Smart Assembly using ultrasonic technology
Intelligent textiles of any kind have to be assembled during the final production step. This means that the individual components have to be combined into a final product (e. g. a piece of clothing) using a joining technology. Here traditionally a sewing machine is used. Usually intelligent textiles (in leisure, sports outdoor, protective clothing) are also technical textiles; in this case assembly by ultrasonic is a modern future-oriented and economical alternative to sewing. PFAFF Industrial has been dealing with this technology for more than 25 years.

Get Sorority News & Updates!
he start of August can mean a time of change. For some of us, one of the biggest changes is happening - the transition from high school to college. This is the perfect opportunity - especially if you're thinking about participating in sorority recruitment - to take a step back and ask yourself about your personal brand.
Your personal brand is who you want to be and how you present yourself to the world. Ask yourself "Who am I? What do I value? Who do I want to portray myself as?"
Personal branding is the practice of people marketing themselves and their careers as brands. It's essentially the ongoing process of establishing a specific image or impression in the mind of others about an individual, group, or organization.
Why is personal branding important?
For most sorority members, their personal brand is often tied to values. So if you're going to go through recruitment, it helps to know what you value — what is important to you. Everything you consume or post on social media should relate to your values. This will help you prepare for recruitment and show chapter members a glimpse of who you are.
In addition, your personal branding is important because:
Short term: You're in what can be a vulnerable time period where you're trying to figure out who you are because you're being exposed to something new. Identifying what you value and how you want to be perceived can help your self-image and self-esteem.
Long term: Your future career relies on knowing your brand
People are Googling you at every stage of your career
More than half of employers won't hire potential candidates without some sort of online presence today
Helps distinguish yourself from your competitors
Can lead to interviews, job placements, promotions, and more
When you're ready to share your personal brand with the world, the quickest way to build your brand is through social media. Once you've established what your brand is, create social media content surrounding that brand. Look for examples through the most famous instagrammers' pages. Your goal with social media is to create content that anyone who knows you can see the content and automatically associate it to you. For example, if you are a person who often travels, your content should be stunning landscapes and extraordinary adventures. Or if you're a fashion guru, create content showing off the unique style you have or where your most recent purchases were.
Social Media Tips:
Be genuine - People follow you to see you, so don't try to be someone you aren't. Focus on what makes you… well, you!
Know your target audience - create content that is aimed towards what your followers want to see. Are you philanthropic? Studious? Adventurous? Show it off! They want to see you do your thing.
Keep an aesthetic - Everyone has an aesthetic. Find yours! Keep your feed pleasing by 1) using the same editing style on all of your posts 2) mixing up the type of content you're posting - go from a close up photo to a wide shot 3) make it easy on the eyes - you don't want to have too much happening on your feed.
Create constantly - set aside time to capture the things that are happening in your life. Even if not everything you capture is post-worthy, it's good to capture just in case.
At the end of the day, what matters is being genuine to who you are, both in your personal life and your personal brand.
Guess which of these successful women started in a sorority?

How The System Was Invented
This system was painstakingly created by two businessmen who spent countless thousands of hours developing the system. They started with a data base of past winning numbers of the Arizona Lotto, combined it with statistical methods, game theory, probability studies and mathematical models to come up with this highly sophisticated, but simple-to-use system. While they were developing the Lotto-Tech system, they examined virtually all the existing systems available and found most of them to be too complicated, too expensive, and statistically unsound. After experimentation and study, they devised this proven and unique system for selecting potentially winning lottery numbers.

Put The Odds In Your Favor
It would be foolish to play Blackjack in Las Vegas without understanding the basic rules of the game. (Like when to take a hit, when to double down, when to stand pat, etc.) Similarly, it is just as foolish to select numbers on the Arizona Lotto that have virtually no chance of winning. You are wasting your money. We don't guarantee that you will win, but we show you the numbers that can't win and the columns to put your favorite numbers so they have the best odds to win.

Nicknames are lovingly given to replace someone's real name. For example, is there anything more endearing than "Schmoopey"? (It's what I sometimes call my dog. A pet name, so to speak.) Or, the diminutive for someone who is "ace" at something might be my daughter, Annaclaire. Her initials are "ACB," thus the spinoffs "Ace," or "Acey." For those not in a rush, they go for the full three-syllable, "A-C-B."
My entire name is Bonni Dee Kogen Brodnick. Over the years, I've accumulated multifarious sobriquets:
Miss Bon-Bon
Benni (I think Elton John wrote a song about me. Click here.)
Bonni B.
CloBon (a derivation of "Cloudette Bonni")
Scoop (This was particularly clever because it was rendered when I wrote a weekly newspaper column, "Talk of the Town" for the Bedford-Pound Ridge Record-Review. I'd hear from across the street, "Hey, Scoooooop!" and knew exactly who was calling me.)
Bonomo Sugar
I love all of them. I truly appreciate that someone wants to bestow me with a moniker other than Bonni Dee Kogen Brodnick. That they should feel close to me. Love me, if you will.
But, if you don't know me well, don't call me by a nickname. E.g., don't call me "Bon" too soon in our relationship. Also, if I'm at a business meeting, say I'm discussing the media tactics for a new campaign and someone whom I just met asks, "So, Bonnzi, what do you think?" I think you're getting a little too personal. You might as well add, "Old friend, old pal" and whack me on the back.
So, play it safe. Keep a distance. Call me "Bonni." You'll know in your heart when the time is right to use one of my nicknames. I promise you, Flippy.

Earth Day
Yesterday in honor of Earth Day I decided to get my green thumb on. A couple weeks back, I picked up some seeds while I was out shopping. I got home all excited to plant them and realized I didn't have any dirt... Or a place to plant them! So into a drawer they went. Since yesterday was Earth Day I decided to go out and get the necessary accoutrements to successfully become a plant mamma. I went to the nearest (aka only) nursery, picked up some succulents, grabbed a couple of pots and, of course, a bag of dirt!
I grew up always surrounded by my mom's garden and didn't realize how much I missed not having plant life around me! I don't exactly have the facilities to allow a full on garden, but I'm hoping that a few flower pots scattered around will do the trick!

You've a fantastic work in your blog. Congrats mate. ;)ReplyDelete
great take on the black mage man!ReplyDelete
I'd like to have a technical question, which would help me a lot. You have a kind of colorful effect on the edges of your shapes on a lot of pictures, and I'd like to know how you do that (probably in photoshop). If it's too complicated to explain here, but you have any tutorial you can point me to, I'd be very happy!
Hi Robert! The effect is called chromatic aberration and you can apply it with Photoshop via Filter -> Distortion -> Lens Correction (two sliders on the right).ReplyDelete

Resume tips for senior positionsTuesday, July 28, 2009
A resume is a tool that sells you, though what should be the content is very much debatable as I found. My friend, a 40- year old guy working in a publishing house really cannot figure out what should be the content of his resume. In a senior management position for the last 5 years and with 18 years of experience behind his grey hair, he's at his wits end to figure out how to go about writing his resume. Well! Do you find yourself in the same boat, not knowing what to write to portray yourself as the best? What is important and what isn't and what skills should be enlisted? Don't lose your sleep over it and check out these simple tips.
- Have a functional resume: Avoid the chronological format; rather, have the functional resume to enumerate your skills. For more check out: Functional Vs Chronological Resumes. You can also have a targeted resume, a hybrid of the two formats.
- Have a resume replete with keywords: Sprinkle keywords throughout stressing on your expertise. If you're not aware of the keywords, you can check out, Keywords for your resume You can also do a research or check out Google for key words in your industry to make the resume impactful. These days, increasingly, keywords are becoming necessary when registering for a job vacancy on the web boards. So, give it due importance.
- Have a different vocabulary: Don't use an oft-repeated vocabulary, which is more conducive to the under 20s, like dependable, conscientious discharge of duties, reliable, good communicator. It should be evident from your resume that you have these qualities in abundance and that goes without saying.
- Showcase leadership: At this level you definitely need to showcase yourself as an effective leader and team mentor. Mention figures, number of employees led/trained/mentored, turnover figures, revenues, etc as relevant to your function. Ability to manage and lead processes and systems and set standards are all a part of showcasing leadership.
- You shouldn't put irrelevant details: Never mention irrelevant details like your reasons for leaving; year of birth; current or past remuneration; pay expectations; religion; number of children; hobbies; marital status and drab details of secondary education. These are best left out. You've much better things to talk about in terms of achievements.
- Your transferable skills: Remember, at a higher level, you're not required to perform every job per se. Employers are mainly interested in the knowledge transfer possibilities from a senior person. Hence, never use a summary in the resume with just so many years of experience, rather spell out the specialization, the knowledge you're bringing with your age and experience.
- Avoid using software templates or dedicated computer programs: Using these, you'll land up nowhere as they rarely convey your uniqueness to others. Rather give a personal touch to every resume you send out.
- Mention the type of working relationship you're offering: This is an important aspect, be it a full-time engagement, part-time work, contractual service, project-related consultant or a general consultant, job-share, home-based work (telecommuting), etc. The recruiter must be made aware of your availability and work limitations prior to the interview stage. Never leave this info for the last.
- Mention the details: Apart from the mentioning the basics like that of your telephone and mobile connection numbers and the e-mail id, these days, it's savvy to have a personal website. In case you've it, flaunt it as the recruiter gets abundant knowledge about you at a glance. If you don't, it's not a disgrace. Other personal information is sufficient.
- Stick to an appropriate length: There's no hard and fast rule for a particular length but it should never be content heavy and sound repetitive. Choose the words carefully to make a really impactful resume. Though a resume actually varies from industry to industry, the resume should never be more than three pages long. In case of an IT person, the project details can be added as an annexure.
A resume is vital and never undermine its importance. So tailor-make a resume each time you apply for a position tweaking it suitably to make yourself most suited for the job. Remember, in today's technology driven world, social networking helps greatly, but higher management positions are generally available through word-of-mouth. Always, scrutinise your resume to make sure that the resume isn't a litany of your working life but more of a forward-looking communication about what you are and how you can contribute.

Regardless of the inspiration behind these two tunes, it's safe to say that if you're looking for your own chart-topper or an addition to your greatest hits album, maybe you should check out this guitar riff. Vocally the songs stray, but tuning that out, Pearl Jam's "Even Flow" is a quicker-paced version of Soundgarden's "Hands All Over." Both songs were some of the bands' biggest hits and featured on their greatest hits albums. This is solid '90s rock, leading me to think Pearl Jam was just jamming out to Soundgarden when they graced us with this song – there's only a two year difference in release dates. What do you think?
Comment on the parts you think sound alike.

Miguel Caló was born on October 28, 1907, in Buenos Aires. At the age of 16 he started his musical education, first playing violin for a year, and then bandoneon after it.
Caló began performing in 1925. In 1926 he joined Osvaldo Fresedo's orchestra. A year later, in 1927, he became a member of Francisco Pracanico's orchestra that was performing at the Astral theatre. During that period Miguel Caló formed his own group that survived for only few months. In 1929, he became a part of a group with which he toured Spain and Europe.
After the invitation from Osvaldo Fresedo in 1931, Miguel Caló went to New York. In 1934 he did his first studio recording. Miguel's style was strongly influenced by Fresedo, however his success in 1940s – according to many opinions – was a result of intelligent blend of brilliant young musicians.

ON AIR - The Love Zone
with Rob Allen
Last month, Ed Sheeran confirmed that he would be making an appearance in popular HBO drama Game of Thrones, much to the excitement of fans.
Naturally, the world was dying to know who he would be playing. Will he be riding on the back of one of Daenerys Targaryen's dragons? Will he be drinking wine with Cersei Lannister? Will he be fighting alongside Jon Snow, making them the ultimate television duo? We need to know.
via Giphy
Well, luckily, Ed has been revealing some news details about his cameo and we couldn't be more excited.
Speaking to the Daily Star, the Shape of You singer said that he does know who he'll be playing and has said "I don't die in it, I don't die." While he does say "I'm only in it for like five minutes," the fact his character isn't killed off does leave open the possibility for a return.
He also revealed that he'd rather a sexier role in the series, explaining "I'd probably prefer to have sex than die in the show. I'm sure a lot of people are into that (have sex and die) but I'm not."
The publication reports that Ed was brought in because Maisie Williams, who plays Arya Stark, was a massive fan of his. The pair are said to have shot a scene together last November.
Game of Thrones actress Maisie Williams is said to be a massive fan of Ed Sheeran's music.
Ed has been keen to get involved with the show, explaining "My friend (Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody) guested in it in 2012 and I remember I was on tour with him and he was like: 'Right, I've got a guest slot on Game of Thrones.' I remember saying: 'You've got to get me on it at some point... It's been five years so it's finally come true."
Season 7 of Game of Thrones is set to kick off on the 16th of July, 2017.

Sexual Harassment: An Illegal Conduct Punishable Under All State Laws
While the anti-sexual harassment mandate of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act is imposed only on employers with at least 15 employees, there are laws enforced by the U.S. Department of State which strictly prohibit any form of sexual harassment and which warns offenders of appropriate corrective actions if allegations regarding such acts are found credible.
Sexual harassment, as defined by the U.S. Department of State, is any form of unwanted or undesirable requests for sexual favors, sexual advances or physical/verbal conduct of a sexual nature which can affect a person's employment or his/her work performance. This illegal act may be committed either through the Quid Pro Quo type of sexual harassment of through the Hostile Environment.
Quid Pro Quo is committed by a workplace authority, such as the employer, a manager, a supervisor, etc., who has the capability to grant rewards or exact punitive actions. Thus, an employee's promotion, benefits, awards, and other job incentives would be conditioned by his/her acceptance of, or refusal to, the sexual requests or advances made on him/her.
In a Hostile Environment, the perpetrator of the illegal act can be a superior, a (senior, junior or same level) co-worker, a customer, or anyone the victim interacts with in the workplace. This type of sexual harassment may be committed through: display of pornographic or sexually explicit materials; comments on the victim's physical attributes or way of dressing; use of offensive or indecent language; unnecessary touching; repeated sexual teasing or sexual pranks; intentional brushing up against the victim; and, repeated suggestive sexual gestures.
Every year the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) receives about 15,000 sexual harassment complaints from both female and male employees, though, many more are believed to be unreported. Due to this, the website of law firm Cary Kane LLP says that victims need not be afraid nor keep silent as this will only allow the perpetrators of this illegal act to go on with their offensive and unlawful conduct. The best thing to do, once a person feels and believes that he/she is being sexually harassed, is to get in touch with a lawyer immediately for the possible legal action that may need to be taken.

Performing with bassist/compsoer Carl Testa at Constellation in Chicago.
Carl Testa will present an expanded version of his piece Ultraviole for five clarinets and live electronic processing which was premiered in Amsterdam at the Doek Festival in June 2015. The ensemble navigates a partially composed and improvised score while continually undergoing live electronic processing by the composer that influences the direction of the composition. John Sharpe of The New York City Jazz Record wrote "Carl Testa's 'Ultraviolet' subtly blended acoustic and electronic noises as well as notated and improvised materials to conjure a splendidly successful piece, a sort of glacial minimalism expanded and subverted by the electronic overtones."
Carl Testa - Ultraviolet
James Falzone - Bb clarinet
Jeff Kimmel - bass clarinet

Staff Sgt. Matthew Loheide heard the sound and looked up. He had expected the bomb falling from the sky to target an insurgent position 200 yards away. Instead, it was going to land perilously close to Loheide and his men.
Before he blacked out, Loheide realized that their already difficult day was about to get a lot worse.
On June 27, 2010, Loheide was serving in Afghanistan as a platoon sergeant with the U.S. Army's 2d Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division. He had already completed three tours in Iraq.

Best Welding Helmet 2018 - Guide & Reviews
When it involves welding, not anything is greater important than having the satisfactory welding helmet to your desires. Being capable of seeing what you're doing while also being included from blinding lights and sparks are essential to make sure your fitness and safety at the activity.
I've been welding and grinding for years, and I've had plenty of enjoyment with diverse helmets, and I want to proportion my know-how with you today. Whether you're an amateur welder or a veteran like me, you can find what you're searching out right here Best auto darkening welding helmets.
I have managed a list of some of the first-rate helmets you could locate anywhere, in addition to creating an available guide to help you find out the right helmet to your paintings site.
Choosing the Best Welding Helmet
Back in the old days, selecting a helmet changed into a far less stressful method. Most of the welders had a unit with a single color that they used for all jobs. These days, however, the cutting-edge generation has made the average welding helmet plenty extra sophisticated.
So that means which you want to pay a bit extra interest to what functions are offered. That being stated, here are 5 things to keep in mind while picking out your helmet.
Standard vs. Auto Darkening
When I first began out my welding profession, I used a hand-me-down from my dad. His became a vintage faculty, general shade helmet. It labored fine for the maximum of my jobs, but once I got a taste of automatic, I knew that I should in no way go lower back.
A vehicle darkening helmet is a device that senses while you are operating and adjusts the shade level for this reason. That manner, you can see what you're doing while no longer welding, and you could set the whole thing on your personal preference. Here are some pros and cons of every kind.
View Screen Size
Personally, I feel like one of the greater important components of a welding helmet is the viewing location. If you couldn't see what you're doing, then what's the factor?
I favor to have a helmet with a wider view display so I can see more of the entirety, but lamentably most computerized helmets have a narrow window with which to work.
Part of the motive is that a smaller surface location requires less power for the sensors, so you are going to get much less screen space than you would with a standard shade version.
Nonetheless, positive helmets have wider viewing areas than others, so locate one which suits your eyesight the exceptional and go together with that.
Welding Rating
As I referred to above, a part of the purpose human beings bears in mind automated helmets because the satisfactory welding helmets these days is they can be adjusted to work on a greater variety of activity websites than a standard model.
Thus, while deciding on your helmet, make sure that it's far rated for the type of work you'll be doing. For the maximum part, all helmets are designed for Stick, MIG, and TIG welding, however now not all of them are appropriate for laser or plasma welding, not to mention grinding.
Depending on your work, make certain to get a unit which could take care of it all.
Design and Color
At certainly one of my first job sites, they issued all people a helmet when you obtain employed. Since they were all standard, absolutely everyone got an all-black layout. To help us keep the music of them, they needed to spray paint massive numbers on the side, so we didn't get them mixed up.
Thankfully, with my present-day activity, we can use our helmets, which means that I can pick out a layout and color scheme that matches my fashion.
Depending on the emblem you get, you may be able to pick out from a variety of various helmets, which additionally approach that you could stand proud of anyone else, and you don't should fear about every body by accident taking it (despite the fact that intentionally is some other tale).
Finally, the final component you should observe on your helmet is whether or not or now not it's miles well suited with a tough hat or a cheater lens.
Depending on the paintings you do, a difficult that may be necessary; this means that your helmet has to house the bigger size. Most welding helmets can be custom designed to suit a difficult hat, however no longer they all.
Similarly, cheater lenses can be essential for your paintings (or in case you choose to work with a magnifier like me), which means that which you need a helmet that could keep an extra lens. Many of the better stop fashions can try this; however, if you get an inexpensive model, you may now not be capable of.
Antra AH6-260-0000 Solar Power Auto Darkening Welding Helmet
As one of the great manufacturers of welding helmets available on the market these days, I even have to mention that I have splendid admire for all Antra products.
This brand has an inherent ability for attention to an element, and most of the goods they make are top-great. The degree of detail is well-known on all Antra helmets, so it's becoming that we're kicking off the list with the AH6-260-0000 Auto Darkening Helmet.
When speaking about automobile-darkening capabilities, what's surely critical is the range of sensors. The naked minimum you can escape with is two (one on both side), but the AH6 has you blanketed by supplying four.
That manner flashing is much less of a challenge average, and you may get the most specific color adjustment viable.
AUDET Solar Auto Darkening Welding Helmet
If you want greater bang for your buck, then our next helmet, the AUDEW Auto is for you.
While this is not pretty at the extent of the Antra AH6, I have to mention that I am nonetheless inspired via the performance of this version. As a bonus, I even like the skull design that includes it.
As I referred to, while speaking about auto-darkening helmets, you have to take note of the quantity of sensors. While this specific version best has two, they do paintings remarkably nicely.
Personally, I'm constantly paranoid approximately flashing. However, this helmet appears to do the process as well as something with four sensors, so that you don't ought to worry.The mask also turns on and rancid mechanically to help maintain the battery.
For many welders, this is the nice welding helmet to go for. An excellent choice!
Antra AH7-860-0000 Solar Power Auto Darkening Welding Helmet
Most of all, we come to the Antra AH7-860-0000 Auto Darkening Helmet. Much just like the AH6 version, this helmet has the whole thing you're searching out.
When evaluating this to the Jackson Safety Insight, both helmets have a whole lot of comparable features, that is why they are both my top alternatives.
First off, this helmet has four unbiased sensors, because of this that flashing is much less of a situation, and you could cross from mild to darkish amazingly rapid.
Other capabilities of this helmet consist of clean to apply digital controls, a step-much less postpone gadget, customizable color settings, and a sun-powered rechargeable battery. The batteries are also without difficulty replaceable and built to last up to 5000 hours earlier than wanting to be modified.
Final Verdict
When seeking to choose out the fine welding helmet, it could be tough to pick. Overall, but, my top picks might be anything with four sensors and the potential to paintings with a cheater lens.
I might pretty propose the Jackson Safety Helmet, each Antra Models, or the Instapark ADF helmet.
That's no longer to mention that the others are less nice or will not paintings effectively, but given my years of experience, I understand what I like.
If you're only beginning out, but, you can locate that sure features are greater vital than others, relying on your work and personal options.
If you are looking for which you need more vital records to make your thoughts. Read our new welding helmet reviews on your website online.

Volvo Cars of North America is recalling almost 31,000 vehicles due to problems with low-oil-pressure warning systems. The model years being recalled are 2011 and 2012. The only vehicles affected are S60 sedans with 5-cylinder B5254TS engines. The recall has occurred because the vehicles may not alert the driver of a low-oil-pressure problem. The low oil pressure could stall the car, resulting in a crash.
The problem was discovered after a mechanic performing routine maintenance on a Volvo forgot to put oil in the engine before the owner drove off. After driving 35 miles, she started to hear engine noise. Her engine had to be replaced, but her low-oil-pressure light never came on. The problem with the vehicles is software related. Volvo is updating software in the vehicle free of charge to fix the problem. According to Volvo, the recall is voluntary. However, after a manufacturer becomes aware of a safety problem, it must inform federal officials within 15 days of its plan for a recall, or it may face fines.
Despite the rules, many automakers do not issue recalls as they should. They may choose to bury the problem, pretending they aren't aware of it until a claim arises. They may believe that it's cheaper to pay claims for those who are injured or killed in accidents than it is to do a comprehensive recall. Or they may refuse to do a recall, like Jeep did earlier this year before caving into a request for a recall from federal officials.
If you have been injured or a loved one has been killed because of a safety defect with a vehicle, call the personal injury attorneys at Kennedy Hodges in Houston. Our attorneys are knowledgeable about personal injury claims, and will be happy to help you with your case.

The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes
Thanks to the painters, I've been sorting through what seems like centuries of STUFF, throwing away ruthlessly and forcing various members of my family to do the same. My daughter has a trick guaranteed to drive me to despair, one she's been using with great effectiveness for most of her twelve years. It involves choosing a book that meant everything to me as a child, holding it out at arms length, and proclaiming some version of, "I hate this book, do I have to keep it?" When pressed, she'll tell me it was too scary, too boring, too old-fashioned. Always too-something. A person could cry. I almost offered to read The Country Bunny to her tonight, but she's so happy sleeping on the sofa while her room is being painted (no pretence of books required, she can watch TV until the very second the lights go off) that I didn't dare risk the rejection.
And so I retire with teary nostalgia and my old copy of the story of the brave country bunny who challenges the long-legged jack rabbits for the job of Easter bunny -- my very first feminist book. Our heroine goes on to bring up a vast multitude of babies as a single mother, all the while aiming for, and finally achieving her dream of a difficult career as an egg-deliverer. My mother had fantastic taste in picture books, and I don't remember telling her they were too boring. Though now that I think about it, my sisters and I were very horrible to poor mom about her favourite book -- Little Women. I have memories of calling her Marmeeeeee for weeks.
Unfortunately, The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes is one of those books that never really made it to England, but it's available on Amazon, and if you've missed having it for Easter this year, buy it early for next.
Speaking of eggs, I'm settling down for Easter with Natasha Walter's Living Dolls: The Return of Sexism. Maybe the answer for the next generation is to makes sure they've had their feminist literature drummed in early. Though how we're supposed to manage that when they're too busy blow-drying their hair and putting on make-up, I don't know.

Work is underway on part of a Northampton DIY store's site as a supermarket firm gets ready to move in.
Aldi will move into the building yard and trade entrance of B&Q in Towcester Road in the next few weeks.
It follows the opening of a LIdl supermarket just down the road, on the former site of one of the gas holders.
Aldi itself is expanding in Northampton and the company has recently launched a store in Weston Favell. It still retains the option to build on the former Chronicle & Echo site in Upper Mounts.
Marius Manolescu, Aldi regional managing director, said the Weston Favell and Towcester Road stores are looking to fill 30 roles: "The new store on Towcester Road, and the popularity of the Weston Favell store has created a significant number of employment opportunities.
"We are looking to attract applicants from a diverse range of backgrounds, including supermarket, fast-food and clothing chains, who can demonstrate relevant experience, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment."
The supermarket is also seeking people with management experience for its deputy store manager positions.

Reduce Wisdom Teeth Swelling

Swollen Wisdom Teeth CausesHow to Reduce Wisdom Teeth SwellingWisdom Teeth Swelling Can Lead to InfectionHow Long Does Wisdom Teeth Swelling Last?
Wisdom teeth swelling can be a problem for patients both before and after wisdom teeth extraction surgery. As the wisdom teeth grow in, they can push into other teeth, causing overcrowding and irritation.
For wisdom teeth swelling caused or exacerbated by pieces of food lodged in the area, rinsing the mouth out with salt water or an oral rinse recommended by your dentist can remove trapped food and clean the area, allowing your body to reduce swelling and pain.Other ways to reduce wisdom teeth swelling include cold compresses, ice chips, or ice packs applied to the area or to the face. Over-the-counter pain relievers that contain an anti-inflammatory will also help reduce wisdom teeth swelling, which can make eating, opening your jaw, talking, and everyday life much more comfortable.
As always, however, if you are experiencing wisdom teeth swelling, make an appointment with your dentist to evaluate your situation. It's possible that your wisdom teeth swelling may be due to impacted wisdom teeth, which can cause complications of their own. Cysts, or more rarely, tumors can form around the trapped wisdom tooth. Infection is another complication of impacted wisdom teeth. Oral infections can easily become severe complications or go systemic, damaging your overall health.
Wisdom teeth swelling and bruising are other complications that can arise following extraction surgery. Wisdom tooth extraction surgery, especially in the case of impacted wisdom teeth, can be a traumatic procedure. In time, with the help of ice packs, cold compresses, over-the-counter anti-inflammatories, etc., the wisdom teeth swelling you experience will gradually go down.Sources:

Oakland OKs money for surveillance center
(07-31) 11:13 PDT OAKLAND -- The Oakland City Council voted unanimously early Wednesday to move ahead with a controversial surveillance center that could eventually allow police and city officials to continuously monitor video cameras, gunshot detectors and license plate readers.
The issue was one of two high-profile measures that came before the council in a meeting that began Tuesday evening. Members also approved a ban at protests on items such as hammers and spray paint cans, on the grounds that vandals could use them as weapons.
The decision to accept a $2.2 million federal grant to help pay for the surveillance center infuriated protesters who crowded into the council's chambers for an hours-long meeting. Chants of "Shame! Shame! Shame!" rattled the chambers for nearly two minutes after the vote.
"This is a disaster and it is going to last for years," Cynthia Morse yelled as she stared down members of the council.
At issue was the Domain Awareness Center, a proposed city and port surveillance center that would link dozens of traffic and surveillance cameras with police and fire dispatch systems, Twitter feeds, crime maps, gunshot-detecting microphones and alarm programs.
City officials say the federally funded center would allow authorities to improve their response to crime, terrorism, earthquakes, fires or hazardous materials incidents.
"The most important purpose of the center is to save lives by coordinating real-time information," said Renee Domingo, the city's director of emergency services.
But dozens of speakers said that was a ruse, and that the center would inevitably turn Oakland into a police state.
"The Domain Awareness Center is the guard tower which will watch over every person in the city of Oakland," said Mark Raymond, 20. "This program is an attempt to criminalize and imprison all people who live and pass through Oakland."
Once it is operational in July 2014, the center on Martin Luther King Jr. Way will be monitored 24 hours a day by a police officer, a police analyst and a person from the Port of Oakland, Domingo said. The center will eventually cost $10.9 million in federal grants.
Analysts will be able to use large screen to match video feeds paired with crime maps or audio recording of gunfire and government and media alerts.
The resolution to accept a $2.2 million federal grant first came up for a City Council vote on July 16. The council postponed a decision at the time, after opponents said there were no controls to ensure that the information the comes into the center wouldn't be improperly shared or used to invade people's privacy.
Three council members added amendments ordering city officials to draft privacy rules. But Linda Lye, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union, said the council hadn't gone far enough.
"What they did is approve a vast surveillance center without understanding the implications," Lye said after the vote. "The privacy policies would be drafted only after the center is built. At that point, what opportunity will there be for to determine if the safeguards are sufficient?"
Councilwoman Libby Schaaf said she had tried to balance individual privacy rights with the city's need for security.
"We have tried our best to find the sweet spot where are going to take advantage of the tools that we have at hand to make our city safe. ... We have done everything we can to safeguard privacy," Schaaf said before being drowned out by boos, howls and calls of "Fascism!"
One protester later suggested that Schaaf "go home to your mansion and kill yourself."
After voting to accept the surveillance center grant, the council approved a proposal banning protesters from carrying hammers, slingshots, clubs, wrenches, spray paint and other potentially destructive items during demonstrations.
Councilman Noel Gallo introduced the measure after protesters, angered by George Zimmerman's acquittal in the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Florida, smashed windows and spray-painted buildings in downtown Oakland.
During one of several protests in the days after the verdict, a vandal took a hammer to the face of a waiter trying to protect the restaurant Flora on Telegraph Avenue. The waiter was injured but has recovered.
Oakland first tried to ban such items from demonstrations in 2012, when Occupy Oakland protesters broke downtown windows on several occasions. A council committee shelved the idea after activists disrupted a meeting, saying the effort was a violation of their freedom of speech.
In approving the ban early Wednesday, several council members said they had had enough of the vandalism. No members opposed the measure; Councilman Dan Kalb abstained.
"What has concerned me about protests in Oakland is how destructive they have been," said Councilwoman Lynette Gibson McElhaney.

Homesteading ~ Self Sufficiency
We're tired of buying food we don't know where it came from, and how inhumane the animals were treated. We're willing to learn what our ancestors knew for thousands of years. Meat is special, not for everyday, but for occasions that we can share it, and know where it comes from. There is a need to learn the ways of old, and to be keepers of the home.
Butchering a fatted young rooster was for a Sunday meal. Breadmaking was done one day for the week. Seasonal eating was the norm, and asparagus was a spring treat, just like strawberries and cherries were summer sweets. Honey was extra special, and herbs were for healing. Homemakers knew how to make cheese, butter, yogurt and ice cream. Cheese was often made in the spring when the grass began to grow lush and long, and the cows had rich milk.
There was no boxed cereals, or packaged foods. We used to know the source from where all our food came from. Life and death on the farm was normal, and the kids participated in all aspects of it. They knew the pig was going to be butchered in the fall, and good ham and bacon would be on the menu. Everything was fresh, dried, fermented or canned. Even refrigerators and freezers are new to this era.
We need to go back and learn, I'm speaking to myself, my squeamish self, that has never butchered an animal, letting my son do the deed. I want to get meat chickens and raise them for our family to be ready for Fall butchering. You see I'm learning too, how easy it is to buy meat in cellophane and not think about the animal that used to be alive, where did it live, in what kind of conditions...I want to know.
If you've ever read Michael Pollen's "Omnivore's Dilemma" you'll get a glimpse of what grocery store food is like. Corn is the base of many products, way more than you'd ever imagine, even the animals we eat are fed corn. In reality the best thing for most animals to eat is grass, fresh greens, things that are alive and full of vitamins and minerals. The ability to be free and live without stress in a small farm with love is what I want to achieve for my animals. I'm willing to learn, right along with a whole generation who have forgotten how it's done.
My dream is to be more self sufficient, we're still a ways off, but are on the right track. I appreciate talking and learning from others and see what small steps they're taking. Some of you are raising cattle, pigs, and sheep, I'm not there yet, but we are raising animals on a small scale, like chickens, rabbits, and goats for milk. These can be raised even in most cities now, as more people want grow their own food.
How can you start? By doing a little every year, perhaps you could start by growing a garden, planting fruit trees, and learning to make bread. If you're in an apartment you can grow sprouts, possibly even get rabbits. Shop at farmers markets, source local raw honey and fruits and vegetables. Know where you're food comes from, meet the farmers and growers. This could set you on a path to moving to the country and starting your own homestead, or a whole new lifestyle change for the better. It's exciting to sit down to a meal and know much of it came from your own land. That is richness to me. I'd love to hear what you're growing, raising and doing to be more self sufficient?

I like what you have said here. Makes us think and hopefully we are doing a little more every year to becoming more dependant on ourselves than to the grocery stores. Love your blog!

Thanks jdmsmith, it's nice to know there are others out there thinking similar thoughts and doing a little bit more every year towards self sufficiency. That's how I'm doing it, and after 5 years, you can really look back and see how far you've come.

Julie...very well said I couldn't agree more. We are also trying hard to become self sustainable and learning along the way. I remember growing up in the 70's where my family grew everything we ate and it was the normal. Now my grandchildren know very little about where food comes from other then the grocery store. I am trying to teach them that walking through my garden and being able to eat anything they want is a treat and most of their friends couldn't do it. I love how you too are changing the bad habits we all have adopted over the years just like we are!

Hi Tracy,
So nice to hear you're teaching your grandchildren how to eat from the land. , they will have such great memories of your farm and garden, and will probably want a garden to eat from too.
I read the weather today for your part of the country and heard you're having a heat wave. Sure wish a little heat would come our way, and we could share some of the cool temps we're having.
- July 13, 2011 at 1:36 PM
- bluetick said...
A heat wave to say the least...my garden has all but died and I am a bit bummed. Our sandy soil just can't hold enough moisture to keep things growing very long without constant watering and our well just won't handle that during a dry spell. So yes please send cool weather and some much needed rain to my house:) Everything looks so green at your house I love looking at your pictures...reminds me of PA where I grew up. I bet your nursery job this spring added some nice new plants to your gardens I can't wait to see them.

We have had a delightful situation for several years now, raising our own beef, chicken and pork, vegetables and fruit trees, making our own cheese, yogurt and butter. While I'm looking forward to living closer to family, I'm not looking forward to starting all over again! Oh well, guess that's part of the "adventure"! lol

Okay, I've read through many posts and I love your blog! I'm not a farmer or a homesteader. I don't raise chickens, goats, or rabbits. I do grow a small garden and the best part is watching the little grandkids grab a swiss chard leaf or celery to eat. Or hunting for peas and strawberries. I'm glad more and more people are thinking about the way animals are raised and what they're fed. It's a good time to think self-sufficient living.
- July 24, 2011 at 7:20 PM
- Jewel said...
Hi Nancy, Welcome and thanks for reading. It's always nice to hear from others, and what their doing. A vegetable garden is a huge part of living more self suffieciently, and teaching your grandchildren about where their food comes will carry on in them forever. Thanks for the nice comments :)

If your commercial property, restaurant, health care facility, hotel, or other business has tile flooring, cleaning and caring for your flooring can be arduous. Without professional care, the grout between tiles is likely to become dirty and dingy until the original color of the tile and grout is lost. A dirty floor can leave a lasting but unwanted impression on clients, customers, and anyone who visits your property, but scrubbing by hand or with store-bought tools and chemicals is tedious and not very effective. At Midwest, our technicians are experienced in handling the difficult and stubborn accumulations of dirt and grime that become stuck to tile and grout. We use specialized equipment and tools to provide the most effective solution available and restore your tile and grout to their original state.
We believe that you should be proud of your flooring and that its condition can be seen as a reflection of your business or facility. If you can't picture the original color of your tile and grout, or you want to prevent that color from disappearing under a film of dirt, contact us today to schedule your tile and grout cleaning.
