Paulius Petretis, leading cyber security expert reveals the importance email accounts have in the life of cyber criminals and why .
Vilnius, Lithuania – June 10, 2017 – Paulius Petretis, CEO of VORAS Consulting posted a new article on the company website entitled "How Much Is An Email Account Worth To Cyber Criminals", in which Mr. Petretis speaks to the vulnerability of anyone with an email account.
Petretis points out that, "Just about everyone these days has an email account. Many people have more than one with separate personal and business email accounts." He continues adding, "And a majority of people access their email accounts on their mobile devices. However, most people more than likely do not think about how their email accounts can be of value to cyber criminals."
According to Petretis, "Today cybercrime is escalating exponentially. Never has it been more important to be aware of the value cyber criminals place on email accounts. " He continues to elaborate, "As of March of this year, 2017, there were 1.2 million email accounts for sale on the dark web marketplace. Among those are 245,000 Yahoo accounts and more than 500,000 Gmail accounts. And, all of them are sold complete with usernames, email addresses and passwords."
"You may wonder what can be gained by being able to access your email account," writes Petretis. He elaborates, "Well, think about the fact that whenever you set up your bank account or an account with a retailer, you are typically asked to provide your email address."
He continues saying, "Whoever is in control of the email address can reset the password of any associated services or accounts –merely by requesting a password reset email. Hackers can access your contacts, your retail accounts and your bank accounts through your email account. So, as you can see, this can mean big business for the bad guys."
Petretis shares some interesting facts and figures provided at krebsonsecurity.come. He writes, "According to Krebsonsecurity.com there are price lists for various types of accounts that can be accessed through email accounts. As the article states, "One prominent credential seller in the underground peddles iTunes accounts for $8, and Fedex.com, Continental.com and United.com accounts for USD $6. Groupon.com accounts fetch $5, while $4 buys hacked credentials at registrar and hosting providerGodaddy.com, as well as wireless providers att.com, Sprint.com, Verizonwireless.com, and Tmobile.com. Active accounts at Facebook and Twitter retail for just $2.50 apiece." (https://krebsonsecurity.com/2013/06/the-value-of-a-hacked-email-account/)
You Can't Afford To Be Cavalier Even If You Don't Do Business Online
Petretis points out that no one can afford to be cavalier, even those who consider themselves old fashioned and refrain from conducting any business online. He attempts to erode their confidence by revealing more info from krebsonsecurity.com. "Even if your email isn't tied to online merchants, it is probably connected to other accounts you care about. Hacked email accounts are not only used to blast junk messages: They are harvested for the email addresses of your contacts. Those contacts can then be inundated with malware spam and phishing attacks. Those same contacts may even receive a message claiming you are stranded, penniless in a foreign country."

According to the annual survey initiated by the Info Security Europe, a whopping 93% of large organizations and 76% of small businesses had at least a single information security breach in 2011. Only 18% of the organizations affected by the infringements related to data protection laws had a consistent and effective contingency plan in place. According to Paulius, information is not something static – it evolves and mutates every day. It is the ecosystem of every business and if a single cell fails, it can bring down the entire business.
Therefore ensuring a consistent and up-to-date information protection policy must be the priority for all businesses – no matter how big or small they are. As it might be unrealistic to believe that any young or experienced entrepreneur can be the jack of all trades, the really smart decision is to rely on specialists who dedicate their professional lives to getting to know everything there is to know about protecting important business information.
With more than 16 years of experience in helping people, small businesses, and government organizations to protect their business secrets, Paulius believes that information security must help businesses achieve goals but not vice versa.

By Andrew Whitelaw | Source: CBOT, ASX, Trade
There is no denying that the Australian wheat market is well and truly in the doldrums, with prices looking increasingly unattractive. The past will not always tell us what will happen in the future, but it can provide an insight into when prices tend to rise or fall throughout the year. In this analysis we will examine the price movements in CBOT, ASX basis and Melbourne wheat.
The chart in figure 1 displays the monthly average price for CBOT wheat from the period 2005-present. In this chart we can see that the long term average price for CBOT wheat sits at around 600c/bu. However, since mid-2014, the market has drifted substantially below 600c. When we look throughout the year it is apparent that the biggest range in price tends to occur within the Feb-Mar period. This makes sense as the market watches the northern hemisphere crop develop, and at this point has an indication on whether it's a good or bad crop.
At an Australian level we start to look at the ASX basis to CBOT, or the premium or discount to CBOT. In figure 2, we can see that average basis level from 2005-present sits between $25 and $35. The average basis level tends to increase around the end of seeding time, which relates to both potential concerns about the crop and traders taking cover early. As would be expected basis levels can have a wide range during harvest, dependent on the volume of crop available and grower selling rates.
In figure 3 we examine the Melbourne prices for ASW. The price has currently creeped below the average 2005-present. The range during the early part of the year can be wide, which closely follows CBOT prices. The average price over the year has tended to rise at harvest time, with the range being at its narrowest during the period September/November.
Looking forward the picture does not look all that promising for wheat in the medium term, with the northern hemisphere crop having made it through to the middle of March with little in the way of issues developing. This may not be the news growers want to hear. However, it is what it is and planning is required to adequately deal with this situation.
On the 4th April, Mecardo will be joined by industry leaders in the grain trade to discuss options for developing a marketing strategy for a low priced environment. This online webinar is free of charge, and gives you the opportunity gain some additional insight into the market and ask any questions.
We are more than halfway through March and it looks increasingly like there will be limited issues to the global crop. The lack of any bad news from the northern hemisphere will likely lead to CBOT continuing to trade sideways between now and mid-year.
At a local level there is still a substantial amount of wheat left unsold from the 15/16 harvest, with likely increased selling prior to seeding, there could be pressure on local prices due to a weakening of basis levels.

|Breakage Guarantee: If the rod you purchased breaks or gets messed up in any way, we will give you a 50% discount on any rod of the same price or lower.This guarantee applies even if it's not from a manufacturing defect (manufacturer's warranty takes care of that), this guarantee applies to any scenario, including accidents, misuse of the rod, or any possible reason you can think of.
The Onyx Spey Rod (12'4", 5 wt) by Beulah is your best choice if you are going to fish a variety of lines for Summer Steelhead, Half Pounders, Rainbows, Small and Large Mouth Bass.
The Beulah Onyx 12'4" 5 wt. Spey rod is the perfect light summer steelhead and trophy trout spey rod. Light enough in power to have fun, strong enough to handle windy days that take most 5 weight spey rods out of the game. This light spey casts effortlessly and can cover as much water as most 13'-14' rods. Beulah Onyx Spey rods are constructed using state of the art IM8 Silica Nano Matrix (SNM) resin and a blend of high modulus IM8 graphite, and come detailed with a refined custom look including maple burl reel seat, four-color thread wraps, and select Portuguese cork/cork burls.
Onyx Spey (12'4",5 wt) Rod by Beulah Features:
- The Reel Seat: Custom design nickel plating over anodized aluminum with titanium finish hardware, and a stabilized maple burl wood insert.
- The Stripping Guides: These rods contain the highest quality components. Solid titanium, Amtac Titan ring lock guides, are inert in salt water, making them corrosion proof. Titanium is flexible, as well, allowing guide feet to bend with the rod blank, eliminating dead spots and resulting in a smoother more accurate cast.
- The Cork: AAAA select cork rings are used on the grip as well as on the composite caps for added strength.
- IM8 Silica Nano Matrix (SNM) resin: this is truly a game changer that bends the rules of carbon fiber composites. The tiny, spherical nanoparticles create such a strong bond between the carbon fibers that rod stress is more evenly dissipated. This leads to a significantly stronger, more durable and more flexible rod. By improving strength and sensitivity, IM8 Silica Nano Matrix (SNM) resin gives you performance when it counts.

I've served almost one term (two years) on a Condominium Board. The first year I was the Secretary. I took minutes, signed papers, etc.
The second year (this year) I have been Treasurer. It's been a lot of work, a volunteer position that requires diligence. We are done with the Budget. This is because I made a schedule in advance with the General Manager, and then we rammed that schedule. Plus there is a very talented member of this board who understands budgets but cannot serve as an Officer. So I am the Officer. My job is to make sure the talented people get what they need to have, and nobody steps on them in the middle or harasses them in the end. I take the flak. I'm very good with flak, so this works out.
We are having a rate increase. I have to explain this to our electorate. We have done all kinds of due diligence on this budget, but it is what it is. We haven't raised fees very much for years. No one ever wants them raised, including me. But this is the year they go up, under my watch. The belt won't tighten any more.
So, in a one-bedroom condominium unit, you get your utilities paid (ALL of them: trash, gas, electric, water, antenna-okay, not cable, internet or phone), someone to watch the front door and sort your mail, take care of the pipes and emergency generator, call the laundromat people when the washers aren't working, etc etc etc.
My current monthly fee for this is $312.00 per month. When we raise fees 8%, I will be paying an additional $25.00 a month. This still seems cheap to me. One check, once a month: no hassle, all taken care of. We're already saving for the roof repair that comes in twenty or so years. Condominium Associations are a great idea.
The "Q & A Meeting of the Budget" will be at 7 tomorrow. It was my idea in the first place, because I am all about transparency when people have to spend their money. For some reason, I am happy about this but not thrilled, if you know what I mean.
I'm running for office again. Silly me. But I believe I've done a good job. And it's interesting, also wise, to check more carefully and be involved in your investments. By serving on the Board, I understand how things are going with the primary investment of my life.

There is no flower quite as charming as the rose. Why not bring the beauty of the rose into your bed room with an imported Antique Rose Quilt for your bed. You will feel as if you are oversleeping a peaceful yard fulled of roses in their finest blooms. This bedspread is offered in many sizes, and consists of 1 pillow sham with twin size, 2 pillow shams with the purchase of larger sized bedspreads. This bedspread is likewise made from 100 percent cotton that is machine washable.
Nightstands have been a timeless component of bedroom furniture for generations. It is a furniture piece that holds your evening time basics like a glass of water and a light for late evening reading. Nightstands are offered in different designs and product; select one that matches the general design of the bedroom. A laid-back wooden Country design nightstand is ideal if you wish to provide your bedroom an unwinded look. Nightstands with glass table tops and metal frameworks look classic and versatile. Mahogany nightstands are really preferred for their blend of traditional and modern designs.
Bedroom furnishings such as the dresser or bedside tables can be provided a distressed finish to add to the rustic charm of the room. Ornamental accessories like antler chandeliers and wrought iron candleholders are ideal for producing rustic bedroom decor. Draw attention to architectural details like hardwood floorings, vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls. If you have a bare board flooring, it can be discolored in a light finish. Have the floorings waxed and polished so they keep their natural charm. Decorate with rugs in warm tones to highlight charm of the flooring. If there's a fireplace in the bedroom, it can be doned with natural stone or exposed brick to offer the room a rustic charm. The idea is to have one architectural focus in the room and build the rustic bedroom style around it.
Platform beds are not that inexpensive however they are worth their rates. Make a smart choice and buy a platform bed. Hardwood product are the finest particularly in a situation where the bed will have to accommodate lots of people who have higher weights.
They are made of really dense solid viscoelastic memory foam and hence provide the bearer of a firm mattress and the comfort of a really soft mattress. Both the memory foam bed mattress and mattress pads are created to completely break down under the weight of the body. They are highly effective in distributing body weight equally over the mattress or mattress pad.

Scenario: You have been hired as the new safety manager for a machine shop operation. During the first few weeks, you are out on the plant floor with the maintenance manager reviewing the company's energy control program. You observe a maintenance person perform some servicing work on a piece of machinery. You notice the lock he applies to the energy isolating device is a combination lock and not a keyed lock. You ask the maintenance manager about this. To your surprise, he states that all their lockout locks are a combination lock and the previous safety manager had no problem with this and in fact supported the practice.
Question: Is the maintenance manager correct in his belief that a combination lock is acceptable for lockout/tagout? Or, is the company going to need to replace all the combination locks with keyed type locks and train all the employees about this change?
Answer: If you read the definitions in 1910.147 (b), you will see the following: Lockout device. A device that utilizes a positive means such as a lock, either key or combination type, to hold an energy isolating device in the safe position and prevent the energizing of a machine or equipment. Included are blank flanges and bolted slip blinds.
So why would you want to use a combination lock vs. a keyed lock? One benefit of using a combination lock is that you don't have to worry about losing the key for the lock. Also less challenge of having to carry more keys.
Further thoughts: Just like keyed locks, only one person should be able to open the lock. Which means only one person should know the combination to that lock and that is the owner of that lock.
Can you use Lockout Locks for other purposes?

With over 60 courses in our Workforce Induction category, you're likely to find what you're looking for as a starter in a new industry (or even if you're looking to refresh your knowledge and skills).
You can hone in on a specific industry or role (including the food industry, roles within the health, social or childcare space, or roles involving data protection and security) for relevant classes, or browse the rest of our courses for some more general knowledge about how best to conduct yourself in the workplace, both individually and around others.
Many of our courses listed will help to ensure you're adhering to all the rules and guidelines as an employee, and also make sure you are aware of how to help yourself and others in different types of situations. As an employee, you're bound to encounter problems you're not exactly sure how to solve – and we're hoping you'll learn them here through our short, engaging e-training courses.
For those preparing to work in the food industry, we offer a variety of Food Safety and Hygiene courses to ensure you're ready to go. Whether working in a restaurant, hotel, cafe, bar or running a catering business of your own, your first order of business should be to understand how to handle food properly in order to become a trusted source for your customers. With our selection of five courses, you'll be able to cover all the bases needed to succeed within the food industry, including food prep, safety, hygiene or allergies.
For those working as part of a health and social care team, we recommend taking a look at some of specific courses within this category to make sure you're doing everything you can to be an exceptional member of staff and take care of your patients as best you can. Whether you're a carer in domiciliary settings, in a care home, or a manager of care providers – these courses will be important for you to take on. Family members who want to understand more about the safe handling or medication of those they're taking care of will also find good value in a few of our Health & Safety courses.
Safeguarding Children and Safeguarding Adults are another two categories of courses useful for those working regularly with adults and children who find themselves in vulnerable or high-risk situations. While many of these courses will be useful for working with these individuals daily, they also contain useful information for parents, or those looking to help out a family member or friend in need.
Regardless of what industry you're currently working in (and the day-to-day responsibilities that come with it), we think there's great value in getting some basic training under your belt regarding health and safety, as well as learning about different laws within the workplace and issues that might arise with you or your peers.
It's always good to be prepared and informed, and we're hoping a few of our e-training courses will provide the guidance you need to feel confident and secure in the workplace.

I'm ushered past reception at Motor Distributors Limited's HQ on Dublin's Naas Road by the company's heritage curator, Denis Dowdall. He leads me along the corridors of the preserved 1940s building to a room that he informs me was once a Volkswagen showroom. He unlocks the door and my jaw drops.
"You'd be fairly unique if your first word wasn't wow," he tells me.
Inside the room is an impeccable and gleaming collection of about two-dozen classic cars. The eye is immediately drawn to the silver, 1950s Mercedes 300SL Gullwing in the centre of the room.
"People love that one because of its looks. They wouldn't like it so much if they drove it."
The collection has been lovingly curated over the years by Denis and consists almost entirely of Mercedes-Benz cars, from a replica of Karl Benz's 1885 Patent Motorwagen, all through the company's history, including one example of every SL car made, from the Gullwing, through the 1960s Pagoda to the Bobby Ewing SL of the '70s and '80s up until the R129 of the 1990s.
But it isn't the Gullwing that I'm here to see. Nor is it IK-52, the 1898 Benz Velo that was the first car registered in Ireland. Nor indeed, the massive, imposing 1930s 540K or the 1960s 600 Grosser adored by dictators worldwide.
I'm here to see a pair of much more prosaic cars, one of which isn't even a Mercedes. In the corner sits an unblemished and unregistered green, 1977 Volkswagen Beetle. Nearby is another '77 car, a beige Mercedes 220 saloon. These represent important landmarks in Irish motoring history given that, respectively, they are the last Volkswagen and the last Mercedes built in Ireland.
Wait, hold on a minute - cars made in Ireland? We all know of DeLorean in Belfast and many probably remember the Ford plant in Cork, but Volkswagen and Mercedes? That's right, not to mention over fifty other manufacturers from Adler and Alfa Romeo right through Chrysler, Mazda and Toyota to Wartburg, Willys and Wolseley. It's a fascinating story outlined in Bob Montgomery's new book "Motor Assembly in Ireland", which shines a light on a now largely-forgotten story of a time where most of the cars on Irish roads were built here.
In the early days of the Irish Free State, the economy was a mess that produced cows, Guinness and little else. Even tourism hadn't taken off. In 1933, a car dealer, FM Summerfield went to the Minister of Industry and Commerce, Seán Lemass, with a proposal - instead of importing fully-built cars from abroad, why not bring in the major parts and assemble them in Ireland? This wasn't a madcap idea; Summerfield argued (and Lemass agreed) that this kind of an operation would not only provide Irish jobs, but also stimulate ancillary industries and give the country the beginnings of an industrial base. The cars would be imported to Ireland in CKD (Completely Knocked Down) form, made up of, for example, the engine, body and chassis, whilst other parts of the cars like tyres, batteries, seats, springs and window-glass would be made locally. With Irish-assembled cars subject to a much lower level of taxation than imported Fully Built Up cars, it was an idea that took off in a way that nobody could have expected.
Within just a few years, the industry was booming. For the most part, it was a smooth operation, though for some manufacturers, the CKD process was completely alien - Packard cars, for example, had to be fully-assembled in Detroit, completely dismantled, shipped to Ireland and entirely reassembled again. World War II was a trying time for the assemblers, as supplies, not just of cars, but of fuel, dried-up. Nevertheless, when peace came, the whole business took-off again, bigger than ever before.
Though the MDL collection has the last Beetle assembled in Ireland, the first, a 1950 model, resides in the Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg, Germany. It's not just significant from an Irish perspective - it was the first VW assembled outside of Germany and, as such, was the beginning of the company's worldwide success. Stephen O'Flaherty, the Waterford man who founded MDL and had the Irish franchise for Willys jeeps and Nash cars, bought the Volkswagen franchise in 1950 and soon started assembling Beetles in Ballsbridge, before later moving out to the Naas Road. Denis points to the ceiling of the Beetle assembly line in a photo he shows me. I look up - we're standing in the same place.
O'Flaherty's success was repeated by other companies and the industry went on to employ thousands countrywide. All over Dublin, factories were at full-steam - Austins and Rovers made by Lincoln & Nolan in Dublin's docklands; Morris Minors pouring out of Brittain's in Portobello; Hillmans and Chryslers made by Rootes in Santry. Cork was at it too - Ford at the Marina, while Skoda, Studebaker and even DKW, the precursors to Audi, were made in Ballincollig where an Aldi now stands. Aside from a Renault operation in Wexford and Heinkel in Dundalk, major assembly didn't take place outside Dublin and Cork, but so successful was Lemass and Summerfield's model that Australia adopted a similar system. And it wasn't just Irish cars for Irish people either. Over 50,000 Cork-made Fords were sent abroad. Heinkel bubble-cars were exported as far afield as Argentina and when Chrysler ended UK production of the Hillman Hunter in 1976, the Irish plant in Santry took over until the Hunter was axed in 1979.
As the '70s dawned, however, there were storm clouds on the horizon. Tariff systems weren't compatible with the Common Market that Ireland joined in 1973 and it was agreed to end the CKD system by 1984. Industrial unrest in Britain didn't help either. In the late '60s, a quarter of all cars sold in Ireland were made by BMC, later British Leyland, which produced Austin, Morris, Jaguar, Rover, MG, Riley and Wolseley (usually quite badly). When Ireland's Morris assemblers Brittain's merged with Austin assemblers Lincoln & Nolan in 1966, the result was an Irish behemoth called BLN with 1,200 workers and 40 products on the books. The merger was a failure, though Brittain's was left with the Leyland franchise, which the company withdrew in 1974 leading to the loss of 1,000 jobs.
For a while, it wasn't all bad news. After the loss of Leyland, Brittain's looked for and found a new company to partner with - a Japanese firm called Datsun - and the Datsun 1200 saloon became the first Japanese car to be built or sold in Ireland. Soon after Toyota started, and with the loss in 1977 of Volkswagen and Mercedes, MDL started making Mazdas. The Irish loved these new Japanese cars, which were far more reliable than the British models they had been used to and featured equipment like radios, not as optional extras, but as standard.
Alas, despite the industry finding a new lease of life in its declining years, the end finally came in 1984 when the last Irish-assembled car, a Mazda 323, rolled off the MDL production line. The decline of Ireland's auto industry couldn't have come at a worse time. Jobs were scarce in the middle of a worldwide recession and newly-unemployed industrial workers faced very grim prospects. Even the Irish exporting factories weren't competitive. Ford's Belgian plant was producing 6,000 cars a week whereas Cork's Marina factory was putting out just 400. When the last Sierra rolled off the Cork production line in 1984, not only were 850 Ford jobs lost, but the major tyre supplier to the Irish motor industry, Dunlop, closed too, dealing a body blow that the city wouldn't recover from for over a decade.
This is barely an overview of the extraordinary story that Bob Montgomery tells in his new book. He breaks the narrative down marque by marque from Adler to Wolseley and it represents a fine piece of research. Recent history is often the most difficult to explore as so much relies on memories and, given our scant regard for industrial heritage in Ireland, much of the information can't have been easy to come by. Though as the curator of the Royal Irish Automobile Club's archive, Montgomery is better-placed than most to do it. It comes at an important time too - as the years march on, memories are fading and sadly, this might be the last chance to capture the stories from the people who know them best.
The book is illustrated with fine photographs spanning the whole five decades and ads for Irish-built cars are a wonderful, and often amusing time-capsule, like the 1936 blurb from McCairns Motors ("Quality Up, Prices Down!") advertising the Vauxhall 12 from £298. Though the book is heavy on numbers, there's still a satisfying and meticulously researched narrative. Registration statistics on the various companies are a reasonably good guide to how many of a particular make were produced in a given year and even some of the appendices make fascinating reading to car nerds (12,213 Fords registered in Ireland in 1984; 9,115 Toyotas, 7 Rolls-Royces, 7 Porsches and 4 Reliants!). Whilst yes, the book will mainly appeal to Irish motor enthusiasts, there's a lot here for those with a keen interest in social and industrial history too and this looks like it's going to be the definitive book on the subject for quite some time.
"Motor Assembly in Ireland" by Bob Montgomery is available in all good bookshops now.

Tottenham Hotspur FC
I met this really kinky girl last night. 'Humiliate me,' she said … So I bought her a Tottenham shirt
What's the difference between Bigfoot and the Spurs defence? Bigfoot has been spotted several times.
"I was playing Scrabble and had enough letters to make 'Tottenham Hotspur Football Club'. I was gutted when I found out it was only worth two points."
Tesco are releasing new Oxo cubes in Spurs colours. Customers are told to look out for laughing stocks.
I just went down to the newsagents and bought Tottenham Hotspur magazine. Thank goodness they had porn mags to hide it in.
A man was found dead floating in the Thames , wearing a blond wig, full make-up, bra, knickers, suspenders and a Spurs shirt. Before informing the next of kin the police removed the Spurs shirt to save the family embarrassment.
Did you hear that Juande Ramos was clocked doing 169mph on the M1 coming back from Stoke? Apparently he was just so desperate for three points
What's the difference between Juande Ramos and a cowboy? A cowboy wears Spurs on his boots whereas Ramos is a crap manager.
What does THFC stand for? Tottenham Heading For the Championship.

Bite of the Week is a weekly feature showcasing an exceptional meal or dish, curated by The Growler and supported by our underwriter, Bite Squad.
The hard-hustling Wadi Brothers (Sameh and Saed) are at it again. After strong roll-outs of Saffron (R.I.P.), World Street Kitchen, and Grand Catch, the brothers and their crew have taken over the old Dave's Popcorn space on 38th and Cedar in Minneapolis and transformed it into a second outpost of Milkjam, their popular ice cream shop.
Like Milkjam, Milkjam #2 (unofficially and charmingly known as Lil Jam) serves up a delicious assortment of ice creams, including floats, shakes, sundaes, and the Glam Doll donut-clad Jam Bun ice cream sandwich. Unlike Milkjam, you can get some savory eats, too: hot dogs, a holdover from and tribute to Dave's. The dogs are simple: boiled (not grill-charred) but high quality with a determined snap to their casings. They're served on plain hot dog buns, soft and pliable, nothing fancy or ambitious. So far, so basic. Then come the toppings: everything from kimchi to spicy pickled veg and beer cheese sauce.
They're dressed up but not implausibly so—every combination makes sense, and on the two dogs we tried, both kits of toppings really worked. Our favorite (by just a smidge) was the Oki Dog, an okonomiyaki-inspired dog topped with Japanese mayo, tempura flakes, seaweed, pickled daikon, and okonomiyaki sauce, an almost BBQ-like condiment that brings sweetness and savory depth. The crunch of the tempura flakes and the richness of the sauces were both fine counterpoints to the snap of the dog and the bright, acid flavor of the daikon. This is a simple dish that nonetheless has it all: earthiness, sweetness, sharpness, crunch, saltiness, and chew. This $6.50 dog is a small delivery vehicle that hauls a lot of flavor.
The Dish: Oki Dog, $6.50
The Place: Milkjam's Second Location (Lil Jam)
The Reason: It's a low-key, effortless, breezy cultural mashup

The louvers in Ecolegno composite wood are fixed or adjustable and are designed to protect building facades and outdoor areas from the sun. The adjustable options give constant light to environments and are based on a Venetian-blind design.
Louversare very useful to modulate sunlight and give rooms the light desired and can be adjusted either manually or electrically. If they are interconnected, powered louvers can be adjusted remotely or even programmed using modern smart systems.
Not only that but it only takes a few hours to install them. They give a real boost to traditional thermal insulation systems. Ecolegno composite wood boards have excellent engineering performance and their modular installation makes them quick and easy to replace.
Saimex makes them in composite wood. Composite wood is a unique composition of wood fibre, wood flour and the same high-density polymer used in food packaging, so they are highly recyclable.
Louver made of composite wood are a particular versatile product which fits to every type of landscape, but, above all, meets everyone's needs. Ecolegno sunshade barriers are a product capable of giving prestige and quality design to all your projects.
Choosing barriers it means having a product which requires no active maintenance and, therefore, maintenance costs drop significantly, Furthermore they are weatherproof and, especially, do not cool down or overheat in relation to the outdoor temperature.
The wood fibre in the composition is sourced from FSC-certified forests. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international non-profit organisation established to promote responsible management of the world's forests.
Four million tonnes of wood is currently burnt in landfills; that's 5 million trees that could have been reused and upcycled into something new. The fibres are processed to high quality standards to protect them from fungus, mould and mildew.

This may seem like a no-brainer question, but just how well do you know the services you offer? If you have a large insurance agency, you may offer many services that vary per policy sold. Do you have a complete grasp on all of those services and can explain them in detail to a customer who asks about them? If the answer is no, you need to do your homework.
You cannot successfully sell complex goods, such as insurance policies, without also offering service on those policies, whether that be handling a claim or explaining what is and is not covered. In other words, you need to know each policy and all your services intimately to allow you to answer any questions promptly and thoroughly.
People who want to buy insurance from you need to know that you know what you are doing. If you cannot explain your services or are vague about what you offer, they are going to notice, and you stand a good chance of losing a sale.
Never assume you know all there is to know about every policy. If you sell a policy, make sure you read it, study it, talk about it, know everything there is to know about it and be able to expertly handle any questions. The growth of your business depends on it.

O&O ShutUp10
O&O ShutUp10 allows you to have full control over which comfort functions under Windows 10 you wish to use, and you decide when the passing on of your data goes too far.
Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated.
O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software.
This is one of the many Windows 10 privacy applications that have been forced into production because of people's valid concerns over Microsoft Windows 10 OS privacy intrusions. I particularly like this one because it is from a known reputable company and appears to be updated often.
