But can they truly leave their realities behind?

Desperate to see an unattainable love story for Holly come together, will our LA starlets succeed in providing a Hollywood ending before the dawn of Christmas Day?
Packed to the brim with festive cheer, this is the only story you'll need this Christmas...
Becca's thoughts
Firstly, thank you to the publishers Mira UK for providing me with a digital copy of The Perfect Christmas by Kate Forster in exchange for a fair and honest review.
The Perfect Christmas by Kate Forster is a short story, meaning that I read this within an hour. The thing about short stories is that I'm always left wanting more, wanting to know more about the characters, the situations, the lives... I don't think there has ever been a time where I've finished a short story and felt satisfied.
In The Perfect Christmas by Kate Forster, we meet Maggie and Zoe, both desperate to get away and leave LA behind for a few days. The fact that the girls decided on London had me excited, as London during Christmas is said to be a truly glorious sight. When the girls arrive and are met at their hotel by their very own personal concierge, I was made aware of Maggie's status. The hotel was luxurious, their room almost like that of a palace, and I was insanely jealous of the fact that they were able to order room service (something which I've always wanted to do)! Kate created a fabulous atmosphere during their time in London, it definitely felt Christmassy, with the lights and the shopping! The scene was really delivered to me, and I loved it.
The plot moved along very quickly, but not so quickly that I didn't have chance to enjoy it, which I did. The idea of having Holly, the concierge, involved in the plot was great, and it added that gorgeous spark of romance to the story, which we all adore at Christmas! There was a little bit of meddling on Maggie and Zoe's part, and of course best-friend banter, which was entertaining to say the least. The whole tone of the short story was jovial, festive and endlessly enjoyable.
Becca's Books is rating The Perfect Christmas by Kate Forster with four cupcakes! I did enjoy this book and the whole idea was great, however I still don't think I'm sold on the whole short story thing! It really doesn't work for me. I need more, more, more. I reckon if this had been made into a full-length novel, I would have bloody loved it! That's not to say that I didn't though, because I most definitely did. A cute, short, festive read that will have you pining for the lights and chaos of London in the throes of Christmas! Thank you Kate, and thank you Mira UK!

Hey People, I'm working with a client using Prestige and we just need to do a few final things. I've searched through the code for over a week but still no hints on how to achieve them.
Help on any of these would be greatly appreciated!
Solved! Go to the solution
Hi @bami-banzai
all points possible but for that need for that need to make many code changes may be you need to hire developer for that. because slider changes is not possible with just console.
1. Image carousel will need to be done with javascript. Not sure about Prestige as it's not a free theme, can't really look at how it's done. It'd probably be easier to set up a new slider (for myself anyway). I prefer slick: https://kenwheeler.github.io/slick/
2. Add to Basket on the featured products would also have to be done through an HTML form or javascript using the Shopify Ajax API: https://help.shopify.com/en/themes/development/getting-started/using-ajax-api
3. You'll have to locate the line of code in your cart.liquid file and just redesign accordingly.
4. I don't know about "matching products", but there's a recommended products API that "uses sales data and product descriptions to show a mix of products that are similar or often bought together". You can only use one product ID to access it, so I suppose you can pick an item from the cart at random:
I'm pretty familiar with all of this if you're looking to hire anyone, or if you just need help figuring any of it out. Feel free to send me a message on here, though you have to enable messaging in your profile.

First deal for Woodspeen Training
publication date: Jun 1, 2008
author/source: Ed Tranham
Woodspeen Training – the Plus market business in which ex-BPP CEO Charles Prior has a 22.3% stake – has completed its first acquisition in the UK vocational training sector. Woodspeen will pay up to a maximum of £2.762m for Futures Training Centres although the initial consideration is only £1.15m, comprising £650k cash, £100k convertible loan notes and 800,000 new shares at 50p per share.
Brighton-based Futures delivers computer-based vocational training courses to adults in the UK, almost exclusively under the government's LearnDirect and Train to Gain programmes. These programmes represented 95% of the company's revenues for the financial year ended 30 September 2007. Futures is currently negotiating the extension of its government-funded contracts which expire in August this year.
Woodspeen's stated aim is to create a substantial UK vocational training business principally by acquiring existing businesses that provide government-sponsored and privately funded vocational training. Government funding of Train to Gain is expected to rise to over £1bn a year by 2010-11. The Futures acquisition will reduce Woodspeen's recently raised cash pile of £2.75m.


text: Okay, let me start out by saying I picked this book because the cover caught my eye. I was looking for a fun and easy read. But this story bored me and was immensely frustrating. This book bored me because I just didn't like the whole idea of this book. The beginning started out with the fact that she thought she would never get a boyfriend; then it's love at first sight. The author wasn't realistic. Hildly was a character I liked; I didn't like Connor. Connor is to overproctive and greedy. He ges upset over little things with Hildy. Those are just some of he traits about Hidly and Connor.

Real MVP- Playing Card Redesign
I randomly came across the "farmer suicide" issue in India while browsing the internet. Anyways, this issue really hit me and I felt like creating something to spread awareness. In my opinion, farmers are the real MVPs in an agriculture-based country like India and ought to be respected. I used some mainstream traditional Indian colors and designed my own typeface for the text on the Cards. Keep reading / scrolling to find out more about the project

Ok, so I almost completely forgot about an event I was to attend yesterday, until a friend of mine reminded me. It was worth it.
Ok, so as some of you know, I'm a 'writer'. Meaning I have ideas, plan them out, and then kinda sorta pull them together in a semi-coherent way. At least, my 'detective' fiction. My strength is research. Crime related. I tie it together sometimes.
I don't have a ton of confidence in it-except for a short story I wrote that a prof said was the best they've seen in a long time-but yeah.
Anyways: Went to the event, listened to the woman read a powerful story from a book-she's legit, because it's for real published-and she gave the group a lot of great advice.
I talked to her a bit after, and she was genuinely interested in the fact that I do 'detective' stuff (It's more like amateur sleuths. I can add some hints in the comments if anyone asks), and she looked incredibly happy.
Out of all the people at the event, she said she would love to read my work personally. I gave her one of my awesome biz cards, and I really hope we stay in contact.
I almost cried, it was my first time talking to an author, for real. And it's not everyday they want to see what you wrote off the bat.
Off topic, but one time a famous film director called me a "good girl" as he signed my copy of a book he wrote. I said I liked one of his films. It was adorable.

Visit San Mateo County - San Francisquito Creek to San Mateo Creek
Continuing north from Santa Clara County up the San Francisco Peninsula, the exploratory expedition crossed into San Mateo county at San Francisquito creek, and camped at a dry watercourse about two miles beyond San Mateo Creek (Arroyo de San Mateo). They camped at the Arroyo on their way back from San Francisco, having killed, with bullets, a "monstrous" bear in the nearby hills. Moraga returned to San Mateo in June with the settlers on their way to San Francisco to found the Presidio and Mission.Download map
Driving Directions for Auto Route
Continuing on the route from Santa Clara County, while driving to San Mateo County north on the El Camino Real, turn right on Alma Street after University Ave., and follow Palo Alto Ave. to visit the Palo Alto redwood tree on the banks of the San Francisquito Creek. Returning to El Camino Real northbound, take Arroyo Court west in the City of San Mateo to see California Historical Landmark No. 47 and park commemorating campsite #96. To visit the Crystal Springs area, turn west on Crystal Springs Rd. and north or south on Skyline Blvd. Return to El Camino Real north and turn left in Burlingame on Ralston Ave. traveling one block to Heritage Park at Occidental Avenue. This is close to expedition campsite #94. Continue north on El Camino Real, and in Daly City, turn left (west) onto John Daly Blvd. To CA 1 north, and head to San Francisco County.
Hiking/Biking Ideas
The exploratory group surveyed the area around the San Andreas and Crystal Springs reservoirs. This area provided many of the timbers used to build the San Francisco Presidio and Mission. Hiking and biking trails are available via Cañada and Skyline Roads. These trails, as well as those of the San Francisco Bay Trail and the Coyote Point Recreation Area, offer opportunities to experience some of the bay's environment as the Anza expedition members may have seen it.
Points of Interest
Expedition Campsites
- Heritage Park - Expedition Camp #94
On its way up the peninsula, the exploratory expedition camped in Burlingame on March 26, 1776 at a dry watercourse about two miles beyond the Arroyo de San Mateo. They camped at San Mateo creek to the south on their way back. One block west of El Camino at Ralston Ave. is Heritage Park (coordinates: 37º 34' 26" N, 121º 21' 1.3" W). This is California Historic Landmark No. 48
- San Mateo Creek - Expedition Camp #96
Anza and a small group of soldiers camped here on the banks of the Arroyo de San Mateo (California Historic Landmark No. 47) on March 29, 1776 after exploring the peninsula and selecting the sites for the Mission and Presidio of San Francisco. It was also used from June 24-27, 1776 when Moraga brought priests, soldiers and their families north to found the Mission and Presidio of San Francisco.
- California Historic Landmark No. 47
- California Historic Landmark No. 48
- Coyote Point Recreation Area and Museum
This park (located at 1961 Coyote Point Dr.) provides a wide variety of opportunities including picnicking, swimming, bicycling, and jogging. At the Coyote Point Museum, visitors can observe, and listen to, live animals such as river otters and foxes that members of Anza's expedition may have seen.
- Crystal Springs Reservoir Trails
Gaspar de Portolá and his men camped nearby (in 1769), as did Captain Fernando de Rivera y Moncada (in 1774). It was Rivera's chaplain and diarist, Father Palou, that named the Cañada (canyon) Andrés, which today applies to a reservoir and the San Andreas Fault. On their way back from San Francisco in late March 29, 1776, Anza's men shot a huge bear nearby. Located in the scenic Crystal Springs Watershed, Sawyer Camp Trail (Skyline Blvd. & Crystal Springs Rd.) is one of the most popular trails in the county.
- El Palo Alto
Located on the San Francisquito creek (El Camino Real at Alma St.), this redwood tree's height was measured by Father Font using a graphometer. His method would be familiar to any student of geometry, trigonometry or surveying. The surrounding city takes its name from the famous tree.

Praxis Project Reflection
This semester, I have found myself pulled in many different directions. Between emergencies with friends, medical tests and physicians mumbling around me, I feel like this semester has flown by so quickly I haven't gotten more than a few glimpses of what I was trying to gain… like a hummingbird I see the beauty and remember it but I have to keep going over my notes and writings to really pull up the clear full image that I had in front of me. I changed my ideas on a project a few times over the weeks from blog post biographies on my favorite feminists to a newsletter with basic articles for on different aspects of feminism…. to my final and completed project of resources for Maine individuals who identify as LGBTQI.
This project came about when an individual finally discovered that her fear of her husband was also her children's fear… she discovered that he was hurting the children as well and they were terrified their father would kill her. She pretended to be 'normal' for two days while quietly making plans with friends and the moment her husband left for work on Monday with the only car, she walked out to meet a friend with her children and hasn't gone back. She was lucky and even though the struggle with the courts is all encompassing still, they are safe. Those two days were awful, with several people trying to find what resources there were out there for her. Domestic violence resources are supposed to be prolific – and they are- but out of almost 50 searches, over half had disconnected numbers, were closed, had lost funding, were full and unable to help others, or even had very strict limitations. That same week, some of the readings combined with this particular experience, caused me to push aside what I had done and begin again. I wanted to see what resources that there might be pulled up on google and spent two hours writing up every source I found for LGBTQI resources in Maine. My goal was to create a comprehensive list and hoped that I was able to fill a few pages of solid and available resources to pass along to the university.
I learned a few things from this project. The first was that as I had predicted, most of the resources that I had carefully listed were either no longer operational or if they were, I had no information to find any new information for them through follow up searches. However, as I just started cold calling different people and organizations, I not only found more resources but also found people who were collecting some of the same information I was looking for. I found individuals who not only were enthusiastic that I was willing to spend the time creating this resource and were willing to help me, but were hopeful they could have a copy of it when completed to help community members near them. I had conversations with one group who was saddened that I had found them by accident and gave them ideas on my search so that they could try and make their organization come up in search engines instead of my lucky referral from a lawyer's office. I also worked on it at work and as my project became locally known, I had a co-worker and a few patients quietly pull me aside and hand me a paper with an email or a phone number on it. I ended up having to leave resources off the list due to time constraints (I could probably spent another 25+ hours and have twice as many pages), but I feel really good about what I have. I was pleasantly surprised at how many resources there are around… even though so many parts of Maine are rural and far flung. I was also a bit surprised to find some organizations carefully not answering some of my questions and I realized that they didn't want to be a resource, but could not come right out and say it – due to their funding models, personal opinions, etc.… (I did leave those groups off the list.)
I discovered that in some ways, those who identify as lesbian, gay, transgender, bi-sexual or intersex may have extra difficulties in finding resources and support even in areas that are known for being 'liberal'. While there are so many resources, finding out about them was a significant amount of work and took quite a few resources to find. It appeared to me that just like my anonymous 'individual', when you are in a tough place, you really do need people with some social privilege and resources to help you find and access what you needed. I think this project was as successful as it could be with my limited time frame and the blinders of my own privilege- after all, I did choose what resources I left off the list due to time constraints… I have to wonder sometimes how things did or did not make the cut. I am hopeful that this assignment will have the forward removed by UMA and be copied and distributed wherever is appropriate. I am hopeful it will be useful to someone. Thank you.

Many students that catch wind of a lecture pertaining to either science or religion, or both in this case, would certainly start running in the opposite direction.
This past Monday evening Dr. Steven Gimbel, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Gettysburg College and author of Einstein's Jewish Science: Physics at the Intersection of Politics and Religion, stopped by Millersville to make his claim that religion has played a larger role in science than many of us think.
He began his lecture with a bit of background on Einstein, his life, and his theories on relativity. When Einstein published his theories he received unsurprising blowback from the Nazi's and their scientists, labeling it "Jewish science."
Gimbel went on to explain that almost everyone realizes that this phrase is used as a pejorative term in an attempt to discredit a Jewish intellectual in a society that is overtly prejudiced. Gimbel states "Einstein conceded that his theory was in fact "Jewish science" and even went as far to say that "you can tell Jews, not only by the way they look, but by their intellectual work."
Einstein of course was not siding with the Nazi's or approving of their ideals, so what was he really saying?
"Our first two major theories concerning gravity came from Isaac Newton and before that, René Descartes," Gimbel told the audience. Descartes was a devout Catholic but also an intellectual of his time. When attempting to explain gravity and how it worked in the universe he had to mold his theory around Catholic scientific views. Newton was no different, as Gimbel pointed out. He was a radical Protestant and had to stay true to his religion while trying to make sense of the world and how it works.
Gimbels question then became, "Was Einstein any different?" In all honesty he wasn't.
Dr. Gimbel gave a brief overview of Judaism for those unaware of its practices and methods. He placed sizable importance on looking at questions or problems from several different perspectives to help find a more suitable answer.
"If you get too stuck on your own perspective, you never know the whole truth," Gimbel said. Gimbel explained that it is this line of thought that aided Einstein in coming up with a radical theory of gravity, giving validity to the label "Jewish science."
Dr. Gimbel was able to relay his message to the audience that historically, religion and science have not been as polarized as many people think: they actually went hand in hand on major issues and discoveries. He was also able to tie in Einstein's theories into a message that stresses the importance of multiple perspective in everyday life.
He ended his lecture saying, "ideas come from people, people who have limited perspectives, but who have something to teach us – no matter when or what they were saying."

On the second annual Energy Efficiency Day (#EEDay2017), a broad network of partners across the U.S. joined together to promote the benefits of reducing energy waste: save money, lessen pollution, and create jobs. More than 200 companies, government agencies, cities, and others signed up as official supporters, and many more expressed their support through social media.
More than 30 cities, counties and states issued official proclamations recognizing October 5 as Energy Efficiency Day—as did the U.S. Senate. Social media engagement was up 68 percent from 2016!
The Internet lit up with enthusiasm for efficiency!
Government Support
To show their commitment to saving energy, official proclamations were issued by 6 states, 7 counties and 19 cities. A widely shared social media video highlighted many of the proclamations. In Asheville, NC, officials provided 300 LED light bulbs to support city staff participation in the light bulb challenge. Elected officials tweeted their support for #EEDay2017, including Boston Mayor Marty Walsh, Knoxville Mayor Madeline Rogero, City of Cincinnati and City of Orlando.
Business Support
Big businesses charged ahead on Twitter, with tweets from Walmart Today, PG&E, Nest, BPI Inc., Cree Inc.and others.
Organizational Support
Hawai'i Energy promoted proclamations from four Hawai'i mayors. The International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation celebrated #EEDay2017 by highlighting world energy savings in a widely shared tweet. Consumer Federation of America released a tip sheet of 10 Ways to Save Energy with a "big shout-out for Energy Efficiency Day." Many groups published blog posts, including NRDC, ACEEE, NEEP, EDF, E4TheFuture and Consumer Reports.
News Coverage
Great Day Washington DC invited a local group to share ways to save on home energy bills. KITV Island News covered the proclamations by 4 Hawai'i mayors, and KOHN2 in Honolulu ran a long TV segment about #EEDay2017 and interview with Hawai'i Energy Executive Director Brian Kealoha. Four States aired a story by KSN-TV featuring energy-saving tips and a regional program to help low-income residents save energy and money.
EE Day Continues the Humor and Creativity!
#EEDay2017 was a chance for many to have fun with photos, humor and even poetry—continuing a trend that now feels like a part of Energy Efficiency Day's culture. A few of our favorites include a Simpsons reference, an amazing cat, and Game of Thrones (a theme that started in 2016 and is too good to stop).
The fine folks at the Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance again led the way on creativity, this time with #EEMovies, leveraging pop-culture icons Ryan Gosling, Star Wars and E.T. to promote the wonders of energy efficiency.
#EEDay2017 showed what's possible when energy efficiency proponents join together! We're looking forward to an even more successful #EEDay2018.

Ruth Fletcher Gage and Christos Gage - October 29, 2015
Writers, Neflix's Daredevil, Law & Order: SVU
When: Thursday, October 29 - 5-6:15 p.m.
Where: CMB 2.102
Topics of discussion during this Q&A session included their perspectives on writing for different media including broadcast TV (Law & Order: SVU), streaming platforms (Netflix's Daredevil), video games (Captain America Super Soldier mobile game), comic books (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and beyond. They also discussed the challenges involved in telling transmedia stories and their recent experiences in publishing a creator-owned comic book, The Lion of Rora.
Ruth Fletcher Gage and Christos Gage Biographies
Christos Gage has a decade's worth of comic book credits, including Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Spider-Man, Avengers Academy and many more, as well as the original graphic novels Area 10 and Sunset. He has made the New York Times bestseller list three times, with Superior Spider-Man and his first two volumes of Buffy. He was writer and Associate Producer of the Larry Clark-directed film Teenage Caveman for HBO. His video game writing credits include Amazing Spider-Man 2, Captain America: Super Soldier and the Iron Man 3 and Captain America: Winter Soldier mobile games. He graduated Brown University and holds a Masters Degree in screenwriting from the American Film Institute.
Ruth Fletcher Gage has spent her life moving between the political and creative worlds. She graduated Phi Beta Kappa from UNC Chapel Hill as an IBM/Awalt Scholar in Directing. She attended Oxford University and worked at the Goodman Theater in Chicago with Tony, Pulitzer and Academy Award winning writers and directors like August Wilson and Steve Tesich. Her first work in film was for Michael Mann and Jon Landau on Last Of The Mohicans. Ruth then worked on the combined campaign for Governor James B. Hunt and Clinton/Gore, where she was a liaison to the Hollywood Women's Political Committee. She went on to work with the movies Richie Rich and Heavyweights through her job with the Secretary of Cultural Resources. She also served in offices of the NCDP, including National Committee Woman. Ruth earned an MFA from the American Film Institute, producing the Directing Workshop for Women and attaching Emmy Award winner Charles S. Dutton to her thesis screenplay. As Development Executive at Thunderbird Pictures, she developed the indie KLASH and, with Christos, sold A Place For Us with Dennis Hopper.
Since that time, Ruth and Christos have written as partners for television and film. Their work has been nominated for numerous awards, including Shine and Harvey awards. They've written movie screenplays for Universal, Sony and Warner Brothers, as well as such actors as George Clooney and Morgan Freeman. Their produced credits include the indie films The Breed and Paradox. In television, they've worked with award-winning actors like Michael Emerson, Viola Davis and Vincent D'Onofrio. Their credits include Numbers and Law & Order: Svu, where Dick Wolf called their episode "Mercy" his favorite of the series and "an incredible paradigm for where the show should be going". Most recently, they were brought in by Drew Goddard to be part of the inaugural writing staff of the acclaimed Marvel/Netflix television show Daredevil. Since its release, it has become Netflix's highest rated show, and their episode has been one of the most critically acclaimed by reviewers from the Los Angeles Times to Nerdist. The Gages' first collaboration on a graphic novel, The Lion Of Rora, was released by Oni Press this August.

The Senate Health and Human Services Committee approved a bill Wednesday that would require physicians to check for a fetal heartbeat before and abortion and prohibit abortions if a heartbeat is detected.
SB9 from Sen. Gerald Allen (R-Tuscaloosa) follows a laundry list of controversial bills filed by the Senator and defies previous Supreme Court rulings, which overturned similar legislation in other states. Allen's bill makes no exception for cases of rape or incest, only in the instance of mortal threat to the mother.
The bill further provides penalties for physicians who defy the law making the offense a Class C felony that carries a fine of $15,000 and up to 10 years in prison.
Supporters of the bill alleged that studies have shown fetuses are more developed than previously believed, with one suggesting that fetuses are capable of sustaining memories. Opponents suggested that, because heartbeats are detectable as early as five weeks into a pregnancy, the legislation would prohibit many women from attaining an abortion. Further, opponents questioned the state's ability to afford the lengthy legal battle that would likely ensue as a result of the bill's passage.
The committee passed the legislation with only Sen. William Beasley (D-Clayton) objecting.
A similar bill has been filed in the House of Representatives by Rep. Terri Collins (R-Decatur)
The committee also approved a bill from Rep. April Weaver (R-Brierfield) which would out law the already illegal practice of selling fetal tissue and parts. Again, Beasley was the only dissenting voice on the committee.
Both bills will now go before the full Senate.

This Kitchener bungalow was really something.
It had been purchased in 1961 and I honestly don't think the homeowners had done anything in 50 years except accumulate furniture. It was like walking onto the set of "The Wonder Years".
There was furniture EVERYWHERE. We counted 16 dining chairs (in addtion to the ones around the dining room table) scattered throughout the house, just in case, I suppose, a large number of guests dropped by unannounced.
We did a major decluttering, finished the wainscoting (which was only through part of the house), painted the entire place, rearranged all the artwork and changed a few lights.
What a difference! This home was brought into the new millenium while still retaining it's traditional charm and became a warm and inviting space.

The show's highlight came when a "very tired" Big Bird joined Seth Meyers during "Weekend Update" about "seven hours past his bed time." The iconic "Sesame Street" character learned he was mentioned in the debate after "getting a million tweets" but passed on making any statements on the election or Mitt Romney's vow to cut federal funding for PBS because he didn't want to "ruffle any political feathers." Needless to say, the eight-foot tall Big Bird towered over Meyers as they sat together behind the anchor desk.
You have to love Big Bird. Even when attacked, he turns the other cheek. He just wants to be your friend. A touching moment came in the closing credits when Bobby Moynihan got to hug Big Bird goodbye. You could see the 6 year old kid inside Bobby.

The Small Living Room Chronicles
What You Should Do to Find Out About Small Living Room Before You're Left Behind
You might believe you need to decorate your living room become the handy place. The living room is most likely the most decorated room in your home. It is designed for family and friends to gather and spend time. If you get a little living space, you're much better off sticking to a larger-sized sofa than you're cluttering up the room with a lot of small chairs. If you get a little living room and you're thinking about how to decorate it, do not despair. If you are in possession of a little living room which is full of furniture but still feels unfinished, ask yourself whether you could add a few lamps or some plants.
The True Meaning of Small Living Room
Dedicate space to the situations you do a good deal and you will be comfortable. If you get a little space to work with in your home refurbishment there are a few great ideas that may do the job well. Sooner or later, resting and regrouping alone in your very own private space is the thing that makes common spaces an amenity rather than a burden. There are a few great methods for managing the deficiency of space in your one-room apartment. Therefore, in the event the space isn't huge, it's way far better to continue to keep things open. Wall space is the greatest surface area of any room, so you wish to pay additional attention to the way you decorate it and use the space for a design tool.
You are going to want to call ahead to ensure there are rooms out there. Last, remember a number of the simple techniques that you can utilize to make certain that the coffee table you select actually enhances your room's decor. Hence, it's important to furnish the room by utilizing the ideal home furnishing essentials. Considerably more room is devoted to communal areas like living rooms and kitchens than to bedrooms. Rather than using your house as one major storage unit for several of the stuff you possess, do away with things frequently and earn more room for yourself. Small bed room One bedroom for a single person is made with full facilities and an extremely cozy space.
Whispered Small Living Room Secrets
With only one room for all your living requirements, it can be frustrating to realize your bed from your kitchen. When creating a design for your living space, remember the way the living room is going to be used. It is vital to make your living room an extraordinary since it is the very first impression of your dwelling. A casual living room won't have stiff furniture that offers no comfort when sitting. As you're planning for an eco-friendly living space, you might rather not cut down trees for the flooring.
If your room is narrow and long, the previous thing you would like to do is place a couch on the very long wall. A little room can appear functional and aesthetically pleasing. Small Living rooms can appear to be really tricky. however, it doesn't really have to be cramped with this kind of tiny spaces. Making your living room awe-inspiring by altering its layout is a remarkable strategy.

Original research commissioned by Inmarsat suggests that the maritime industry is more amenable to adopting analytic, management and operational tools applied through the Internet of Things (IoT) than many commentators have supposed.
The release of 'Industrial IoT: Maritime' coincides with Posidonia 2018 and is part of the Inmarsat Research Program 2018, which provides a cross-sectoral study on digitalization in the global supply chain and is due for publication on June 26th.
The full report, which is based on 750 interviews conducted by technology market research company Vanson Bourne, investigates use of, attitudes to and predictions for IoT-based solutions across the maritime, transport and logistics, energy, mining and agriculture sectors.
The 125 maritime respondents include owners from across the board in terms of fleet size, with owners from Greece making up the largest constituency (25), followed by Japan (20) and Germany (15). Ship types are spread across the container, tanker, bulker, gas, offshore and fishing vessel segments.
"This is probably the most detailed account of attitudes towards the IoT ever undertaken in the maritime industry, and its findings will surprise many," says Stein Oro, VP of Applications Sales, Inmarsat Maritime.
"Respondents suggest that their average expenditure per business on IoT-based solutions will amount to US$2.5 million over the next three years. They say that IoT-based solutions will attract a larger share of their IT budgets than any other 'next generation' technology, while early analysis of other segments places maritime ahead of energy, agriculture and mining."
Given the timing of the report, it is especially interesting to note that Greek owners envisage substantially smaller outlay on IoT-based solutions in the period ahead, with the average investment planned for the coming three years less than 10% of the average overall. The finding is in line with overall expectations from three quarters of respondents that they will 'fully deploy' IoT-based solutions within 18 months, while the equivalent figure for Greek respondents is 40%.
Drilling down into the report, owners show themselves as upholding the maritime industry's decade-long fixation with costs. While 51% of respondents say that revenue generation does not figure in their considerations, 75% say that they have realized, or expect to realize savings using the IoT. Route optimization is typical and is identified by 57% as in use or on trial.
Regulation is providing a separate prompt for adoption. With rules inexorably tightening on emissions from ships, 65% of respondents say they already use IoT-based solutions to monitor fuel consumption, rising to the 100% by 2023.
Also notable is the influential role played by marine insurers: cutting premiums is cited by 70% of respondents as one of the most important drivers for adoption. The finding is especially interesting, given that respondents are more concerned about data storage methods, poor network security and potential mishandling/misuse of data than they are of cyberattack, but only 25% are working on new IoT security policies.
Inmarsat is currently involved in a number of application and IoT projects in the maritime sector as part of its Certified Application Provider program working with companies such as Rolls-Royce and Samsung Heavy industries to provide energy management and remote monitoring applications.

Most teenagers dream about going to a fantastic college. For many, that dream is fading because they can't afford the rising tuition.
Young People Care Most About Access to Education
Nkemka Obineche, 16, is a junior in Pottstown, Pa.
November 4, 2012
I'd like to tell each candidate that I don't care what he did in the past or what the other candidate has done, because this is not about their pasts: it's about my future. I have plans for my future, plans that are getting more and more difficult because of the economy. The worsening economic status of the United States is making it harder for high school students to go to their school of choice, even if they are accepted.
Almost every teenager dreams about getting into a fantastic college, their "dream school," and for many of the teenagers in America, that dream is fading away because they can't afford the rising price of tuition. I'm 16 years old, and I go to boarding school, and so does my brother, but my dream of going to college is fading because my parents are often unsure of how they are going to afford two high school tuitions and also two college tuitions.
My future is becoming more dependent on an economic situation that I barely understand, and I'm not blaming past, present or future presidents. I just want it to be fixed so that I and other American teenagers can have a future, and my parents can stop worrying about whether or not they will be able to support two college kids in years to come.
If 13 were the legal voting age, the candidates would have to start talking not about what they have done for us, but about what they will do for us in years to come.

The air smells like smoke, my feet know where to go, and my soul feels at home. There is something about this place, something about Ghana that puts my humanity at peace when I am here. I do not feel threatened or misunderstood. Here, I can be. Here, my spirit flys free. My coiled hair is normal. My skin, while light- is still alright. Customs different, but similar, it is clear that I am a descendant, distant relative of the life that exists here.

Four Reasons to Try Olay Regenerist Whip
Thanks to Olay for sponsoring this post! All thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.
It's no secret how much I love skincare. It's become a big part of my self-care routine. Starting and ending the day with my skincare routine keeps me on track and feeling good. Lately I've incorporated the new Olay Regenerist Whip Face Moisturizer into my morning routine. Here are four reasons why I'm digging it!
1. #FeelTheWhipThe whipped texture feels like a hybrid between a cream and gel moisturizer, making it lightweight with a cooling effect. It's so light that it effortlessly melts and absorbs into skin. There's no time wasted waiting for it to dry. As soon as it's on, you immediately have extra time to get stuff done and/or spend more time playing with makeup. :) It's pairing nicely with my other skincare products, too. Applying it last in my routine helps lock in facial mists, oils, and serums.
2. Prime TimeOlay Regenerist Whip is a great primer for skin before makeup. It's oil-free, non-greasy, and non-pore clogging a.k.a. all the benefits you want to prep skin for makeup. It leaves a soft matte and velvety smooth finish that lasts. The oil-free and matte properties help makeup set and stay put. Try using it as a primer before foundation to create a smooth base for any natural or full glam makeup look.
3. Anti-Aging BenefitsRegenerist Whip has the same awesome anti-aging benefits as Regenerist Cream. The Amino-Peptides Complex II regenerates skin cells to improve elasticity and firmness. It is also infused with vitamins to help diminish the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
4. Won't Break the BankOlay Regenerist Whip is a luxurious moisturizer without the luxe price tag. It retails for less than thirty dollars (!) and it's accessible at many retailers. Click here to get Olay Regenerist Whip at Walmart!
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Olay. The opinions and text are all mine.
