We would like to thank Linda for her excellent assistance in working with us with the recent sale of my parents home at Drury. She was always very professional and kept in contact with us regularly after open homes and phone calls re enquiries relating to the property. She was a pleasure to work with and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to other vendors or buyers. We were very happy with the outcome of this property sale.
Val Anderson & Faye Blank
Linda was friendly, professional & a pleasing agent to work with.
Vikran Nagpal
Linda was very easy and friendly to work with. She always gave us good feedback. The advertising was well presented.
Vallance Bruce Anderson
We first met Linda Breeze when she held an open home we attended. She arranged for us to have a second viewing and kept us informed as to what was happening with the sale of the property. We purchased the property on condition to selling our home. Linda then listed our house for sale. It was a busy time over the Christmas holidays,but she managed to do an assessment and organise the photos to be taken on the first available day. She held two open homes, reporting back to us on all the comments from viewers and the property was sold in just over two weeks. We found Linda to be helpful,always available and very professional.

I have been in New Zealand since 2004 linda is one of the best person I see. She is veryyyyy kind and she was very helpfull all of the time.
This letter is an acknowledgement of the excellent assistance given to me by Linda Breeze, who acted as selling agent for the sale of my property at 2/12 Wood st. Papakura, which settled on the 7th August 2015. The whole process really was "a breeze"! Linda showed her professionalism throughout, including dealing with courtesy and understanding with the tenants, who stayed on in the property.Linda showed her experience and skills in dealing with people which is a big plus in selling real estate.I was always kept informed of progress with open homes, I was really happy with the sale outcome when you obtained Two offers at full listing price, one of which was an unconditional offer. good job Linda, many thanks for your help. Cheers, Gordon Mackay 0274770869, (09}2992881. email@example.com
Gordon Mackay,
I have been working with Linda Breeze for the last ten years now. During these times, I found Linda to be highly professional and she takes very good care of all her clients both buyers and sellers. From my experience, Linda ensures that she takes her time with her clients and getting to know each individual, to ensure their wants and needs are met. I feel so lucky to have met and worked with a person like Linda, who is very kind, caring and considerate of other people. I don't believe I have come across any agent like her! As a result, I have chosen to work with Linda for over the years and will continue to do so.

Linda Breeze: Real Estate Agent Extraordinaire Linda Breeze sold our home in 2 weeks. She negotiated an unconditional offer and got a very good price. She is amazing, and took care of everything that needed attention and needed organising once we have moved to Australia. • She organised for someone to clean the pool, a plumber to repair a tap, a locksmith to replace the conservatory door lock, an excellent handyman who maintained the garden, painted, fitted new kitchen door knobs—the list goes on. • She was seen sweeping up millions of leaves around the property. She vacuumed, watered the plants & monitored the house • She contacted a professional home stager and a professional photographer. The staging and photography were that good we did not recognise some parts of the house. • She drove to Mitre10 to buy our kitchen door knobs and bargained a low price for them. • She would meet various people to let them inside the house, the garage door repairer, our family and friends….. • Linda kept us well informed after every open home • She returned our phone calls, text and email messages as soon as possible, mostly she was readily available This was our fifth home; in the past we had dealt with many good Real Estate Agents, but Linda definitely stands out as the SUPERSTAR! Linda is sought after, trustworthy, loyal, reliable, innovative and very capable, fun and makes things easy. Thanks Linda for making our property experience easy and fun. We did enjoy those stories of the laughter shared during the open homes. Thank you also for the lovely gift. We will cherish it for a lifetime. We can now invest or buy another property here in Australia sooner. Linda we wish you continued success. Fondest Regards P.S. Ian's Brother

Hi Linda I just want to thank you for all your help in selling my daughter Samantha house and my house last year. You had our house sold the day before we were officially on the market and even had back up offers and then continued to keep us in the loop on how things were progressing which made the process almost stress free. When I retire in a few years I may decide to transfer to Whangarei, If I do I will call you to sell this property in Papakura. Thanks again
Del Cassidy
I would personally thank Linda for all the work involved in selling my property. She went above and beyond my expectations of what a real estate agent does. I especially liked how she grouped buyers together on the same day at the same time, so it was less disruption for myself and my children, as I wasn't keen on an 'open home'. She kept a calm and non pressured manner throughout the whole process even though it was a stressful sale, which I can only apologize for, (dealing with lawyers who lacked communication skills). I recommend Linda to anyone who would like to know a light-hearted, caring and kind person that is so easy to deal with and who only has your best interests at heart when selling your property. Her focus is second to none, especially keeping the information coming in and so I was always well informed of the buyers interest. So I thank Linda for this experience and wish her all the best in all her endeavours both professionally and personally. Kind Regards
Kara Perry
To Whom it may concern 4 November 2013 After working with Linda for a short time at Papakura Ray White and Linda selling my personal home and a rental of mine it became clear to me that she is and was the right sales person for the job. Linda having started in real estate in her early 20's has given her an edge that I feel 95% of sales people lack. She took both sales of my houses very seriously and the first one I did a joint listing with her and she had it under contract within a week or two and when it came time to sell my second house a rental I did not bother trying to give it a go. I informed her of the price I was wanting and felt it was unachievable and pretty much tried to talk her out of it as to not waste my time or hers. Linda however said "Let me show one buy through" She proceeded to do so and within 24 hours I had an unconditional offer at the price I was looking for. Linda's result speak for themselves and if you are wanting an agent that genuinely cares about the sale of your house regardless of it's your family home or rental, Linda will achieve the premium price most of us are looking for and very few agents can actually achieve. I will highly recommend Linda to my parents when it comes time to sell the family home I grew up in and will encourage my friends to sell with her as well as I don't know how else put this but she does GENUINELY CARE. I have been in Real Estate for 9 years now from selling homes, rentals to apartments, commercial property and am currently a new homes building consultant in Perth, WA. I have no problem putting my hand up saying Linda Breeze is a better sales person than myself with her many years of experience and is still highly enthusiastic about what she does. So, before you let some young or inexperienced real estate person handle what is most of us our most valuable asset give Linda a chance. It's an experience that all sellers deserve yet unfortunately so little of us actually achieve given the high volume of poor quality agents out there. Feel free to contact me on +61452410275 or firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any further queries or questions. Kind Regards,
Jeremy McKean

The hidden truth?
Former foreign minister Alexander Downer says he asked Schapelle Corby's lawyer whether one of her relatives was involved in her drug smuggling attempt.
But Mr Downer said yesterday that there was nothing more to it.
In a documentary screened last night, Corby's former lawyer Robin Tampoe said Mr Downer told him he suspected Corby's brothers were behind the crime.
" 'Speak to the brother, speak to the older brother', that's what Downer said to me," he said.
But Mr Downer said he had no special knowledge of the case.
"I did ask them about the brother and whether there was any family involvement, but I only asked them," he told ABC Radio.
"I mean, I just simply didn't know, and to this very day Schapelle Corby's been convicted by the court - I didn't know anything more than the evidence that's been presented to the court."
Mr Downer said Indonesian authorities would view dimly revelations aired in the program that Mr Tampoe invented Corby's defence that Australian baggage handlers concealed 4.2 kilograms of marijuana in her boogie board bag, later discovered at Bali's Denpasar airport.
"To say that they have been pushing a line in the court, which they now admit is not true, is a very damaging thing to do," he said.
Mr Tampoe admitted to fabricating the defence theory that Australian baggage handlers could have planted the drugs in Corby's luggage.
"Baggage handlers didn't put drugs in the bag. Nothing to do with it," says Mr Tampoe, whom Schapelle Corby sacked in May 2005 immediately after she was sentenced to 20 years' jail.
"Now she (Schapelle Corby) believes it. They all fin' believe it. It's not true. That's why you can't put direct evidence relating to baggage handlers."
Mr Tampoe admitted running the defence after hearing an ABC Radio talkback program where callers were discussing alleged corruption among airport staff.
The documentary also showed a phone conversation between former Corby backer Ron Bakir and an intermediary recorded by the film-makers two months before Corby was sentenced.
The intermediary claimed a Supreme Court judge would accept a $900,000 bribe in three payments in return for a maximum sentence of six years for Corby. Mr Bakir declined the bribery offer.
Mr Bakir admitted Corby's famous cry of "Australia, help me. Help me" amid a media scrum on her way into court was contrived in a prison conversation between him and her that was recorded by the film-makers.
"When you believe in something so strongly, right, you have to do whatever it takes without hurting other people to make sure that happens," he said.
Corby, who maintains her innocence, is serving a 20-year sentence in Bali's Kerobokan prison.
The Queenslander's final legal challenge failed in March when Indonesia's Supreme Court upheld her 20-year sentence.
An appeal for clemency to Indonesia's president is Corby's last legal option, but it means she would have to admit guilt.
The 30-year-old's hopes of being released from prison have relied on the outcome of long-running negotiations between Indonesia and Australia over a prisoner transfer deal.
In the documentary Corby denies "taking the rap" for her younger half- brother James Kisina, who was initially carrying the boogie board bag before Corby identified it as hers.
Corby was hospitalised on Friday afternoon suffering severe depression, but is reported to be improving.
Her mother, Rosleigh Rose, said Corby had lost 12kg from her diminutive frame and "her hope" following a series of events.
These included the deaths of her father Michael and stepfather Greg Martin, the failed final appeal, and the absence of her sister Mercedes from visiting the jail while she fought a defamation action against the Seven Network in Australia.
The second part of the documentary Schapelle Corby: The Hidden Truth will air on the Nine Network tomorrow night.

Equity market neutral strategies take offsetting long and short positions in similarly mispriced securities. They are considered to be close relatives of long/short strategies, the key distinction being the degree of systematic risk that a manager is willing to bear. A manager who is not keen on bearing systematic risk at any time can be regarded as a market neutral manager. Managers profit during economic upturns when their long holdings appreciate quicker than the decline in value of their short positions. In periods of economic downturn, they profit when their short positions appreciate quicker than the decline in value of their long holdings. In this issue's trading strategy forum, a market neutral manager provides readers with a clearer and more informed understanding of the investment potential of this strategy and his firm's particular approaches to capturing the return/risk trade-offs within the market neutral strategy.

Transferring photos onto fabric
Also, I just want to say how much I am enjoying reading everyone's comments and blogs. I feel like I am part of a village of beaders, a community of creativity, and am very happy to be living here.

There are several brands of fabric "paper" available to print on. Most fabric or hobby stores carry these in packaged 8x10" sheets.
If you want to try using existing fabric from your stash, freezer paper wrap can be ironed onto fabric to stabilize it for printing on -- it will not be waterproof but it works.
There is also another waterproof method for using your own fabric that involves soaking the fabric in a solution of fabric softener. I will find the recipe for you if you are interested in attempting this process.

Thanks for the comment about liking my pages with the photos and beads. What Kathy said was all true and if you want it to be fairly simple for your first attempt I would go with the prepackaged fabric "paper" That is what I used for my June page and it worked really well and the photos came out great.
Each month I have been discussing what I am printing my photos on since that is part of what I want to learn during this process, some will be printed onto a surface and others will be photo transfer techniques.
I just got a book "More Photo Fun" by the HP Company with Cyndy Lyle Rymer and Lynn Koolish which looks like it might have some good ideas. "Quilting Arts" and "Cloth, Paper, Scissors" magazines also have alot of great articles on how different people have used photos in their art.
I would say that you could print onto any surface that you are willing to bead through and that will fit through your printer although different surfaces take ink differently and you will have to experiment on how to get the results that you want. Also not all surfaces will be waterproof so you may want to spray on a poly-acrylic or varnish to protect your surface.
Hope somewhere in this you find something helpful if you want any more info or have questions feel free to e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Good luck, I know I am really glad that I decided to try incorporating my photos onto my pages.

Hey, a2susan, I like living here too. Don't know how happy my husband is about it though! lol

I use the prepared photo transfer paper most of the time. This month I have used a photo transfer using
"Printed Treasures" paper by Milliken and it just goes right through the printer with no problem.

- a2susan said...
Thank you for your suggestions. I had never heard of Printed Treasures paper before but I will try and find some and experiment with it - although not too much because it seems very expensive. Susan

You can get a couple of different brands of fabric "paper" at Michaels or JoAnn's Fabric and both have coupons which helps with the price. - Angie

I have been using Jacquard brand Inkjet Printing Fabric for several years. I like it because it does not need to be treated after it is printed, and the colors are great! Sometimes I bump up the color a bit if I am printing onto fabric because the fabric does tend to absorb the ink more than paper. I am also using my own photos printed through my printer for my BJP. This fabric can be purchased either through Dharma Trading or Dick Blick on line. I have found that they are about half the price per sheet of ANY other fabric sheets. So far I have yet to see this brand in a store. If you have any questions about this product, don't hesitate to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com
- July 30, 2007 at 12:07 PM
- a2susan said...
Angela - I love those 40 and 50% coupons off. Krispis - thank you for your recommendation. I never knew there was so much to chose from.

My Dog's Better than Yours
1 comment:
I am all for sticking to the issues and arguing the merits of each. People have the right to their own opinion and that is good. There are times, however, when basic human rights need to be recognized. For example, the right to bear arms, for the safety of all, does not need to include the right to own assault weapons. There are lots of other less dangerous guns that the ordinary citizen can use but, for the safety of all, can we get assault weapons out of the hands of the deranged? Another example, In my opinion,is that all people should have the right to have a civil contract that allows two people to have the legal and financial rights of marriage. The contract is their own business and gender or sex does not need to be a part of a commitment.ReplyDelete
But I think what you are saying is, can we all focus on the issues and not let our political opinions impact our experience of other people. In theory, a good idea. In practice, hard to do, though one does NOT have to be disrespectful in any way. Live and let live?

Coast Guard, UPS, Guam, Mesapotamia....all related somehow
The Coast Guard have been great but they cant wait any longer so their going to reasign me and if I move to Guam they'll move me....however they are making noises about just transferring me into a Port Security unit that is going to Iraq soon.
I don't reaqlly have a problem with this,(I volunteered for Gulf Duty before the knee injury) but PSUs require a 5 year commitment....and 5 years is exactly the ammount of time on acttive duty that UPS needs to fire me under the Soldiers and Sailors Act. Additionally, I want to finish college (one of the reasons I'm looking at Guam)....so I hoping that I can get out of the 5 year commitment and just do a deplyment or two until things are stable again.
I'm also looking at just bailing on UPS and getting a govt. job on either Saipan or Guam. I hope to move to the Marriannas weather or not I get to go to the Gulf.

Intro for July 21, 2017
Dear Gossips,
Are you going to the movies this weekend? Are you going to see Girls Trip? Duana and I podcast Show Your Work on Friday nights. Tonight, after we tape, we're meeting up with Kathleen and a couple of other friends for an 11pm showing. Kathleen, as mentioned earlier this week, has torn her ACL. Girls Trip is the light she's been looking forward to all week. Actually, it's the light she's been looking forward to for months.
Girls Trip is being called the funniest comedy of the year. The reviews have been solid. And, as I mentioned yesterday in What Else?, while Queen Latifah and Jada Pinkett Smith have been the most visible on the press tour, most people who've seen the movie report that it's Regina Hall and Tiffany Haddish who steal the movie. Tiffany Haddish especially. When you can make a "booty hole" joke and still look so f-cking adorable, it's a star-making performance. As was her appearance this week on Jimmy Kimmel – have you seen this yet?
Tiffany talks about the time she took Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith on a "groupon swamp tour" in New Orleans when they were shooting the movie. This is masterful storytelling and even though Will and Jada are basically the butt of the joke, the reason why you're laughing is not because Tiffany is mean – it's actually the opposite. She delivers the details with so much affection and self-deprecation, nobody's walking away from this with any hurt feelings. Which is why this weekend is so exciting. Tiffany Haddish is taking her moment. She did the most she could with that moment on Jimmy Kimmel and she showed her work. According to Sandy Cohen of the Associated Press, "Get ready to know the name Tiffany Haddish. If there were such a thing as Comedy Oscars, she would win for Girls Trip". We are about to enter the time of Tiffany Haddish.
Have a great weekend!
Yours in gossip,
Robert Kamau

MmMmM SUSHI! My obsession continues... Went for lunch on Monday with a new friend to Sakana Grill located at 116 2nd Avenue right beside China Town. We got to talking about sushi recently and she mentioned this is her favorite place in the city. The fish was really clean and fresh (clean meaning it didn't taste fishy) and Sakana also features grill-side dining similar to Japanese Village with a lot of steak and teppan selections. Sakana also has a floating sushi bar, sushi school and takes reservations. We sat on the perimeter of the restaurant instead of the teppan grills and here is what we had. Yum!:
|We chose some tuna and salmon sashimi combo as an appy for $12.20 and what a nice way to start the meal. I liked how the fish was served on ice and really cold instead of room temperature. Great presentation as well and the fish was so fresh.
|Dynamite roll with prawn tempura, smoked salmon, roe and avocado for $10.95. Loved the mayo drizzled on top.

If the average woman begrudges shopping for jeans, imagine what it was like for those in need of a specialty size, like petite, plus or long lengths.
"I used to think I'd never wear jeans again," says Denise, 43. At 4-feet, 9-inches tall, she has always been a petite. But after having three children, she became a plus-size, too. Now she shops the plus-sized chains. "They have jeans that fit — and they don't look like 'grandma' pants, either. No more feeling bad that I'm not a tall, skinny model."
In the U.S., 65 million women age 20 and older – nearly 62% of adult women — are overweight or obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And even though sizes vary in women's apparel, 25% of women say thei r current pant size is 12-14, and nearly 23% are 15+, according to Cotton Incorporated's Lifestyle Monitor™ survey of consumers.
Even if a woman isn't a plus size, if she's short or long of leg, traditional denim outlets can be unkind, forcing her to hem pants that puddle by eight inches or more, or inadvertently sport a modified Thom Browne look.
Cindy is 6-feet, 1-inch, and used to have a hard time finding "long" jeans that were long enough. Luckily, though, she's finding more mainstream retailers, like J. Jill, that can fit her frame.
"Women of all shapes and sizes want the same thing – a selection of fashionable styles designed to fit them," says Betsy Thompson, spokesperson. She says J. Jill's Authentic Fit and Tried & True Fit jeans have wide appeal. Both are available in a full spectrum of sizes – misses 2-20, petite 0-18, tall 4-20 and woman's 14W-28W.
Modern women grew up in jeans, and no matter what their size now, they have no intention of giving up their denim. Nearly 70% of women prefer to wear denim jeans rather than casual slacks, according to the Monitor. And the number of jeans they own has increased to 9 pairs, from 7.7 a year ago.
At Avenue stores, the specialty-sized denim business is "very significant," according to Kellie Brown, spokesperson.
"It is a growing business," she maintains, adding, "Denim is a brand-loyal business. When you find a product that fits you, you tend to return. Avenue has a specific mold created for their customers and Avenue's denim collection definitely has a strong repeat customer."
The Monitor findings validate Brown's assertion. Nearly 80% of all women say "fit/cut/length" is the most important reason a certain brand is their favorite.
Alison Sokolove, fashion editor for The Tobe Report, says creating the right fit for the plus-size is a tough undertaking.
"Svoboda denim does it best since they already specialize in plus sizes," Sokolove says. She adds, though, that more makers are joining the plus-size ranks. "Other labels like James Jeans and PPD will be soon entering the market with exclusive, select styles for stores like Nordstrom and Saks."
The petite market is also ripe for growth. Why? Unlike a suit or special occasion dress, jeans – even premium denim – are considered casual wear. And most women cannot justify the time and expense to have them hemmed.
That's why "petite denim is huge for retailers that carry it, especially specialty stores like Banana Republic or Ann Taylor," Sokolove says. "Most people do not want to pay to tailor the garments. They want it 'as is' off the rack."
J. Jill's Thompson adds that "it's a fallacy to think the only difference between misses and petite sizes is length."
"There are a host of fit specifications that are taken into account to ensure a balanced fit – front rise, back rise, where the knee hits," Thompson says. "Sometimes subtle style adjustments are necessary – like the size and position of back pocket, for example. If you shorten a bootleg, flare or wide leg jeans, you essentially cut off a chunk of the intended design."
Another point to remember about specialtysized customers is that just because they are shorter or bigger than average women does not mean they'll accept less fashionable apparel.
Sokolove says the designers' challenge is to rework a popular look for the different body types.
"It can be challenging to fit a skinny jean to a plus size, or a wide leg on petite, so the trends must be adapted and manipulated," she says. "Maybe it becomes a straight leg instead of a skinny and a modified flare instead of a full-blown wide leg."
Avenue's Brown says the plus-size customer is really no different than the "size 6" customer.
"They want to look just as fashionable as the average size 6 woman," Brown asserts. Avenue makes sure every style it offers is made from the mold and silhouette that caters to its customer, so any customer can pretty much pull off any style.
Avenue now offers exclusive women's lines from top denim designers such as Seven7, Yanuk and Antik Denim. Brown says the designers were presented with Avenue's plus-size specs, so the labels could develop the right fit for the retailer's customer.
Says Brown: "The plus-size customer wants high-end designer jeans as much as their smallersized friends."

Dependency of Muscle Capillary Basement Membrane Thickness on the Duration of Diabetes
Skeletal muscle biopsy specimens were obtained for measuring capillary basement membrane width from 63 male patients with juvenile, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and from 17 healthy controls. Each sample was divided into two portions: one fixed in osmium tetroxide and the other in glutaraldehyde. Measurements were made both of average basement membrane width (BMT) using the multiple measurement techniques of Siperstein et al. and of minimum basement membrane width using the technique of Williamson et al. With both methods, basement membrane thickness appeared to be a function of duration of diabetes.

Obviously, there are a lot of ways to generate new business. I'm going to list a few here in order of effectiveness.
- Cold Calling
- Direct Mail / Sales Letters
- White Papers
- Tradeshows
- Executive Seminars
- Speaking Engagements
Contrary to what a lot of people believe, cold calls can be effective. You just have to be seen as a business peer (not a vendor), provide value, and do not waste their time. The bad part of cold calling is that business people today are busy and rarely enjoy an unsolicited call. This negative attitude has been amplified by thousands of telemarketers irritating people during dinner time with phone calls. But it can still be effective when done properly.

Why we should NOT boycott Target stores
By GARY BAUMGARTEN
Paltalk News Network
A dear friend of mine - a supporter of progressive causes - is wondering if she should jump on the newly launched boycott Target stores bandwagon because of the company's $150,000 contribution to an organization that supports the campaign of a Republican candidate for governor in Minnesota. And she wonders why Target hasn't responded to the allegations that it is anti-gay.
Not only should she not join the boycott - but Target has answered the allegations (more on that in a minute).
Target made a campaign contribution to an organization that supports Tom Emmer, a Republican candidate for governor who opposes same-sex marriages. It's fair enough to criticize this but to make the quantum leap that it's proof Target is anti-gay - as some gay groups who have joined the boycott organized by MoveOn.org contend - is blatantly unfair.
Target has a reputation for supporting progressive ideals. It supports local schools, food pantries and is - hold onto your seats! - a financial contributor to the Twin Cities' annual gay pride parade!
Target's CEO says the corporation's political contributions - like those of so many other companies who are tossing money at campaigns since the Supreme Court stupidly ruled they could - are strategic to their business interests. Most of these corporations - by the way - hedge their political bets by contributing to both campaigns.
Here's what the CEO, Gregg Steinhafel, told the LA Times:
"Let me be very clear: Target's support of the [gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender] community is unwavering, and inclusiveness remains a core value of our company."
MoveOn, which launched the boycott Target petition drive, is trying to couch this as an anti-corporations making political contributions effort. But the fact that they chose this particular contribution to this particular candidate was strategic on MoveOn's part. It was a successful attempt to raise the concerns of people who support gay rights. Which has become the overriding issue here. Some people actually mistakenly believe that Target is being - targeted - because of anti-gay hiring practices!
The message that was delivered to my friend was that Target is anti-gay. Which, evidence to the contrary proves, it is not.
MoveOn, of course knows all this. The organization is only trying to create a name for itself at the expensive of the company. And is, in the process, creating angst for those of us who want to do the right thing.
Like Breitbart, who was loose with the facts about Shirley Sherrod in order to make a political point, MoveOn has just slipped to the near bottom of my credibility meter.
I'd say MoveOn owes Target an apology. But really, that's not enough.
It owes my friend - and the rest of us - one as well.
