We have been working with silver and gold for more than two decades.
Since 2017 we have expanded our business by adding a new brand of exclusively-designed bracelets, alongside our traditional renowned Florentine products, available world-wide through our online shop.
Thanks to an overwhelmingly positive customer response, we have decided to make the Sec of Florence bracelets available offline throughout the world in selected stores.
When designing our bracelets, we focus on quality, emphasizing the Made in Italy or, more precisely, the Made in Florence craftsmanship.
It's no coincidence that our motto is #FromFlorenceWithAmore: we put all our passion into selecting the finest raw materials for our products from the city of our birth, Florence.
It's also not a coincidence, that the most important symbol in our collection is the Fleur the Lis, the symbol of Florence: which means you can always carry the magic of this unique city with you, where ever you go. Other symbols followed this, linked to a particular mood or a feeling: the heart and the infinity symbol, the seafaring knot and the anchor, the Hand of Fatima to name but a few. All the bracelets are completely customizable: you can choose silver, black silver, gold or rose gold finish as well as the color of the bracelet in leather or marine rope. All products are 100% hand-made in Italy with italian raw materials.
Would you like to offer your customers the chance to buy Sec Of Florence bracelets in your store?

Each shipment of Blue Tara quartz has been different, yet similar in energy and this Spirit epitomizes the last of the three shipments I have received! The blue color within the quartz comes from riebeckite inclusions and this wonderful cluster has a variety of expression with steel-blue-gray blended with ice blue in her crystals and blue sand in crystal grottos and her terminated base! In face, it was hard to show with the camera but the base is elestial and slightly curved as is her large, main crystal! The crystals show growth-interference from the riebeckite and some have curious silhouettes with this shaping. They splay out in typical starburst fashion and provide so many loupe-worthy areas for exploration! She is a nice altar size at 8.4 oz and 5.25" by 3.4" by 2.2" and is in excellent condition!
In Tibetan tradition, there is a Green Tara and a White Tara with Green Tara protecting Earth and White Tara protecting long life and peace. Tara, whose name means "star", is further the equivalent of a female Buddha. Now, this crystal is blue not green, and she feels like a different aspect of Earth – the oceans. Earth is more ocean than land, so it's particularly suiting that Blue Tara also represents the Earth. And further, her ice blue color brings in the energies of the Arctic regions. Beyond her other energies, she offers to her Keeper a wonderful way to work with the energies of the Earth and contribute to the repair of the damage humans have done.
Cradle this Spirit with your hands and immediately, you will feel yourself surrounded by a halo of energy and there will be a fragrance, somewhat like lily-of-the-valley; sweet, clear and heady. In her is love and compassion, understanding and knowing. She clears away pretense and pain, opening your heart and your mind to her protection and guidance. It is said that Green Tara offered protection to those incarcerated during the Chinese occupation of Tibet. Blue Tara offers protection to the Oceans and Oceanic Ice and those born of the Water Signs. The Celts also have a Tara, the Fins have Tar, the Egyptians, Ishtar and the Cheyenne have Star Woman - all Tara. She is all cultures, all races and all women. Work with her in celebration of peace, protection and all that is life and life-giving – she is astounding!

At MOD we are dedicated to compiling the best of the best assistants across the US. We search for qualified and eager individuals that LOVE to help people. All of the MOD Assistants are fully for professional liability and each assistant also completes a full background check before working with any client.
All of our assistants also have access to technology that allows them to track time, expenses and notes that are easily accessible to you.
All of our assistants have worked previously in administration or care-taking roles. They also go through our five-point hiring process which includes a full background check and have two full weeks of training before taking on clients of their own.
We assign assistants based on four criteria: skill set, location, schedule and personality. We want to make sure that your assistant has the skills necessary to do the job and works well with you. That is why we ask you so many questions during the on boarding process!
Yes, you can. However, please be aware that the assistant you request may not be available during your requested times or location.
We currently have assistants available to work with clients in person in Denver, CO and Pittsburgh, PA. We also have virtual assistants that can work with clients nationwide.
You and your assistant will set your schedule together. Our normal business hours are from 8 AM – 8 PM EST. We ask that you pick blocks of time that your assistant will work with you so they are able to take on additional clients. The Team Lead in your market will help with this process during the on boarding telephone call.
We suggest that you start small when establishing a new relationship with an assistant. This enables you and your assistant to get to know each other, establish a workflow and expectations. Having a lengthly, urgent' list from day one usually results in missed deadlines and frustration for both parties.
Most of our assistants have extensive backgrounds with many skills in addition to those listed in core services. If you have a task outside of the list, ask your assistant if they feel qualified to handle it. If they do not, they will be happy to locate someone for you to handle it – whether inside or outside the MOD organization.
At this time we do not provide: child care services or transportation, handyman services, or medical care services.
All of our assistants are paid full wages and not paid at a lower wage like a waitress, they are not relying on tips for income. But if an assistant does an over the top job and you would like to thank them through a tip, it would be very kind of you to do so.
After the first week with your assistant, we will follow up to see how things are going. If you are not satisfied with the service for any reason, we will find a replacement assistant at no charge. As you continue with your assistant, you are always free to reach out to us regarding any issues.
You can request a copy of your assistant's background check at any time. There is a $50 fee for the copy, please contact us at 303-957-7149 or firstname.lastname@example.com to request.
We ask for 24 hours notice to cancel any particular appointment. If less than 24 hours is given, you will be billed 50% of the scheduled time in order to pay your assistant for time they set aside for you.
Recurring clients are those who need help from their assistant on a consistent basis. Recurring clients are guaranteed their tasks will be completed by the same assistant each week and enjoy a lower hourly rate. There is a two hour per week minimum for recurring clients as well as an initial 60 day commitment, with a 2 week cancelation policy following those 60 days.
No, you do not. You can choose to spread those hours throughout the week. We have a minimum of 2 hours per week for recurring clients as well as a 1 hour minimum for onsite visits.
As a recurring client, the minimum billing is two hours per week. If you are consistently under that two hour minimum, per our client agreement, your assistant may add time to your invoice to meet that minimum.
If you don't believe you have enough weekly tasks to meet that minimum, we do offer our 'Project Rate' in which there are no weekly minimums. During your initial call with your MOD Team Lead, we will discuss what rate best fits your needs.
For vacations or circumstances that arise where you will not need your assistant's services, please let us know ahead of time so you will not be billed the 2 hour minimum.
On your weekly invoice, your assistant will track all time worked for you and note what projects / tasks they worked on and completed.
If you need to cancel or suspend your service at any time, we ask that you give two weeks notice in order to give your assistant adequate time to find replacement work. Simply let your assistant and MOD Team Lead know that you will be suspending service. If a negative situation arises with your assistant and you would like to handle it directly with MOD, please contact us at 303-957-7149 or email@example.com.
If you love working with your assistant and want to offer them a full-time position, that is great! If your assistant accepts that offer, we require a $1,500 referral fee for the placement.
All clients are billed weekly, on Mondays, for the time used the previous week (Monday-Sunday). We require a credit card on file to charge weekly.

I booked this cruise on a whim because it had a single rate of around $700 for a week cruise and I thought that included the beverage package. After looking into it I realised that my cabin category didn't include the drink package so upgraded to that. With the new fare, the gratuities, the 20% for the drink package and the taxes, it came to over $1,400. I would have canceled except for Norwegian's strict cancelation policy. I thought, oh well, I'll just go. I had not been on Norwegian since the Norway almost 20 years ago and was interested to see how it was now. The extensive dry-dock done in late 2018 made the ship much more to my liking since I have mostly cruised on Celebrity. In fact, my favourite ship of all my 22 cruises was the Millennium so since the Jewel was about the same size I thought I might like it. I arrived at the port about 12:30 pm and it looked pretty crowded. I was pleased at how fast it actually went after I got in line and I was on the ship by 1 pm! My first impression was of the Crystal Atrium. Although attractive, a 2 deck high atrium is not exactly impressive and it was mobbed with people. The cabins were ready by 1:30 and when I checked out my inside cabin, 4579, it was fine, tiny, but fine. I was disappointed that I never actually met my cabin steward though. I don't really like only having the bed as a place to sit but since I was alone in the cabin I used one as a sofa and one as a bed. As others have pointed out, the toilet is as an awkward angle which made you sit on it sideways. The shower, with a door, was probably the nicest I have ever had though. My impressions of the ship were mostly positive and I liked the decor. I found the Garden Cafe to be extremely chaotic though and I never once ate there. I did find the Great Outdoors at the back of the ship to be delightful and never had a problem getting a table and used the small buffet out there. The public rooms were attractive but I didn't like the layout of the ship without a circular rotation possible on most decks. I found the food to be good to excellent and enjoyed 4 nights of specialty dining, which was outstanding. I thought the entertainment was of high quality too with excellent singers and dancers. I was a tad concerned that with so many having the drink package that getting a drink might be an issue. I have to say that I never once had a problem getting a drink and found the bar staff to be excellent. I didn't do this cruise for the ports as I have sailed this same itinerary twice before already and didn't get off the ship. I usually like to enjoy a bit of less crowded, quieter time while everyone is off on shore excursions but I was surprised at how many people didn't get off the ship. The muster drill was the best ever and held in Le Bistro for me. No need to wear the life jackets and we could sit down through the whole thing in air-conditioning. My main complaint, which won't affect many people, is as a smoker, they only designate a small portion of the Pit Stop for smokers. It was always mobbed but since I vape I could sit at the railing overlooking the pool which was much nicer. The only other smoking area besides the casino was on deck 7 port side outside. It was less crowded but with almost no seating. Th cruise was a party atmosphere which was fun and I met many delightful people from all over the world. I would consider cruising with Norwegian again but will probably stick with Celebrity or Royal Caribbean in the future. Read Less

View this post on Instagram
Imagine my surprise when I saw Richard Prince tweet a 6ft inkjet printed picture of a screenshot of an Instagram post of mine hanging up in my hometown of Detroit at MOCAD. I didn't consent to my face hanging in this art gallery. What Richard is doing is questionably legal, but even if something is legal and "starts a dialogue" it doesn't mean you should actually do it. Not all legal things are ethical. This, in my opinion, is a reckless, embarrassing, and uninformed critique of social media and public domain. This is appropriation artwork. This isn't progressive, this isn't even subversive. Maybe it was when he began doing this in 1977, but in 2019 it's tone deaf. I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. Part of the reason I take "sexy selfies" is because I am reclaiming my own sexualized image. To see my image on the walls of MOCAD feels as though a picture I've taken of myself to reclaim my sexual body is being used to violate me all over again. Given that millions of people are sexually assaulted each year, I imagine I'm not the only one who feels this work is a violation of boundaries on a much deeper level.
"Like many contemporary cultural institutions, MOCAD has always been a space for the playing out of disparate and conflicting ideas. We state in our mission that we fuel critical dialogue, we are proud of the critical and important work we are doing to present progressive and challenging artists and exhibitions for vast audiences. The works in the exhibition are not for sale, and are designed to prompt discussions about context, ownership, and originality—questions first asked in an institutional setting over 100 years ago by Marcel Duchamp, and more pressing than ever in our world of social media and big data. We invite audience/visitors to our free public programs to engage in the dialogue. MOCAD presents over 17 exhibitions and over 250 free public programs a year.
A talk by Brian Wallis on the work of Richard Prince will be held on Nov. 7 with a community dinner to follow, furthering the discussion. RSVP would be greatly appreciated.
The point of the exhibition is to speak about these issues of ownership and ask these questions. This is a very relevant discussion. Is social media empowering people or co-opting artistic production? Where do our expectations and perceptions around privacy and consent lead us when using social media? What are you consenting to when posting? Is all photography exploitive?
MOCAD respects the opinions of the community that it serves and artists that are exhibited and stands by their right to express themselves freely. With regard to the subject of the portrait, as soon as I learned of her concern I reached out and invited her to come and speak and share concerns. We met before the show opened to the public at the Museum. We asked if she wanted us to remove the work from the exhibition and at the time, she said that she did not want it taken down unless we removed all the works in the exhibition. MOCAD has no plans to censor the entire exhibition.
Anyone who undertakes a Richard Prince show understands that some visitors may have difficulty with the work. We invite their perspectives and further discussions about Richard's artwork."

Pep Rally
Friday, March 22
During the week of March 18th we held our annual spirit week for students to participate. Each day of the week consisted of different outfit choices for students, Monday was hoodie day, Tuesday was jersey day, Wednesday was a dress down day, Thursday was a throwback day, and Friday was school spirit day where each grade repped their own class colors. On Friday we also held our pep rally to bring in our spring break. Select students participated in a one legged relay race with a partner to see who crossed the finish line first. Students also had the opportunity to pie selected teachers in the face during the pep rally. To close out the pep rally students danced to music in the middle of the gym and exited the school to start their week long spring break.

How To Keep Energy Bills Low
By now, you have probably received you first utility bills of the summer. If your jaw dropped at the total, get ready for help.
Danny Lipford, host of "Today's Homeowner," visits The Early Show on Wednesday to share some practical advice.
One of the largest energy users in your home during the summer months is the air-conditioning system. Having the system serviced by a qualified cooling contractor will ensure that it is operating as efficiently as possible.
Here are Lipford's efficient cooling tips:
Change your air filter at least every few months and use a quality filter. The filter usually is in a filter grill on your hallway wall or ceiling. It is important to never block or restrict this grill so that the air conditioning system will receive an adequate intake of air.
It is also important to check ductwork for leaks. You pay a lot of money to cool your home, so you want to be sure that you are not cooling your attic or the crawlspace under your house as well.
Don't forget the filter in your room air conditioner. These filters also need to be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis. When choosing a room air conditioner or any appliance for your home, be sure to look for the ENERGY STAR® label that insures that you are getting the most energy-efficient model available.
The less air conditioning you use this summer, the better. Here are a few more tips:
- Install a programmable thermostat to automatically adjust your rooms to a higher temperature at night or when you are not home.
- Open windows and use portable fans or ceiling fans when possible. Mild air movement of only 1 mph can make you feel 3 to 4 degrees cooler.
- Install white window shades, drapes or blinds to reflect heat away from your home.
- Install a whole-house fan to pull air through your home and exhaust through the roof
Here is how you can seal the envelope of your home:
- Check the insulation in your attic to be sure that you have enough. If you can see the ceiling joists, you need to add additional insulation.
- Seal all cracks and gaps around windows, doors, plumbing pipes, etc.
- Consider installing an attic ladder cover.
- Check all weather-stripping and thresholds.
Other things to consider:
- Change incandescent bulbs to fluorescent bulbs. They burn cooler, longer and cheaper.
- Make sure that your fireplace damper is closed.
- Use your outdoor grill instead of your stove/oven.
- Plant trees and shrubs that will shade your windows.
- Wash only full loads of clothes and full loads of dishes.
The following are some products Lipford recommends:
"Filtrete" filters from 3M
It is the first-of-its kind refillable air filter that helps keep your air cleaner.
Suggested retail cost $14.99
Whisper Aire Whole-House Fan
Instead of running your air conditioner all the time, you can just turn this on and it will pull air and create a breeze in every room in the house that has a window. You only need one in the center part of the house.
Suggested retail cost $600
There is no insulation around the opening of the attic stairs and this tent completes sealing the envelope of the home by insulating the attic itself.
Suggested retail cost $129.95 - $149.95

The process of obtaining a small business loan is often categorized as "daunting" or "intimidating." This is largely because there are so many things someone can do wrong before applying for funding. One mistake can result in rejection, a hazardous partnership, or default. But if you can avoid these mistakes, you should have no trouble accessing the right small business loan and paying it back on time. Small business loans are all about preparation. The more time you spend preparing to apply, the more likely you are to find the program that's best for your needs. Yes, small business owners are notoriously busy. But the difference between the right small business loan and the wrong one can alter the course of your business's future. This process is more than deserving of your attention.
Here are 4 common mistakes people make when shopping for small business loans:
1. Asking For The Wrong Amount
Initial success can be a blessing and a curse for small businesses. When demand and revenue are on the rise, it's only natural to believe that they will continue to grow. You envision a bigger team, a new office space, or a series of bulk inventory orders. So, when speaking with financial institutions, you ask for a great deal of funding. Getting rejected is not the only risk at stake. If you are approved and your momentum fades, you could end up with significant working capital or human capital that is going unused.
Then there's the additional expenses associated with your new resources. Your team might need equipment, and you'll have to pay their salaries well before they start contributing to revenue. This could take weeks or even months. The real mistake here isn't asking for too much money or too little. It's simply being unrealistic about the future. All the momentum in the world should not distract you from reality. The only resources you should be concerned about are those that you can support with (nearly) 100% certainty.
2. Not Thinking About The Future
This is probably not the only time you're going to need additional business funding. You might need another small business loan for another substantial investment in a couple of years. Or, you might need a perpetual source of funds to help cover business expenses every few months. When researching financial institutions and products, think about your financial circumstances for the future.
If your business is prone to tumultuous cash flow, you might be better suited with a business line of credit than a traditional business term loan. The idea is to apply before you actually need the money. Once you are approved, you can then borrow from your credit line at any time. With a revolving business line of credit, your full balance becomes available again once it is paid back. So, instead of having to apply for loans over and over again, you can just keep on borrowing from your credit line.
3. Not Researching Enough Institutions
The research phase for small business loans refers primarily to financial institutions. If you can fulfill the basic requirements with flying colors, you'll be able to work with the most reputable options. Owners of smaller or younger businesses, on the other hand, might have to research a potential partner's reputation before making a commitment. Other factors to consider are customer service, whether your payment history will be reported to major credit bureaus, and the likelihood of accessing multiple rounds of funding. For example, you might choose an institution with slightly higher interest rates because once you pay off that first loan, you'll be immediately eligible for a second, larger round of funding with more advantageous terms.
4. Waiting Too Long To Apply
You may have noticed that the requirements for business loans have decreased as of late. This is due to the new standards for staying competitive in the small business world. Certain resources are too important to be put off, just like certain problems are too dangerous to ignore. Companies like United Capital Source were formed to help businesses act now. The application process is extremely quick, and you don't have to be in your peak sales season to be approved. There's no discrimination against younger and/or smaller businesses, even with poor or little credit history. As you can see, there are now less and less excuses for waiting too long to apply for funding.
So, if there's a resource you absolutely need or a problem that absolutely needs to be fixed, don't wait until you can afford to purchase or fix it yourself. Today's market demands that these decisions be made in increasingly shorter time frames. Thankfully, that's a lot easier to do now that there are so many solutions within reach.

Playspace is an invaluable and essential necessity for all artists to share their practice, connect, collaborate, learn and most of all to have a lot of fun without the pressure of time, space, finances or performance. It felt incredibly good and inspiring to just play with each other and get out of our comfort zone. I just wished Playspace was a weekly thing!" Playday participant
Playspace is Starcatchers' artist development programme for artists committed to working with or developing work for babies and young children.
We support artists across all artforms at different stages of their careers – from those interested in learning more about working with this age group to those who are experienced and want to develop their practice.
Through Playspace artists will access support, training and mentorship. They will have the opportunity to collaborate with other artists, share practice and hopefully find inspiration to push the boundaries and create art experiences for this age group and their parents and carers that are high quality and innovative.
Playspace is divided into the following three strands, each offering a range of opportunities:
Space to Play – provides artists with the time and space to come together to exchange and share ideas.
Space to Learn – provides training, support and mentorship. Training and development sessions focus on the range of policies and research that are shaping early years practice, as well as early child development and child protection.
Space to Inspire – We want to empower artists to push the boundaries of their artistic practice, innovate, collaborate and connect with others across the sector both in Scotland, and further afield.
Playspace has been developed in collaboration with artists working with this age group, Starcatchers' partners including Platform, Eden Court, and Aberdeen Performing Arts. A steering group will oversee development of the programme.
If you have any questions or would like to talk about any aspect of the programme please contact us on 0131 2902560 / firstname.lastname@example.com
Artists join us for our first online gathering to share thoughts, challenges, ideas & ways we can support each other during extraordinary times.
We have scheduled a Zoom session for 2.30pm, Friday 27th March 2020. Here is a link to the gathering: https://zoom.us/j/370926837
Everyone is welcome!

Common Sense Says
Nonstop violence, profanity, adult humor in super sequel.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that, like the original, Deadpool 2 is bloody, raunchy, violent, and filled with pop-culture references that may go over even some teens' heads. In other words, it's targeted specifically at older audiences. Expect tons of extremely graphic violence, much of which is close-up and very gory and gross: torture, decapitation, dismemberment, brutal hand-to-hand combat, and much, much more. Sympathetic characters die, and children are abused by authority figures. You'll hear "f--k" in nearly every scene, plus "s--t," "a--hole," "bitch," and a full range of other salty words. Adults also smoke, drink, and use drugs, and there are some sexual references, although fewer than in the first film (and there's no sexual nudity this time around -- just glimpses of a bare baby butt and quick-flash shot of baby genitals, played for humor). Despite all of this, the story does ultimately promote teamwork, collaboration, empathy, and believing that people, particularly kids, can change.

Yesterday went easy too easy to be exact. They said they would take her back at 8am for the biopsy. She went back at 8:10. This is almost unheard of in hospital time. We had an ultra sound scheduled for 3:40 and they were able to get it done at 11am. We were home by 5:30.
We got the results of everything late this afternoon. Her ultrasound was clear which meant no blockages, but the biopsy did show some mild rejection. The words "barely there" were even used.
So what does this mean...... Well it means they will increase her rejection medicine, and they will add a few more meds to our daily routine. One of them being a steroid. Since it was so mild we can manage it all from home for now. We will have repeat labs next week.
That's basically it. It's pretty simple, and it could have been so much worse. Sometimes when they find the rejection it can be moderate to severe which means multiple days in the hospital and IV steroids. So I'm thankful for the oral meds and being at home.
I'm also thankful for the prayers and support over the past couple days. Our friends and family have been once again more than amazing and we couldn't have done it without you.

Our lounge still contains all our bedroom furniture and other items that were stored in the bedroom as well as the pictures that were on the walls. Of course now we have new wallpaper I don't want to put anything up on the walls, at least not for a while, so I will package the pictures up and see if I can find somewhere to store them for a while.
I bought a big roll of bubble wrap the other week for wrapping my ebay sales in, but really disappointed with the quality. Almost as soon as you touch the bubbles the air disappears from them, they don't even pop! I will use this to wrap the pictures in and to use as extra packaging for parcels, but for anything fragile it is not really suitable so will have to get some more.
The last few days have seen some lovely blue skies and sunshine, although it has been cold. I've not been feeling the best. These train trips into London twice a week have exposed me to germs I wouldn't normally catch.
Today I cleaned the light shade that had been hanging in our main bedroom. It is dated, but it looks clean and tidy and has roses on it, so it will do. I still quite like it.
It will be a while yet before we can even think about decorating for Christmas... still not sure when the carpet will be fitted, so until then we just have to keep living with the mess. I do plan to try and go through some of the stuff this week though and see what I can 'sell, throw, giveaway, package up and keep'.
I plan to write my overseas Christmas cards in the next week - the final posting date is coming up soon. I had hoped to get some of my photographs made into cards, but just haven't had the enthusiasm, mojo, or whatever it is to get them done, so it will be going through my stash of cards instead. We have plenty so might as well use those first, plus it will save some money. Just got to remember where they were put!
The Sailor arrives home on Wednesday and I am looking forward to seeing him again, although this time he will be going to live in his own house and not stay here. Seems he has flown the nest. Although he hasn't lived here permanently for a few years, he always stays here when he is home on leave. It was strange changing his room round when he left in June. Although I have been sleeping in it since then, it was always his room. I guess now it really is my room.
The new guinea pig has arrived and he seems to be getting on well with Jay (Jeremy) which is good news. Now just got to think of a good name for him.

Customer Reviews
I bought it a size too large, but I don't even care- this is the softest thing I own, and I love it, and you can pry it from my cold dead body.
I bought a nightgown similar to this about 10 years ago from Skin for my Mother In Law. She still wears it, and says it's her all time favorite. I ordered two this time. One for her, and one for me. It's beautifully made, feminine, and has the extra lounge capability of a built in bra. Price may be daunting so some, but you pay for quality and attention to detail. I was told in my 20's that you invest in "pieces" to build a wardrobe. This is one of those pieces.

IVF Store
We have over 15 Shopify Apps integrated in to our store at any given time. Duoplane is the oil that keeps our store running at top efficiency. For the price and value this is our most valued partner. Customer service is critical when working with Shopify App partners and Duoplane is by far, the absolute best. We get very fast responses to our technical questions and every answer is exactly what we need, every time.
Our business started in April 2018 and from the very beginning, we were very satisfied with the assistance we received as a true start-up. Now that we are a much more advanced online business, Duoplane has been instrumental in our growth.
Bernal Beast
This is the first review I've written for any app on Shopify. After dealing with so many software integrations for my site, I've come to realize just how amazing Duoplane has been in comparison. Everything about their software just works as it should. Their support has been top-notch, Sina has answered and assisted with everything I've asked for.
If you need a Multi-Fulfillment Dropshipping app, then seriously, look no further. I can't give them enough stars.
ONYX Products™
This is THE app if you need to auto-send orders to many different fulfillers and in various formats. Sina has been excellent to work with and even helped us implement something that further optimized the shipping for goods that ship from our own warehouse. Highly recommend!

Friday night change I can believe in.
Recently, the webcast I watch on Friday nights went back to its roots as primarily an audiocast. This change included the return of one of the original hosts, a person calling himself Jack the Radio Guy.
Fan reaction to this change has been less than positive, to put it mildly. Personally, I'm fine with the change. I quite like Jack, because now both hosts, Jack and Jim "The Walrus" Choma, are guys I can honestly say I look up to and would like to be more like. Both are smart men with really good jobs and can make their points well.
Under the ZipperFish Live format, the cohost was often a guy calling himself Roach. I liked Roach, too, because it was kind of easy for me to play off him in the show's chat room. Of course, part of the reason for that was because Roach came across as something of an alcoholic, depressed version of myself. Even if that's not how he was in real life, that's how he came across on the show. In part because of this, the show had been largely video in nature, and to keep up, a viewer would have to watch as much as possible.
With this Talk Radio format that's being brought back, we have two hosts who are fairly sober during the show, though they do have drinks during the show. As a result, there are more audio-only clips and discussion that actually makes sense without having to rely on video as much. I like this because I can be doing other things while the show is on and not have to worry so much about missing something.
This is, of course, not to say that I particularly minded the video portions of ZFL. It was always interesting to see what the ladies of the View were up to during the week, or what various FOX News celebs were spouting off about. I just think I'm more fond of not having to watch the show like a hawk to keep up with what's going on.
I think if I had to choose which version of the show I like better, I'd have to say the Talk Radio version, simply because I'd like to be working on other things while I listen to the show. This is because I have a rather large pile of things built up on my desk, and having a little extra attention to give it while listening to something I enjoy is a good thing.
The show currently airs on its uStream channel on Friday nights at 10 PM Eastern out of Eastern Florida, USA. For samples, see also the archive of past shows beneath the "show information" section.

Distracted Driving
KFB loves Kentucky. That's why we want to help protect you against life's mishaps.
Welcome to Life'sBLUEPRINTS, where you'll find information that will help keep you and your loved ones safe and savvy – whether you're on the road or in your old Kentucky home.
What is distracted driving?
Today, the number of cellphones in the U.S. surpasses the country's population. And according to a study by AT&T, 70 percent of people admit to using those cellphones while driving.
Automakers' response to distracted driving
The auto industry has taken notice of distracted driving. Some tools have already been invented to curb the effects, while other technologies are quickly developing from budding ideas to larger-than-life innovations.
Combating distracted driving... with your phone?
Cellphone blocking technology removes the temptation of distracted driving altogether by prohibiting calls or texts while a vehicle is in motion.
Distracted driving has been around longer than you think
Early examples of distracted driving studies go back as far as 1963, when scientist John Senders took to the roads blindfolded – all in the name of research.
The Perfect Accident
Distracted driving is no laughing matter -- just ask Tareena Horton. On Valentine's Day in 2009, the Breckinridge County resident learned first-hand just how quickly an innocent distraction can turn into a life-altering event.

An Interview With the President
President Barack Obama talks with Scholastic News about 9/11, the Constitution, and more
The President poses with Topanga Sena and Jacob Schroeder after the interview. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)
It's not every day that students get to interview the President of the United States. But two Scholastic News Kid Reporters recently got the chance. Jacob Schroeder, 12, and Topanga Sena, 10, sat down with President Barack Obama for an exclusive back-to-school interview at the White House.
Here are a few of the questions that those Scholastic News Kid Reporters asked the President. For the complete interview on video, click here.
SCHOLASTIC NEWS: We are about to observe the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on 9/11. How would you discuss how that day changed our country with your daughters, Sasha and Malia, who are the same age as our readers?
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, I've talked to Malia and Sasha about that day. It was a tragic, tragic moment, I think, for all of us.
Since that time, I think we've made ourselves safer. We have made sure that it's much harder to get on a plane with a weapon. It's much more difficult to plant explosives. Our men and women in uniform have fought in Afghanistan to make sure that Al Qaeda—the folks who carried out the attack—would no longer [be able to] carry out these attacks.
I think it's important for us to realize that, as terrible as that day was, it brought America together and reminded us that we're all one people, and that each of us has a responsibility as citizens of the United States to try to make this country the best it can be.
SCHOLASTIC NEWS: Kids across America learn about the Constitution every September 17. Why is the Constitution important to kids today?
PRESIDENT OBAMA: It is an amazing document. When you think about our country, unlike most countries, we're not all of the same race or religion. We don't all come from the same places. Many of us are immigrants. But what holds us all together is a belief in certain ideals and certain values.
The Constitution really is what sets us apart by saying that every single person is treated with respect; every single individual has certain rights; and that the government has to follow certain rules in how it interacts with its citizens. So it sets out a model not only for our democracy, but also for how each of us has certain individual freedoms and certain rights that can't be broken.
SCHOLASTIC NEWS: When you were our age, what did you like to read?
PRESIDENT OBAMA: When I was your age, I think I was getting into The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, and stuff like that. I confess that I did read comic books as well. Spider-Man was one of my favorites. Then I read what I was assigned at school.
By the time I was Malia's age, I was starting to read more serious books, like To Kill a Mockingbird, that make you think a little bit more. They were not just adventure stories. They were also stories that taught me about social problems and about how people interact with each other.

Heimat: Vicissitudes and vitality of an inheritance
Dark light Houses. Sharp and troubled Houses. Disfigured and misshapened Houses. Acid burned drippings. Ebb and flow drowning all order, all foundation and seeming to associate the blindness of the world to the most intimate sightlessness. The idiosyncratic stroll is sought, where all thrill is interpreted as a sign of hope mingled with disappointment.

Monthly Archives: October 2013
Volter – The One
I'm thrilled to report that Volter is back with a new single, which is the first taste of the band's next full-length to be released some time next year. Last year's the band's debut, No Return, was on my best of 2012 list and if this new single represents the things to come, the new album will score high next year too. The One is a 60's pop gem with a killer garage guitar riff. Its b-side is a winner too with a sweet Beatlesque melody.
Go to Volter's Bandcamp and leave a little tip when you listen/download this single.

ARGENTINA: Zonaindie
Juani's involvement with music began during his teenage years and it hasn't stopped since. Songwriter, singer, musician, producer, cultural manager… you name it. In between his multiple projects (one of them being involved with Rosario's biggest independent label Planeta X), Juani managed to pull out a new solo album called La Paz Ciencia (a pun between the words "peace" and "science"), with songs that range from Argentine folk to pop and acoustic rock. Déjame Entrar is our favorite track but you can download the whole thing from the website.[audio: http://map.zonaindie.com.ar/Juani-DejameEntrar(Argentina).mp3]
AUSTRALIA: Who The Bloody Hell Are They?
White Caves is the new venture from Melbourne songwriter Darren Cordeux. The former Kisschasy frontman has completely left behind the acoustic teen psyche of 2006 for a much looser sound. I've Lost carves a completely uplifting vibe out of sombre song content. Thanks to some clear-cut production, soaring vocals and a vibe that sounds like MGMT's Andrew VanWyngarden fronting a slacker-pop band, White Caves is lending a new dimension of fun to typical 'pop-jams' right here.[audio: http://whothehell.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/03-Ive-Lost-1.mp3%5D

Charlie Campari – Bass Vampires
Music is good for much, but in the case of Charlie Campari it's a lifesaver. It's what keeps him off the needle and his first solo release, Moon Cricket EP, tackles his demons and past life on the streets of Copenhagen and several overdoses – three of them fatal – on a backdrop of acidic blues reminiscing Lou Reed, early Beck and The Brian Jonestown Massacre. Check out MAP exclusive download Bass Vampires and the cool video for single Monkey King.[audio: http://map.super45.cl/map-2013-10/Charlie_Campari_-_Bass_Vampires_-_Denmark.mp3%5D

Carolina Camacho – Ninfa De Las Aguas
Carolina Camacho's voice is truly one of a kind, but she leaves nothing to chance. After many years of intense lyrical training, she's been a part of various local musical acts such as SonAbril and Camacho. Recently she's gone solo, dedicating herself to exploring the worlds of vocal jazz, roots music and feminine empowerment on her newest single Ninfa De Las Aguas.

Mamá Soy Demente – Salsa De Marte
Mamá Soy Demente, a Guayaquilean duo formed by Dennis Darquea and Carlos Bohórquez, present their new single Salsa De Marte.

Annie Eve – Elvis (Live at Sofar Birmingham)
Sometimes the ache drips down the side of a song. Annie Eve is from north London and has quietly begun building a fanbase. DiS recently saw this impressive young lady headline a sold-out church venue for those pulse-fingering folksters Communion Records. She takes a dab of influence from Bon Iver but casts her own shadow over these gentle sad-songs whilst her voice wows. If you fell under Daughter's spell in 2012/13 then you'll likely be obsessed with Annie Eve in 2014.[audio: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5942202/Elvis%20(Live%20at%20Sofar%20Birmingham).mp3]
ESTONIA: Rada7.ee
Imandra Lake is the new project of Rein Fuks and Eve Komp of Tallinn band Pia Fraus, and follows a similar indie-shoegaze line but it's all fresh and they sing in Estonian. Imandra Lake's sound is noisy and reverberant but less pop and quite tranquil and deep, reaching even the boundaries of the darker side of folk. Metsatants is a new track from their forthcoming second album which continues the same warm sound.[audio: http://map.rada7.ee/ImandraLake-Metsatants.mp3%5D

Gim Kordon – Ei Ole Helppoo (early demo version)
If J Mascis knew Finnish he would probably sound like the guys in Gim Kordon. This punk-rock trio, the first Finnish-language signing to hip label Soliti, is readying a debut album for next spring. As a first taste here's a raw and noisy early demo of Ei Ole Helppoo. The chorus is very catchy, so don't fear the language and sing along.[audio: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3135709/glue/map/gim_kordon_ei_ole_helppoo_finland.mp3%5D
GREECE: Mouxlaloulouda
Dalot is the creative alias of Maria Papadomanolaki. Ancestors EP, which was inspired by her grandfather's old photographs, is a reconstruction of fragments, not concerned with the accuracy of images and moments but with opening up the flood of memory mechanics to imagination and transformation. The songs of the EP reveal a cascade of emotions and offer an exploration of texture and atmosphere, as physical instruments merge with subtle electro-acoustic ambience and ethereal turbulences. The haunting title track features Izumi Suzuki's angelic vocals.[audio: http://map.super45.cl/map-2013-10/Dalot_-_Ancestors_-_Greece.mp3%5D
Guitarist Kamal Singh of erstwhile Bangalore post-rock act Lounge Piranha has struck gold with his newest side-project Hoirong. His debut album, The Resurrection Of The Princess Of Woe And Her Vampire Hound Posse, is not only a mouthful of a title but a grungy, raw record recorded wholly on a laptop mic, spanning from disco-punk to noise-rock, with lo-fi production and a dark sense of humor. The album is Singh's ode to the 90s alternative music scene and definitely wins over fans of dirtier, lo-fi music.[audio: http://media.nh7.in/MAP/01%20Bajrang%20Bali.mp3%5D

Produced by A.J. Mogis (Saddle Creek Records) and recorded in the Arc Studios in Omaha, Nebraska, Build A Fire is the third album by Green Like July. Mike Mogis of Bright Eyes and Jake Bellows of Neva Dinova, among others, collaborated on various songs. Green Like July have their roots in American tradition but they can evoke the magic of classic Beatles melodies.[audio: http://www.polaroidallaradio.it/audio/green_like_july-moving_to_the_city.mp3%5D
JAPAN: Make Believe Melodies
Hisamokuden-Kow. calls the relatively relaxed prefecture of Tochigi, a few hours north of Tokyo, home. It is not a place one expects a busy track like Our Song to emerge from, all skittery beats and manipulated vocals tumbling over one another in an almost cartoon fashion. Yet despite how crowded it can get, it retains a catchiness throughout. Not bad, Tochigi.[audio: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20197641/Hisamokuden-kow%20-%20Our%20song%20(Japan).mp3]
MALTA: Stagedive Malta
Hailing from Valletta, Lyon and New York, FellowFish find themselves on the tiny Mediterranean island of Gozo (Malta's sister island). FellowFish is made up of lead singer and writer Keith Anthony, Christophe Ladret on percussion/drums and Kristian Vella on guitars. Their self-titled debut album, released earlier this year, has a mix of influences, ranging from Al Jarreau's smooth groove to Jeff Buckley's melancholic melodies.[audio: http://www.stagedivemalta.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/FellowFish-The-Outlaw.mp3%5D
MEXICO: Red Bull Panamérika
Pop-folk flavoured with coconut milk, composed using flip-flops and lying on a hammock by the palm trees. Caloncho comes from the sun-drenched city of Guadalajara and is known for wearing flowery Hawaiian shirts on stage and throwing bananas to the front rows. His debut Fruta EP has some juicy, fruity tunes that combine a vintage Tex-Mex rock 'n' roll from the likes of Ritchie Valens but also squeezes a hint of reggae on the mix. Palmar, first single and video, is an invitation to lay by a topless brunette on a Mexican beach and sway oblivious from the real world.[audio: http://panamerika.fm/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/CalonchoPalmar.mp3%5D
PERU: SoTB
After the separation of promising band Mi Jardín Secreto, singer Víctor Hugo Vargas began to release his own singles, preparing the way for the arrival of debut album El Primer Disco De Víctor Hugo, available for free from his website.

We Draw A – Tears From The Sun
So here's autumn again and it's hard to imagine a better anthem for those days than Tears From The Sun. Although the electro-pop duo only appeared on the Polish scene this year, We Draw A founder Pete Levy is known from Indigo Tree, a guitar-oriented band who recorded two LPs and gathered some underground fame from 2009-2011. We Draw A are recording for the Brennnessel label.[audio: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/92751456/We%20draw%20A%20-%20Tears%20From%20The%20Sun%20(Poland).mp3]

PUERTO RICO: Puerto Rico Indie
Bando is a new collaborative effort between veteran musicians of Puerto Rico's rock scene, including Agustín Criollo (Astrid Pröll) and Gaby Vidal (ONGO, Similar), focussed on exploring the music of the African diaspora through the classic and revolutionary Afrobeat sound. The group follows Fela Kuti into fertile territories for musical exploration such as bomba and Afro-American funk, inviting us to lose ourselves in dance without shying away from political lyrics that reflect the island's struggles. Bando are currently recording their debut, and have graciously offered us eight-minute scorcher Serembé as a MAP exclusive download.[audio: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/476245/Music/MAP/Bando%20-%20Serembe%20-%20%28Puerto%20Rico%29.mp3%5D

Fine It's Pink – Sky Is No Limit (Intro)
Fine It's Pink are new to the music scene but they are growing up fast. Although you can't put a finger on one genre, you can clearly hear post-rock, indie, electronic and strong psychedelic influences. Sky Is No Limit is their statement song, the one that takes you into their world of dreams. You can hear more of this world on SoundCloud.[audio: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3xf5xm2p5bnuryn/Fine%20It%27s%20Pink%20-%20Sky%20Is%20No%20Limit%20%28Intro%29%20%28Romania%29.mp3%5D

There Will Be Fireworks – Roots
If anyone could be held up as a glowing example of the 'less is more' approach it's There Will Be Fireworks. Four long years after the release of their acclaimed self-titled debut album, Scotland's reclusive princes of guitar-rock reverie have finally announced details of its successor, The Dark, Dark Bright, out on November 25 through Comets & Cartwheels. The album finds the group in a masterful embrace of the grandiose and the graceful – MAP exclusive download Roots falls into the latter category as the tenderest of tender acoustic compositions.[audio: http://thepopcop.co.uk/music/There-Will-Be-Fireworks-Roots.mp3%5D
SOUTH KOREA: Korean Indie
The mid-00s offered Korean indie-pop at its very finest with Tearliner as one of the key artists. Eight years after his first full-length, Tearliner returned with the Grey Garden album last month showcasing a more polished sound than the lo-fi productions he would previously offer. Strange Intimacy is a pretty, slow-paced, dreamy piece perfectly combining the best of both the old and new Tearliner.[audio: http://map.super45.cl/map-2013-10/Tearliner_-_Strange_Intimacy_-_South_Korea.mp3%5D
UNITED STATES: We Listen For You
Jared Bartman crafts majestic songs that twist pop elements around a sensitive core stabilized by occasional adventurous flourishes.

The Country Dark – Buttplug
Without any sophistication, The Country Dark play trash country-rock and address real life problems in songs like Don't Want To Come Too Soon, Cock Teasing Chick and Wank Alone. All those are included in the band's new album, Dead Man's Handjob, a collection of eleven short tracks, much profanity and The Cramps inspired rhythms. Here's the opening track Buttplug.
Sin Cos Tan – Limbo
Less than a year after an acclaimed debut album, the electropop duo formed by producer-DJ Jori Hulkkonen and singer-songwriter Juho Paalosmaa has prepared a follow-up. Sin Cos Tan will release its second album, Afterlife on 25 October and here's the first single. The smooth and sexy Limbo is backed up by the dreamy B-side Love In The 21st Century.
