportation.

But the system offers a painful and mindless grind. At worst, it feels like a cheap and artificial wall blocking you from playing your character to its full potential. Levels of your heart come fast at first, but the costs become prohibitive when you get up into level 20 or so. This wouldn't be an issue if the most powerful Azerite gear didn't require reaching level 22 to unlock even 75 percent of their full damage, leaving players left out of features from gear they've already collected. This means more grinding.
-Azerite Gear- This has been the worst experience for many players as it was advertised as offering the player many options for customizing their character but all players do is Google "Icy veins (Spec/Class) azerite ranks" and select the best one. This is expected and really only gives players the illusion of choice as they're always going to pick the best one. This could have been done far better by not offering necessarily just damage increases in traits but offering some of the Legion Legendary item effects in Azerite slots. You know, certain Azerite traits would be better for PvP, some for raiding, some for 5 mans, some for soloing old content, etc. The other problem with Azerite gear is that it's locked based on you grinding an endless amount of Azerite for your neck piece (basically the stuff that increases the level of your neck piece). So when you get an item that should be an upgrade, it really isn't because you don't have all the traits unlocked. This complaint about how horrible this system is could go on forever, but I'll just leave it at that, horrible.
Picking up herbalism and mining is the best professions to have while leveling. Not only will you earn gold as you level, but you will also get extra XP. At level 20 you will get over 500 XP for picking up a ore or a herb while killing a mob only gives a little over 100 XP. Don't go out of your way to pick herbs if you are trying to level quickly, but pick the ones that are on your way. Leveling from 110 to 120 can be done pretty quickly just by doing this. There are a few items that will help you if you decide to use professions while leveling:
These guides are completely automated and work in-game, so you can see step-by-step instructions as you play. The guides automatically move to a new step as you complete the quests. You are told where to go i.e. the questgivers for accepting and turning in quests along with where and how to complete the quests. Zygor has more steps and details, which would be more suited to beginners. Dugi condenses the info into fewer steps, but still has all the necessary questing info.
For Alliance it's Lok'Modan, Redridge, Darkshore, Felwood, Stranglethorn (both parts), Plaguelands. Somewhere between 3 - 3.5 of these get you to 60 in like a 16 hours /played, if you queue for dungeons at the same time. I recommend dropping everything at 45 and going to Darkshore-Felwood if you didn't do them yet - they are literally the fastest levelling zones in the game right now, maybe only trumped by Silverpine.
But the system offers a painful and mindless grind. At worst, it feels like a cheap and artificial wall blocking you from playing your character to its full potential. Levels of your heart come fast at first, but the costs become prohibitive when you get up into level 20 or so. This wouldn't be an issue if the most powerful Azerite gear didn't require reaching level 22 to unlock even 75 percent of their full damage, leaving players left out of features from gear they've already collected. This means more grinding.
Special note: At 110 it's almost certainly worthwhile to go and immediately get your Heart of Azeroth and first piece of Azerite gear from the BfA opening quest. It doesn't take long and provides pretty high power levels. I'd then return to Legion quests until 111 or even 112, since the power of these items will increase your kill speed significantly over the scaled enemies of BfA content.
War Mode, which allows players on PvE realms to turn on PvP combat and PvP realm players to turn it off, launched--offering a fairly measly 10% extra experience to leveling players for the privilege of getting ganked by max-level characters, or 10% increased world quest rewards for level-capped characters. For many players, that's not much an enticement.
I'm very, very interested in a guide that takes into the following: 1) Dungeon finder; and 2) Heirloom items. I've never helped with a guide before, but would be open to help in collaborating on the project. With the leveling guides I've used (primarily this one) I, too, find that I level at a rate that throws the pace of the guide way off (not its fault at all, I can't say enough good stuff about the guide) to the point that I get frustrated and just queue up for dungeons.
The expansion allows players to level up to level 120, an increase from the level cap of 110 in the previous expansion Legion.[1] Initially, there will be ten dungeons included with 8.0 with Mythic Plus versions of the dungeons and the first raid, Uldir, being available soon after the game's release. Following the beginning of preorders and the release of four allied races in January 2018, the number of character slots per server was raised from 12 to 16; with the launch of the expansion in August, it was raised to 18, to make room for the two additional races unlocked with initial content. The number of available bag slots in the player's backpack, which has been fixed at 16 slots since the game's release in 2004, will also receive an increase if an authenticator is attached to an account.
But compare that with BfA's lackluster prepatch. Last week, players' uber-powerful Artifact weapons, which they had spent the entire Legion expansion building up, abruptly burnt out with no in-game explanation, no storyline, no quest, no Dad jokes from Khadgar, just a line of text on the Artifact screen saying they had been sacrificed to help stop the destruction of the world--part of the ending quests for Legion.
I also noticed that the slowdowns were heating up my graphics card (a GTX1080 with good cooling and a well-configured fan curve). On high but not max settings, I would always hover around 60-65 degrees C, and thought this was normal. After turning auto zoom off, I noticed that my card never gets past 49 degrees C. I'm pretty shocked, as it's a very hot day where I am and I didn't know one feature could affect temps so much. I didn't know my temps could even get that low! Even on full max settings (with 200% resolution scaling etc.), it now can't go over 66 degrees, whereas it used to go up to 74 degrees at times when auto zoom was on.
Blood Elves and Dwarves gain access to Heritage armor as part of 8.1, as well, without a prolonged quest line, though they'll need to be exalted through Silvermoon and Ironforge, respectively, in order to receive it. A Warfront called The Battle for Darkshore focuses on the struggle between Night Elves and the Forsaken. During the Warfront, you'll be able to transform your character with temporary abilities, and when your faction controls either the Darkshore or Arathi Highlands, you'll gain access to world quests.
I used Zygor for legion and BFA, used AA on an alt for BFA. Personally i like Zygors format more. I like being able to target things like achievements. I used Zygor to get my Mindworm and my Lucid Nightmare as well as finish the Rep grinds for the allied races. I have zero complaints. My experience was great. I also used Zygor for some professions, recipe acquisition, a couple mounts, all of the Suramar quest line. Thank God for that. And for the last zone of Draenor on my Demon Hunter.. i forget the name.. Whatever the big daily hub thing was called.
Anyway, however you choose to get to the addon's menu, choose guide list and then pick the zone you want to quest in. There are some zones that will autoselect based on quests in your log, but not all guides or all quests are set up that way. (If you don't want to switch to a guide that auto-pops up choose "not now" or "never") As you can see in the screenshot, there are various categories of guides. Most max level content (such as Argus) is found in Achievements rather than leveling.
Void elf - "Many have sought to harness the corruptive magic of the Void. Most who tried have fallen into madness. Determined to use this power for the good of Azeroth, Alleria Windrunner is the first mortal to succeed at defying the shadow's whispers. Coming to the aid of a group of her kin who nearly gave in to the darkness, Alleria has vowed to train these Void Elves to control the shadows within them and pledge their newfound powers to the Alliance."
Incursions are a new world content activity that are unlocked when one character has unlocked World Quests. This feature is unlocked account-wide meaning that all characters on that account can access Incursions even without being Level 120. This provides for a lucrative experience acquisition method that is available in a similar pattern to what Legion Invasions offered with nearly an entire level earned by completing an Incursion series which involves four World Quests and one mini-scenario at the end. These also grant item level 370 weapons and Azerite armor, so they should be done any time they are up. Incursions follow a similar schedule to Invasions and are available for 20 hours once they are initiated.
Darkmoon Faire: The Darkmoon Faire comes around once a month and provides two ways of bonus XP. You can ride the carousel to get the "Whee!" buff (10% bonus XP for one hour). You can also get the Darkmoon Top Hat by playing a few games, which gives you 10% bonus XP but only works during the Darkmoon Faire. Both of these are generally not worth it for the most part, as you spend more time running to get the buff than you gain in XP when leveling.
Footholds into enemy territories can be done as you grow in levels and should be completed before reaching Level 120. Take the time after completing your first zone to do your first foothold, or you can choose to complete one as soon as you gather your 100 War Resources which will prompt you to return to your mission table area where the first foothold quest can be obtained. Similar to how your initial zone selection was largely irrelevant, this selection is, as well. Simply pick one and complete it to earn your Mission Table second champion. Send your champions out on missions, recruit troops, and then head back out to quest in your second zone selection.
Just like player item levels, the game's professions have become pretty bloated over time. Blizzard has made some updates to the leveling process before but Battle for Azeroth features a skill squish that should smooth things out considerably. Instead of having to level hundreds of points before you can start crafting Battle for Azeroth items, each expansion will have its own separate skill tier. In other words, you can start crafting Battle for Azeroth content right away, while the gear and items from other expansions will each feature their own separate counters. Your first Battle for Azeroth item will put you at 1/150 on the counter for the new expansion, no more grinding needed.
-Gameplay- Gameplay has largely been stripped down to be a shell of its former self. This trimming has been going on for several expansions, but now it's even worse. Classes only have so many buttons which has resulted in very little skill involved in PvE (even PvP is a faceroll for most melee, lacking any sort of depth and decision-making as it's pretty clear what buttons to press in any given situation) and it's become more of a gear check. This expansion gave zero new abilities to classes, only took them away.

Years ago, soon after I started selling my handmade silver jewelry at art and crafts shows, a friendly older man approached me and told me that he like my silver wire jewelry. He then proceeded to tell me that he used to make personalized "name" jewelry and sell it at malls and carnivals.
He offered to show me how he created names in silver wire. He obviously was eager to show me his skills (and I was very curious to see how he did it) so I pulled out some round nosed pliers and 20 gauge silver wire. He immediately set to work making me a little silver perfectly aligned pendant! It took him less than 5 minutes - what a craftsperson!
He told me that I could take over his business, since he was no longer doing it. Honestly? I would love to be able to do this. I am tempted to give it a try - I think it would take me a LOT of practice to be able to create a piece as well done as that one he made for me so many years ago.

Just about all of my jewelry designs start with plain coils of sterling silver wire just like this! The wire is cut, shaped, filed and each small piece is then carefully linked together by hand, one at a time, to form a complete piece of jewelry.
It can be a tedious process but I love seeing a plain piece of wire turned into jewelry that will be treasured and worn for many years and then handed down for the next generation to enjoy and appreciate.

This book was recommended to me by Megan Auman (www.meganauman.com) and, since I already had Brene Brown's other book (which I can't remember the name of) on my "must read" list, I decided to go ahead & ask Mr. Amazon to send me both of them ASAP.
I started reading this last night and here's what I can tell you. I am 15 pages in and this book is going to change my life. I am almost in tears as I type that.
She talks about courage (the everyday type, not the "i'm a hero" type), connection and compassion in ways that are real and "actionable", if that makes sense. It's almost reading like a how-to book of how to be a better person. In fact, it IS a how-to book.
Ok, i'm going to go read now. :)

Anyway, once we left on our driving trip to California, I decided to spend the trip looking for things that gave me joy.
This was the first thing I saw on the trip that made me laugh out loud - this crazy fun set of salad serving "forks". So many colors! So much abandon and abundance of colors!!

Jewelry Behind the Scenes
I am seeing a lot of my studio lately - getting ready for an art show like St. James Court in Louisville, Kentucky means making new silver jewelry, taking photos of the new jewelry, cleaning and polishing the jewelry, pricing and packing.
This year, I even rethought my booth colors (basically, it had no color in the past, which I thought was elegant and perfect at the time) and had new posters made to hang in the booth....PLUS new business cards and postcards to reflect the new "feel" of the booth.
I love the new colorful booth! It's playful and bold and eye-catching! It's going to be a fun place to be for three days this year in Louisville!
Click here if you want to join my email list - you'll be the first to see new designs as soon as they hit the website!
We will be on the road for 2 back to back art shows starting October 4th in Louisville, Kentucky for the St. James Court Art Show, then on to the Pink Palace Art Show in Memphis, Tennessee the following weekend!
So, I am cleaning and polishing all the silver jewelry, pricing, packing & generally getting everything ready to go.
We are REALLY hoping for cooler weather on this trip -it's been SO HOT here in south Louisiana!!

What a cynical ploy: Lie to parents to turn the students into hostages.
Views: 776
As others here have pointed out, this person is trying to use humor and poorly constructed satire to make her point ... and as others have pointed out, this is a petty issue not worthy of our time or keystrokes when there are major issues in the government schools -- such as Leftist indoctrination and failure to educate -- that should concern us much more than this dunce's attempted humor.
I'm just not going to get my panties in a knot about this one.
She is lying to herself too. She is a boat and she could float in the Hudson River, and she thinks she is Slim Pickens..
Dee, slap that weight challeged something, I can not.
We need to get America and our children back
albert moore no big deal,theheadline for this was misleading.With all the serious things going on we should not have frivolious distractions.
I think this was wonderfully funny. Let's not get crazy about the small things. A little tongue and cheek humor can go a long way reaching an understanding between people (and kids). I think we should focus our outrage where it counts most. That being what and how they are teaching our children. Things like socialism is good/ rich people are bad/the indoctrination the Teachers use by way of their revisionist history. Or not teaching them to read. Those are the things I have a hard time dealing with.
Hostage should be used when speaking of the other kids who have to set there while their time is bing used up with the teacher trying to deal with the kid that should have been sent home. If she really belives she got away with Lieing to the parents- then she has never been a partent; as a parent my next question would have been ' Now what's the kids name your talking about? Cause it sure as hell isn't my kid!"
Are we seriously going to pretend there was something wrong with that video? Do we have to act like liberals and make a big deal out of nothing.... arguments like this gives no credit to the Tea Party, it only makes us look like we cry wolf over everything.
Chris, you're wrong. The title of the video tells it all. A Chicago teacher/administrator talking to the New York Communist teacher's union meeting. Her laughter was real, and she's proud of her dis-service.
Far too many parents don't want to hear the truth about their children today and the fact that teachers are so limited in ways to discipline unruly children makes it difficult for me to find fault with this educators method of beating the system. I think our battles should be picked with greater care.
Give me a break. She was just putting humor into her talk! Why turn it into an absurdity with your mis-leading headline! C. Woods

Is it odd for a boy to like fuzzy socks?
One of my friends got me hooked, she always wears them. I'm just wondering if it's weird. And maybe leave a story? It doesn't matter if you don't. I just want to make sure I'm not the only one.

Fuzzy socks are comfortable.
I think there might be some judgmental people who might say ignorant things, but who cares because they're comfy!
I'm a girl, but if I saw guys wearing fuzzy socks then I'd want him to wear it with pride and have a sense of humor abut it, instead of being ashamed of them.

It's totally fine. They are comfy and it's stupid if people judge you of what kind of socks you wear.

No, noboby will you.I love my fuzzy socks.Dont listen to that person who said you are gay.Both of my nephews wear them.If you like them thats all thats matters.

Formal self-insurance is the deliberate decision to pay for otherwise insurable losses out of one's own money.[citation needed] This can be done on a formal basis by establishing a separate fund into which funds are deposited on a periodic basis, or by simply forgoing the purchase of available insurance and paying out-of-pocket. Self-insurance is usually used to pay for high-frequency, low-severity losses. Such losses, if covered by conventional insurance, mean having to pay a premium that includes loadings for the company's general expenses, cost of putting the policy on the books, acquisition expenses, premium taxes, and contingencies. While this is true for all insurance, for small, frequent losses the transaction costs may exceed the benefit of volatility reduction that insurance otherwise affords.[citation needed]
An insurance underwriter's job is to evaluate a given risk as to the likelihood that a loss will occur. Any factor that causes a greater likelihood of loss should theoretically be charged a higher rate. This basic principle of insurance must be followed if insurance companies are to remain solvent.[citation needed] Thus, "discrimination" against (i.e., negative differential treatment of) potential insureds in the risk evaluation and premium-setting process is a necessary by-product of the fundamentals of insurance underwriting.[citation needed] For instance, insurers charge older people significantly higher premiums than they charge younger people for term life insurance. Older people are thus treated differently from younger people (i.e., a distinction is made, discrimination occurs). The rationale for the differential treatment goes to the heart of the risk a life insurer takes: Old people are likely to die sooner than young people, so the risk of loss (the insured's death) is greater in any given period of time and therefore the risk premium must be higher to cover the greater risk.[citation needed] However, treating insureds differently when there is no actuarially sound reason for doing so is unlawful discrimination.
In July 2007, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) released a report presenting the results of a study concerning credit-based insurance scores in automobile insurance. The study found that these scores are effective predictors of risk. It also showed that African-Americans and Hispanics are substantially overrepresented in the lowest credit scores, and substantially underrepresented in the highest, while Caucasians and Asians are more evenly spread across the scores. The credit scores were also found to predict risk within each of the ethnic groups, leading the FTC to conclude that the scoring models are not solely proxies for redlining. The FTC indicated little data was available to evaluate benefit of insurance scores to consumers.[58] The report was disputed by representatives of the Consumer Federation of America, the National Fair Housing Alliance, the National Consumer Law Center, and the Center for Economic Justice, for relying on data provided by the insurance industry.[59]
Insurance can influence the probability of losses through moral hazard, insurance fraud, and preventive steps by the insurance company. Insurance scholars have typically used moral hazard to refer to the increased loss due to unintentional carelessness and insurance fraud to refer to increased risk due to intentional carelessness or indifference.[22] Insurers attempt to address carelessness through inspections, policy provisions requiring certain types of maintenance, and possible discounts for loss mitigation efforts. While in theory insurers could encourage investment in loss reduction, some commentators have argued that in practice insurers had historically not aggressively pursued loss control measures—particularly to prevent disaster losses such as hurricanes—because of concerns over rate reductions and legal battles. However, since about 1996 insurers have begun to take a more active role in loss mitigation, such as through building codes.[23]

Limited risk of catastrophically large losses: Insurable losses are ideally independent and non-catastrophic, meaning that the losses do not happen all at once and individual losses are not severe enough to bankrupt the insurer; insurers may prefer to limit their exposure to a loss from a single event to some small portion of their capital base. Capital constrains insurers' ability to sell earthquake insurance as well as wind insurance in hurricane zones. In the United States, flood risk is insured by the federal government. In commercial fire insurance, it is possible to find single properties whose total exposed value is well in excess of any individual insurer's capital constraint. Such properties are generally shared among several insurers, or are insured by a single insurer who syndicates the risk into the reinsurance market.
In managing the claims handling function, insurers seek to balance the elements of customer satisfaction, administrative handling expenses, and claims overpayment leakages. As part of this balancing act, fraudulent insurance practices are a major business risk that must be managed and overcome. Disputes between insurers and insureds over the validity of claims or claims handling practices occasionally escalate into litigation (see insurance bad faith).
Insurance involves pooling funds from many insured entities (known as exposures) to pay for the losses that some may incur. The insured entities are therefore protected from risk for a fee, with the fee being dependent upon the frequency and severity of the event occurring. In order to be an insurable risk, the risk insured against must meet certain characteristics. Insurance as a financial intermediary is a commercial enterprise and a major part of the financial services industry, but individual entities can also self-insure through saving money for possible future losses.[15]
