Easy Instructions for a Cuddly, Warm, and Soft T-Shirt Quilt
Pragya T
Oct 8, 2018
With t-shirt quilt instructions, you can create great-looking quilts. Read on, to learn how to make a t-shirt quilt to recycle your old tees.
Don't feel like parting with your old t-shirts? Got too many old t-shirt, some are faded, some have stitching coming out, some even have holes..? Worry not, use the following instructions to create some interesting t-shirt quilt designs.
If you don't have time to make the quilts yourself, then there are many quilt makers and you can find them online. But, making the quilt pattern is a fun DIY project and with some materials you can make a great-looking quilt at home. Here are the steps you need to follow and the stuff you need.
How to Make a T-Shirt Quilt?
Things you require are:
Interfacing (fusible, woven type)
Cotton batting
Regular quilting cotton fabric
Cardboard sheets
Rotary cutter
Step #1: Layout Design
According to the number of t-shirts you have to design the layout. For example, if you have 12 tees, then they can be made into a 3 across and 4 down quilt pattern, and the quilt will be around 48 by 64 inches. So decide the across and down blocks number according to the availability of the number of t-shirts.
Step #2: Cleaning and Cutting the T-shirts
Wash all the t-shirts. If you have t-shirts which were never worn, then wash them twice. Now, take a cardboard sheet and cut out a square of size 15 inches, so that you have a frame. Make sure you make a perfect frame.
Now, place the frame on a t-shirt and using a pencil mark the 15 by 15 inches boundary on the t-shirt, and cut the square pieces of the t-shirt using a rotary cutter. Separate the front of the tee from the back. Try to avoid using any stained t-shirt, and take care to crop the front design of the shirt well.
Step #3: Cutting the Interfacing
You can get the pre-shrink fusible material if required. In a similar manner mentioned above, make a frame out of cardboard sheet, but the frame this time should be 2 inches larger so it will be 17 by 17 inches. Place the frame on fusing, mark the 17 by 17 inches size and cut out the square pieces of the fusing using a rotary cutter.
Step #4: Fusing
Read the manufacturer's instructions while fusing the t-shirt. Now, position the interfacing with the resin side down on the unprinted size of the t-shirt and try to center the design as much as you can. To avoid getting any glue on your iron, remember to use a press cloth. Take out all the wrinkles when ironing.
Step #5: Arranging the Blocks
Now, arrange the blocks in a pattern you like. Lay out the squares on the floor, and arrange the quilt pattern in such a way that you balance out the colors and designs well.
Step #6: Sewing the Blocks
Then keep sewing together the blocks in rows, which can be either vertical or horizontal. Insert the sashing pieces. Now, assemble the rows and then add the borders.
Step #7: Finishing
Then layer the backing and batting and the quilt top and baste or safety pin it together. You can quilt your quilt using a quilting machine or tie it to hold the layers together.
Once you know how to use interfacing and t-shirts to create a quilt, you can experiment with different t-shirt quilt ideas and patterns. You can try arranging the t-shirts in a diagonal pattern or in a random pattern to create more interesting quilts.

Shares of bankrupt AMR Corporation (OTCMKTS:AAMRQ) — the parent company of American Airlines — have taken investors on a wild ride over the past six months. After spending most of 2012 well under $1, the stock rocketed higher, peaking above $7 a few weeks ago. Since then, shares have crashed again, briefly dipping below $4 on Thursday before closing the day at $4.40.
This extreme volatility highlights the excessive risk entailed in investing in a bankrupt company's stock. Many investors — including myself — thought that AMR Corporation (OTCMKTS:AAMRQ) shares would be worth little or nothing at the end of the company's bankruptcy proceeding. However, in February, the company announced that current AMR stockholders will actually receive at least 3.5% of the stock of American Airlines Group, which will be formed by the impending merger of American and US Airways Group, Inc. (NYSE:LCC).
This news drove AMR Corporation (OTCMKTS:AAMRQ) shares up to nearly $3. However, the guaranteed recovery — 3.5% of the new AAG — would be worth only $385 million at the deal's official valuation of $11 billion. That works out to just $1.15 per AMR share. AMR shares have been driven far past this level because of a provision in the restructuring agreement that gives shareholders a chance to control more than 3.5% of the new stock — but only if AMR's creditors are paid in full.
How much will shareholders get?
According to U.S. bankruptcy law, debt holders and vendors who have not been paid in full have the first call on any value left in the business. While these "unsecured creditors" have their claims prioritized over those of shareholders, they are not entitled to any upside from the bankruptcy reorganization. Thus, if unsecured creditors can be paid in full, current AMR Corporation (OTCMKTS:AAMRQ)shareholders would be entitled to any additional value.
After the reorganization plan goes into effect and AMR merges with US Airways Group, Inc. (NYSE:LCC), 28% of the new entity would be owned by US Airways shareholders and 3.5% would be owned by current AMR Corporation (OTCMKTS:AAMRQ) shareholders. For AMR shareholders to receive any additional shares, the remaining 68.5% of shares would need to be worth more than the total value of unsecured claims against AMR.
There's a fairly complex formula governing how many shares of new stock will be issued to current AMR shareholders; fortunately, the company has provided a straightforward table (link opens PDF; see p. 486) laying out various scenarios. The upshot is that if shares of the new American Airlines Group are valued at more than $14.99, AMR shareholders will receive extra shares. The higher AAG's trading price, the more shares will be issued to AMR Corporation (OTCMKTS:AAMRQ) equity holders.
Bringing it home
US Airways Group, Inc. (NYSE:LCC) shares will convert into American Airlines Group shares on a 1:1 basis, which means that the US Airways share price represents the best estimate of what AAG stock will be worth. At $15, AMR shareholders would be left out in the cold, with a measly recovery of just $1.15 — but if US Airways shares rise to $18, AMR shares could be worth approximately $6 each. Since US Airways stock has traded anywhere from $14 to $19 in the past three months, AMR shares have been even more volatile.

For more than six months thousands of people, mostly indigenous Americans, have been fighting against the construction of a massive pipeline, which is building to transfer 470,000 barrels of crude oil a day from the Bakken shale fields of North Dakota to Peoria, Illinois. The "Dakota Access Pipeline" is a 3.8 billion dollars, 1.100 miles fracked oil pipeline which is slated to cross Lakota Treaty Territory at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation.
On December 4th, the US Army Corps of Engineers, which manages the federal land where the main protest camp is located, announced that it would not grant an easement to allow the Dakota Access Pipeline to cross under Lake Oahe in North Dakota near the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe reservation. Instead, the Corps will prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for alternate routes.
This was a huge victory for the peaceful protesters who have been standing against robber bullets, heavy armed police forces, security guards with dogs attacking them and water canons spraying them in subfreezing temperatures, only to protect the quality of the water for their communities and Standing Rock Sioux sacred grounds, including a Sioux burial site. Up to 20 million people need fresh water covered from resources in that area and these resources are going to be endangered by the fracking activity in the Bakken shale fields as well as by the construction of the pipeline which would be laid underneath Missouri River, the longest river on the continent.
However, despite the historic decision made by the US Army Corp of Engineers, the feelings among the water protectors at the Oceti Sakowin camp were mixed. Most of them were happy that the long and rough fight against the pipeline's construction brought the desired result. Nevertheless, many of them were cautious, saying that the government "fooled" them many times in the past and they don't trust it anymore. Moreover, some of the protesters were sad because after this "victory", they had to leave the camp area which they thoroughly enjoyed its feeling and atmosphere.
Regardless of the mixed feelings, all the protesters agreed on one thing; nothing is over. The Standing Rock "Uprising" was a wake up call for the American people. It was a huge step toward the fight against corporate greed and environmental protection as well as the beginning of more struggles they are about to encounter all over the country.

Home made Curry masala powder | கறி மசாலா பொடி
Home made Curry masala powder | கறி மசாலா பொடி is a podi prepared to use for both veg and non-veg recipes. Spices mixed with this masala powder will give good flavour and taste to your dishes.
Today's markets are flooded with ready made powders and masalas. Many of us buy them instead of preparing at home. Store bought powders will have preservatives in it to improve shelf life and artificial colours to make it attractive. If we prepare at home once and use it, we will never turn back to go for ready made masala powders. This masala powder has a good and moderate aroma of spices and gives a good smell to the recipe. Not very pungent or very spicy.
Now let's go to the recipe.
- red chillies/ vara milagai – 20 number
- coriander seeds/ malli – 4 tblsp or 50 grams
- fennel seeds/ sombu – 2 tblsp
- Cumin seeds/ seeragam – 2 tblsp
- poppy seeds/ kasa kasa – 1 tblsp
- Cinnamon sticks/ pattai – 4-5 inch pieces
- Black cardomom/ masala cardomom/ karuppu elakkai – 1
- cloves/ kirambu – 4-5
- pepper corns/ milagu – 1/2 tsp
- turmeric powder/ manjal podi – 1 tsp
The amount I have given will come for three to four months to one family. If you have it for more than three months you can refrigerate it and use for a long time. Some people add roasted gram/ pottu kadalai and raw rice. It's optional. It may reduce shelf life.
This combination will be correct for almost all vegetables. We should add. 1/2 tsp of red chilly powder to the recipe as we have added lesser amount of red chillies in this powder. If you need it less spicy you can also add fresh coconut or coconut milk according to your need while cooking.
1. Dry roast all the ingredients one by one separately, till you get a nice flavour. Be careful while roasting poppy seeds. Keep it in low flame and roast without burning.
2. Do not roast cinnamon, cloves, turmeric (here we add powder) and black cardomom.
3. Grind into a fine powder in your mixie. If you prepare powder in large amount for sharing with some families or for a function you can grind it in a rice mill. The final powder colour will be in yellow ocher to brown shade, as we add coriander, fennel seeds, cumin seeds and turmeric powder.

I will be posting more masala powder recipes soon. Stay tuned.

Published in: Credit Cards | Oct. 18, 2018
What Does It Mean to Be an Authorized User on a Credit Card?
By: Christy Bieber
Authorized users have the authority to use a credit card, but no responsibility to pay the bill. Learn what it means to be an authorized user on a credit card.
Image source: Getty Images.
When a credit card is issued, it has the name of the account holder on it. The account holder is authorized to use the card for transactions and is responsible for paying the bill. However, the account holder may want to give permission for others to use the card. One way to do this is to name someone else as an authorized user on the account.
Designating someone as an authorized user has implications both for the cardholder and the person given authority to use the card. Both need to understand the impact of making someone an authorized user.
What does it mean to be an authorized user on a credit card?
An authorized user is someone who the primary cardholder gives permission to use the credit card. However, the authorized user doesn't have his credit checked, and isn't responsible for paying back any charges made on the card.
A primary cardholder can usually add an authorized user at any time, simply by contacting the credit card company and providing a name and social security number. The credit card issuer will send over a card with the authorized user's name on it.
This can be very convenient if you want to give a card to your kids, for example, or if you're a caregiver of an aging parent and want to be able to buy things using their credit card.
Authorized users vs. cosigners
When applying for a credit card, there may be an opportunity not only to add an authorized user, but also to add a cosigner to your application. Cosigners are very different than authorized users, though.
Unlike authorized users, cosigners have responsibility for repaying debt. If the primary account holder doesn't pay, the cosigner could be held fully liable for the amount borrowed and creditors could come after the cosigner to collect.
Cosigners are usually added to credit card accounts to bolster the chances the primary cardholder will be approved. If a credit applicant has a low credit score or no credit, adding a cosigner makes his application stronger -- especially if the cosigner has good credit -- because the creditor now has another party to hold responsible for repayment.
Adding an authorized user, on the other hand, wouldn't bolster an application at all because that authorized user has no legal obligations to the creditor for charges made on the card.
Risks and benefits of adding an authorized user
Before adding someone as an authorized user to any credit card account, make certain you can count on the person not to be irresponsible with spending. If they run up a big bill, you're responsible for paying it as the primary cardholder. You can't just tell the creditor it wasn't you who made the charges since the card is in your name.
In fact, the authorized user has no legal liability to repay the card at all. You're on the hook for any charges they make as long as they're authorized to use your card -- and they don't have to get your approval first.
If you've made someone an authorized user, keep tabs on the credit card statements so you'll know what they're charging -- and remove them immediately if it turns out they aren't behaving responsibly.
Risks and benefits of becoming an authorized user
While authorized users don't have to pay any of the bills for charges, their credit can be affected based on what happens with the credit card. In fact, you need to be careful about being named as an authorized user because the card shows up on your credit report -- even though you don't get the bills or have any responsibility for paying them.
Being an authorized user can help your credit if the primary cardholder is responsible. You could lengthen your credit history if you're added as an authorized user to an older card, and could benefit from a large credit line and a long record of on-time payments. But, if the primary cardholder doesn't pay the card on time or defaults on the debt, these negatives show up on your credit report too.
While you can request to be removed as an authorized user if it turns out the primary cardholder is an irresponsible borrower, you may not be aware of late payments or other problems unless you're regularly checking your credit. If you're added as an authorized user, keep tabs on your credit report and make certain the primary cardholder is someone you can trust.
Should you become an authorized user -- or allow someone else to become one on your card?
Because there are risks and benefits to naming someone as an authorized user on a credit card account, both parties should decide if this is the best approach. Trust is required from both sides, so be certain that everyone's expectations are clear up front -- and that you're taking steps to protect your own interests by monitoring the credit account carefully.

Introduction User Login Registration Plugin WordPress
Amazing membership platforms have to be easy enough to use when membership sites are established, but need to provide the room for these sites to grow as they achieve success. Inside this MemberMouse Overview, we'll discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using MemberMouse for WordPress membership websites, and the way that MemberMouse fits the needs of various users. User Login Registration Plugin WordPress
Getting Started
The neat thing about this is that you are able to change the registered URL, so if you would like to use MemberMouse on a staging site before migrating to a production website, you can register the staging site URL and completely set up your website and members for launch, then migrate the URL into the live site. Once your site URL is registered in your MemberMouse accounts, you may then download the MemberMouse plugin from your dashboard and install it on your WordPress website. From there, you are all set to begin configuring your site.If you don't need to set up the site yourself, you can purchase Quick Start support out of MemberMouse for $299, which comprises a WordPress installation (optional), MemberMouse installation after a consultation call, and an optional migration of registration data out of an existing site. User Login Registration Plugin WordPress
MemberMouse Overview
MemberMouse is a WordPress membership plugin that integrates with almost any WordPress site. Additionally, MemberMouse can offer upsells to members, or automatically provide downsells to customers that wish to cancel in order to improve client retention and maximize earnings. MemberMouse additionally allows members to upgrade or downgrade memberships .You can take a look at a complete feature list from MemberMouse to all the juicy details in one place, or visit our overview of some MemberMouse features.
Configuring MemberMouse
MemberMouse creates several webpages when installed (similar to an eCommerce plugin), for example voucher pages, login/out pages for associates, and much more. You can customize these pages so as to check the best approach for your store, but I chose to get set up.You can check out your membership dashboard when you log into see some compacted information about your website, but since I haven't put up anything yet, I headed down to the General Settings menu to determine what options I had.Under general preferences, I navigated to"Other Settings" and managed to alter what members see if logged , including the page they are redirected to and whether to display protected menu items (by way of instance, if you're protecting products from non-members). One setting that many of you may find intriguing is the"Access Sharing Protection"This little box allows you to limit how many different IP addresses can log into your website using the same credentials at a 24-hour period. I'd allow more than one IP address in case members utilize a computer and a cellular device to look at your content. That way they do not get frustrated by being locked from the site when using a different device. For some membership websites, the ability to limit login info is non-negotiable, therefore MemberMouse becomes an appealing choice.MemberMouse also allows you to make Worker users under General Settings so that support or sales personnel can log into your website and member centre in order to create or help members, but don't have access to web site configuration options. When support or sales people log in, they simply have access to the"Manage Members" menu, MemberMouse Dashboard, and Activity Logs.As a final note on setup, MemberMouse includes a few built-in widgets that you can use to display content throughout your site. For instance, the"Protected Content" widget can exhibit upcoming content to associates based on which membership level access they have so they know what to look forward to (date can be included as well).

Creating Products with MemberMouse
One word of warning for those of you trying MemberMouse: see the tutorial movies. Usually documentation is excellent for when I get stuck instead of as a beginning point, but I was not sure why memberships and products were separated in the way that they were.MemberMouse provides membership access to different goods. If you are new at this, it may seem redundant to separate memberships from products at first; however, this allows you far more flexibility in pricing your membership products. You can create a"Bronze" membership access level and tie it to multiple goods, like a standard product (at one cost ), a discounted product (with a promotional cost ), and also an affiliate product (with a cost for users known as an affiliate). After viewing the videos and understanding this structure, I really liked the flexibility offered by dividing membership accessibility from goods.Products are made under Product Settings. Both physical and virtual products are handled from precisely the same page, and after your goods are put up, you can then create membership accessibility levels and assign them to your products. To begin, delegate your"Associated accessibility" for your merchandise to"none" since you're going to be setting up memberships later.Together with MemberMouse, you are able to make sign-up fees or trial periods. If you allow"Trials", you can optionally set a cost for a trial period (which could be 0 ), then determine how long that trial period will operate. If you merely need to use this for a sign-up fee, then you can decide on a one-day trial and then initiate the membership. This isn't ideal, because the monthly charge will not be shown instantly at checkout since just the signup fee is shown, but it works well enough that it should not be a problem. Your product description should clarify fees and billing anyway.You can also make products"shippable" to take advantage of the restricted shipping approaches available in MemberMouse for memberships that involve bodily goods. User Login Registration Plugin WordPress
Creating Membership Gain with MemberMouse
After products are created, you may then create membership access levels to tie to some of your membership solutions. These membership levels will establish the content restriction rules for members. However, you may also edit the access rules onto a per-post or even per-page basis.When you make a membership level, you can assign that accessibility level to a particular item. This is what I had been talking about in regard to versatility — you can assign an access level to as many products as you want, so in the event that you offer promotional pricing for email readers or referrals from your own affiliates, you can tie the identical access to each of the products.You'll also select which classes will be protected for that access level from precisely the same screen. Multiple post categories can be selected for accessibility. As a default, access will be limited for the whole post for each post in the class. But you can get around this to display post excerpts and teasers with Smart Tags. Access can also be put on a per-post or per-page basis whilst editing a post or page. The article / page editor is where you are going to handle content dripping. Dripping is elastic and super-simple, as you may specify a delay in access for each membership level in terms of days.After content dripping is installed, you can see schedules for every membership level below Product Settings > Content Dripping Program to get a general view of if each access level can see content. This page will also allow you to bulk edit access rights for each membership level, and customize content dripping occasions for each access level. It's really useful for all those of you that already have a lot of content generated, and only want to assign trickle occasions and get rights from 1 display.Not certain how it will look to each member? Look at the top of your screen when previewing your own site.
MemberMouse Smart Tags
Before you start setting up your site to sell membership products, you will want to take a look at a few of the built-in shortcodes for MemberMouse, called Smart Tags. You can use smart tags to insert purchase links for your merchandise, selectively restrict (or remove restrictions from) specific parts of content to make excerpts, and show member data. Bright tags also let you insert links that allow members to handle their own subscriptions, upgrade memberships, or purchase new products.
Selling Packages
MemberMouse has another sales option of which you can take advantage. Participants can't buy more than 1 membership degree using MemberMouse. But, you can use another content limitation tool, called a bundle, to supply a topic-based membership. This is also the way you can offer upsells to present members. You can assign multiple goods to a package in the exact same way that you can assign multiple goods to a membership accessibility level. Bundles allow you to enlarge the material access a product supplies when used in this way.Because Bundles are tied to goods in precisely the exact same way as membership accessibility, bundles can also take advantage of material dripping. The benefit to using packages is that members may buy more than one bundle at one time.

Selling and Handling MemberMouse Memberships
When you are done learning about smart tags, setting up products, access levels, and content dripping, you will want to sell the memberships you have created. While MemberMouse automatically creates a whole lot of pages, it does not produce a catalogue or sales page. For me this is a good thing, since I believe selling memberships to potential users needs long-form content anyhow — members probably are not likely to come to your site and browse for memberships right away.To sell memberships, you'll need to create posts or pages with buy links. You can replicate purchase links from your product settings for each item, or create a buy link employing a smart label if the connection has been posted on your WordPress site (which is what we've done in the screenshot). You might also utilize MemberMouse's built-in button fashions rather than the ones from your motif (mine are a bit lackluster since we are using the default theme).
MemberMouse costs are dependent on the amount of users for your membership website, however MemberMouse is not a true SaaS solution, as the MemberMouse plugin runs on your servers. You put in the plugin on your site, but will also have a MemberMouse account; your site then checks in with the MemberMouse licensing server to deliver information on site usage. As this is a"check in", your site does not require MemberMouse's licensing servers to run the membership part of your site. As a result, site performance is entirely determined by your own hosting and surroundings.MemberMouse pricing ranges from $20 a month for 1,000 users up to premium and specialist plans at $300-600 a month for sites with over 100,000 users (support is included for all programs ). It is possible to try MemberMouse free to get a 14 day trial before committing to using it. Each pricing tier offers different benefits (such as premium support beginning with innovative plans), but here is a rough breakdown of price based on number of consumers.
Managing Staff
Among the great things about MemberMouse is that members may manage themeselves, which can help free up time you would otherwise spend on site administration. You can also personalize the member"My Account" page to automatically upsell your merchandise for you, or to try to save sales if members want to cancel.When members make adjustments to their account, these changes are automatically reflected in your e mail lists or alternative integrations built-in to MemberMouse so that you don't have to manually handle fluctuations in membership (i.e., moving out of the"gold" list to the"platinum" email list). The members center is geared towards automating and simplifying your site direction, which may save massive amounts of time for sites with thousands of members.If you'd like to downsell members who would prefer to cancel, you can take advantage of this MemberMouse Conserve the Sale page, which permits you to produce a downsell which will be revealed to associates who are looking to cancel a membership. When members do cancel, you may opt to hard cancel the membership, which blocks access into the members area and logging in, or you may pause the membership. When a member pauses their account (or you opt to set cancellations to membership pauses), their membership is actually frozen so that they still have access to any content that's been released up to that point, but are removed from the drip program and cannot get any new content.

Billing and Payments
Billing is very flexible with MemberMouse, and bicycles are completely customized. Additionally, you can charge a one-time fee for memberships (though I would recommend avoiding this unless you are just beginning, since you'll always have to chase new associates, which sort of defeats the purpose of a recurring billing model ).You can also use coupons with MemberMouse, and determine whether to apply them to the initial billing cycle or the life of this membership. Coupons can provide a percentage a dollar-amount reduction. Coupons are also made to deliver an entirely free membership, or you might create a membership for a client yourself and deductions which membership rather. Coupon usage can be limited to specific products or quite a few uses.The best thing about charging is that you can control recurring billing activities, like refunds, straight from MemberMouse rather than logging in to your account with your payment processor. For instance, you can issue refunds from within your MemberMouse admin rather than logging into Stripe or PayPal to do so, and MemberMouse automatically interacts with the correct processor.Ultimately, MemberMouse integrates with several popular payment providers, including Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.net, Braintree, and ClickBank. You can use one on-site payment method, such as Stripe or Authorize.net, and in the exact same time use PayPal or ClickBank to provide up to three payment options.As cards are tokenized and saved to get members, MemberMouse may also help automate late payment managing to save your client management team time and maintain your revenue stream flowing. When MemberMouse detects that a card was diminished , it marks the member's account as overdue, then sends the manhood and email asking him to login and upgrade the card information in the account. The penis is then instantly charged the sum as a result of member account is reactivated.
MemberMouse is not designed to become an eCommerce platform, but it can allow you to sell some physical products through your website and also to sell physical goods with subscriptions, such as magazines (though I believe it does a much better job with virtual goods than physical goods ). When you produce your product, you mark it as"shippable", subsequently set up fundamental transport prices (such as regular and expedited shipping).As for me, I'd just include shipping as part of the membership pricing a month (and advertise that fact!) To simplify my shop management, but the shipping methods can be useful for selling'swag' items and other physical products for your site.
MemberMouse includes a few integrations built in to help you with your website management. First, email is critical for communication and participation. It is possible to take advantage of this integration to manage your relationship with members having an email platform you're already acquainted with, and transferring members between lists is automatic to help save you time.MemberMouse also incorporates with iDevAffiliate to manage affiliates to your membership website. When clients are sent from an affiliate, this will be noted in the member accounts, and you'll be able to opt to dynamically display content or offers to members based on which affiliate referred them to your site.
Talking of Developers
If you're an advanced user, or have a programmer on staff, it's possible to further automate a good deal of MemberMouse functions. Besides smart tags (shortcodes from WordPress lingo), there are plenty of actions and filters available, in addition to a well-documented collection of international purposes for use in templates as well as other customized code.In addition, you can make push notifications for site administrators and associates for events like new member signups or charge receipts. However, these push notifications may also be used to trigger actions in third-party integrations (i.e., sending information to an accounting system). MemberMouse additionally has an API that developers can utilize to incorporate MemberMouse with external systems, which is not true with all membership plugins. This permits you to create, get, and upgrade information regarding members.
Full documentation is available, and was pretty useful for me. Some documentation comprises video walkthroughs, and all settings and functions are recorded. I only used the support desk one time for an problem with the smart tag library, and obtained a response to the question I filed at the morning later the exact same day, and got a follow-up email to let me know the problem would be solved in the next release.In addition, there is developer documentation available for website customizations. If you are conducting a membership site with thousands of members, chances are you own a programmer on retainer or a single on staff, so getting docs handy for tweaks and customizations is a plus.

MemberMouse Review
MemberMouse provides enormous functionality and will allow you to treat your membership website like a business instead of a hobby. Establishing a site and fundamental content restriction is simple (especially with the assistance of the"Getting Started" videos), but far more personalization is possible if you're eager to generate a time investment in site setup and optimization. There is definitely a learning curve involved with using MemberMouse, but it is in proportion to the sum of performance you get out of the plugin, as it has virtually everything you might want in a membership stage.
MemberMouse makes it easy to improve the Lifetime Value of your members by giving the capability for same-sex earnings. By removing barriers to purchase for present members, you are able to radically increase conversions. When members have been logged in, buy links simply open a pop-up confirming the purchase will be charged to the card to the account to make the purchase essentially a one-click sale (account info is currently prepopulated with the payment data tokenized from the customer account). As you've gone through the time and cost to acquire these associates, up-selling them is made as simple as possible to generate extra revenue and also to help them find other goods.Another interesting feature is the capacity to email buy links to associates, so that if the link is clicked, then members have been logged in and delivered to a pre-populated shopping cart to remove as many barriers as possible to buy.The level of support MemberMouse offers was interesting for me, as many membership solutions offer the plugin / integration and service, and that is it. The Fast Start agency is a white-gloved setup and setup, which is supplied by a few other providers, but MemberMouse also provides a list of recommended contractors, and supports present users to become affiliates to promote the services. Developer tools are also a excellent improvement, and enable you to customize, tweak, or expand your usage of MemberMouse past WordPress. User Login Registration Plugin WordPress

"No way will I delay any further. No way will I procrastinate. It is high time to put this project in high motion."
Manila's Department of Transportation has signed a £1.98bn (30bn Yen) agreement with Mitsubishi and CAF to supply the Philippine capital with 120 cars for its Light Rail Transit (LRT) Line-1 from 2020.
Introduced over a two-year period, the 30 train sets are being brought in to alleviate the chronic congestion in the city that is among the most densely populated on the planet.
In addition to the new trains, the LRT – the oldest of Manila's three metro lines – is also currently being extended south by 7.5m to Cavite Province, eventually boosting capacity on it by 60% from 500,000 to 800,000.
By electing to choose CAF for the manufacture of the trains for the elevated metro line, Mitsubishi has opened up a new market for the Spanish company, which has never supplied trains to the Philippines before. The trains will be fitted with technology mirroring that which is used on fleets in Japan – a country with a reputation for running incredibly efficient rail networks.
Offering some details on the upcoming trains, CAF said the new units will be able to run in either direction and have sixteen doors on each side, making embarking and alighting comfortable and safe. The 106-metre-long trains will be able to run at speeds of up to 43mph and have a 276-seat layout that will maximise capacity for standing passengers, providing an interior that is likely to be similar in feel to that of London's Crossrail.
The secretary of the Manila Department of Transportation, Arthur Tugade, spoke effusively about the Mitsubishi-CAF deal, and would kick-start the city's LRT line extension which he said "has been delayed for a long time".
"No way will I delay any further. No way will I procrastinate. It is high time to put this project in high motion," said Tugade.
The contract win for CAF comes during a busy period for CAF, which this year also secured deals to supply trams for networks in Stockholm, De Lijn (Belgium), Consenza (Italy), Seattle and Kansas. The company also recently signed a contract to supply the Naples Metro, in southern Italy, with 10 units of six cars to be delivered during 2019.

I've had this fabric for yonks, so long I can't even remember where or when I bought it, but I think it was about 8 years ago. I still really like the colour combinations but somehow it also has a bit of an outdated feel to it. I'm not quite sure if it is outdated enough to be retro-cool or just old, but I've decided I don't care, so there. The patterns are Ottobre yet again. I realised miss 3 has grown so much since last Winter that nothing she owns will fit once the cold weather arrives, so I'm getting an early start on making a few warmer clothes. I also picked up a beautiful velveteen Osh Kosh jacket in the exact same red at an op shop on Friday – bargain!
Tag: Pants
I would say I am an on a roll, but it's more like a manic obsession LOL.Here are some capri pants from Ottobre 3/2009 – black stretch denim with aqua top-stitching. I nearly had a conniption trying to do all the top-stitching, the thread was proper top-stitching thread and kept snapping, even though I had a nice thick needle and had loosened off the tension! Liam's t-shirt was quickly run up while watching Doctor Who. It is Ottobre 1/2006. I think I have finally conquered getting a good finish on binding the neck of knits, this is pretty much perfect especially next to those chubby cheeks – aren't they adorable!
The twirly skirt is a full circle, cut using the lines on my cardboard cutting board, with elastic threaded through an attached waistband, for which I actually needed to dredge up some maths and work out the length I needed using pi!! The frill is about 3 times the circumference of the hem.
Tartan jumping
I bought this beautiful stretch velour fabric a year ago to make pants but strangely the child in question grew. I still had just enough, but needed to put a seam through the pants to get the length so I've covered up the seam with some lovely tartan ribbon. I gathered the tartan ribbon with gathering threads then sewed it down the middle with zigzag so that the pants would still be able to stretch when needed.The beret is one I knitted last year to match a jumper I also knitted. The model refused all requests to stay still so all the shots are blurry!
Knitting goodness
Secondly, the alpaca jumper for Milly which I promised myself would be finished a week from when I blogged about it, and sure enough it was finished but took 2 months to be blogged. I bought this alpaca a year ago for my birthday and didn't intend to knit something this big. I didn't want to make a trip back to Hahndorf where I bought it so I found a red wool that is almost a perfect colour match, although the alpaca is much lighter in weight – can you see the difference? (Actually you can in this photo but not in daylight).
Motivation at last
You are reading a post from 2008. Part of my continuing efforts to transfer all the posts from my old blog into the archives of my new one.
Motivation – it is definitely a strange thing… It has basically been 5 months since I did much sewing, but suddenly I am on a roll again (Yay!)
The Raggedy Ann and Andy pants were a curtain, half of which I think I sent to Kerry in a swap (??). I love this little slouch pant pattern, it's the same one as the spotty pants in my last post. And lo and behold I actually did have a pair of buttons that matched perfectly for this pair.
Summer pants and Curtain pants!
Summer pants – for me for a change 🙂 Made from polished cotton. I cut them on the bias and left out the side seam so that they would fall nicely. Also added a self fabric belt and belt keepers to the elastic waist. I think I'll make another pair, they are so cool and comfy.
And pants for Miss Milly which I ran up last night from an old curtain I bought at the op shop. The fabric is like a cotton sateen and I still have plenty of it left. I dressed little miss in her cardigan that I knitted from Jo Sharp 'silk georgette' yarn – it's a mix of alpaca, wool and silk and was so lovely to knit with. The pattern is from an old knitting book of cardigans and matinee jackets that I also bought in an op shop. Big sister took the photo so I had to choose between the one with milk curds on her face, the one with her head cut off or the one that's slightly out of focus…

You might think that in its first 200 years, the country would have worked out public access to our courts in fairly good detail. But no. And it took a couple of Inland court cases in the 1980s to clarify such things.
In a new book, "Justice in Plain Sight," the now-retired Press-Enterprise columnist of 32 years, Dan Bernstein, has chronicled how two Inland cases snaked their way through the court system all the way to the United States Supreme Court.
The rulings in those cases have reverberated for decades through countless judicial proceedings around the nation. Your own knowledge about some court action in our Inland area might have been limited had it not been for these two cases. The rulings even figure in renowned cases, such as Martha Stewart's perjury trial.
Bernstein, who left the paper in 2014, details how justices considered existing legal practices against arguments from The Press-Enterprise and other media and First Amendment voices throughout the country arguing for more openness.
And in successive decisions, they decided that public access to two judicial customs — voir dire (choosing a jury) and preliminary hearings — should not be left solely to the discretion of a judge.
These were the rulings sought by the paper's then-owner, Tim Hays, and the executive editor, Norman Cherniss, who pushed the cases out of a belief that public confidence would increase with greater access to the courts.
In earlier times, judges could close such judicial proceedings at their discretion out of fear that reporting on questions or answers from particular jurors might taint the jury pool. Further, some jurors might not answer sensitive questions honestly if they knew a reporter was there.
Defendants, no matter how heinous the crime (and the cases discussed here involved some vicious crimes), have a right to a speedy and fair trial. A judge has the responsibility to ensure that right and this led, over many years, to a lot of closed hearings.
The justices did not discount judges' commitment to speedy and fair trials, but their rulings made an important change: Judges could close their courtrooms, but had to explain why and knew their decision could be challenged in a higher court — and risk having a verdict overturned. The rulings are a constitutional win-win in that they protect the rights of principals in court cases while opening court actions to public scrutiny.
Bernstein writes extensively about attorney James Ward, who argued the cases on behalf of The Press-Enterprise. Ward may not have been a First Amendment expert, but he was intent on bringing his energy and creativity. While pressures were exerted on the newspaper's owner to hire someone with more relevant experience, Hays stuck with Ward.
Ward's remembrances of the events leading up to the Supreme Court cases add depth and texture to this story. Bernstein worked hard to understand the legal issues and put them in perspective. His consultations with legal experts helped produce a readable, and understandable, account of a couple of cases that have had lasting importance to the public and the courts for decades.
The idea for the book came before he'd left the paper. Riverside County Superior Court Judge Sharon Waters mentioned a "moot court" practice run for another case "just like we did in the PE cases," Bernstein recalled. "Waters' suggestion eventually sunk in and became my retirement plan," Bernstein says. "The research, writing, editing, etc., took four years."
These days, Bernstein is back to quasi-retirement. He helps lead reading exercises at a local youth detention center. He plays trombone in two musical ensembles, one of which is the musical therapy program at Kaiser Hospital. And he herds sheep with Sherman, his Old English Sheepdog.
Bernstein sometimes makes appearances promoting the book alone but most of the time is joined by Ward and Mel Opotowsky, retired managing editor of the newspaper who helped prepare the cases, in what the threesome calls "The Antique Road Show." The justice system is one of the three branches of our government. Empowering citizens to observe its operations cannot help but fortify it against injustices and engender public confidence. An Inland publisher and his band of allies took that notion and forged changes that endure today.

The Chief Censor will review a children's movie that stirred up controversy overseas, even after it was announced the offending scenes would be removed.
Show Dogs contained a scene where the main character, a dog, was forced to have his genitals touched in order to save the day.
The movie, rated PG, was released in the US this week and is due to come out in New Zealand in October.
US movie reviewer Terina Maldonado, who watched the film with her three young children, said the plot involved the lead character - a police dog called Max - saving the day by infiltrating a dog show and winning first prize.
She said for him to win, Max needed to have his genitals inspected by a judge - which Max does not want - however he is told to go to his 'zen place' and wait for it to be all over.
"The moment comes when they're at the finals and the judge comes to do the inspection. You see a shot of [Max's] face and then it goes to the montage of doggy happiness, he disassociates with what is going on.
"Then it comes back to the moment and he is now the hero because he has won the show," she said.
Ms Maldonado was paid to do the review by an independent public relations company, and it was published on US Macaroni Kid's website.
Audiences across the country quickly hit back at production company Global Road Entertainment. On Facebook the show now has a review rating of 1.3 out of 5, and on Rotten Tomatoes 1.9 out of 5.
Ms Maldonado said on the car ride home after the movie, her eight-year-old daughter said the judging scene was her favourite part.
"I was just in disbelief, so I took a deep breath and used it as a teaching opportunity to talk to her about consent."
New Zealand's chief censor David Shanks said the film would be independently classified before it could be released domestically.
"We have called in the film to be examined according to our legal criteria and an official classification and content warning will be issued in due course. At this point we cannot prejudge what the classification will be," he said.
The company responded, two days after Ms Maldonado's review went viral, with a statement apologising for any offence caused but it refused to take action.
"The dog show judging in this film is depicted completely accurately as done at shows around the world; and was performed by professional and highly respected dog show judges."
However a day later, the company changed its tune.
"[We have] decided to remove two scenes from the film ... the company takes these matters very seriously."
"The revised version of the film will be available for viewing nation-wide starting this weekend."
The classification office said the film would still be classified in New Zealand, for peace of mind.

Today is the anniversary of the horrible series of tornadoes that wracked Alabama for eight hours last year, leaving destruction, death and broken lives in their wake. It was a very traumatic and memorable day, one I will never forget, and yet one I'm not really ready to talk about.
As I read the wonderful tributes, prayers, and messages of hope that people are offering today, my mind is filled with two things: bleary memories of that awful day, and intense shame that I would care about my own experience when so many others lost so much, and suffered for so long.
I'm grateful that the Lord spared my life in so many ways that day, both in guiding the weather around my home and in caring for me as I scrabbled around the fallen power lines and blasted trees that night. (I still can't believe I drove home from Birmingham that afternoon.) I'm grateful that my amazing father refused to give up, even when things seemed hopeless and scary. He set a tremendous example in caring for others ahead of himself, and even more than that demonstrated a patient love by continuing to give his time and resources for months to come, rebuilding homes and lives. I'm especially grateful to my brave friends who, despite losing nearly everything, showed the strength to persevere, move on and heal. Their endurance and love for each other during that time and after gives me hope, and a high standard to live up to as I deal with trouble in my own life.
My heart goes out to everyone touched by the power of that storm. To those who lost homes, loved ones, and property... I am so sorry. I hope this intervening year has been full of healing for you. But if you are reading this, you are alive. For me now, every morning that I have the privilege to sleepily yawn and swat at my alarm clock is a gift, and thanks to the lessons from April 27th I will never treat each day the same. The Lord gives, the Lord takes away, and He has ordained how long I have left. And that's ok with me now.
One year ago today, I woke up on a morning just concerned about how well I would do in my finals, and how I would say goodbye to all my friends as I finished up my last semester at school. Twelve hours later my former priorities seemed trite and childlike. The events of that day continue to change and shape me, and thankfully for the better. (I hope.) If you are having trouble dealing with the questions that arise from terrible circumstances, I'd love to talk with you.
It is just that we should remember this anniversary. We should feel sorrow at the loss of loved ones; grieve with those who had the misfortune to have homes in the wake of the tornado. But we should live with hope, and without fear. The sun will continue to rise, the rainbow will continue to come out after the storm clouds clear. What is left to us is to choose to treat each day as the precious gift that it is, and treasure the time we are given with our families and friends.

In referring to the" Three Gorges" , people will blurt out two distinct words: dam or landscape, the Three Gorges Dam is the achievement of industrial civilization, and the landscape of the Three Gorges is a creature of nature. However, if we combine them with force, name it a rash hydraulic project and begin to give praise to the value it creates and the achievement in promoting economic development, forget its own beauty and ancient history, abandon people who depend on the land around the dam for their survival. Perhaps, people have been well relocated, but the noisy chaos when people moved out and their frequent looking back when they left their homeland were sufficient to show their uncertainty about the future and their love of their homeland.
This sentiment shines in the eyes of the 100 million people and is not completely covered, it was recorded by Jia Zhangke who is known as the "most insightful portrayer of contemporary China ", he positioned his camera there.
In general, a film has two kinds of genre: dramatic or prose.
More contemporary films tend to be dramatic, especially in vogue are the "legendary" movie and the "wonder" movie, which goes far beyond life. But Jia Zhangke sticks to the prose playwriting
Structure focusing on common stories. The "Still Life" created on 2004 won the "Golden Lion Award" at the 63rd Venice Film Festival. Jia Zhangke uses his camera to record ordinary people, especially marginalized people, recording their life story, calm but intriguing.
"Kind People at the Three Gorges", with the English name of "Still life", still life? still object ? Why was it so named? Can it also have another significance? With this question, the story starts. The beginning of the movie describes hundreds of people crowded on the narrow bottom of a scow at eye-level perspective, the droning whistle of boats and the beautiful background acts as an extension of the lens for up to four minutes, immediately taking the audience into the dead and restless world formed by numerous ordinary lives. The film follows two themes: First, the coal miner Han Sanming who comes to the Three Gorges to find his wife which he bought six years ago and their daughter, they meet and eventually decide to remarry. In this theme, the plot is depicted mostly by naked busts of middle-aged men including naked busts crowded in a cabin , naked squat busts having dinner in a small hotel and naked sweaty busts at a worksite ,these straightforward bodies are the epitome of the monotonous life of the local general public or migrant workers. Oily skin seems to fight against a pale soul which reminds us that they are alive. Jia Zhangke pays attention to the marginalized people and records their living shadows through the camera lens.
Jia Zhangke lays particular stress on the living conditions of the people living in poverty and an important feature for them is their lack of voice, the poor are the silent majority which is in reality the underprivileged class. Jia Zhangke once said: "what each time of change damages is the interests of all the pipsqueaks and is at the expense of sacrificing them."
The second theme is of nurse Zhao Tao from Shanxi who goes to the Three Gorges to find her husband who she has not been out of touch with for two years, the two meet in the river and after a romantic dance, they sadly divorce. If Han Sanming's wife is full of hope and fearless, then Zhao Tao's husband is more like a deported person with a yoke enforced by emotion, in describing this relationship, Jia Zhangke doesn't emphasize the female's distraught mood, but transforms the passive feeling of failure as she has taken the initiative to contact her husband after two years into a kind of feeling of relief, a feeling of rushing to enjoy the state of getting rid of the yoke .
This is different from the people Jia Zhangke has described previously who passively accept their fate, these people's self-awareness begins to strengthen under the condition of the hard to change environment which he understands as the dignity of man, as a result, the very act of using her initiative in "finding" acts as a major element to enhance the spiritual description of the place. So it is not difficult to offer a new explanation to "still life". In my opinion, what Jia Zhangke would like is to express "live life", life is equal for all.
Many contemporary artists' thinking shown as pseudo-philosophers is more like artificial thinking, as they do not really care about things around them. Still Life's difference lies in the basis of respecting "primitive" things .Examining the world through the eyes' of philosophers, revealing society at the point of sociologists and showing the way of artists, Jia Zhangke is a remarkable artist.
Representation of the ordinary people and their stories impress us like a fresh "primitive" realisation, Jia Zhangke's concern with "primitive" is a return to the past which concludes with a respect for life, thinking of humanity and social responsibility. He said: "The art is to recognize your sickness, and then describe the feeling of pain." Artist Liu Xiaodong also constructs a description of pain, his works "New Immigrants of Three Gorges Dam" and "Hot House" were created at the same time as "Still Life ". Figures in "New Immigrants of Three Gorges Dam" are small but also great, small refers to their confusion when their home was submerged, and greatness lies in their hardy character in carrying on with life; The naked squat in" Hot House" is not only a kind of deep power but also a kind of helpless grief which shows man's robust physique and love of youth and life at the same time. People who are familiar with Liu Xiaodong can easily find that he usually draws directly from nature and most of his works are scrolls, full of "primitive" feeling. "I think that the composition of traditional Western art is too focused that it looks like a drama, but life itself is just like walking in a scroll, to watch while walking, it needs time to understand and to gradually experience, so the scroll is closer to life."
Artists who focusing on life and take up the mission of the time would shuttle between several roles as artist, sociologist and even philosopher raise the "issues around us" one by one. Issues happen between us, maybe not every time, both film and painting can touch the wound and clean the mind, just like a "primitive" song which floats into reality is deceived by dirt when it moves into our inner world.

Ch 7: Quasi-Experimental Research
About This Chapter
Quasi-Experimental Research - Chapter Summary and Learning Objectives
A quasi-experiment includes some features of a well-conducted experiment while lacking others. For example, a quasi-experiment might feature important controls, such as a random sample, but not have a manipulated independent variable. You can learn about quasi-experimental research through this chapter, which includes video lessons, written transcripts and self-assessment tests. By the end of this chapter, you should be able to do the following:
- Identify types of quasi-experiments, including non-equivalent groups design, pretest-posttest design and interrupted time-series design
- Differentiate between ex post facto design and true experimental research techniques
- Explain the difference between longitudinal and cross-sectional studies
- Describe how pretest and posttest data is used to compare groups and measure change

1. What is Developmental Research? - Definition, Purpose & Methods
This lesson explores the basics of developmental research. Explore how cross-sectional and longitudinal studies can help researchers study the changes that occur as we age.
2. Quasi-Experimental Designs: Definition, Characteristics, Types & Examples
This lesson explores the basic definition of why there is the label of quasi-experimental design in addition to what types of designs are quasi-experimental.
3. Ex Post Facto Designs: Definition & Examples
This lesson explores what an ex post facto design is using two different examples. In addition, specific attention is paid to differentiating ex post facto from true experiment to reduce confusion.
4. Longitudinal Designs: Definition & Examples
This lesson discusses the uses and procedures in running a longitudinal design. In addition, we also explore some of the benefits and issues that can occur when using such a design.
5. Cross-Sectional Designs: Definition & Examples
This lesson explores the process and requirements in using a cross-sectional design. Two examples are used, one common and one uncommon, to demonstrate how cross-sectional designs can be used in quasi-experiments.
6. Pretest-Posttest Design: Definition & Example
This lesson explores the process and technique of using a pretest-posttest design in psychology. Two simple examples will allow you to understand how to apply this type of design in a future experiment.
7. Understanding the Time Dimension in Research
Something few researchers consider is how the passage of time may affect some research studies. This lesson explores a few different types of studies and how a researcher has to take the dimension of time into consideration when planning the whole experiment.

Have you been living in your home for many years or is a new living environment for you? Either way, you probably see some areas of the home that you are not impressed with. There are simple interior design techniques that you can use to transform your home into a place that you are proud to call home.
One smart tip about interior design is to always be aware of the lighting in a room. If your room lacks windows, try a light shade of paint to make the room less cave-like.
Replacing your kitchen cabinets can be a cost effective and easy way to drastically change the look of your kitchen. Use doors of glass rather than wood doors for your kitchen so it looks brighter. Then you can add some accent pieces inside the cabinets to really give the room a sense of style.
A good interior design tip is to not get too carried away with showing off your big TV or entertainment system. When your friends are over, they won't be inclined to talk with a giant TV staring them down. If you still value conversation, make sure your TV isn't the center of attention.
If you are going to paint make sure it is high quality paint. Low-quality paints wear easily and can cause damage to walls, creating the need to paint more often. Have a design that lasts a long time by investing in quality paint.
They saying, "less is more" could not be more true when it comes to interior design. Rather than filling your room up with lots of different pieces, you would be better served to choose fewer pieces that complement each other beautifully. This way, you avoid giving your room a cluttered look.
When thinking of what color to paint your bedroom, remember that the bedroom is a place for relaxation and calmness. Bright colors, like pinks and purples, do not give off a feeling of relaxation. Instead, you should try to stick to more neutral colors, like beiges, whites, grays and light browns.
Have plants in your home. You can use fresh flowers, ferns, or even cuttings of some small trees. Plants make a home feel more alive, and they seem to bring the outdoors inside. Plants have a calming effect on most people, and they can provide the kind of textures that make a room seem more interesting.
Remodeling your kitchen can be one of the most extensive (and expensive!) interior-design jobs in your house. Despite the hassle and expense involved, resist the temptation to save money by buying cheap cabinets. There's an enormous difference in quality between premium and cut-rate cabinets. You'll only end up replacing discount cabinetry a few years down the line.
Try putting in floors that will reflect light so that it looks bigger and more natural. Two excellent examples of reflective flooring are shiny hard wood floors and white tile flooring. Unlike dark woods and carpeting, these flooring types will brighten an inner room.
All your careful interior-design decisions will be overlooked if the room you create is no longer functional. Issues like traffic flow, upkeep and your personal comfort, as well as the room's intended purpose, need to be taken into consideration before any design decisions are made for the most satisfying results.
Make sure that people can easily move inside your home. If your home's design has tons of clutter in the pathways, you and guests may feel like you have no space. This makes your home seem smaller than it really is. Therefore, allow at least three feet of space for the primary pathways.
If you have a lot of books then adding shelves can be a great addition to your office or living room. This can help you achieve a sophisticated look, no matter if you collect reference books or literature on these shelves. In addition, you should ensure the covers and book ends match your room's color scheme.
As you have learned, interior design can be easy and making changes can make a big difference in your home. You can quickly update the home you have lived in for years or make your new home the place you want to be. Take pride and joy in the place that you call home by taking the step of interior design.

Still, many more research needs staying done to verify the pain-relieving great things about CBD oil. CBD products aren't approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any medical condition. Therefore, they aren't regulated for purity and dosage like other medications.

Member Insight – Matthew Fox
What sparked your decision to become an epidemiologist?
I sort of fell into it. I was doing work in various countries and got interested in global public health and signed up for an MPH. I'd never heard of epidemiology at that point in my life but once I took my first epi class I was hooked and wanted to learn more. I applied to the PhD program as I was finishing my MPH but it wasn't until I took Tim Lash's Modern Epidemiology course that I realized how much I loved epi methods and wanted to teach it as well.
What do you see as the biggest obstacle facing epidemiologists in the next five years?
I think the biggest obstacle we face right now is around funding. It does seem to be getting harder and harder and I fear that that is going to cause some very talented people in the next generation, probably those who are new to SER tight now, to think they might not want to get into the field. I'm hopeful we don't miss the next superstars because we as a society didn't invest in the future of epidemiology. If you are one of those people, let's talk.
Do you have any pets?
I have a dog named Jojo. He's a midsize black collie mix and about the sweetest dog you've ever met. We got him while living in South Africa to act as a guard dog, but as best we can tell he'd let any robbers in and show them where the valuables were so long as they'd pet him.
Why did you join SER? What keeps you coming back?
I joined SER as a student to get more training and access to the cutting-edge methods and the experts in the field. Since then I've found it is the best way to meet likeminded people and get re-inspired by epidemiology. I keep coming back because it is an incredibly friendly, welcoming and social organization and I have enjoyed getting to see both the developments in the field and good friends every year at the annual meeting.
Outside of epidemiology what do you enjoy doing?
I really enjoy spending time with my family, running and travelling. I ran a marathon once and realized I didn't like running that long. Instead, I try to run a few half marathons each year if anyone wants to run with me. I'm also still working on my goal of living on 6 of the 7 continents (forget Antarctica, we already have too much snow in Boston for my liking). I've currently been to 5 and lived on 4 (North America, Europe, Asia and Africa).
What is something that not many people know about you?
That I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in the former Soviet country of Turkmenistan, right on the border of Iran and Afghanistan. I spent two and a half years trying to teach English to middle and high school kids (and for some reason, one group of kindergarteners who I couldn't even get to sit down). I don't think anyone learned any English from me but I learned to speak Russian (I've since forgotten it) and learned a lot about the world and myself.

The 7 Best Television Football Series
Television and football have gone hand in hand for decades. Week in and week out, Americans tune in to watch their favorite games. The NFL's present troubles notwithstanding, that phenomenon likely won't change anytime soon.
Football has also lent itself to great television outside of the games themselves. From heart-wrenching dramas to wacky comedies to gritty documentaries, the small screen has found a place for series about the game itself – or shows that simply surround football.
Here are seven of the best football shows. Some of them are still available on streaming services, home media, or reruns, and they're worth looking for. Enjoy the list!
7. 1st & Ten (HBO, 1984-1991)
Growing up in the middle of nowhere, I didn't have cable until college. But I remember spending the night at a friend's house and watching 1st & Ten. It was everything that my sheltered self had never had exposure to on television – heavy profanity, nudity, the whole nine yards. Of course, it was probably tame by today's standards.
The show was one of HBO's first attempts to compete with network television with a raucous sitcom about a fictional pro football team. With real former NFL players as team members, the draw was obvious, and the series made Delta Burke a star, even though she left in the third season.
The clips I've seen from old episodes look dated, like most everything from the '80s does, but back then, 1st & Ten was groundbreaking.
6. Necessary Roughness (USA, 2011-2013)
Some shows just use sports as a setting and not as something central to their essence. Necessary Roughness was one of those series, although the connection to football is strong enough to place it on this list.
Callie Thorne stars as a Dr. Danielle Santino, a therapist who goes to work for a football team to make ends meet following her divorce. The show divides its time between Santino's adjusting to the routine of a divorced mother and her attempts to help various team members cope with life as superstar athletes.
It's not a heavy, human-interest drama, but it's a nice diversion and worth watching if you can find it on a streaming service or on reruns.

Listen Up!
It didn't take long to realize that we would need a youth group. I know that sounds antiquated, "churchy," or even cumbersome to the vitality and energy of a brand new church. True, unless the majority of that church's most committed members are under the age of eighteen. Welcome to Bridge City Community!
We average between 25-35 "unaccompanied minors" on Sunday mornings - children who walk from the projects to church. On average we serve+share a meal with 55 students every Tuesday night. A youth group wasn't just something we thought we needed to legitimize our church, but a necessity to being a local church in south Chattanooga. So.. we did it. Listen Up is a refrain we regularly use around BCC so it made perfect sense to use it as the name for the gathering and discipling of our youth.
Our first Thursday we had just over 20 youth catch a ride on the Bridge City Bus from the rec center to my house (Pastor Josh). After killing ten pizzas, five 2-liters of soda, and two boxes of Nilla Wafers in 15 minutes we got things rolling with a game of Big Happy Family and splitting the kids into two teams: Team SWAG (Saved with Amazing Grace) and Team Smileys. No one wanted to leave and the bus ride home was raucous. The kids were excited. Mark was pumped. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face for the rest of the night... until I realized how many pizzas I would need each week!
God is working through BCC to reach these youth. Please pray for them and for us as we tackle urban, racial, and youth related issues with the instruction and grace of God. Our children aren't the "next generation" but make up the majority of our current identity, which is why we are creating opportunities for encountering God now.

text: Weird things happen. It's 1963. Fifteen-year-old Charlotte Flax (Winona Ryder) is tired of her wacky mom (Cher) moving their family any time she feels it is necessary. When they move to a small Massachusetts town Mrs. Flax begins dating kindly shopkeeper Lou (Bob Hoskins) whose wife has run away. Charlotte and her 9-year-old swimming enthusiast sister, Kate (Christina Ricci), hope that they can finally settle down. But when Charlotte's attraction to an older man Joe (Michael Schoeffling) the convent's caretaker gets in the way, the family must learn to accept each other for who they truly are just as the President is assassinated and the nation mourns… June Roberts' adaptation of Patty Dann's book is adept and appropriate, giving Winona Ryder one of her best roles and she plays it beautifully. Funny, warm and engaging, this works on so many levels but it doesn't dodge the effect of maternal neglect – which is also a case of overpowering personality: Charlotte's fantasy fugue to New Haven is a sharp reminder that mother-daughter relationships are a minefield and when the daughter starts imitating the mother's promiscuous behaviour (in between attempts to live like a Catholic saint) Mom doesn't like it and there's collateral damage. The girls are not products of marriages – just a teen romance and a one-night stand with an Olympic athlete (maybe) and when things get tough, Mom always gets going. It's Charlotte who wants to settle down. There's a wonderful running joke about Mom's inability to prepare any food other than hors d'oeuvres or sandwiches served with star-shaped cookie cutters. With great dialogue, lovely scene-setting and on the button performances (Cher giving one of her best), there's nothing in this well-judged comedy drama you can't like even though it unexpectedly swerves directions, more than once. The characters are still sympathetic despite being curiously narcissistic: that's good writing. Cher tops it off with The Shoop Shoop Song! Directed by Richard Benjamin.
