Construction planning is fundamental to your civil earthworks project's success. You will use your construction plan to develop the budget and schedule for work. Part of planning includes choosing technology, defining the work tasks, estimating resources and durations for tasks, and identifying dependencies or interactions between tasks. Finally, planning a successful construction project is deciding about the relationships between project participants, particularly which civil earthworks contractor to choose.
How to choose a civil earthworks contractor
You must consider appropriate technology and construction when choosing a civil earthworks contractor. These are critical ingredients in your plan to help it succeed. For example, a decision whether to pump concrete or transport it in buckets will directly affect the cost and time involved in construction. You should consider each transportation method's relative costs, reliabilities, and equipment availability.
Different civil earthworks contractors may use alternative methods and technologies from which you must choose. You may need to consider different construction plans based on the method or assumptions these contractors use. Only when you've laid out the different plans, can you test the alternatives for cost, time, and reliability of approaches.
Expect to examine different alternatives if you're using a bidding competition for your civil earthworks project. You can include in your Request For Proposal that contractors prepare plans for each alternative design based on a construction method you suggest. You can also request they prepare plans as part of the value engineering process.
Using a computer simulation to compare the different plans will help you examine the merits and drawbacks of each plan. For example, if one company plans to use a particular piece of equipment on the construction site, you immediately need to know if there is sufficient access space for it. Three-dimensional models in a CAD system will help you simulate space requirements and identify interferences.
Why you want to choose the best civil earthworks contractor
The choice of civil earthworks contractor is a game-changer for any construction project. Here are a few must-haves when choosing the best contractor:
- Senior management with experience delivering projects of $3 billion and more
- A company that delivers on time and on a budget—consistently
- Civil earthworks company with the constructible experience to ensure cost and schedule certainty
- One who can provide recommendations and actions to save time and money
- A company that provides in-house survey teams tasked with identifying opportunities to move less dirt
- Management who understands the value of investing in new technology for equipment like GPS units
- Staff trained in equipment, technology, and innovation techniques
- A civil earthworks contractor who makes strategic acquisitions to enhance and grow their integrated site works
- One who offers full-service earth moving, surveying, design, and site development services
Choosing the best civil earthworks contractor for all your construction projects means you'll have top-tier solutions. It also means using the most advanced and efficient technology and equipment to keep your project on time and on a budget—which is what every construction project owner wants and needs.

Don't Buy A Draper Spokeshave!
25 Comments
I wouldn't buy a spokeshave from them either but there are a lot of tools they do stock that are great, so I would not run the company down completely on one duff tool.
Note: My 18v battery drill and Hot Air Gun from Draper are fantastic
Sadly, this is reflective of the situation with Draper and other companies, such as Silverstone, which sell products of variable quality and specifications under the same reference.
I recently purchased a #4 plane which, to my surprise, came with a corrugated sole… and no mention of it on the packaging. While it worked fine, it definitely wasn't the same product as the one reviewed positively in an earlier blog from Paul. In this context, recommending brands or products becomes quite tricky unfortunately
PS: I meant to write Sliverline rather than Silverstone in the above post…
I too bought Silverline #4 plane and it came with a grooved sole. This was a total surprize to me too, though silverline website now does say "Milled sides & fluted base".
Being in the US I literally just bought the Stanley analog of that spokeshave and I haven't even sharpened it yet. Is that going to be a waste of my time, too?
Craig, I own both a classic Stanley spokeshave and a brand new one. Both function very well. The only thing on the newer one is to make sure the back of the blade AND the back of the top 0late are flat. The newer ones aren't always ground completely flat. This is a one time correction (unless you drop the top plate). Otherwise, I am able to use both equally well.
I hope not, for your sake. I bought the Stanley version (US) several years ago and am fairly well pleased with its performance. I alternate its use with my Lei Neilson and get good results.
I have some Draper tools which have performed well for me. On the other hand, I have looked at other Draper tools in shops and walked away because of obvious quality concerns. Some Draper tools get very poor reviews on the internet due to poor quality/poor accuracy – so I know not to waste time even looking at those.
When the standards of any particular tool are below an acceptable level, then I am grateful to reviewers in general and to Mr Sellers in particular. These people take the time and effort to guide us away from buying a pig in a poke – and towards better purchases' Manufacturers of quality items, check components and raw materials on receipt and/or expect their suppliers to have checked before shipping. Producers worth their salt take steps to prevent rubbish goods from leaving their factories so they do not find their way to the hands of buyers via shop shelves. In the case of Draper and some other manufacturers, it appears they expect purchasers to QA their finished product. To me, this beggar belief. Surely Draper et al appreciate the effect of critical reviews in the public domain. If the substandard products attract valid critical comment then the fault rests with the company. If potential buyers are then cautious about other Draper tools (which may well be fit for service) then Draper has only itself to blame. The remedy is in the hands of the company management.
Francois mentioned Silverstone (I guess he meant Silverline). I recently bought a new Silverline No 6 fore planes which, I was lead to believe, had something wrong with the packaging. In fact, the packaging was fine. The sole was more concave than I have ever seen on any plane in my life! The hole in the iron (for the head of the cap iron screw) had not been completely stamped out – a large chunk of jagged metal remained – making it very difficult to assemble and disassemble the iron & cap iron. The edge on the iron was worse than I have seen on any plane – it needed regrinding. There were rough edges to the body casting in awkward corners, (probably bad enough to draw blood but I did not test it). The thread of the depth adjusting nut (and/or bolt) was poorly cut and almost impossible to shift. The obvious course of action would have been to send it straight back – right? Wrong! Thanks to reviews I had read before buying, I was expecting many the problems. I have restored a number of old planes to excellent working order and, since following Mr Sellers excellent guidance, I now do a better job much faster than my first effort. (Thanks for that Mr Sellers!). The plane cost me £15:00 (including delivery) and, after my fettling, works like a charm. The concave sole is so bad that (if I bother with it), a lot of grinding will be spread over a long period before it is fully resolved. However, it works beautifully for my current purposes – so may corrcting the sole may become a very low priority – at least for the time being. For me, this was a bargain and I was happy. However, I wonder what would have happened if it had been bought by someone with little or no experience. They would, as a minimum, have found the experience discouraging. Many modern tradesmen, whose time is money, would either have returned it or thrown it straight in the bin.
One wonders what these companies hope to achieve by this absence of quality control. I have a chisel acquired as part of a job lot and which was manufactured in the PRC. The steel has been 'hardened and tempered' to have the qualities of plasticine. I keep it for amusement (it certainly has no practical value). Are Draper, Silverline and others trying to compete with makers of plasticine chisels etc. to see who can produce the lowest quality. It cannot be about price. A tool which is not fit for purpose is expensive at any price. A tool which works well and gives a lifetime of service is cheap at (almost) any price.
There is enough precedent in the graveyard of British manufacturers to demonstrate that making and selling substandard products is like petitioning for one's own death warrant. Draper, Silverline et al have proved they have the ability to produce decent tools; They have also proved that sometimes they cannot be bothered.
Well said Ken.
I had a similar experience with a £17 Silverline #7 plane that was concave and couldn't be adjusted. Whenever the adjustment nut was turned the yoke opened up and the blade stayed put. To say blade is a misnomer, it wouldn't cut butter even after a proper sharpening. I made a new yoke adjuster, flattened the sole and replaced the blade with a Stanley. For £17 plus £12 for a blade and many hours of fettling, I now have quite a good plane. The frog casting is extremely poor but it works after tuning. I later found a replacement yoke is £5 so I could have saved myself a day forging and welding, but it was a challenge and fun. If I ever feel the need I'll refinish the woodwork. I sure as hell will not be buying another Silverline plane. I'm retired so I can spend time sorting this out, a professional would not waste their precious time.
In my experience, a professional would not buy a tool with the lowest price tag but rather go with a reputable name and recommendations from other professionals.
As you stated, a professional's time is precious and even if they are cost conscious they would rather buy a more expensive tool that they know will work. A professional would also, most probably, know more about how the tool should work and what adjustments would be considered reasonable on a new.
On the other hand, the aspiring hobbyist would not know this and would probably despair or give up before the tool was in working order, if they at all would know what working order is supposed to be.
I think there is a spot in the market for a tool maker to make working tools at a reasonable price point. Tools which are maybe not as highly refined and polished as the best brands (you who they are) but works better than the rubbish sold as tools by the afore mentioned companies.
I would gladly spend a bit more of my money on something that I "knew" should work out of the box (after some set up and sharpening) than trying to buy from eBay (where prices has soared the last few years, and I'm never certain what I'll get) or spend hours and hours on fettling with a cheap, sub standard tool.
In my case I have a day job which pays the bills and then some and would like to make things in my spare time. I'm willing to do the work and put in the time to learn as in all cases when you are new to something but I'd rather do that with tools that are OK and spend my time learning wood working – not how to fix a poorly made tool.
BELIEVE what Paul said about the Draper. Shortly after his review I bought one of those wretched things. The adjusting screws were loose(too short and wrong thread), the cutting iron was upside down and when placed properly there wasn't room in the throat to adjust the it. I replaced the adjusting screws with longer stainless screws and cut the heads off. It took A LOT of filing to open the throat wide enough to allow room to adjust the cutting iron and shavings to pass through. It's 7mm wide as compared with 4mm on my Record. The tightening screw was unacceptable(too short), as shown in the photo in the blog, and was replaced with a decent one. The colors are nice, and other than those problems it's OK.(LOL)
Please understand that is not a criticism of Paul's recommendation. I value his counsel and advice with respect to tools, but he has no control over manufacturers who reduce the quality of their product.
Recently saw the latest spokeshave offering from Stanley in the local big box store . Packaging was nonexistent- they were all bundled in a plain cardboard box, which I don't have a problem with. The general finish wasn't great and the tolerances looked bad enough to not warrant further appraisal. They weren't terrible, it was the $50+ price tag that sealed the deal for me. They could have been finished to a much better standard for what was being asked. Given the comparative cost of an older and much better finished model second hand by the same company it is not all that tempting. I haven't found an old model that has needed that much work to get them working to an acceptable standard. I think the biggest irk is this scramble for cents to the detriment of the tool generally, seems a waste of resources and time producing a lot of this stuff in the first place.
With some honorable exceptions, I think that that adagio of "you get what you paid for" is the biggest true when it comes to tools. A good tool is not a cheap thing, normally. I'm talking about new tools, of course, not good tools bought second hand.
I've bought five Faithfull 36″ sash clamps a few days ago. As Paul says in his video about retrofitting clamps, they sound (and look, and feel) as cheap as they are. Cheap and bad made. The holding of the heads with two pins were so poor that they wobbled terribly, the jaws got stuck, the painted screw was almost impossible of moving smoothly. I've retrofitted them as Paul reccomends in his video, adding some things (I've changed the pins with screws with autoblocking nuts and stripped all the paint on the threaded rod, lubricating it with dry teflon after). Now they work acceptably well… just. The total amount for these five clamps has been 108 euro.
I'm pretty sure that a Juuma clamp, wich cost more than double a piece, doesn't present these problems. Yes, it's true: sometimes we cannot or we don't want to pay the money that a good tool costs, specially if it is destined to an amateur/ocassional use. Some things can be good enough for some types of use, but we must be clear that nobody gives a dollar for twenty cents.
I bought a Draper spokeshave at about the time of Mr Sellers's blog, managed to sharpen it and it works well -so far!
I think there will always be a potential for a cheap tool to be disappointing either because the quality control is not on the ball or as Mr Sellers indicates, the 'bean counters' have found a way of penny pinching to the overall detriment of the object concerned. This seems to happen with almost every article ever produced since time began. "Let the buyer beware" has been true since Roman times and is still true today.
A parting thought, the pack of four chisels I bought from Lidl ,for about £6, are great!
My son works for a company which Imports Commercial Equipment from China, They have to go over each piece of equipment as the quality varies from shipment to shipment. Some shipments have almost no problems and some require rebuilds on all pieces. Quality control is non-existent. My point is the next batch of these spokeshaves might be excellent. buyer beware.
This is true, quality control can be lacking from the producer, but also something that I as a consumer expect the importer to manage. They can inspect and refuse/return the bad ones and then sell the OK ones.
Given that the producer will not get paid for the sub par products they will start making improvements to meet the required standard as it it too expensive for them not to.
I once had a job where we bought paint brushes from a Chinese maker and the samples were excellent, the first delivery as well, but then quality started to decline. We had had the fore sight to keep a few of the samples and sent one of each size back to the producer along with the bad ones and told them that we would only pay for brushes where the quality matched the sample. Anything else would be sent back at their expense or thrown out(unpaid).
After some time of them not getting paid they started to send only acceptable products.
If the company bying from a producer and selling the products doesn't care about their good name they will only look at the price but we were very keen to only sell products we deemed good or excellent so we would rather not make the sale than sell a sub par product and this was something our customers were very understanding about.
I use older wooden spokeshaves of various sizes acquired over many years and, providing they are kept sharp, they are far superior to metal ones, in my opinion. I also have several Preston metal shaves that are OK.
The bad news is you're too late. I already bought one. The good news is that I bought it decades ago (presumably before the standard dropped even further). Even so, it is not a great… or even average… spokeshave.
I recently bought a Stanley that looks a surprising lot like this one, my first spoke shave.
As a beginning woodworker I am no authority on spokeshaves, but I noticed the sole had markings of 40 grit sandpaper as finish, so I ground that down to 240, making a much nicer surface. I also sharpened the chisel, reassembled the thing and no shavings were coming off, it just binds up on first contact.
It will come in handy if I ever have to climb a wooden pole, I guess…
Paul's video on making a wooden spokeshave is excellent. I made two and both work really well, so much so that I reach for them first and haven't used my Stanley spokeshave since. So easy to adjust too.
Bless you Mr. Paul Sellers for staying independent, you can say these things are good or bad without it dinging your bottom line or truly impacting your grocery shopping trip that week! This kind of stuff drives me bonkers, when a company saves a few pennies by down grading something that was already not such a premium item in the first place. The bigger tool companies have become giants within the last few years (and I will not mention names here) but they are all slowly becoming one big international chain and we may well be in trouble then as they could be the only maker and supplier – ugh!

Having spent her teenage years working on the family farm, Chef Trometter remembers the hard work and toil all farmers experience to produce quality crops. Pulling weeds, cutting hay and selling produce out of the family pick-up truck provided an education one cannot find in a book. The work was hard but enriching, both physically and spiritually.

Michael Foster was born at Huntingdon, the only son of Sir Michael Foster, K.C.B, F.R.S, by his first wife, Georgina, daughter of Cyrus Edmonds. He entered Trinity College, Cambridge, at the age of sixteen and graduated in natural sciences in 1884. He qualified from University College, London, in 1888, winning the Fellowes gold medal for clinical medicine and the gold medal for surgery, and completed his studies with visits to Vienna and to Geneva, where he took the Swiss Federal Diploma in 1891. Unable to settle in England owing to threatened pulmonary tuberculosis, which two long voyages to Australia failed to cure, he made brief stays at Alassio in Italy and Maloja in Switzerland and then began a seasonal practice, of which the winter months of each year were spent at San Remo and the summer months in England — in London during the first few years and thereafter at Harrogate. He enrolled in a Volunteer battalion of the Royal Fusiliers in his early career, and when war came in 1914 was given a posting to the 2nd Eastern General Hospital. In 1917 he was sent to the 55th General Hospital in France, and later he became consulting physician to the Forces in the rank of colonel, receiving the O.B.E. for his services.
Foster was an early advocate of the open-air treatment of tuberculosis and an authority on health resorts. With Sir Hermann Weber he wrote articles on these subjects in Hale-White's Textbook of Therapeutics and Allbutt and Rolleston's System of Medicine, and in 1933, two years after retiring, he published an account of the Baths and Medicinal Waters in Britain and Europe. Foster, in spite of many misfortunes, was a lovable, cheerful individual. He married, firstly, Charlotte, daughter of General R. Y. Shipley, C.B, by whom he had three sons and one daughter, and, secondly, Margaret Manning, widow of Hon. W. E. Russell, governor of Massachusetts. He died at Fincham, Norfolk.

The Archives of the Australian Jewish Historical Society Victoria
Our archival holdings are located in the Australian Manuscripts Section of the State Library of Victoria. They consist of 107 separate collections, all sorted and indexed over many years. At this date not all items in the archive have been fully processed by the SLV. Ultimately, all items in the archive will become available for public access, with some customary sensible restrictions. To search and use the archive, the first step to ring staff in the Manuscripts Section of the SLV on (03) 8664 7007 between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays.
The spectrum of the archive is huge and covers congregations, organisations and individuals, as well as places, personalities and events. The records include correspondence, minute books, films, periodicals, videotapes, audiotapes, images, microfiche and microfilm and CD-ROM. Alphabetically, the provenance of the records ranges from 'Arch Ellis'to 'YMHA:, and they truly cover almost the whole Victorian Jewish experience from the earliest days. The sheer size and complexity of this archive means, however, that the manuscript librarians at the SLV will need time to completely 'digest' the material so that it can be more easily accessed by students and scholars or even the simply curious.
It is the policy of this Society to welcome, and indeed encourage, all forms of bona-fide scholarship related to the material within our archives This policy will be facilitated by the helpful and insightful assistance of the manuscript librarians at SLV, the staff at JMA, and the volunteers at AJGS.

Grace started using her right arm and reaching out towards a hanging object while in her swing today. She is batting at objects with both arms! She was just starting to do this before all of this started. Part of the loss of this skill was most likely do to a set back from the seizures and the other from the medication she is on. Now if she would only smile.
Today we drop Grace's ACTH down to .25ml the original dosage we started her at. We are also going to decrease the clonzapam, as her head and body control are getting significantly worse, the clonzapam is a muscle relaxer so we are hoping that this help.
We went back to the pediatrician's office today, this time to meet with our regular pediatrician. We seemed to get things worked out and more of a straight answer as to what was going on with the diagnosis of Grace having thrush and then not having thrush. It was a relief to speak to Dr. Fornoff; we tried to assure him that we were not trying to be difficult it's just really tough when two doctors are angry at each other and we are getting thrown around between them. We just want the best care for her and we can't seem to do that when ego's get in the way. It's not like we enjoy spending half of our awake time in various doctor offices or hospitals.
Today we had Grace's Occupational Therapy. We are trying to develop the use of her right side, she greatly prefers her left side. We are working on things like rolling over and gripping objects. Grace was starting to grasp objects before all of this started but she has lost the ability. Right now at almost six months she she around the development of a two and a half month old. We have been working on things for the past few weeks. We started to see some significant changes in the last couple days she is starting to tract objects much better and grabbing a hold of light objects. She even rolled over today to her back, granted she was a little annoyed to be on her front so that probably helped.
We tried to feed Grace some rice cereal with a spoon, she did really well for our first attempt. We need to get her eating by a spoon because if the drug Keppra she is on does not work we will be switching to Topamax which comes in little sprinkles that we will need to feed her on top of applesauce or rice cereal.

On the Rocks: Boulderz Climbing Centre
I've recently been spending a lot of time around #LansdowneDupont, enjoying an activity known as bouldering, a unique type of rock-climbing sport. Defining this activity is rather tricky, as it shares a significant overlap with parkour, buildering, and treeclimbing. While everyone's idea of bouldering is undoubtedly different, it shares a common thread... or lack thereof, I should say—bouldering involves no ropes!
For obvious reasons, bouldering is generally limited to smaller climbs, and usually makes use of crash pads (thick mats placed below the routes). Bouldering can be done outdoors (in natural formations or man-made structures), or in rock climbing gyms. In this post, I'll be talking about a particular gym I've been hitting up in the west end of Toronto—Boulderz Climbing Centre.
Boulderz is a unique rock climbing gym because it focuses on bouldering as its main attraction. As soon as you enter the place, the first thing you notice is the odd shape of the walls. The place is full of interesting angles, including some nice caves and overhangs. The padded flooring is also well-implemented, and makes for safe landing—as important in bouldering as it is in regular climbing. The place has a really interesting and adventuresome feel to it, but also feels safe, comfortable, and really well thought-out.
The amount and variety of different holds (the things you can grab) is completely incredible. By the end of the day, you'll have held on to everything from alien faces to corn-on-the-cob. Routes are changed up weekly, so you're always faced with new challenges, and the climbs never get old!
Beyond being interesting from an aesthetic perspective, the astounding variety of holds forces you to use your hands in interesting ways, making use of all sorts of different techniques. Here are three very basic ones:
A jug is an easy hold, where the climber is able to use all of their fingers and forearm strength.
A crimp is a bit harder, relying mostly on the first joints of the fingers.
A pinch is even harder than that, and requires the climber to use the thumb and fingers to pinch the sides of a hold.
... and these are just the basics! The way you use your feet is equally as important, and has its own terminology, as does the way you transfer from one hold to the next!
Boulderz has routes for all ages and abilities, with features such as topout routes, a workout & stretching area, free-climbing, a mini-bouldering wall for kids, and even a climbing treadmill! All of the essentials are taken care of: water fountains, changerooms, washrooms, lockers, and so on are all available and well-maintained; snacks, drinks, and even some climbing equipment are available for purchase at their kiosk. On top of all of this, Boulderz hosts various programs, along with birthday parties, competitions, and private bookings.
Here it is! The climbing treadmill!
Everyone I've met here has been friendly and helpful, and the staff is fantastic! Their hours are great, and it's easy to get there—even the music is lively and has a tribal sort of groove that's perfect for climbing. Boulderz really is a great place to get a workout, and it's quite a bit more fun than mindlessly pumping iron at the gym. Maybe I'll see you there!
If you'd like to read more about why bouldering is a rock-solid activity, check out this article I wrote on the Top 10 Reasons to Go Bouldering!
Other goodies at #LansdowneDupont
Bouldering burns a lot of calories, and you're going to be pretty hungry by the time you're done. Luckily, Thai Lime (just across the street) offers some of the best Thai food in Toronto. The menu is great, and the meals come in big portions; if you feel like you've ordered way too much, eat it anyways— you can always digest by walking west along Dupont and linking up to the West Toronto RailPath, which I explore in this article.

See how a Loyola degree helped these graduates stand out, succeed
Recent college graduates face fierce competition for jobs and positions in graduate and professional schools. Here are three members of Loyola's Class of 2017 who definitely stand out from the crowd.
Melisa Blazevic
Major: Human resource management
New Job: Business delivery specialist at Aon Hewitt in Chicago
Talk a little about what you'll be doing.
I will be helping to deliver medical, 401(k), or pension benefits for clients. In addition, I will be developing relationships, tracking and improving upon operational metrics, engaging in client projects, and carrying out daily processes required to deliver services to clients.
How did Loyola prepare you for your job?
Loyola connected disciplines that I never thought could be connected in academics or the world of work. I feel that Loyola set me up for success not only through academics, but also contributed greatly to my personal development. I can proudly say, I would not be in the place that I am right now without my education from Loyola.
Any advice for seniors who will be graduating next year?
Enjoy every single minute of the time you have left because it goes by in the blink of an eye. Also, attend the Career Fair! You never know where your next big opportunity could come from. And always remember: You will forever be a Rambler.

Rumors about the alleged Samsung Galaxy F have bee circling the web for a while now, and recently, we got to see a glimpse of the device's aluminum frame and a couple of days ago, @evleaks posted another photo showing off the Galaxy F's front side.
The guys at GSMArena have an inside source that claims that the phone's removable back is made of plastic, but that the frame is identical to the latest iPhone's. In terms of specs, the Galaxy F is rumored to come with a 5.1in QHD Super AMOLED display, a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels and a quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor.
Other rumors include 3GB of RAM, 32GB of built-in storage plus a microSD card slot (up to 128GB). On the phone's back should be a 16-megapixel camera, and in the front, a 2-megapixel shooter. The smartphone is expected to run Android 4.4.2 KitKat. The Galaxy F should also share some of the Galaxy S5's features, such as the fingerprint sensor and the heart rate monitor.
Hopefully, we'll get the official details about this handset from Samsung soon enough.

Years ago as a Youth Pastor I remember we were packing the van to go to camp. Three days and two nights. Not a long trip. I couldn't help but observe that the girls tended to have bags that were about twice the size the bags the guys were bringing. When I pointed this out to the assembled group of High Schoolers, one of the girls pointed out that although it was true that the girls did have luggage bags bigger than the guys, she pointed to my bag and said, "but Noah… you have the biggest luggage bag". I'd love to deny it. But it was true. I always pack way more than I need for any trip, in fact more than likely I'll have the biggest luggage bag of anyone on a trip.
There is one exception to this rule though.
When I go on backcountry backpack trips. I take only the essentials. I learned the hard way on my first long backcountry trip. I about died because I insisted on taking extras of everything! More than once I considered leaving clothes and other articles behind because it became apparent how ridiculous it was for me to be hauling extras stuff around.
Some times life is like that too. We care way more than we need to. The solution for the backpack trip and life is the same. Because we can't carry it all we need to be wise about what we do choose to carry. See we have a choice as to what we pack into our packs and life. In fact it's good rule to leave extra room because you may have to help carry other's things to for a time.
That's what this new series is about. The Essentials. What are the few things that we need to focus on in life to be the whole people that God intended for us to be that we can't do without.
How about you? If you made a list of 5 essentials that everyone ought to keep the top priorities in life, what would they be? Love to hear you thoughts.

Preserving Communities Of Color Holds Conference in Houston
Style Magazine Newswire | 11/9/2018, 12:05 p.m.
Attendees at the three-day Preserving Communities of Color (PCOC) conference held in Houston over the weekend explored the social, institutional and economic changes that impact communities of color across the nation. Several panel discussions, workshops and keynote speakers allowed historians, architects, preservationists, students and the general public to gather insights on how to revitalize underserved, historic communities of color while ensuring longtime community members don't end up priced out according to the Houston Chronicle. The conference held in Houston's historic Third Ward allowed for a greater conversation to be had about recommendations from the 2017 conference and plans to implement unified goals.

When you travel, it's the people that make a place special. Tibet is no exception. We found the culture, traditional clothing and devotion to religion fascinating. Of all the places we have been to around the world, it was the Tibetan people who touched us the most. The language barrier prevented us from talking with the majority of them, but that didn't stop the communication. As we visited areas of Lhasa, particularly around the Johkang we were continuously smiled at.
We especially fell in love with the elderly Tibetans. Through their wrinkled and weathered faces you can see they still have a twinkle in their eyes. On a few occasions an elderly lady would reach out to touch our arm. We're not sure why. No gesture of wanting anything was made, they just gently held our arm and looked at us with a big smile. Perhaps it was their way of welcoming us, or just curiosity. The Tibetans are very superstitious, maybe they thought that touching us would somehow bring them good luck.

Taking Your Little Girl To KCMO?
You will find endless opportunities for fun and learning geared towards children when you visit Kansas City, Missouri. Whether you are taking your little girl to the many museums and historic destinations in the downtown area, or exploring the other attractions in nearby towns and suburbs, you and your daughter will have plenty of fun memories and lessons to take with you as you visit Kansas City. Here are some ideas on where to go and what to bring when you travel to the city:
- For animal lovers, Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead is a must. This is a large farm with a nature trail and a feeding/petting area for goats. You can explore the beautiful butterfly garden or go fishing in the pond. Your young girl will enjoy the farm setting and the trails, as well as pony rides or horsedrawn wagons, but make sure to bring lots of water for hydration. Admission is free.
- Artistic kids will enjoy Kaleidoscope. This facility is located at the Crown Center, and was the idea of Don Hall of Hallmark Cards. At Kaleidoscope, your little girl will be able to use Hallmark materials to create paintings, scuptures, and other arts and crafts. Independent and family sessions are available. You can also bring some arts and crafts supplies of your own. Tickets to the Kaleidoscope are free.
- Money Museum for your young entrepreneur.Does your little girl have the makings of a successful entrepreneur or business woman? Set her on the right path by taking her to the Federal Reserve's Money Museum. She will enjoy watching how money is made, and seeing the massive collection of coins at the Money Museum. Click here to learn more about the Money Museum exhibits.
- Cave Spring Historic Site and Nature Center. Downtown Kansas City is home to the 36-acre Cave Spring Historic Site and Nature Center. Your daughter will especially enjoy the exploration cave and the habitat pond. When you are at Cave Spring, you won't feel like you are in downtown at all. The wildlife and plant life along the walking trails will make you feel like you are elsewhere in Missouri's natural scenic spots.
- Kansas City Northern Railroad for train lovers.Kids love train rides, and the miniature trains of Kansas City Northern Railroad will be a treat for your little girl. The train is free and open most weekends, and your girl can bring her favorite American Girl doll along for the ride (grab some American Girl coupons here if you are planning to buy dolls or accessories). If you are a train enthusiast, you would love to get the chance to see all the railroads operating in Kansas, they are all listed here.
- The ultimate playroom: Wonderscope.The Wonderscope facility is at the Children's Museum in Kansas City. Here, children can play, imagine, and explore to their heart's content. Activities include golfing, gardening, and play areas for banking, grocery shopping, schoolteaching, and more. All your daughter will need to bring is her imagination and loads of energy.
- Bring your skates to the Crown Center. Kansas City residents wait every year for the Christmas tree lighting and ice skating rink at the Crown Center. Lace up your ice skates (or you can rent a pair for your little girl) and skate while enjoying the Christmas atmosphere at the Center. If you find yourself at Kansas City on Thanksgiving night, you and your daughter will love the Christmas lighting ceremony at the Country Club Plaza also.
