Vinyl Flooring in Burnaby Supplying Greater Vancouver BCVinyl flooring is a very popular and practical flooring choice as it is easy to clean and maintain, is durable, and it is comfortable to stand on. It is a great option for kitchens and bathrooms as it is slip-resistant and doesnt get damaged by water as easily as some other flooring options.
Vinyl flooring is available in 12 or 18 square inch tiles, as well as planks or sheets up to 16 feet wide.
Vinyl Flooring, Vinyl Tile, Vinyl Sheets, Resilient Flooring
Vinyl flooring is made from several materials. It is also available in a variety of colours, patterns, and textures.
Vinyl flooring is very versatile in terms of installation, as it may be installed on top of plywood subfloors, concrete, or existing floors such as hardwood or laminate. However, it is very important that the subfloor is smooth, as bumps and seams will become visible on the surface over time.
Sheet vinyl can be installed with barely any seams, and sometimes none at all. However, installation of sheet vinyl can be difficult and is best done by a professional.
Vinyl has a durable coating on its surface that is called a wear layer. If durability is of importance, it is a good idea to take a look at commercial vinyl flooring which comes with less colour options but is extremely durable. Waxing is usually not required for any vinyl flooring as it is usually given a protective surface layer.
Resilient Flooring
Vinyl, polyurethane, linoleum, asphalt, and cork all fall under the category of resilient flooring, but vinyl is the most common resilient flooring material. It is so popular due to its comfort, durability, and easy maintenance. It is also relatively inexpensive.
Maintaining and Cleaning Resilient FlooringResilient flooring is very durable, but if proper maintenance procedures arent followed it can still get damaged. Floors should be kept clean of dirt and grit, as this can get ground in to the surface and wear away the protective layer. If a spill occurs, either food or liquid, it should be wiped up immediately or the stain may become hard to remove. Before they have a chance to set, stains should be removed using a cloth dipped in liquid floor cleaner, or a nylon pad. Abrasive cleaners and mechanical buffers should be avoided, as this may weaken the protective coating and cause your floor to wear out faster.
Scratches and gouges may occur if care is not taken to avoid them. Again, keep your resilient flooring free of dirt at all times. Heavy foot traffic and moving furniture can also cause wear patterns, so placing mats at exterior doors or high traffic areas is a good idea. Also furniture that gets moved often should have felt or rubber protective pads placed on the bottom. The colours and patterns on your resilient flooring that spend too much time in direct sunlight may begin to fade over time, so resilient flooring is not the best option for spaces that receive a lot of sun.
If resilient flooring is not installed properly, it may develop bumps or bubbles under the surface, and curled up edges. To avoid this, have your flooring professionally installed.
It is recommended you save some of your flooring material or tiles so that if damage does occur repairs may be made.
Again, the proceeding information is generic and presented only as a guide. Any damage resulting from failure to follow recommendations will not be covered under warranty.
Vinyl Plank Flooring: Glue-Down, Click System
Vinyl plank flooring is vinyl flooring that is available in strips or tiles that looks like real hardwood or tile. It is extremely versatile as you get the look of hardwood or tile, but as it is vinyl, it is extremely durable and resists moisture.
Vinyl flooring is available in a wide variety of styles, providing endless design options. It may mimic lighter wood to look like ash or bamboo, or darker wood that looks like cherry or oak. Vinyl flooring is available in faux hardwood, faux stone, and faux ceramic tile. It can be installed residentially or commercially and is much more affordable than traditional hardwood and tile floors.
Vinyl flooring is ideal for lower budgets and for spaces in which hardwood floors could get damaged. Unlike hardwood floors that can be very easy to scratch and stain, vinyl flooring can stand up to much more abuse without showing any signs of wear and tear. You get the look of hardwood but the durability of vinyl flooring. Design-wise, it is just like real hardwood, but it is easier to clean, easier to install, and is available at far less the cost of real hardwood flooring.
Vinyl flooring usually comes in either rolls or strips and is extremely easy to install. Its a great choice for commercial use, a childs room, a family room, a rec room, or a playroom. It wont be damaged or stained by children playing with toys, or pet accidents. It is also very easy to clean, as it can be wet mopped without much risk of damage. It is holds up great to spills and moisture, which makes it great for kitchens, bathrooms, mudrooms, basements and laundry rooms. You may even install it in a garage.
Finishing & MaintenanceIn order to keep your floor in good condition, the following measures should be taken:

Holden's push to win the hearts and minds of Australian buyers is kicking goals this week, with the announcement of the first winner in its 'Home Ground Advantage' community campaign.
Introduced in November, the program promises $5 million in grants for grassroots sporting clubs over the next 10 years.
Queensland's Maryborough Bears are the first club to benefit from a Holden funds injection, landing $100,000 to foster the recruitment of female members.
"With a shortage of resources and no funding for adequate facilities, over the years we've seen our female club members dwindle," Mayborough Bears Vice President, Jason O'Brien, said.
"We're currently down to our last two female players, with a lack of privacy in the sheds a major contributor to this."
Bears Vice President, Jason O'Brien, said the funds will go towards new separate change rooms and other club facilities that will be open to local schools and community groups.
The Bears beat out 1600 other clubs and groups to become the Home Ground Advantage program's biggest first round winner, although other clubs secured smaller grants.
Among them were the Blackwoods Football Club and Brimbank Rugby Union Clubs in Victoria, along with the Burnie Basketball Association in Tasmania, the Fletcher FC Saints in NSW and 14 other clubs around Australia.
Entries for the next round will open on June 1.
Most grants will be made up of amounts up to $10,000, although each round will see one project awarded a grant of up to $100,000.

Dangerous Dillon, an eight year old border terrier gave his owners a fright yesterday when the poor pup fell during a walk up to High Tor.
Derby Mountain Rescue Team was called to Matlock Bath at around 1pm on Thursday July 23 to help a Peak Ranger search for Dillon, who had fallen over the edge of the path up to High Tor while being walked by his 'mum'.
The rescuers said: "It was initially feared that he might have fallen to the bottom of the crag as he couldn't be seen or heard from the top.
"The team searched the bottom of the crag but fortunately he was found safe and well on a small ledge around 20 feet below the path, and was placed in one of the team's equipment bags as a make shift dog harness, and carried back to the top, with the team using a simple rope system for safety.
"Dillon was reunited with his party and after a few biscuits and lots of cuddles was able to continue the rest of his walk."

St Ralph Sherwin, our local saint, was born nearby at Rodsley, Derbyshire in 1550. He moved to the English College, Douai where he was ordained priest and returned to England with 13 companions in April 1580 in November of that year he was arrested, imprisoned and sent to the Tower of London. He consistently refused to renounce his faith and a year later he was hung, drawn and quartered at Tyburn.He was canonised in 1970 and is one of the 40 Martyrs of England and Wales.
St Ralph's feastday is 1st December the day of his martyrdom.
St Ralph is venerated in our small side chapel which has a beautiful stained glass commemorative window and the relics of the saint.

On June 16, 2017, President Trump issued a National Security Presidential Memorandum on Strengthening the Policy of the United States Toward Cuba, which began the process to alter some aspects of U.S. policy toward Cuba. [See prior blog post here]. On July 25, 2017, OFAC updated its Cuba FAQs to address upcoming changes to its Cuba sanctions rules as they relate to pre-existing contracts, licenses, and travel arrangements.
Some of the more important points in the new OFAC guidance include the following:
- Treatment of existing contracts and companies engaged in the Cuban market
OFAC states that companies already engaged in the Cuban market with entities related to the Cuban military, intelligence, or security services that may be affected by the new Cuba sanctions regime will be allowed to continue after issuance of the new regulations. In the updated FAQs, OFAC further clarifies that "businesses will be permitted to continue with transactions outlined in contingent or other types of contractual arrangements agreed to prior to the issuance of the new regulations, consistent with other [Cuban Assets Control Regulations] authorization."
- Addition of "subentities"
OFAC indicated that the State Department will be publishing a list not only of "entities with which direct transactions generally will not be permitted," but also a list of "subentities." This suggests that the Administration plans to assemble its own list of entities that are considered to be owned or controlled by the Cuban military, intelligence, and security services, which may be useful to U.S. companies by lessening their burdens to investigate the ownership of some Cuban entities.
- Travel
OFAC explains that for travel after issuance of the forthcoming regulations, as long as a traveler has already completed at least one travel-related transaction prior to June 16, 2017, such as purchasing a flight, the trip and any meetings with listed entities/subentities will be permitted.
- People-to-People Travel. The latest FAQs reiterate that the general license allowing individual people-to-people travel will end once Treasury issues the upcoming regulations. Nevertheless, group people-to-people travel will remain available subject to the rules in 31 CFR § 515.565(b).
- Persons Organizing or Sponsoring people-to-people or educational travel. OFAC clarifies in new FAQs that such parties are covered by the general licenses and do not need to apply for a specific license.
- Remittances
The latest Cuba FAQs explain that remittances to Cuba will still be permitted under the new regulations. However, "changes will be made to the definition of prohibited members of Government of Cuba that may exclude certain persons from receipt of such remittances."
The June 16, 2017 Cuba FAQs may be found here.
The July 25, 2017 Cuba FAQs may be found here.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.

WASHINGTON -- Dick Cheney will be called to testify at the perjury and obstruction trial of his former chief of staff, in what would be a historic appearance by a sitting vice president in a criminal prosecution, lawyers said yesterday.
The decision by I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby's lawyers to call Cheney as a witness in the federal court trial scheduled to begin here in January ends months of speculation about the role senior White House officials would play.
The stage is set for an appearance that could offer new insight into Cheney's relationship with his top aide and for a cross-examination by special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald that could lay bare how the Bush administration responded to its critics.

A 20-year-old Rathdrum man got a little ahead of himself late Sept. 2, when he told police that a male stranger was hiding in the backseat of his truck with a gun. This morning's Coeur d'Alene Press reports that the alleged victim told detectives the truth on Sept. 3: no gun was present.
"He said he just got overexcited when telling officers about the gun," Post Falls Police Captain Greg McLean told the Press.
After the alleged victim reported the incident, law enforcement from Post Falls, Idaho State Police and the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office swarmed a Rathdrum Prairie location. McLean said 10 units went out looking for the suspect.
A K-9 unit went to Poleline Avenue east of Highway 41, where the alleged victim told police the suspect demanded to be dropped off. The dog picked up a short track, but it came back to the exact same spot. No one was found.
Police said the alleged victim was visiting in a friend in Post Falls Monday night. He left his Chevy Avalanche unlocked and, after he started driving home to Rathdrum around 9:45 p.m., he noticed a male sitting in the backseat. He estimated that the man was in his mid-20s, and wore a dark-hooded sweatshirt. He said he never saw the suspect's face.
The alleged victim said the suspect told him to head north on Highway 41, then to turn east onto Poleline Avenue, and demanded to be dropped off a few blocks from Highway 41.
He told the driver not to follow him and headed into a wooded area, according to the victim, who then turned around on Poleline and called 911 at the nearby Express gas station. The victim had a cellphone, but McLean said he wanted to go to a place where there were people around and he could feel more comfortable.
The investigation continues.

|Raytheon's Chairman and CEO honored with Atlantic Legal Foundation's Annual Award
Swanson accepted the award from Foundation Chairman Hayward D. Fisk in ceremonies held at the
Swanson thanked the
Swanson, an early and respected business leader in support of science, technology, engineering and math education (STEM), urged businesses that may still be on the education sidelines in supporting STEM education to, "Put on your helmets and pads and join us on the field." It was, he said, "the right thing to do for business, and it's the right thing to do for our country."
Swanson noted that there are many ways for business to get involved in ensuring an adequate STEM pipeline. "One area where business engagement is needed," he said, "is helping improve workforce alignment. Too many students and adults are training for jobs in which labor surpluses exist and demand is low – while high-demand jobs, particularly those in STEM fields, go unfilled."
He observed, "As job creators, businesses are on the frontlines of this supply-demand dynamic." As a result, he said, they have a "tremendous opportunity to work together with academia to identify and address the structural misalignment between education and workforce needs."

2 UNESCO World Heritage List The World Heritage List includes 890 properties forming part of the cultural and natural heritage which the World Heritage Committee considers as having outstanding universal value. 2
3 UNESCO WHL Nomination A Member State makes a Tentative List of properties it may decide to submit for Inscription as World Heritage Sites. With the help of the World Heritage Centre, the Member State puts together an exhaustive Nomination File for a property on its Tentative List. The Centre reviews it and sends it to Advisory Bodies for evaluation. 3
4 UNESCO WHL Nomination The World Heritage Committee meets once a year to decide which sites will be inscribed on the World Heritage List. The criteria for inscription are explained in the Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention 4
5 UNESCO WHL Online The World Heritage list is available on line at: http://whc.unesco.org http://whc.unesco.org 5
6 The website contains the principal data from every World Heritage site: -General description -Maps -Related documents -Pictures -Threats
7 Under Documents all the data related to the Advisory Body Evaluation, the Nomination File (prepared by the concerned State Party aiming inscription of a property on the WH List) and the Decisions taken by the World Heritage Committee are listed.
8 UNESCO WH sites data Physical materials submitted as part of a nomination file are: legal documentation, maps, pictures, slides, and bibliography related to the site. Digital materials are collated in a single PDF document. The files submitted are discarded - the PDF is the sole record of the digital materials kept by UNESCO. 8
9 CASPAR and the WH Inscription Process More and more materials in Nomination Files are –Digital –More complex than simple text and images The current procedures are inadequate for dealing with these issues A new concern for UNESCO: the preservation of digital data. 9
10 The importance of digital data preservation (background) Globally in 2006, humankind produced over 161 billion gigabytes of data. Trends show these patterns increasing by a factor of six by 2010 leading to zettabytes (one sextillion bytes) of new information. With standards and protocols changing as technologies move forward we often lose the ability to access what we once thought was important enough to record. For example, an estimated 44% of Websites that existed just a decade ago have vanished. 10
11 UNESCO and the digital data preservation International concern over the loss of digital knowledge have prompted UNESCO to adopt in 2003 UNESCO the Charter on the Preservation of the Digital Heritage. 11
12 UNESCO and the digital data preservation The Charter presents the key principles to be adopted by UNESCO's Member States in order to ensure the ongoing protection of digital heritage. It outlines the arguments for guarding against the loss of digital heritage, the measures required to protect and preserve digital heritage and the roles and responsibilities of UNESCO and Member States towards ensuring the preservation of digital heritage. 12
13 CASPAR a solution for the preservation of UNESCOs digital data More and more digital data is produced every day at UNESCO. After the adoption of the Charter the organization started to be aware of threats that are facing our digital data. We need to start preserving the data inside the organization. CASPAR: a solution for the preservation of UNESCOs digital data 13
14 A concrete case: Why preserving digital data? Preserved digital data = preserved WH site The Buddhas of Bamiyan (Afghanistan) 14
15 The Buddhas of Bamiyan (Afghanistan) The Buddhas of Bamyian, a UNESCO World Heritage site, were two monumental statues of standing Buddhas carved during the VIth century into the side of a cliff in the Bamyan valley. In 2001 they were intentionally dynamited and destroyed by the Taliban. After the destruction a reconstruction campaign was started. 15

No transaction fee on cross currency derivatives trade till Aug 31: NSE
SGX to list new India equity derivative products in June
Exchanges to stop trading of Indian indices on foreign bourses
NSE to conduct mock trading session in currency derivatives on July 14
SGX assures orderly trading of Indian equity derivatives
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) plans to focus on equity, debt and interest rate futures segments for business expansion as well as on reducing the cost of raising funds for companies, a senior official said today.
Equity market penetration has the potential to grow and the bourse intends to concentrate on segments like debt, interest rate futures and commodity market for expanding its business, NSE chairman Ashok Chawla told reporters here at the exchange's silver jubilee celebrations.
On the occasion, NSE Managing Director and Chief Executive Vikram Limaye said there is a need to broaden the base of retail investors and enhance the participation of institutional investors.
On the priorities, Chawla said the exchange will focus on reducing the fund raising costs for companies and also looks at organic and inorganic growth opportunities.
Stating that the focus is not on equity alone, Limaye said, "Be it debt or equity, credit risk or commodity risk, we will focus on all."
"We are focussing on Fintech solutions in terms of getting retail investors as their participation is very low in the Indian capital markets as compared to other developed nations," he added.
Equity holding in India is at 5 per cent of total household savings, which is much less than 30-40 per cent average in developed markets.
Besides, participation of institutional investors needs to be enhanced and regulatory changes are required for the same.
He further said the exchange is keen on spotting opportunities in other overseas markets.
"NSE is working to upgrade technology and strengthen its surveillance system and (has) a holistic view on risk management system," he added.
Limaye expects to see market development expediting over the next two-three years. "A lot can be done in terms of domestic and global collaboration," he said.
Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Road Transport and Shipping Minister Nitin Gadkari, Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal and Niti Aayog Vice Chairman Rajiv Kumar also attended the exchange's silver jubilee celebrations.
President Ramnath Kovind, who was scheduled to attend the event, opted out citing his busy schedule. A message by Kovind was read out at the event.

i feel like i dont know what to do with myself.
there are a zillion things i should probably finish around the house
like finish unpacking my boxes of things and finish setting up my art room.
but there is zero motivation to do it. as soon as i start one thing, another thing
catches my eye and then i get distracted and nothing gets done.
oh such lame excuses.
maybe once i get a hold of a job, ill have some sort of routine so ill be able to
slowly finish everything. maybe. who knows. im such an indeciesive person its
well here are a few things i am hoping to accomplish by the end of the summer time '09:
- obtain a part time or full time job for the summer.
- un pack the rest of my stuff.
- create a reading list and read as many books as possible.
- even out my rugby/driving tan.
- paint a masterpiece.
- organize my endless amount of photographs and maybe create
a series of something to maybe exhibit or sell...a girl can dream!
- fix up the missing pieces of my car
- work out and tone up my chuubb!
- GO TO THE BEACH and show off my newly toned body..muaha a girl can dream, again!
well thats all that i can think of off the top of my head.
heres a few more links to check out that i've found:

Karmaloop: http://www.karmaloop.com/

"Sydney you're totally not fat, you're like the perfect size!"
Those were the words that came out of my SIX year old nieces mouth. Yes. my baby niece, Danielle* who when first born made my bawl like a friggin baby every time i looked at her in the incubator because i was in so much awe that i was an auntie and i would get to help guide this little girl throughout her life etcetc. Now i know girls mature faster then boys, but lately, the stories shes been telling me when she gets home from school make me slightly concerned at what has been influencing her and the girls at her school.
The quote in the title of this blog was from a story she told me about how a girl, Sydney* who is a year older than her thinks shes fat, and had told my niece. What frightens me is how in god's name are 6 and 7 year old girls worrying about if they think they are fat or not. THE WORD FAT SHOULDN'T EVEN BE IN THEIR VOCABULARY AT THIS AGE. Now Danielle has been raised in a very loving family, with parents that tell her she is beautiful and loved every second of every day of her life since the minute she popped out and started wailing. Actually scratch that, since the day they found out they were pregnant with her. We always try to teach her that being healthy is more important then being thin or obese and that everybody is different in their own ways, body shapes included. Obviously such topics are sensitive because you don't want to project the wrong ideas and you need to be careful in the way you word things because they can always be misinterpreted. When my niece sits there and tells me such stories, it is so disapointing and frustrating because she and her friends shouldn't be worrying about insignificant things at such an age, or ever for that matter. It wasn't till about middle school that i started to get lower self esteem and become extremely self concious about my body image. To this day i still struggle with self-acceptance and its something that i hope she never has to go through.
I question where these girls get such thoughts too. Is it the media and what they are seeing on television and movies? Or who their favourite music idols are? I've never thought Hannah Montanna was that bad of an influence. I mean yeah, some of the publicity surrounding Miley Cyrus hasn't ALWAYS been positive but its not like my niece sits there and reads the tabloid magazines. And i will admit, i have watched my fair share of Hannah Montanna episodes and i haven't ever really noticed anything horrible about it. Mind you Danielle still watched the Treehouse channel because of my youngest niece who will be 2 years old next november.
I've racked my brain that past few days, and came to the conclusion that i cannot control everything that my nieces do, what they watch, who they hang out with, despite wanting to protect them from such things as society's ridiculous and unrealistic perspectives on what true beauty is or something simpler as realizing that boys really don't have cooties (all of the time). Even though the thought of them growing up and becoming more exposed to the real world and the sometimes bleaker aspects that come with it, all i can really do is answer all of their questions to the best of my ability, show them the better parts and opportunities of our world, be there whenever they need me, and hope to god that when it comes to making decisions they're able to take what they've learned and apply it so the outcome is something that will make them happy.
*names have been changed.

technically unemployed. FML.
so i am home from school as mentioned before. i've had several job interviews and applied absolutely everywhere, also previously mentioned but i just can't seem to get a job in this ridiculous small town. i managed to get hired in about a week 1/2 when i was living in toronto with absolutely no problem whatsoever. move back home and so far all i've managed to successfully accomplish is my freelancing job at the local newspaper. Although this is totally awesome and really good publicity, i have yet to recieve my first assignment which is fairly disapointing cause that means zero cash for me. I've also applied for this marketing researching job where you basically get paied to fill out surveys and give corporate companies your opinion on their products etc. Brilliant opportunity and obviously i've signed up, but its also going slow-i have to wait for these corporate companies to send me these surveys. I'm not very patient as you can see. My stash of cash is running ridiculously low so all i want is to just start working so i can pay for my car and save up for school since i most likely will not recieve as much financial help from OSAP.
ugh. enough financial and school talk.
yesterday was my two year anniversary with my boy :)
it doesnt feel like two years has gone by already, time goes by so fast! i still remember our first date and the first time we kissed and how ridiculously giddy i was. it really does feel like it was just yesterday. i know i've expressed it an endless amount of times throughout my blogs but i'm just really glad we've made it this far. i love him too much for my own good and although i think of myself as independent, i would feel a bit lost without him in my life. who would be there to make me fall over laughing from his silly jokes and random moments of craziness? who would be there to cuddle and rub my back for me!? and really, who would be able to know me inside and out as well as he does, its hard to say but i've never had anybody know me to the extent where all i have to do is look at him and he knows something is wrong. so in conclusion to this point; michael i hope we get to celebrate more anniversarys and experience more events throughout our lives. i love you with my whole heart! xo
well, its fairly late and i should probably get some sleep. as of right now i have been going to sleep at 230-300 in the AM every night and waking up around 1030 in the morning. DEF not enough sleep for mee.

A friend of mine bought some land in Zindra recently and one lot was an attractive beach front piece. With a good ground texture plus access to the ocean and a Linden road this seemed like a really good place to buy. However it suffers from Mainland diversity. Sure, I'm a champion of Mainland and the craziness which it generates, but I have to admit that my land is surrounded by nice neighbors with good taste in what they put on their land. Not so with the land heretofore mentioned.
On one side, as pictured above, is a sex club (Zindra, remember) with excessively large Full Bright signs, some in neon. The structure itself is fairly tasteful. The interior is very poorly put together, but you don't have to go look. If I drop my draw distance from 128m to 64m most of the building would disappear from this vantage point, but that's not a solution. It gets worse to the south.
That land across the road is a series of unfinished sky platforms and terrible fireworks 24/7 regardless of the day cycle. The latter I could live with. Not the sky platforms. They are more disruptive to the experience than are the bright signs on the other lot.
Mainland needs some regulation and I strongly feel that this would improve the Resident experience and possibly save Mainland, bringing in more revenue for The Lab. It has been done before. That his how Zindra was created. The Lab came along and told people "If you have adult activities such as sex clubs, shops with pornographic images, or other such content, you need to move to this new continent." To aid the mandatory move, The Lab swapped out land anywhere in SL with new land in Zindra. Early adopters and volunteers to go first got some favorable swaps. Others were simply forced.
A similar move could be done to separate residential and commercial land. I don't want my home next to a huge department store and I sure don't want my scenic landscaping next to Full Bright signs advertising boobs. Mind you, I like boobs, but sometimes it is better to conceal to reveal. To paraphrase the real estate mantra, "Atmosphere! Atmosphere! Atmosphere!" Harmonious districting of land would let those who wish to have attractive homes cluster together and set all the commercial properties together so shoppers and clubbers wouldn't have to wander all over for their needs.

Stockholm police spokeswoman Eva Nilsson confirmed that police had found a body and a suspicious object, but later she said it had been determined the object was not dangerous and police did not believe a crime had been committed.

SFCritic Interview with The Besnard Lakes: Why Spy
The perfect spy is undetectable, capturing what he wants, never rising any suspicion. His goals are unknown as he lives two lives—much like a musician. With The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Nights, The Besnard Lakes continue their conceptual theme of espionage, but why, well that's the question. SFCritic interviewed Jace Lasek, hoping to unveil the mystery behind the spy, before the group infiltrates The Independent and performs on May 10th.
SFCritic (SFC): I read that for this you had to "cleanse" yourself of your thoughts before starting the process again. What type of thoughts were you cleansing yourself of?
Jace Lasek (JL): The first two records, Volume 1 and Dark Horse, we never had any intention of anybody ever listening to them. I wanted to approach this record in the same way, but it plagued me a little because I knew in the back of my mind there were going to be people listening to this record, whether it was a 1,000 people or 10 people.
Once we sort of locked ourselves in there [studio], and started making it, I started to get really confused what it was that we were actually making. That's when I knew we were making something good, because I felt that way with Volume 1 and Dark Horse.
SFC: Can you explain a little more about how you knew the album was going to be good because you were confused? What does that mean?
JL: I think the fact that I finally started making something that couldn't really be pinpointed in the modern genre of music. We were making something that was kind of strange, and I felt that we were on to something, something right.
SFC: So, one thing that is strange about your music is your fascination with spies. What is it that is so exciting about spies to you?
JL: It makes a really wide topic to sing about. I like the idea of the mystery of a person knowing things about the world that other people don't know, like a singular person being able to change the direction of world politics.
SFC: Do you ever feel like you're a spy?
JL: No. [laughs] No, never.
SFC: Never?
JL: No, never.
SFC: I guess if you were you probably wouldn't admit it at this point.
JL: Yeah, exactly. Next question, that's kind of weird.
SFC: Well maybe if it's a weird question than I'm on to something.
JL: [laughs] Maybe I am a spy. I can't talk about it. No comment.
SFC: No comment! Within your model, who is a public figure you might deem a spy whether literally or metaphorically?
JL: That's a good one. I'm not sure. Maybe Phil Spector was a spy.
SFC: Oh, he could hide a lot in his hair.
JL: Wasn't the guy who ran Studio 54, he was a spy for some sort of KGB. They made a movie about it.
SFC: I didn't know that.
JL: It's this really cool story about this guy, and I think it's at Studio 54. He ended up dying mysteriously in a hotel room or something. That's pretty cool, because musicians have the same sort of experience. The "For Spy Turned Musician" which is a song off the first record, Volume 1, they travel around all the time, see different parts of the world, they got to cross the country, and carry their passports with them.
In a way you're sneaking around trying to hide your identity because people think you're a nice person, you know. Or you're masking your true identity like some people like to dress up and look weird. David Bowie and his Stardust thing. So there are similarities between musicians and spies.
SFC: There is. Maybe we should return to the question Jace, are you a spy?
JL: No comment.
SFC: But again, I can't break you. You're good! You're good!
JL: I've been practicing.
SFC: Is there anything that listeners should be searching for hidden on Are the Roaring Night?
JL: Well there is Morse code on the record. I've never been able to figure out what it is because of course I don't know Morse code. I recorded it at one point from short waves and put it on the album, but I don't know what it means. It came from a radio transmission. Maybe somebody can tell me what that means?
SFC: Maybe our readers can help. Because your album is a concept album, does that affect the order of your live set?
JL: It does actually. Our songs can be so bloody slow and plotting that if we did just the album in the order that it came, first of all we would drive ourselves fucking batty doing the same thing every night. Second of all, we would bore the hell out of people.
SFC: My final question, when you do come out finally as spy, who would you be affiliated with, and what would be your mission?
JL: [laughs] I can't wait to read this article. I would probably be associated with the Black Lodge searching for evil.
The Besnard Lakes perform at The Independent on May 10th. Tickets are $12 in advance, and $14 at the door. Doors open at 7:30pm. The performance begins at 8pm.

A handsome timepiece should be a part of every man's wardrobe.
It's the one accessory that can complete an outfit or bring it to life. But, usually we associate the highest quality watches with an even higher price tag. Affordable ones can also boast a solid build and stylish characteristics, making it easy to have a great timepiece without breaking the bank.
That's why we compiled this list of functional and fun options that don't require you to shell out multiple paychecks. Some impress with their sleek, classic designs, while others showcase their distinct movements.
Whether you're looking for a new watch for yourself or know someone who is very deserving this holiday season, make sure you consider one of these striking timepieces.

LONDON: Errol Spence Jr would be happy to fight Amir Khan, who he says is a bigger name than Kell Brook.
The American makes the first defence of the IBF welterweight title he prised away from Brook against former Khan opponent Lamont Peterson on January 20.
Khan has put Spence Jr on his three-fight wishlist as he looks to regain a world title under Matchroom Boxing and having boxed in America for the last five years, could get a shot at the Texan known as 'The Truth'.
"It's something I would consider," Spence Jr exclusively told Sky Sports, when asked about facing Khan.
"He's a big name too, so if my manager came to me with that, I would consider it and talk with my coaches about it. I don't see why not, why it can't take place.
"His name is bigger because he has fought more big names [than Brook].
"Amir Khan has been around longer than Kell, fought more big names than Kell and certainly more Americans than Kell Brook.
"He has basically been an American fighter. Of course, he's a more known name than Kell Brook."
Spence Jr is confident he will beat Peterson – who took a controversial split decision over Khan back in 2011 – in his first title defence. Agencies

"You're on your period. You really don't know why you're emotional?" When he said that my jaw dropped. Like, whoa. Could that really be the reason? Yes, probably. That is definitely probably part of why I'm so emotional. But I'm not gonna lie, you guys. I am not okay. I mean, I'm fine. I'm totally healthy, I'm employed, I'm happily married, everything is perfect. I'm just not okay inside. I wish I was someone else. I wish I could disappear.
It's so stupid because I look at my life and I know how good things are, how lucky I am. We're okay, we're fine, everything is going to be okay, this too shall pass.This too shall pass.
But there's a pain in my heart, like something is breaking. Like I can actually feel my heart being crushed.
There are reasons. I can pinpoint them. But it's also everything all combined, everything piling up, stacks of to-do's and obligations and fears and busted expectations and broken hearts all spilling out of my mental inbox. A big fucking mess. I'm a mess.
I don't have the emotional bandwidth for this. I'm hanging on by shredded fingernails.
Michael has been so good to me the last few days. So calm, so kind, so willing to do whatever he needs to so I don't fall apart. I cry about how high-maintenance I am. Don't you love that? A girl who cries during dinner because she's too high-maintenance. Just stop being so fucking high-maintenance, idiot. What's wrong with me?
"I don't want to be this way! I don't want to be me!"
He wraps his arms around me, tucks the top of my head under his chin and holds me until I can breathe again.
I'm so tired of feeling this way. It's exhausting. But I know it will pass. It really will pass.

Andy Murray can still win Wimbledon and there is no need to panic about his recent dip in form, insists former British No 1 Greg Rusedski.
Murray crashed out in the first round of the Aegon Championships on Tuesday in a shock defeat by Australian world No 90 Jordan Thompson.
The loss came just 12 days before the start of Wimbledon and leaves Murray short of both match practice on grass and confidence ahead of the third grand slam of the year.
It also continues a worrying dip in form for the world No 1, who has lost nine times already in 2017, six of those coming against opponents ranked outside the top 20.
Rusedski, however, feels Murray's demise has been exaggerated.
"Everyone is blowing it out of all proportion," said Rusedski, who is working as an analyst for Eurosport.
"It's one match. At the end of the day, this isn't Wimbledon. He has another ten days left before he has to open up the tournament so we shouldn't read too much into this.
"It means he's going to get a bit more practice time, he'll be able to get on the grass at Wimbledon, which is a little slower, and on top of that the conditions are not going to be as hot. I really think Andy is going to be fine."
Rusedski added: "He'll just go play a few exhibition matches. Novak (Djokovic) has won Wimbledon before without playing any matches leading in and Rafa (Nadal) has done the same, so let's all not panic about it."
It remains to be seen whether Murray now chooses to enter any additional events next week, with Djokovic announcing on Wednesday he had accepted a wild card for the Aegon International at Eastbourne.
Djokovic has not entered an official grass-court competition between the French Open and Wimbledon since 2010, instead opting for rest and the odd exhibition match.
"This will be my first trip to Eastbourne. I have heard great things about the tournament," Djokovic said.
"I am looking forward to fine tuning my grass-court game there ahead of Wimbledon."
Meanwhile, British No 1 Johanna Konta crashed out of the Aegon Classic in Birmingham in the second round when she was beaten in straight sets by American Coco Vandeweghe.
World No 7 Konta won only 11 points as she lost the first set inside 24 minutes and, although she improved in the second set, fell to a 6-1, 6-3 reverse in 64 minutes.
Vandeweghe faces Spain's Garbine Muguruza in the last eight after her 6-1, 6-4 win over Alison Riske.
Fifth seed Kristina Mladenovic edged into the quarter finals with a 6-4, 7-6 (7/3) win over China's Zhang Shuai.
Elina Svitolina may skip Wimbledon because of a foot problem after the world No 5 was knocked out 6-4, 4-6, 6-2 by Italian qualifier Camila Giorgi.
Svitolina has only ever won two matches at Wimbledon and does not want to jeopardise her chances of success on hard courts.
The Ukrainian said: "I'm disappointed I'm out of the tournament, but not disappointed about my performance because I couldn't really show even like 50 per cent of what I can do.
"I was really looking forward to this year at Wimbledon. But today the court was slippery and it's so bad for my foot. I will do my best.
"But for the moment it's very uncomfortable, and there is a question, I think, about it, because the season is still long and there is lots of big tournaments as well where I will feel more comfortable and confident on the hard court."

The March 22 fixture against New Caledonia will be the first time the national team has played in the city for 25 years.
A win in the Friday night match will provide New Zealand coach Ricki Herbert and his charges Oceania's place in the intercontinental playoff against the fourth-placed Concacaf (North and Central American) nation in November 2013.
A draw would leave the All Whites needing a point four days later in the Solomon Islands, while a win for New Caledonia would see them draw level with New Zealand with a game to play.
"Anything is a possibility but nothing can be taken for granted in World Cup qualification," said All Whites coach Ricki Herbert.
The match is the first football international at the indoor Forsyth Barr Stadium, and is the first time the All Whites have played in Dunedin since 1988 against Australia.
New Zealand Football chief executive Grant McKavanagh said Dunedin was long overdue to host a high profile All Whites match, with other venues around New Zealand hosting key matches in the recent past.
"New Zealand Football is committed to playing matches around the country. We've already played All Whites fixtures in Auckland, Christchurch and now Dunedin."
The city was also the venue for New Zealand's first international when it played against Australia at Carisbrook in 1922.
"Dunedin is noted for its love of sport and 'scarfie' population," McKavanagh said. "In bringing this crucial match to Forsyth Barr Stadium, we're hoping to see supporters from the region get out en masse and support the All Whites as they chase a berth at the 2014 Fifa World Cup in Brazil."
Several of the Herbert's potential All Whites will get an advanced look at the venue when the Wellington Phoenix plays the Melbourne Heart at Forsyth Barr Stadium on March 3 in the A-League.

There's no standard way to track community interactions, and there's a wide variety of data to collect across the eight community types we've seen, so you're going to have to stitch together, clean up, and present community metrics yourself. There are paid tools that can help you collect and analyze community activity, which we'll look at later in this chapter. First, however, let's consider what you need to report.
The first rule for reporting is to remember why you have a community initiative in the first place. If the goal is to increase brand awareness, you should be reporting on visibility and mentions. On the other hand, if it's to reduce support call volumes, you need to track inbound calls and use of the online support forum.
Remember all the promises you made to your executive sponsor when you launched the community initiative? Tracking your progress toward the goals you agreed upon back then is critical. This is why you needed to know what the purpose of the community was: it's the only way to know what to report. It's easy to get bogged down in statistics and metrics about communities, but you need to distill all of that data down to the few nuggets of insight that help you inch toward your goal. Your executive sponsor won't care how many friends you have—she'll care how many of them told one another to buy something.
Table 14-1 lists some of the data you may want to include in a community report for your organization.

Palo Santo + Sacred Smoke Bundle
Burning sacred herbs is a deeply grounding + transformative practice. The sacred smoke shifts the energy and our consciousness to sacred space. These herbs serve as a bridge, connecting us to self, spirit, and our ancestors.
The Must Know
The Sacred Smudging ritual and ceremonial practice have been used by different Native cultures around the world for decades. By using sacred plants from mother earth, smudging purifies the body, energy, and space of negative energies to awaken the soul and bring fresh spirit.
- Palo Santo - Deeply grounds us, brings us back to our bodies, enhances inspiration, and created a cleansed + safe space.Wood from the sacred Bursera Graveolens Tree, native to parts of South + Central America. The tree falls down naturally and as it lays it takes about 6 years for the sap of the tree to reveal itself through the body, bringing its gift of sweet sacred smoke to us.
- White Sage - The ultimate healer - purifies the body, aura, energy, & space to awaken the soul, cleanse negative energies, & bring fresh spirit.
- Sweetgrass - The essence of the feminine, the "Sacred Hair of Mother Earth" she brings in happiness, comfort, love, warmth, intimacy, and sweetness
- Lavender - A calming + peaceful energy, heart-opening + self-loving.
- Rose - Love, love, love. Courage, intimacy, comfort.
How To Use
Before you start, set a motive of good intention. Repeat this intention while waving the smoke into all corners, across doorways, and into shadow spaces. To maintain the atmosphere of ritual, keep repeating the incantation in your mind as you diffuse the smoke. Once space is cleared, allow the sage bundle to either burn out or gently press it out in your heat-proof shell or container.

Es, 19 Jul 2016My phone was working well and recently sim 1 stopped working. The problem is not the sim, sinc... moreDid you update your phone?
I have same problem since I updated to recent BLU software...
My phone was working well and recently sim 1 stopped working. The problem is not the sim, since it worked in another phone. Disappointed!!!!!!!!!
I definitely do not recommend this phone. I purchased this phone to use when visiting family overseas. It advertised 4G but cannot connect to any of the 4g bands in the UK. I was not aware that there are other (slower) bands besides LTE. I was only ever able to get 3G coverage most days and even that was spotty. About half of my trip was on 2G and the poor phone looked like it was trying so hard to connect to anything or make a call. I had no reception on motorways. My my family who lives there and were on the same mobile provider in the same car had full bars of 4G on their LTE phones. I got the phone to use to keep in touch with my husband when we were not out together and it was almost completely useless. Other than the problems with service, the phone ran well so I was disappointed that it had horrible reception. I plan to upgrade my phone for my next trip overseas if my AT&T phone isn't unlocked by then, but will keep this as a backup in case one of our Samsung phones dies and we need something to use until we receive a replacement phone from insurance.
AnonD-441997, 17 Sep 2015I've had my phone for about 4 months and recently I've started to and now have a charging prob... moreSame exact problem here. Phone battery problems to the extreme made me turn in my first one for a replacement the next day. I simply with no outlet or charger cable I tried could get it to charge without flickering back and forth between charging and not. The new phone copy didn't do it for six months, but just yesterday it started doing it again. Once more, I can't get the charging to work with any cable or outlet. Some weird quirks about both times it's happened is that it will do it for hours on end and tell me the whole time the battery's slowly declining, but after disconnecting the charger, it will tell me it's half full suddenly a day or two later of no use, especially if I take the battery out and put it back in, even if it should be completely full for having charged a whole day. The whole thing is extraordinarily frustrating and completely avoidable if they had ever so slightly quality control to avoid simple electrical connectivity problems in the phones internal wiring. This company may advertise as producing nice phones affordably, but really the only thing nice about them is they run on Android. I'm going to get a refund to help switch and never look back, especially if I don't want to go through their entire production line looking for a phone with CORRECT WIRING.
The phone claims 4g, but the phone only offers 3g or 2g in settings. Sounds like misadvertisement.
nicki, 12 Jul 2015i cannot download music from any site at allHold down the download link and choose "save link" from the options instead of just selecting the download link
3g not working on any network in Ghana. I guess this phone wasn't made for us
no working 3G@ 4G why specially in African countries I am really sorry about BLU company
I have a BLU studio X Plus and would like to know if the front camera has a front light??
3g and 4g not working.... Worst gaming experience... It's heating toooo much
I bought my Blu Studio X Plus and it is working good, the processor works fast and camera is good.
Kenny , 26 Dec 2015The phone does not work on 3G in Ghana,Africa.l tried all the networks in Ghana all proved futile.I have the same problem with 3G in Tanzania and South Africa....
Dude, 14 Jul 2015Maybe buy phone on Ebay with small holes to put finger in for each number. Then turn dial unti... moreHa ha ha. Laughing my ass off

Weaning from breastfeeding. Let's talk about it, Moms. It isn't a walk in the park. It hurts. It's weird. And there are strange things involved -- like cabbage leaves. Anyone who tells you it's easy is lying. Or they have magical boobs.
Wondering what weaning is really like? Here's a visual play-by-play of what moms go through when weaning their babies from nursing.
One day you decide, "You know what? It's time to wean this little one from nursing. Having my boobs all to myself sounds so luxurious!"
You research "how to wean" and you're like, "Oh. This is going to be a piece of cake!"
You decide to put your plan into action the next day, but then your little one starts teething. Not a good time.
Weeks (or months!) later, you decide to give it the ol' college try again. You play it cool with your breasts. Don't show 'em off to your kiddo.
You try to offering a bottle, but your baby is like:
Eventually, slowly but surely, your nursing sessions decrease. But there's a bit of a problem: Your boobs have become your arch enemy:
You begin walking around with cabbage leaves stuffed into your bra, as if you were a living, breathing side-dish.
Your whole body feels weird. And finding a comfortable position to sleep in? LOL!
Finally, your milk gets the message and says adios.
You feel a little sad and hormonal.
But you've got your body back and you provided your baby with the best nourishment possible. Yay you! Now, for a drink -- or five, because you're done nursing!
What was your weaning experience like?

Tommy Morrison is not the first professional boxer to test positive for HIV, and if he continues to fight, he would not be breaking ground there, either.
Only three states -- Nevada, Washington and Arizona -- test boxers for HIV, and because of privacy concerns, none releases the names of those who test positive. In 1991, that policy allowed Eduardo Castro, who had been suspended in Nevada for being HIV-positive, to cross the state line and fight twice in California.
The same was true of former No. 1 middleweight contender Lamar Parks, who fought while HIV-positive for several years before his condition came to light and he was forced out of the sport.
