Hi My Name is Cliff
Saturday, December 22, 2012
I accidentally went out paddle boarding with my phone in my pocket so I did the logical thing and took a picture of my foot. Fascinating.

Good Dog
Chewie swam next to me while I was on my paddle board in the lagoon yesterday. Afterwards he was so tired he didn't care that we put a hat on him. We pushed it further and found his breaking point was when we tried to make him rob a 7-11. What a killjoy.

Office Hours
If the orthopedic surgeon is going to be 40 minutes late, I'm going to get comfy in here. I'm glad he takes the time with his patients and he is super cute and smells nice so that makes up for it. I wish they had a waitress in here.

A Day with Daisy
I spent the afternoon with Daisy. We trimmed this tree and then wrapped presents for Orphans together. We were totally bonding.
Next time, pedicures/pawicures and updos!
I am officially attached to Daisy so if she fails her training, I'm going to get a service hamster.

Happy birthday Pat McDonald! You are my favorite dad by far. I am "re-gifting" you a present from 36 years and one month ago (it's me. Wasn't that clever? Don't worry I also got you a real present).
Thank you Jesus for my Pop, please reinstate Wonder bread for him. Amen

Social Media Killed My Blog
I don't think I have written a thought over 140 characters in the past year.
Social Media has killed my creative process. I use to write my ideas out on my blog until they blossomed into a beautiful comedic cornucopia.
But now I am limited to 140 characters.
You see I have to be smart, funny and timely in 140 characters in order to Tweet on Twitter which is then published to my Facebook which is then ingested by my 2,138 Facebook friends and my 1,980 "likes" on my Judy McDonald Comedian page. The responsibility to create that is very heavy on my petite yet muscular shoulders. By the time I spend my funnies on that 140 characters I am just exhausted and must sit down as I am light headed leaving no time to write a hilarious blog for you the loyal blog reader. So you see, I want to write comedy gold but social media is robbing me from you. I promise that I will add 10 characters a day and build myself back up to a full fledged blog. I promise.

Little Angel Help
This is a hard blog to write because I don't like asking for help; but before you crumble this paper up and play wastebasket basketball, please take a few minutes to read it (jokes on you because this is on the screen and if you really want to crumble it up your going to have to shell out money for a new computer, so just read it).
Even though comedy is my profession, this blog and my request are not a joke.
Perhaps this will come as a shock to you, but a few years ago I was diagnosed with clinical depression and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). You know what clinical depression is, but perhaps PTSD is a mystery. Sure, we see it on the news that our military has been coming back from war with it for years. It is also called "shell shock." People are often described as having a "thousand-mile stare." But it's not just soldiers who get it, comedians do too (really, anyone can). I was reluctant to share my challenges with many people, but now I need your help.
At times I am unable to leave the house because of all that comes with clinical depression and PTSD. You can imagine how these challenges can be a hindrance for someone who travels full time as a stand-up comedian. This letter is my way of letting more people know about my daily struggles and also an opportunity for me to ask for your help (which, again, is something that I hate doing!).
Recently, I discovered a company in the San Diego area that trains service dogs for people with PTSD and other physical and psycho-social challenges. Little Angels Service Dogs has an approval process, and I have been approved to receive one of these very special dogs! The dogs are typically Labradors that have been bred for this work. They are trained in foster homes from the moment they are weaned. The foster families do a fantastic job of getting these pups used to unusual circumstances at an early age. Once the dogs are mature enough, they are brought back to the training facility for specialized training. When all is said and done, the dog will have received more than 600 hours of training. In my case, training for my dog would include advanced obedience for public access, as well as deep pressure therapy, boundary control, and initial alert training. Included is additional training with me to help me deal with panic attacks, flashbacks and nightmares. This means that my dog would be able to interrupt my panic attacks,flashbacks and nightmares.
It will be such a relief to have this type of support at home and on the road. Little Angels Service Dogs is a non-profit agency, and every dog it provides is paid for by tax-deductible donations. The expense of training a dog so skilled is high, so people like me (who will use the dogs), as well as many others, work as volunteers to help raise some of these funds. As a recipient of a dog I will make a commitment for the duration of the dog's life, and will be required to check in routinely with Little Angels Service Dogs to monitor the animal's performance and the impact on the quality of life for the human companion (that's me).
The faster I meet my fundraising goal, the more quickly I can bring my service dog home.
This is the part where I ask for your help. My goal is to raise $10,000. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to Little Angels Service Dogs on my behalf. Any amount is appreciated and will bring me closer to my goal.
If you have any questions about the program or anything else, please give me a call. There is also really great information on the Little Angels Service Dogs website. I cannot thank you enough for your consideration of my request!
You can send donations in check form to:
Little Angels Service Dogs
Little Angels Service Dogs
PO Box 219
Jamul, CA 91935
Little Angels Service Dogs
PO Box 219
Jamul, CA 91935
Your check should be written out to "Little Angels Service Dogs," and the Memo for the check should read "PSDA1"
Thank you again for your help! I will keep all donors up-to-date about my dog. I cannot do this without you.

I lost my best friend on September 12, 2012. His name was Mac and he was a 12 year old golden retriever. Mac was a water boy. Almost everyday summer, winter, rain or shine he would be in the pool. In the last 6 years or so he didn't swim as much as he just sat on the step soaking it all in. I sometimes would think I would look out and see him drinking a cup of coffee or reading the paper when he was out there, but that only happened twice.
Mac wasn't always a golden boy.
He was very protective of me and bit his share of nieces and nephews who he thought got to close to me.
Once he even snapped and caught his tooth in my thumb. The was very apologetic about the whole thing and now I look down at my indelible "Mac Mark" and can smile.
He was horrible at posing for Christmas pictures but was one hell of a gift wrapper.
He hated when the suitcase came out when I would leave for a show and would pout and make me feel guilty. But all was forgiven as soon as I walked back in the door
We are pretty sure towards the end he got doggy dementia and forgot he was mean.
Mac was a reminder to me of what a loyal friend should look like.
Always excited to see me when I walked in the door after a long trip or just from an errand. Constantly by my side sick, healthy or otherwise.
A good drinking buddy.

Greenvile, NC Mission Trip: Pittsburgh
Sunday ~ Joy-filled Laughter! What a blessing this day has been! Our Sunday morning began with a beautiful Mass in St. Paul of the Cross Monastery Church where we were warmly welcomed by both the congregation and the Passionist priests. After a quick lunch, the group headed over to Sandcastle Waterpark for a joyful day filled with laughter, community, and water slides! And the laughter did not stop there. We were treated to a fantastic evening by Judy McDonald, a phenomenal Catholic comedian. She had us rolling with jokes about everything from hairballs to Confession to her dad's cellphone. Without a doubt, the laughter and joy in that room was contagious. :) We closed the night by meeting with our family work groups in preparation for tomorrow, the first day of work. While that sums up the day, I couldn't finish this without telling you how proud I am of these teens. Their love and kindness and thoughtfulness has truly touched my heart. On several different occasions I have witnessed one teen reaching out to another, extending a loving arm even when it took them outside of their comfort zone. We are without a doubt building the Body of Christ here in Pittsburgh, and I am thrilled to be a part of it all! Thanks for your prayers and support! We send our love and prayers your way. In Christ, Dani Moloney

Fun in Fortworth
Short video of my friend and speaker, Roy Petitfils getting PUNKED by Bishop Vann of Fort Worth. Roy returned from the restroom noticing that the Bishop switched seats with him. His facial expression is saying "The Bishop is eating my dinner. We may have to have words...and I'll be excommunicated." Bishop Vann is GREAT sport.

On the Road Again...and Again: St. Louis
Pictures of the Blessed Mother were all over Judy's house, from the refrigerator to plates with Mary's image. But the most startling and inspirational aspect that Judy touched on was Mary's "YES" to God. She said, "There is never a best time for an angel to show up and say you're going to give birth to the savior of the world."
Mary embraced the role that God had for her. As Judy shared "Mary is human. Mary has free will, just like I have free will." She stressed that Mary trusted God with everything.
Judy used this image to challenge the teens to be strong in their YES to God.
"Let your YES mean YES. Have a strong YES."

On Friday I had a repeat trip to the ER for my back and to my surprise they kept me over night and preformed a microdiscectomy on me Saturday morning. The surgery took about an hour and the surgeon removed a large part of my disk that was protruding out onto my spinal nerves which was causing my leg pain and other problems. I was in recovery for about 4 hours because I kept coughing up blood and was having trouble breathing. When they got me back to my room that's when the anesthesia started to play it's nasty tricks on me and I began hours of vomiting (are you grossed out yet?) accompanied by the worst headache I have ever been graced with.
Needless to say they kept me for a second night and I finally was released Sunday around 11am.
I am not allowed to bend, lift or twist for at least 2 months (goodbye salsa dancing while helping people move) and no driving for 1 to 2 weeks. I have been advised to stay down so you won't see me this week but I might sneak out by next week as I start to get cabin fever. I am also on drugs that could knock out a horse so I am surprised that I could even turn on my computer much less write this blog.
Speaking of drugs I must go now because the elephants I keep seeing need their breakfast.

My Friend Tam
Mr. Orland N. Tamburri, a native of Uniontown, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully at his home in V i s t a, California, just north of San Diego, w h e r e he retired following a long a n d illustrious career in the t e l e v i s i o n industry during the 'Golden Age of TV'. He was 90 years old.
The son of Luigi and Maddalena Vitti Tamburri, he was a graduate of Uniontown's South Union High, Class of 1939.
Following high school, he worked at several local Pittsburgh area radio stations before enlisting in the Navy Air Corps during World War II, where he served in the Pacific theater guiding radio controlled aircraft over enemy targets, the precursors of today's modern drone technology.
It was also while in the service that he met the love and inspiration of his life, Dorothy Caldroney, a Navy Nurse. They were happily married from 1947 until Dorothy's sudden death on December 19, 2002.
He and Dorothy had two sons, Ken Tamburri and Don Tamburri. Sadly, both are deceased.
Driven by a keen technical mind, a desire to succeed and a strong work ethic inherited from his Italian immigrant parents, he was encouraged by his mentors in the radio business after the War to travel to New York City to pursue his dreams.
It was in New York where Orland began a distinguished career as a Technical Director for the National Broadcasting Company (NBC). His career with NBC took him around the globe. He was the recipient of three Emmy Awards, two Peabody Awards and also 24 Nominations for his work as Technical Director on shows ranging from major sporting events, sitcoms and space launches, to popular game shows, political conventions and the highly acclaimed Hallmark Hall of Fame series.
He is survived by his sister, Edie Tamburri Paul of Uniontown, Pennsylvania.
He will be fondly remembered as a true gentleman considerate, selfless, generous, accomplished, genuine and humble. He will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
May he rest in peace in the comforting and waiting arms of his beloved wife, Dorothy, and sons, Ken and Don. We love you and we miss you!

I'm leaving Washington D.C. after a performance for the United StatesCatholic Conference of Bishops. The Vice President of China was at our hotel, I saw, lots of secret service, threw my back out in the shower and went into back spasm, I saw really important people, I knew they were important cause they had people with radios following them and I rode the metro and didn't get stabbed, watched the movie, The Artist, got a pedicure, ate crepes and made Bishops laugh. Thanks D.C. you are a gem and I'm glad I'm not in charge.

God's Unconditional Love
What can we say about God's love? We can say that God's love is unconditional. God does not say, "I love you, if ..." There are no ifs in God's heart. God's love for us does not depend on what we do or say, on our looks or intelligence, on our success
or popularity. God's love for us existed before we were born and will exist after
we have died. God's love is from eternity to eternity and is not bound to any time-related events or circumstances. Does that mean that God does not care what we do or say?
No, because God's love wouldn't be real if God didn't care. To love without condition does not mean to love without concern. God desires to enter into relationship with us and wants us to love God in return.
Let's dare to enter into an intimate relationship with God without fear, trusting that we will receive love and always more love.

The Catholic Virginian
Virginia Catholic Campus Ministry Summit set Feb. 3-4
by Michael School
special to The Catholic Virginian
A little known fact about the Diocese of Richmond is that within our geographic footprint there are over 68 institutions of higher education (colleges and universities).
Based on national statistics, the diocese estimates there are over 88,000 Catholic college students (or about 30 percent of the college population) within our diocesan boundaries.
In a bold new step, the Office for Evangelization of Youth and Young Adults is hosting its first-ever Virginia Catholic Campus Ministry Summit beginning the evening of Friday, February 3, through Saturday, February 4 at St. Thomas Aquinas Church, Charlottesville. It will gather young adults from across the diocese who attend our college campuses for a 24-hour opportunity to be with other young adults who are Catholic.
Often times, our college students have attended high school with students from other colleges and this will be a time for students to rekindle old friendships and make new friends.
Throughout the scriptures, God does big things at the tops of mountains. From Mt. Sinai where the Lord gives Moses the Ten Commandments, to Mt. Tabor where Christ is transfigured before the eyes of his Apostles, and everywhere in between, God seems to speak most clearly and profoundly to his people on summits.
The theme for this year's Summit is "ARISE" based on the words of the prophet Isaiah (60:1). Weaving together the theme for the Summit is keynote presenter Ennie Hickman of ADORE Ministries.
Now, in his 12th year of evangelization work, Ennie and his family are full time Missionaries in Houston, TX. Through his personal testimony and unique way of relating to individuals, Ennie has helped God change lives. He has spoken at numerous large retreats and conferences throughout the country, Europe and Africa.
Another speaker will be Catholic comedian Judy McDonald who will share her story of growing up as a Catholic young adult.
The Summit will provide an opportunity to learn more about one's individual and communal Catholic faith through talks, breakout sessions, and speakers. In addition, all participants of the Summit can participate in the Sacraments during the weekend.
Because of the generosity of the Diocesan Annual Appeal, the Summit will cost only $10 which includes lodging, bus transportation from each college campus, and meals. It is open to all students who attend any type of college or university in the state of Virginia.

Who Should You Put in Charge of Social Media?
After you've picked which social media platforms to make use of, out of the many options available, the next step is designating which employees you'd like to place in charge of posting content on each platform.
And that decision shouldn't be taken lightly. The person in charge of your social media pages is in charge of the message and brand voice you project to your followers.
That is why, even though Snap Fitness has an entire marketing team at its disposal, only one or two people have actual posting power. "At the corporate level, our whole marketing team has input, but we limit direct access to one to two people, so the brand voice is consistent, and there aren't questions as to whose responsibility it is to post different messaging," explained Katie Bresnahan, the social media coordinator for Snap Fitness.
However, Snap Fitness' franchisees have a bit more discretion. "We charge our franchisees with running their own local social media accounts, as they know their members on a personal level, and club offerings will vary by location," explained Bresnahan. "We give our franchisees training when they come to Snap Fitness University, our franchisee training program, so they have a basic knowledge of what to do with their social media. Then, [we] provide an abundance of training manuals and frequently updated materials for them, so they can keep up with the ever-changing space."
GoodLife Fitness, based in Canada, handles its social media training similarly. "Our social media team at home office decides what gets posted to our main corporate accounts, and we rely on the judgment of our local and regional teams to post what is appropriate," said Justin Cipparone, the marketing manager of social media for GoodLife Fitness.
However, what exactly is deemed appropriate? To answer this question, GoodLife created a list of guidelines its employees should follow when acting as a GoodLife representative. "If a GoodLife Fitness associate is posting on social media as a representative of GoodLife Fitness, we ask them to follow certain guidelines, such as; behave online as you would offline; respect the privacy of others; and provide accurate and honest information," explained Cipparone. "We do not police personal or private social media posts by our associates when they are not acting as a representative of GoodLife Fitness."
Ultimately, trust should be an important factor in who operates your social media accounts. "We do have a manual that explains guidelines when talking about Snap Fitness on social media, but for the most part, we trust that the staff in our system will use their best judgment in what is, and is not, appropriate to post on channels," concluded Bresnahan.

New York, NY – The failure of Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos and his Senate Republicans to consider and publicly support a petition by Rules Committee members to have a public hearing on Governor Cuomo's Redistricting Reform bill is a censorious action that proves they have no real interest allowing a public debate on the issue.
Despite more than 30 Republicans signing the Koch Pledge last summer to move forward on reform issues, failure of the Senate GOP to even allow a public hearing demonstrates that they believe in a tyrannical majority that uses censorship to avoid being held accountable for their commitments.
Skelos and other Republicans need to immediately and publicly voice their legitimate concerns about the bill, otherwise they need to allow a public hearing and allow the bill to move forward to a vote.
Hiding behind last year's Democratic inaction on redistricting issue while they were in the majority is no excuse for stifling public debate on an issue that is critical to change how Albany operates.
We continue to urge Governor Cuomo to start using some of his personal political capitol to move this issue forward as I stated in a release last week.

When I announced that I was pregnant with Little Bean, a number of people asked me if I had joined any of the pregnancy clubs and I just stared at them with a blank expression on my face. I assumed they were talking about a Mother and Baby type club where you turn up and chat with other pregnant people but I was wrong. I soon accumulated a list of Parenting and Pregnancy Clubs that I could join online which would give me a whole host of information about my growing bump, pregnancy birth, bringing baby home, feeding baby, baby sleep and so on for every stage through parenting. Some sites even have an area where you can start your own blog or chat with other Mums and Mums-to-be on forums. They can be a fantastic source of support and information, which for a first time Mum can be a saviour. Many of the sites also send you money-off vouchers to help you save your pennies.

Are you currently facing any legal trouble? If you are, you'll need the services of a lawyer. A lawyer can mean the difference between a ruling in your favor or a ruling in your opponents favor. Check out the following tips for information on how to find a good lawyer.
Do not hire a lawyer without doing some background research. Look their name up on the Internet and talk to friends or relatives who might know the lawyer you are interested in. It is always in your best interest to choose a lawyer with an excellent reputation and good ethics.
Don't just pick the first lawyer you find on the Internet. It is tempting to think lawyers all do the same thing, but they can vary in quality and expertise. Ask friends if they know a good lawyer and what he represented them for. Be picky when choosing legal help.
Find out up front how frequently you should be in tough with your lawyer. If you need them to get in touch with you quickly after you contact them, communicate that to them up front. If you face this problem with your current lawyer, find a new lawyer at your earliest convenience.
When you're shopping around for an attorney, choose one that specializes in the same type of court case you're involved in. You can find a lawyer for just about any specialty. Some examples are estate law, criminal law and more. Researching this aspect of a lawyer's profile in advance can prevent you from wasting lots of time.
Try not to make money an issue when you are trying to find the best lawyer for your case. The object is for you to get out of the pickle that you are in, and sometimes this means to shell out a couple of extra dollars to get the desired result.
When hiring a lawyer, ask them who exactly will be dealing with your case. Many times it will not be the big name head of the firm, but instead someone below them who has a clearer schedule. If this doesn't appeal to you, choose another law firm for your needs.
When choosing a lawyer, remember that you are choosing a lawyer. This may sound like common sense, but many try to choose their lawyer based on if they are friendly and warm. This is a mistake. A good lawyer doesn't need to have the same qualities that you'd want in a friend. You need a professional who will treat you professionally. Remember that this is nothing more or less than another business relationship.
Take your time when looking for a lawyer. You may be tempted to hire the first one you talk to, but this is not a good idea. You need to shop around for a lawyer the same way that you would for a car. Only then can you decide which attorney is a good fit for you.
If you question your current lawyers abilities, ask someone for a second opinion. It may not be finacnially realistic to change lawyers. A second opinion is a good idea before making any decisions.
Try searching online for a lawyer. While there are many industry resources for finding a lawyer, search engines are great for jump-starting your search. You can use them to quickly find local lawyers too. There are also many search engines out there that are specifically made for finding lawyers. Some can narrow down your search to lawyers within certain zip codes and states.
If you have legal problems, your best bet of overcoming them is by using a lawyer. A lawyer has the skills needed to argue your case in court and make sure that the court rules in your favor. If you put this article's tips to good use, you can find a lawyer who will meet your legal needs.

Guide for buying the right camera
Buying a camera is not an easy task. There are a multitude of models on the market at very different prices, especially since each camera has its own characteristics. How do you know which Camera & Photo Filter best suits your needs? Here are thefour main things to know before buying a camera.
It's exactly the same for the cameras. There are several models in line with the different needs of individuals and professionals. The secret is to know your needs because it is the answer to this question that will guide your choice towards one model over another.
Before you go through the doors of a store or access a website that sells cameras online, ask yourself five essential questions that will allow you to separate one by one the different models available and to target your choice.
Is the size of my camera important?
The size of a camera is an important element to consider before buying. Small cameras are lighter, more convenient and less cumbersome than those with a large lens. Professional cameras incorporate a lot of great options but are less portable.
A Camera: Automatic or manual?
Some people like to configure their camera and discover the multitude of options available, others prefer to press "play" and let their camera work in their place . Knowing if you prefer to control your camera or give it that freedom will help you in your choice. If you want to zoom in as you like or configure the sound precisely, you can focus on the models that will allow you to do these tasks.
Is the Recording Camera format important?
One of the important features you need to consider is the recording format. The format does not seem important at first glance when recording a video, but when it comes to transferring our videos to our computer or other media, we understand how important this aspect is. Some models record on tape, but most cameras nowadays record on a card or on an integrated hard disk that cannot be removed from the camera. Once again, your preference will be decisive in your choice. Think carefully about convenience, storage, compatibility and availability.
Is the sound of the Camera so important?
The ability to connect an external microphone to your camera is a major advantage that you should also consider when buying your camera, especially if you intend to use it professionally. Sometimes you may need to record an interview, a concert or a big event for a production job. In most cases, it is better to choose a camera with a microphone connection, although the microphone jack is another possibility. That said, cameras that have a microphone jack often require the use of an adapter to connect a professional microphone.

Metals are one of the things that are given to us by mother earth. There are hundreds of metals that are found on the face of the planet like Aluminum, Zinc, Copper, Brass, and many more.

Greater Buffet Option for You
Here are five questions to ask yourself before choosing the catering to entrust the management of the wedding reception.
What is the style of corporate events?
The first question to ask is what style of corporate events is and in which environment you are most comfortable. If you love luxury, choosing a catering that makes the rustic its strong point may not be the winning choice and vice versa.
Starting from word of mouth and doing research by relying on catering that has a website or a Facebook page on which to view portfolio images and already organized events, can be a good way to guide your choice. Moreover, most of the catering organizes test evenings where it is possible to sample some courses and get an idea of the menu and the various preparations that will be presented during the wedding reception. For the best interational buffer catering in singapore this is important.
Where will the lunch take place?
Also the choice of the room or restaurant has its importance and must be in line with the style of the wedding. Some catering companies also offer dining spaces, while in other cases you may want to choose a different location.
Moreover, it is important to understand if any structures (tables, gazebos, etc. etc.) are provided by the catering company and at what price.
Buffet or served?
Do you dream of a lunch with endless courses or do you prefer a tasty and original wedding buffet , in which guests can choose what and how much to eat? The two alternatives completely change the atmosphere of the lunch and, not a secondary aspect, the cost.
A good catering service offers both possibilities and even the middle way: buffet with only a few courses served.
Special menus
When it comes to hosting a large number of people it is very likely that there is a need for special menus.
The numerous food intolerances (celiac disease, intolerance to dairy products or eggs, etc.), ethical choices (vegan, vegetarian, etc.) and the particular situations of the guests (presence of many elderly or children, etc.) require the offer versatility.
A good catering service knows how to adapt its offer to special requests and propose alternative menus for some of the guests. For recommending singapore's best discoveries this is a very important option.
How much are you going to spend?
Even if the adage teaches us that those who spend less spend less, it is not always said that the cost of a good catering must necessarily be very high.
Start with your budget and list what are the essential features for you. You could save money by choosing, for example, to make a mixed buffet with just a few courses served or choose a less demanding location.
If, on the other hand, you don't want to put limits on service or quality, go and try the various services to find out which one is right for you. The advice of others is always welcome, but testing in person is fundamental to the choice.
Prestamos en linea de vacaciones
Para pasar unas vacaciones con placer, necesita tener tanto dinero para no negarse nada. En este caso, un Prestamos en linea es la opción más asequible: para unas vacaciones, puede organizar un consumidor habitual o puede tomar un objetivo. Muchos bancos ofrecen una variedad de opciones de Préstamos en línea para los vacacionistas. De una forma u otra, pero al menos una vez cada pocos años, puede darse el lujo de pasar sus vacaciones de la forma que desee y no preocuparse por dónde deshacerse del dinero durante un año.
El crédito al consumidor es bueno porque puede reembolsarse en partes iguales o antes, siempre que sea posible. Si en cualquier banco usted tiene un historial de crédito positivo, es mejor solicitar un Prestamos en linea allí. Obtener un Prestamos en linea no toma mucho tiempo, las solicitudes se revisan y satisfacen un máximo dentro de un par de semanas. Pero no debe posponer el Prestamos en linea el último mes antes del lanzamiento, de lo contrario, existe la posibilidad de que no tenga tiempo de viajar al mar debido a circunstancias imprevistas.
Es mejor hacer todo por adelantado y colocar la cantidad recibida en un depósito a plazo o en un depósito a la vista. Si mantiene su dinero en la tarjeta, tendrá la tentación de gastar una pequeña cantidad y su dinero simplemente se desvanecerá antes de que comiencen las vacaciones. Una vez emitidos y pagados los vales para el mar, el dinero restante ya puede transferirse a una tarjeta (por cierto, es mejor que el resto emita una tarjeta en varias monedas para retirar dinero en la moneda necesaria según sea necesario). Por lo tanto, el problema de dónde obtener dinero para descansar puede considerarse resuelto.
¿Cómo conseguir urgentemente dinero para unas vacaciones?
Imagina que tienes la oportunidad de ir de vacaciones al mar durante una o dos semanas y, desafortunadamente, no hay dinero gratis a tu disposición. Y por eso quiero ir al mar, especialmente porque el cupón se está quemando, y el viaje del invierno al verano es muy tentador. ¿Dónde conseguir dinero urgentemente en vacaciones en este caso?
Nada es imposible para una persona rusa, especialmente ahora, cuando el sistema de crédito ofrece opciones una es más tentadora que la otra. Puede recibir dinero urgentemente emitiendo una tarjeta de crédito. Por cierto, estas tarjetas pueden emitirse por una cierta cantidad de dinero, y puede elegir la opción de crédito ilimitado. Por supuesto, en este caso, el banco no podrá reponer constantemente su cuenta, cualquier cantidad estipulada por las condiciones deberá extinguirse a tiempo. En cualquier caso, vale la pena considerar ambas opciones, podrán realizar su sueño de viajar o relajarse en el mar.
La solicitud de una tarjeta de crédito se considera dentro de las 24 horas, y si el banco responde positivamente, podrá recibir el monto requerido en un par de días. Otra ventaja al hacer una tarjeta de crédito es la llamada moratoria sobre el pago de intereses sobre el Prestamos en linea. Es decir, durante un cierto tiempo (de 1 a 2 meses), será suficiente para que pague el monto de la deuda principal, sin pagar intereses. En una palabra, cuantos tomaron, dan tanto. Por lo tanto, al elegir una opción de Préstamos en línea similar, no solo tendrá tiempo para irse de vacaciones al mar, sino que también pagará el Prestamos en linea sin pagar de más.

Has anybody tried removing reverb with Spin It Again?? I know reverb is a moving target, just wondered if anybody tried it yet. I'm starting to experiment with it.
Spin it again has worked wonders on the hiss on all my old band cassette tapes, and on my DBX tapes when us dummies left a fan or the AC unit running.

English Classes
Our purpose for English classes is three-fold:
- To meet an expressed need for English courses in the community.
- To study the bible in people's first language and in English.
- To build relationships with people.
The English Classes project is directed by ICDI missionary Bridget Abbott. She has a master's degree in education and 15 years of experience teaching in public school and home school settings.
Bridget talks about the project: I love my students and teaching! Many thanks to those who support the English Classes and have volunteered with me.
Why teach English? When Paul and I began living at Emmanuel Center a Cabécar family stopped by to visit. Over coffee the mother asked me if I would teach English to her four-year-old. I was surprised, knowing that the children study both Cabécar and Spanish in school. Now I realize that parents see English as a means to open doors to their children's future. It enables them to earn a high school diploma, it could mean employment or studying at the university, and much of the information on the internet is in English. Also, there are not enough qualified English teachers in Costa Rica to staff the schools in rural regions like ours.
Where are your classes? I have been invited to start English classes in three communities: Paso Marcos, Santubal, and Grano de Oro. In addition to my regular weekly classes, I sometimes tutor teachers who are studying English.
Who are your students? My students range in age from five years old to adults and speak Spanish or Cabécar as their first language.
Do you teach alone? Usually I teach alone, but occasionally visitors accompany me to do special activities. It means the students hear other native English speakers and work in smaller groups with more time to talk.
One week a short term mission team helped me with an after school English Camp. It was in a community where I am not able to teach weekly classes. The parents were so happy to see their children practice their English!
What are donations used for? Donate to English Classes and the funds enable us to:
- Purchase elementary teaching materials that cost $2 per month per student
- Offer a high school or adult student a scholarship to pay for class fees and books. The class fee is $2 per week and the books are $20 per year. ($20 is equivalent to a day's wage in our region of Costa Rica.)
- Enable the director of the English Classes project to take continuing education courses.

But at least partially designed by a mainstream celebrity will cause many of those critical of the replica watches to nearly short circuit in a commenting frenzy. While breitling replica sale obvious that this piece is going to be geared towards the mainland UK market, I think this can be seen as a viable men watch in the Western market as well. Les Artisans de replica watches sale make other models in even more limited production runs, but my point is to demonstrate that at the end of the day, these are products that will appeal to the replica watches uk who just likes the concept, is attracted to the watch, and for whom the cost of this watch is as rolex replica as the percentage. Personally, I think it looks great, and even considering how many rolex replica uk the aBlogtoWatch team sees every day.ReplyDelete

Fayetteville Authors And Entrepreneurs Release New Book: MARKENDISING
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., March 9, 2016 – Alex Ahmad and Eric Howerton today released their first book, MARKENDISING, an in-depth study of the relationships between manufacturers and shoppers and the changing dynamics in interactions between the two. Ahmad and Howerton explore the dynamics Millennials bring to the world of online and in-store shopping, and provide a fresh take on how manufacturers and retailers can adapt to effectively capture this growing shopper market.
The book, currently available at markendising.com and Amazon.com, is an important tool for any marketer or merchandiser looking to find a competitive advantage in the fast paced world of e-commerce.
"Manufacturers in retail environments, in-store or online, need to embrace the importance of data and content to satisfy today's omni-channel shopper.," Howerton says, "Today's shoppers must be addressed with data and content in a world of constantly evolving technology and consumption opportunities."
The ultimate solution according to the authors in MARKENDISING is the "Mega SKU," or a product detail page that tells the full story of a product. The "Mega SKU" differentiates from today's product pages on most major retailer sites by providing up to 95 percent more data and content that omni-channel shoppers use to make purchasing decisions. Using this approach allows a shopper to learn more about a product from their home computer or mobile device without the need to seek out the expertise of in-store personnel, thereby streamlining the shopping process.
In addition to providing shoppers with a fuller information picture about a product, the "Mega SKU" approach outlined in MARKENDISING also provides the benefit of search engine optimization, which leads targeted shoppers directly to products faster, eliminating research time and enhancing the likelihood of purchase.
"People don't want ads when they are at the critical moment of a transaction," says Ahmad. "They want credible and useful information. That's what MARKENDISING is all about."
MARKENDISING is available in both print ($14.99) and digital ($11.99) formats on www.Markendising.com, Amazon and soon to be released on iTunes and Google Play.

Just wanted to write a quick post and tell you a story of when my most precious household items got water logged after a small accident in my house. Ok, it wasn't as bad as this picture but still pretty bad!
My hot water heater busted and sent a flood of water into my house while I was away on vacation! Lucky for me, my fabulous local plumber was able to get to my house as soon as I called him and get the repairs done on my hot water heater very fast. It's always a good idea to have emergency technicians, like plumbers, electricians or air conditioner guys you trust already in your contact list.
Anyway, I found these 10 tips on salvaging water damaged family heirlooms very helpful from the Heritage Preservation society. You can read the entire article here: http://www.heritagepreservation.org/PROGRAMS/tftips.htm
1. If the object is still wet, rinse with clear water or a fine hose spray. Clean off dry silt and debris from your belongings with soft brushes or dab with damp cloths. Try not to grind debris into objects; overly energetic cleaning will cause scratching. Dry with a clean, soft cloth. Use plastic or rubber gloves for your own protection.
2. Air dry objects indoors if possible. Sunlight and heat may dry certain materials too quickly, causing splits, warping, and buckling. If possible, remove contents from wet objects and furniture prior to drying. Storing damp items in sealed plastic bags will cause mold to develop. If objects are to be transported in plastic bags, keep bags open and air circulating.
3. The best way to inhibit the growth of mold and mildew is to reduce humidity. Increase air flow with fans, open windows, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers. Moderate light exposure (open shades, leave basement lights on) can also reduce mold and mildew.
4. Remove heavy deposits of mold growth from walls, baseboards, floors, and other household surfaces with commercially available disinfectants. Avoid the use of disinfectants on historic wallpapers. Follow manufacturers' instructions, but avoid splattering or contact with objects and wallpapers as disinfectants may damage objects.
Note: Exposure to molds can have serious health consequences such as respiratory problems, skin and eye irritation, and infections. The use of protective gear, including a respirator with a particulate filter, disposable plastic gloves, goggles or protective eyewear, and coveralls or a lab coat, is therefore essential.
5. If objects are broken or begin to fall apart, place all broken pieces, bits of veneer, and detached parts in clearly labeled, open containers. Do not attempt to repair objects until completely dry or, in the case of important materials, until you have consulted with a professional conservator.
6. Documents, books, photographs, and works of art on paper may be extremely fragile when wet; use caution when handling. Free the edges of prints and paper objects in mats and frames, if possible. These should be allowed to air dry. Rinse mud off wet photographs with clear water, but do not touch surfaces. Sodden books and papers should also be air dried or kept in a refrigerator or freezer until they can be treated by a professional conservator.
7. Textiles, leather, and other "organic" materials will also be severely affected by exposure to water and should be allowed to air dry. Shaped objects, such as garments or baskets, should be supported by gently padding with toweling or uninked, uncoated paper. Renew padding when it becomes saturated with water. Dry clean or launder textiles and carpets as you normally would.
8. Remove wet paintings from the frame, but not the stretcher. Air dry, face up, away from direct sunlight.
9. Furniture finishes and painting surfaces may develop a white haze or bloom from contact with water and humidity. These problems do not require immediate attention; consult a professional conservator for treatment.
10. Rinse metal objects exposed to flood waters, mud, or silt with clear water and dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth. Allow heavy mud deposits on large metal objects, such as sculpture, to dry. Caked mud can be removed later. Consult a professional conservator for further treatment.
So what do you think? Have you ever had any terrible experience in your house? Share your stories in the comments!

I'm always looking for new places to eat and drink in Manchester, so when I see a new one pop up, I'm the first to go and scope it out. However, it seems I was a little behind with Spinningfield's newest launch – The Refinery – which I walked past the other day and didn't know a great deal about it. But I was instantly in awe of the place, situation at the side of the new classy XYZ building (which looks out of this world).
So a couple of weekends later, I booked myself, my boyfriend, my sister and brother-in-law in for a late lunch session at The Refinery. And as it was a Sunday, it's also an excuse for a cheeky Sunday drink to fade away those Sunday blues.
First up: the interior. I'm a sucker for a fresh, clean yet glamorous interior, and that's exactly the way I'd sum up my arrival at The Refinery. It's seriously stylish with a touch of dazzling class, yet isn't in any way tacky or flashy. Think bright hanging lights, dramatic monochrome print flooring, with warm glows of candle light and snuggly sheepskin throws over the chairs. A little eclectic, yet spacious and modern.
Our host was welcoming and friendly, being overly attentive from start to finish. I often make first impressions based on how I'm greeted, as a lot of people do, and our particular host really impressed me. She made us feel looked after as soon as we were seated, going through the drinks menus and discussing the food.
Within 10 minutes, a lovely bottle of red was on the table, and my sister was drinking some delicious ginger infused cocktail (and the men were on Peroni's – yes the bottle of red was kinda all for me!)
We decided to go all out and experience a three course meal for our Sunday lunch, which lead to three of them ordering the Scotch Egg with chorizo and smoked paprika mayonnaise. They all said it was refreshing to see a modernised version of the Scotch egg on the menu, with all three of them commenting on how tasty it was.
I'm not really an egg fan, so I opted for the satay chicken skewers, in which the peanut infused sauce was incredible. There were four skewers which was a generous portion for a starter, which for someone with a huge appetite like me was great to see.
We all opted for different mains, which gave us variety across the table in which I could check out everyone else's dishes. Firstly, I'm by no means a salad girl, but there was something about the smoked chicken, avocado, mango and cashew nut salad which just jumped out at me. So well done to The Refinery for actually tempting me for a salad option. This rarely happens.
I wasn't disappointed either when it arrived. Again, the portion size was generous, packed with large juicy chunks of chicken, mango and soft avocado. My boyfriend went for the Chicken Roast Dinner, which was massive! He had more chicken than he could handle, and he really does enjoy his chicken.
I did get a slight touch of food envy at my brother-in-law's buttermilk chicken burger with chunky chips and chipotle mayonnaise though. The buttermilk batter was super soft with a slight crisp to it, and for a burger option, it looked delicious!
My sister went for the Wagyu Burger, so quite a mixed bag across the table. I was genuinely surprised how much I enjoyed mine, and even more surprised at how much avocado was packed into the salad. Although a salad to me is usually a lighter option, I wouldn't say this was a light choice at all. It was just as satisfying, tasty and filling as all the others.
So a three course meal isn't complete without dessert, and I made no hesitation with selecting the Knickerbocker Glory. This tall sundae glass came stuffed with salted caramel ice cream, honeycomb, almonds and a topping of thick cream. I'd go as far as to say it was heaven in a glass. It had much more texture and 'things-going-on' (if that makes sense!) than other ice cream desserts I've had. There were chunks of honeycomb, swirls of cream, flaked almonds and a bit of a crunch every now and again.
My sister went for my next favourite dessert I'd been eyeing up – the chocolate brownie with a side of vanilla ice cream. Again, I couldn't fault this sweet treat. It was rich, dense and packed with gooey chunks of chocolate. It's safe to say we all left with overly full bellies!
Overall, I'd describe the food offering as fresh, homely British cooked food, suitable for casual dining but also for that something special. I noticed they specialise in brunch deals too, which come with unlimited bloody Mary cocktails. Let me just say I'm VERY interested at checking out this bottomless brunch offering!
It's a bustling, warm bar and eatery, bringing elements of home comforts to the general vibe and atmosphere. There are rows of packed shelves around the walls, and the toilets even have a jar of Quality Street chocolates in them. Swanky, right?
You can find The Refinery at the XYZ building in Spinningfields, Manchester.

No matter how well coached or which clubs they are affiliated to, all kids start their soccer careers and learn the game by playing with their friend's in the street or at school. This is where they really fall in love with soccer and many come home every day with the scarred knees to prove it! But when playing in the backyard or on the street, you often need a special kind of ball to stand up to the job so what are the best footballs for concrete?
Well, they definitely ARE NOT the same soccer balls you would use on grass or in a professional game.
We've put together a list of the top 7 soccer balls we would recommend for playing on concrete:
This really is the Daddy of Street Soccer Balls and has received fantastic reviews from Amazon customers.
This ball is made from hand sewn synthetic tire material, which means its tough and robust and won't easily get damaged on concrete.
This ball is an official size ball, and is designed not only for street soccer, but to help players develop ball control, juggling skills, passing and the ability to strike the ball with power.
Unlike the other balls in this review the Kixsports has been designed with special fins, to slow down the speed of the ball and the distance you can get from kicking it, to help you improve your game.
Made from rubber tire tread, this soccer ball is extremely durable and designed for use on the tough streets.
The bladder holds air for over 2 months and it is designed to play as closely as possible to a regular soccer ball.
This is one of Amazon's recommendations and has received lots of 5 star reviews from happy customers.
In our view this is the ultimate street soccer ball, and this is backed up by the guys at Urban Pitch
It is brilliantly designed with 32 panels sewn together, producing a near perfect sphere. Once inflated, hand stitching provides tighter and stronger seams meaning it will last a long time.
It is intended for game play on asphalt, concrete, other rugged terrain, and hard courts and will stand up to the heaviest of use.
Each panel is made with rubberized materials, and therefore has a stronger grip compared to regular soccer balls. This allows you to practice your swerve shots with both the inside and outside of your foot.
The Senda Street ball features 3 layers of polyester/cotton hybrid linings placed between the cover and the bladder to help the ball retain its shape and bounce. It has an inflatable latex bladder which offers the softest feel and provides better surface tension.
As with any Senda ball, it is Fair Trade Certified, ensuring all workers receive at least the national minimum wage, and there is no child labor involved.
Watch the ball in action in the video below:
This incredible ultra-durable soccer ball never needs a pump and never goes flat even when punctured! It is built to last through the ages by withstanding the harshest environments.
You cannot distinguish it from a normal soccer ball and when you kick it you appreciate the accuracy and the toughness in it.
It is available in different sizes, adult size 5 and the youth size 4. A really great feature is that for every ball purchased the manufacturer donates to fund play projects that enable play for youth living in disadvantaged communities worldwide.
This is the perfect ball for training up your ball control on the street and gives you the option of making practicing by yourself more fun too.
This ball comes with a rubber string that you attach to your wrist meaning that the ball will always come back to you, giving you the chance to develop both your close ball control and coordination.
It is made with a soft, shiny PVC cover and is ideal for solo technique training as well as ball receiving, shooting and coordination.
If you're looking for a mid-range street soccer ball for use on concrete that keeps you playing all weekend long then this is it.
The Select Street Soccer ball was built exclusively for games and play on the street. It has a regular bounce and is fitted with a cover made of an extra durable rubber material to protect it from constant kicking against the kerb. You can keep playing with this ball on your street for years!
If you're looking for a true 'street' soccer ball that buys into the concept of street soccer and above all looks the best, then this is the ball you should be using. The cool graffiti design with its eye popping colors really make it stand out and this is definitely one of the best street soccer balls you can get for using on concrete.
The technology allows this ball to be waterproof meaning you can play in all conditions. The restricted bladder never lets the ball become larger than regulation size and it is suitable for a range of surfaces but especially concrete.
This soccer ball meets all the regulations and the textured material gives the street ball exceptional durability.
It's great to say that all of these balls are top quality and designed specifically for outside use on the street, concrete and tarmac surfaces. No longer do you need to fear damaging your new leather soccer ball with these great choices.

Resonator delete / addition Sound Modifications
Resonators provide a wide array of benefits to vehicle owners. Internal combustion engines usually make a lot of noise while they are running, and this noise can be annoying and exhaustive to your ears, especially when it is heard for a long period of time. Thus, mufflers were created to reduce the noise generated by the exhaust system.
Aside from reducing the noise from the engine's exhaust system, resonators also enhance overall engine performance and smoother driving because more horsepower is yielded without wasting as much fuel. Noise suppression also helps in passing fuel emission tests, as the resonator prevents chassis rattling, an effect that usually leads to contaminated fuel emissions.
Zury Fabrications is an independent welding and fabrication shop which is the leader in enhancing the overall exhaust system. We offer super competitive pricing and fast solutions for Exhaust system. We have a very friendly and knowledgeable staff, at Zury Fabrications .We provides our customers with the highest level of customer service in the industry.

This recording taken on 17th June 2012, with Sony PCM-M10 using internal mics with Rycote Mini Windjammer, from a quite exposed position on Beeny Cliff, not far from Boscastle, Cornwall, UK. This is at a point where the original and very exposed section of the coast path had been abandoned and a less exposed diversion established, but here I got onto that exposed bit, where the sea is undercutting the cliffs.
Because it is relatively deep sea here against the cliff, you don't get the sound of breaking waves, but instead, with the gentle swell on this day, you get a constant gentle rippling and splashing. With a bigger swell it sounds more interesting. Unfortunately the best spot for this sound was rather catching the breeze, and the Mini Windjammer was only a partial protection.
Please note that the volume level of this recording has been carefully adjusted for listening purposes, and ALL my recordings so far are meant to be listened to with a volume setting that would give a realistic level for playback of CLASSICAL music (a large but not exceptional symphony orchestra). If you have the right volume setting, you should not need to change that setting from one recording of mine to another.
**Please remember to give this recording a rating! http://www.broad-horizon-nature.co.uk/me-icon_wink.gif **
Great, thanks. Love your personal web site too. Gonna take ages to read---so much quality writing in there---but it'll be worth it. Top man. All the best to you.
Love it. Thanks!
Thanks for the auditory coastal ambiance. Nice work!

Happy 8th Birthday Narmer!!!
Hola Reinas (Hello Queens),
On August 8th, we celebrated my son's, Narmer, eighth birthday. Wow!!! Time has flown by so fast. It is still fresh on my mind when my husband and I brought him home from the hospital (NYU Medical Center - Manhattan) measuring 20 inches, six pounds & 11oz. Today, he stands at 4'4", 69 lb. My gift of joy is growing up into an outstanding young little man.
My son has brought the BEST out in me. He is one of the reasons why I returned to school to pursue my Masters in Education and becoming a teacher. I am ready to take on the world and make an impact on the future of our children. He has inspired me to put my best foot forward each and every day with dignity and pride. I have really enjoyed this chapter of my life as a MOM. It has been very enlightening and rewarding, and I am looking forward to the upcoming challenges in my new teaching career. I now have the ability to make a positive impact on many children in our community, year after year!!!
To celebrate his birthday, I brought cake and pizza for all children at his soccer camp. In addition, on Monday, August 12th, my husband and I took him to Great Adventure. Narmer was able to ride many roller coasters with his father and also participate in the Safari adventure, which I highly recommend. Considering that it is in Jackson, New Jersey, the Safari was an exhilarating and interactive experience. In a Safari vehicle, we explored 350-acre preserve with over 1,200 animals from six continents including elephants, rhinos, tigers, giraffe, and lions.
We literally closed down the park at 10:00 p.m. and returned tired from a fun-filled day.
P.S.-- The lines are very long. We purchased Flash Passes (Platinum) in order to avoid long lines. It is expensive, no doubt; however, time is money and our purchase was worth it. Our wait on lines were less than 10 minutes, and we were able to ride each ride (offered) twice...Wow...It is worth it!!
So, in summary, we are now planning his next birthday (9th) August 8, 2014....So it begins...more to come...

For buyers, from sales off plan to marketing completed properties, our experienced sales team takes over. We are well-versed in selling new properties from the creation of a lifestyle image and the importance of specification and finish. Our aim is to maximise the return on your investment of money, time and materials.
For Developers, Builders and Sellers, we provide a full appraisal valuation and marketing support service to our developer clients which enables them to get the most out of their project.
We have been advising developer clients for over 30 years and our expertise at the design stage can add value to what you build by increasing desirability and satisfying demand.
Thirty years ago, Country Property sold a building plot to Heaton Homes and as part of the deal a new house was built for the land owner, one of our customers.
The association was born and ever since, Heaton Homes has trusted Country Property to sell all of their new-build executive style homes.
Since these early days technologies have improved, for example every Heaton Home is now externally finished with 'K Rend' through-pigment render and fitted with a Megaflo mains pressurised hot water system. Also, many changes to construction legislation have taken place but these are dealt with invisibly by Heaton Homes, ensuring the buyer gets a modern and well apportioned house guaranteed by an LABC 10 year warranty.
The quality of the workmanship has continually evolved to be consistently above average. Perhaps this is one of the reasons Heaton Homes hold their value so well on resale.
Country Property have also developed the way they assist buyers, guiding them through the potential challenges of buying a new build property from plan – such as any room alterations, ensuring floor coverings and tiling are to the new owner's exact specification and all in an achievable timescale.
For Heaton Homes, we aim to exceed expectations to make sure the buyer gets the most from their new home, not just until the point of sale, but right up until the move in date and thereafter.
It has all gone full circle because Country Property have marketed and sold that same house for the estate of the original customers, who had lived there for the rest of their lives. The house, apart from looking a little cosmetically tired, looks as good as the day it was built.

Domestic Relations Act proclaimed
Monday 21st December 2009 06:17 (Updated: Tuesday 22nd December 2009 09:21)
On December 19th, the Domestic Relations Act was proclaimed, changing the legal definition of spouse on PEI. This law changes many other pieces of legislation on PEI to include same sex and common law spouses.
With the proclaimation of the Domestic Relations Act, the definition of spouse has changed in Prince Edward Island.
The Domestic Relations Act amended the Family Law Act to redefine "spouse" as:
• two people who are legally married or
• two people who have lived in a conjugal (sexual) relationship for 3 years or
• two people who are living in a conjugal (sexual) relationship and are the natural or adoptive parents of a child or children
In our Family Law pamphlets, you may find text that talks about mothers and fathers and husbands and wives. Please ignore this language. Instead, the text should read "parents" and "spouses".
Please note that in provincial legislation concerning the division of property, a spouse is defined as a person who is legally married. Common-law spouses do not have the same rights as married couples in division of property.
CLIA will be revising Family Law pamphlets as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding.
