How Exact ERP wholesale software can help you
The benefits of Exact ERP wholesale software
Exact ERP wholesale software combines financial, ERP logistics and administrative business processes in one system.

You save costs due to smart inventory management software and benefit from reports and automatic notifications. You can choose to use Exact for Wholesale Distribution on-premises, or as a private cloud service, so you don't have to worry about maintenance.
The engine of your omnichannel strategy
Modern wholesalers have an omnichannel strategy. This means that in addition to your physical store, you also have an online presence. Digital wholesale trading is unquestionably here to stay. Clients expect online availability of relevant data, the option to order or to link their own digital processes.
Your ERP system is a single source of truthand works as the engine of all online activities. Exact for Wholesale Distribution operates as a central source of information from which your web store, EDI, and sales apps, among other things, acquire their data. That's why it's essential for a successful omnichannel strategy.
Warehouse management system (WMS)
Good inventory management software provides insight into goods' flows and is essential for a wholesaler. Excessive inventory costs money; too little inventory means you have to disappoint customers. The Exact Warehouse Management System (WMS) helps you automate your physical goods flow and optimise your logistical process.
With Exact WMS (a module for Exact Globe) inventory management software you always have access to real-time information, allowing you to provide improved service and reliable supply times.
Insight anywhere and anytime with Exact apps
We have multiple mobile apps for users of Exact ERP software for wholesale, whereby you get the maximum from your ERP software. And why not consider the Service Management app which helps take your service department to a higher level, or the CRM app, which provides insight into customer relationships, activities and appointments anywhere and anytime?
In the Exact app centre you can find intuitive apps, available for iOS, Android and Windows smartphones and tablets.

Telling Americans the truth about Medicare and Social Security is not fashionable these days. The AARP and others mislead and create a false sense of security while intentionally hampering the ability to find solutions.
Claim: We need to do this (make prospective changes): Medicare is going broke.
Fact check: Medicare has some financial challenges as the population ages and health costs increase. But it's not going bankrupt.
The program has enough money coming in from payroll taxes and other sources to fully pay hospital insurance costs until 2028, according to the latest Medicare Trustees report. And even after that, incoming revenue would be enough to cover 87 percent of these costs in 2028, gradually decreasing to 79 percent in 2040. Source: AARP
Enough money to pay claims for nine more years‼ Whoopee‼‼ If you are running out of money and your expenses are rising, you are headed for bankruptcy. The problem with the AARP and other groups and politicians is that they are incapable of taking a long-term view.
For the last eight years and before nothing has been done to make Social Security and Medicare sustainable so to say Medicare will be okay until 2028 is foolish; that is only eleven years away. And as the Trustees have said of both programs, the longer we wait to do something, the more draconian the changes will have to be.
The AARP and other organizations continually mislead Americans about Medicare and Social Security.
Read what the Trustees said in their last annual report. It calls for changes. Changes that the AARP tells it members are not necessary.
The financial projections in this report indicate a need for substantial steps to address Medicare's remaining financial challenges. Consideration of further reforms should occur in the near future. The sooner solutions are enacted, the more flexible and gradual they can be. Moreover, the early introduction of reforms increases the time available for affected individuals and organizations—including health care providers, beneficiaries, and taxpayers—to adjust their expectations and behavior. The Trustees recommend that Congress and the executive branch work closely together with a sense of urgency to address the depletion of the HI trust fund and the projected growth in HI (Part A) and SMI (Parts B and D) expenditures.

Subscribe To The Walking Dead's Robert Kirkman May Have Blurted Out An Epic Spoiler Updates
I've already subscribed
Major spoilers about both The Walking Dead TV show and comic book are below, so be warned.
What. The. Hell. The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman was on last night's episode of Comedy Central's @Midnight, and he dropped one of the biggest spoilers in the comic series as an example of a "fake spoiler" for the TV show. And considering it's an event that comic fans have been waiting for the AMC series to tackle, it's a complete brain buster that Kirkman haphazardly threw it out there for the world to hear. So did he just ruin things for Walking Dead audiences, or did he give us something new to obsess about?
@Midnight host Chris Hardwick, who also hosts the chat series Talking Dead, had "Walking Dead Spoilers" as a category, and though fellow guests Lauren "Maggie" Cohen and Josh "Eugene" McDermitt gave predictably humorous answers, Kirkman came out with this.
Eventually a character named Negan is introduced, and he's going to bash in Glenn's brains with a baseball bat called Lucille.
At that point, the audience hits a mix between surprise and revulsion, with a wave of groans being topped off by people screaming loudly. McDermitt is amused by the whole thing, but Cohen looks as if someone just shit in her cereal. I'm guessing she was aware of how the comic story went, but still isn't quite sure of where Kirkman and showrunner Scott Gimple are going to handle the live-action Negan storyline. I mean, no one knows where it's going in future seasons, but now it's even more unpredictable than before.
To give a little background here, the survivors of the TV show are presumably going to end up in the safe haven Alexandria, where things seem like they're returning to normal. That is, until the appearance of the sadistic and heartless Negan, who demands payment for safety. That tumultuous storyline in the comics eventually sees Glenn getting brutally murdered by a barbed wire-covered bat that Negan named Lucille. You can see it in the image below.
Now, we know Negan is definitely coming, and I know I was expecting Glenn to eventually meet his maker via sports equipment. But now that Kirkman has blurted it out on national TV, we almost have to assume that things will play out very differently in the show. Does that mean that Glenn will get killed in a different, but equally gut-wrenching, way? Or does this mean that Negan will be using his weapon of choice to explode a different character's headspace?
While you're thinking about it, check out the @Midnight clip below.
Kirkman and Gimple like to play things very close to their vests when it comes to details about The Walking Dead's upcoming storylines, and this is probably the most interesting reveal that either one has ever shared with the world. And it wasn't even real. Or was it? Dammit, Kirkman!

Kimbra Radiates Self-Worth In Her Artful New Video For "Goldmine"
No amount of precious metals could possibly outshine Kimbra in her excellent new music video for "Goldmine," which was released Wednesday afternoon. Draped in an opal jacket amidst an eerie black and white backdrop, the singer jolts and pivots in stop motion as streams of gold ebb and flow all around her. The figures and floes of precious metal seem to only grow and compile throughout the clip, but in one jarring scene the clip confirms what "Goldmine" has always stressed: what matters most is inside you, and our own self-worth is what's truly priceless.
"The process of gold is a fascinating metaphor for pain and suffering," Kimbra told Rolling Stone while discussing her hypnotic new video. "Gold must be refined in the fire before it takes on its true character. Much like life itself, we must be tested and refined before we can give from the deepest part of ourselves." The track is but one of many excellent efforts on her 2014 LP The Golden Echo, an album which saw the New Zealand-born artist collaborating with Thundercat and Bilal.
New Zealander filmmakers Chester Travis and Timothy Armstrong worked alongside Kimbra for the "Goldmine" visual, which was shot in an old Berlin factory and is entirely stop-motion with absolutely no CGI. Rolling Stone goes on to report that roughly 400 square yards of aluminum foil and 700 polystyrene spikes were used as props for the video.
But what's most memorable is the message. "We hold immense power within us and I love how this is shown in the video through the use of all the different objects that manifest around me and, eventually, through me," Kimbra told the magazine. "I often think about how the world is ultimately all energy and that we are creators of that energy every day." Watch her new video for "Goldmine" below and pick up The Golden Echo on iTunes if you haven't already done so.

ADHD and Autism at Walt Disney World
"Hi. I am looking to take my nine-year-old boy to Walt Disney World, but I am finding it all very daunting. He doesn't really like rides and waiting in queues is almost impossible. Loud noises and too many people result in meltdowns, but he does love Disney. Is it worth taking him, and if so, how can I make the visit magical?"
This is a great question. It's not one I'm real familiar with. So I asked Shannon from Destinations to Travel (Dad's travel agent partner) if she had an agent with experience that could answer this. Nancy Castillo, one of the agents for Destinations to Travel sent me and answer, and I'm just going to read it. It's a really, really good answer.
Dad's Destinations to Travel PageHere's Nancy's answer. "Disney is magical for everyone, and I think it's absolutely worth taking your son." I agree with that. "There are some things you can do before you leave that will make your trip more enjoyable.
First of all, I would suggest you purchasing a pair of noise blocking headphones. You may already have those. You can get them on sites such as Amazon, very reasonable price. They come in different colors. Let him pick his own color. Your son will be able to watch fireworks, parades, and stage shows and not be overwhelmed with that noise stimulant. He may find that he just likes wearing them in the parks, too. That way to get rid of some of the crowd noise and some of the noise that goes on."
"Take advantage of Fast Pass Plus with your three attractions. You can also consider Rider Switch." If you have a party and somebody doesn't want to ride, you go to the ride. You tell them you want to do Rider Switch, and some of your party can ride. Then when they get done, the rest of your party can ride. It's a cool little thing. Disney's done this for years. They used to call it Baby Swap, but now it's called Rider Switch. That can really help if he's got a ride that he can't go on.
Dad's FastPass+ page"When you arrive at the first park of your trip, go to guest relations. There you can request a Disability Access Service, DAS pass. DAS is designed for exactly like your son, for individuals that have problems with queues, with lines or have mobility issues or just can't stand in lines."
"How DAS works is, you go to the ride, you go to the FastPass+ entrance. You say, "I've got the DAS." They tell you when to come back to ride the ride. Then you come back at your appointed time, jump in the FastPass+ line. Boom. You're right in the line. You've got to go to guest relations when you're first there. The DAS will be good for your while trip. Start with that. If you've got less than six, the whole party can stay together and ride the ride together."
Dad's Bottom LineThere are a lot of other tips she gives, but the bottom line is, Disney is really good about helping people in your situation. They go out of their way for people that have special needs. They really do help. If you can get the Disability Access Service, DAS, it will help you.
Thanks, Nancy, for the answer, and I hope that helps. There's a lot of things you can do. It is worth it. It's going to be fine. Just go at his pace. Don't overwhelm him. Take breaks. If he likes to go swimming, let him go swimming. If he likes to just sit in a cool dark room, go back to your hotel and sit in a cool dark room. Just take care of him. Do what he needs to do.

Hi pretties.
This is pretty much the furthest thing from a sex topic, but I'm compelled to talk about it anyway, because it's still a topic near and dear to my heart: rats as pets.
That's my chubby cuddly thing, Ewan. Not all rats are the size of Chipotle burritos, but I have this tendency to adopt really large boy rats. I like big ole cuddle monsters.
The tails squick a lot of people out, and I can sort of understand that. They're scaly, kind of weird, but you get used to them. Did you know their tails are actually covered in fuzz? They're really not so unpleasant after all, and they help rats balance when they're busy doing things like climbing all over their cage, sitting on your shoulders, or getting into trouble (like my laundry basket – always, ALWAYS a rat in the laundry basket!).
"Why rats?" I get that a lot! Did you know that rats have some of the best qualities of cats and dogs? Some rats are very playful and will even play fetch with you, while some are super cuddly and want nothing more than to lie on your lap while you browse Marvelous-Darling.com. Rats even potty-train themselves, and are able to hold their bladders while they're out with you. And generally, rats keep themselves very clean – some rats will even try to clean their owners.
What does it take to keep rats? A nice, big coated wire cage (I like CritterNation cages or Martin's Cages), 2+ rats of the same sex, quality food like a special lab block or a low-protein dog food mixed with non-sugary cereals, lots of toys, and at least 1-2 hours per day of play and physical exercise. Rats can be pricey, especially their vet care, but they're hands down the most loving and personable "pocket pets" you can have. If you're really interested in rat care, leave me a comment or get at me on Twitter!
Where are your rats from? A pet store? Nah. I adopted my boy, along with his now-deceased brother, from the Pittsburgh Rat Lovers Club rescue. Buying from petstores really unleashes a whole world of problems, including health and temperament issues, and funding irresponsible practices. You'd probably be surprised by the number of good breeders and rescues there are for rats, particularly in the US and Britain!
I know a couple of other bloggers out there keep rats. Anyone else? Have I changed anyone's mind on the furry little vermin? Anyone want to come play with Ewan? I'm sure he'd love the company!

Pioneers have started validating the prototype of the EAGLE learning solution in Ireland, Germany, Luxembourg and Montenegro. The aim of these tests is to find out which features of the portal users appreciate and how they work with it.
Validation partners from public administrations are given specific tasks based on their daily working routine, such as
- finding information on the portal,
- adding resources (OERs) to the portal,
- finding someone who can help with a difficult, rare task, and
- creating a group with people outside of the organisation.
Our EAGLE experts encourage users to continuously comment on how they perform a task and how they experience their interaction with the portal. This feedback is particularly useful, as EAGLE's scientific coordinator, Prof. Dr. Sabine Moebs, points out: "People from public administrations who actually interact with the platform provide valuable insights on the further development of EAGLE." Additional municipalities are welcome to test the prototype and to learn more about the overall EAGLE learning solution.
Card sorting: One method to make users structure the features of the portal in a meaningful way.

Wroclaw Airport
Wroclaw, Poland
A new terminal is to be added to Breslau Airport. Cost considerations led to a single-floor without passenger bridges being envisaged. A capacity of 2 million passengers a year is planned for the first building phase, and 7 million for the extension.
The terminal concept with its compact frame ensures quicker circulation for passengers and a clear layout for the interior. Externally the impressive reception hall with its characteristic V-shaped supports and the two-story glass facade gives Breslau Airport an unmistakable look.
The reception hall contains all the land-side facilities, such as check in, rental units for stores, eating places, car rental, travel agents etc. Additional amenities such as a conference centre, restaurant with observation deck and airport management are located on an easily accessible gallery level.

|No sooner than we stepped off the shuttle bus, we spotted this local zoo staff person promoting the venue to the ship's passengers while holding this baby croc. Its mouth is wrapped in a rubber band as shown.
|As we walked on the pier in Darwin toward the shuttle bus.
But then, we're not inactive. Since wearing my newly purchased FitBit a few days ago, although I haven't yet made the 10,000 hoped-for steps a day, I'm working my way up higher and higher each day as I take stairs instead of elevators and walk the "long way" around the ship when possible.
|The port of Darwin.
|Turning back to glance at our ship, Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas.
Once we settle in Bali in five days, we'll both resume our lower consumption healthy diets. In part I'm a little concerned it may be tough to stay active with a household staff of four who'll make the bed, wash the dishes, cook the food, leaving us only with the option of doing our own laundry.
|Tom busied himself chatting with the friendly driver on the shuttle to town.
|We assumed this was the entrance to a mall but found this entrance had yet to open in this new building. Walking around the next corner we easily found the huge outdoor mall.
Do we feel like a holiday/vacation is ending? In a funny way the answer is yes.
No, we don't go "home" to unpack, go through a pile of mail, catch up on bill paying and daily tasks. None of that applies to us.
|Surprisingly, there was a fair amount of traffic in Darwin, not unlike we'd experienced in New Plymouth, NZ.
But, the end of an cruise, always remains the end of yet another type of pleasurable event unlike any other in our day to day lives. Many times, passengers we've met have asked us if we'd like to cruise indefinitely. The answer is "no."
|A part of the mall was covered providing a shelter from the heat of the sun. Darwin has a tropical climate.
For us, nomads that we've become, the joy of our lifestyle seems to center around the constant change in location, lifestyle and surroundings keeping us entertained, educated and entranced.
With only four more nights aboard ship, we're winding down and beginning to focus a little attention on the future. With an upcoming whirlwind of travels over the next several months, visiting five countries in the next four months to include: Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand, we're enthused and looking forward to an endless variety of stories to tell and photos to share.
Hang on, dear readers. We'll be back with lots more!
Photo from one year ago today, April 26, 2015:
|A year ago on this date, we posted photos of our guide in Africa on photo safari. Tom and Anderson really hit it off. This was within moments of arrival at the dirt runway airport in the Masai Mara. For more of these photos we reposted a year ago, please click here.

Rakhi, you definitely hit the ball out of the park with this one. Even though I've been married 45 years, it will do me a bunch of good to re-read and reflect more deeply on your points. You've got a real gift, my friend!ReplyDelete
You are such a great blogger! May we have your permission to share this URL with couples when we prepare them for marriage in the Diocese of Gaylord?ReplyDelete
Thanks, Seth! Please feel free to provide the link as part of your resources. If you like, I can design a print version too. I'll msg Amy on FB in case this reply doesn't get to you right away. :)Delete
This is a great write!ReplyDelete
I'd love to hear your thoughts! Rest assured I do read each and every word, but please forgive me if I don't get back to you right away. The toddler tugging on my leg and the one year old pulling my hair may have seized control of my typing abilities. Blessings on your day!

Outstanding staff recognized on state level
Since 1991, the Ohio Provider Resource Association (OPRA) has annually recognized direct support individuals and teams from Provider Members that have demonstrated outstanding service and achievement in the DD field, and whose work has significantly impacted the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities.
Two CRSI program administrators nominated a total of one team and four direct support professionals. Two nominees received OPRA awards and all nominees are winners with CRSI.
Nominated by Cristin Schappert, program administrator for the Defiance Co. Regional Office are:
- Team Paulding, one of two Ohio winners of the 'Team' award.
- Elodia Wheeler, one of four Ohio winners of the 'Front Line Supervisor' award.
- Monica Heckel, nominated for the 'DSP' award.
Nominated by Ashley Brocious, program administrator for the Miami Co. Regional Office are:
- Mary Butt, nominated for the 'Front Line Supervisor' award.
- Chelsea Mumford, nominated for the 'DSP' award.
From the Defiance Co. Regional Office:
Paulding Co.: I (Cristin Schappert) am nominating Team Paulding County for its outstanding medical advocacy that can only be achieved by a group of direct support professionals who are exceptionally dedicated to the people they serve. The following account is just one example of how every member of this team is committed and exhaustive when it comes to supporting individuals, in order to ensure a quality of life that everyone deserves.
A female consumer with high blood sugars, congestive heart failure and stage-four kidney failure was admitted to the hospital when team members recognized her need to be immediately cared for by her medical staff. During her hospitalization, her support staff noticed that she was not being given the correct medications and when she was released, members of Team Paulding observed her to have another dangerous condition. They took her to the emergency room and to her physician four times in one week, relentlessly pursuing the treatment she needed to save her life. The doctors told the support team to prepare themselves for her impending death.
They refused to give up. A bowel blockage was finally noted and medications were adjusted. Three months later, her kidney specialist commented that she was surprised to see her. It was clear that the health care professionals were too quick to write her off, but due to the tenacity of Team Paulding, the individual is now at home and she is happy to be alive.
Williams Co.: Elodia Wheeler, support manager in Williams County has worked with two male individuals for four years. During this time, she has made a tremendous impact on their lives.
Both gentlemen spent much of their earlier lives in institutions where bad behavior was not properly dealt. When CRSI began providing services, both individuals displayed difficult to manage behaviors; such as throwing furniture, attempting to go AWOL, property destruction, inappropriate stripping, and rarely cooperating with routine hygiene tasks.
Then along came Elodia with her loving, supportive approach to home managing. She has adapted the home to ensure that it is a warm, clean, well-decorated place to live that meets the clients' needs.
A good example of her ingenuity is the kitchen clock. One of the individuals looked at it as a menacing object, relating it to his institutional living experiences. He would yell at the inanimate object on the wall and call it names. Elodia put colorful pictures of the gentleman around the clock, thus removing the threat it caused him and successfully stopping his behavior.
Elodia is extremely organized and on top of things when it comes to the health of both gentlemen. She ensures medical appoints are scheduled in a timely fashion and carried out, she puts a lot of effort into the necessary paperwork involved, and she effectively looks after their finances with routinely clean audits.
Today, BSP's for both individuals have been discontinued and when they arrive home from work each day, their first discussion is 'who is going to shower first'.
Defiance County: Monica Heckel is an outstanding support manager working in Defiance, Williams and Fulton Counties. She has extensive education and experience in the field and still loves to perform direct care and not just manage it. She is very outgoing and loves the challenges of redirecting behavior difficulties. She's never intimidated by BSP's and knows how to be successful under high pressure situations. She is the most trained in our region and has excelled at several different positions within the agency. Monica is well liked by the individuals she serves and is considered a valued employee.
From the Miami Co. Regional Office:
Shelby Co.: Mary Butt, program specialist in Shelby Co. is a true and effective leader for the direct support employees that she supervises. She has been trained in "Good Life" and uses that philosophy when training staff and during team ISP meetings. She is dedicated to working with people with developmental disabilities and takes pride in her work. Mary is always willing to help her peers and give ideas and suggestions and she jumps right in when she sees that someone needs help. Mary is a true professional and a valued employee.
Miami Co.: Chelsea Mumford, support specialist in Miami Co. is enthusiastic, energetic and motivated to bring happiness and a quality of life to the ladies she serves. She is always on the go with them and has accompanied them on every vacation since she's been with CRSI. She makes sure that their hair and nails are done before going to day habilitation or out to an event or appointment. She is also always willing to help out and assist her fellow staff members when needed. Chelsea is truly appreciated not only by other staff members and the individuals she serves, but also by their families and guardians. They love how much pride Chelsea takes in their loved one's appearance and her commitment to each person and their happiness.

File Format Guide for Your Digital Photos
When you take and store a digital image, you need to choose a file type, or format. Here are the popular choices when you choose a format for your digital photo:
|Camera Raw
|A format offered by some digital cameras. Stores raw,
"uncooked" data from the image sensor, without applying
normal adjustments to sharpness, color, and exposure. Gives
photographers ultimate control over images and editing flexibility,
but files must be converted to a standard format before sharing
online, printing, or viewing in most photo programs.
|The most popular digital photography image format. JPEG
compresses images to make files significantly smaller, but too much
compression reduces image quality. Used for print, the web, and
|The leading format for files that will be used in print
publications, such as newsletters and magazines. Preserves all
image data but usually results in larger file sizes than JPEG and
can't be displayed by web browsers and e-mail programs. The
best format for storing converted RAW files and for edited JPEG

Bradford ULTRA Protein Assay Kit
- Detergent compatible - no interference from protein extraction buffer
- Consistent results - less protein-to-protein variation
- Ready to use - no need to prepare or optimise solutions
- One single assay for protein quantitation
Bradford protein assay compatible with detergents and reducing agents
The Bradford ULTRA kit is a quick and easy to use Coomassie-based, colorimetric method for total protein quantitation. With this kit you no longer need to worry about the presence of detergents in protein preparations as the kit can accurately quantitate protein with up to 1% detergent present (1% high protein range, 0.1% low protein range).
Bradford ULTRA provides an improvement over classical Bradford formulations which cannot tolerate detergent contamination of protein samples. In addition, unlike BCA and UV methods this product tolerates reducing reagents and UV adsorbing chemicals.

I have received a flash drive of the SPSS program that has been bought from my college bookstore that comes with a Sage textbook. I have tried installing the program numerous of times and using different computers (Windows 10, Windows 8, and even a Mac), but every time I tried, the Error 1335 comes up stating, "The cabinet file 'Bas.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM or a problem with this package." I have tried copying the files and pasting them in a place on my local computer numerous of times, having it run as administrator, and I even had the Antivirus software disabled too sometimes for different tries. I tried looking for solutions on here and none have worked for me. It has been causing me stress and is very frustrating. I need this program for a class I am currently taking and will very soon be needing to use it. How can I solve this?

From George Washington to Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Reed, 25 December 1775
To Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Reed
Cambridge 25th Decr 1775.
Dear Sir
Since my last your favours of the 7th, & 11th as also the 8th are come to hand—the first last Night—the 2d by Wednesdays Post; for the several pieces of information therein contain'd I thank you.1
Nothing new has happened in this Quarter since my last, except the setting in of a severe spell of cold Weather & considerable fall of Snow; which, together, have interrupted our work on Litchmeres Point; which otherwise, would have been compleated before this. At first we only intended a Bomb Battery there, but afterwards, constructed two Redoubts, in one of which a Mortar will be placed at a proper Season—a line of communication extends from the point of Wood this side the Causey leading on to Litchmeres point quite up to the Redoubt; From Boston & Bunkers Hill both, We have receivd (without injury, except from the first case Shott) an irregular Fire from Cannon & Morters ever since the 17th but have returnd none except upon the Ship;2 which we soon obliged to move of—At the sametime that I thank you for stopping visitors in search of preferment, it will give me pleasure to shew Civilities to others of your recommendation—Indeed no Gentleman that is not well known, ought to come here with out Letters of Introduction, as it puts me in an aukward Situation with respect to my Conduct towards them.
I do not very well understand a paragraph in your Letter which seems to be taken from mine to Colo. Hancock, expressive of the unwillingness of the Connecticut Troops to be deemed Continental. If you did not misconceive what Colo. Hencock read—he read what I never wrote; as there is no expression in any of my Letters that I can either recollect, or find, that has a tendency that way; further than their unwillingness to have Officers of other Governments mixed in their Corps, in which they are not singular, as the same partiality runs through the whole.3 I have, in some measure, anticipated the desires of the Connecticut Delegates by a kind of Representation to each of the New England Governments of the impracticability (in my eye) of raising our Compliment of Men by Voluntary Inlistment, & submitting it to their consideration, whether (if the powers of Government were sufficiently Coercive) each Town should not be called upon for a proportionate number of Recruits;4 What they will do in the matter remains to be known. The Militia wch have supplied the places of the Connecticut Regiments behave much better than I expected under our wants of Wood—Barracks (for they are not yet done)—Blankets &ca—with these & such men as are Re-Inlisted, I shall hope, if they will be vigilant & spirited, to give the Enemy a warm reception if they think proper to come out. Our want of Powder is inconceivable—a daily waste, & no Supply, administers a gloomy prospect.
I fear the destination of the Vessels from your Port is so generally known as to defeat the end.5 two Men of War (40 Guns) it is said, put into New York the other day, & were instantly orderd out—supposed to be for Virginia.
I am so much indebted for the Civilities shewn Mrs Washington on her journey hither that I hardly know how to go about to acknowledge them. Some of the Inclosed (all of which I beg the favour of you to put into the Post Office) are directed to that end,6 & I shall be obliged to you for presenting my thanks to the Commanding Officers of the two Battalions of Phila. for the honours done her & me—as also to any others equally entitled.7 I very sincerely offer you the Compliments of the Season & wish you, Mrs Reed, & your Fire side, the happy return of a great many of them, being Dr Sir Yr Most Obedt & Affecte Hble Servt

Trump, Clinton Voters Divided in Their Main Source for Election News
Trump voters named one source more than any other as their main source of election news, whereas Clinton voters were spread across an array of sources.
New Hampshire Teaches National News Media a Lesson
It wasn't quite "Dewey Defeats Truman," but after the Jan. 8 Granite State primary confounded many of the pollsters and pundits, one of the key story lines that emerged in coverage of the McCain and Clinton victories was the media's proclivity to predict and pre-analyze the results.
The Media Verdict on the Iowa Caucuses is Loud and Clear
The media were busy anointing winners after the Jan. 3 Iowa caucuses. And the theme of change and surprise also resonated throughout much of the commentary. But a PEJ look at the caucus post-mortems finds that perhaps the most distinct aspect of the coverage was the certainty that something major had occurred that night in Iowa.

The five-tonne rock is a gift from the people of the Falklands to Welsh veterans of the 1982 conflict.
On Sunday it was transported on the last leg of the journey by part-time soldiers from a TA regiment.
It is hoped the stone will form the centrepiece of a veterans' memorial to mark the 25th anniversary of the war.
Falklands veteran Andy 'Curly' Jones found the stone at the base of Mount Harriet, near the Falklands' capital Stanley on a visit to the islands last March.
Mr Jones, a former Welsh Guardsman and secretary of the South Atlantic Medal Association in Wales (SAMA Wales), said: "I went back always with the intention of bringing a rock back home to Wales.
"But it wasn't until the last day just before we flew back that the rock appeared.
"I think it was like music and lights...the clouds parted and there it was a perfect shape".
The rock which stands seven foot high and almost the same distance in width is destined to be the centrepiece of a memorial which will honour all 250 from the UK forces who died in the Falklands war.
The stone was situated at the base of Mount Harriet, a famous battle site where Welsh Guards secured the start line for the British attack, and was moved from there by members of the armed forces now stationed on the islands.
On Sunday around 70 veterans of the conflict will gather at Brecon when the stone is brought on the last leg of its journey from Southampton by soldiers in the Royal Logistics Corps based at Maindy Barracks in Cardiff.
Mr Jones said it was hoped that the memorial with a plinth made of Welsh slate would eventually be erected at a site in Cardiff in time for the 25th anniversary of the conflict in 2007.
"It will commemorate the involvement of the taskforce but more than that its hoped it will be somewhere that wives, mothers, and girlfriends can remember all the boys who did not come home," he said.

Fees paid to real estate agents in connection with leasing space at a property. Leasing commissions may be due to a "tenant rep" which is an agent representing a tenant, or to a "landlord rep" which is an agent representing the property or landlord, or both.
Leasing commissions are typically calculated as a percentage of the total base rent a tenant will pay over their lease term or as a dollar per square foot per year figure. The full amount of the leasing commission is typically payable at the start of a new lease or at renewal of an existing lease, though the commission rates for renewals are typically less than those for new leases.
As an example calculation, a tenant rep may receive a leasing commission of 6.0%. If the tenant she represents leases 8,000 square feet at a rate of $12.00 per square foot for five years, the agent may be due $28,800 (8,000 square times $12.00 per square foot times 5 years times 6.0%).

Indian Food Tasting
We would like to extend a huge Thank You to Stanwix Tandoori for their very kind and generous donation of some delicious Indian food. As part of our whole school Multi-Cultural Week, Class 6 focused on India- they compared the British and Indian culture, recognising the similarities and differences between the two daily routines.
On Friday 2nd February, Class 6 were treated to a fabulous afternoon of food tasting. The children eagerly tried new foods and many of them discovered a liking for a range of spicy foods.

Breastfeeding Inequality: Not all Mothers get an Equal Chance
The World Health Organization points out that breastfeeding provides balanced nutrition for infants, helps mother-child bonding, and is linked to psychomotor and social development. Any mother who has ever breastfed their child will readily agree that these benefits are very real and vitally important. Unfortunately, many mothers who attempt exclusive breastfeeding will attest to the difficulties they encounter in a busy, modern world where many families live paycheck to paycheck.
And here's the thing:
The knowledge and practical support, invaluable to making a success of it, are not equally available to all mothers.
Few medical professionals or parents would disagree with the health benefits of nursing from the breast, yet there is an astonishing disparity between the rates of breastfeeding for well-off vs less well-off moms. The stark reality is that socioeconomic forces drastically affect breastfeeding rates.
Were you aware that only 38% of mothers living below the poverty level will breastfeed for six months. This is in stark contrast to moms coming from wealthier families, 68% of whom will breastfeed for six months. (Source)
We The Parents has created this infographic that clearly illustrates an important but not often discussed point; people from more affluent areas and who have financial security are more likely to breastfeed for the recommended period than their less fortunate peers.
Breastfeeding inequality needs to end. It is disingenuous to live in a world that routinely touts the benefits of breastfeeding while not providing equal opportunities for mothers to do so.
Here are just a few reasons that less well-off mothers find it more difficult to reach optimal breastfeeding goals:
- Less access to paid maternity leave
- Lower paid jobs that are less likely to allow for pumping breaks
- Inadequate maternity and lactation support in hospital
- Less effective family and community support
- A culture that doesn't unconsciously treat breastfeeding as a desirable status symbol
Everyone in society, whether they are a mother or not, needs to join forces. It is time to insist that all mothers have access to lactation friendly workplaces. To insist that all mothers are entitled to help when breastfeeding becomes difficult. To insist that all babies be afforded an equal right to health.
Let's make breastfeeding a way of life, not a privilege.

Neve is a breastfeeding advocate, proud mother of two, and an online entrepreneur. She writes at We The Parents where she aims to bring out the humor in parenting while empowering new parents to do it their way. You can catch her on Twitter and Facebook.

Creating a WordPress site is not a simple process. You need to purchase a theme, come up with an attractive design, and customize the theme to get that design. Unless you are both a web designer and developer, which is very unlikely, you need to get professional support to create a beautiful, functional WordPress site. What if there was a way to create a unique, beautiful WordPress site without purchasing any expensive theme or hiring a developer and designer? Sounds too good to be true, right?
Well, that just happened. Allow me to introduce CloudPress, the all-in-one solution for creating your customized WordPress site within hours.
This drag and drop theme builder solution comes with 100+ readymade blocks, 50+ custom elements, and unlimited customization options to help you create any website.
Let's find out more about these awesome website creation tool.
Creating a Website with CloudPress
You need a CloudPress account to create a website on the platform. Once you have created the account and logged in to your CloudPress account, you can create a new site by clicking the "+ Create New Site' button. On the next page, you will be asked to choose a name, language, and a theme for your website.
At the time of writing this review, there are 13 themes available. You can choose any of these themes or start with a blank theme. Once you have made the choices, click the "Create Site" button. This will create the project inside CloudPress.
When the site is created, you will be redirected to a page like the following –
Clicking the "Design the Site" button will take you to the designing screen. We will discuss that in the next section.
Getting Started with the Design
Once you have clicked the "Design the Site" button, you will be taken to a page like the following –
As you can see, there are lots of options here. On the top section, there are some buttons and icons. Let's take a minute to understand their purposes.
The first one is titled "Pages". This Shows the existing pages of your website. Then, "Add Blocks" allows you to add various sections to your website. "Add Elements" allows you to add individual elements to your website.
The next set of options include some buttons to test your website on mobile, tablet, and desktop resolutions. The settings button will open the page settings box.
On the right side, you will find three icons to get back to CloudPress dashboard, get back to your WordPress admin and check out the page preview. Lastly, the far-right corner of the page hosts the undo, redo, save, and close icons.
Now that you are familiar with the available options let's find out how to create a fully customized page.
Creating a Customized Page
Here, the first step is to choose the page you will customize. To do that, click the "Pages" button. This will open a sidebar containing the existing pages.
The pages are divided into three categories –
- Site pages
- Blog Pages
- Apps Pages
Each category includes several pages. You can customize any page you want. It is also possible to create new pages. I will cover that in the next section.
At this point, you have chosen which page you are going to customize. Each page comes with some default styling. You can keep or edit these according to your requirements.
The page is divided into several sections – header, content, sidebar, and footer. You can design any section by just clicking on that section.
You can add any block or element you want in the sections. To insert a block, click the "Add Blocks" button. This will open the available blocks.
The drop-down menu located at the top allows you to filter the blocks by different categories like header, navigation, slider, features, testimonials, clients, pricing, footer, etc. Choose your desired category and the related blocks will be displayed below.
There is a preview icon on the right side of each block. Hover your mouse over that icon and you can check out how the block looks on your site.
You can use the block on your website by clicking the "Use This …" button. Depending on the block you have chosen, there will be several elements. You can edit any of the elements by clicking on them. There will be options to choose the text style, background image, and to move, duplicate, or edit the element.
It is possible to add more sections and blocks before or after the block(s) you already added. To do that, click the "+" icon on the top-left or bottom-left corners of the block. When using more than one blocks in a single section, make sure that you are arranging them in the right order.
If you don't like the default block styles or want to create a unique design, you can do that by adding custom elements. You can add custom elements by clicking the 'Add Elements' button. This will show the available elements.
The available elements are divided into several categories like basic, common, social, widgets, blog posts, portfolio, team, clients, etc.
Find the element you want to use. Drag the element and drop it in your desired location. Depending on the element type, you can edit the text, color, background, size, etc.
While making changes, you can check the page on various screen resolutions by clicking the mobile and tablet icons above. It is also possible to check out the actual preview by clicking the preview icon.
Once you have made the necessary changes, click the "Save" icon on the top-left corner of the screen. You can customize the layout for each of your pages by selecting them from the "Pages" section on the top-right corner.
Creating a New Page/Template
Along with the default page and templates, it is also possible to create new page and templates for your website.
To create a new page, click the "Pages" section on the top-right corner of your screen. This opens the page listing. At the top of the listing, there is an article titled "Site Pages". There is also a "+" icon beside the title. Click on that icon. This will open a window for creating a new page.
You can provide a title, choose a parent, and set the page as the home page. Then, you can choose the layout for the page. The available layouts include full-width, full-width with a sidebar on the left or right sides, two sidebars, left or right sidebars, centered page, landing page, etc.
Once you have made the choices, click the "Create Page" button. This will create the page and take you to the editing screen for the page.
The same page also allows you to create a new template. To do that, click the "Create a new template" button at the bottom. This will lead to another window where you will be asked to provide a name and optionally, choose an existing template to start with.
Configuring the CloudPress Settings
To access the CloudPress settings, you have to get back to your WordPress dashboard. You can get to the dashboard by clicking the WordPress icon located at the top-right corner of your designing screen.
The settings options are located at the CloudPress -> Overview page. The page looks like the following –
The "General" section hosts links to design your site and check out tutorials. In "Site Settings" section, you will find options to define the name, title, and favicon for your website. You can provide your Google API key in the "API Keys" section.
The "SEO" section includes separate areas for editing your robots.txt and sitemap.xml files. In "Analytics", you can provide your Google Analytics ID. You will find your website transfer option at the "Transfer" section. I will discuss this in the next section.
Lastly, the "Apps" section allows you to enable or disable features like portfolio, team, clients, and testimonials.
Transferring Your Website
When I was discussing the settings options, there was a section titled "Transfer". There was a button titled "Download CloudPress Sync Plugin" on that section.
Clicking the button will download a zipped WordPress plugin. You need this plugin to migrate your CloudPress website to another host.
Download the plugin to your computer. Log into the WordPress dashboard of the new site. Upload and install the plugin. Once you activate the plugin, it will take you to a page like the following –
As you can see, there are two options available. Clicking the "Get from CloudPress" button will import your website data from CloudPress to your new site.
The "Send to CloudPress" button allows you to update any change you made in this site to your CloudPress project.
Other Interesting Features
CloudPress also comes with lots of other exciting features for creating attractive websites. For example, the platform supports all the third-party WordPress plugins. That means you can use other plugins for various purposes like adding Google Maps, contact form, analytics, SEO, etc.
Regarding navigation menus, CloudPress supports both horizontal and vertical menu styles. Thanks to the 20+ ready-made styles for drop-down menus, you can add as many menu items as you want. The menu works great on mobile and tablet devices as well.
There are several options to highlight your best contents. You can add a slider, lightbox, or carousels with different types of content. Each of these is provided with multiple styling options.
When it comes to effects, CloudPress doesn't limit itself within the traditional parallax and video backgrounds. Along with these, the platform also supports several rollover effects, box and text shadows, CSS3 transition effects, and dedicated one-page styling.
If you are planning to create a blog, you will find lots of customization options for each section of your blog. With readymade support for necessary features like comment styling, author info section, CloudPress offers a complete solution for creating beautiful blogs.
CloudPress Pricing
CloudPress offers four pricing plans –
- Single Site: For a one-time payment of $59.99, this plan allows you to create one website, includes access to all themes, and one year of support and updates.
- Starter: Priced at $11.99 per month, this plan allows you to create three websites, access to all themes, and professional support.
- Professional: Priced at $19.99 per month, this plan allows you to create ten websites and all features of the starter plan.
- Unlimited: Priced at $39.99 per month, this plan allows you to create unlimited websites and all features of the professional plan.
Final Words
Customizing a premium WordPress theme and applying your design used to be difficult tasks. Thanks to CloudPress that is no longer true. When using this service, you don't have to buy a theme for your website. Other tasks like creating new pages with custom styles have also become a lot easier. For all these reasons, CloudPress has become our top recommended tool for creating WordPress sites.
Now that you have read the review, what do you think about CloudPress? Will you give it a try for creating your next WordPress site?

Whenever you need a tree service in Brea, California, USA Tree Service Pros will get the job done right and inexpensively. Our highly-trained and experienced arborist staff works to make certain that you as well as your tree will receive the level of service that you deserve. Since we love it when customers send their friends and relatives to us, we will always give the tree its best possible appearance. The tree service itself is our area of expertise, but we also provide basic customer support skills like arriving on time. When you need any type of tree service within the Brea area whether it is tree trimming or tree removal, give USA Tree Service Pros a call at 888-202-2007.
If you have smaller trees and shrubs on your Brea, CA property, you may be able to do a little tree trimming work yourself. As routine as our professionals may make a tree service look, there are actually a lot of ways to end up butchering a tree. As the tree continues to grow older and naturally increase in height, power tools will also be required. Bigger trees also mean the need for utilizing these power tools on ladders, which can cause injury. As you are probably beginning to see, allowing an established team of arborists, such as the ones with USA Tree Service Pros is a much better option when having tree trimming done. If you are a fan of power tools and heights, we could understand why you might enjoy the thought of doing the tree removal in Brea by yourself, but you still need to determine if the chance of injury is worth it over a minimal amount of money.
Pruners and shears are two of the common tools we utilize when conducting tree trimming within the Brea, CA area. Both of these are used to make certain that we can work with different aspects of the tree to ensure that it ends up with a thoroughly sculpted appearance. With regards to tree removal, lots of people assume that merely using a chainsaw to bring the tree to the ground is all that has to be completed. Despite the fact that a chainsaw is utilized to cut the tree down, the roots that are buried deep underground do not mysteriously come loose when the tree hits the ground. The issue with the roots still being buried is that they will hinder the attempted growth of a new tree planted within the same area. With all of our tree service work, we also normally use ladders or bucket trucks as well as tree chippers to make the tree simple to haul away.
Our tree trimming agency is the go-to choice in the Brea, CA area for those who care about the appearance of their tree. Along with ensuring that the tree looks as professional as possible, we also present the most affordable rates. If you want to find out more about our tree service or to receive a quote, give USA Tree Service Pros a call at 888-202-2007.
Any team member in Brea, CA from USA Tree Service Pros will explain that trees can easily make or break the appearance of your home or company in the Brea, California region. Tree trimming and pruning are a couple of of the most crucial services to have completed at least annually as this helps the tree get its shape. Then, in the event that your tree has died or been struck by a storm, having tree removal performed as quickly as possible is also strongly suggested. It is always best to allow a Brea tree service company to deal with all of these tasks as they know how to complete them safely and they have already made the costly investment in tools and other equipment. Call our tree service company in Brea at 888-202-2007 today if you agree that trying these services on your own is simply not worth the risk.
When it comes to picking which tree service company you are going to hire to complete the job in Brea, CA, we believe customer care is one of the biggest aspects you should consider. This is why we always provide the utmost level of customer service. To back our claim, you will notice that we always show up in a timely manner, and our rates cannot be beaten. To really prove how much we care about clients, we will even show up in the middle of the night or on the weekend for emergency service if your tree is badly damaged or leaning out of control.
Even though customer service is very important, a tree service agency in Brea, CA will be unable to get the job finished without the appropriate tools. Several sizes of ladders along with cherrypickers are a couple of of the most crucial tools every tree business should have. Tree trimming providers should also have chippers, or they will have a very difficult time when it comes to hauling the pieces of a tree off. In addition, tree trimming companies should have easy access to a variety of pruners and shears since these are what really shape the tree. Stump grinders as well as chainsaws will also be taken to the jobsite by any tree removal enterprise that has any degree of experience. The main reason companies need a stump grinding tool rather than just a chainsaw is they need a way to pull the roots from the ground. Any arborist working for our company has access to all of this equipment, and they are trained on how to correctly use it to achieve the greatest results.
Although we do not doubt many of you around Brea, CA are extremely coordinated and good at using tools, we would hate to see you ruin your tree's appearance over trying to save a little money by not hiring a tree trimming firm. By allowing USA Tree Service Pros to take care of your tree service needs, you will always be treated with respect, and your tree will, too. Make sure you give us a call today at 888-202-2007 to plan a tree trimming or other type of service or if you have concerns.Mescalero tree trimming is another location that we service so make certain to browse our other main cities.

The aim of life is appreciation;
there is no sense in not appreciating things;
and there is no sense in having more
of them if you have less appreciation of them
Gilbert K Chesterton
Feeling grateful or appreciative of
someone or something in your life
actually attracts more of the things
that you appreciate and value into your life
Northrup Christiane
Appreciate the good things
The sunshine feels so much warmer
after weeks of rainy days
Your loved ones seem so much more
precious whenever they've been away
You truly appreciate and value your
good health after recovering from a
difficult and prolonged illness
You learn new respect for financial discipline
after working your way out of a burdensome debt
It's easy and natural to appreciate the good things
after you've experienced life without them
Yet sadly, that can often be too late
How much better it is to appreciate
the good things you have while you still have them
For then, not only can you appreciate them,
you can put them to positive and productive use
So begin each day by counting your many blessings
Pay particular attention to the ones that are so much
a part of you that you might otherwise take them for granted.
True abundance and gratitude are solidly linked
The more you appreciate the good things,
the more numerous they will be
Ralph Marston
Appreciative words are the most
powerful force for good on earth!
George W Crane
To appreciate heaven well,
it's good for a person to have
some fifteen minutes of hell
Will Carleton
