Data hygiene is about increasing the quality of a data file prior to using it for mailing. The process involves matching a source mailing file against records of home movers and the deceased in order to identify and remove those recipients or trace their new addresses. Data hygiene cuts postage costs, protects brand and improves campaign ROI.
It is difficult to make a profit from selling standard direct mail or supplying cold data. There are too many competitors offering comparable services. However helping your clients improve the ROI of their campaigns by cleaning their data is a highly valuable service and is often a great way of attracting new clients. Cygnus provides everything you need to offer clients a comprehensive data hygiene service.
One of the most valuable assets a business has is its customer data, but with annual data decay exceeding 30% in some cases it is becoming increasingly challenging to maintain. Cygnus provides over 500 million deceased and home mover records making it is easy to keep mailing data up to date.
Unlike most data processing services, Cygnus has over 500 million UK records embedded within the local software. These files are provided by suppliers such as Royal Mail, Experian and REaD group among others. Embedding these files directly within the software improves speed, security and automation of data processing jobs. Cygnus also makes it simple to offer clients free data hygiene reports, a pivotal service to help marketers understand the quality of their database and the potential for hygiene improvements.
The Software Bureau Academy provides the expertise to help users excel at data hygiene. Learn how to use Cygnus to segment and split high accuracy transaction data from historic data to avoid unnecessary suppression costs. Understand matching settings and levels of confidence when removing records and how to create data hygiene reports to show prospective clients how you can improve their data.

I like to keep my style a little different than the norm, and offer a mixture of mainly informal documentary style photos, with some artistic but relaxed and informal Bride and Groom portraits. I strive to capture natural moments, rather than posing for the camera
I combine a mixture of colour and black and white photos, and tastefully edit my photos to my own style and look.
Please see some examples below from weddings I have photographed across Lancashire, and further afield.


text: I understand the Canon 5Div is primarily a stills camera. However, as I have one, I would like to get the best quality video I can from it, including sound. If anyone is using this camera for video, what do you recommend? I have never really done video before, so no information could be too basic. Thanks!

I am a portrait photographer, based in Bakersfield, California. I have been taking photos professionally for 7 years.
Photos hold a special place in my heart and getting the most memorable photos for you is my ultimate goal. I lost my mother at a young age and we have only 2 photos of her with all of her children. This makes me very passionate about leaving memories for my clients and their families. I want to capture the fun and character that is you - your family personality! Whether it be a sweet 16 party, a senior portrait, a child's first birthday, or a teenager starting high school, I want to document all those milestones along the way!
I would love the opportunity to work with you and your family to provide you with photos to cherish for a lifetime.

I had to get a new windshield......nasty rock kicked up by a truck. The claims rep. wanted to know if I got the tag and name of the driver.....ummmm, at 65 mph on the interstate.....no, I didn't. Maybe next time.
This is my view most weekends and evenings and I am enjoying the results of my labors for sure. Now let's not look too close for I could spend a bit of time pulling a weed here or there. But I am mellowing and finding that the need to have every blade of grass and every ounce of mulch pristine is over-rated and not noticed by anyone but me.

I got my hair cut cut cut. I had managed to get it all one length and down to my shoulders. But BAM! my hair is so thick and it was so hot. I miss how nice if felt to run my fingers through how soft and silky it was. My new cut requires 'products' so I don't have that silky feel anymore. My ideal cut would be cute, short and gray like Jamie Lee Curtis but lets just say we don't share the same bone structure and leave it at that.

I didn't manage to finish up the Red-White-Blue Pine Mountain piece but I am close. Maybe by the end of the day today.
Of course a finish is not the only thing that dictates a new start....I suddenly realized I didn't have one finish for 2015. This is what happens when you are working on a SAL and a BAP! So I got a bit antsy and needed a little something something for that instant gratification.
I started ANOTHER small project. This is a square-ology design from Hands On Design.
For my SAL, I should have completed this row for this month's meeting but alas, I strayed. No worries, I plan to be back on track by August.

Grievance Policies
Consistent with the spirit of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), TTUHSC El Paso determines disability accommodations through a deliberative and interactive process involving disability services professionals, appropriate members of the university community and, of course, the individuals with disabilities themselves.
We recognize that there is the possibility of disagreement about the appropriateness of accommodations in any deliberative process. We also acknowledge that even with the best efforts of everyone involved with your service delivery at TTUHSC El Paso, a problem may occur. To this end, the Office of Disability Support Services in the Office of Student Services recommends a range of options to resolve concerns about accommodation and eligibility decisions, services received, treatment by institutional staff and faculty, and institutional policies related to students with disabilities.
Occasionally, a problem arises because of a misunderstanding or miscommunication; clarification can lead to a quick and effective solution. It is often best to discuss the issue with the person(s) most closely involved with the decision or incident first, and then the person's supervisor or department chair if a satisfactory resolution has not been provided. We strongly encourage students to let DSS know about any problems as soon as possible so that we can work together to solve the problem as quickly as possible.
Though attempts at internal resolution are always recommended first, external means for resolution are available and may be exercised at any time.
Throughout any of these procedures students should expect to be treated with respect, receive a timely response, have issues dealt with in a confidential manner to the greatest extent possible, and should not fear any form of retaliation.
The institution expects students to address any problems early, give clear and detailed information, and be respectful of those people who are working with you. If students wish to know more about their rights as a person with a disablity person under federal and state law and institutional policy, DSS can refer students to the appropriate entity. Disability-related law and institutional policy prohibit retaliation in any form against persons who file complaints.
Appeals of DSS Decisions
Occasionally, an accommodation initially recommended by the student's provider may not be considered feasible or appropriate for a specific course or program requirement when the accommodations would result in a fundamental alteration of an essential aspect of the student's program. This decision would have been made through an interactive process involving the student, their program, and possibly outside experts.
If a student disagrees with the outcome of such a decision, they are encouraged to consult informally with the DSS director. If this does not resolve the concern, the student may formally appeal the decision.
Students who wish to appeal a decision made by DSS must do so in writing by submitting an appeals form located on the DSS website within 20 days after the receipt of the letter of accommodation from the DSS director.
Appeals are considered by the assistant vice president for student services (AVPSS), as the vice president of academic affairs' designee. Completed accommodation appeal forms may be submitted by email or in person to Dr. Kathryn Horn (firstname.lastname@example.com, MEB 2140D). Refer to OP 77.14 (http://elpaso.ttuhsc.edu/opp/_documents/77/op7714.pdf).
Once the appeals form is received, the assistant vice president for student services will have 10 institutional days to review the accommodation appeal form, the student's file, and to meet with the student to discuss their request. In order to reach a decision, the AVPSS may also request additional documentation of a student's disability, request to consult with their treatment team or diagnostician, or consult with outside experts. The review process will be concluded five days after receiving any additional information. The decision of the AVPSS is the final ruling.
An individual who believes they have been discriminated against on the basis of their disability, or who feels that the institution is out of compliance with their obligations to people with disabilities under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the American's with Disabilities Act, as amended (ADAAA), is encouraged to work with TTUHSC El Paso to resolve their concerns informally. In the event that such difficulties cannot be resolved informally, students can avail themselves of TTUHSC El Paso's formal grievance processes, or the external process for resolution.
Informal resources for resolving grievances:
- Tammy Salazar, Ph.D.
Office of Disability Support Services
- Jessica Calderon-Mora, M.P.H., MCHES
Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Global Health
Formal means for resolving grievances:
- File a grievance via the Institution's Grievance Procedure
- TTUHSC El Paso Institutional Handbook:
- Kathryn Horn, M.D.
Assistant Vice President of Student Services
Associate Academic Dean of Student Affairs

Flooding is a normal sign of spring for many communities along the Mississippi River, but this year, flooding has come earlier than normal.
"This would be a normal year, except for two factors," said John Simon, director of the Agency of Adams County (Ill.) Emergency Management. "One: Two levies that were breached last year have not been completely restored, and two: everybody, including myself, is just a little bit gun shy and thinking, 'here we go again.'"
"Over the last couple of days, the contractor for the Army Corps of Engineers has stepped up efforts and mobilized equipment to put sand in the holes so the lvy can handle a 25 foot river heighth," Simon said.
Flooding is also a regular occurance in northern Indiana, according to Alan Welch, with Disaster Assistance for Northwest Indiana (DANI).
"The flooding right now is actually later than what we had last year. Last year we had flooding in January and again in February. Now we're in March," Welch said. "Right now the flood level is someplace between what we had last January and February. It might be a little early to tell what issues will come out of that."
Simon said the county is preparing for flooding again this spring and learned a lot from last year's major floods.
"There were thousands upon thousands of volunteers who flocked to Quincy and Adam's County that came from all over to help sandbag and with issues on the levy," he said. "I have no doubt in my mind that would occur once again (this year)."
According to Welch, DANI has already heard from clients they had from last year's floods that water had re-entered their homes.
"We have one family who took FEMA money and had some insurance money, but it wasn't enough to do everything," he said. "They came to us and said 'we tried to do it all but we couldn't' so we had authorized some help for them. They called this morning and said they had a foot and a half of water in their house."
The Rev. Bob Morwell, of Union United Methodist Church, volunteered extensively during the 2008 floods.
"Quincy did an excellent job of setting up a location to focus sand bagging efforts. What happened was essentially a 'if you build it, he will come' situation," Morwell said. "People came from a 100 mile radius. I remember a group of Mormon youth were meeting in St. Louis and they drove up and started digging. The Mennonite and Amish came out. We had every church in the community contributing volunteers."
In fact, Morwell said he knew of several groups that traveled long distances to help protect communities along the river.
"I was digging away (in the sand) one day and there was a woman working next to me. I asked her where she was from and she said Alaska," he said. "She said they were from the area originally and visitng relatives and decided they had to help. They spent part of their family vacation digging sand and filling sand bags. I understand from the mayor of Quincy that we filled 1.3 million sandbags in 10 days. It was a wonderful spirit.
"People came from New Orleans and said 'you folks helped us in our time of need' so they came to sandbag as a way of saying thank you."
Most of Quincy, Ill. is located on a bluff, but the community was sending sandbags to three different states to help communities along the river.
"There was a willingness to band together very quickly. Every organization you would think of as being coordinators stepped in quickly, but frankly, city and state authorities also stepped up quickly and were extremely well organized. I think they were sobered a bit by the incompetent response to Katrina and decided they weren't going to let that happen (in Illinois)," Morwell said.
Morwell said he was very impressed by how people were able to channel their talents and work where they were needed.
"I think that's evidenced by the fact that the flood stopped. Quincy was the first place the levies held. We were able to keep the flooding that had affected Cedar Rapids contained," he said.
Morwell said the spirit of the town shined during the 2008 efforts.
"Everyone can readily have a role to play to help their neighbors," he said. "I saw little kids down there digging in the sand and filling bags. If you can't dig, you can cook. If you can't cook, you can contribute in other ways. I think that's something people need in their lives -- a sense of purpose, of usefulness in times of disaster."
According to Welch, this year, people are being proactive during floods.
"I talked to the (American) Red Cross and they said they had more people in the shelter this year than last year. We talked about it and realized that people are being more proactive in taking care of themselves this time around. The community as a whole is aware of flooding and as the water began to come up, people were quicker to evacuate on their own."
Morwell said spiritual care is also important when disasters are striking.
"For those whose businesses or homes or farmland were devastated, you offer support to say 'well yes, this is a blow and we have to make changes, but life can go on and can be even better for the experiences,'" he said. "To offer comfort, support, material assistance if we can is important. A lot of churches in the wake of flooding brought in equipment and crews to help with cleanup and to tell people that there's nothing that happens that we can't overcome together and find strength, if we choose."
Simon said the faith-based organizations in the community are well organized for times of disaster.
"We have a seat in the Emergency Operation Center for our local VOAD. They in turn, reach out and coordinate the organization of the faith-based groups and non-profits. That whole group's entire focus is on the human needs element. It's not on law enforcement; it's not on firefighters or public works. It's all about dealing with the people," Simon said.
According to Simon, the VOAD came together in 1995, after the '93 flood.
"They are very fruitful and proved invaluable last year, as we were able to reach out and coordinate an approach to any organization that exists through one network or another."
Morwell said it was amazing to see how well people came together to protect towns that had been engulfed by flood waters before.
"A little further down the road (from Quincy) there's a little town that was inundated -- Hall. (In 1993) they were completely under water. The town was in danger of being overwhelmed again this time. People came from Quincy and all around to help save it," Morwell said. "The National Guard was there, along with other groups including prisoners from the county jail. I was working side-by-side with them and it was pretty amazing. You would think they wouldn't be all that motivated, but they were polite, worked hard and did a tremendous job."
Morwell said there were so many sandbags filled, the endloaders could not keep up with the people.
"People were out there 12 hours a day doing this. Probably if they had the operation going 24 hours, people would have been out there continually. It's the feeling of being part of something miraculous and wonderful. We wanted it to succeed and it did," he said.

Assalamu Alaikum Oh Allah's Friends!
I am a mature young boy, 16 years old. I naturally don't like to eat much. Ramadan is coming and my mother is saying that I cannot fast because I am already weak. What should I do Oh Spiritual Ones?
wa `alaykum salam,
I am sure your mother knows that fasting is obligatory except on those who are unable, which could include someone with a condition such as yours. Trust your mother and you'll be fine.

I'm not sure why my computer is trying to extract to the C drive, I'm guessing it might be a temp holding thing? I don't know! Is there a way I can make it extract using only my F drive (which aint full). Edit: scrap that I found a setting for the temp file location. I think that will solve my problem!

Kill The Business
To begin, I'd like to send out a big, hearty, welcome to all our new readers. We've been getting way more traffic than we expected in these first few weeks, so thank you for making us feel loved. Yay for love!
I said when we started this blog that I wanted to feature some music from our own area for all you interwebbers. Exactly where is "our own area," you ask? We are on the Canadian east coast in New Brunswick, which is nestled between Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, collectively known as the maritime provinces. Some cool stuff that's come out of here includes Eric's Trip, Thrush Hermit/Joel Plaskett, The Burdocks, Buck 65, and a bajillion others. Seriously, a bajillion. I counted.
On Vinyl is a rock band from Fredericton. They recently put out a self-released album called Strode Dodger, which you can find more info about at their official site. To describe their music, I think the most accurate comparison I can come up with would be to say they're well-suited for fans of The Foo Fighters. They've got riffs, they've got hooks, and they've got a singer who sounds like he's scratching his own throat out when he kicks it up a notch. Lost and Gawking is definitely the more accessible of the two songs I'm posting; there's something about its simple pop charm that excites me. Strode Dodger shows off the band's slightly more aggressive side.

The European Commission has proposed spending millions on futuristic facial recognition technology to keep track of 'irregular migrants'. They also slammed rules blocking states from accessing existing data on criminal migrants.
The proposals, from the European Union's (EU) unelected executive arm, are part of a massive expansion of the Eurodac fingerprint database used to identify asylum seekers and irregular border-crossers. The proposed upgrade will cost around €30 million, EurActiv Germany reports.
Eurodac was introduced in 2000 to support the Dublin System, which is now failing as migrants routinely fail to be sent back to the first EU nation they arrived it. The EU is instead seeking to forcibly resettle over a hundred thousand migrants from those countries across member states.
Now, the EU wants to collect more data on migrants and store it for longer – five years instead of 18 months. They hope this will keep migrants on the authorities' radar, especially underage refugees.
It also proposes that the minimum age of migrants whose biometric data can be collected be lowered from 14, to unaccompanied minors as young as six years old.
In February this year, German authorities admitted they did not know the whereabouts of 130,000 migrants – meaning that more than one in ten of the unvetted new arrivals from the Middle East simply disappeared, somewhere in Europe.
The Commission also slammed current rules restricting the collection of migrant data. Astonishingly, member states cannot check the fingerprints of apprehended migrants who have no residence status and have not yet submitted an application.
The Commission argues that the database should now be used as a centralised tool to collect the biometric data of all non-EU citizens on European soil.
It is not known when the facial recognition software will be rolled out. According to research carried out by netzpolitik.org, the EU does not actually have the software necessary to process digital facial images, and it will be 2020 before it is ready.
Security officials will, however, be allowed to take photographs if the new amendment is passed. Without the automated tech the border guards will simply have to rely on their own judgment when identifying individuals.

Multifamily Buildings
Rosa Parks Apartments
Chicago, Ill.
Rosa Parks Apartments is a 94-unit community-based affordable rental apartment development consisting of 8 buildings scattered across 21 city lots. As an affordable housing development, it was critical that the Rosa Parks Apartments buildings be economical to build and sustainable for long-term operation and maintenance. Due to the location, one challenge for this project was maintaining security during construction. Precast allowed the builders to place the panels, install the windows and doors, and secure the building quickly with minimal weather setbacks.
The building system has proven to be tight and energy efficient, largely due to the size of the panels, allowing for reduced exterior joints. The insulated wall panels featured cast-in brick on the street facades and a painted brick pattern on the rear. The different colors of the brick panels blend in well with the surrounding neighborhood at the different locations and contrast nicely with the bay windows.

The Lost Art – a debut album that offers a certain magnetism(February 07, 2015)
The eight songs on The Lost Art's eponymous debut are a tenuous collection of harmony-rich, subtly crafted and intimately instrumented songs that sweep across their scope of delivery to both engage and disconcert. The core of the absorption comes from the combination of two engaging voices belonging to Gordo Francis and Greg Hooper that alternately contest and unite to deliver a vocal compendium with a touch of familiarity but entirely different. Have you heard them before? Is this from today or from years ago? The questions are answered by how you hear their 'hard-to-place' blend of styles and certain magnetism.
Leading in with an easy flow through the pensive, almost fragile harmonies of `Equals', the insistent energy of'Floating Away' and the vocal explorations of `Secret Life' move deeper into their style. Add disarming resonances and punchy swing arriving with 'The Passenger' on an altogether different tack, and you're experiencing the individuality of this duo. Don't get comfortable though, `Kick the Habit' is uncompromising vocal acrobatics with a guitar-driven, harmony-edge, before the portentious echoes of 'High and Mighty' complete with sonorous piano and faintly disturbing vocals takes an altogether more ominous turn.
The Lost Art definitely bring something different. It's a difference that pulls you in and then leaves you slightly wondering 'where to next?' Are there too many vocal twists and unexpected turns? First impressions may confuse but the longer you listen, the more this album makes it work. Decide for yourself here: www.thelostartduo.com

It has emerged in recent weeks that the government could soon look to ban 'Gazumping'. A fundamental move which will prevent millions of house sales falling through each year, and avoiding the disappointment faced by buyers.
What is Gazumping? The term 'Gazumping' is used when a seller accepts a verbal offer from a buyer on their property, however subsequently accepts a higher offer from another party. It can also mean when a seller decides to raise the asking price after the acceptance of a verbal offer. This practise results in the buyer either having to negotiate by offering a higher price or losing out on the purchase.
Currently banned in Scotland, the government are in discussions to introduce the ban across both England and Wales in order to crack down on those that pull out of buying or selling a house at the last minute. Currently 1 in 5 property transactions fall through each year in the UK.
Mark Hayward, managing director at the National Association of Estate Agents, said: "The English system for buying and selling property dates back to the 1920s and has not been updated for nearly 100 years. It is an archaic system which doesn't allow for modern technology. It needs updating to allow for as much work to be done before the point of offer as possible."
Current proposals are to fall in line with Scotland and move forward the point at which a house sale becomes legally binding. Forcing people that pull out of a deal to pay the other parties fees or even buyers to lose their deposit if they pull out after signing legally binding documents such as a contract. The current system makes property transactions legally binding only at the point of contracts being exchanged which is costing around £270 million in wasted legal and surveying fees on failed purchases.
By adopting these new rules the Government hopes to alleviate the current problems faced by both buyers and sellers across the UK and make the process more straight forward as well as reduce the lengthy time frames and risks associated.

I was looking for something science-related to post about today, and I came across this in my weekly "Science Alert" email (Therefore this counts as science…)
It turns out that Science Magazine sponsors a competition titled, "Dance your PhD", where PhD students (or graduates) are invited to choreograph an interpretive dance that helps to explain your PhD topic!
Next time you're asked what you're studying, why not break out in to an interpretive dance?! It would save a lot of trouble in the long run…
But how to go about it? I'd love to hear your suggestions in the comments below.
If you're interested in entering, you need to film your PhD interpretive dance and upload the video to vimeo.com. All the rules can be found at this website. You have until the 1st October to get your entry in.
To get you started, here is the winner from last year…

Insight into creative process and details behind our newest offering, the +AFTERLIFE+, exclusively for Index.hr.
Here's an excerpt from the story:
"AFTERLIFE firstly came up as a business model redesign idea where I wanted to get closer to my current core of customers and collaborators and do personalized stuff for them only. In the end, the name stayed for the new collection too, for both reasons; being the first one in the current business model era, but also for its aesthetic."
"My approach to creating is spontaneous and holistic, because its constantly driven by the idea and not the product. I can analyze the creative process better after several months, when I see the (sub)conscious inspiration and things that affected me in that period. The goal is to constantly set bigger goals and see my growth in getting new knowledge, but also in a way of perceiving things I 'know' now…"

Undertaking a revival of former NBC sitcom Community was a costly venture for Yahoo, and might hamper the company's future plans to compete in the world of online original programming.
Variety reports Ken Goldman, Chief Financial Officer for Yahoo, explained during the tech giant's quarterly earnings call this week that his company lost $42 million last quarter, and specifically blamed the video division for "what went wrong."
Goldman specifically singled out Community, a show starring Joel McHale and Gillian Jacobs, which was cancelled after five seasons on NBC, but later picked up by Yahoo during an attempt to compete with streaming giants, such as Netflix and Amazon.
Season six of the sitcom ran exclusively on Yahoo video platform Yahoo Screen, beginning in March.
In addition to Community, two other original Yahoo shows, Sin City Saints and Other Space, failed to become profitable.
Goldberg reportedly explained that monetizing the shows failed to work the way the company hoped it would, but did not rule out the possibility of the company testing the waters of original content in the future.
Around the same time news of Yahoo's disastrous quarter was breaking, Community creator Dan Harmon launched what would turn into an hours-long meltdown on Twitter.
Admittedly drinking, Harmon shared his thoughts on "PROFITABLE" rap song ideas, before laying into fans and others.
I have two sincere pitches for the hip hop industry that will sound like a bit, but are sincerely offered pieces of PROFITABLE advice

Speaking about shaver, what brand do you prefer to choose for it? There are many brands that manufacture shavers in the market. If we have to say, you can really consider Braun shavers. The products made by Braun are pretty much reliable for its customers. We find that there is one shaver great to choose from it. So, here we would like to talk about it in this Braun Series 3 340s-4 Shaver review. Yes, the mentioned shaver is the shaver we mean you to consider. Of course, there are various good things about it. Let's see them here then.
Efficient Shaving with Comfort and Control
You must have known how shavers work to shave your beard if you have been reading reviews of various shavers. However, have you ever found one that can do efficient shaving? Actually, most shavers would only focus on being able to cut the hairs. Not all of them can be efficient enough in doing so. With the shaving being made efficient, you can experience an easy shave. Of course, this is the very thing that you will get from this Braun shaver. It is because this shaver is equipped with SensoFoil Technology specifically for that.
This technology is meant to offer optimized foil that will do the job to cut hairs in more efficient way so that you can get an easy shave. It makes the shaver glide across the skin in comfortable way as well. This feature sure plays quite a role in giving added comfort and control when shaving. Only then, you will feel how perfect shaving experience is. Others can't always offer both comfort and control. Quite often you don't find yourself comfortable using them. However, you can be sure that this shaver here will give you what you need.
Good Cutting System for All Hair Lengths
When it comes to shaver, you need to know that it is not always capable of cutting all hair lengths. Sometimes, it is only meant to cut short hairs for it might be an easier thing to do. How about cutting long hairs then? Some shavers might be able to do so, but how well they can do it might be different from one to another. Fortunately, this Braun Series 3-340s Wet & Dry Electric Shaver is made to be able of cutting all hair lengths. Don't you think it is great? What makes it possible is that this shaver has Triple Action Cutting System.
This system has included up to 3 special cutting elements to do the job to shave either short or long hairs. Both can be shaved with perfect result. That is why there is no need to even doubt about this shaver here. The hairs you want to shave will be done very well and leave smooth skin as you touch it. If this saver can accomplish something that others couldn't, it should be able to guarantee enough that this shaver is a good one to choose. It does offer improved performance that can make you be happy for shaving your hairs with.
Precision Trimming for Long Hairs
Still related to the discussion above, it seems that Braun pays quite an attention to this shaver's capability in shaving long hairs. However, this is something that we should be glad about. Sideburns, moustache, and beard can be really long sometimes. We need a shaver that is reliable enough to help us shave those hairs. However, to do so, a shaver must have precision in trimming. You don't have to worry though. In this Braun Series 3 340s-4 Shaver review, we will say that the mentioned shaver does the job by offering such thing.
You see, this shaver has precision long hair trimmer after all. This trimmer is said to be specifically designed to trim sideburns, moustache, or beard where long hairs can be found. If it is specifically made so, what can be said more about it? Braun has always been serious in making the shavers it produces to live up to what it is claimed to be. That is why this shaver must have really been able to do a good job in trimming long hairs on your face. This feature just makes it all the more worth to choose due to its performance, don't you think?
Nice Waterproof for Use in the Shower
Not all-electric shavers can be this convenient, you know. Yes, the capability to use the shaver in the shower is something that most men would want from it. However, shaving hairs in the shower means that we shave them with foams or gels. Do you think electric shaver will be fine with it? You might think it impossible, but this Wet & Dry Electric Shaver from Braun makes it to happen. Let us tell you here that this shaver is made with 100% waterproof. With waterproof, it becomes possible for this shaver to come in contact with water.
Because of that too, it becomes fully washable. Don't you find it amazing? Braun has made this shaver to have fully sealed body after all. That is why even when you shave with foams or gels in the shower, this shaver will work just fine for you. The body is protected completely from the water that might damage its inside. So, there is no need to worry that it will be broken just because it touches water. You are free to use this shaver in or out of the shower. That is why we said that this shaver is really convenient to use.
Visible Battery Level and Charging Status
It is an electric shaver we are talking about here. When we use it, we would want to know its battery level. Not to mention, we would want to know how its charging status is, when we charge it. For that reason, there is something that can let us know about it. At least, there must be some kind of indicator for it. Fortunately, this shaver we are talking about here can make such things visible to us. Thus, we have the capability to know both the battery level and the charging status. Don't think that it is something trivial!
Without being able to see the battery level, we won't know when the shaver will lose its power to work for you. Even without being able to see the charging status, we won't be able to know when to stop charging it. Braun does not let such things to happen with this shaver here. Why? It is because it has been designed with LED Display to update battery level and charging status for you. What do you think about this saver then? Does this Braun Series 3 340s-4 Shaver review give you enough inside about it? Be sure to consider it.

Published at Thursday, February 15th, 2018 - 10:25:18 AM. Tiles Flooring. By Dan Juliane.
Hit to Read More
One of the major advantages to choosing hard tile floors for pet populated public areas is that they are very simple to clean. There are few detergents out there that can damage a ceramic tile's glaze, so you will be able to use heavy duty soaps to disinfect the space. At the same time, the hard surface acts like a shield, holding any unseemly materials in place ready to easily be wiped or mopped up.
With glazed ceramic, you can use virtually any cleaning agent that you want to completely sanitize the area. With harsher chemicals, you should be careful not to degrade the grout lines too much. You also want to make sure the space being cleaned is well ventilated, and follow all manufacturers instructions in the application of any cleanser.

Inside Out, a new Pixar film, is about a girl named Riley who is eleven years old and has just moved from her home in Minnesota to the West Coast. There, she is lonely without her friends and everything seems different. Much of the film is spent inside Riley's mind, which features a control center manned by five personified emotions: Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger and Disgust.
Scientists have praised the film for being remarkably true to what has been learned so far about the human mind, emotions and memory.
"It zeroes in on one of the most poignant times in an individual's life, which is the transition to the preteen and early teen years, where kids — and, I think, in particular girls — start to really powerfully feel the loss of childhood," says Dacher Keltner, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley.

Baltimore's 311 call center will start phoning back residents who ask for nonemergency services such as graffiti removal to make sure workers are performing the tasks they say they're completing.
Lisa N. Allen, manager of the call center, said the city would randomly check workers' claims after a Sun article published yesterday showed that city and utility workers recently filed eight questionable reports that problems had been resolved.
The eight reports were among those addressing 50 requests for basic services, such as towing abandoned cars and repairing potholes, that the newspaper tracked from Nov. 21 to Jan. 27.

The scene at Wilde Lake High School was just like that of any regular school day -- except the "students" were older.
They gathered at what they call "The Rail," a curved steel beam that encircles the media center -- a great place to people-watch. Others milled around the commons area near the cafeteria, catching up on gossip.
The crowd of nearly 500 people consisted mostly of graduates of Wilde Lake, dating to its first senior class in 1973. They returned along with their teachers and administrators for an open house yesterday to take a final look before the building closes next month to be demolished and replaced by a new structure.

If you're like most of us, you use hot water when you need a little help getting something clean – your hands, the dishes, or maybe your favorite shirt. That's because a little extra heat can break bonds, dissolve substances, and to help release dirt or stains into the water. It's no wonder that we count on hot water to clean carpets, too.
There's just one catch: We're always trying to keep water off of our carpets. Since when is it a good idea to spray water onto them?
As it turns out, getting carpets wet isn't necessarily a problem – provided that you've got the means to get them dry again soon. That's where the "extraction" in "hot water extraction" comes in. After application, extraction equipment is used to pull the water, cleaning solution, and stains up and out of the carpet. When the extraction is effective, just-cleaned carpets can dry in matter of hours.
It's worth mentioning that some extractions are more effective than others, and that this has a bearing on the quality of the carpet cleaning. Equipment makes a difference; portable extraction equipment will leave more moisture in the carpet than more powerful, truck-mounted equipment. The amount of water and cleaning solution also makes a difference; as more liquid is applied, more will be left behind in the carpet.
If you want to use hot water extraction to clean your carpets, the keys are to use a minimum of liquid and to use the most powerful extraction equipment available. If you're planning on cleaning the carpets on your own, be judicious in how much solution you spray; don't overdo it – especially important when you consider that your portable electric machine will not be able to extract liquid as well as a professional could.
Many of Olympia's carpet cleaners employ hot water extraction with excellent results. Of these, Meridian Chem-Dry is my favorite carpet cleaning company. They have top-of-the-line extraction equipment. They use a hot, carbonated cleaning solution. I believe they're able to apply lighter sprays of solution than the competition; I know that their carpet cleanings are first-rate and fast-drying.
It might also please you to know that Meridian's cleaning solution is completely safe and non-toxic. This is true of Chem-Dry as well as many other carpet cleaning companies. But it isn't true of all of them. If you have health concerns (or children or pets), you should be able to find a similarly safe and non-toxic carpet cleaner near you. If you're not sure about their solution, go ahead and ask. You won't be the first to do it.
Remember: Hot liquids clean better. Less liquid used means less left behind. Truck mounted extraction equipment beats portable machines. If you use a professional, ask if his cleaning solutions are non-toxic. If you can check all of these boxes, a clean carpet will be your reward.

Investors piled back into mutual funds after a severe market pullback in early June, according to the latest statistics from the Investment Company Institute. For the week ended June 13, investors placed an estimated $5.46 billion into virtually all categories of mutual funds, more than compensating for the previous week's $1.55 billion outflow.
Bond funds attracted the lion's share, raking in $3.60 billion for the week, more than double the $1.58 billion inflow a week earlier. Of the $3.60 billion, $2.99 billion went to taxable bond funds with the remaining $604 million going to municipal bond funds.
Non-U.S. equity funds were the second biggest recipients of the latest weekly inflow, taking in an estimated $1.51 billion, up 12% from the $1.35 billion inflow a week earlier.
U.S. equity funds, however, remained in the dumps, losing an estimated $620 million, the only fund category to post an outflow for the week. The good news is that the outflow slowed from the previous week's massive $3.26 billion outflow.
Hybrid funds — those that invest in both stocks and fixed income securities — received $966 million in estimated inflows, reversing the previous week's $1.23 billion outflow.
The weekly fund flow estimates are derived from data covering more than 95% of industry assets, according to ICI. The statistics cover long-term mutual funds, those the ICI defines as investing in long-term instruments.

Mikey and I love to go out to brunch. We like to find all the little spots in Miami and try a new place once a week or so. Sometimes they're sit down restaurants and other times they are bakery type places where you grab your food and go. It has definitely been fun discovering our favorite places in the city! I wrote a post that I update regularly about our favorite Miami brunch spots. Check it out here!
Mikey loves the savory breakfasts, but my favorite are the sweets. Waffles, pancakes, french toast, crepes…I love them all! And I love narrowing down which restaurants have the best of each. A restaurant down here that I think has the best pancakes in town is Chuck Wagon. They are huge, fluffy pancakes. None of these boxed, thin pancakes. They are perfect. So naturally, since having those, I've been working on creating a recipe to get the same results at home. And here is my recipe for pancakes for 2 (or 1 one with leftovers…or no leftovers, I won't tell :p). Now I can make the buttery, fluffy and airy pancakes from Chuck Wagon right at home whenever I want. That's a win! 😉
If you make these pancakes, be sure to hashtag #toeatdrinkandbemarried. I'd love to see them! 🙂
The Fluffiest Pancakes For 2
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking power, sugar and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and give it a good whisk until just combined. (if the batter seems too thick, you can add a bit more milk…but remember, thick batter, means thick pancakes!)
- Melt a bit of butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium high heat. Ladle about 1/2-3/4 cup (or use the blue scoop from this set…it's my favorite for many things!) of batter into the pan. Cook just until it begins bubbling on the surface, and then flip the pancake. Once cooked, set aside, repeat with the rest of the batter.
Tip: if the pan gets too hot and begins to burn the butter or pancakes, remove it from the heat instead of lowering the heat. By removing it for a couple minutes, you can reduce the heat on the pan, but once it goes on, it begins an even cooking again. 🙂
For chocolate chip pancakes: when you ladle the pancake mix into the pan, sprinkle the top with semi-sweet mini chocolate chips. (This way is better than mixing it into the batter because you avoid burning the chocolate as it cooks directly on the pan.)
For banana pancakes: Mash 1/2 banana and mix it into the batter. Increase the milk by 2 tablespoons at a time until it's able to be poured.
For vanilla pancakes: add up to one teaspoon of vanilla (I usually go with 1/2 teaspoon) to the batter.

"A Provençal classic. Made this for dinner tonight. I just love fresh basil leaves and spring is the best season to get them! Note that the pistou is very garlicky, so tone it down a bit if you or anyone in your family is not a big garlic fan. Based on an article in the food section of the NY Times by Mark Bittman (the Minimalist). Pistou is pesto en français. I changed this around a bit to make lower fat and a bit easier. Am posting for Zaar World Tour 2006."

Today the Herald makes its recommendations for Florida House Districts 113, 114, 115, 116, 118, 119 and 120. Recommendations for five other districts were published Tuesday. A list of all recommendations for the Nov. 8 general election made so far is also available online.
District 113
State Rep. David Richardson, 59, came to prominence in 2012 when he was elected in his first run for office and became the state's first openly gay member of the Legislature. The Democratic lawmaker is running for a third term and facing challenger Jonathan Parker, 54, a DUI defense attorney who ran unsuccessfully last year for the Miami Beach Commission.
Mr. Richardson made his mark early in his Tallahassee career, authoring legislation to appoint an inspector general to oversee the affairs of Citizens Property Insurance Corporation. He also authored an amendment to eliminate the ban on allowing gay couples to adopt children and has made prison reform a priority. Rep. Richardson has made 45 visits to state prison sites to get a first-hand look at conditions and was so appalled by what he found at the prison in Lancaster that he called for it to be closed — which it subsequently was.
Rep. Richardson represents some of the wealthiest parts of Miami-Dade County (in Miami Beach) and some of the poorest in East Little Havana. He looks after the interests of both parts of his district and deserves reelection.
For State Representative, District 113, the Herald recommends DAVID RICHARDSON.
District 114
Two years ago, we recommended Republican incumbent Erik Fresen over Democrat Daisy J. Baez, but it was a close call. With Rep. Fresen term-limited out, Ms. Baez, 57, a successful healthcare consultant, is seeking the seat again. Though a newcomer to politics, she has impressive knowledge of state issues and is passionate about being a public servant. It comes naturally to her; she is a decorated military veteran, having served in the U.S. Army's 1st Calvary Division. She is being challenged by Republican John Couriel.
Ms. Baez does not support public tax dollars going to for-profit, private schools; she supports Medicaid expansion and the Second Amendment, but says a process of "registration and limitation is reasonable and necessary for public safety."
Her opponent, Mr. Couriel, is making his second run for the Legislature, too, and has an eye-catching resume. A Harvard grad, Mr. Couriel, went on to become a law clerk for a federal judge and an assistant U.S. attorney. As a lawmaker, he would target violent crime and the huge challenge of Medicare fraud, among other priorities. He is a proponent of community policing and says that Medicaid expansion does not "address economic realities."
We give the edge to Ms. Baez in this race, for breadth of experience in the military and the business world, both of which should serve her, and Floridians, well in the Legislature. For State Representative, District 114, the Herald recommends DAISY J. BAEZ.
District 115
Republican Rep. Michael Bileca hews to his party's conservative agenda: Expand Medicaid? No. Open carry? Yes. And he says LGBT rights are an issue of dignity and respect for everyone. However, he has not been single-minded or rigid during the three terms he has served. So, though he supports school vouchers and school choice, he also said in the Herald's questionnaire that public schools receive too little funding. He decries the state Department of Corrections' "culture of lawlessness" and wants to see more vigorous prosecutions of DOC employees who have abused — and even killed — inmates. He says that Florida can be a national leader of renewable energy, and that offshore drilling will hurt our coastlines and, by extension, the lucrative tourism industry.
He worked to expand Opportunity Scholarships for students in failing schools and personal-learning accounts for families with severely disabled children. In addition, he was a member of the Financial Recovery Board that pulled Jackson Memorial Hospital back from the brink of insolvency, a position he left once the facility was on more-solid financial footing.
Democrat Jeffrey Doc Solomon, 56, is challenging the incumbent, his third run for the seat. A chiropractor, Dr. Solomon's focus is on education. Like Rep. Bileca, he sees the benefit of school vouchers for children from low-income neighborhoods and rural areas. But Dr. Solomon says that they are a drain on public schools. In his questionnaire, he, too, said the public schools get too little funding. He's all for banning assault weapons and open carry; and he decries the raiding of Amendment 1 funds, meant to preserve environmentally fragile land.
Despite our differences, we think that Rep. Bileca has earned another term, given his depth of experience and accomplishment. For State Representative, District 115, the Herald recommends MICHAEL BILECA.
District 116
Republican incumbent Jose Felix Diaz was first elected in 2010, and seeks reelection for a fourth term. Democratic challenger Heath Rassner did not respond to efforts to contact him by the Editorial Board.
Rep. Diaz, 36, is one of the more moderate members of the Miami-Dade Republican delegation. This year, he sponsored a bill that was passed unanimously to expand KidCare, allowing thousands of immigrant children to receive health coverage. He also sponsored what became Amendment 4, which provides tax exemptions for solar power and renewable energy sources. It was approved by voters in the Aug. 30 primary election.
Rep. Diaz says that if reelected his priority will be to overhaul the rules governing condo associations to make them more uniform statewide and to provide greater fairness for residents and prevent abusive practices. Given the large number of condominiums in part of his district, like Fountainebleau, it is a matter of urgency for his constituents.
For State Representative, District 116, the Miami Herald recommends JOSE FELIX DIAZ.
District 118
Democrat Robert Asencio, a retired Miami-Dade Schools police captain running his first campaign, faces off against David Rivera, a controversial former Republican member of Congress dumped by voters in 2012 and who is making another bid to restart his tarnished political career.
As befits someone with 26 years of keeping schools safe, Mr. Asencio says his top issues are public education and public safety. He wants more money for public schools and improved educational accountability standards.
He sensibly opposes campus carry legislation because he believes having untrained personnel carrying weapons in public is a liability. He supports criminal-justice reform and says state government has lost its way, answering the call of special interests rather than constituents.
This one's a no-brainer. Mr. Rivera's public career has been marred by one scandal after another. The scurrilous attack ads he's running against Mr. Asencio in this race are false, a testament to his willingness to say or do virtually anything to win. Voters are better off without him. For State Representative, District 118, the Herald recommends ROBERT ASENCIO.
District 119
State Rep. Jeanette Nuñez is seeking her fourth term in the Legislature, where she has been a thoughtful voice for conservative issues and fiscal responsibility.
She is being challenged by Jeniffer Pinell, a first-time political candidate.
Rep. Nuñez, 44, opposes Medicaid expansion, supports school choice and says that much of the anti-gun discourse following the Orlando Pulse nightclub shooting was politically motivated. Still, she says, she's willing to help close loopholes to make citizens safer. She is best known for pushing to control tolls and reining in the Miami-Dade Expressway Authority, keeping her constituents' grievances in mind.
This year, Rep. Nuñez fought to restructure the MDX and impose tougher ethics requirements. She and state Sen. Anitere Flores, R-Miami, sponsored a bill to shrink the MDX board from 13 members to nine and prohibit anyone from serving on the board if that person has represented a client or done business with the authority in the past four years. The governor signed the bill.
The priorities of Ms. Pinell, whose business helps home-healthcare workers seeking to unionize, are more in line with those of the Editorial Board. She supports Medicaid expansion and raising the minimum wage. She says that she wants to make a difference. Laudable, but she didn't show the depth of knowledge of either the issues or the legislative process that would make her a stronger challenge to the experienced incumbent.
For State Representative, District 119, the Herald recommends JEANETTE NUÑEZ.
District 120
Rep. Holly Raschein has been a champion for her Monroe County constituents and for those in need statewide. The Republican lawmaker has bucked her party to work across the aisle to support Medicaid expansion and pushed through the Florida Keys Stewardship Act to invest as much as $25 million a year to the Florida Keys for water-quality and land-conservation projects.
The Act creates a 10-year funding strategy that appropriates up to $25 million annually for the acquisition of conservation land and water-quality projects, such as storm and wastewater projects and canal-restoration projects.
This is game-changing stewardship on her part. She clearly recognizes just how valuable the Keys are environmentally and economically.
And, in a move that, unfortunately, could have come at great cost, Ms. Raschein voted to accept federal funds that would have provided healthcare to about 13,000 people in her district alone. She should be commended for putting principle — and people — before party.
She opposes drilling off Florida's coasts, preferring investment in renewable energy; and supported the state buying Big Sugar's land south of Lake Okeechobee to enhance water quality and the Everglades.
Her Democratic opponent, Dan Horton, is a political newcomer. A graduate of Florida International University's law school, Mr. Horton rightly says that the district lacks affordable housing — another challenge the incumbent is working to alleviate — and that protecting the environment is among the most pressing issues there. At 31, he is a smart and earnest candidate who should better familiarize himself with the issues. Right now, he is no match for Rep. Raschein, who's ability to get things done has been a boon for the district. For State Representative, District 120, the Herald recommends HOLLY RASCHEIN.

All this comes after Amber Heard filed for divorce from the actor after 15 months of marriage this May, requesting financial and more personal documents.
US Weekly have also obtained court documents the actor filed on Friday, July 15, 2016.
According to the papers, "All documents produced by [Depp] in this action and/or any third parties subpoenaed in this action … shall be designated as 'Confidential Information' herein."
All this comes after Amber Heard filed for divorce from the actor after 15 months of marriage this May, requesting financial and more personal documents.

"Johnny does not dispute that Amber is entitled to the majority of the information sought in her discovery requests and subpoena. He is willing to produce the documents necessary for Amber's evaluation of the relevant issues in this case, such as division of community estate and spousal support. He has asked, however, that a confidentially agreement be executed prior to the production of documents in order to protect the parties' privacy."

The filing also claims that Depp's legal team sent a proposed confidentiality agreement to Heard's lawyer on May 27, but that the actress' attorney allegedly said neither she nor Heard would sign the agreement.
