Don't be fooled, when it comes to getting a job the resume is fundamental, but the candidate, like so many other things in life, also enters through the eyes and I assure you: a quality Image Consultancy can make the difference between getting a job or not.
Looking for tricks? Well, information is the best trick. Getting the right outfit for a job interview is, above all, a question of having information about the company and the job.
Even if two companies are doing the same thing, their way of understanding the business can be very different, for example: for a conventional marketing company, a suit or a blazer with classic shoes are indispensable, but another, more open and with young customers, will prefer jeans and a jacket, which show closeness to their type of customers.
Getting in-depth information about the company is essential for choosing the right outfit for the job interview, don't take anything for granted.
The best attire for a job interview is…
If you're in a hurry and can't prepare, the best outfit for job interviews is white for the top and dark for the bottom, or a completely dark look. This formula doesn't sum up all the possibilities of this outfit, but it's a good basis!
Generally speaking, dark colors make you look older and high collars convey prestige and generate respect in the interviewer (a must if you need to look "adult").
Knitwear conveys warmth, (important if you are looking to integrate a person into an existing team).
Pastel colors generate sympathy and are empathetic (essential for work with the public or with children).
A white shirt invites confidence (whatever the job) …
… but a fully buttoned shirt collar can convey that you are an inflexible person, not suited to teamwork.
Navy blue or black gives an impression of authority (perfect for candidates to manage teams in positions of responsibility).
Red, on any type of garment, fabric or accessory, generates mistrust. If you are going to wear it, combine it with white and always with a big smile and a conciliatory attitude.
Do not trust either the color grey or beige, although they have a reputation for being elegant and perfect on any occasion they are not and, depending on the tone, there are many people who look bad about them.
These are, more or less, the general notes about the primary colors, but this does not mean that the other colours are forbidden, although it is better to always use personalised criteria.
In any case, if you don't control a combination of colors, don't use it!
What is really important is that you understand that if you don't know the company and the job, you could get it right with a clown suit and fail with a flawless jacket suit, or vice versa.
In addition to this, you must always take into account the type of interview you are going to have, it is not the same to dress for a face-to-face job interview as it is online…
A look for every type of job interview
Not all outfits are suitable for all job interviews. In addition to the job, the particularities of each type of interview should be taken into account.
Face-to-face job interview
At the extremes is the biggest difficulty, if you are an older person you always fight against the prejudice of being "out of your time", in this case update your look for the interview, a simple t-shirt instead of your classic white shirt will make your image updated as if by magic.
Evaluate your real chances of getting the job and, depending on your age and situation, match your look to the job you want to get.
If, on the other hand, you are very young and opt for a position of responsibility, concentrate your efforts on ensuring that all the elements of your image convey confidence and maturity.
Choose very recognizable elements of formal wear: tube skirt, blazer, large shoulder bag, formal shoes, straps… For me, a waistcoat is the perfect unisex garment for this task.
Not that prints and fantasies are forbidden, but beware of colors and motifs that create confusion, an interviewer looks for clarity, so better some geometry, like stripes and checks, also very small motifs.
A common mistake when dressing for a job interview is to forget about the bottom part of the outfit: you may have to stand up to give some explanation or show your skills in some aspect, so think also about the bottom part of the look and the impact the outfit will have on the person watching.
Group job interview
In a group selection you have to stand out and in this respect color can help you.
For example, you can choose a color that is similar to the company's corporate color or, if the circumstances are right, an eye-catching colour that you know will look good on you and make you stand out, but don't overdo it because it can be a double-edged sword.
If you have to dress for a job interview in summer, in some companies and for a casual attire, you can substitute the jacket with an open shirt, you will get a relaxed look, but not of "laziness".
Besides the clothes, pay attention to the volume of the voice and the way of sitting and speaking, it's not about attracting attention for the wrong reasons.
Online job interview
If you are going to be interviewed for a job online, you will need to have control over things that do not count in a face-to-face interview.
Even if the interview will be online, dress up completely for it, remembering that there are often more people around you than you think.
Find a quiet place where you can put your computer and look at it from the front, and even if you're away from home, sit upright and proactive.
If you're at home control the possible interruptions, keep your back straight and do not relax, even if you're on the couch, I remind you that you're fighting for your job.
What to avoid when facing a job interview
If the interview is face-to-face, an excess of perfume or a too dense aroma can be counterproductive, the aim is to be observed and listened to.
If the interview is for a fashion company, for example, as much as they like your look they may be keen to finish because your excess perfume "dumbed down".
Whether the interview is face-to-face or online and whether it's for a casual look or a more formal one, no wrinkled or worn out clothes and no overloading with accessories, whatever the job, always look for a clean and correct look, the overall appearance matters
As far as make-up and hairstyle are concerned, don't take liberties, this is neither the time nor the place to claim your freedom or denounce that society oppresses you, a perfect shave and neutral make-up will be your best allies, and don' you forget your hands, they talk more than you think, so hydrate them and, if you can, get a manicure (good for men and women).
What do I wear to succeed in a job interview?
To achieve your goal in a job interview you also have to dress inside…
Interviewers are professionals, and if you dress in an outfit that matches a job, but you don't get into the "character" and you don't believe it, there's no trick that will make you fit in – create your look for the job and believe it!

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden at the DCMA Photo Shoot
First and foremost, sorry for the slow day yesterday. On the bright side, I now have approximately twice as much to get to today! So, let's get started with Nicole Richie and Joel Madden.
The two were at DCMA Collective, Joel's clothing store, to have a photo shoot. I'm not sure if Nicole was featured in the shots, but she did stay at the store for about an hour. I'm guessing she wasn't, because she's not particularly dolled up in these pictures.
On another note, is it just me or does Joel Madden get hotter and hotter with each photo set I see him in? He's kind of got a Duck Tails hairdo going on in the front, but other than that (and the gold chain he's wearing…I hate those) he's a solid 8.7.

Chronixx + Koffee: Arena Birmingham 10/11/19
These are exciting times for reggae fans. With Jamaica producing a fresh generation of young stars, and established acts like Buju Banton, Capelton and Sizzla enjoying a purple patch, there is a lot of great music out there. And few artists have generated as much excitement as Koffee, whose "Rapture" EP is one of the freshest releases of 2019.
Just 24 hours after selling out Shepherds Bush Empire in London - no mean feat for an artist yet to release a full-length album - the teenager was at Arena Birmingham alongside Chronixx - arguably the genre's biggest star right now. With long queues all the way around the arena, it was a relief to get there just in time for the start of her performance.
In the studio Koffee is a firebrand, and that translates perfectly to the stage. "Toast" is catchy, while "Throne" shows off her lyricism and astonishing flow. "Ragamuffin" had the audience dancing, and showcased perfectly why there is so much hype around this young artist.
More established is Chronixx, performing his only UK headline show of the year. I've been lucky to see him several times over the past five years, and in that time his career has continued to rise and rise. He moves around the stage a lot more than he used to, but commercial success has taken away none of the passion in his performance.
Staple tracks "Alpha and Omega" and "Here Comes Trouble" still sound fresh after all the times I've seen him perform them, while "Skanking Sweet" was popular with the 8,000-strong crowd.
Make no mistake, both these artists have the world at their feet, and will both play a pivotal role in the reggae world for the foreseeable future.

Gladys W. Murphy studied printmaking with Eliza Draper Gardner at the Rhode Island School of Design and is associated with the Providence R.I. artists group.
"Dahlias" is an exceptional example of Murphy's color woodcuts and is a very painterly print. Her design elements are outlined in black creating small fields or cells for the colors which she painted onto her blocks. Each impression will vary.
Dahlias are a summer flower with decorative buds on the ends of curved stems. There seems to be an endless variety of shapes, sizes, and colors to the flowers and, as seen here, they make highly decorative arrangements in any vessel at hand.

We still believe in rock and roll — as a force for good, laughter, debauchery, introspection or whatever revs your energy on a Saturday night. In 2022, the top 10 rock albums took a pilgrimage to Memphis, communed with theologians and poets, found the interconnectedness of all beings and danced through pain and pleasure.
Below, find a ranked list the year's most essential rock music, along with a short list of personal favorites, by NPR Music staff and contributors. You can also hear a conversation about 2022 in rock via All Songs Considered.
10. Kevin Morby, This is a Photograph
Another young, white rock songwriter pilgrimages to Memphis, mining the river city's heritage of tragedy, triumph and soul-baring music that maps the route between the two? Stop the presses. But sequestered in a Peabody suite as the pandemic raged outside, Kevin Morby used Memphis' legacy as a lens to look inward, to ask incisive questions about family, love, fame, careerism and what he wants from life itself over nuanced soul, folk and chamber ballads that unspool like a deep eddy. "The living took forever," he offers during one such slow beauty, "but the dying went quick." It's a fitting existential mantra for these times, dispatched from a place accustomed to transmuting loss. —Grayson Haver Currin
9. Soul Glo, Diaspora Problems
Soul Glo's Epitaph debut is as thematically bold as it is musically visceral. Trauma, family, self-love, racism and the fecklessness of white leftists are all addressed on Diaspora Problems. Songs like "We Wants Revenge" and "Coming Correct is Cheaper" build upon hardcore's decades-long tradition of fury and catharsis, and distill it into a potent, 40-minute punch. It's refreshing and exhilarating to hear such a sharp critique of contemporary Black life that sounds this wild and unhinged. —John Morrison, WXPN
8. Special Interest, Endure
When Earth's human race finally meets its demise — whether via climate catastrophe or impending asteroid or zombie apocalypse — the sound emitting from the last nightclub standing amid the rubble might sound like Special Interest's Endure. The New Orleans band crafts a pummeling, righteous dance-punk opus that takes aim at fascism, gentrification and corporate greed while espousing the importance of community and pleasure. The sounds of '80s post-punk, house music and the spitfire cadence of ballroom manifestos melt into a chaotic, magnetic vision unmatched by any punk album this year. —Hazel Cills
7. caroline, caroline
There's a seed inside every caroline song; sometimes it's a weighted-blanket chord progression, a mournful interval or a simple phrase repeated. And in that fragile inkling of an idea, something grows outward and seeks light. On its self-titled debut, the London-based octet pulls from minimalism, Midwestern emo, post-rock, free-jazz, folk and chamber music not as genetic genre splice, but as a way to build community sprouted from an unforgiving Earth. —Lars Gotrich
6. Hurray for the Riff Raff, LIFE ON EARTH
"Nature teaches us that our work has to be nuanced and steadfast," adrienne maree brown writes in Emergent Strategy, "and more than anything, that we need each other … in order to get free." Alynda Segarra's eighth album as Hurray for the Riff Raff, deeply inspired by that text, embodies that maxim. Its eleven tracks of "nature punk" are sharply constructed and deeply felt, finding hope in the power of compassion and the fundamental interconnectedness of all living things. —Marissa Lorusso
5. Alvvays, Blue Rev
The general feeling of disaffection — tempered by urgency, turbulence and angst — is masterfully relayed in Alvvays' third and best record so far. Replete with hooks, licks and clever lyrics that are never too-clever, Blue Rev is a monument to power pop furnished with a rich cultural and musical lexicon, and delivered with explosive defiance. Simply put, and as my best friend said, "It makes me wanna put my head inside a speaker." —Vita Dadoo
4. Wet Leg, Wet Leg
Wet Leg's "Chaise Longue" was one of last year's greatest songs, an introductory single whose deadpan come-ons exuded wiry wit and playful cool. Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers' full-length debut lives up to that track's enormous promise, with songs that tap into several generations' worth of rock and post-punk influences while still capturing a cocktail of moods that's unmistakably of-the-moment: somehow both over- and under-stimulated, introspective but distant, lusty but numb. —Stephen Thompson
3. Nilüfer Yanya, PAINLESS
Listening to Nilüfer Yanya sometimes makes me feel like I'm handling one of those self-defense trinkets designed for girls — a plastic comb that splits at the center to reveal a switchblade, a pretty, innocuous thing with grim intent. The British singer-songwriter often pairs her gorgeous voice with devastating electric guitar melodies and chillingly simple lyricism that only reveals its bruising later. On her second full-length album PAINLESS, she drags her listener into a maximalist swirl of insecurity and existential dread like never before, filling its tracks with brooding, grungy rock that masterfully honors the quiet darkness of her work. —Hazel Cills
2. Alex G, God Save the Animals
Alex G's most confessional album builds its lofty questions about morality with the base reactions of animals, human and not. For an artist of few clarifications, God Save the Animals is ambitious in its questions about consciousness, flitting between transcendentally aware observation and nearsighted emotional desperation — and forgiveness, a maybe-fake thing made real all the time by people who choose to give it. This fragmented meditation is given flesh by, in addition to theologians and poets, Alex G's baroque melodic sensibility, sick groove and the ascetic simplicity of his observation: "Yes, I have done a couple bad things." —Stefanie Fernández
1. Big Thief, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You
I wouldn't normally associate tenderness and humor with rock music, but those are just a few of the outstanding qualities that make Big Thief's Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You deserving of our No. 1 spot. Recorded in four cities and produced by drummer James Krivchenia, this double album is both a sonic adventure and an insightful lyrical exploration. In a single song, there are words of whimsy (rhyming "finish" with "potato knish") while at the same time exploring and accepting the differences in ourselves and those around us. And that's just one of 20 songs in an album that reveals something new for me on every listen. —Bob Boilen
And 12 more, in no particular order:
Tomberlin, i don't know who needs to hear this…
2022 brought us many records birthed in isolation and none more stunning than this. It's an album bathed in ambiance and uncertainty, yet somehow warm and compelling. —Bob Boilen
Enumclaw, Save the Baby
Pacific Northwest rock in the classic fashion: heartfelt, rebellious and as rough-edged as a dock stained by salt air, with a view as big as Puget Sound. —Ann Powers
Jockstrap, I Love You Jennifer B
A great, mind-expanding, constantly surprising, possibly controversial answer to the perpetually re-upped question, "What does 'rock music' even mean anymore?" —Jacob Ganz
MJ Lenderman, Boat Songs
The Asheville, N.C., guitarist and singer-songwriter (and member of Wednesday) brings exceptional humor, wit and empathy to twangy tracks about fulfillment and failure. —Marissa Lorusso
Editrix, Editrix II: Editrix Goes to Hell
Like Van Halen beamed from an alternate dimension via cable-access television, this is a noisy and sometimes goofy rock record that smiles through crooked teeth and baffling riffs. —Lars Gotrich
Metric, Formentera
Formentera is escapism that doesn't buy the possibility of escape from modern decay. Instead, it makes its dark peace with synth-rock clarity, a companion that offers to sit with you in late-night lost time. —Stefanie Fernández
Just Mustard, Heart Under
This Irish five-piece has found its happy place: in a basement corner, incanting obliquely and confidently towards the scrappy concrete in deep, dark thuds. The whiff of desperation underlying it all feels like a native species to the present day and age. —Andrew Flanagan
Angel Olsen, Big Time
I was head over heels in love with this deeply earnest, beautiful album from singer-songwriter Angel Olsen, that dives into the sound of classic country. —Hazel Cills
Soccer Mommy, Sometimes, Forever
On Soccer Mommy's dreamy and assured third album, Sophie Allison's indie-pop palette seamlessly incorporates everything from blissful early-'90s shoegaze to throbbing, glitchy industrial sounds. —Stephen Thompson
Young Jesus, Shepherd Head
A compendium of natural sounds funneled through snares and synths, Shepherd Head is delicate and grand at once — an open-air monastery or agora with the traces of a dance floor. —Vita Dadoo
Peter Matthew Bauer, Flowers
The Walkmen member wrestles with age, not to mention the joy and sadness of being alive. Flowers conjures a feeling of grandeur that recalls I Am the Cosmos, the only solo album by Big Star's Chris Bell. —John Morrison, WXPN
Drive-By Truckers, Welcome 2 Club XIII
Following a suite of timely sociopolitical screeds that delivered necessary messages to its Southern brethren, this century's most consistently great rock band digs deep into its own archival baggage. The result is a galvanizing reminder that it didn't earn that honorific without catastrophe or controversy. —Grayson Haver Currin

After Nels C. Nelson's recommendation that the American Museum of Natural History undertake excavation of Aztec Ruin, on January 15, 1916, Pliny Earle Goddard, associate curator of anthropology, made the first overtures for the museum's involvement with the site. [1] Three weeks passed before a reply was received from Henry D. Abrams, owner of the farm that encircled the principal prehistoric mound and a dozen lesser ancient dwellings. Although delayed because of deep snow on mountain passes to the northeast, which had held up the mail trains, the response was favorable.
Excavation of Aztec Ruin was something to which Abrams obviously had given much thought. "In the matter of excavating the ruins I may outline an [sic] tentative understanding," he wrote. "Among the things will be the removing of the debra [sic] from the wall on the outside clearing out the rooms and court restoreing [sic] of the walls in minor places strengthening and capping them with cement where required to leave them in a permanent condition, a creditable collection of specimens to remain permanently in such a manner that it cannot be disposed of by any person." In suggesting a three-year project, Abrams generously offered the use of a shaded camp spot, water from his cistern, and assorted fruits from his orchard. [2] He also stipulated that work commence before August 1, 1916. [3] To make it official, he notified Wissler, "I hereby grant to the Department of Anthropology, American Museum of Natural History, a concession to excavate and study the whole series of prehistoric ruins (known as Aztec Ruins) on my land in northwest New Mexico" (see Appendix C).
On behalf of the museum, Wissler quickly agreed to all these conditions, including clearing down to the original surface, removing debris adjacent to the exterior walls to assure drainage and passage, and compensating Abrams for any damage to crops planted in tillable areas between several mounds of house remains. [4]
About the matter of a specimen collection, Wissler expressed reservations. This was not because of any perceived impropriety in an individual's yen for private acquisition of scientifically valuable public artifacts. It was because of the attitudes of potential donors to the museum's field programs. "When you specify that a representative collection of objects is to be left in your keeping, a great deal depends upon your idea of a representative collection," Wissler cautioned Abrams. "You see it might be very difficult to persuade a donor to contribute several thousand dollars to put another man's ruin in shape and then leave him the collection as well." [5] Nonetheless, in order to secure the deal, the museum agreed that an Abrams collection would be kept at the site or its vicinity for local display and, furthermore, that the project would not be abandoned before the entire village was excavated.
The season of 1917 at Aztec Ruin was so fruitful in artifact returns and in prospects for future research that museum officials began to give serious thought to the permanent conservation of the site. It was an idea that would have a very long gestation period, at the end of which no one would be totally satisfied. One proposal was to persuade Abrams to turn the land over to an established institution or executive board which, in turn, would create a perpetual park incorporating the major and associated satellite remains. In the glow of favorable publicity about the archeological finds being made at the site on the Animas, Wissler felt the museum would have little trouble raising funds for this purpose and in administering the holding. [6] He was not aware of a charter of the museum prohibiting such activity. A second suggestion was that Abrams and several associates form a corporation, with themselves as trustees, to manage this kind of facility. [7] Before any action could be taken on the first option, World War I dried up sponsorship funds for the museum; Abrams, a small-town merchant and farmer, was not sufficiently sophisticated to undertake the second. For the time being, the ruin's future remained in a state of status quo.
Although Abrams had a sincere interest in the ruins, perhaps as much from the celebrity status they provided him locally as from any moral conviction, his primary concern was his farming enterprise. Nor, apparently, was he a man to be rushed into hasty decisions. With detailed instructions in hand concerning the museum's terms for acquisition of the land, Morris and Talbot Hyde conferred with Abrams on several occasions during the summer of 1918 without conclusive results. A flood of proposals and counter proposals ensued.
By 1918, the museum had decided to attempt to purchase approximately 25 acres of the Abrams farm having the densest concentration of Anasazi mounds (see Appendixes D and E). Since the owner was not financially able to donate the ruins to the museum, an outright purchase was necessary. [8] The museum administration made this decision with an eye to future work at a pace slower than had been possible earlier and, at the same time, to protect a previous sizable investment of time and money. The funds to do this were to come from Archer M. Huntington, whose name was not to be used in the negotiations. President Henry Fairfield Osborn remarked that, "the name of Huntington looms large in the West like that of Morgan and Rockefeller," and the price would inflate accordingly. [9] Wissler favored a down payment and two subsequent annual installments. Abrams could retain cultivation privileges for the 10 years but would forfeit all claim to specimens retrieved in the past or in the future. [10]
Providing he could replace them with suitable land at the same figure paid for the ruins, Abrams responded with an offer to sell the 25 acres. He set the sale price for the ruins and encompassing land between $6,000 and $6,500. [11] Since the prevailing price of Animas valley farm land was $300 per acre, Abrams felt that in actuality he would be donating the ruins to the museum and seeking compensation only for the usable land. [12] He would not accept time payments.
Nor, as he made clear in a letter to Wissler, would Abrams give up rights to his artifact collection. "Now as to the relics after having cared for and protected the ruins from destructive `diggers' holding them untill [sic] such a time when just such an institution, as now working them, should take charge of and conduct an [sic] Scientific operation, I feel that I am justly entitled to the few relics that have so far been apportioned to me by your museum." [13] So far as can be determined, Abrams had only a few specimens from the exploratory season of 1916.
Morris stated that the "relics" Abrams had selected but allowed to be shipped to New York for study were among some of the choicest exhumed at the site. Regardless, he felt that Abrams could be persuaded to relinquish them if he could be shown "that without the shadow of a doubt that this archaeological exhibit would be maintained in perpetuity." [14] One of the provisions written into the tentative outline of the sale was that the property would be used solely for scientific and educational purposes and that there be a permanent exhibit of duplicate specimens from the site. [15]
As for the farm itself, Abrams wanted continued use of the tract surrounding the ruins for three to five years and would take care of any upkeep to internal cross fences. He had just planted alfalfa in part of the open land and valued the untillable mounded areas as winter shelter for his stock. At the end of whatever time the museum allotted him, he would remove all pens and sheds from the ruin area except the large hay barn situated to the northeast of the East Ruin. The moving of this structure to another location on his farm would be the museum's responsibility.
Because of the slowness of both parties in coming to an agreement, the museum then asked for and received a five-year extension of its excavation contract with Abrams. This arrangement took its tenure to April 1, 1924. [16]
Meantime, Huntington unexpectedly refused to acquire the property on his own. However, he had no objections to the museum buying it with monies he provided. At that point, the museum lawyers informed Wissler that, even under the guise of a donor name, the institution charter would not permit its permanent retention of real estate. The Trustees added to the dilemma by balking at allowing Abrams to occupy and use the property after its purchase. [17] There, the dealings stalled.
Doubtless frustrated, in the spring of 1919 Wissler asked museum president Osborn for permission to go to Aztec in order to personally present Abrams with four alternatives: (1) the purchase by the American Museum of Natural History of the entire group of antiquities of which the West Ruin was the heart, a tract estimated then at some 23-plus acres, for $6,500; (2) purchase of the West Ruin only; (3) purchase, with a five-year option, of either of the above; or (4) lease either for the purpose of excavation. In the same memorandum, Wissler asked Osborn to approve repair funds for Aztec Ruin because the unusually severe winter had caused many walls to fall. [18]
To Wissler's dismay, Osborn was weary of the seemingly unending troubles associated with Aztec Ruin. "In view of the difficulty of preserving the excavated ruins, and possibly legal questions with reference to the museum's holding such property," Osborn told him, "I do not consider it advisable to purchase the ruins outright." [19] Osborn advocated a long-term lease not to exceed $1,000, with no additional expense after excavation ended. To him, the perpetual preservation of this bit of Anasazi cultural history was not worth the cost.
Notwithstanding this change of heart on the part of the museum's president, Wissler traveled to Aztec during the following summer to put into motion the involved proceedings, which would result in the purchase of only the ruin being dug (see Appendix F). The museum proposed to offer $3,000, contributed by Archer M. Huntington, for the West Ruin and the 6.4 acres of land upon which it sat. The parcel included the area selected for the Morris house. [20] Huntington's reputation had elevated the price. The $3,000 figure did not correlate with the earlier price tag of four times the land for double the amount. Even so, upon learning that Abrams might be considering presenting the property to the state of New Mexico, the museum was anxious that Huntington be recognized as the donor and get philanthropic credit. [21]
To further justify actions contrary to Osborn's wishes as of that May, Wissler claimed that, by owning the land, dirt from the excavation could be dumped where convenient and not have to be hauled away. That would save cartage fees. What were considered "unpromising" parts of the settlement would not have to be dug. The museum no longer would be bound by the agreement of 1916 to expose the entire structure. Perhaps most persuasive of all was the publicity the museum would receive from the growing number of visitors to the ruin. Some 1,200 sightseers had been counted in 1918. [22]

LOONA Announces Long-Awaited Comeback To Release This October
Orbits—are you ready? After months of waiting, LOONA has finally announced the comeback everyone's been waiting for!
Today, LOONA released an official teaser on YouTube for their 3rd mini album, titled [12:00]. The new EP follows [+ +] (released in August 2018), repackage [x x] (released in February 2019), and [#] (released in February 2020).
Judging by the teaser's hashtags, it appears the album title is read as "Midnight". The brief trailer flashes through 12 cities and their respective time zones: Seoul (South Korea), Budapest (Hungary), Paris (France), Hong Kong, Taipei (Taiwan), Bangkok (Thailand), Reykjavik (Iceland), London (UK), Auckland (New Zealand), Tokyo (Japan), Prague (Czech Republic), Los Angeles (USA).
Throughout the clip, a simple instrumental plays over a soundbite that appears to be pulled from a rocket launch countdown. When the drop hits, the instrumental transitions to a heavy bass line which many fans are assuming was pulled from the new album's title track.
According to LOONA's official social media update, [12:00] will release on October 19, 2020 at 6:00PM Korean standard time. Coincidentally (or perhaps intentionally), this coincides with Heejin's 20th birthday. Heejin is widely known as the first member revealed under LOONA's predebut project.
Blockberry Creative previously alluded to a comeback earlier this week in a Korean media statement regarding their lawsuit. However, after waiting seven months for a new release, fans weren't expecting the album announcement so soon.

Originally slated for February 7th, 2020, the second-part of the Fengshen Cinematic Universe went into stasis until a brief theatrical rollout in October 2020. Now, though, nearly a year after it was to hit cinemaplexes, Jiang Ziya (also known as Legend of Deification or Jiang Ziya: Legend of Deification) comes available on home video to continue the adaptation of shenmo novel "Investiture of the Gods." The first part, Ne Zha, explored the notion of controlling ones destiny and the importance of autonomy amid a rollicking frenzy of animated action. This made sense as Ne Zha focused on a young boy learning to confront his destiny. For Jiang Ziya, the action is still there, but it's presented in a more traditional wuxia style whose poetry is not lost among the dynamic action.
War grips the land of the Shang Dynasty as the Nine-Tailed Fox (Shan Xin) betrays the emperor, leading the Fox Clan for domination of the mortal realm. Serving as Heaven's general is Jiang Ziya (voiced by Zheng Xi/Christopher Sabat), who defeats Nine-Tailed Fox and is offered the role as leader of all gods if he kills the fox demon. However, Jiang Ziya stays his hand upon learning that Nine-Tailed Fox is somehow connected to an innocent girl, one who will lose her life if Nine-Tailed Fox dies. Banished from Heaven for disobeying orders, Jiang Ziya lives in exile by the North Sea with the shame of disobedience. It's not until 10 years go by that that an unexpected arrival to the North Sea offers an opportunity to discover the truth.
After seeing Ne Zha last year, I've been eagerly awaiting Jiang Ziya and it does not disappoint. The animation is matured, letting go of the more childish circular designs of Ne Zha for sharper angles denoting the violence inherent in the story. The opening, in particular, is quite breathtaking as the prologue distracts from the massive info dump through the gongbi-esque art direction, elevating the action into something epic. Though the film transitions into something more conventional once the prologue is over, the staging of the action sequences maintains that same feeling of vastness which one might only feel during a particularly harrowing live-action sequence. There are a few moments wherein the action slows down as something passes the focus of the camera which hints at perhaps a 3D experience as part of the theatrical release, but, instead of being a distraction, the slowing down offers a moment for the audience to process what they're seeing. For instance, a beautifully constructed sequence sees Jiang Ziya in an altercation with restless spirits whose gathered forces enable them to control the skeleton of a long dead beast. Without the slowing down, the audience would focus on the skeleton and how the spirits move it in attempts to puncture Jiang Ziya. This is not where first-time feature directors Teng Cheng and Wei Li want you to be focused and the slowing down enables the audience to understand that the danger to be addressed isn't coming from the seemingly animated skeleton, but from the spirits who maneuver it. This sequence could easily be shrugged off as a narrative moment that puts the aggrieved characters on a path of amelioration, yet, the focus on the souls and the following explanation from Jiang Ziya as to what and who they are begins a shift to what Jiang Ziya is really about: the weight of war. It's easy enough to believe that you are righteous and the enemy is wicked, especially when you're following the orders of The Revered Master of Jingxu Hall (Heaven) and your enemy is literally a demon. But what of the soldiers who fight by your side? What of the people whose lives were turned upside down in the conflict? How does one measure the good they've done or what good may come when the land itself bears the scars?
While there is no requirement to have seen Ne Zha prior to watching Jiang Ziya, it certainly helps to understand the mid-credits sequence that is surely to have fans of the first film giggling in their seats. That same sequence ends with a message from the Fengshen Cinematic Universe wishing everyone health, happiness, and a desire to be altogether soon. It's a hopeful message, even sweet, as the pandemic is better controlled in some areas while others still argue over how best to reclaim a sense of normalcy. In times like these, stories like Jiang Ziya are more important than ever. Even when the story goes to some dark places, like using cultural traditions long since let go of to create the internal logic, there is always hope. In the case of the character Jiang Ziya, it's the recognition that the act of defiance is not in opposition of the greater good, that one cannot truly care for people if you're willing to sacrifice one as though they are not worth the same as the many, that blind devotion is not the same as love and absolutism only breeds distrust and failure. I've already written about the rebellious messaging within Ne Zha and that aspect continues well into Jiang Ziya. These are not direct tethers, where the actions of one seem connected to the other, but it's easy to see how future stories, should these characters engage with each other, come together as one.
In regard to the home release, there are no bonus materials included. All that purchasers get are previews for upcoming Well Go USA releases, a teaser trailer for Jiang Ziya, as well as the full trailer, and options for language and subtitles. Additionally, where Ne Zha came in a 4K UHD option, Jiang Ziya does not. Considering the beauty of the animation, I'm particularly saddened by this and the UHD would certainly make home viewing even more transportive.
Armed with beautiful animation and a compelling story, Jiang Ziya is well worth the wait. A word of caution, though, that while the story is not graphic by any means, the depiction of violence may not be suitable for younger viewers. You'll know your kids better than anyone, so trust your gut if going in blind, but I do advise that this film is more appropriate for audiences older than, say, the Frozen II (2019) crowd. Adventure and fantasy await all who join Jiang Ziya on his quest for the truth, but not all who can journey should. You know what I mean?
There are no bonus features available on the Jiang Ziya home release.
In select theaters October 1st, 2020.
Available on Blu-ray, DVD, and digital February 9th, 2021.
For more information, go to the Well Go USA official Jiang Ziya website.
Final Score: 4 out of 5.

Hello all,
I'm playing star citizen and with the driver version 22.5.1, everything works fine.
I try to update in 22.7.x and with last 22.10.1 and all time I crash on desktop. Do you have the same problem like me ? I would like to understand why from 22.5.2 to the last that crash all time. and do we have some answer to resolve the issue ?
Hello Bro, the only thing I can tell you is that the AMD drivers are very bad, the driver developers do not do a good job, I have the same problem as you and the only solution I found was to go back to the 22.5.1 driver, do not use drivers newer ones are terribly bad
Yes it what I do every time that new drivers release. But why do we have it. It's not only Star Citizen. I know some other played DCS World and have also driver issue. AMD can we have am explanation please
Yes. WELL KNOWN.. But AMD don't care. so.. whatever....
Anything post 22.5.1 crashes Star Citizen for me. Even the latest 22.10.3 .....
Yes 22.10.3 get crash for me too. I do not think that AMD don't care but if some AMD guys here in the forum can gave explanation. It will be great. I change nvidia to amd but....did a made a mistake ? so please amd can you answer..
I just feel that later AMD drivers give overall better performance, with some fixes.
Though they (AMD) did something to their drivers post 22.5.1 that screwed things up for some games, like Elite Dangerous. Which I suspect also impacts Star Citizen as well. Or maybe it's something both ED and SC have to change in their engine to be in some compliance standard for DX11 or something......
But since we have tons of communication about the matter from both AMD and CIG, we can comfortably assume that they give flying pancakes.

For our final project in our Data Visualization course we were tasked with creating a public visualization using data relevant to a current affair of our choice. It was a chance for us to use all of our data wrangling/visualization tools that we acquired during the semester. For this project I used python and its pandas library, R, R Studio, javascript, d3, and googleCharts. Hopefully, my project shines a spotlight on Staten Island, New York City's forgotten borough. And instead of just focusing on one Island aspect, I decided to expand the project parameters and take a look at Staten Island through a few different lenses.
Actually, I have been thinking about a project like this for some time. This website spawned from an idea I had regarding my eventual CUNY SPS MSDA Capstone Project. My aim for the Capstone project will be to create a data memoir, a bildungsroman for the 21st century. Taking a story and interlacing data visualizations throughout could be a kind of novel genre (albeit one that appeals to the statistically inclined bookworm). It could also serve as a teaching tool, as long as the code to create the vis accompanies the material.
So, I set up this website to read more like a book. Hopefully, someone who visits the site will start with this post and continue reading to the end. This project serves as a nice starting point for what I envision a grander project could become. I never made a website before and a lot of what I tried to do proved to be too difficult. I incorporated an .html file that I generated using R Markdown, and for the sake of continuity, I tried to make sure all of the pages had the same (plain/boring) look. I know I can customize the R Markdown CSS but this was causing issues that I didn't have time to figure out. Website design is definitely something I need to improve upon.
So why Staten Island? Well first off, I think I can legitimately stake claim to the title "Staten Island's #1 Data Vis Enthusiast"! Secondly, Staten Island is such a magical place. Staten Island is the San Francisco of the East is an idea that should be out on the web regardless of its validity (the hills here do not compare to SF, and I live in the hilly section of SI). And there is something about islands that speaks to me (and to others too, it seems). Maybe it's the idea that the borders are so definite; you're from the Island or you're not. It could be the joy I get from taking a boat ride to get to work everyday.
In fact, I'm not from the Island. I wasn't born here. But a lot of people are born here and a lot of these people stay their entire lives. I live 2 blocks from where my wife's great-grandfather built his first home. My brother and sister went to the same high school that my grandparents went to. Staten Island is that type of place, it has "old eyes." After graduating high school, my father left the Island for the army only to return 25 years later. Now when I think about the connection he has to Staten Island, I can't help but think of this guy.
My family didn't move to Staten Island until I was in 7th grade. It was such a different place compared to any of the places I had lived previously. Still, it is different and I hope that over the next few pages you get a chance to explore the Island with me serving as your data guide.

How Flying Eagles Crashed Out of U20 World Cup Tournament
Flying Eagles Monday night crashed out of this year's U20 World Cup after they lost 2-1 to fellow West Africans Senegal in Lodz.
The Young Teranga Lions, who stopped Nigeria 2-0 in the final of the WAFU U20 Nations Cup in December, took the lead in the 36th minute through danger man Sagna with a cool finish.
Nigeria U20s had chances to draw level through substitute Yera Sor off a quick counter attack.
And on 43 minutes, the Flying Eagles failed to make the most of a promising free kick from the edge of the Senegal box after the lively Sor was fouled.
In first half stoppage time, Ibrahima Niane made it 2-0 when he tapped home from the near post after some good work from the right wing.
The Flying Eagles pulled a goal back on 50 minutes, when Success Makanjuola's free kick was deflected into the Senegal net.
The outstanding Aniekeme Okon was later credited with the goal.
The Flying Eagles continued to chase the game and enjoyed a better ball possession, but it was too little, too late as Nigeria said goodbye to Poland.
The team also crashed out at the same stage of the competition four years ago in New Zealand.

Nike LeBron 12 Ext (Rubber City)
UPDATE: Nailed it. Straight up whether you ball or not, these LBJ12s are straight fire. You can try cop a pair when they hit Nike.com and select Swoosh accounts this April 25th for $250 USD.
The Nike LeBron 12 is a big, brawny ball boot pumped full of testosterone, so this new rendition which sees the silhouette clad in tough black rubber stolen off a monster truck tyre is apropos. However, there's another inspiration behind this bold design; the four major tyre companies once held down their HQs in LBJ's hometown of Akron, Ohio. The chromed-out Swoosh therefore has self-evident antecedents too. It's an intriguing look, and probably an essential cop if you've got all the other Akron-inspired LeBron joints. It arrives at stores on April 25th.

A 13-year-old schoolgirl is taken Oxford County Council to court on the basis their transgender inclusion toolkit puts her at risk.
The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons and instead identified as Miss A, is challenging the implementation of the "Trans Inclusion Toolkit." It instructs schools to allow transgender students to access sex-segregated spaces that align with their "identified gender," including changing rooms, toilets and bedrooms on residential trips.
Miss A said the toolkit has "a very significant impact on me as a girl":
I am very surprised that the council never asked the opinion of girls in Oxfordshire about what we thought before they published the toolkit. Under these guidelines I have no right to privacy from the opposite sex in changing rooms, loos or on residential trips. Sports could end up being unsafe as I am a really small teenage girl and boys are bigger than girls. This guidance could be used in any educational establishment in Oxfordshire, which possible includes sports clubs. The guidance makes me feel that my desire for privacy, dignity, safety and respect is wrong. It makes me feel sad, powerless and confused. I recently did my level 1 safeguarding course for guider training and I don't understand how allowing boys and girls to share private spaces is okay.
READ MORE: Security to be Given to Oxford Professor Following Threats from Transgender Activists
The Safe Schools Alliance, a campaign group consisting of parents, teachers, health and education professionals, who fight against the transgender ideology and for the safeguarding of sex-based protections, are supporting Miss A in her case.
Today at the High Court a 13 year old girl (Miss A) filed a request for a Judicial Review against @OxfordshireCC on the basis that their schools trans inclusion toolkit puts her at risk. We are supporting Miss A in this case.
Please see our website:https://t.co/JvIB30yFqR
— Safe Schools Alliance (@SafeSchools_UK) February 5, 2020
A mother from Oxfordshire, Victoria Edwards, along with a teacher from the county, both had already filed cases to the High Court on this issue, but have dropped theirs to throw all their support behind Miss A.
READ MORE: Mom Says Her Biological Male Child Identified as Girl from 18 Months Old, Transitioned at 4
The anonymous teacher said the guidance "forces her to act against" her own beliefs:
Under this guidance all teachers are required to ignore sex-based protections, as set out in the Equality Act 2010, which is problematic because teachers have a statutory duty to protect children from harm. Should children suffer harm as a result of the abandonment of basic safeguarding, this opens teachers up to liability. Additionally, teachers are required to undermine parental responsibilities and rights when they should be working together in the best interests of children. This is also not conducive to good outcomes for children.
Edwards noted that the Trans Inclusion Kit also "encourages parental alienation and suggests that any parent who doesn't affirm their child's chosen gender identity may be a safeguarding risk and causing harm to their child," and advises anyone who criticises the new rules should be sanctioned for "acting hatefully."

TechMate was early this term as I'm to become a grandma any minute! So, Christmas themed Extreme Adventure Park needed to be created early!!
It was a special evening for TechMate (for girls from grade 4 – 6 and their significant male) because TechMate started 3 years ago with a number of our Year 6 students who have been attending since inception….. it was their last TechMate before they head to the senior school! I was overwhelmed by the kindness and thoughtfulness of these students and their parents……TechMate cup-cakes were made and sent in to enjoy…..what an evening!
We began the evening re-visiting some of the wonderful nights and challenges we had experienced over the last 3 years. Then TechMates were given the challenge of creating an Extreme Adventure Park with a Christmas theme.
Together the girls and their TechMate discussed, ideated and planned their creations, altering and changing as difficulties were met in their design! Materials were gathered and work commenced with laughter and plenty of trail and error. Circuits, LittleBits and simple mechanics were included to give life to their stories.
Santas were catapulted, went on wild sled rides, became dizzy on carousels, did bungee jumps, covered in snow, washed in a water fall and flew through the air! Presents were delivered by Rube Goldberg machines, roller coasters and ziplines.
Thank you TechMates for such a memorable evening 😊
Video captures some of the fun:

Looking back at her childhood, Denise Kinney, now in her 50s, says she always had some degree of muscle weakness and also didn't have the stamina other kids had, but she enjoyed athletics. However, whenever she played basketball, by the second quarter, she'd be out of energy and didn't know why.
Decades later, she finally got the answer, but not because she had been searching all those years. She'd simply been living and enjoying her life when one day everything changed. Denise shares her story in this episode of the Catching Health podcast.

This article is motivated by extant literature on how first-world countries, such as the UK, increasingly face problems with poverty arising from employment (in-work poverty). The main problem addressed by this article concerns making a clearer conceptual link between HRM philosophy and practice and in-work poverty. To address this conceptual problem, life history interviews (n=27) were conducted with employees experiencing in-work poverty, due to their effectiveness at explaining why people get into low pay cycles. Based on a lens built through consulting literature on socially responsible HRM (SRHRM) and in-work poverty, the findings demonstrate a conceptual link between HRM philosophy and practice and in-work poverty, resulting in a proposed model of socially irresponsible HRM (SIHRM). We suggest that, negative and important employee outcomes from forms of SIHRM arise not just in the work setting, but also at the work-life interface. The article has implications in terms of informing a range of HRM and in-work poverty debates. Further research and the testing of the ideas generated through this article is recommended before concluding on the wider implications of a model of HRM based on social irresponsibility.

"I have no love lost for Greenpeace," Ramesh said while referring to his own experience with the organisation, "but shunning Greenpeace does no credit to us as an open and liberal democracy". The former minister who was addressing a programme on "greening India's growth", jointly organised by think-tank ICRIER, World Bank and the Global Green Growth Institute. "Having contradictions, complexities and conflicts are essential elements of economic growth and democracy," he said.
The Intelligence Bureau report, 'Impact of NGOs on Development', makes the case that non-governmental organisations and their international donors are planning to target many fresh economic development projects including those in Gujarat.
Correcting the impression that Greenpeace was an internationally funded outfit, Ramesh said: "Greenpeace has a domestic funding largely. A large number of local philanthropists have funded Greenpeace."
Ramesh said Greenpeace had made "his life miserable" when he was conducting the public consultation on Bt Brinjal and later when the group took out an advertisement charging him with caring more for Tata than the Olive Ridley turtles. He said the government cannot ask NGOs to stop their protest because their job as a protester is to protest, while the job of a government is to govern.
On Wednesday, Greenpeace had responded saying that the IB report "is designed to muzzle and silence civil society who raise their voices against injustices to people and the environment by asking uncomfortable questions about the current model of growth."
Greenpeace spokesperson Abhishek Pratap had stressed that the organisation's motto "is to intimate the government that there exists a serious need to address sustainability of energy delivery system in the country. India is building coal-based electricity but 30 crore people have no electricity."
Ramesh said making choices for achieving balanced growth was not easy. India added 65,000 megawatt of power capacity in the past five years. "Nuclear power generation is only 3% of supply, while supply from renewable sources is going to take some time and hydel power has its own set of problems… In short to mid-term, India has to depend on low quality coal for power. "Most of coal reserves are in forests areas of Odisha and Jharkhand," he said. "In such situation, how do we make choices?"
Ramesh said he hoped that the controversy "will settle down and I hope both sides will talk to each other and not talk at each other". He said restoring the lagging economy should be a priority but India cannot afford to adopt "a model of grow now and pay later".
He suggested that while making efforts to restore India's economy, steps should also be taken to achieve green growth with a focus on sectors such as energy, transport, manufacturing, building and construction. "The real challenge ahead would be making technological and investment choices to balance economic growth and environment sustainability

Things to Check on When Selecting the Right Mass Building Program
There are certain things that you need to start when choosing the best building program. Individuals who engage in any mass building activity do it for sports and also to change their appearance. It is crucial that you should ensure that you start any of the programs for the best reasons. The mass building programs will involve a different diet, exercising, and having a trainer. The proteins are essentials when someone has decided to build their muscles. The mas building activity involves taking lots of water. This is because our bodies are made of a large percentage of water especially the muscles. Water also helps you to gain water lost through sweating while exercising. A lean body will also be achieved since toxic waste will be removed while exercising. Taking a nutritious and healthy diet is important if you want to build any muscle and gain some weight. Muscles are stretched when one is lifting weights and exercising and the best way to repair the torn muscles is getting enough sleep or rest. When you want to select the right mass building program to start, you need to check on some items.
You need to know whether the program will help you achieve your goals. When you intend to mass build yourself, it will take some time and dedication to the program. There are various programs developed by gyms and bodybuilding agencies to help you achieve your goals. Each program is built for a specific individual and they need to commit themselves to this program. When the achievement you want to make is consistent with the program that has been outlined then it becomes simpler to start the program. Body building involves three things which are exercising, dieting, and tracking your progress. There should also be well-experienced trainers with some supplements used to bridge the gap on your goals. The intake of calories is not required since that leads to more body fat.
You need to know how much it will cost you to mass build and an excellent expected period to have the right kind of body that you want. You will be able to plan on the amount of money to be spent and the period when you have such crucial information. It becomes easier to plan and find the required funds and time so that you can commit to the program when you have information on expected costs and time period. The amount of money you will spend should be within the budget that you have and the period to engage in the program should meet your routine. You will be able to easily track the performance you have made and the spending made during the bodybuilding program.

How to Change a Car Battery
Knowing how to change a car battery can help you when your in a pinch and can also save you a good chunk of money by being able to do it yourself.
Without a battery in good working order you risk the possibility of being stuck somewhere with your car not being able to start
So, how do change a car battery?
How to Tell If You Need to Change Your Battery
There are a couple of signs that will help you confirm you have a flat battery.
First off, when you try to start your car, nothing happens. The engine will crank if the battery is weak but not if it's dead.
Other reasons why your vehicle is not starting include faulty ignition switch or starter.
No dome light as you open the car door is another sign of a flat battery. Modern cars generate a door chime when you insert the keys.
If the battery is weak or totally dead, the dome light may appear dim or not at all. You will also not hear a chime.
Your radio and headlights will not work either if your car battery is weak or totally dead. Alternate problems could be a corroded battery or blown main fuse.
Lastly, if your car won't start without a jump in the morning but works fine later in the day, your car has a weak battery.
The only solution for a weak or totally dead car battery is to replace it with a new one.
Want to know how to change your vehicle's battery and save on battery replacement costs?
In this post, we offer a simple how-to guide for changing a car battery.
Tools Needed to Change a Car Battery
To replace the flat battery, there are a couple of things you need.
- Rubber gloves
- Owner's manual
- Old blanket
- A new battery (buy a battery recommended for your vehicle. Check the owner's manual)
- 0-14 mm socket wrench
- Rags
- Terminal cleaning tool
- Battery cleaner or anti-corrosion grease
- Safety glasses
Following safety procedures and using proper tools in handling batteries is highly recommended.
Remember, you are working with a car battery containing hydrogen-oxygen gases.
If you remember your high school chemistry, combining the gases creates an explosive reaction. This can cause severe burn injuries. To avoid severe injuries, follow the instructions in this step by step guide.
Step by Step Guide to Removing and Changing the Battery
1. Find Your Car Battery
The majority of car owners are not aware of the location of the car battery. To find the location of your car battery, check your owner's manual. Most cars have the car battery under the front hood.
Others may have the car battery located under a floorboard or even behind the wheel well. Once you locate the battery, you will find two terminals with attached cables.
The cable with a red plastic cover is usually connected to the positive post and has a positive (+) symbol.
For the black cable, it has the negative (-) symbol. Before changing the car battery, put on the rubber gloves and safety glasses.
2. Use the Battery Cleaner
Spray the contents of the battery cleaner on the battery terminals. This cleaner helps to dissolve corrosion from the cables, terminals, and clamp. By cleaning these components, you improve current flow and prevent voltage leakage.
After cleaning the battery terminals, remove the clamp holding down the battery. For this step, use a combination wrench. Loosen the nuts and pull the clamp away.
Make sure it does not come into contact with the negative terminal.
3. Remove the Cables
Loosen the bolt securing the negative terminal to the battery post. After the nut is loose, use a terminal puller and remove the cable from the battery post. While doing so, use the rag to cover the positive terminal.
This prevents a short circuit and protects you from electric shock.
Repeat the same for the positive terminal. Remember, ensure that no cable comes into contact with metal objects simultaneously. Once you remove the terminals, remove the clamp holding down the battery.
Place the clamp and all nuts on the ground. This ensures that you do not misplace them. Lift the battery by holding the carrying strap and place it on the ground.
Be careful because the battery is still heavy despite being flat.
After removing the battery, inspect the tray where the old battery was resting on. Can you note any signs of corrosion or rust? If corrosive deposits are present, prepare a mixture of baking soda and water.
Clean the tray and make sure you have your gloves on.
4. Installing a New Battery
Lift the new battery by the carrying strap and place it on the tray. Take the securing clamp and secure the battery using the bolts. Before connecting the terminals, grease the posts and terminals with an anti-corrosion grease.
It prevents corrosion, which also affects how the battery charges. Remember, go easy on the grease.
Remove the rag from the positive terminal and connect it to the correct battery post. Afterward, connect the negative terminal. Make sure the battery does not wiggle and secure the bolts tightly.
Now, you can give yourself a small pat on the back and congratulate yourself for replacing a car battery.
5. Test Your Car
Take your car keys, insert them in the ignition, and try to start it. What happened? Did your car start correctly?
If not, switch it off and double-check the connections. If your car starts, the next step is to dispose of the old battery.
How to Dispose of a Car Battery Properly
There are three ways of properly disposing of old car batteries. The first method is to get in touch with your local mechanic. Ask them if they take old car batteries.
If they do not, find out if there is a local recycling center near you.
To find a local recycling center near you, make a quick search on the internet. Get their contact information and make the call or send an email. If they accept old car batteries, drive to the closest car battery recycling center, and drop it off.
The last method is driving to the store where you bought your new battery. They can help you dispose of the old car battery. Why recycle or dispose of your car battery properly?
It pays to be kind to the environment.
Bottom Line
A new car battery can last 3 to 5 years with minimum fuss or maintenance. But there are a few things you can do to extend its life.
First off, try to avoid running the stereo or air conditioning at all times as they drain the battery fast.
Instead, open the car window and play your jams on your smartphone (with the speaker option on not headsets).
If you follow these steps, your car battery should last long.

Looking out for your lawn during the snow season in Muskegon, Michigan, maybe one of the last things you want to think about, but practicing correct lawn care in Michigan even during the freezing months can help prepare your property to turn back into a lush landscape in the spring. To help you tend to your grass in the winter, the lawn-mowing experts at Preferred Lawn Cared have a few tips to share.
How to protect for your lawn on Snow Season in Muskegon, Michigan:
The harsh weather conditions of winter can easily suck out all the nutrients from your lawn, leaving it brown and brittle. Make sure to use a fertilizing mix that will reactivate growth and make your grass look extra verdant when the warm weather comes back.
Proper Lawn Mowing:
Mowing your grass too short can leave you with bald patches, but not cutting it short enough can make it a cozy sanctuary for critters, and will lead to thick thatch buildup. To avoid this lawn maintenance problem, we recommend a height of 2″ to 2.5″.
Remove All Items From Your Lawn
While you may think it doesn't matter if you leave out a lawn chair or a couple of toys on your property during the winter, doing so can create dead areas once the added weight of snow comes down. To avoid extra work later, remove any stuff that is still on the grass, and make sure to also shovel or rake debris off the ground every couple weeks.
Nothing is better for Muskegon residents than being able to enjoy their lawns after a long, brutal winter. Michigan's climate means that maintaining a healthy lawn isn't always easy, but Preferred Lawn Care is here to help with superior lawn care services.
Preferred Lawn Care has proudly served Muskegon area, and they offer these lawn care services to help you make your lawn look at its best even in winter days. Other services we offer are lawn care, winter lawn care, snow season lawn care, fertilization, weed control, aeration, pest control, insect control, pruning, and mulch.
By following these tips, you'll have a greener lawn once spring arrives. For the best lawn care and maintenance services, call Preferred Lawn Care at 231-670-9873, or go online to their website for more information.

Burhill Golf and Leisure Limited, the leading owner and operator golf courses in the UK, has introduced an environment policy designed to enrich the environments of its 10 courses and promote sound, sustainable management of its facilities.
The policy, which demonstrates a high degree of environmental awareness and quality, covers all aspects of on and off-course operations and sets out clear guidelines on the management of water, habitat and waste, as well as introducing an action plan to reduce the group's energy consumption by 15% within six months.
Burhill Golf & Leisure Development Manager Hugh Knowles said: "There is a common perception that golf is bad for the environment, but this is simply not the case. With responsible management, golf can positively enrich environments and that is something we have always aimed to achieve across our golf courses.
"The environment policy effectively formalises many of the sound practices we were already carrying out, as well as introducing some new elements, and, importantly, gives clear guidance to all our staff on the best way of managing our golf facilities in a responsible, sustainable way. The policy will also enable us to directly protect the environment through instigation of our Integrated Pest management policies (IPM)."
Among the initiatives already underway at the group's three golf clubs and seven pay-and-play golf centres are a heather restoration project at Burhill Golf Club; ornithological surveys and the addition of bird boxes at Abbey Hill Golf Centre, Milton Keynes; a new reservoir at Hoebridge Golf Centre, Surrey; waste water recycling for machinery wash down at Burhill Golf Club, Wycombe Heights Golf Centre and Abbey Hill Golf Centre; plus integrated supplier plans to reduce packaging and haulage.
An immediate energy reduction plan was put in place at the beginning of 2009 with energy audits being carried out at all 10 facilities, resulting in boiler efficiency improvements, new insulation of heating systems and roof spaces, overnight charging of electric buggies, complete re-lamping of internal and external lighting with energy efficient bulbs, plus the introduction of 'motion detector' light switches.
"Ultimately, these are actions which are not just good for the environment, they are good for business, too," added Hugh Knowles. "Combining them into a policy which our staff and customers can see and appreciate has been worthwhile and, I believe, will result in the sustainable management of our golf courses and facilities for years to come."
