A seven day pill box is a good organizer for storing your earrings.
By Betty
I made my earrings easier to see by putting them on plastic canvas and displaying in a cabinet that once was used for displaying thimbles or miniatures that I purchased for $2 from the thrift store. Now that I see what I have, I wear them more often.
Approximate Time: 2 days or less

Can't find one of your favorite earrings in your jewelry box? Keep them easily paired and organized by looping them through the holes of buttons. This works with hanging earrings and studs. It's also an easy way to keep your earrings stored when traveling.
By Momof1 from Wilkesboro, NC
A craft organizer makes an excellent holder for your earrings. I have four that I keep in my bathroom and take earrings off before I remove makeup at night. Works great!
I found one way to organize my earrings. I have several necklace and earring sets. The necklaces in these sets have "extensions" or extra pieces of chain on them that allow you to fasten them in different places to make the necklace different lengths when wearing them.
I often see questions on how to display or organize your earrings. When I have a chain, I often string it from one push pin to another and hang the hook kind from them.
Years ago, I bought a lovely crocheted tank top from a local thrift store (possibly on half-price day!); I hung it on a pretty wooden hanger, in my bathroom, and used it for holding all my earrings.
I use a 1 inch wide grosgrain ribbon. Choose a color you like, and tie a knot in each ends to keep the ends from fraying; or hem the ends if you're feeling flush on time and want a neater look.
You can keep pierced earrings on spare buttons to sort them and keep them from getting all mixed up in the jewelry box. Just put the earrings in one of the two buttonholes, and they will not come loose.
Egg cartons are great for organizing your earrings. I use them in a top drawer and also in one of those plastic drawers that you can purchase from a K-Mart, Walmart or Dollar Store.
I have lots of earring and necklaces that match, so I was always rummaging for the right ones. I decide to put the posts of my earrings into a chain link on the matching necklace and then put the backs on the earrings. No more hunting for matching jewelry!
Do you have a hard time keeping up with earrings? Here's a thought. I bought 4 plastic ice cube trays. In each of the cube spaces I put a single pair of earrings. They stack easily and you can see 12 at once and find the pair you are looking for in a jiffy.
I love earrings so I have a lot. I was constantly having to go through so many each time I chose an outfit. I organized them in a divided box made for that purpose, I sorted by color.
Ask a QuestionHere are the questions asked by community members. Read on to see the answers provided by the ThriftyFun community or ask a new question.
I have more than 200 pairs of earrings, and my collection is forever growing.
I bought these display things from eBay that hold 36 pairs each, but I've run out of room and storing those is a problem on its own. Another problem is that they're horrible for storing dangle earrings. I tried using a wooden picture frame and backing it with window screen, and that works for dangle earrings, but I'm not happy with it. I'm looking for a cute way to store/display all of my earrings without having them separated between 6 different displays. I've seen a lot of ideas on here, but they're more suited for someone with a smaller collection.
Sorry if this is the wrong site, but I saw a big thread about this topic while searching on google.
There are several simple, cute, and easy to make ideas for storing and showing off your earrings.
I would suggest looking on Pinterest and checking out earring displays. They have some very cute ones on there and a lot of great ideas too.
I make my earring holders out of recycled bits and hang them on the wall. Check it out here:
I have lots and lots of earrings. I have some that loop in, others that have backings. I want to create something to "display" them so that I can 1. find the pairs easier, 2. see all of them for choosing a pairs, and 3. keep the pairs together. I know that I have seen them over the years in various home magazines, and of course, now that I need one I can't find any pattern to use. Thank you so much.

I used to make earring organizers for my friends out of a sheet of plastic canvas, one ring of an embroidery hoop (8" or 10" is a good size), small wood plaque (found in the unfinished wood section at the craft store) and odds & ends of lace, ribbon, flowers, buttons, beads, etc.
first, drill a small hole in the center of the plaque and one in the side of the hoop. Hot glue the hoop to the plastic canvas and trim extra off around the edge. Decorate hoop with lace, etc then attach the hoop to the plaque with a small wood screw so it stands up like a picture frame.
These work best if not put in a hot sunny window, or other hot place, due to the hot glue.
The second type of holder is for people who like to decorate their walls with jewelry as art.
First, take a crocheted runner and fold one end over a hanger and stitch together along the edge. Then fill with all the earrings you want, arranging them so they are pleasing to the eye and hang on the wall, door, closet or whereever you like.
both types of earring holders work with post or hook type earrings. the plastic canvas would have to have some slits made if using for clip-ons.
Burlap or cross stitch fabric in a nice wooden embroidery hoop hung on the wall works nicely. I take wide grosgrain ribbon and put it at the top to hang down the front, and can put post or clip earrings into the ribbon. The fishhook style earrings just go through the fabric.
Another way is to find a small fake tree - no leaves, just branches - like the tiny white ones used for Christmas tabletop displays or Easter Trees- and hang them on the branches. You can tie on ribbons for the post earrings. You can make one of your own "trees" by bundling and wrapping copper wire, or with floral tape around wire.
What works wonderfully is a chinese calendar. You know the ones...they are rectangular and can be purchased anywhere.
the earrings hand right through the slats and it looks really cute.
I made mine out of an old picture frame and some window screen. Cut screen larger than the frame and with a staple gun ( kids use this step with supervision) staple one side at a time pulling tightly. I then screwed mini eye hooks in the top corners and hung it with an old fake silver necklace. I believe in recycling!!!
Plastic canvas in a frame
or for a LARGE collection or earring a fireplace screen
I use the screen to display my wares at craft shows
Here is how I made mine: Its a coat hanger covered with ribbon, bent and hot glued into a small jar of pennies and onto a small old plate. I painted the jar and the hot glue with black nail polish lol.
I needed something too, so I took a piece of fabric about 10 x 13 inches . I folded the top over 3/4 inch and hemmed. Cut strips of heavy clear plastic 1 1/2" by 10 ". Sewed them onto the fabric across the bottom of the plastic. Added more strips until it was full, then sewed up the sides, and sewed top to bottom every 1 1/2 inch.
Place a piece of doweling or twig through the hem at the top. Leave it too long so you can add cord to each end for hanging on a picture holder or nail and hang chains and necklaces on the ends.
I got a box of candy where the plastic liner was molded in squares -- 8 rows each with 8 columns, for a total of 64 compartments. I kept the plastic liner, put it in a drawer of my jewelry armoire, and keep my hoops and certain other earrings in the spaces. When I open a drawer, I can see the earrings in a glance. Works great.
What is a good way to organize earrings?
By Sheila from Baltimore, MD
ThriftyFun is one of the longest running frugal living communities on the Internet. These are archives of older discussions.
I have pierced earrings of various sizes and shapes. I keep my jewelry in a large jewelry armoire however, there's no good way to keep up with all of the sets of earrings. I've tried putting them in a small crystal heart with a lid, but they still get scattered within it. Does anyone have any ideas for keeping them organized in my armoire?
Tammy from SC
Would a length of grosgrain ribbon work? Cut it the length you need and hang it from a rod in your jewelry box and stick the pierced earring through and put in the post,it comes in different widths too. (12/20/2006)

This is what my mother did. I've only seen one of a kind. Because she remodeled her kitchen wall, which was a common wall with a bedroom closet, it closed the closet off. By leaving the closet door on the wall, when it opened, there was just a little space. Mom took a big frame, and stapled a piece of plastic square mesh, the kind you work with needle and yarn, on to the frame. Then she put used a couple of small hinges to put the frame on the inside of the door. Then with a small piece of Velcro, on the other side of the frame, to hold it to the door. All she had to do was to swing open the frame and put her earrings on or off. On the wall side, she made a pouch made out of material and hot glued it on the wall to put her broaches and pins in. She also took some small cup hooks and put them on the wall to hold her necklaces. She bragged about her Jewelry closet for many years and it was very pretty.

I love earrings and own more than 50 pairs. My problem with commercially available earring holders was that they didn't really account for the fact that most of my earrings are *very* long and dangly. One earring would cover the holes needed for 5 others! I now use one of those black or silver mesh desk organizers that are available at any Staples. Hundreds of holes, easily customizable to your specific needs! I lived in a casual (dorm room) environment, so I hung mine on the wall, like a picture frame. It was very pretty. =) (12/20/2006)

How about a ice cube tray, some now even come with covers (12/21/2006)

I recently made chocolate covered pretzels and I saved the package the chocolate bark came in. It was individually packaged in a tray which is good for storing so many things. (12/21/2006)
By suzanne
I bought round containers that fit together in a tube shape. I put one set of earrings in each one and screw it onto the next container. nice and neat. I bought them at the dollar store. Also good for storing safety pins, buttons etc.
By Susan from Hamilton
I, too, use clear plastic boxes for fishing lures, nuts and bolts, etc. Thing about using these clear plastic boxes, you see at a glance just what you're looking for. They come in all kinds of size and configurations. I use them earrings, rings, bracelets and some necklaces. I don't know what I'd do without them. They work perfect. I got mine at a bis sporting goods outlet and some at Walmart.
By AMANDA
I was needing a place to hang my earrings, and I never did like jewelry boxes. Anyways, I had bought a picture frame, took out the display picture and left just the glass and the backing on. Around the border put push pins all along the edge. Bought fishnet stockings and stretch it tight across the frame, hooking on to each push pin. I Cut the fishnets for the excess. And there you have a fashion inspired, hippy looking earring holder. (06/24/2007)
By shaw
Best idea is to go to a fabric store. Get a piece you like (something thick). Then get some string and makes 5 or 6 rows of string across the fabric. Sew it on the fabric and sew little dividers in between so the pairs of earrings don't slide into each other. Now nail to the wall and enjoy the fabulous selection every morning! (10/18/2007)
By Navi
I am having BAD earring problems, you know, organizing and things. I asked my mom what I should do, and after a while she remembered she and some little messed sided boxes, that have magnets on the bottom. She got them from the dollar store. They aren't the best for danglies but you can see inside them, and they have a clear plastic lid. Hope you can find a way to organize! Have fun! (11/10/2007)

I used a few thumb tacks and tacked an old Victorian doily on the bathroom wall, and hung my earrings on it. (05/24/2008)
By LINDA
I use a wire CD rack that I hung inside my closet door for hook earrings. Works great! For post earrings, I purchased a plastic earring organizer that can fold up to put in a drawer or stand for display. The organizer has four panels that are hinged together and holds 100 pairs of stud earrings. I believe I purchased online at Carol Wright Gifts. (06/27/2008)
By Kelly
"I used a few thumb tacks and tacked an old Victorian doily on the bathroom wall, and hung my earrings on it."
I tried this and it worked out well. I picked a large crochet doily and spray painted it lime green. (08/11/2008)
By Danica
I know it's a little silly, but I have a plush dog that I keep my earrings on. It has long ears for the post type ones, and pairs are right next to each other. The ones that dangle fit on the dog's "collar". Kind of cute and it works very well! :) (11/24/2008)
By Stacey
If you have a Bed,Bath and Beyond store they have trays of different sizes that are kind of a maroon color and they stack on top of each other. There are different ones that have small slots for earrings and larger spaces for bracelets,etc. I can't remember the brand name but you can ask them. (12/09/2008)
I use an ice cube tray (one that makes small ice cubes) to store my earrings. It works great, keeps each pair separate and it easy to grab and go.
By Jane
Take a wooden picture frame and staple screen door wire to the back. Hang the frame on a wall, and hang your pierced earrings on it. (06/06/2009)
By Mary C.
Plastic ice cube trays make great organizers for rings and earrings. I have mine sorted into them and have them in one of the small plastic storage bins with shallow drawers.

Quick Cash Flow Analysis for Construction Companies
Cash flow is the lifeblood of your construction business. Watch this video to learn how you can quickly get the information you need to stay on top of your cash flow with Sage 300 Construction & Real Estate Excel-Based Reporting.
Healthy cash flow is like oxygen to a company, and staying on top of changes to your cash flow trend can help you make corrections before trends turn into problems. With a Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate Excel based report, we can get a big picture view of the overall cash flow trend from jobs over the past 12 months. The overall trend is made up of the individual contributions from each job month to month. Trends in the cash flow for individual jobs or groups of jobs may identify billing issues, collection issues, or spending issues that with little analysis can be identified and addressed. This provides us with a 12 month window showing how our jobs have been affecting the company's cash flow each month. By filtering the data a little further, we can see the same trend analysis for a specific job, a specific customer, or a specific project manager.
Identifying the specific causes for increases or decreases requires quick access to live data. Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate Excel based reporting enables us to drill down into a specific value to see the supporting information. The amount by which the job increased or decreased cash is broken down by types of cash receipts and disbursements. By observing cash receipts we can quickly confirm that payments are being received from the customer on a timely basis. By drilling into disbursements we can review the usage of company credit cards or burden incurred from payroll. Ultimately, a review of this information may help in decision making processes pertaining to things like billing processes, payment collection, usage of company credit cards, costs not associated with sub-contracts or purchase orders, or the use of overtime.

LIRR president Patrick Nowakowski still rides learning curve after year on the job
LIRR president Patrick Nowakowski, in his second year on the job, said he wants to lobby for billions in spending on railroad infrastructure, improve declining on-time performance and push ahead on technological innovations for riders such as mobile ticketing.
To accomplish those goals, Nowakowski said he will continue to approach his job with the eyes, and touch, of an engineer: zeroing in on a trouble spot, taking it apart and putting it back together the right way.
"I try to get things done. I'm an engineer. . . . I try to build things that last," Nowakowski, 61, said in an interview in his Jamaica office. "I'm not a person who believes in flimflam half-solutions, or any of that kind of stuff. If it's going to work, it's going to work over the long haul."
That strategy has not always yielded successful results for Nowakowski.
He stumbled when he proposed installing cup holders on trains to reduce slip-and-fall incidents -- acknowledging after building a mock-up on plywood that it may hinder more than help riders.
Nowakowski's approach may have at times alienated some, including the LIRR Commuter Council, which has raised concerns over the past year about being left out of decisions affecting customers. In a statement, council chairman Mark Epstein said his group "will always seek to speak out for the riders on both small and large issues and to present the unique perspective of daily riders to LIRR management."
"We look forward to continuing to meet and work with Mr. Nowakowski and the LIRR in improving the commuters' experience," Epstein said.
Nowakowski said that while he values input from riders' advocates, "I don't need them to tell me how to run the company."
He also has been far less visible to Long Island Rail Road riders than his predecessor Helena Williams, who held the post for seven years. While praising Nowakowski's style, MTA Board member Mitchell Pally said the LIRR president needs to do more in his second year to connect Long Island commuters and decision-makers.
"I think he needs to get out more in front of the public," said Pally, who was a close ally of Williams. "They need to see him more, so they can have confidence in the person in charge."
Belmont service overhaul
Nowakowski spearheaded a $4 million overhaul of the LIRR's Belmont service after the railroad was overwhelmed by crowds at last year's Triple Crown race; he got rid of decades-old on-time performance standards and replaced them with those he believes are more realistic; and he successfully pushed for video cameras on trains, in part to address crime and injury claims on rail cars.
Nowakowski acknowledged he's still riding the LIRR learning curve.
"It's a big railroad. There are too many areas that I don't know as well as I'd like to," Nowakowski said. "I've done my best to try to fit in and be respectful of the organization. I think the worst thing an outsider can do is come in and think, 'I know it all and you've been doing it wrong for the 180 years you've been in business.' "
Nowakowski's year was marked by personal tragedy. His wife of 37 years, Janet, died unexpectedly in March. He was back on the job less than a month later, admittedly still "in a fog," but committed to seeing through his initiatives.
"I think it shows what kind of guy he is," said Kevin Law, president of the Long Island Association, the region's largest business group. "I think Pat is a professional. He's not flashy. And he is also a gentleman, and does his job well and quietly."
In his second year running the nation's largest railroad, which carried almost 86 million riders in 2014, Nowakowski has several priorities, including:
Building support for the MTA's five-year capital program, which includes $3.1 billion in funding for LIRR projects, such as completion of the project to install a second track between Farmingdale and Ronkonkoma. He's already sold the plan to many Long Island business and civic groups and other leaders, and said he'll keep doing so. If the program is scaled down in size, Nowakowski will also have to choose which projects to cut, and which to keep. "The priority has to be keeping the existing stuff in a state of good repair," he said.
Tightening up on-time performance, which fell for the third straight year in 2014 to 92 percent from 93.5 percent in 2013. Nowakowski, who recently ordered up a list of the 20 most consistently late trains, said it will require a "train-by-train" approach. "When Charlie drives a train, it's late every day. The same train, when it's operated by Tom, is always on time. Well, maybe Charlie's the problem."
Moving forward -- but not rushing -- technological innovations, including mobile ticketing. "I understand that need. . . . But at the same time -- and this is where the engineer will come out -- I believe we need to approach it the right way," Nowakowski said. "The last thing I want is a black eye. Here's this great new thing and the next thing I know I've got a thousand customer letters complaining because they got in a fight with their conductor."
Metropolitan Transportation Authority chairman Thomas Prendergast, who picked Nowakowski to head the railroad in May 2014, said he's "very, very happy" with the job Nowakowski has done -- even when he's publicly supported expensive and politically polarizing projects, such as electrifying portions of LIRR's diesel territory or building a third track along the LIRR's Main Line in Nassau County.
"What I'm really refreshed about him on is that he doesn't go by what somebody tells him, and then assumes that position," Prendergast said. "I could tell him something. I think he files it away and keeps track of it, but he wants to make his own assessment based on his own examination of the issues."
Prendergast acknowledged that, in front of some audiences, Nowakowski may appear a little less polished than Williams -- a former deputy Nassau County executive known for carefully choosing her words when speaking in public. Nowakowski, in contrast, is not above using colorful language to describe an operational problem.
Some others have appreciated Nowakowski's blue-collar sensibilities.
"It's not all about him getting out in front of the cameras. It's about the nuts and bolts, getting the job done," said Anthony Simon, general chairman of the LIRR's largest union, the Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers Union, which was embroiled in a contract dispute with the MTA when Nowakowski took office.
Avoided micromanaging
Since then, Simon said Nowakowski has avoided micromanaging his labor force, "letting those men and women who are actually out there . . . do the job."
Nowakowski spent most of his 40-year transit career in the Philadelphia and Washington areas, including a stint as executive director of the project to link by rail Washington Dulles International Airport with the capital.
He said that he "never professed to be a professional politician," but has worked hard on getting to know the people and the issues that drive Long Island. To help him navigate Long Island's politics, former Chief Deputy Suffolk County Executive Edward Dumas in December was hired to be LIRR vice president for market development and public affairs.
"I do fully understand that a big part of this job is being the public face and being out there," Nowakowski said. "If there's any discomfort, it's that I originally didn't know anybody. I, obviously, know a bunch of people now."
Projects moving ahead
Jan Burman, president of the Association for a Better Long Island, another business group, said Nowakowski has earned "solid marks" for his efforts so far, including in keeping the second track project on schedule, moving ahead with plans for a new rail terminal in Ronkonkoma, and "navigating the difficult political environment" surrounding the MTA's capital plan, which is likely to remain largely unfunded nearing the end of the state's legislative session.
"How Pat will deal with that going forward will certainly test him in the weeks to come," Burman said.
Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone said when Nowakowski replaced Williams, he was "very concerned about what this meant for Long Island."
"From the outset, Pat made a commitment that he was going to be very engaged and would follow through on the projects that were happening and that he would continue to work with us on the priorities that we have in the region," Bellone said. "Of course, you never know until you actually start working together. But, what I've found is that he was more than true to his word."
Prendergast similarly endorsed Nowakowski's efforts at forging alliances in Nassau and Suffolk. He said the best example of Nowakowski's leadership could be seen in his most visible initiative to date -- resolving long-lingering infrastructure and planning problems at Belmont Park.
Nowakowski was in office less than a month when a crush of 30,000 fans at the Belmont Stakes pushed the LIRR to its limit, resulting in dangerous crowds and waits of more than three hours for trains.
"You saw, from that point going forward, somebody with a lot of operational experience and a lot of operational savvy just take the bull by the horns and say, 'This is what we need to do,' " Prendergast said.
Nowakowski started a $4 million project to revamp the dilapidated station with new platforms, stairs and ramps, and reconfigured service to allow a more steady stream of trains into and out of the station.
He defended his decision to not negotiate further for the New York Racing Association to pick up part of the project's cost.
"At some point in time, you say, 'I can't take the risk that we're going to fall on our face again next year,' " he said. "I need to do what needs to be done."
When fans packed Belmont Park to see American Pharoah race for the Triple Crown this month, the LIRR handled 30,000 exiting fans with relative ease -- clearing most of them out in an hour and a half.
Sitting on a nearly empty train car leaving the station that evening, Nowakowski said he reflected on his day, if not his year.
"It worked," he said. "I sat back there and felt like -- what do they say on the 'A-Team'? I love it when a plan comes together."

SOLANA BEACH–"Hold On Loosely" and "Caught Up in You," the classic country rock vibes from 38 Special are back and they're swinging through The Belly Up in Solana Beach on October 3rd. Yup, it's right around the corner! You can't deny when you hear "Hold On Loosely" you immediately start singing along. It's one of those songs that for me makes me want to roll down my windows and drive down a beautiful country road–and smile. It just gives me, personally, a good-happy feeling. Perhaps, because it brings me back to a time in my life when I had no problems. At 35, I am well aware life ain't perfect and drama is sure to fill in the holes. So to hear songs, like the ones these guys have recorded, that were popular when I was kid and I remember hearing on the radio–simply takes me back to that time and place; a problem free existence. And let me tell you, that sure beats the cost of therapy! For you newer country music fans, I'd describe this band as Montgomery Gentry mixed with classic rock so the appeal is widespread. You get a good mix with these guys, and what's not to love about a little throwback music?!
The group recently released Live from Texas, a new cd with their rock hits also including "Back Where You Belong" and "Fantasy Girl."
Vocalist/Guitarist Don Barnes says it's all about maintaining the intensity that they deliver in their live shows. "We never wanted to be one of those groups that had gotten a little soft or complacent over the years. We've always said that we don't slack up, we stack up."
The band has been touring since 1976, and they keep plugging away. They've opened for Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, and REO Speedwagon.
I don't know about you, but a cold brew on a beautiful fall San Diego night with these guys sounds just like the perfect recipe for happiness.
Hope to see you there!

text: I always encourage people who view my art to also touch it! Contrary to everything we have been taught in museums and stores, touching these textural pieces of work adds to the experience! These durable works of art should ideally be hung where the temperature is 75 degrees or less with a relative humidity of 45 degrees. They hold up extremely well in heat so long as they are not direct sunlight or in a sunny window area. Because they are wax, if they ever dull, as all paintings do, take a pair of panty hose or a soft non-textured cloth and polish them for a brilliant shine!

2018 was a pretty big year for us. We completed the second part of our house renovation - a kitchen / diner extension, garden landscape and driveway installation - and welcomed our second child into the world, baby Jake. Throw a toddler into the mix - our son Josh - and you've got a pretty exhausting but exciting 12 months!
As with most building projects, the process had its ups and downs. My last trimester was particularly challenging as we were in full building site mode during England's hottest ever summer (what timing!).
Here's the full story…
We'd left a sun room and office at the back of our house completely untouched and locked away until spring, ready to embark on our first ground floor extension project. This was the first time we'd been able to completely design the structure, layout and fittings of a room to suit our needs and we were EXTREMELY excited!
I fell pregnant with baby no.2 - Jake - sooner than expected, in January 2018. The next month, our builders pulled out due to the snowy weather (the 'Beast from the East') pushing back their other projects. Had Jake not been arriving in September that year, we could have been a bit more flexible with the deadline and still worked with them (we really liked their work). But we had no choice but to find a builder elsewhere at short notice. Luckily we did and the project kicked off in April as planned.
In a nutshell, our builders kicked off the project brilliantly. We were so excited and felt like everything was going to be all wrapped up by June. Sadly this wasn't the case - there were a lot of delays and I started to have visions of breastfeeding in a building site-! Long story short, we parted ways with our builder and my husband L took on a lot of the labour, while roping in local experts to finish odd jobs. During this time, we learnt a lot about the process and how much of the work we could actually complete ourselves, rather than relying solely on one builder.
The glass went in two days before Jake was born-! But luckily the rest of the room was complete so we had a working, warm kitchen that was ready for our newborn, as well as 21-month-old Josh.
Our 1930s house had already had some extension work completed on it over the years. For us, we wanted to extend the ground floor into the garden to create some open plan living space, as we felt that's what the property lacked. As the house is on a hill, we also wanted to enjoy the view so added a patio with steps onto the back of the extension, leading into the garden.
The process took roughly five months to complete. (Builder delays that were out of our control meant it took longer than the predicted two!)
It was amazing to finally start styling the place!
If you have good organisation and budgeting skills and know a thing or two about construction, consider project managing an extension yourself and avoid hiring one builder to do the lot. We did this towards the end of the project and were so glad we did.
If you have a tight budget, consider going direct to an online kitchen retailer and hire a freelance kitchen designer to make your vision happen.
If you have an intricate floor, make sure you allow a fair amount of time for it to go down before your kitchen is installed.
Paint your kitchen walls before your kitchen is installed, otherwise it will take longer trying to paint around the cabinets and above the worktop (not necessarily the whole room just where the kitchen meets the wall).
Remember to consider outdoor lighting as well as indoor if you're doing work to the back of the house.
Also consider adding an outdoor tap to a rear extension to help with gardening etc.
Walk through every single detail. From where you're likely to use appliances in the kitchen for socket locations to how far your doors will come out to when open / what not to put there!
Don't be shy. If you're not sure your builder's done something right or you're questioning a decision you've made - discuss it. You have to live with it so speak up as there could be an easy solution at the time.
Consider lighting in all forms - spotlights, cabinet lighting, table lamps, floor lamps, etc. We added a neon sign to jazz things up a bit (and I'm always up for adding in some pink where I can!).
Create a shared note on your phone for a house to-do / to-check list. We found this really useful when reviewing the build in the evenings and trying to remember what to discuss with our builder the next day. It also gave us peace of mind when remembering something in the middle of the night!
Those are just a few things we learnt along the way (and things we learnt when renovating our previous house). Hope some of the info proves useful if you're starting an extension project.
Kitchen cabinets are Langton in-frame from www.kitchencollection.co.uk (grey cabinets are cashmere colour, island is charcoal).
We soured the brass handles from an Etsy seller called YesterHomeUK (make sure to buy some brass polish to keep them looking shiny! We made a stencil out of acetate to put around each handle when cleaning to avoid damaging the cabinets.

We share the newspaper. I have a friend who subscribes and I have her save her newspapers for me to read. I see her at church twice a week and she gives me a stack each time. I still get the news and coupons and we are both being green!
By Sherri from Rome, GA
To save yourself some money and also save some trees. Check online to see if you can receive your local newspaper online. We don't pay for a subscription to the local paper, which saves us over $100.00 per year, plus we don't have the hassle of throwing away nor having to recycle a newspaper either. If we want to save something from the paper, we can just print it out, or choose to purchase only that one issue. Although I find that plenty of people who do receive the daily paper will gladly give you their issues free after they are finished reading it. The easiest way to find your local paper online is to type the name of the paper, city and state in the search bar.
Ask a QuestionHere are the questions asked by community members. Read on to see the answers provided by the ThriftyFun community or ask a new question.
Do you still receive home newspaper delivery?
Yes, I get a daily newspaper delivered. It's wonderul, especially when the snow starts piling up or it's raining cats and dogs. It's always right in front of my door and I don't have to go and look for it
We receive Sunday papers in the middle of the night and go through the coupons marking the ones I want. Then if we want more papers we can get more for the good coupons. We also get a 7 day a week local paper, that has less coupons.

Sabine Gives Wireless Support to St. Paul's
St. Paul's United Methodist Church needed an audio system for a modern-style service with electric bands that wouldn't be visible to the traditional parishioners. As installer Les Stephenson of MusicMasters says, "St. Paul's is a traditional Methodist church that has a contemporary service with an electric band sandwiched in-between two traditional services. So we were faced with a situation where there was an 8:30 traditional Methodist service with pipe organ, choir, et cetera, and then at 9:45 there was a contemporary service with an electric band and 12 wireless systems onstage. That, plus the fact that the people attending the more traditional 8:30 and 11:00 services didn't want to see anything that has to do with the band in terms of speaker hangs or amps; they didn't want their sanctuary changed."
With no interference from TV or DTV because of the frequency it transmits on, MusicMasters chose Sabine's 2.4GHz wireless, 70 simultaneous channels from which to choose, onboard DSP including Sabine's FBX Feedback Exterminator® technology and Microphone SuperModeling for more sounds.
"St. Paul's is a very traditional, beautiful, mid-sized Southern Methodist church sanctuary," Stephenson continues, "and it's been preserved that way since it was built in the '60s and they didn't want it mucked up with a bunch of gear."
Creating a sound system that was essentially invisible to the naked eye was quite a challenge, but MusicMasters was up to the task. "We had to create a comprehensive wireless audio system so that the band could walk in there and everything would be wireless—their vocals, instruments, everything," says Stephenson. "So to save time, money and still have the control we needed, we chose Sabine 2. GHz wireless mic/instrument systems and the Sabine Navigator processor to control the speaker system.
"Using wireless eliminated cabling, plus it gave us more performance and setup flexibility," he continues. "We chose Sabine because their wireless sounds really good, plus the fact that the systems are engineered around a rechargeable battery, which eliminates the major issue of battery maintenance.
In terms of speakers, "they wouldn't allow a traditional speaker system to be installed because they didn't want a bunch of stuff hanging off the ceilings. It's sort of a domed-shape ceiling and they were not going to put anything up there that changed the lines of the ceiling. To solve that problem, we came up with a six-zone distributed system using small JBL custom speakers down each side of the sanctuary, which are all time-aligned using the Sabine Navigator. And there's a two-zone balcony fill system because the balcony is big and there's a front section and a second section that's almost like a stadium-seating situation with close to 100 to 150 church members sitting up there. Downstairs, there is room for about 400 at maximum capacity.
The audio system components for MusicMasters included two Yamaha 01V96 consoles, JBL speakers and monitors, Aviom monitoring and QSC amplification. The entire project took about three weeks because Stephenson and his team had to build a whole new wiring harness despite the fact that what they were installing was mostly a wireless system.

Upside Down, You're Turning Me!
Many yogis will say their biggest challenge in their physical practice is approaching inversions. If you are like many other practitioners, your inversions could use some work. Mike will share the basic mechanics of inversion postures. He will focus on safely helping you achieve these major inversions (headstand, forearm stand, handstand, shoulder stand). The use of props (if needed) will also be incorporated.
What you can expect in this workshop:
- We will discuss why inversions are an important part of the asana practice and why they are so beneficial.
- This workshop will consist of Pranayama (breathing exercises), Asana (postures), and Dhyana (meditation) along with getting familiar with Ashtanga Yoga (8 Limbs of Yoga).
- We will move through a shortened Dharma Yoga sequence to ignite the tapas (internal heat), thus getting the body and mind prepared for inversions.
- We will find out what works and what does not work for you, because everyone's body is structured differently.
- Beginners: We will dissect the ways to get you inverted without scaring the mind or the body.
- Intermediate Practitioners: We will find ways to get you away from the wall.
Appropriate for: All levels
- Duration: 2hrs
Ain't No Mountain High Enough

Ah yes, Subnautica, also know as less all get into the sea. Or more accurately an entire sea planets. This survival game finally came out of early access after 3 years the day before the stream and I had a lot of fun trying to not die and failing at least twice.
Damn it was close but we managed to finish the bridge. Of course as soon as we finish the bridge suddenly the mayor wants a bunch of cars but what ever here will always be more work to do. This game has me enraptured. I don't think I'll be escaping soon.

Jhr. Joan Röell (21 July 1844 – 13 July 1914) was a Dutch nobleman, lawyer and statesman.[1] He was a member of a prominent Dutch noble family which produced many public administrators, and politicians.
From 1894 to 1897 Röell headed the Dutch government as Prime Minister, (formally: chairman of the Council of Ministers) and Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Early life and education
Röell was born in Haarlem, to Herman Hendrik, Baron Röell (1806–1883), member (1842) and registrar (1843–1858) of the States of North Holland, King's Commissioner of Utrecht (1858–1860) and of North Holland (1860–1879), curator of the University of Utrecht (1859–1883), and his wife Elisabeth van de Poll (1808–1862).[2]
He attended a boarding school in Sassenheim, and later a gymnasium in Utrecht. From 1861 to 23 November 1866, he studied Roman and Contemporary Law at the University of Applied Sciences of Utrecht, after which he briefly worked as a lawyer.
Political career
As a former registrar of the States of South Holland, Röell was familiar with the intricacies of local and regional government and water management. In 1877, he was elected into the House of Representatives for the district of Utrecht. He was re-elected in 1881 and 1884, but lost his seat to Æneas, Baron Mackay in 1886. He became a member of the Senate for Zeeland until he won back his seat in the House from Mackay in 1888. He was re-elected again in 1891. In the House, he was concerned with various policy areas, including education, water management, health, constitutional amendment, suffrage, home affairs, Indian affairs and taxes.
After the 1894 general election, Röell became formateur, and formed a liberal cabinet in which he served as Minister of Foreign Affairs. He also became the chairman of the Council of Ministers, a position that would later be dubbed Prime Minister. In 1886, his cabinet greatly expanded suffrage, doubling the electorate.
In 1897, after finishing his term, he stood for election to the House of Representatives again, but was not elected, and returned to the Senate one year later. In 1901, Röell returned to House of Representatives for the district of Utrecht II. After his re-election in 1905, he served as President of the House of Representatives, until he lost his seat in 1909. After another stint in the Senate for North Holland, from 1910 to 1912, Röell was appointed Vice-President of the Council of State. Röell died on 13 July 1914 in The Hague, eight days before his 70th birthday, and was buried in the family vault in Leusden three days later.
Private life
Röell married Jonkvrouw Eritia Ena Romelia de Beaufort (1843 – 1910) in Utrecht on 10 September 1868. The couple remained childless.[3]

But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.

UK Men's Basketball
Calipari discusses walk-ons
University of Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari announced on his blog that he is considering offering a scholarship to walk-on Mark Krebs while reiterating his practice of rarely having walk-ons on his teams.
The UK coach did not mention three other walk-ons, Adam Delph, Dwight Perry and Matt Scherbenske.
Delph told the Courier-Journal he is leaving.
"It's Coach Cal's call, and he made it," Delph told the Louisville paper.
Delph said Calipari and his staff were "nothing but nice" in breaking the news, and said that they've offered to help him in his efforts to transfer.
On his Twitter page, Perry wrote, "Thanks to the whole big blue nation for the support over the past 3yrs. This has been a great experience that I will be forever greatful for."
Calipari explained his philosophy about walk-ons in a late afternoon post on his blog.
"In my 17 years of college coaching, I have very rarely had walk-ons and when I have it's usually been another student-athlete, who could help us in practice or game situations because of his size, speed or skill level," Calipari wrote. "I find my practices run at optimum performance when there are 12-13 players. Any more than that and we're not able to accomplish what I want in each practice."
Calipari went on to say, "In meeting with the most recent group of walk-ons, we let all of them know how much the UK family appreciated their hard work and dedication to Wildcat basketball."

The nation's leading missing children's organization has released a portrait of what Paul Fronczak, who was kidnapped from a Chicago hospital 49 years ago, might look like today.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children posted an "age progression" portrait this afternoon of what the infant Paul Fronczak would look like at age 49. The image, alongside a photograph of Fronczak taken at the hospital before the kidnapping, are posted on the Center's website, missingkids.com.
The search for baby Paul was thought to have ended some two years after the infant was taken from a Chicago hospital in 1964 by a woman posing as a nurse.
Parents Chester and Dora Fronczak thought their ordeal was over after authorities, using blood-typing and physical characteristics that were far less conclusive than modern DNA tests would have been, determined that an abandoned child found in New Jersey was likely their missing son. The couple raised the boy in south suburban Oak Lawn.
This summer, the 49-year-old Paul Fronczak they took in from New Jersey acted on his longstanding curiosity and asked his parents to submit DNA samples for comparison with his own. Tests showed that the boy they raised, who now lives in Nevada, could not have been their child. The FBI reopened the missing baby Paul case a few weeks later.
Anyone with information should contact the Center or the Chicago office of the FBI.

Did you know plants can help you sleep? Yep! NASA even did a big study on it. Just looking at plants can have a soothing effect and reduce blood pressure. They also release water vapor into the air and clean the air by removing pollutants and chemicals. Here are a few of our low-maintenance favorites.
Snake Plant (a.k.a. Mother-in-Law's Tongue)
We kind of want to meet the person who named this one (seriously…major BURN!). Joking aside, this stylish plant is pretty amazing. It emits oxygen at night while simultaneously absorbing some of the carbon dioxide that we produce when breathing. Snake Plants purify the air by removing common household toxins including benzene, trichloroethylene, and formaldehyde toxins.
Aloe Vera
In addition to being an amazing plant for soothing dry skin and burns, aloe vera acts just like the snake plant and emits oxygen into the air at night while removing carbon dioxide. Also, if you buy one aloe vera plant, you'll have aloe vera for life. It's basically the rabbit of the plant world and reproduces quickly.
Peace Lily
Preferring low light, this plant is an awesome option for a dark bedroom. Boasting lush green leaves and beautiful white flowers, this plant is a superstar air purifier. It filters out harmful benzene, trichloroethylene, and formaldehyde toxins. This beauty can also increase a room's humidity by up to 5%. Have allergies? Good news! Peace lilies suppress allergy-microbes. This hard-to-kill plant just needs to be watered once a week.
Golden Pothos
With marbled, heart-shaped leaves, this plant is an air-purifying giant. A workaholic's best friend, this plant needs but a few hours of sunlight in the morning and a light watering once a week. This fast-growing vine can grow several feet within a single month. It's also super easy to propagate. Simply snip off a 4-6 inch section making sure the section has at least four leaves. Put the section in a jar of water and place it in an area that gets plenty of indirect sunlight. Plant as soon as it starts to root.

Edinburgh's Mark Bennett is likely to be confirmed out until the New Year with the suspected hamstring rupture he suffered during the capital's club narrow loss at Ulster on Friday.
Head coach Richard Cockerill expects the Scotland centre to be diagnosed with a scan today and him to be out "for three to four months". Bennett missed almost all of 2017 with a knee injury suffered in the Calcutta Cup game that year and was only playing his 14th game for the club at the Kingspan Stadium.
"It's something quite significant, he is on crutches, and if it's what we suspect, then it is a veryh serious injury," said Cockerill.
"If it is what we think it is, it will be months. It is one of those things, thankfully nothing to do with his knees that have been a problem before. He got bent into a position past his flexibility in a clearout, nothing wrong with it, it was just purely bad luck."
Edinburgh have cover in James Johnstone, Chris Dean and Juan Pablo Socino for the position, so Cockerill is more concerned with Edinburgh adapting to the new-found respect they have been given by the opposition ahead of Friday's first home game against Connacht at BT Murrayfield.
"You've seen that in the opposition, Ospreys, full bore with their selection, Ulster full bore with their selection," he pointed out.
"Before Edinburgh was an easy target. But people will now put their best team out knowing that if they don't, they run the risk of getting turned over.
"We wanted respect, we've got it, now we have to deal with making sure we play better so that we deal with the consequences of teams taking us more seriously."
Last season Edinburgh won six of seven games when they and the opposition were separated by less than a converted try, and they've lost two such games already, he pointed out.
"You have to take the rough with the smooth and that's justg how it is," he continued. "The "plucky losers" bit I don't like and being the victim I don't like. I think the ref got his decision wrong at the end of the game (when he awarded Ulster a last-gasp penalty) but in the end we got what we deserved because ou have to control the key moments and we didn't.
"Ulster have had two penalties at the end of games to win and they've ridden their luck. We can't rely on official's decision in the 82nd minute going out way. We don't want to rely on luck, we have to make sure we do things better so we don't have to depend on a 50-50 decision going in our favour."
Despite the two defeats, Cockerill is happy with the progress of the team.
"Nothing's fixed in 14 or 15 months but I still think we're a better side now than this time last year and we're a better side now than the one that finished the season," he said.
"We've got to still keep a measured view on the expectations of where we're at. We've been to two tough places, we've got two bonus points, which is better than nothing.
"I would have been happier for us to win at the weekend, because I actually think we did enough whereas I don't think we deserved to win at Ospreys, even though we had the opportunity."
He doesn't believe that Connacht is a must-win game this early in the season.
"The three points we left behind in Ulster could be huge at the end of the season, but the table will look after itself," he said. ". I'm not going to put pressure on the team saying this week's a must-win, because I don't think it is.
"What I want is to get the same performance out the team that we got on Friday. If we do that we'll win."

Dick Tips losing was more than a tragedy, my friend. It was straight-up vote rigging.
Dick Tips losing was a tragedy
I'm here to defend Boats Botes, as well as the people voting for him. People have different opinions about what makes a great name- Aphrodite Bodycomb is a worthy elite 8 participant, but sometimes, it's best not to overthink it. Boats Botes makes me laugh every time I see it or say it, and silliness is a big part of why this thing exists in the first place. I also wanted Dick Tips to win last year for the same reason. Juvenile? Yes. Simple? Yes. Hilarious? Yes. I hope Boats wins the whole thing.
Every year there's a really basic name that picks up a huge groundswell of support: Chillie Poon, Taco Pope, and now this. None of them are actively bad and Botes Boats is quite funny in a really dumb sort of way, but they always go way further than they deserve to and beat out obviously much better names like Bodycomb.
I did not think Botes would get this much support. I grow more and more fond of BB every time I look at this. Where's this backlash? This has nothing to do with The Lonely Island or Boaty McBoatFace. Lemme break it down.
1. Lol someone's first name is Boats. This kind of absurdity made Cherries Waffles Tennis great.
2. Lol the first and last name sound exactly the same.
If Bodycomb loses my whole bracket is cooked. I had her going all the way :(
Boats Botes... Succinct, inexplicable, winner
So I guess this is the shitty name with a fraudulently-multi-voting cult following this year, huh? Aphrodite is the far superior name here.
This is so disappointing.
Ok, you boaty mcboat face people had your moment. Now would you please stop ruining LITERALLY EVERYTHING.

This is my 3rd blog post on visiting OpenSim Grids.
Today we visit the Rezzable Grid Alpha.
At one point Rezzable had 40 Sims in Second Life, as you can imagine this does get a bit unwieldy and expensive to manage. These issues plus lack of control of the actual content, and then OpenSpaces issue (as detail by Zonja Capalini), lead them to explore using OpenSim.
Firstly you will need to sign up to get a Rezzables account to visit the Sim at http://rezzable.com/user/register
After you have Registered, you can go to this website
and follow the instructions, on how to get connected.
It's a bit different to other grids I have visited, as you need to download a launcher from the website, this will ask to start the SL client, passing across the grid settings and allowing you to login to the grid. I guess this is to make it as foolproof as possible.
Once you have downloaded the launcher, click on the Red Private Grid Button again, this starts the launcher, you will probably be asked by your PC, if you want it to run, so say yes, and the SL client should automatically log you in.
TADA!! You should now be on a giant table, and being Ruth. On the table is some free skins and clothes, there is a AO being offered, but it doesn't seem to want to hand it over to you.
If you remember Greenies, and I'm sure most people do, then it will be very familiar to you, but no vehicles, no flying saucers, and no cockroaches.
I've not found the beach here, but the doors and windows are locked.
Coke on the table top, and no one has cleaned it up yet.
Quick..someone..anyone, throw him a life jacket, or a Pea from the Fridge!
He must be totally full of Coke over there.
When we can turn on "Damage", I think behind the Iron would be a great place to snipe from.
Greenies is unusual as it's actually lots of space. It's not crowded with items that are trying to grab your attention. When flying around, it does take awhile to realize just how much space is free.
This is just the current iteration of the Rezzables Grid, remember they had 40 Sims worth of content, such as Crimson Shadow, Black Swan, the Dinos.
If you enjoyed visiting them in Second life, it might be appearing here one day.
"I think the idea of virtual worlds will not be a dead-end novelty as long as the software gets better with less bugs and continued development, and enough people in UK education see the potential and create examples of virtual world experiences which can be shown to positively benefit the users."(Lindsay Da Silva)


text: Hail fellow well met! This week I should be taking delivery of 1000 points worth of Seraphon, and as I post a bunch of progress pics to instagram I thought I should at least post them here and add some kind of commentary so people can see what's going on and how I am getting on. I have a loose deadline of the end of April which is when an escalation league for AoS is starting at my local GW which I want to be ready for - I don't have the starting points values yet, but I have about 57 models to paint for starters, so have my work cut out. Here's a few bits of my work so far on other projects, and as soon as the Seraphon arrive I'll update! My very first model, painted on boxing day 2016. A few weeks later I started on some skeletons. And a Spirit Host. Then finally I spent a few weeks working on this for the local GW's painting competition: My humblest apologies for the blasphemous lack of lizards so far... Next time there will be dinosaurs, I promise.

barrel tasting
Barrel Background
January 24, 2019 10:14
Winter brings our activities inside so the cellar crew is hard at work transferring last year's vintage, 2017, out of barrel and bringing in the 2018 vintage to rest for a year or more. We also have our site set on Barrel Tasting which is an annual educational event held the first two weekends of March. Join me for a bit of barrel background.
We'll start with ullage (hint-it's not a town in Sweden) and it is what happens to wine as it spends time in a bottle or a year in the barrel. Ullage describes the loss of wine due to evaporation while the wine ages. When someone asks me about their 1974 Cabernet and they want to know if it is sound one of the first questions I ask is to describe the fill line on the bottle. The high or low level of the wine in the neck of the bottle tells me if there has been loss over time and possibly determines spoilage because too much air has oxidized the contents. It is the same in a barrel except instead of an ounce of wine lost it is closer to about a gallon every 3 months. The cellar crew helps to prevent oxidation by taking down each and every barrel and topping it off every couple of months. However even at this cost (in wine) the act of barrel aging does concentrate by the slow vaporizing of water and alcohol. Why do you think a barrel room smells so good? It's all about wine vapor. Oak (and cork) is permeable and ultimately, even though a little air is a good thing, the benefits of concentration and slow development outweigh the loss of product.
The act of 'thieving' wine is part of the educational process. Usually the winemaker will taste the young wine while it is heading into the barrel and then, using a wine thief, will check on the progress a few more times during the year as it matures. The wine thief itself, pictured below in a painting by Richard Sheppard, is nothing more than a glass tube for siphoning out a small sample of the wine. During the aging process, as the water and alcohol dissipate, the wine softens little by little, concentrates a bit more. It will take on aspects of the oak as well as loosen up its' grip. If you are trying a wine from the recent harvest be prepared-the tannins are pretty harsh but the silver lining is you get a glimpse of things to come—the fruit components, the acidity, the body—and some of the characteristics will dominate the others. It boils down to a matter of time. Winemakers are a patient lot. Time in the barrel equals a nicely aged wine making it more ready to drink upon release.
Insider tip: You don't have to become a winemaker to thief wine around these parts (Northern Sonoma County) because we have an event that celebrates Barrel Tasting via the the Wine Road. 40 years ago a few wineries banded together, Pedroncelli included, to market wines made from the Alexander, Dry Creek and Russian River Valleys, to locals and visitors alike. Today guests buy tickets, roam the wine roads, taste young red and white wines and learn more about the process of aging. We usually pair the barrel sample with the current release for comparison's sake. Sometimes we throw in a library vintage of the same varietal-all in the name of educating one's palate. Enjoy an insider's look at wine making by attending and tasting for yourself—the first two weekends of March. It is the focus of aging wine that brings great development and style. Time in the barrel is as important to wine as is the source of grapes.
Barreling Through The Years
February 27, 2018 15:30
Barrel time in wine country is important enough to have its' own celebration in the form of two Barrel Tasting weekends in March. 41 years ago the Barrel Tasting, originally sponsored by the then Russian River Wine Road (now simply Wine Road) a group of wineries located near the Russian River, began as a way for people to discover northern Sonoma County. 41 years ago there were less wineries hence wines to try-it was at the beginning of the wine renaissance here. Today you have the joy of discovering new and old friends in the mix with over 100 wineries thieving samples out of the barrel for you. The event takes place between Alexander, Dry Creek and Russian River Valleys.
Back in those early years there were less than 30 wineries participating. I have been here for 33 years and have worked a majority of those weekends. We went from trying to keep up with cleaning glasses to having folks 'BYOG' followed quickly by the first branding efforts with an official logo glass for $5. Numbers of wineries now range over 120 participating! Futures were added later on and not much has changed except the number people attending going from 100 to 25,000 at the peak in 2008. These days we see less people than at the peak-much less-which in turn gives us more time for visitors to taste and ask questions. Winemakers and cellar crews stand at the ready to talk about the wine and process of barrel aging. Join us this year as we feature the Past, Present and Future of our Alto Vineyards Sangiovese-a library release, our current 2015 vintage and the 2016 still in barrel. A splash of Sangiovese in my Dino with a toast to 40 more years of barrel tasting.

Thanks for visiting my blog. As co-founder of the BeyeNETWORK, acquired by TechTarget in 2010, I am privileged to participate in many industry-related activities as a BeyeNETWORK expert covering business intelligence and analytics. These events provide me with a unique insider perspective into the business intelligence ecosystem, its products and the vendors that provide those products. I'll be sharing that invaluable information with you through this blog, which will also be a reflection my business philosophy. And, just to make this interesting, I'll be sure to include my personal point of view on a wide range of topics and share some of the stories of people I meet in my travels.
"I do believe that people are starting to realize that there's not going to be one silver bullet. It's not going to be one specific technology that solves everybody's problems, but it's more likely to be a coexistence of technologies put together in the right way, in the right combination, to solve the right problems tomorrow better than they could have today."Here's a link to the full interview.

If, however, you love getting your readings via snail mail and you don't mind waiting for the postie, then never fear! Snail mail readings are still available, too!
