This article was originally published on Ferretbrain. I've backdated it to its original Ferretbrain publication date but it may have been edited and amended since its original appearance.
One of the best value DVD boxed sets I've ever obtained was The Ultimate Hammer Collection, which features 21 selected horror, thriller, and fantasy movies from the archives of Hammer Studios. Focusing on their heyday from the 1960s and 1970s, the set includes a strange combination of undeniable classics, interesting obscurities, and utter turkeys; I suspect rights issues might have prevented the inclusion of some of Hammer's earlier works. (For instance, their original takes on Dracula and Frankenstein are entirely absent, both those series represented only by a random selection of sequels.)
The set originally retailed for over £100, but for a while now it's been obtainable at substantially lower prices, thanks in part to the waning of the DVD format in the face of the inexorable march of Blu-Ray and streaming services; when I bought it the price averaged to about £1.50 per movie, which was too tempting to ignore. Despite the lack of some important early works, it's got a bunch of high-quality movies which showcase the Hammer house style (which was so distinctive that "Hammer horror" practically became its own subgenre) – as well as a clutch of films which either demonstrate the weakness of the formula or expose what can go horribly wrong (or terribly right) when the formula is deviated from. That makes it the perfect fodder for when I challenge myself to post something horror-related to Ferretbrain daily for the entire month of October (what the fuck am I thinking?).
Two films that really highlight the extremes of the set are the Dennis Wheatley adaptations included – The Devil Rides Out and To the Devil a Daughter, both starring Christopher Lee. Wheatley's garish horror novels could almost have been custom-written to be adapted by Hammer, since they shared with Hammer's house style a weird combination of a very colourful and often lurid imagination and values which wouldn't offend the British middle classes. As it stands, one of these films is a loyal adaptation of the source material that is an excellent example of the house style, whilst the other deviates wildly from its source novel, the Hammer ethos, and all standards of quality and good taste
Lee's association with these films is no coincidence – as well as being the Hammer regular he was, he was actually the one who convinced Wheatley to let Hammer option three of Wheatley's works – The Devil Rides Out, To the Devil a Daughter, and The Satanist – in 1963. It wasn't until 1968 that the first one could be adapted – Hammer didn't expect that they would be able to get the content past the censors beforehand – but it was such a runaway success that Hammer immediately… sat around for 8 years before putting out another adaptation of Wheatley's populist demons-and-black-magic novels. Let it never be said that Hammer are highly regarded for their business decisions…

Unlike other sports like football, soccer, and lacrosse, triathlon is not usually thought of as a "spectator sport" — one that people get excited about watching. Rather than sitting in a comfortable lawn chair or bleacher while snacking and talking, spectating a triathlon (especially an Ironman) is a sport in it of itself.
In the case of an Ironman event, spectators are often seen sporting matching t-shirts (often with iron-on letters or "Go IronMike" like slogans), running from place to place, panting, and constantly attempting to calculate when to watch their loved one pass by on the swim, bike, or run.
A lot of heart and dedication goes into being a proper Iron spectator. It's taken years for my brother TJ and cousins to master the art. From yelling DOUBLE BONUS at anyone with both an aero helmet (they like to call it a hershey helmet) and aero wheels and to pass the time to figuring out what restaurants to go to and WHEN during race day (to avoid long lines of rookie spectators), my cousins and brother are definitely dedicated Iron Spectators.
So, how to approach asking family members to spectate an Ironman…
First of all, DO NOT lie to to relatives or sugar coat the truth. Saying "Hey grandma or Boyfriend Sean, want to come on a fun trip to Lake Placid? There will be lots of pretty lakes and good food! And oh, by the way, you can watch me do a race, but it's a ton of fun!" will not do you any good. Be honest. However, Informing your relatives and friends that spectating can be, let's be honest, AWFUL, isn't always the best route to take either.
So, how do you condition family and friends to become "Iron Spectators" — to avoid the fatigue and boring long hours of a dedicated triathlon-watcher? Follow the steps below, and before you know it you'll have a team of "Team Iron (insert your name here)" running around in matching t-shirts to cheer for YOU. Yes, you! Wahoo.
- Timing – The night before the race, make sure you have your loved ones' race number and projected finish times (and loop times if the bike and run is a loop course) for the swim, bike, and run (And make them be realistic. If need be, remind them that they are not Chrissie Wellington and will most likely not be finishing an Ironman in single-digit hours).
- Proper Nutrition – A Nutrition plan is just for the athletes? Psh, no way. Hunger and dehydration can run rampant amongst Iron Spectators if you are not careful. Remember, it's a MARATHON not a SPRINT. Don't eat all your ziploc-ed goodies at the swim start, and don't forget bottled water. Map out restaurants you may want to try (but you'll have to be careful about when you go to avoid long lines) Or else you'll be sorry. And hungry. Which is not fun.
- T-Shirts – T-shirts are the heart and soul of all classy Iron Spectating teams. Whether it's a triathlon club jersey or printed (or iron-on) shirts, matching is ideal. The weirder the catch phrase, the better. "Iron (Insert your name here)" has been done. Come up with something creative and funny that will make the other Iron Spectators WISH they could be as cool as you.
- Signs – This is where the all-star Iron Spectators are separated from the pack. Is your sign for your loved one (you just HAVE to have a sign or a cowbell) going to be traditional? Funny? Colorful? The possibilities are endless. TJ has some top-secret signs in the making for Ironman Lake Placid 2013, so you'll have to stay tuned for those.
- Activities – Let's be honest. Iron spectating can get boring. And long hours of sitting on the pavement waiting for a relative to pass by for five seconds isn't always conducive to children (or adults) being happy. So, future Iron Spectators, plan activities!!! Whether it's stuffing your face at a local restaurant in between the bike and run, swimming, or shopping, you'll need some way to pass the time. If things get really boring, you can always do what my cousins and I did in Lake Placid a few years ago — the croc count. We counted how many people had crocs and informed people of their number (it had been a looooong day, haha).
- Charged Devices – Don't be that guy. That guy who is texting, updating apps, and playing Candy Crush all day and draining your battery faster than the energy of a tired Ironman athlete. The last thing you want is your phone or camera to run out of battery RIGHT BEFORE your loved one crosses the finish line (minus 1000 Iron Spectator points for this). You will never hear the end of this. Ever. SAVE THAT BATTERY!!! Or bring a charger.
- COMPETITIVE SPIRIT – CAN YOU YELL THE LOUDEST? TAKE THE MOST PICTURES? HAVE THE MOST ABSURD OUTFITS? Yeah. You can. So dig deep. And be the best Iron Spectator you can be. Your Ironman will be proud.
Inform and teach your family members the above six elements/steps to being a superb Iron Spectator and they'll be set. Which is also better for you. Because you get better race pictures and more happy family members. 🙂 Iron Spectating can be fun if you do it right!
Shoutout to all of you Iron Spectators out there (you know who you are), you make the races great. Keep killin' it. 🙂
Tri Hard (to be a good Iron Spectator),

What does it mean to "stand up for what you believe in?" Does it only apply to people on the "right" side of history? Step into the Twilight Lounge, where Rosen and Goldbrener will eventually tackle this question head-on. But first: solving architect problems, moral quandaries on BART, Keith Hernandez' wife and Julia Salazar, the sins of your (grand) fathers, Monica gets miffed, Sarsour dehumanizes Jews (again), the town of Tookus, and this question:
"Is 'bageling' good for the Jews?"
Not sure if this puts us on the right side of history, but we don't want to be bageled.

Republicans argue that greater government involvement in health care will lead to rationing of care and denial of coverage. A government run health care would place a bureaucrat between "you and your doctor," Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, repeated at least four times during a recent interview on Fox News.
And according to some reports, Hatch is working hard to translate his criticism into reality. Hatch and his Republican colleagues on the Senate Finance Committee are pushing legislation that would require insurers operating within the new Exchange to to deny coverage for abortion services. From Raising Women's Voices:
The Senate Finance Committee has been writing a health care reform bill and struggling to create legislation that will have bipartisan support. Chairman Max Baucus (pictured left) considered several compromises to win Republican support, so they can claim it is bipartisan legislation. One of these potential compromises comes in the form of an abortion exclusion, which would prevent abortion services from being covered by some or all insurance plans in the Health Insurance Exchange. We fear that members of the Senate Finance Committee are considering such a compromise.
Nineteen House members have also sent a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) stating that they will not vote for health care reform legislation "unless it explicitly excludes abortion funding from the scope of any government-defined or subsidized health insurance plan." "Furthermore, we want to ensure that the Health Benefits Advisory Committee cannot recommend abortion services be included under covered benefits or as part of a benefits package," the members wrote.
The available legislation from the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Senate Committee and the House's Tri Committee leaves the coverage decisions — the design of the so-called essential benefit packages — to the Secretary of Health and Human Services or a committee of experts. The Chairman's mark of the HELP bill sates that "the Secretary shall ensure that the scope of the essential health benefits under paragraph (1)(A) is equal to the scope of benefits provided under a typical employer plan, as determined by the Secretary." The Tri Committee legislation establishes a "private-public advisory committee which shall be a panel of medical and experts to be known as the Health Benefits Advisory Committee to recommend covered benefits and an essential benefits package."
Should it pass, the Senate Finance version would be the only bill that specifically prohibits — takes away, rations, if you will — a medical service. Approximately one in three American women will have an abortion by age 45 and private insurers typically cover the procedure. In 2002, The Guttmacher Institute found that 86.9 percent of "typical" employment-based health plans "routinely cover" surgical abortion and 86.5 percent "routinely cover" medical abortion. The language under consideration would take away this benefit from women receiving coverage through the Exchange, eliminating the service for millions of American women.
As Republicans often argue, Congress should leave benefits decisions to the medical professionals. After all, if denying abortion services to women is the price of bipartisanship, then perhaps winning those one or two Republican votes isn't worth the price of jeopardizing women's health and well-being. In fact, according to a new national opinion survey conducted for the National Women's Law Center (NWLC), 71 percent of Americans overwhelmingly support requiring health plans in the Exchange to cover women's reproductive health services. Even 78 percent of Republicans prefer an independent commission of citizens and medical professionals make decisions about what should be covered under reform rather than the President and Congress. Allowing an independent commission of medical professionals to make coverage decisions is the real face of bipartisanship.

This is just a small sampling of the hundreds of species who use the lake as a migratory stopover.

Ok, I use the luxury paper from DCWV. I used some vintage lace that I got from Linda (Scrapchica). I used some trim from ACMoore. I made the lollipop flower. I also used some tulle that my friend Gina (scrappinology) gave me. Used some pearls for the center. I handmade my own leaves (got the idea from Gina scrappinology) with some shimmery paper from Recollections then I lightly inked the edges of the leaves with Certainly Celery from SU. I used my handmade stick pins. I made my itty bitty roses with the same papers. I used some bling. Then lastly, I embossed "congratulations" with silver detailed embossing powder from Ranger. I hope everyone likes this card. It's so pretty I don't want to give it away.
Thanks everyone for stopping by my blog. I really appreciate it.

HA NOI (VNS) — Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Bac Son has urged the MobiFone Telecommunications Corporation to seek capable strategic investors in its ongoing equitisation process.
Son told a ministerial meeting last week, that the equitisation of the company is an important issue which must be implemented with transparency to foster the country's general policy in restructuring State-owned enterprises.
Many international telecommunications firms from Australia, France, Malaysia and Singapore have expressed interest in a strategic partnership with the company in the past months, he said, without giving further details.
MobiFone has selected brokerage firm Ban Viet Securities as a consultant for its equitisation, while a draft plan has been made available and prepared to be presented to the ministry for assessment.
Son asked MobiFone to submit reports about the progress of the plan weekly to the Corporate Management Department, and monthly to ministry officials, for effective implementation.
MobiFone Chairman Le Nam Tra said that in the first 10 months of this year the company's profit has nearly reached the annual target while its turnover has grown by 7.8 per cent year-on-year.
Last month, he said the firm planned to report VND36.4 trillion (US$1.63 billion) in total revenue and VND7.3 trillion ($328.2 million) in profit in 2015.
In the first nine months, the company's total revenue reached VND27.2 trillion ($1.2 billion), bringing in a profit of VND5.67 trillion ($252.7 million).
By September, the company accounted for a market share of 26.11 per cent or a year-on year growth of 1.6 per cent. The number of new subscribers reached 11 million with a year-on-year increase of 94.7 per cent.
According to the ministry, MobiFone currently has a charter capital of VND15.3 trillion, or $680 million.
MobiFone's operator was rechristened the MobiFone Telecommunications Corporation from the Viet Nam Mobile Telecom Services Company last December, after the firm was separated from the Viet Nam Post and Telecommunications Group and was placed under the supervision of the Ministry of Information and Communications last year. — VNS

Genres: Fantasy, YA
Format: eBook from Author
Find the book: Amazon, Goodreads
When legends come to life the world trembles from a single name. Ronin. Once-heroes from a different age, they wield elemental powers… wind, water, fire, stone, forest, sun, moon, flesh, and metal.
At the same time, a young man discovers his best friend with a sword in her stomach, and dark wings sprouting from her back. Guards rush onto the scene, accuse him of the act, and he is forced to flee. In a new world without his memories, Gray must find his way amid legends and darkness, as he wrestles with an elemental power inside himself.
A power all too similar to the infamous Ronin…
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
It's been a while since I read an epic fantasy that really gripped me. This book did just that with its inventive legends of The Ronin, an almost mythical group of magical heroes.
I loved following Grey as he learned about his past, his talents and his connection to the Ronin. He was an easy character to like. Charming, self-doubting, and fiercely loyal to his friends, he was so easy to root for.
One of the tricky things about epic fantasy sagas is the immense amount of world building needed to create a success story. This book had a great introduction to the world and magic. It was a touch slow in the beginning, and a bit confusing as there were lots of characters being introduced, but things really started to settle down and become clear shortly before the halfway point. It's well worth getting to that point because it's smooth sailing after then.
I was really impressed with the story, and really enjoyed it. As a first book in an extended series, it has a few bumps, but it lays out the world and the characters well, and I can't wait to see what happens next.

Candied fruits are an extraordinary election to add new flavours and a splash of colour to sweet and salty preparations. As a part of pâtés or roasts, or even in the decoration of ready-to-serve prepared meals, glace fruit is an ingredient of great interest. Candied cherries and Maraschino cherry are outstading products for these preparations, as they add a juicy and crunchy touch to delicate recipes of pâtés or liver mousses. Glace fruit performs beautifully in the presentation of the meals, especially when cut in cubes or strips of candied orange peel.

Q1. GEECL was the first in the country to get into commercial production of Coal Bed Methane (CBM). 2017 marks a decade of your operations in the CBM segment, how has the journey been?
Our journey has been great; the start off the CBM policy has been good... and the government through its recent cabinet decision has made it better by reinstating investor confidence. Being the first in this business did lead to some challenges, but we have overcome all these challenges with a focused approach and proactive support from both the centre and state governments. The new HELP policy seems to be investor friendly; we are keen to participate in the coming set of auctions under open acreage licensing policy. However, we will take a proper decision after we are through with the fine print of the policy and what's on offer.
Q2. What are the company's growth plans for the coming years?
Our first priority right now is our Raniganj (South) block in West Bengal, we intend to drill another 144 wells requiring an investment of around Rs 1,500- 2,000 crore. The work for which will start within the next year and we intend to drill around 40 wells per year. We hope that the ongoing arbitration in our Mannargudi CBM block in Tamil Nadu gets resolved soon, after which we look at the investments plan there. We will also study the new bidding mechanism; Open Acreage Licensing Policy (OALP) and the data available on National Data Repository (NDR) in order to make a decision on what blocks to carve out and bid for. We would in the coming five years invest around $1 billion in the unconventional space (CBM and/or Shale); we are not keen in getting into the conventional space.
Q3. What kind of upside do you see in light of the recent cabinet decision to give marketing and pricing freedom to CBM producers?
It is a game changer for the industry, more investments and players should come in due to this. It will give investor confidence, as what was envisaged in the CBM contract is being upheld. As you know 33 CBM blocks were awarded out of which 18 of them have been or are being relinquished, so there are still 15 blocks out there which are waiting to be developed.
Q4. Out of 33 blocks awarded over the years only 4 blocks are producing CBM? Do you think pricing, statutory clearances and environmental clearances were major hurdles for investors to get in?
In my view, many of the blocks which are not operational did not start work because they were uneconomically bid on in CBM III. The operators (of the remaining blocks) which were sitting on the fringe should start now; I think the recent policy decision on marketing and pricing freedom was what most of them were waiting for. If I was in their position I would start. Furthermore, there was generally a misconception that CBM exploration, production, and development is easy! That is not the case, it is a lot of work and every well requires attention to detail. Statutory clearances are not so much of an issue as they are made out to be, there are definitely some delays but you do get it.
Q5. What is the current level of production from Raniganj?
We are producing around half a million cubic meter per day of CBM, some of which we use as internal consumption. The optimisation drive conducted by the company over the last two years has borne fruits, production will increase even further from the current levels and we are quite happy with the blocks' performance. We have 156 operational wells and we are looking at drilling an addition of 144 wells. As part of our approved Field Development Plan (FDP) we will drill a total of 300 wells. Broadly we drill in batches of 40 wells a year so we should take another three four years to finish the job.
Q6. Are there are any new technological advancements which has made the extraction of CBM more efficient?
Yes, there have been advancements in the sector which has helped us increase our operational efficiency. First would be the improvement in the completion technologies... fracturing and cementing, and over the years the technology of pumps has improved which has given the operations a big boost. Pumps which had an efficiency of say 80% earlier, now give efficiencies of more than 95%. As de-watering is the name of the game in CBM, pump quality and efficiency really matters.
Q7. How is the demand scenario?
CNG demand in the region is increasing, over 3200 vehicles in the region run on CNG. About a month ago the West Bengal government introduced around 10 CNG buses in the Durgapur, Asansol region and further buses are being introduced. Right now CNG sales account for around 2% of our total sales. However, we predict demand getting stronger for CNG in the future. The Jagdishpur-Haldia pipeline will also open up more markets for us. We currently have around industrial 30-35 customers.

About LMF Manufacturing
In 2001, LMF Manufacturing, located in Central Pennsylvania, responded to the growing need for alternative heating sources and started to build the AmericasHeat Biomass Forced Hot air furnace. The response to our furnace was overwhelming and we out grew our first location within one year. In 2002 we relocated our office and manufacturing plant to a facility in Lock Haven, PA. In 2006, because of continued demand, we were again forced to move our production/manufacturing center, with the financial assistance of the West Penn Power Sustainable Energy Group, into a larger facility located in Woolrich, PA.
Today, we operate two facilities, and manufacture 4 models of Corn Burning furnaces. 2 Forced Hot air units (100,000 & 170,000 Btu models) and 2 Hot water boiler units (100,000 and 170,000 Btu).
Burn Wood Pellets or Corn Safely & Efficiently...

This year I am going to be doing Blogmas again, so I will be posting everyday up until Christmas Day, or maybe even for the whole month. What better way to kick things off than with a Christmas tag?
1. What is your favourite Christmas film?
Probably Nativity. I know all of the words to every song. Other than that, Home Alone is my favourite, and I have no joke watched it probably at least 30 times. Another one that I love is National Lapoon's Christmas Vacation. Me and my family always sit down to watch it every year, usually on Christmas Eve.
2. Have you ever had a White Christmas?
I have spent my last few Christmas's skiing in France, so yes. As for England, I don't think I have. I think one year we almost did, but the snow all melted on Christmas Eve.
3. What is your favourite Christmas song?
My favourite Christmas carol is 12 Days of Christmas, because one year me and my friend learnt all the words, and it amused us for the whole of December. For Christmas songs in general, Mariah Carey's All I want for Christmas is always a winner, and my guilty pleasure is Mistletoe by Justin Bieber.
4. Do you open any presents on Christmas Eve?
We usually leave them to Christmas Day. But, when me and my brother were younger, we used to open the presents that we had got for each other before we went to bed on Christmas Eve.
5. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer?
Rudolph, Blixon, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Comet.... no I can't!!
6. What holiday tradition are you looking forward to most this year?
Probably the food! And also I just love spending time with my family. My favourite thing about Christmas is just going out and seeing all the lights, and having Christmas music playing everywhere.
7. Is your Christmas tree real or fake?
This year I think it will be fake, but we do have a real one some years.
8. What is your all-time favourite holiday food/sweet treat?
Ah there are so many to choose from. I do really love the Lindt Chocolate Reindeers, and I have a Lindt advent calendar this year, which makes me so happy!
9. Be honest: do you like giving gifts or receiving gifts better?
Obviously everyone loves receiving gifts, but I do really like giving them too. I love when you have put so much thought into someone's present and they love it.
10. What is the best Christmas gift you've ever received?
I've got so many amazing presents over the years. My favourites are when I am completely surprised by it. Last year I got a laptop, which I was so not expecting, and I very nearly cried. I also remember when I was about 8 or 9, I got a blonde Hannah Montana wig, which I was in love with.
11. What would be your dream place to visit for the holiday season?
New York City. It looks so pretty in the winter and it would also be amazing to spend New Year's Eve there too. I absolutely love London at Christmas, so I'd love New York.
12. Are you a pro-present wrapper, or do you fail miserably?
Okay, I am a really bad wrapper. I want so badly to be good at it, but I'm just not, unless its a perfect square/ rectangle box. However, I do take great pleasure in making it look pretty after, by adding ribbon and bows (which are mainly there to hide my awful wrapping).
13. Most memorable Holiday moment?
It's not really a single moment, but when I was younger my Grandparents would always put mine and my brother's presents in a massive Christmas bag. It always used to make us so excited, and it is just something that I will never forget.
14. Do you make New Years resolutions? Do you stick to them?
I make New Year's resolutions every year, and sometimes I do actually stick to them. My 2014 goal was to read every single day, and I did actually do that. But sometimes, I stick to them for barely any time at all, and two weeks into January they are completely out the window.
15. What makes the holidays special for you?
As I mentioned earlier, I love spending the time with my family. I also just love Christmas spirit. I love when everything feels all Christmassy and everyone is excited!
I hope you have enjoyed reading this. If you do this tag, send me the link because I would love to read it.

DJI requires the RC Flight Mode switch to be set appropriately in order for third party apps to control the aircraft. Use P for the Phantom 4 and use F for all other aircraft types. If the Flight Mode switch is not set appropriately, you still have control of the aircraft via the RC Joysticks. If the Flight Mode switch is set appropriately and you still see this message, try toggling the switch to another setting and then back to the appropriate setting, and then engage Autopilot again.

Berkeley Institute of Homeopathy is located at 1654 University Avenue, Berkeley, CA 94703. We run a rigorous three year professional homeopathic training program for those desiring to become homeopathic practitioners. The Institute also runs a low cost clinic designed to serve the public and to provide clinical training for its advanced students.
The classes meet once monthly for one weekend. The first year consists of a 2 day weekend of instruction on Saturday and Sunday, and the second and third years consist of a 3 day weekend on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with one day of clinic attendance and participation, and 2 days of instruction. The first year course consists of a two day weekend of instructions on Saturday and Sunday. Starting in January of the first year students are invited to attend the clinic which occurs on the Saturday of the third year weekend, which will give valuable clinic experience and an additional 78 clinical hours.
The program requires diligent application to the homework and study required between weekends, and a commitment to self development and healing in order to prepare the student for the work of practicing homeopathy.

If you have an unquenchable thirst for beer but your billfold is empty, think twice before using that ATM in the corner of the bar — it might end up costing you more than your drink.
Getting your hands on your cash has never been so expensive, according to a Bankrate.com survey that found the national average out-of-network ATM fee has risen to $4.52, marking the ninth year in a row that ATM fees have increased. Fees are up 21 percent over the last five years alone.
The good news? According to Bankrate's chief financial analyst Greg McBride, the fees are going up because most bank customers have wisened up to the "completely avoidable" charges for using another bank's ATM.
Low cash withdrawals
The average debit card user withdraws cash from ATMs just twice a month, down significantly from a decade ago, thanks to increased availability of cash back services at supermarkets and drugstores and electronic alternatives to cash, according to a recent study by consulting firm Oliver Wyman.
"People are getting smarter about ATM fees" and are seeking out free ATMs run by their own banks when they do need cash, said McBride. "The fees are going up because, with fewer users to spread their costs over, ATM owners have to charge more."
Atlanta has the nation's highest ATM fees — calculated as the fee charged by the ATM owner, plus the fee charged by the user's bank — at $5.15. Next came New York, where using an out-of-network ATM will cost you $5.03.
But visitors to San Francisco, one of the nation's most expensive cities to live in, will get a small respite. It has the nation's lowest out-of-network ATM fees, at $3.85.
Overdraft fees up
McBride called using out-of-network ATMs "the type of sloppy financial habit that will send you to the poorhouse." Planning ahead and using cellphone apps to find nearby in-network ATMs makes it easy to avoid the charges, he said.
Overdraft fees also are on the rise, Bankrate said. The national average is up to $33.07.

If you have a motorcycle and you are afraid that it will get stolen, consider some steps in protecting it. These suggestions are not full proof, because a thief who really wants your bike will most likely get it eventually. However, your objective should be to create enough deterrents so that the thief gives up trying. The best way to protect your motorcycle from theft is to incorporate as many of the following steps as possible.
1Take advantage of your bike's built-in lock, but only as an extra obstacle for thieves. Even though these locks are easy to break into, they should still be used in conjunction with other methods of protection.[1]
2Include disc brake locks as part of your protection against thieves stealing your motorcycle. Disc brake locks are attached so that thieves cannot ride your bike away.[2]
3Make it difficult for motorcycle thieves to steal your bike by creating mechanical deterrents. For example, you can pull a fuse, loosen a spark plug cap, or shut off the gas. Hopefully, the thieves will assume that your bike is broken, or they may just give up trying to figure out the issue.
4Connect a concealed kill switch on to your bike so a potential bike thief will have to search for it to start the bike. A kill switch has to be pressed while the rider starts the bike.[3]
5Park your motorbike out in the open and in a busy location if you are out and about. Ideally, leave it where you can see it if you are going into a restaurant. At home, be sure to park your motorbike in a discreet location if you don't have a garage at home. You might want to cover the bike with a tarp, especially if you have invested a lot of money into fixing up your bike. You don't want interest to turn into temptation.[4]
- If possible, park it somewhere that is not easily accessible. If it's hard to get to or move the bike from, it will be less of a target. The little extra inconvenience to you can be worth it.
6Attach and lock your motorbike to a stationary object if possible. Another option would be to link your wheels to a friend's bike with a chain.[5]
7Don't ever leave your motorcycle running, even for a few moments. It only takes a few seconds for someone to jump onto your bike and ride off. Don't hide your keys anywhere on your bike either.Advertisement
Community Q&A
QuestionHow do I check the headlight connection on a motorcycle?Community AnswerYou should be able to remove the headlight by pulling the cables at the back of the light; you can then use a volt meter or another light set up to test the wires.
QuestionWho sells a security that tracks a motorcycle?Community AnswerThe AES RGT90. While you must pay to use it, the tracker does not work automatically. You need to call the devices attached phone number to know where the tracker and motorcycle's current location. The tracker will then reply with a text message with a Google Maps link with the information.

- Consider installing a tracking system in your motorcycle, especially if you have an expensive motorcycle with costly updates. With this GPS type system, you will know where your bike was taken, and hopefully be able to recover it undamaged.Thanks!
- Insure your motorcycle, so if it is stolen, at least you won't lose out financially. However, if you have invested a lot of time and money into customizing your bike, this option won't justify that. The best bet is to incorporate all of these ideas in your attempt to guard your motorbike from thieves.Thanks!

Shahbulat Shamhalaev ate something that did not agree with him.
Suffering from food poisoning, the 29-year-old Russian was forced to exit his bout with Rad Martinez in the Bellator Fighting Championships Season 7 featherweight tournament final at Bellator 83 on Friday at Caesars Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, N.J.
"He's been throwing up most of the day," Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney said. "He was throwing up in the locker room. The commission saw him, and, of course, it's incumbent upon them to look out for the safety of the fighters."
The Martinez-Shamhalaev final was immediately rescheduled for Bellator 84, scheduled for Dec. 14 at the Horseshoe Casino in Hammond, Ind.
Leone upends former champion Makovsky
World Extreme Cagefighting veteran Anthony Leone upset former Bellator champion Zach Makovsky by split decision in a bantamweight showcase. All three judges scored it 29-28: William Mason and Cardo Urso for Leone, Michael Barry for Makovsky.
Leone (12-5, 2-2 Bellator) was superior in the scrambles and in the clinch, perhaps catching Makovsky — who wrestled collegiately at Drexel University — by surprise. The stage was set early, as Leone answered a single-leg takedown in the first round by immediately returning to an upright position. From there, he sapped Makovsky's spirit in the clinch, mixing in combinations when the chance arose.
Makovsky (14-4, 6-2 Bellator) struck for a pair of takedowns in round two but failed to capitalize on them, as his relentless foe either rose to his feet or moved into top position. The third round was clearly Leone's, as he scrambled on top after a failed guillotine choke attempt, twice passing the Makovsky guard into side control.
"I feel amazing," Leone said. "I love the judges tonight."
Eye chokes Gurgel unconscious
Strong Style Fight Team representative Jessica Eye rendered Bellator women's 115-pound champion Zoila Frausto Gurgel unconscious with a standing arm-triangle choke 58 seconds into the first round of their featured matchup. The non-title bout was contested at 125 pounds.
"I'm prepared because of my camp," Eye said. "This is a long time coming."
The Ring of Combat veteran met Gurgel in the center of the cage and clobbered her with a pair of right hands — one standing, the other on the ground — during their initial exchange. Eye (9-1, 4-0 Bellator) moved immediately to the clinch as the wobbled champion rose to her feet, cinching the choke against the cage. After a brief struggle, Gurgel (12-2, 6-1 Bellator) went limp, and the fight, along with her seven-fight winning streak, was done.
"I was kind of like an anaconda; I just kept getting tighter and tighter," Eye said. "I didn't want to let go until someone told me to."
TUF alum Rivera notches decision; Horcher stays undefeated
In preliminary action, "The Ultimate Fighter" Season 14 alum Jimmie Rivera captured a unanimous verdict from Jesse Brock, earning 29-28, 30-27 and 30-27 marks from the cageside judges; Blackman MMA prospect Darrell Horcher kept his perfect professional record intact with a unanimous nod over Chris Liguori, sweeping the scorecards by identical 29-28 scores; UFC castaway Mike Wessel defeated Belarusian heavyweight Alexei Kudin by unanimous decision, taking 29-28 verdicts on all three scorecards; Terrell Hobbs submitted Brylan Van Artsdalen with a rear-naked choke 3:07 into the first round of their featherweight tilt; Philadelphia-based Tuan Pham handed Matthew Lozano his first career loss with a unanimous decision in their catchweight affair, securing 29-28 scores from all three judges; and Claudio Ledesma picked up his fourth win in five outings with a unanimous nod over David Harris at 135 pounds: 30-27, 30-27 and 30-27.

Our new year sale is finishing on Sunday 10th January 2016. We are getting more visits to our website and we think that Mums and Dads are slowly warming to the idea of using baby wraps for their little ones.
Any one that watches Eastenders will have seen one of our Kari-me's (burgundy) being used by Stacey Slater in the first week of January. This was very interesting as while all the action was taking place, her little baby boy appeared very peaceful and often asleep. We think that if Eastenders can use a baby wrap for one of their main characters and her little one, then why not everyone.
We wish everyone a Happy New Year.

Our claims to fame
Kaffir Lime Leaf Powder
The fresh dark green, glossy leaves of the Kaffir lime tree are used to impart a refreshing aromatic lemon and lime flavour into Thai and other Southeast Asian cuisine.
An unusual double leaf shape, resembling an hour-glass, the whole leaves are extensively used in soups and curries. Finely shredded Kaffir lime leaves are often added to Asian salads and fishcakes.
However, the fresh leaves are not always readily available and whole leaves require removal from a dish prior to eating, similar to when using bay leaves in Western cuisine.
When picked, dried and ground into a fine powder, the intense flavour and aroma of Kaffir lime is captured, ready to conveniently add to your Asian dishes, ensuring delicious authentic results.
The powder is especially versatile as it can also be used in desserts, sauces, biscuits or marinades, in fact any time that a distinct and exotic citrus flavour is desired.

Why Dogs Chew on Their Skin
Every time you look, your poor dog is licking, chewing and biting on that same area. The fur is coming off and the skin appears red and irritated. Dogs will lick and chew on themselves because the area is bothering them. It could be a flea bite, dry skin, allergies, parasites, Your dog could also be experiencing pain in the area or have a cancerous growth. When a dog is licking and chewing on their fur, skin or coat, especially if it is in the same area, it is a sign it's time to take your dog to the veterinarian.
One common reason why dogs chew on their skin and coat is allergies. While humans often display respiratory symptoms such as sneezing and eye irritation from allergies, common symptoms of allergies in dogs can be compulsive chewing, licking and scratching. It may be caused by food or environmental triggers and can become a vicious cycle of using antibiotics and steroids to relieve symptoms. While steroids, antibiotics and antihistamines may provide temporary relief of symptoms, using a holistic approach can address the root cause of the itching and chewing and offer long-term results.
Natural Remedies for Dogs Chewing on Their Skin
Amazing Omegas is a researched-backed, concentrated, therapeutic fish oil providing a powerhouse of Omega 3s in just a few drops. These omega 3s can give your pet a lustrous, beautiful coat and help eliminate dandruff. Can help with dry skin and improve allergy symptoms.
Power Probiotic is essential for your pet's good health. Supports digestion, helps fight infection and enhances overall immunity. Pure, safe and no fillers. A healthy GI tract (proper balance of good and bad bacteria) enables more effective absorption of vitamins, minerals and amino acids, which gives your pet a healthier skin and coat. Very important if your pet has taken any antibiotics and steroids as these medications kill off the friendly bacteria that support overall immunity.
NotaSAN Natural homeopathic formula that fights infections and is very helpful for improving allergy symptoms, scratching and itching. Can be used safely long-term to prevent recurrences. Use with K9 Yeast Defense to reduce doggie odor. Available in drops or capsules for larger pets.
AllerEaze is an all-natural supplement that contains scientifically proven quercetin, which reduces your pet's histamine response and reduces the inflammatory response associated with allergies. Helpful for both dogs and cats
K9 Yeast Defense Fights yeast overgrowth which can contribute to chronic ear infections, licking at the groin or genitals, chewing on armpits and paws, facial rubbing, doggie odor, itching and skin problems. Say goodbye to chronic yeast infections, itching and allergy symptoms when you use Power Probiotic, NotaSAN and follow our recommended diet changes that are included on the packing slip.
ProAller is especially helpful for environmental allergies. Controls allergies, reduces itching and when combined with NotaSAN Drops, can reduce odor and red spots.
How To Choose A Diet for Dogs that Chew Their Skin
Pets with yeast and allergies can benefit from a hypoallergenic, low carbohydrate diet. Best options are to eliminate dry food (high in starchy carbohydrates) and choose a raw frozen or freeze dried raw novel protein diet in combination with some canned. Some proteins such as poultry are an allergen for many cats and dogs so avoiding common food allergens is very helpful.
Ask Ariel Your Pet Nutritionist will include a free diet suggestion on the packing slip that comes with your products. Include your pet's diet on the order form at checkout along with any other health conditions your pet may have.

Greenwood Village Protection Orders
Keeping You and Your Family Safe
At Hinds & Hinds Family Law, P.C., we are committed, first and foremost, to family safety and well-being. If you need help obtaining a protection order, or enforcing one, our Greenwood Village family lawyers are here to help.
Determining When a Protection Order Is Attainable
In terms of family law, a protection order will most likely be needed and obtainable against another individual for acts or behaviors classified as domestic violence. To obtain a restraining order for domestic violence, you must be able to prove that the person committing the acts of violence is someone now or formerly related to you by blood or marriage; someone who is living or formerly lived with you; or someone you once had an intimate relationship with.
Examples of when it may be appropriate to file a protection order may include situations in which the abuser:
- Engages in verbal abuse or harassment in the home or over the phone
- Threatens to injure himself or herself
- Threatens to physically or sexually abuse you, your children, or your animals
- Threatens you by following you or throwing things
- Grabs, punches, kicks, bites, chokes, or physically harms you in any way
- Forces sexual contact on you
- Forces you, against your will, into a designated location in the home
Determining the Correct Type of Protection Order for Your Case
There are different kinds of protection orders, or restraining orders, that the state of Colorado may issue depending on the nature and degree of the alleged domestic violence.
Common protection orders include:
- Temporary Protection Order – issued if judge perceives that you are in immediate danger, and within about 14 days, there will be a hearing to advance it to a permanent order.
- Permanent Protection Order – During your hearing, the judge can either continue the temporary protection order for a period of no more than 1 year, or the judge can enact a permanent protection order.
- Emergency Protection Order – these may be requested by local law enforcement and even social services if they believe an individual or child is in immediate danger of physical or sexual abuse.
- Civil No-Contact Orders - Generally achieved by stipulation between the parties, this may be a more appropriate and less contentious avenue to achieve the requisite level of safety for the situation.
Let Our Team Help You
The Greenwood Village family lawyers at our firm have decades of experience in family law, and unique, interdisciplinary backgrounds in social work and child advocacy. If you are in immediate danger, first get yourself out of it by calling the necessary authorities. Please call Hinds & Hinds Family Law, P.C. to help make sure you and your children are not put into a dangerous situation.

Trending This Week: What Causes Substandard Sales Engagement?
Recent research shows that successfully selling to today's buyers starts with training sales leaders in modern approaches.
May 12, 2017
Given the well-documented ineffectiveness of cold, non-personalized outreach, it's hard to understand why some sales reps still rely on it. We suspected that sales reps may not be getting the training they need, which is why we created an eBook that helps sales pros understand and implement a smarter way to engage prospective buyers.
Research recently confirmed our hunch regarding lack of training. In their 2017 Sales Manager Enablement Report, CSO Insights explored why we're seeing quota attainment on the decline as investments in sales enablement rise.
Who's Behind the Wheel?
CSO Insights compared sales leaders to drivers, pointing out that we all need to be taught the ins and outs of driving to earn a license. Even then, it takes time on the road to master the intricacies of driving. Ultimately, most drivers drive naturally, without giving it much thought. As CSO Insights says, we achieve a level of "unconscious competence" that allows us to respond quickly and effectively when we're thrown a curve ball. Picture a child running out in front of the car or someone swerving into our lane without warning. Experienced drivers can usually react in split seconds to avoid a mishap.
CSO Insights draws an analogy between being trained to drive and being trained to lead a sales team. The fact is, very few sales managers receive formal training. Instead they are sent out "on the road" and expected to lead by example without a license, so to speak. They pass along whatever habits they picked up from their own managers, good or bad. And in stressful situations, the worse habits tend to rise to the surface.
Failing to Enable Sales Leaders
If their own managers did not get schooled in social selling, it's no wonder so many sales reps struggle to excel with a modern approach to engagement. It means they are either being taught traditional tactics that no longer work, or fall back to traditional tactics at the first sign of stress.
The research shows that organizations are not taking advantage of their sales enablement investments. As the report underscores, "even if your sales managers received some training when they were first promoted, why should we assume that the skills they were taught carry forward to the roles they are expected to fulfill today? We've already noted that sales is in a period of rapid transformation and that salespeople need to adapt. Shouldn't sales managers be taught to adapt as well?"
Evolving from Sales 1.0 to Sales 3.0
CSO Insights calls managers who are behind the times "Sales 1.0" managers. It then defines the next evolution of sales managers and teams:
- Sales 2.0: This generation of sales recognizes empowered committees of buyers are in more control but still seek expert guidance in making a purchase decision. Here the sales team calls upon tools like social media to better engage buyers.
- Sales 3.0: At this stage, sales organizations build upon Sales 2.0 to apply technology so they can even more effectively do their jobs.
The report explains that "Sales 2.0 and Sales 3.0 are all about adapting salespeople to the reality of smarter buyers' changing behaviors…unless your sales managers adapt their management techniques, they will become a drag on performance and keep even the most forward-thinking sales enablement initiatives from reaching their full potential."
The takeaway for managers and sales pros alike? You don't have to rely on someone else to get you up to speed on the practices that engage today's buyers. Inadequate training is no match for proactive learning.
To learn more ways to effectively engaging today's B2B buyers, download our eBook, LinkedIn's Definitive Guide to Smarter Sales Engagement.

DID YOU KNOW: Thyroid therapy was used to cure polio and breast cancer, as well as prevent dementia?
There is quite a substantial body of science regarding thyroid health on the web. Just as with anything, some of the information may be incorrect, however the majority of valuable data comes from longtime researchers and providers like Dr. Barnes, Dr. Wilson, Dr. Lowe and others.
Once again on a trip back to the future, people with thyroid problems and the thyroid were not disregarded as "flakes". And it seemed that doctors knew what tests to order and how to properly interpret them s well. They also had no fear of natural thyroid products such as Armour.
Today, it seems as if the thyroid is some taboo gland that will, if not functioning very well on the hypothyroid side, lead you only to the following scenario - a TSH only test - or if you are lucky you might get a TSH and a T4 - and maybe if your result is outside the old range up to 5 or even 8, you might get Synthroid.
Synthroid is synthetic T4 and it usually does not effectively address the physiological issues present. It also can lead to osteoporosis in long term treatment.
One problem is that several years ago the range for TSH results were redefined at 0.3 to 3.2. So if your doctor, NP, or lab is still relying on the old scale, get a new one.
And if they rely on the old scale, maybe they don't even know how to interpret the results.
Some people may need T3, like Cytomel, but with compounding pharmacies being attacked maybe this is herd to come by where you live.
Many people do not do well on Synthroid and really need natural glandular products, or a combination product like Thyrolar.
And you can have normal appearing lab results and still have a problem, which indicates more testing like an rT3 and/ or a TRH, and not to overlook both Free T3 and Free T4.
On the other side of the coin is a group of people with hyperactive thyroid conditions who are "radiated" to "kill" the gland and then require supplementation, usually Synthroid. This group of people should know that there are effective ways to address this situation, as hypothyroid as well, using natural therapy or in combination with drugs; usually you do not hear this too.
Of course it is worthwhile to consider that adrenal function might be evaluated first, and corrected if needed, before addressing thyroid concerns. Its that TPA (Thyroid-Pituitary-Adrenal) axis thing you know...
"The prevailing dogma says that all you need to know is that the TSH test is the gold standard for diagnosis, and the only treatment is T4-replacement/levothyroxine. Even then, the dogma usually stipulates that you use Synthroid, the top-selling levothyroxine drug, the most expensive of all the brands, the one that has legions of drug reps in its employ, and the one that not coincidentally spreads around millions in research money, grants, honoraria, freebies, samples, and support to doctors, endocrinologists, professional groups and patient organizations each year.
People deserve to know that:
there are other brands of levothyroxine than Synthroid, and despite a doctor's allegiance to one brand, another brand may work better for you (not to mention cost you far less)
some patients will not be relieved of their hypothyroidism symptoms -- such as fatigue, depression, weight gain -- despite treatment to the so-called "normal range," and will need additional treatment to regain their health
patients deserve to know that there are other thyroid medicines that for some, may better relieve their symptoms -- additional T3 as Cytomel or time-released T3, a synthetic T4/T3 combination Thyrolar, or the natural desiccated prescription thyroid drugs Armour and Nature-throid
the TSH test itself is one part of diagnosing thyroid problems, but T4, T3, free T4, free T3 tests, antibodies tests, clinical evaluation of signs and symptoms, and consideration of medical and family history, should also be part of a thorough diagnostic process for thyroid disease
The TSH "normal" range that is used to rule thyroid disease in and out may not be relevant on an individual basis, it may be flawed, and it is subject to change, making it a rocky foundation on which to base an entire diagnosis and treatment regimen"
from David Odom, MD, a UK physician: "Of course, this move in Britain is politically based. This document is no more than ossified opinion. This is in a country that has 'cookbook' medicine. So, politics rules! Likely, this our future, approaching rapidly. In my practice, I have the patient supplement Thyroid USP, so as to maintain relief from low thyroid symptoms while maintaining a youthful Free T3 (& coincidentally suppressing TSH). It is ironic that the British medical literature has pointed out 'the emperor's new clothes' regarding treatment of hypothyroidism. It turns out that suppression of the TSH is an expected consequence of thyroid supplementation that has no adverse health consequences, moreover the TSH has no specific or reliable correlation with thyroid function. The large majority of medical practitioners follow the system of prescribing synthetic levothyroxine to regulate the TSH, even though this practice has no scientific foundation. Doctors who practice Natural Hormone Replacement therapy, on the other hand, prescribe Thyroid USP or compounded T4/T3 combinations, seeking symptom reversal without regard to the TSH and find success with great benefit for patients."
Thyroid disorders 'misdiagnosed'
People with suspected thyroid disorders are being mistreated and misinformed, experts have warned.
British Thyroid Association doctors say some people are being given the wrong tests and the wrong treatment.
NHS doctors abide by expert guidelines - but the BTA says the problem comes when patients go outside the NHS.
Around 3% of the UK population has an underactive thyroid, which should be diagnosed with a blood test and treated with a synthetic hormone.
An under-active thyroid, or hypothyroidism, develops when the thyroid gland produces too little thyroxine, and it is becoming more prevalent because of the ageing population.
Symptoms can include being very tired, feeling the cold, having difficulties with memory or concentration, weight gain and fertility problems.
These are symptoms that can mimic other conditions, and experts warn an incorrect diagnosis could mean some patients could suffer harmful effects from excess thyroid hormones, while other serious conditions may go undiagnosed.
The Royal College of Physicians (RCP) recently set out guidance for how hypothyroidism should be diagnosed and treated in the UK.
It says the only accurate way to diagnose a thyroid disorder is via a blood test which measures hormone levels, and the only scientifically proven way of treating the condition is by topping up a patient's natural thyroxine levels with a synthetic form of the hormone.
But the BTA warns that information on the web and in the media about alternative ways of diagnosing and treating the condition are leading people to turn to alternative methods of diagnosis and treatments.
It says urine tests, saliva tests and measuring body temperature are not reliable ways of diagnosing the condition.
Dr Amit Allahabadia, the secretary of the BTA who wrote the editorial, said: "This is potentially an enormous problem, given that in any one year, one in four people in the United Kingdom have their thyroid function checked.
He added: "I think it is essentially doctors who are outside the NHS [who] may be misdiagnosing the condition.
"Patients may go to see them when they think they have an under-active thyroid, or when tests have shown they have normal hormone levels but they still feel ill."
Dr Allahabadia said he believed a "significant minority" of patients were affected, either directly through misdiagnosis or mistreatment or because they were being confused by inaccurate information.
Professor Peter Trainer, who chairs the clinical committee of the Society for Endocrinology which represents the specialists who treat thyroid disorders, said: "Our sympathy has to lie with the patient because there is potentially misleading information available on the web.
"It can be confusing for patients, and it can be difficult for GPs when they are confronted with that information, which is why the RCP guidance was published."

Sue Wheeler's Adventures at Sea
Cruising Stats
Itinerary – Asia North Pacific
Ship – Diamond Princess
Length – 16 Days
Distance – 5,040 Nautical Miles
Ports – Tianjin, China; Dalian, China; Busan, South Korea; Osaka, Japan; Yokohama, Japan; Whittier, Alaska
I am very excited about this cruise because it is my graduation cruise to become a Princess Commodore. "Commodore" is a designation given to Travel Consultants who have taken an educational course designed by Princess to teach Consultants all about Princess cruises. The last step to becoming a "Commodore" is taking a graduation cruise. So, once this cruise is under my belt, I will officially be a Princess Commodore! I am also excited because this will be the longest cruise I've ever taken. For 16 days we will sail from Tianjin, China all the way to Whittier, Alaska. I will visit three different countries, cross the International Date Line and surely see things I have never seen before. This is going to be an adventure of a lifetime!
My husband and I have never been to Asia before, so we decided to do a pre-cruise visit to Beijing. Beijing is the capital of China and home to the Great Wall of China. We also visited the Drum Tower where we saw a dramatic drum ceremony(our YouTube video is at: http://youtu.be/w2h9I70TozM) and the Great Wall of China. It's amazing to be able to get up close and personal with one of the Seven Wonders of the World!
From Beijing we headed to Tianjin to board the Diamond Princess… what a beautiful ship! From Tianjin we crossed the Bohai Sea to Dalian. This is China's largest port and was once occupied by Russia - you can still see the archetectural influences today. Even though the history of this city is fascinating… what really caught our attention was the local farmer's market, where seahorses and starfish are bought and sold to eat! I don't even know how one goes about eating a starfish, but if you know, please respond to this blog love to find out!
