This delicate body scrub is everything when it comes to love and self-care.
I live smack dab in the center of Canada. Our winters are long as hell and at times, as cold as minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit. As a result, dry skin is suffered by anyone and everyone. I do a weekly body scrub to try to stay on top of my skin care as much as possible during this season. I usually keep things really practical and reuse my organic coffee grinds to whip up a stimulating and exfoliating scrub. However, this month's celebration of love inspired me to flirt with some beautiful feminine ingredients. I absolutely adored the treatment and even more-so the results.
This DIY body scrub is sweet, luxurious, and leaves you with a silky smooth complexion that glows for days. The pink hue is all-natural and is created by the hibiscus tea. The natural acids in hibiscus help to purify and restore your complexion by breaking down dead skin cells and controlling breakouts. Here, I've paired it with a fine sugar for optimal exfoliation, jojoba oil for targeting that dry skin, and raw honey for its antibacterial and anti-aging super powers. The result is my new favorite body treatment.
Honey Hibiscus Body Scrub
*Makes 2 body treatments
- 1 Tbsp. hibiscus tea
- 2 Tsp. raw honey
- 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp. fine organic sugar
- 2 Tbsp. jojoba oil
- Optional: a few drops of essential oils, such as lavender
Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
Apply the scrub to damp skin in the shower and massage it in using gentle circular motions. Start from the feet and work your way up to the face. Rinse off and enjoy the beautiful results.
Store leftovers in a glass, air tight jar and keep in a cool, dark spot.
Don't forget to sit back and relax too!
While you've got your hibiscus tea out, try this nourishing latte with bone broth and hibiscus tea. If you're looking for more DIYs, check out these beauty treatments: Rose Water Toner, Rose Oil Elixir, and DIY Matcha Mask with Rose Milk Bath.

Artest, Martin help Kings spoil Bibby's return to ArcoFeb 21, 2008 - 7:11 AM By Tom Galland PA SportsTicker Contributing Writer
SACRAMENTO, California (Ticker) -- Four days after the trade that sent him to the Atlanta Hawks, Mike Bibby was back on the hardwood at Arco Arena.
Ron Artest scored 29 points and Kevin Martin chipped in 26 as the Sacramento Kings held off a strong effort by Bibby in a 119-107 victory over the slumping Hawks on Wednesday night.
Bibby finished with 17 points on 6-of-10 shooting in his second game with Atlanta but couldn't prevent the Hawks from dropping their sixth straight outing.
"It's going to take a little bit of time," Bibby said. "This was only the second time I've really played with them. The first practice I had was probably about five minutes and then we played the Lakers (Tuesday) and then (Sacramento)."
"Obviously, offense carries you a long way, but when it's all said and done, we held them to 17 points in the fourth and that is what won the game for us," Kings coach Reggie Theus said.
Artest, as usual, played a key role in the defensive effort with three steals and a blocked shot while holding Hawks leading-scorer Joe Johnson to 16 points.
"It has a lot to do with team defense," Artest said. "Definitely without help on screen-and-rolls, you can't really stop anyone one-on-one. It has a lot to do with team defense and guys having my back. Lately guys have been picking it up. We want to make the playoffs, so that's important."
Francisco Garcia hit three 3-pointers in just over three minutes between the third and fourth quarters to put Sacramento on top by six with nine minutes remaining.
Artest followed with a driving baseline dunk and added a layup with 6:33 left to cap an impressive 13-2 stretch that put the Kings in control at 108-96.
Artest hit 9-of-12 shots in his third straight stellar performance. He is averaging 28.0 points despite the trade rumors that have been swirling for weeks.
"I don't know anything about a trade deadline," Artest quipped. "I'm going to go get some sushi. I have no comment."
"Nothing's going to happen," Garcia said. "We're good. We're going to be OK."
Bibby, the last connection to the Kings' team that fell to the Lakers in an epic seven-game Western Conference finals in 2002, was greeted with a standing ovation by the Arco crowd following a pregame video highlighting his memorable moments.
"It made me smile," Bibby said. "A lot of good things happened while I was here and the fans were a big part of that and I appreciate that. I woke up early and I couldn't go back to sleep. You could say I was anxious."
"He deserves it," Artest added. "I hope when he comes next year it'll be a little louder, a little longer. He's a big part of history in Sacramento. He was a major contributor to that team. It was well deserved."
After missing all four of his 3-point attempts in a blowout loss to the Lakers on Tuesday, Bibby was back on target, converting 4-of-5 from the arc against his former club.
"It was different," Martin said. "It was my first game playing without him. We were out there joking. Life goes on, I guess."
Josh Childress came off the bench to score 18 points to lead the Hawks.
Artest and Martin combined to pour in 38 points on 11-of-13 shooting to lift the Kings to a 62-60 advantage at the break, which featured 15 ties and nine lead changes.
"The last two outings we've given up 122 against the Lakers and 119 against the Kings," Hawks coach Mike Woodson said. "We're not going to win that way. We scored enough points but somewhere along the line we've got to start defending and rebounding the ball."

...that Darwin is DEAD? That somewhere along the lines evolution ground to a halt, and we're sliding backwards? Once medical science was able to overcome Survival of the Fittest, and people too stupid to breed were brought back from the brink, it began. When the good ole boy whose last words should have been "hey man, watch this" is saved, and good people die of cancer or car accidents--the balance is out of whack. The gene pool is decidedly cloudy these days.

A mode of creative expression painting can be done in numerous forms. Gestural painting, drawing, composition, narrative art, abstract art are a few among many aesthetic forms. A painting serves to manifest the painter's expressive as well as the conceptual intentions. While taking the case of both Eastern and Western arts, a swathe of painting history is well dominated by motifs and ideas of spiritual character.
The term painting, as far as art is concerned, describes the act and the end of the action. The heart of painting is obviously the rhythm, something described as an incorporated pause in a sequence. Creative force is effectuated by such pauses to intervene as well as add fresh creations. A given art work exudes significance through the form distributed through it or any sort of information provided.
Grotte Chauvet paintings of France believed to be about 32,000 years old, are considered as the oldest paintings. Red ochre and black pigment are the material used to engrave these art work. They show animals such as horses, lions, rhinoceros, mammoth, buffalo and lions among abstract designs that appear to be partial human figures. Nevertheless, Northern Australia's Arnhem Land boasts of the earliest act of painting as evidences suggest.
In the present times, students of this art form that learn how to discuss it, alongside explaining the differences happening between realism and abstract, and also pointillism tend to discover great modern artists of yesteryears as well. This is quite similar a process as learning about math, geography and history. As they move along their graph of student life, a good part of them would have discovered an art portfolio of their own featuring their works in the style of some of the famous artists of the world.
French artist, Claude Monet who lived between 1840 and 1926 was an outstanding artiste that helped contribute to the painting world a style called impressionism. This relates to what the artist feels or sees rather than painting something the way it looks exactly. His short brush strokes along with the dabbles, colour splashes, light apprehension and reflection have been quite famous. The Japanese Footbridge is one of his famous paintings.
Born in Pennsylvania in 1928, Andy Warhol had moved to United States with his parents from what is known as Slovakia presently. Often a sick child and having spent a lot of time in sickbed, Warhol drew many pictures besides listening to radio and collecting images of celebrities. It was during the 1960s that the gentleman started creating what he is ideally known for today. His paintings included massive pictured of dollar bills, Coca Cola bottles and soup cans of Campbell's besides pictures of celebrities.
Vincent Van Gogh who had excelled during the second half of the nineteenth century was a Dutch artist. In his short life time he created some great paintings. About 800 paintings of Van Gogh were made in the last ten years of his life. One way the legendary artist showed motion in work was by making colour lines swirling in concentric circles or rings, spread into the background. Starry Night is a master piece of Van Gogh and all his works display light rings surrounding stars in night sky. Deep and bright colours were used by Van Gogh who brought subjects to life through whirling brush strokes.

Noel Beltran
Noel Beltran has had a prosperous career in insurance, recently as President/CEO of Contractor Source Insurance Services. Insurance has been a passion for Noel for the past 22 years. In 2009, he transferred to Premier Agency Inc., and maintained a $3.3 million premium book of business. Noel transitioned to real estate four years ago joining the Carlile team for a new and exciting challenge.
Noel was a go-getter since he was a young boy. In 7th grade he knew he had to work hard for what he wanted; nothing was going to be handed to him. He decided to get a paper route so that he would always have his own money. This sense of independence drove Noel to work hard each day. Today, Noel and his wife, Tara, are the proud parents of two young children. The weekends are spent at either baseball, soccer, swimming or cheer leading. Tara currently attends McGeorge School of Law and is expected to graduate in Spring 2018.

His knowledge in more industries than real estate sets him apart from others. Noel likes to work hard but have fun and never takes himself too seriously.

The Royal Chapel of Granada is a Gothic style building, constructed between 1506-1521 by the architect Enrique Egas.
It is the burial place of the Catholic Monarchs, Queen Isabella of Castile and King Ferdinand of Aragon.
The church contains a gallery of artworks and other objects related to the Catholic Monarchs.
We can admire a couple of tombs in the main altar of the church:
- The tomb of the Isabella I of Castile and her husband, Ferdinad II of Aragon. It is a work by Domenico Fancelli.
- Another tomb of Joanna of Castile "the Mad" and her husband, Philip of Austria "the Handsome".
The most important parts inside the temple are the main fence, the mail altar and the crypt with the coffins.
Inside the sacristy-museum is the legacy of the Catholic Monarchs: personal objects and the amazing collection of Flemish painters (Hans Memling, Vand der Weyden, Dierick Bouts).
*** TIP: We do recommend our private tour to the Royal Chapel of Granada.

The International Energy Agency's newly released World Energy Outlook finds that oil demand for passenger vehicles is slated to peak in the mid-2020s due to more efficiency, biofuels, and electric vehicles. That's according to their "new policies" scenario, which models not only existing policies but also countries' announced plans and emissions targets.
But, but, but: That projected mid-2020s peak doesn't mean that overall global demand for crude oil is reaching an inflection point anytime soon. That's because other uses — petrochemicals, heavy freight, shipping and planes — remain robust.

Professional writers freely admit that their biggest challenge is writing communications that are actually read and acted upon. Granted, reader apathy is a universal problem, but it is also one that haunts even the most accomplished writers.
Obviously, content plays a part in this, but the bigger reason lies in the fact that readers in the Business World are constantly inundated by print and electronic messages from all corners of their organizations. That said, it should not be surprising that many important communications are routinely ignored or lost in this deluge.
The problem with Information Overload in business offices has become so pervasive that many professional essay writers find themselves resorting to gimmicks in order to make their communications stand out. (The increasing use of non-standard fonts and quirky formatting is testament to this).
Granted, this kind of gimmickry may be eye-catching, but whether it actually enhances readability is debatable at best. In light of this, the best strategy is to stick with the basics and compose letters, memos, and reports that are written clearly, succinctly, and with a single purpose.
These basic elements of effective writing may seem quaint and irrelevant in our modern "multi-tasking" world, but nothing can be further from the truth. Simply put, the sharper the focus of your writing, the better are its chances of being read and understood.
Conversely, when readers are forced to "mine" through lines of copy just to extract information that is germane to them, most individuals will quit reading the communication long before they get to the relevant "stuff".
With this in mind, here are ten tips to consider when drafting any Business Communication:
1. "Market" Your Subject
Capitalize the Subject Line and use enticing language, e.g., "New Vacation Policy" will grab more attention than "Benefits Update".
2. Economize Your Language
Jargon and boilerplate may make the communication "sound" official,but these also tend to unnecessarily lengthen and obscure the message.
3. Stay On Message
Resist mixing topics unless there is a reason to do so. While it may be useful at times to link related topics in one communication, e.g., Sales & Marketing, mixing unrelated topics will more than likely leave readers confused over the true purpose of the communication.
4. Be Specific
Clearly state the purpose of the communication. If dates and deadlines are part of the communication, highlight and announce these in the first paragraph.
5. Use A Conversational Tone
Keep in mind that overly formal language is a turnoff. Conversely, communications filled with slang and colloquialisms will not be taken seriously.
6. Keep It Simple
General communications should be written for a broad readership. Technical Communications should be reserved for a specific audience.
7. Keep It Short
Limit most letters, memos, and general announcements to a page or two. For more substantive communications, such as reports, include a summary page.
8. Make It Easy On The Eyes
Break up text blocks with paragraphs and bullet points. Few readers will tolerate "slogging" through unbroken text.
9. Be Logical
Organize information or points in descending order of importance. Don't leave it up to readers to prioritize things.
10. Reality Test
Have others critique the communication before publishing. Your writing may seem clear and understandable to you, but it's usually a good idea to have others verify this for you.
In the end, be mindful that even the best-crafted communications can get lost in the Sea of Information Overload. However, writers who compose communications that are brief, focused and easy to read will stand out as something worth reading and, more importantly, acted upon.

This old glass vase of mine had a little crack in but I wasn't going to give it up just jet – nothing that couple coats of spray paint would not fix.
What's next on your spray paint list ?
I had this cute piece of fabric and I had big plans for it. I also had to face the facts and tell to myself that I am not as awesome in sewing to make these big plans come true yet. So I tried to find other ways to incorporate it into my little nest and came up with an idea to spice up my plain bathroom with it.
When we moved in I bought some very cheap shower curtains for a shop similar to dollarstore. I think they cost about 1,50 euros each and were just as thin as cheap. Now since I had one of those left I thought it would be perfect to use for this DIY.
So I sew the fabric onto the shower curtain. As I said before my sewing is quite crap right now (work in process) so it is far from perfect, but the bathroom looks still so much better.
Down here you can see how it looks on both sides.
I think it is pretty good for a transitional shower curtain – well this is what I like to think as I'm waiting anxiously for us to have our own place.
What have you done to spice up your place lately?Hope this Monday will not be too blue for you!
I stumbled up on this page the other day 100happydays.com and it was exactly what I needed. A reminder that every day has something to offer and that you just need to crab it and hold onto the feeling and why not make a memory of it as you go along. So a week ago, on the very day I found the page, I started my own 100 happy days. This is what I have been loving the 6 days.
Day 1 – So happy not to have to worry about dinner. I'm not an awesome cook and rearly even enjoy the cooking specially during the week when I'm so tired after a long day at work. So going for fast food sometimes feels like heaven.
Day 2 – I love to bundle up in my bed in the evenings ti browse some blogs or another Pretty Little Liars episode. A cup of tea maybe a candle and definitely comfy PJs.
Day 3 – A goofy T-shirt. Loving to get new stock in the store. I always get carried away with kids clothing and wonder to whom I could get the coolest items from the rails. This one just made me smile.
Day 4 – Developing photos. Maybe I'm oldschool like that but I love the feeling of holding pictures in my hand and I also want these memories to be there for the future generations :).
Day 5 – Happy to be home. Although I spend so much time at work I could call it my second home, coming back in the evening, tired as hell – the feeling you get when you walk in the door. My little nest, my hideaway.
Day 6 – Valentine's Date – On the day of love me and D had a lovely dinner in a cute restaurant with a beautiful view and delicious food. Here is the dessert part of the evening
So this is my week in a nutshell. Are you following 100happydays.com? I would love to see what is keeping you happy throughout your days.
Hope you are having an amazing weekend!
Don't get the wrong idea. Office as in Miss S's Office. See once upon a time I was dreaming about working from home, so that home would be my office, hence the title.
Now that I finally got the main piece for my living room – the couch, I have so many ideas to go further from here. I took a picture of this nook that has kind of grown on me lately.
Hi everybody! I wanted to share this DIY project with you today. This is for all of you who are trying to make the best out of your rental places without investing too much money in it.
I hated my cabinets from the moment I first layed my eyes on them. They were old and broken and looked tired overall. Painting them over wouldn't probably helped me out there. Also my kichen is very dark so I wanted something to reflect the light a little better. The outcome isn't perfect and I need to do some bits over, but I was really exited to share the idea with you right away. Cuz it's so simple and fun.
Also forgive me for the pictures are odd looking dark and low quality. I took the pictures during day time, I tried with and without the flash, with and without the lamp. Nothing really worked well enough, but here they are anyway.
I printed out a bunch of recepies, attached them onto the cabinet doors with a glue stick and covered them all over with a clear sticker, the one you can use to cover up your notebooks and books for school usually. Can somebody help me out and say how do you really call this thing in english? Do you have a special word? I think it cost me about 4 euros in total and had some extra even left over.
If you have been keeping an eye on my blog before, you probably know that spending isn't on my list right now, far from it. But sometimes things don't quite go your way and that's exactly what happened to me. I had a dilemma between getting our own place a bit sooner or living like a normal couple with some real furniture right now. I picked the last from these two.
Last year, when we moved to this flat we didn't have much. There was almost no furniture also in the flat so my sister gave us a tiny sofa for our living room. Not very comfy and surely too small for a room like that. We managed somehow living with it. Until I decided that enough was enough and gave it away to somebody who found a better use for it. This happened around christmas time. After that I just used the mattress from a single bed that the owner left in. I was thinking to make like a pallet couch kind a thing until I found out that we're going to have to move out soon. So we put the mattress back on a bed frame just so it would be little bit higher. It looked terrible, I didn't want to stay in the room even and it's for sure not comfy but I figured it was only temporary.
Suddenly out of the blue it turned out, that we can stay in our flat for another year at least. And all I can think about is that it can't stay like this for any longer. I mean, could you live without a sofa or a couch? So I found this lovely couch for us. We are gonna go for a darker colour. Can't wait to have a living room that looks like one at last.

As being the company of growing Cannabis Dispensary for medical use grows, serious consideration has to be made available to methods of improving crop generate, automation, and lowering the expense of developing. Probably the most avoidable causes of shed income inside a hydroponic dispensary are a form of fungi known as powdery mildew.
Powdery mildew is a very common fungus, and is well known to many people farmers and gardeners. It creates a particular problem to growers of Cannabis Dispensary, nonetheless. The fungus infection thrives inside an atmosphere noted by high humidity and middle collection conditions. Sadly, this may cause Cannabis Dispensary plants very venerable to powdery mildew, since these are also the circumstances below which cannabis grows finest. Plants and flowers which can be contaminated with powdery mildew and mold will exhibit bright white spots which will at some point spread out to pay the vegetation or else handled. As being the fungus will continue to multiply, the mildew and mold could eventually deal with the plant, eliminating it in the process.
Naturally, a fungus infection on this selection might cause significant amounts of injury with regards to the crop produce and earnings of your medical dispensary. Certain kinds of professional fungicide exist that will destroy of the mildew well before it progresses too much. Regrettably, these chemical compounds may possibly be used during certain levels from the life cycle of Cannabis Dispensary plants and flowers without badly influencing their own health. In the conducive surroundings that a hydroponic dispensary gives, a single grow that gets contaminated with powdery mildew will rapidly allow it to distribute to other people, enhancing the general business expense of working with these fungicides. Either in event, the conclusion profit is minimizing into by the existence of this fungus.
One option for medical Cannabis Dispensary dispensaries that want to avoid troubles with mildew is setting up industrial quality air flow filtering solutions. Huge potential air purifiers that employ among far more co2 filters can eliminate fungus and mildew and mold spores through the atmosphere prior to these people have a possibility to increase on plants and flowers, lowering the chances of disease distributing to the crop. This too creates a far more healthy work environment for dispensary workers, who may well otherwise be open to the fungus spores. Numerous business air cleaners will also be equipped with sun lights, which may neutralize fungus spores in the air flow and additional stop mildew and mold infestations.
As with all tree branches of agriculture, the Downtown Los Angeles Cannabis Dispensary developing enterprise will likely transfer toward greater style and output as time passes. In numerous other crop vegetation, picky hybridization and specific precautionary substances have mainly been able to reduce crop failures on account of mildew. Nonetheless, hydroponic dispensaries encounter their very own distinctive group of issues, as they generate best growing situations for powdery mildew and mold. Till further improvements enable plants to become created that are far more resistant to this fungi, revenue damage as a result of mildew and mold in medical Cannabis Dispensary dispensaries will certainly be a actuality in the enterprise, and another that suppliers must be mindful of.

Fedora Merge Review: qt
Initial Owner: firstname.lastname@example.com
Guidelines-wise, looks good, only a few relatively small SHOULD (optional) items
to consider:
* icons. SHOULD try to follow icon-spec here, and put items in/under
%_datadir/icons/hicolor/ somewhere instead of using %_datadir/pixmaps
* .desktop files: using namespace/vendor of qt-* *and* using '3' appended to
.desktop file names is redundant. Consider removing the '3' from the .desktop
file names.
* consider changing qtdir from %{_libdir}/qt-3.3 to just %_libdir/qt3. It would
then be consistent with qt4 packaging. This is a big change that may induce
pain in other packages that currently hard-code the old location, so it may not
be worth it.
* -devel-docs subpkg SHOULD:
1. should simply be -doc (corrolary: and have no dependency on -devel)
2. assistant should be included here.
* SHOULD avoid some of the multilib ickiness, and necessity to use
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/qt*, by simply using
./configure -libdir %{_libdir}
ie, putting qt's libs into %_libdir directly.
qt4 has been using these latter 2 items with success.
(In reply to comment #1)
> * -devel-docs subpkg SHOULD:
> 1. should simply be -doc (corrolary: and have no dependency on -devel)
> 2. assistant should be included here.
I think this would break designer Help->Manual menu
> I think this would break designer Help->Manual menu
How so? It would be no less broken than the current situation (or when
qt-devel-docs wasn't installed).
Considering there are no MUST blockers, I'll mark qt as approved.
We can address the SHOULD items post-merge-review.
good to go, closing...

Part III – 12 Telephone Tips When Contacting Customers
It's an art form mended and shaped over time by experience only. The art of conversation can and does build great relationships. Mark Hunter, "The Sales Hunter", works with companies and sales people who want to find and retain better customers. To learn more visit www.thesaleshunter.com. I hope you've enjoyed Mark's guest articles these past three weeks. All of these articles have great take-aways to help us perform at a higher in 2009. This last piece is a refresher we all need about tips when talking to our customers. Enjoy!
1. Never ask if it's a good time to talk. This gives the other person a perfect excuse to end the call. I you are unsure the person has time to talk, immediately state that the call will only take 3 minutes. When you give the person an exact time, be sure you stick to it. After the allotted time has passed, tell the customer and ask them if they would like to continue or reschedule. Using this practice allows you to demonstrate that you respect their time.
2. Ask questions. People will never hang up on themselves.
3. Use the person's first name at least 3 times in every phone call. Who doesn't like to hear their name said?
4. When greeting people on the telephone, avoid using their last name. It makes the call seem too formal. Your objective should be to have a casual conversation, in the same way you would talk to a good friend.
5. Use visually descriptive words to help paint a picture of what you're saying. A phone conversation doesn't have to be boring and stale.
6. When starting a new telephone conversation, always give your first and last name. Never assume the person you're talking to is going to recognize your voice or think you're the only one with your first name.
7. Watch your expressions by placing a mirror in front of you when you talk. It's amazing how they come through over the phone.
8. Add energy to your phone calls by standing up. People who have good posture tend to come across more enthusiastic than those who don't.
9. When you finish a conversation, always summarize it in the same way you would end a live meeting. By doing so, you can prevent misinterpretation of your discussion.
10. Always allow the other person to have the final comment or question. Just because you've asked all your questions doesn't mean the other person has asked all of theirs.
11. Avoid negotiating over the phone. Use it as a means of introducing, following-up on, or confirming information. It's impossible to truly read body language over the phone so you lose a major negotiating tool. A phone call, however, can be an excellent way to introduce a new idea you would like to receive some feedback on. Many times, it will allow criticism to be gained in a less threatening manner than if it were to occur in a traditional sales call.
12. Never use a speaker phone with a customer, even if they say it is permissible. Speaker phones add to the perception that the conversation is not important enough to capture 100% of your attention. (The only exceptionj is when thre is a gouip involved.)

My son and I were in complete uniform while traveling, so it was obvious we were scouts. We were seated and placed our orders. About 10 minutes later, our waitress came up to our table and told us that another customer had noticed us as being scouts and had paid our dinner bill for us.

.. titutionalisation was not acceptable or possible. The traditional social support networks found in the close knit occupational communities were also missing due to the decline of the close knit community. This was taken one step further when in the eighties, the desire to privatise public enterprises and reduce public expenditure, including industrial subsidies led to a rapid decline of manufacturing in the early 1980s and led to historically high levels of unemployment. Which as we have seen weakens a communities social support network. Over the last twenty years the main way social policy has responded to these problems is by encouraging the development of community care initiatives, these can be split into two main categories Care in the community and Care by the community.
Care by the community mostly applies to the elderly and puts emphasis on informal care by friends and family. Formal care plays a vital supporting role however, and enables friends and family care for the person with services such as home help and meals on wheels. Care in the community is quite different. This applies mostly to those with mental or physical disabilities or conditions and usually involves people with similar types of disability living in the same home, with varying degree of intervention by nurses or carers depending on the severity of the disability. This care differs from the old style institutional care because where the units are smaller the individual should ideally be able to live a more normal lifestyle. Each resident should be allowed some choice over their actions and schedules and the integration into the surrounding community is encouraged.

The government has a great deal of control over communities and it is important to understand that today they are often active creations. In the 20th century many attempts have been made to construct communities and today the type of community found in different areas is greatly influenced by social policy, legislation and the allocation of funds carried out through central and local governments. In the 1940s New Towns such as Milton Keynes were built to relieve the pressure on older urban locations which were fastly becoming congested and overcrowded. Politicians and planners worked together to try and create the community spirit they saw as being so desirable. Part of their thinking was to achieve a social balance as they saw single class settlements as socially undesirable and politically dangerous, they attempted to do this by accommodating social groups roughly in proportions according to the national average and provided a variety of housing types, sizes and tenures. The town would provide a wide range of jobs and would not be dependent on one industry.
The objective of the new towns were for them to become a microcosm of contemporary British society (Aldridge 1979). The success of this varied between places although in general the governments utopian ideal was slightly unrealistic. The people who moved to the new towns were typically middle class, and skilled manual workers were over represented nearly everywhere. The age range of people was also quite limited because most of the migrants were young families. More importantly Deakin and Ungersons study of migration out of London to New Towns showed migrants were drawn from areas and social groups not predominantly in greatest need therefore the majority of those living in the inner city areas the New Towns were designed to relive were still there. The selective pattern of migration could even be seen as worsening the problem of inner city areas by concentrating further the disadvantaged groups there. Extreme deprivation is a problem that faces many places in Britain.
Often in inner city areas but not always it is seen in districts or neighbourhoods where people are not getting the same chances in life due to a range of social problems. Unemployment, crime, poor housing and living conditions, single parents, vandalism, hooliganism and racial harassment all create a poor standard of life in which people are trapped. New Labours idea as to how to regenerate neighbourhoods that are deprived in this way is the Social Exclusion Unit. Set up in 1997 and based in Downing Street, its aim was to improve peoples standard of life and to give everyone equal chances in life. The National Strategy for Neighbourhood Renewal. Is an attempt by the New Labour government to develop integrated and sustainable approaches to the problems of the worst housing estates, including crime, drugs, unemployment, community breakdown and bad schools. The idea of the unit is not to provide easy solutions for the short term, but to target the grass roots of the problem, helping people to help themselves.
This idea is typically New Labour, a point somewhere between the value systems adhered to by the New right and the Old Left. In the booklet A National Strategy for neighbourhood Renewal : a framework for consultation produced by the government it has proposals as to how to revive communities in deprived areas. The first notion is to help residents to tackle problems that threaten to undermine the community by taking a hard line on anti social behaviour, using neighbourhood warden schemes (community policing) to reduce crime and fear and by improving housing letting policies. The second aim is to stimulate community activity, presumably to attempt to unite people and bring back some of the community spirit found in occupational communities. This will happen through encouraging more meeting places and opportunities perhaps with facilities and shops, and by premoting arts and sports in deprived areas.
Thirdly its aim is to get the residents themselves involved in turning around their neighbourhoods by making it easier for community and voluntary organisations to get funding and attempt to build on what they call community capacity and leadership. The units work falls under 3 main categories. Funding regeneration programs in deprived neighbourhoods, Giving New Deals to the unemployed, lone parents and the disabled, and ensuring coherence and a government united on the issues. 18 policy action teams were formed who were each assigned to different areas and projects. Their work fell under 5 broad themes.
Getting people to work, getting the area to work, building a future for young people, ensuring everyone has access to public services and making the government work better. Community usually tends to be used as a warmly persuasive word and nearly always in a favourable context. It is frequently championed as a source of identity, moral and social stability, shared meaning and mutual connotations, yet by nature it can also be seen to have forceful negative connotations. The first is a threat to identity. Plant et al 1980 and Nisbit 1967 saw the concept of community as a morally charged instrument of authority justifying state intervention in everyday life.
wiener 1981 and colls and dodd in 86 stated: Romantic and nostalgic thinking has often resorted to the invocation of a lost stable social hierarchy of community in order to justify socially repressive policies Because community is seen as something static it poses limits on identity controlled by tradition and passively accepted local culture. Even as a source of class based and anti establishment strength community can be seen as subordinating the individual for the sake of communal solidarity. So secondly community can be seen as a vehicle for the reproduction and perpetuation of traditional gendered social roles, -the nuclear family and the subsidiary role of women in a male dominated society. Good or bad, the idea of community is about the interaction between people, and it is important because it effects the way people think about themselves and produces their personal identity. Community is still a relevant notion in the 21st century although it is important to look past geographical boundaries and locality and instead see community in the broader sense of social networks. While it is clear that community is an integral part of human nature, its future and what shape it will take is yet to be seen.

Maddy Goes Jumping : Jane Smart, Helpline
We went on to do a further course of training which led us to Agility. Maddy had proved very good at jumping at home, so we thought Agility would be ideal and signed up to a short course. We both really enjoyed it and soon the whirling dervish was zipping through tunnels and over jumps. Next summer we plan to do some more and hopefully be able to complete a fun course at a show.
She is very quick to learn and her "trick collection" includes dropping her toys into a box AND putting on the lid, ringing a bell and she's in the early stages of learning a yoga pose! This might sound pointless, but dog's like to be stimulated mentally and Maddy loves a puzzle. At the start of learning something new, she'll often give me her full repertoire!
We spent a lot of time on her off the lead work, which is a vital area of dog training and often not well established in some we meet ! Her favourite walks include lots of ball throwing, digging mole hills and swimming for sticks.
Maddy wishes all her fellow Rescue Dogs a happy & much loved Christmas & New Year

Career is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as a person's "course or progress through life (or a distinct portion of life)". In this definition career is understood to relate to a range of aspects of an individual's life, learning and work. Career is also frequently understood to relate to the working aspects of an individuals life e.g. as in career woman. A third way in which the term career is used to describe an occupation or a profession that usually involves special training or formal education,[1] and is considered to be a person's lifework.[2] In this case "a career" is seen as a sequence of related jobs usually pursued within a single industry or sector e.g. "a career in law" or "a career in the building trade".
The etymology of the term comes from the French word carriere (16 c.) ("road, racecourse") which, in turn, comes from the Latin word "(via) cararia" (track for wheeled vehicles) which originated from the Latin word carrus" which means "wagon".[citation needed]
In economics, a commodity is a marketable item produced to satisfy wants or needs.[1] Economic commodities comprise goods and services.[2]
The term commodity is specifically used for an economic good or service when the demand for it has no qualitative differentiation across a market.[3] In other words, a commodity good or service has full or partial but substantial fungibility; that is, the market treats its instances as equivalent or nearly so with no regard to who produced them. As the saying goes, "From the taste of wheat, it is not possible to tell who produced it, a Russian serf, a French peasant or an English capitalist."[4] Petroleum and copper are other examples of such commodities,[5] their supply and demand being a part of one universal market. Items such as stereo systems, on the other hand, have many aspects of product differentiation, such as the brand, the user interface and the perceived quality. The demand for one type of stereo may be much larger than demand for another.
In contrast, one of the characteristics of a commodity good is that its price is determined as a function of its market as a whole. Well-established physical commodities have actively traded spot and derivative markets. Generally, these are basic resources and agricultural products such as iron ore, crude oil, coal, salt, sugar, tea, coffee beans, soybeans, aluminum, copper, rice, wheat, gold, silver, palladium, and platinum. Soft commodities are goods that are grown, while hard commodities are ones that are extracted through mining.
There is another important class of energy commodities which includes electricity, gas, coal and oil. Electricity has the particular characteristic that it is usually uneconomical to store; hence, electricity must be consumed as soon as it is produced.
Commoditization occurs as a goods or services market loses differentiation across its supply base, often by the diffusion of the intellectual capital necessary to acquire or produce it efficiently. As such, goods that formerly carried premium margins for market participants have become commodities, such as generic pharmaceuticals and DRAM chips. An article in The New York Times also discusses multivitamin supplements as an example of commoditization; a 50 mg tablet of calcium is of equal value to a consumer no matter what company produces and markets it, and as such, multivitamins are now sold in bulk and are available at any supermarket with little brand differentiation.[6] Following this trend, nanomaterials are emerging from carrying premium profit margins for market participants to a status of commodification.[7]
There is a spectrum of commoditization, rather than a binary distinction of "commodity versus differentiable product". Few products have complete undifferentiability and hence fungibility; even electricity can be differentiated in the market based on its method of generation (e.g., fossil fuel, wind, solar), in markets where energy choice lets a buyer opt (and pay more) for renewable methods if desired. Many products' degree of commoditization depends on the buyer's mentality and means. For example, milk, eggs, and notebook paper are not differentiated by many customers; for them, the product is fungible and lowest price is the main decisive factor in the purchasing choice. Other customers take into consideration other factors besides price, such as environmental sustainability and animal welfare. To these customers, distinctions such as "organic versus not" or "cage free versus not" count toward differentiating brands of milk or eggs, and percentage of recycled content or Forest Stewardship Council certification count toward differentiating brands of notebook paper.
Economics is the social science that seeks to describe the factors which determine the production, distribution and consumption of goods and services.
The term economics comes from the Ancient Greek οἰκονομία from οἶκος (oikos, "house") and νόμος (nomos, "custom" or "law"), hence "rules of the house (hold for good management)".[1] 'Political economy' was the earlier name for the subject, but economists in the late 19th century suggested "economics" as a shorter term for "economic science" to establish itself as a separate discipline outside of political science and other social sciences.[2]
Economics focuses on the behavior and interactions of economic agents and how economies work. Consistent with this focus, primary textbooks often distinguish between microeconomics and macroeconomics. Microeconomics examines the behavior of basic elements in the economy, including individual agents and markets, their interactions, and the outcomes of interactions. Individual agents may include, for example, households, firms, buyers, and sellers. Macroeconomics analyzes the entire economy (meaning aggregated production, consumption, savings, and investment) and issues affecting it, including unemployment of resources (labor, capital, and land), inflation, economic growth, and the public policies that address these issues (monetary, fiscal, and other policies).
Other broad distinctions within economics include those between positive economics, describing "what is," and normative economics, advocating "what ought to be"; between economic theory and applied economics; between rational and behavioral economics; and between mainstream economics (more "orthodox" and dealing with the "rationality-individualism-equilibrium nexus") and heterodox economics (more "radical" and dealing with the "institutions-history-social structure nexus").[3][4]
Besides the traditional concern in production, distribution, and consumption in an economy, economic analysis may be applied throughout society, as in business, finance, health care, and government. Economic analyses may also be applied to such diverse subjects as crime,[5] education,[6] the family, law, politics, religion,[7] social institutions, war,[8] science,[9] and the environment.[10] Education, for example, requires time, effort, and expenses, plus the foregone income and experience, yet these losses can be weighted against future benefits education may bring to the agent or the economy. At the turn of the 21st century, the expanding domain of economics in the social sciences has been described as economic imperialism.[11
The foreign exchange market (forex, FX, or currency market) is a global decentralized market for the trading of currencies. In terms of volume of trading, it is by far the largest market in the world.[1] The main participants in this market are the larger international banks. Financial centres around the world function as anchors of trading between a wide range of multiple types of buyers and sellers around the clock, with the exception of weekends. The foreign exchange market determines the relative values of different currencies.[2]
The foreign exchange market works through financial institutions, and it operates on several levels. Behind the scenes banks turn to a smaller number of financial firms known as "dealers," who are actively involved in large quantities of foreign exchange trading. Most foreign exchange dealers are banks, so this behind-the-scenes market is sometimes called the "interbank market", although a few insurance companies and other kinds of financial firms are involved. Trades between foreign exchange dealers can be very large, involving hundreds of millions of dollars. Because of the sovereignty issue when involving two currencies, forex has little (if any) supervisory entity regulating its actions.
The foreign exchange market assists international trade and investments by enabling currency conversion. For example, it permits a business in the United States to import goods from European Union member states, especially Eurozone members, and pay Euros, even though its income is in United States dollars. It also supports direct speculation and evaluation relative to the value of currencies, and the carry trade, speculation based on the interest rate differential between two currencies.[3]
In a typical foreign exchange transaction, a party purchases some quantity of one currency by paying with some quantity of another currency. The modern foreign exchange market began forming during the 1970s after three decades of government restrictions on foreign exchange transactions (the Bretton Woods system of monetary management established the rules for commercial and financial relations among the world's major industrial states after World War II), when countries gradually switched to floating exchange rates from the previous exchange rate regime, which remained fixed as per the Bretton Woods system.
The foreign exchange market is unique because of the following characteristics:
As such, it has been referred to as the market closest to the ideal of perfect competition, notwithstanding currency intervention by central banks.
According to the Bank for International Settlements,[4] the preliminary global results from the 2013 Triennial Central Bank Survey of Foreign Exchange and OTC Derivatives Markets Activity show that trading in foreign exchange markets averaged $5.3 trillion per day in April 2013. This is up from $4.0 trillion in April 2010 and $3.3 trillion in April 2007. Foreign exchange swaps were the most actively traded instruments in April 2013, at $2.2 trillion per day, followed by spot trading at $2.0 trillion. According to the Bank for International Settlements,[5] as of April 2010, average daily turnover in global foreign exchange markets is estimated at $3.98 trillion, a growth of approximately 20% over the $3.21 trillion daily volume as of April 2007. Some firms specializing on foreign exchange market had put the average daily turnover in excess of US$4 trillion.[6] The $3.98 trillion break-down is as follows:
A business, also known as an enterprise or a firm, is an organization involved in the trade of goods, services, or both to consumers.[1] Businesses are prevalent in capitalist economies, where most of them are privately owned and provide goods and services to customers in exchange for other goods, services, or money. Businesses may also be not-for-profit or state-owned. A business owned by multiple individuals may be referred to as a company.
Business can refer to a particular organization or to an entire market sector, e.g. "the music business". Compound forms such as agribusiness represent subsets of the word's broader meaning, which encompasses all activity by suppliers of goods and services. The goal is for sales to be more than expenditures resulting in a profit.
International business comprises all commercial transactions (private and governmental, sales, investments, logistics, and transportation) that take place between two or more regions, countries and nations beyond their political boundaries. Usually, private companies undertake such transactions for profit; governments undertake them for profit and for political reasons.[1] The term "international business" refers to all those business activities which involve cross-border transactions of goods, services, resources between two or more nations. Transactions of economic resources include capital, skills, people etc. for international production of physical goods and services such as finance, banking, insurance, construction etc.[2]
A multinational enterprise (MNE) is a company that has a worldwide approach to markets and production or one with operations in several countries.Well-known MNEs include fast-food companies such as McDonald's and Yum Brands, vehicle manufacturers such as General Motors, Ford Motor Company and Toyota, consumer-electronics producers like Samsung, LG and Sony, and energy companies such as ExxonMobil, Shell and BP. As show, the multinational enterprises can make business in different types of market. For example, Walmart sells food and clothes (Decarlo and Zajac, 2008).
Areas of study within this topic include differences in legal systems, political systems, economic policy, language, accounting standards, labor standards, living standards, environmental standards, local culture, corporate culture, foreign-exchange market, tariffs, import and export regulations, trade agreements, climate, education and many more topics. Each of these factors may require changes in how individual business units operate from one country to the next.
Leadership is both a research area and a practical skill, regarding the ability of an individual or organization to "lead" or guide other individuals, teams, or entire organizations. Controversial viewpoints are present in the literature, among Eastern and Western approaches to Leadership, and also within the West, on US vs. European approaches. In US academic environments Leadership is defined as "a process of social influence in which a person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task".[1] Leadership seen from a European and non-academic perspective encompasses a viewpoint of a Leader that can be moved both by communitarian goals but also by the search for personal power, as the European Research Daniele Trevisani states: "Leadership is a holistic spectrum that can arise from: (1) higher levels of physical power, need to display power and control others, force superiority, ability to generate fear, or group-member's need for a powerful group protector (Primal Leadership), (2) superior mental energies, superior motivational forces, perceivable in communication and behaviors, lack of fear, courage, determination (Psychoenergetic Leadership), (3) higher abilities in managing the overall picture (Macro-Leadership), (4) higher abilities in specialized tasks (Micro-Leadership), (5) higher ability in managing the execution of a task (Project Leadership), and (6) higher level of values, wisdom, and spirituality (Spiritual Leadership), where any Leader derives its Leadership from a unique mix of one or more of the former factors".[2]
Marketing is about communicating the value of a product, service or brand to customers or consumers for the purpose of promoting or selling that product, service, or brand. The oldest – and perhaps simplest and most natural form of marketing – is 'word of mouth' (WOM) marketing, in which consumers convey their experiences of a product, service or brand in their day-to-day communications with others. These communications can of course be either positive or negative. In recent times, the internet has provided a platform for mass, electronic WOM marketing (e-WOM), with consumers actively engaged in rating and commenting on goods and services.
In for-profit enterprise the main purpose of marketing is to increase product sales and therefore the profits of the company. In the case of nonprofit marketing, the aim is to increase the take-up of the organization's services by its consumers or clients. Governments often employ social marketing to communicate messages with a social purpose, such as a public health or safety message, to citizens. In for-profit enterprise marketing often acts as a support for the sales team by propagating the message and information to the desired target audience.
Marketing techniques include choosing target markets through market analysis and market segmentation, as well as understanding consumer behavior and advertising a product's value to the customer.
From a societal point of view, marketing provides the link between a society's material requirements and its economic patterns of response.
Marketing satisfies these needs and wants through the development of exchange processes and the building of long-term relationships.
Marketing can be considered a marriage of art and applied science (such as behavioural sciences) and makes use of information technology.
Marketing is applied in enterprise and organisations via marketing management techniques.
In business, outsourcing involves the contracting out of a business process to another party (compare business process outsourcing). The concept "outsourcing" came from American Glossary 'outside resourcing' and it dates back to at least 1981.[1][2] Outsourcing sometimes involves transferring employees and assets from one firm to another, but not always.[3] Outsourcing is also the practice of handing over control of public services to for-profit corporations.[4]
Outsourcing can also be viewed as any assistance from an intermediary that is more capable of or familiar with certain practices than us.[who?] It is just a way of seeking for assistance.
Outsourcing includes both foreign and domestic contracting,[5] and sometimes includes offshoring (relocating a business function to another country).[6] Financial savings from lower international labor rates can provide a major motivation for outsourcing or offshoring.
The opposite of outsourcing, insourcing, entails bringing processes handled by third-party firms in-house, and is sometimes accomplished via vertical integration. However, a business can provide a contract service to another business without necessarily insourcing that business process.
Outsourcing is a very important tool for reducing cost and improving quality.[citation needed] If an organization does one or all its work by itself, its work may affect its production quality. So, an organization must recognize some important areas where it can reduce its costs and maintain high quality in its products and/or services.
Real estate is "property consisting of land and the buildings on it, along with its natural resources such as crops, minerals, or water; immovable property of this nature; an interest vested in this (also) an item of real property; (more generally) buildings or housing in general. Also: the business of real estate; the profession of buying, selling, or renting land, buildings or housing."[1]
It is a legal term used in jurisdictions such as the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, India, Australia, and New Zealand.

looked like fun. that is my neck of the woods also. we were up there all weekend although not at the rally.
wentworth springs is my favorite road(along stumpy meadows).

Norcal BMW club 49'er Rally
Had a great Memorial Day weekend attending the BMW Club of Northern California's 49'er rally. We met up with FletchTech and rode around his stomping grounds for a couple days. Full narrative and more pics at: http://rhhall.smugmug.com/gallery/8349711_nhr6n
For the ride from Minden to Auburn we headed around the southside of Lake Tahoe, passing Horsetail Falls on Highway 50:
Took the back way towards Auburn, on Icehouse Road, passing Stumpy Meadows Reservoir
Approaching Auburn, we pass by the Foresthill Bridge, California's tallest at 730 feet.
After setting up camp, we took a look around and saw Beemers of all types and vintages. Here's an early airhead with Earles forks.
And an interesting temperature gauge mod on a 1st Gen K-1200GT:
That night, we watched the Speedway races, including sidecars. This was a hoot.
Saturday was time to enter the poker run. My friends Chris, FletchTech and wife, and myself and fiance rode together. We were literally in FletchTech's backyard, so getting lost wasn't a problem. Here Chris heads towards the next stop on his vintage R90S:
We did about 75% of the poker run, and decided to end the ride for the day by stopping at a winery. I picked up a nice Merlot, and then we headed back to the rally site. Here's where you learn to ride German bikes fast ... at Schnell School!
It was a great day for riding, especially if you stayed above 4,000 feet.
After shutting down the Bier Garten for the second night in a row, we awoke Sunday morning with a much reduced desire to ride. Good thing the trials competition was planned for the morning. We saw some bikes get ridden in places they weren't meant to be ridden, like this 1980's vintage Yamaha XS850 Special:
Or this airhead getting air:
An F-650GS getting both wheels off the ground:
Later in the afternoon, we went for a short ride to finish the poker run.
Some folks were having entirely too much fun on the poker run:
It was a pretty incredible coincidence that the route took us past one of our favorite vineyards, so we had to stop and sample a flight ... a bottle of Syrah and Port made it back to camp site this time. They didn't survive the evening.
The owner of the vineyard has a thing for Cushmans. They were made right down the street from where I attended college, so I like them too... GO BIG RED!
The last time we stopped here, the owner brought out a nitrous equipped Cushman:
We made it back to camp and had a great evening celebrating the weekend. Maria won an Olympic Stealth one-piece riding suit, which really capped a great weekend.

Purchasing an iPhone (take four)
I called the 800 customer service number. Surprisingly, the wait was very brief. That may be the ONLY positive of my entire encounter with AT&T Wireless.
I ran through the whole story yet again.
"Sorry sir, there is nothing I can do."
I lost count of the number of times that was offered up to me today as an excuse. The poor woman on the phone reached the same state as the woman in the store. They both knew I was right, but they couldn't do a damn thing about it.
I sure hope they were recording my conversation. I know she was taking notes because I could hear her typing. My only hope at this point is someone further up the chain reads it (or hears it) and decides to do the right thing. I'm sure that's a pipe dream, but I'll give it a few days.
So now its come down to four options:
1- I don't get an iPhone .
2- I pay twice the cost of the phone. F@#$ that.
3- I wait 16 months until my current contract is up.
4- I become a new customer with a new number and thus will be loved and cherished like a god.
What am I going to do? Don't know as yet.
I do know that I do not totally blame AT&T Wireless for this. I fault Apple in part for signing an exclusive with these idiots. I had hoped Apple would shake up the wireless industry… and they have in some respects… but not in the area that needed it most. So if someone ask me an opinion about AT&T Wireless, I think you pretty much know what the answer is going to be.

David Hume Kennerly Quotes
It was so bizarre. I will admit however that my 14-year-old son, Byron, really bugged me about finding out and I said, 'I can't tell you.' But he promised he wouldn't say. And, you know, at some point you have to show some faith in your kids. So I decided to tell him what it was. He didn't say anything about it, and I'm very proud of him. - David Hume Kennerly
