While all companies are believed to be legit, they have only been soft checked, meaning that I did a quick search to see if there were any negative reviews or ratings. As is always the case, you need to do your due diligence (research the opportunity extensively) before enrolling in any business opportunity or applying for any job.
Create a working name. You could even do this before you have an idea for the business, and if the name is good, you may find it helps you define your business idea. As your plan grows, and things begin to take shape, the perfect name may come to you, but don't let that hinder you in the early phases. Create a name that you can use while you plan and don't hesitate to change it later.
With many of the business ideas we'll explore in this post, you may not be shipping your products, but you still need to cover the cost of shipping. Consider your shipping costs and how they will vary in the different countries you want to serve.
Though certainly not for everyone, recycling the containers from products left strewn around on the ground can become a surprisingly decent side business idea if you put in the time. Attending events like street fairs and outdoor concerts can be a great starting place. Put on a clean shirt, jeans, apply your sunscreen, grab a cheap pick-up tool like this one, sturdy plastic bags, and you can sell them for upwards of $4.00/pound on eBay.

1. Study the market. When a product idea dawns on you, first you must situate it. I recommend searching through Google Images and Google Shopping. Do similar products exist? Study them carefully. What benefits do they offer? Consider your point of difference. Does it offer a benefit consumers truly need or want? Read Amazon product reviews for further insight. Search for prior art as well. (Your goal is to understand the history of innovation as it relates to your concept, not to prove it's never been thought of before.) If you find your idea in a patent but not on the market, do further research. What happened?
Most home based businesses do not succeed. That is just the truth of the matter. There are a few new home based businesses every year that are really successful, however. All you can do is work hard and try your best.

You will need some expertise to get going in antique refurbishment, but some skills can be learned fairly easily, such as stripping off old paint or varnish, and refinishing. I would suggest you get started refurbishing antiques for others. Eventually, you may want to buy antiques on spec and refurbish them to resell for a profit, but get to know the market before you start laying out cash for antiques.
Investment: You can reduce your initial costs by starting small and part-time. Besides needing a professional camera, lighting equipment and editing software, costs may include website setup and marketing, and hiring photography assistants.
So, you start out with some stunning jewelry designs but how do you turn it into a business? One of my friends' sisters turned her jewelry hobby into a full-time job by selling her products to a few local jewelry stores. Another woman I know built her business into a much larger enterprise…all built around a strong unifying theme. That's the key here, success will come a lot easier if you build a distinctive overall brand, and ideally have closely matched collections within the brand.
Contrary to popular wisdom, real estate prices don't always go up and catching the trends can tremendously amplify your success in this market. One of my business school classmates caught the trend just right in the Houston commercial real estate market, and then did the same in Boston. Another business school classmate took advantage of the huge 2008 real estate sell-off by scooping up thousands of homes in particularly hard-hit areas like Las Vegas with his hedge fund. The safest way to buy real estate is to make sure that your cash flows from current rents will justify the minimum return you need, then you can look at any appreciation as pure gravy!
If you're thinking about starting a business, you likely already have an idea of what you want to sell, or at least the market you want to enter. Do a quick search for existing companies in your chosen industry. Learn what current brand leaders are doing, and figure out how you can do it better. If you think your business can deliver something other companies don't (or deliver the same thing, but faster and cheaper), you've got a solid idea and are ready to create a business plan.
Find resources. Depending on the structure and size of your LLC, writing an operating agreement can be difficult. As mentioned above, you should hire an attorney to look over your document for best results. However, your state may have other resources for LLC members, such as form operating agreements or copies of the default rules.

A merchant account is a contract under which an acquiring bank extends a line of credit to a merchant, who wishes to accept payment card transactions of a particular card association brand. Previously, without such a contract, one could not accept payments by any of the major credit card brands. However, the Square has changed that, so don't feel locked in or limited to this option. Do your research.
Shop around local banks to see what's out there. Local banks and credit unions usually have fantastic customer support, so we'd recommend looking into some award-winning Colorado-based banks like Alpine and Bank of Colorado.

Like to grow vegetables? Focus in on one vegetable and sell the excess to grocery stores and at farmers' markets. My father does this with tomatoes and earns some solid extra money during the summer months. You can do really well, though, if you can grow things inside during the winter – February fresh tomatoes can sell quite well.
This is a great part time business that can pay very good money. For my kids, I hired coaches who were usually still students themselves, and had very little paid test prep experience. But I did make sure to hire test prep coaches who had scored exceedingly well themselves on the exams being targeted. You don't have to be good at every subject. Just find one exam that you can study up on and excel at, and that's all you need to become a great test prep coach!
When my Rolex needed repair, I was determined to save some money so I went to an independent repair service. I visited his shop in Ft. Lauderdale and it was a relatively large operation with half a dozen technicians or so serving not just the local community, but shipping watches back and forth all over. Then there is my father's grandfather clock which I just arranged to have shipped to me. Just to have it shipped, I needed an expert clock service to take it apart, and then on the receiving end I needed another expert service to put it back together. You get the point…there's lots of demand here!

A woman must learn to fall in love again after returning to her own time in Fosdick's (The Accidental Wife, 2015, etc.) time-travel romance sequel.
Jessica Brewster thought she was done with traveling through time. Almost three years ago, this modern woman spent four months roughing it in 1886 after magically replacing her look-alike great-great-grandmother Jessamine. As she tried to fit in and keep her real identity secret, she fell in love with Jessamine's husband, Mitch, and over that summer, she learned "what it meant to love, really love in a heart-thumping, tear-jerking way that would shred priorities." Now returned to the present day, and separated from the man she loves by more than a century, she lives in a remote Wyoming cabin, raising the person she brought back with her: their son, Scout. But then food and other small items start disappearing from her home. When Jess accidentally shoots the thief responsible, wounding him in a way that results in amnesia, she notices that the man looks just like Mitch. Could he have found a way to reunite with them, even through time? Fosdick cleverly reverses the roles in this sequel as she continues Jess' romantic tale. At first, Jess and the wounded man struggle with the fact that they're effectively strangers to each other. But as their love blossoms and fragments of memories return, she starts to feel that something's off. As Jess tries to dig up the truth about what happened to Mitch, the book grounds readers in wonderfully detailed, fully researched history. The book's second part transports readers into a related story, set in Meirliún Manor in Ireland, involving the forbidden love between a servant and the daughter of the family he serves. Some parts of the story drag a bit, and readers of the first book may question some of Jess' decisions in this one. However, Fosdick adroitly resolves her situation and thematically ties the various plotlines together to deliver a satisfying conclusion.
A transporting and satisfying read that offers a fanciful twist on its genre.

Sorting table dates in a Vue CLI project
Posted in Javascript on October 9, 2019
Sorting dates in a table was in my experience always a pain. You just don't think about it and assume it will work out. Well it does, as long as the format of your dates is like 2019-10-09. However, if we show dates in another format, for example 9-10-2019 or even Wednesday, October 9, it stops working. In this post I'll show how to handle sorting dates in non standard formats using the jQuery Datatables plugin and the Vue Tabulator plugin.Read more

Using WordPress as API for Laravel (2) – Connecting Laravel to WordPress
Posted in PHP on May 8, 2019
This is the second post on using the WordPress as API for a Laravel application. We describe how to setup the authentication, so that Laravel can retrieve the posts and pages created in WordPress. We use this setup in a project that was originally created in WordPress. It already had a lot of content, and also for new posts WordPress was the prefered choice, because of its great features to manage posts, revisions, comments and images. At the same time, Laravel is our prefered choice to build the custom features of the project, because of its great flexibility.Read more

Brine shrimp are aquatic crustaceans that belong to the family Artemiidae of which there are several genus. They thrive in the salt lakes but strangely enough do not exist in the oceans. As juveniles they are full of lipids and unsaturated fatty acids making them an ideal food for juvenile fish and fry but as they mature the nutritional value lessens so many fish keepers will feed them up with other foods to provide more nutrients to the fish. The eggs can lay dormant for many years waiting for the right conditions before they hatch out, this has the advantage of protecting their species when climates are not suitable for them or if the salinity in the water is too low.
Hatching out the Brine Shrimp
There are many commercial hatcheries available to purchase but they can be quite expensive. It is just as easy to make your own and still get good hatch rates. All that is required is a 2ltr pop bottle and some airline and away you go.
To create the hatches, simply cut away the bottom third of the bottle to act as the base and then invert the top piece of the bottle , with the lid tightly screwed on, and place it into the bottom section.
Add your water and aquarium salt to a salinity between 1.020-1.025.(this works out roughly to 1.5 tablespoons per ltr of water)
The water needs to be constantly moving so place an airline into the water and add a flow restrictor valve as the stream of air bubbles needs to be toned down to a small but steady flow.
Only use quality eggs, the hatch rate will be much higher, add a small ammount to the water and place the hatcher to one corner of the room. There is no need to heat the water but they do hatch best at a room temperature of 26 degC.
Hatching should occur between 24-36 hours and when the airline is turned off the cysts should float to the top leaving the baby brine shrimp at the bottom. Allow 10 mins for the egg cases to float before syphoning off the brine shrimp for use.
When I ran my fish house I set up 3 bottles this way and added a new batch of eggs in rotation, this supplied me with food for the fry everyday. Any brine shrimp that were surplus to my requirements were simply placed in an ice cube tray with de-chlorinated water and frozen for use in the future.
If you do find that you are having problems hatching the eggs there are a couple of tricks to help you out,
Adding a small ammount of baking soda to the water will help to soften the egg cases thus making hatching easier.
Place a lamp near your hatchery to slightly warm up the water, it maybe that the room temperature is too low.

Because Orlando is full of theme parks and attractions that make the city unique, it's easy to go beyond the chocolate hearts and flower bouquets this Valentine's Day with a special celebration like no other. From walking around a festival to dinner and a show with a twist, here are a few ways to take your day to the next level.
Take a Vintage Water Tour at Disney Springs
The BOATHOUSE, located in The Landing at Disney Springs, offers daily tours around the lake via amphicar that allows guests to explore Disney Springs landmarks in a unique way. However, you can make the experience even more special by upgrading to a Venezia Champagne Tour. Set out on the lake in a vintage 40-foot Italian water taxi for a romantic cruise around the lake complete with chocolate covered strawberries and a champagne toast! 30 minute tours cost around $75 per person and 60 minute tours are around $115 per person. You can also book a Venezia Wine-Tasting Cruise, which includes an hour-long tour accompanied by delightful pairings of award-winning wines and hors d'oeurves and a complimentary souvenir wine glass. Wine tasting tours are only available on weekends and cost $225 per couple. You can make reservations for any of these three experiences by calling (407) 939-2628.
Spend the Day at a Festival
Special events and festivals always make for memorable dates because it's not something you can experience any day of the week. At Epcot, art lovers can explore some of the finest visual, culinary and performing arts at Epcot's International Festival of the Arts. The annual event celebrates creativity of all kinds with Disney inspired art on display, unique food studios and Disney on Broadway performances daily. On February 14, guests can watch performers Kissy Simmons and Alton Fitzgerald White from The Lion King on Broadway light up the stage at the America Gardens Theater during one of three performances (5:30 PM, 6:45 PM, and 8:00 PM). Learn everything the event has to offer with this guide to the 2019 Epcot International Festival of the Arts!
Busch Gardens' longest running concert series Real Music, Real Masters is currently running at the park with different performances each week through During the week of Valentine's Day (February 11 – February 16), there's a unique opportunity to take in an amazing performance of Ballroom With A Twist. "America's favorite touring dance show" is the newest addition to the festival lineup. The show is made up of talented performers from Dancing with the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, and American Idol. Performances take place twice daily, at 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM.

Enjoy Dinner and a Show Like No Other
One of the most unique things about our favorite theme parks is that they all offer a mix of unbeatable entertainment and a variety of awesome restaurants, taking the traditional "dinner and a show" date night idea to a completely new level! At Disney World, all four parks offer a reserved seating + dining package to select shows including a brand new package for IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth at Epcot. In honor of the show's farewell season at the park the new dining experience includes a prix fixe dinner on the Rose & Crown Dining Room patio which offers awesome views of the World Showcase Lagoon, where the evening spectacular takes place. In addition to unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, the menu includes an appetizer, entrée, and a dessert. Other packages are available for shows at Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios as well, which you can read about here.
Over at Universal Orlando, you can have a similar experience without having to pay for park entrance by attending an incredible performance by Blue Man Group in Sonos Theater at CityWalk. The show is an amazing mix of music, comedy, lights, technology, and of course paint. On Valentine's Day the show takes place at 8:00 PM, which leaves plenty of opportunity to start the evening with a delicious dinner at one of 25 different restaurants located at Universal CityWalk.
Music and a Picnic in the Garden
There aren't many places in the country where you could probably enjoy a date night outside in February, but you can take your romantic celebration outdoors at Leu Gardens. The 50-acre property allows for food and drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) to be brought into the so you can pack up a nice picnic, bring some chairs and blankets, and get settle at the Gardens to enjoy an evening of music during a Valentine's Day concert featuring Ricky and the Buzzcatz. The performance takes place on Thursday, February 14 from 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM. Purchase tickets now for $15 per person or when you arrive for $20 per person.
Take the Pressure Off With a Prix Fixe Dining Experience
Some people prefer a low-key kind of celebration, opting for a simple night out enjoying each other's company. Luckily, there are several restaurants on International Drive that offer an amazing dining experience without all the pressure of planning the evening. At Taverna Opa, located in the Pointe Orlando complex, the night's theme is "Forget Romance, Let's Dance!" and promises a pre-fixe menu in addition to belly dancers and other Greek-style entertainment. The menu, which costs $85 per couple, includes:
- Starters: Housemade Hummus, Marouli Salad, and Saganaki
- Entrée: A 22 oz Porterhouse and a 7 oz Lobster Tail
- Dessert: Loukoumades
Pre-fixe dining starts at $85 per couple, not including tax or gratuity. For guests looking to dine at Taverna Opa but do not want to take part in the pre-fixe dining experience, the regular menu will also be available from 12:00 PM – 11:00 PM. Reservations are recommended.
"Love is in the Air" at Tapa Toro as well. The tapas restaurant located in the Icon 360 complex on I-Drive is also offering a prix fixe dinner for two that provides the passion of Spain with an evening of delicious food and amazing flamenco dancing. The menu includes:

While organic electrochemistry can look quite different to a chemist not familiar with the technique, the reactions are at their core organic reactions.
Kevin D. MoellerSynlett, 2009, 1208-1218
Anodic electrochemistry is a powerful tool for generating radical cation intermediates and initiating new cyclization reactions. Like most electrochemical reactions, the transformations involve umpolungs. In this review, recent studies examining the intramolecular coupling of radical cations derived from enol ethers, vinyl sulfides, and ketene acetals with carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen trapping groups are discussed to highlight their synthetic potential.

Vanessa Romo has come a long way from hiding herself under baggy clothes and planning her next crash diet. She went from hating her body to becoming a model, which takes so much bravery in a society that constantly devalues large bodies and women of color. Putting yourself out there not only physically but emotionally is tough, I wanted to know how and why she did it. Romo was an unlikely champion for body positivity like most fat girls she grew up internalizing the idea that fat equals ugly and unloveable. It has taken her years to unlearn those attitudes and a lifetime to come to terms with the fact that what other people think about your body doesn't matter. Romo explains that when it's come to opinions about her, she's heard it all. "I have people who say 'she's not even fat' and other people will say 'she's a fat pig' so it's really what you believe about yourself."
Romo is a Whitter, CA girl, a first gen-Chicana and UCSB graduate. Tired of the lack of body diversity and Latina representation in the media, she set out to try modeling despite her lifelong insecurities. "I wanted to prove to myself and to other people that this body type is beautiful," she explains. "I can't name a Mexican model – I really want to be the representation as a Chicana woman."
At the beginning of 2016 she decided to go for it. "I was sending out full body pictures which was my first big challenge. I was never a selfie person, I always felt so awkward taking a picture of my body and I didn't know how to pose. I challenged myself because I needed to change that mindset. And I practiced and I got better at it." One of the things that struck me was Romo's approach to getting more comfortable in her own skin. She would set small goals and then work at overcoming that fear. She started out with full body shots, then crop tops, and more recently the bikini shot that garnered thousands of likes on her personal IG and through reposts. Romo says the response was both encouraging and unexpected. "What really shocked me was that so many people saw my body and saw this body type being portrayed as beautiful. That image shows that fat people can be beautiful AND fat."

🌞🌊My first time in a bikini… ever 👙& I'm fucking happy ✨I'm done hiding in shorts and tank tops when I go to the pool or beach. If you don't like it then mind ya damn business. #effyourbeautystandards #celebratemysize #gorditaYbonita #naturalmodelsla Thank you @gabrieldanny @gabrieldannyphoto for taking this picture of me and making me feel like I could be on the cover of a magazine one day 💗 I love you so much 💕
Since she was very young Romo remembers wanting to be thinner and hating herself for not looking a certain way. "It was in first grade when I realized that skinny girls were seen as more beautiful and acceptable. I truly thought I was so so ugly and it took a huge toll on my mental health. I was depressed a majority of my life." Like many of us who grew up watching telenovelas, Romo realized early on that being thin with blond hair and blue eyes was what she should aspire to be. "I'm not gonna lie," confesses Romo, "a lot of colorism I got was from my family, they'd be like 'oh look at that girl, she's so blonde and she's so pretty.' I thought it was the only way."
The shows we grew up loving sometimes featured alternative body types, but more often than not it was a light-skinned Latina character that was both tragic and unlovable because she was fat. Think Celina from Rebelde played by Estefanía Villarreal and Wendy from Amigas Y Rivales played by Angelica Vale. Two very beautiful white Latinas whose entire storyline revolved around their weight. Romo is not alone in this, most girls and women of color can't see themselves in the media they consume because diverse characters simply aren't there, "growing up and never seeing my body type represented made me feel like there was something wrong with me," she reveals. "There was so much fatphobia on TV growing up and it's amazing how much you pick up as a kid. It takes a toll on you without you realizing it."
According to the Center for Disease Control and National Association of Eating Disorders, "by age six girls start to express concerns about their own weight or shape. Additionally, around half of elementary school girls are concerned about their weight or about becoming too fat." Images in the media have a compounded impact on young girls of color who not only see their bodies as undesirable because of their size but also because of their skin/eye color and hair texture.
Colorism is an insidious and persistent "preference" in Latino media and culture, whose roots can be traced back to the internalized hatred learned through slavery and colonization (but that's a conversation for another article). Although this "preference" has evolved slightly to include caramel skin tones we still see a severe underrepresentation of Brown and Black girls. In the mainstream media, images of fat white women have begun to pop up more and more, especially with the popularity of plus size models like Ashley Graham and Tess Holiday. But still, fat brown women are eerily absent from commercials, magazines, and novelas. Romo wants to change that, "At the end of the day you have one body and you need to make the best of it. Don't let your body hold you back, let it move you forward. We need to unlearn all this hatred for our bodies."
I was surprised to learn that even within the body positivity movement there is still discrimination, but according to Romo there is still a pressure to conform within the movement. "You still have to be a certain way and that you still need to be quote on quote healthy, like what does that even mean? That's just a complete lie and invalidates the movement." She also recognizes her privilege, "I have it good in body positive community though, I have an acceptable fat body. I have it easier than a lot of girls with larger bodies." But ultimately Romo wants to pave the way for other Latinas to accept themselves and live their lives to the fullest, "we shouldn't have to wait until our bodies look a certain way in order to express ourselves. We need to do it now and enjoy life." Amen sister.
Currently Romo is working on a YouTube channel that will showcase fashion and body positivity for fat Chinanx. To see more of her pics and body positive inspo you can follow her on Instagram here.

PEORIA, IL: A coalition of groups plans at least two events this month to crank up public pressure against Caterpillar for selling bulldozers to Israel. The heavy equipment is used to demolish houses of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.
The Stop Cat Coalition, made up of 50 groups, is planning a press conference for Wednesday at Caterpillar's annual meeting in Chicago. An April 23 march and rally is also planned in Peoria. It will end at Cat headquarters, said Jeff Frank, a coalition volunteer.
Anti-Cat efforts will continue if the company doesn't agree to stop selling to Israel, Frank said.
For its part, Caterpillar does not plan changes in its communications efforts to counter the protests, said Benjamin Cordani of Caterpillar's corporate public affairs department.
The heavy equipment maker has publicly stated its position and is communicating with employees via e-mails and in face-to-face meetings, Cordani said.
Caterpillar's stance is that it has no legal right or means to oversee how its equipment is used around the world.
The company lays out its position in a proxy statement for its annual meeting, where shareholders are being asked to vote on a proposal that Caterpillar look into whether selling equipment to Israel violates the company's code of business conduct. The company is recommending a no vote on that proposal
Cordani said Caterpillar isn't working with any crisis communications agency. It does, however, work with a variety of PR firms on many projects, he said.
The coalition is calling April 23 "International Day of Action Against Caterpillar."

He's back! Winnie is back and who doesn't want to see him again joined by his buddies! See Christpher Robin to see Winnie! If you like Winnie the Pooh, this is for you.
Get ready because the opening will make you tear right off the bat. Sentimental and loving. Lessons of joy and being open. This one blends fantasy and reality with warmth and heart. A live-action version that revists the old fairy tale that is a breath of fresh air - if nothing else, for its innocence. This one does that.
Be ready to be transported to Winnie the Pooh and his best friend Christopher Robin played by Ewan McGregor. The action adventure comedy from Walt Disney Pictures, directed by Marc Forster and written by Alex Ross Perry, Oscar winner Tom McCarthy, and Hidden Figures Allison Schroeder, is a story of innocence and appreciation for what we have, that makes us think while keeping us warm inside. The pacing of the movie was off at times but overall the message is sweet and it's a great family film.
Pooh and clan have been part of the Disney family for over 50 years since 1977.
This is a cushy, sentimental and heartwarming tale of Disney's Robin who ventured out with his lovable stuffed animals but now is all grown up and his old buddies enter to remind him of who he once was and are there to help bring out his inner child once again - all along showing who he still is.
Pooh is there to show Christopher that he has lost sight of what is important in life.
Inspired by the real story of Winnie the Pooh author A.A. Milne and his tough relationship with his son Christopher Robin, this live-acton/CGI talk is about grown up Christopher who is a workaholic that doesn't pay enough attention to his wife and child and has lost his sense of joy and imagination.
One day, out of nowhere, his old pal Winnie (voiced by Jim Cummings, who has voiced Winnie since 1989) shows up on a park bench and wants to work with Christopher to find their old friends. Pooh recognizes him (even though he's grown now) after not seeing him for some 30 years ago.
The voicing work is excellent but the design is off a bit. Seeing Pooh and pals as computer-animaion CGI does not compare to hand-drawn animation which is much more alive where the colors pop but in this one, the colors are muted somewhat. The animals just don't have vibrancy and their eyes are vacant compared to the movies before this. (Winnie and Eeyore's eyes particually bothered me.) I didn't like the new look of Pooh's fur either which is off when you first see it, but the voicing is so strong that Pooh's sound makes it all better. Hearing Pooh's voice just makes everything OK. As far as the action; it's solid in that they looked like stuffed animals that walk and talk and romp.
Brad Garrett is the voice of the funny donkey Eeyore. Cummings also voices Tigger, Nick Mohammad voices Piglet, Toby James voices Owl, Sophie Okonedo does Kanga, Sara Sheen is Roo, and Peter Capaldi voices Rabbit.
Note; Rated PG, for some action scenes.

Aidan turns 15 Months Old
Our little monkey turned 15 Months today and it's great to see him how happy and full of energy he is. That morning we just decided to take pictures of him from walking around the house to reading a book. We are still waiting for him to say "Dada" 🙂 He would say "Gaga" which we think it's "Dada" but who knows and he would also say "Aka" which we also think it's "Majka" (grandma). It's so exciting to see him doing and saying new things every day. 🙂

Health Care Reform Needed but Comes Hard
Steven Schroeder, MD
St. Joseph Medical Center
Kansas City, MO
July 31, 2008
Health care reform comes hard because we didn't get to where we are by accident. That's according to Steven Schroeder, MD, Distinguished Professor of Health and Health Care at the University of California - San Francisco and former president and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
Dr. Schroeder spoke before more than 200 people at the 14th Annual Flanigan Lecture on July 31, 2008, at St. Joseph Medical Center in Kansas City, MO.
Dr. Schroeder said with health care now representing 16 percent of America's gross domestic product, a lot of people have a vested interest in keeping things as they are. "It's not just the cost of care," he said, "but many people - doctors, nurses, administrators - are paid quite well to deliver that care."
"We have a tendency to look for painless, quick fixes like an electronic medical record or pay for performance," Dr. Schroeder said. "Politicians are particularly quick to pander in this regard, and that's upsetting." Dr. Schroeder says we are also reluctant to take on the involved sectors in healthcare. "Pharma, device manufacturers, the insurance industry, hospitals, doctors, unions - all have powerful lobbies in Washington and in state capitals," he said.
There's also an economic Catch 22
to health insurance reform. "When
the economy is prosperous and
unemployment low, the middle class
feels secure about health
insurance," said Dr. Schroeder.
"When the economy goes bad and
people lose jobs and healthcare,
there is not enough money to pay
for expanded coverage."
With all of these factors in play, Dr. Schroeder pointed to four pathways to resolution:
- Charismatic president pushes legislation
- Economic depression mobilizes middle class
- Business asks for help
- The medical profession mobilizes
Keeping things as they are is not
an option. "We have a very cruel
health care policy," said Dr.
Schroeder. "We say to a lot of
poor people, 'Tough! Get charity
care, wait a long time, be
sicker.' We'll accept that
because we are afraid of the
"I think if Americans understand that we may be more eager to change things."

I went from console to pc, and once I went to pc I didn't want to go back to console because I was able to customize my server to my style of gameplay. Well my computer is broke down, so now im forced to go back to console, yet I cant play how I want. So my suggestion is to expand options to customize the world.
main option I want is to be able to say which mobs I do and don't want on the server. Please add a list of all the mobs, so I can unclick the ones I don't want. Right now if I don't want monster I either have to disable mob spawning all together which also takes away animals so now the server is no longer survival, or I have to play on peacefull this take every monster away but also takes away the need for food because your hunger bar never goes down. That's not survival, and if I were to hunt a animal it would be a waste.
so my suggestion is to add a list of mobs to the options, that way I can click or unclick the exact mobs I want or don't want. This would make me really happy and make much more sense, now I can still play survival on hard, lose hunger bars and have to hunt, and still have animals or any monsters I want.
right now there's no in-between, just no mobs of any kind at all, or peaceful which takes so much away from survival.
Community tell me what you think about this, if you agree with this option, please support this thread so mabey 4j will take notice and say to themselves its worth adding. It would make me want to play on console so much more, there something special about console compared to pc, but pc makes it so much easier to customize the server to how you like playing.
praise be to God the Father, Son, and Holy spirit. the world is a beautiful place get out and see Gods creation. john 3 :16


text: Senior's Housing Development Published: Tuesday, 23 May 2017 at 12:00:00 AM The Central East Aged Care Alliance (CEACA) is a partnership of 11 Wheatbelt Shires (Bruce Rock, Kellerberrin, Koorda, Merredin, Mt Marshall, Mukinbudin, Nungarin, Trayning, Wyalkatchem and Yilgarn) formed in 2012 and formalised as an incorporated association in mid-2015. CEACA Inc has the purpose of capturing economic benefit in the Wheatbelt by providing older people with the necessary services and infrastructure to remain living in their community. CEACA Inc's key area of activity is in the provision of appropriate housing options and public infrastructure that meets the needs of seniors. It also has the potential in the future to provide health and home support services to residents within its communities. At Council's May 2017 meeting the development application for the CEACA Inc seniors housing development for Merredin was approved. The development will see 28 independent living units (ILUs) located on the western part of the old North Merredin Primary School site. The ILUs will be built to contemporary universal friendly design, meet the Gold or Platinum level requirements of the Liveable Housing Design Requirements and feature Dementia Enabling Environment Principles. All ILUs are single story with 2 bedrooms, and 3 different floor plans are available. The development endeavours to create a central communal open space that could be used by residents for gardening, bbqs and social gatherings. This central space connects to the entrance of the existing buildings on site which may also be used for further community uses or events in the future. The key priorities in setting out the site layout was retaining as many of the existing trees as possible and creating positive and attractive street/communal open space frontages. Click here to enlarge. The following table details the type and number of ILUs included in the Merredin development. The Gold standard ILUs offer a full bathroom, a separate toilet room, and a full laundry room (with an alternative wet area configuration that includes a study nook, separate toilet room, laundry room, but no toilet in the main bathroom). The Platinum standard ILUs allow for a full bathroom plus an additional toilet in the laundry room. All ILUs allow for a generous private courtyard accessed off the lounge room, a single carport and external store room, as well as a fenced-in private yard to screen clothes drying racks and bins etc. The Gold standard ILUs are designed to be able to attach to another like ILU or be freestanding. The Platinum standard ILUs are always freestanding. Click the links below to view unit floorplans, elevation and pictorial illustrations: A1 Floorplan Elevation Pictorial A2 Floorplan Elevation Pictorial D1 Floorplan Elevation Pictorial The ILUs have been designed to fit in harmoniously with the surrounding site context, taking cues from the traditional residential buildings by using gable and hip roofs and street-facing verandahs. The detailing and colour palettes however, offer a more contemporary and fresh approach that refer to more modern design trends. On behalf of CEACA Inc, the Shire of Merredin is seeking expressions of interest from residents who may be interested in either renting or purchasing an ILU following construction. To register your interest or for further information please contact Vanessa at the Shire on 9041 1611 or email@example.com, or call into the Shire Administration during office hours.

What is the best way of driving from Geneva Airport to the big resorts of the Tarentaise Valley? The resorts we are talking about here are Méribel, Courchevel, Les Menuires, Val Thorens, Les Arcs, La Plagne, Tignes, Val d'Isere and all of the smaller villages in between.
There are two main options when driving from Geneva airport to the 3 Valleys, Paradiski or Espace Killy, with some sub-options.
Option 1: Motorway via Chambéry
If you type Geneva airport to any of the above resorts in to a mapping application, the first choice is often to take the long way round, and travel via Chambéry. Whilst on a good day this could take a few minutes less than option 2, the route via Chambéry is almost 50 km further (approx 35 miles). On top of this, it takes you much, much further on France's expensive motorways so not only will you spend loads more on fuel, but you will also spend more money on tolls.
The upside with option 1 is that there is slightly less chance of getting lost. You follow signs out of Geneva airport for France, then Annecy, then Chambéry then Albertville. When you are on the dual carriageway at Albertville this is where you meet up with the route of option 2.
Option 2: Via Lake Annecy
If you are quite confident driving in a foreign country, and you have a bit of a sense of direction, then take this option.
After taking the new motorway from Geneva to Annecy, leave the motorway at Annecy-Sud (Annecy South) and follow the green signs for Albertville. This will take you through Annecy and then along the shores of Lake Annecy, which is lovely.
If you have a sat nav or a map, then try to go on the other side of the Lake, via Talloires. Not only is the traffic quieter on this side but the views are even better.
Option 3: Transfers from Geneva to 3 Valleys, Paradiski and Espace Killy
You might not have been expecting a third option, but it is by far the best. Use the FindTransfers website to find the best price on transfers from Geneva Airport.
With option 3, you do not have the stress of driving, the expense of parking an empty car and you get to see the amazing views.
Good luck and have a great time!

Being a new individual you are bound to experience some losses. Perhaps the master trader seems to lose from time to time. What's important you could do is gain knowledge from overlook the errors.
Lowering Threat
Decreasing the likelihood of sacrificing on financial commitment need to be a primary goal. Even these shareholders that would like to speedy increases and therefore pay a bigger penetration of possibility implement it with as much risk-free protects into position as they can.
Picking assets sensibly will be the initially protect. Working out use assessment resources and routinely hiring numerous methods within your investigation into assets before motion is amongst the strategies you can minimize your odds of finding displaced growth capital.
Diversifying ignore the portfolio and stock options below portfolio can also be ways that they you lessen your reduction potential. Deciding upon assets meticulously with sector limit, share pieces, and stock growth in thoughts allows you to achieve the most effective gets with more adequate amount of associated risk.
When Danger Is Painful
Sometimes you're making financial commitment choices dependant on short-term financial commitment goals and other much more sentimentally powered instances. These types of these are naturally linked with a larger quantity possibility.
When you practical experience loss due to this kind of alternatives then you should study on your mistakes and modify the way in which you invest in the foreseeable future. Never be a slow novice. Recognize blunders early avoiding managing the same situation later on in the same manner.
Sadly, sometimes the only way to learn will be to expertise damaging outcomes from your behavior. Whilst you can receive by on luck by yourself by way of some bad investment decision conclusions, finally you'll expertise some soreness resulting from weak possibilities, inadequate investigation, or negative data places.
Write-up Agony Study is vital
Studying any investment great loss after the fact is vital to foreseeable future good results in stocks and shares. Being aware what proceeded to go wrong will assist you to figure out how to stay clear of comparable challenges sooner or later.
Should the damage emereged as the result of ones own lack of skill then it may be time to get more into stock trading game understanding. Whether it is thanks to very poor options or help increase psychological decisions, then you already know you need to calm down, give yourself a longer period to analyze options, and produce up to date and much better planned investment decision choices.
Sometimes losing results from marketplace changes that journeyed unseen. When you experience expenditure discomfort on account of a failure to understand adjusting fiscal climates or relocating current market beliefs you already know that you have to touch up your skills for monitoring industry signs.
Taking Danger
At times deficits derive from solely sudden and unstable industry movement or organization improvements. You need to always remember that threat is definitely an inescapable component of trading. You have to accept that a clear amount of danger occurs whichever options you adopt in order to avoid it.
Job: Analyse ignore the predicament. What could take place should you get rid of 50Percent of your respective opportunities next week? What about 100Percentage? With the knowledge that risk and reduction are an element of trading is a key to starting a investment vacation. The very next time you feel any losses, take some time to guage what went down in order to set measures into position to help keep from taking the same miscalculation twofold.

About The Designer:
Poul Kjærholm
1929-1980 (Denmark)
Unlike his Scandinavian contemporaries who worked primarily with wood, Poul Kjærholm's passion was steel. He liked to combine the cool beauty of the metal with other materials such as wood, leather, cane or marble. "Steel's constructive potential is not the only thing that interests me; the refraction of light on its surface is an important part of my artistic work. I consider steel a material with the same artistic merit as wood and leather," he commented.
"And we should try to keep our designs as simple as possible."

The room was clean nice, but the A/C was not working well finally got tolerable after running about 3 hours. Other than that it was pretty good . I've stayed there plenty of times. It's reasonable and normally comfortable and I'd stay there again. Very good location and easy parking.

I offered this little vignette a few years ago and read it again yesterday. It amused me anew. I hope you will enjoy a re-read. True story and walking up the hill with the male parent is a pleasant memory.
The lad is carrying two pails as he walks alongside his dad, footsteps crunch, crunching in the gravel as they walk. One pail is the milk bucket, the other the near-gallon lard can for collecting eggs. Daddy insists that this is the day the boy will "learn to milk the cow."
When they get to the chicken coop, the boy sets the milk pail down and goes in to collect the eggs. For the most part, this is an easy job. Forget the squawking, the feathers flying around-- pft! pft!-- and the dust the birds kick up. Just go to the nests and gently lift the eggs and place them carefully in the bucket. But of course Old Broody will not get off the nest, and when the youngster attempts to reach beneath her, a quick and painful peck on the wrist encourages quick retreat. David steps out of the enclosure with his bucket of treasure and Dad says, "Did you get Old Broody's eggs?" "She wouldn't let me have them." "Get in there and throw her off the nest." You see where this is going-- caught between the mad dad and the angry hen. So back into the coop, grabbed the hen and threw her across the house.
Now we take the pail and enter the milking stall, where the "little Jersey" patiently awaits the relief she so desperately needs. She places her head in the stanchion, the boy gets the stool and places the bucket beneath the cow, all the time thinking, "There's no way I'm going to milk her." David sits on the stool and tentatively reaches for a teat. The tail whips around the back of the boy's head. He flinches and complains loudly. "Get your head up in her flank. Don't let her push you around." The boy obeys, reaches again for a teat. A bit of fumbling around with no visible result, unless one counts an increasingly impatient cow and ever more impatient "instructor." Finally the mentor gets down and demonstrates the proper finger motions, starts a stream. The boy again fumbles around with the resulting trickle further irritating both animal and parent.
"Get away from her," says the parent, "I'll do it myself." And he did.
The original title is "Red Hen, Red Cow ."

You're a busy woman, so a piece that can do double duty is worth its weight in gold. This is why we have designed some gorgeous pieces that you can dress up, or dress down!
The vibrant maroon of our Joey Top makes it perfect for anything from casual beers with friends, to holiday parties. An unfussy cut with a layered hem gives just enough visual detail without demanding attention. This top will pair just as beautifully with a black, sequin skirt, or with skinny jeans!
Our Rush Romper in Black is the sweetest little romper you will ever lay your hands on. This romper wears beautifully! With a classic, wrap cut and flowing fabric, this romper lays easily and it also lengthens your torso.
Crushed velvet is back in a big way—and we love it! Our Jenna Tank in crushed, mocha velvet is rich, dramatic and so insanely wearable that we want it in every color. We wear our Jenna Tank to the office to add a little pop under a black blazer, or out with friends paired with black leggings and high boots.
The Diane Sweater in Slate is elegant comfort at its very best. High-necked with bell sleeves, the Diane Sweater has a luxurious sheen that gives it way more drama than your traditional pullover. Tuck the front of the Diane Sweater into a black mini for a warm, sexy look for evenings on the town.
Our Muse Top in Plantana is neutral enough for the day, with enough drama for night. The long tie and bell sleeves mean this top has loads of movement. We love to pair this top with black, coated jeans, and gold accessories to make the green pop.

At some point, your commercial roof will need to be replaced. Although this can involve a large expenditure, the good news is that there are numerous ways to save money. Here are some of them.
Early replacement
When you replace your roof at just the right point as it wears and ages, you can possibly save money. That is, replacing it sooner can be more cost-effective than waiting, as it continues to age and require more maintenance. Also, the more it ages, the more susceptible underlying roof components (e.g., insulation) risk becoming wet – and that will require more expense to correct. It's a good idea to bring in a professional roofing contractor who can work with you to schedule the most cost-effective time to replace your roof.
Seasonal timing
When the weather is warm and sunny, it's roofing season and a commercial roofing company tends to be busy at that time. If you can schedule your roof replacement outside of the company's busy time, but when the weather is still favorable for roof replacement, the contractor might offer more competitive pricing to earn your business.
Some states, cities and utilities offer financial incentives for installing energy-efficient roofing systems. Check in your area to find out what is available. A professional roofing company can also probably tell you about local energy incentives. In addition, recent changes to the federal tax code may provide financial benefits for companies that invest in new roofing systems. A recent Royalty blog article has more information on this.
Batching projects
If your company has more than one roof that needs to be replaced, you might be able to get a cost break by "batching" projects; that is, replacing roofs during the same time period at multiple locations that are near each other. A contractor might be able to lower the overall cost because roofing crews can do multiple jobs during one trip.
If you have questions or need a professional inspection, feel free to contact us. Royalty Roofing specializes in roofing projects for commercial, industrial and institutional facilities. We are headquartered in Seymour, Indiana, with strategically located offices to serve commercial roofing customers with single locations or who own or manage multiple facilities throughout the continental United States.

It seems Sean Spicer likes more than just chewing gum.
White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon gave a tongue-in-cheek answer to an inquiry from Atlanticon why Press Secretary Sean Spicer now conducts his press briefings off-camera.
His answer: "Sean got fatter."
The Atlantic report reads: "Neither Spicer nor deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders responded to queries about the changes to the briefings. Asked why the briefings are now routinely held off-camera...Bannon said in a text message 'Sean got fatter,' and did not respond to a follow-up."
In recent weeks, the White House has dialed back its press briefings — with those conducted frequently held outside the public eye.
Since assuming the role of press secretary in January, Spicer's briefings have become something of a spectacle — with vague or outlandish answers to reporters' questions.
It prompted "Saturday Night Live" to bring actress and comedian Melissa McCarthy on in a guest role as Spicer. The move instantly went viral — with McCarthy's Spicer chewing wads of gum, berating reporters and speeding around on a motorized podium.
Multiple gaffes from the podium sparked rumors that the Trump administration was seeking a replacement for Spicer, or that the press secretary would be flat out fired.
Early Tuesday, the Associated Press reported that Spicer is seeking a more strategic role within the administration — one that would give him only a limited presence in the briefings. The same story indicates that Spicer has reportedly reached out to possible successors at the podium and as communications director.
On Monday, CNN correspondent Jim Acosta called Spicer and his limited briefings "kind of useless."
The administration is also searching for a replacement for former communications director Mike Dubke, who stepped down last month.
The Spicer antics began just days after the inauguration, when the press secretary touted the most well-attended inauguration in history. This came as photos showed a lower inauguration crowd than Barack Obama's. The comment gave rise to adviser Kellyanne Conway's infamous term, "alternative facts."
The briefings reached rock bottom in April, when Spicer claimed that even in World War II, authoritarian leader Adolf Hitler did not use chemical weapons (as utilized in recent months by the embattled Syrian government). In fact, Hitler did — using chemicals in gas chambers to kill Jews and other minorities during the Holocaust.
As many called for his resignation, Spicer apologized for his remarks the following day.
