It's obvious that some locations in our country are in monetary chaos. The constant media frenzy has actually naturally caused individuals to have uncertainties about the property market. To learn more about buying or selling a home, please visit the website http://sellmyhousefastmissouricity.com
However, we have actually been exceptionally lucky in the Houston location and also specifically in Katy, in comparison to several various other areas in the country. Despite the fact that our market remains strong, several Houston location customers have actually begun to have ended up being hesitant to purchase. This is really an amazing time to purchase and is, in a feeling, a purchaser's market. Buyers currently recognize that they have more alternatives than ever, and also with the increase of brand-new building, they have pertained to anticipate an excellent bang for their dollar. Vendors required to be familiar with this way of thinking as well as must make adjustments in order to appeal to even more purchasers.
Purchasers are trying to find a GREAT DEAL.
Value, or the assumption of value most definitely aids sell a house. Think of the last time you went shopping. Did you discover something great that got on sale? Think of how great you really feel after you've racked up a good deal while out purchasing.
Purchasers want the very same point when it pertains to purchasing a home. They desire all the upgrades for a great rate, and if they need to jeopardize on upgrades or functions, they'll desire an even reduced rate.
Although that the Houston market is still going solid, sellers may wish to re-evaluate their expectations. There has actually been an apparent change in the direction of purchasers and vendors and their Realtors will have to work a little tougher because there are more homes on the market currently and also they are taking a little bit longer to sell.
So, a seller might ask, "Exactly how do I make my house stand out from the competition?"
In order to make an effect on the market as well as to record the ideal customers, sellers will require to take a couple of extra procedures in order to correctly position their residence on the marketplace.
The following pointers will assist you to draw in the best purchaser and will aid you to market your house more quickly.
1) Rate Your Residence PROPERLY
Let's face it, we're in a buyer's market. Customers are savvier currently than in the past and also they are fully conscious that houses are sitting on the market a little longer. They no longer really feel the necessity to buy that permeated the market simply a couple of years back. Bidding process battles are increasingly unusual, so pricing your house properly is KEY. Ultimately, it could possibly save you THOUSANDS of dollars in carrying costs. It is IMPERATIVE for sellers to be familiar with what is going on in their market. Vendors need to keep up today with what their competition is doing. I constantly established my vendors up in our Online Sellers Advantage program, which is special to Prudential Gary Greene, as nothing else real estate company in Houston has anything like it. Through this program, I maintain my sellers approximately day on what is taking place around the market.
You'll discover how many homes are up for sale around you and also how much they're asking, you'll obtain daily reports of customer activity in your location, as well as will know exactly how many professional customers are searching for a house much like yours.
In order for your residence to market swiftly, you will certainly need to value it properly for the market. It has been confirmed time and time again that houses valued over the market take a lot longer to market, and in the end, the vendor usually has to decrease the rate as well as has actually needed to cover the included expense of carrying expenses.
2) One Word: STAGING!
As a Certified Home Marketing Specialist, I recognize that buying a house is usually a very psychological experience. In order to attract the best buyers for a home, we need to enable them to picture themselves living in it. Picture your house as a flick set as well as thoroughly think about the feelings you would want a buyer to really feel upon seeing your residence for the very first time. Will, certainly they think "This is so cluttered. I do not believe every one of my points will certainly fit in this house." or "What a magnificent location to amuse!"? Did you understand that you can control 75% of a purchaser's first impression of your residence? Uninhabited houses take longer to sell, so it is equally vital to organize an empty residence. You can do so using items you currently possess. Residence hosting actually sets you back extremely little, as well as in the long run, enhances profits by a large amount.
House hosting assists you to sell your home quicker as well as for even more cash. In fact, the studies reveal that vendors that have organized their residences, usually ignore the closing table with 17% even more money as well as their homes takes 50% less time to offer.
3) Position Your Home on the marketplace Correctly
Residence Staging becomes part of positioning your residence to market, yet an additional key variable is understanding that your target buyer is. My reducing edge advertising strategy is made to achieve a target or particular niche marketing. Initially, we need to determine who would most likely be most thinking about your residence. Do you have a huge, 5 bedroom country residence with a swimming pool? You possibly will not interest a very first time purchaser, yet would be suitable for the family members seeking to put their kids in your school district.
Via the use of home hosting and also target advertising and marketing, we will devise a plan to draw in the sort of customer that would certainly be probably to fall for your residence and put in a deal.
4) Marketing Sells Homes
Customers have actually ended up being increasingly smart and 84% of them start their home search on the internet, also before contacting a realtor. A purchaser can establish whether they discover your home appealing without ever seeing it personally. Over 65% of customers find the house they end up acquiring either on the internet or via their Realtor.
Via my partnership with Prudential Gary Greene, I have the ability to provide my sellers an unparalleled internet existence. Our listings are featured on more websites than those of any type of other broker agents in Houston, bar none. This reality, along with a customized target marketing plan for your residence, leads to offering your home more quickly and for more loan.
5) Think Like a Buyer
Follow the tips to sell a home successfully like, Place yourself in the buyer's shoes and also check out your home with his/her eyes. What would certainly your first impression be? How would you really feel? What would you alter? Understanding the buyer's mindset is an important factor in the marketing procedure. If we understand the buyer's viewpoint, we are most likely to properly place our house for the market.

USSA JUNIOR RACING - FAQ's AND BASIC INFORMATION
This information sheet covers CXC Junior Cup Races and Junior Nationals. If you are an advanced racer and are interested in pursuing 2020 U.S. Cross Country Championships, as well as potential selection to the US Ski Team World Junior and U18 Scandanavian Cup Teams, please contact Liz Peterson at firstname.lastname@example.com.
What is the USSA, and what are CXC Junior cup races, and Junior Nationals ("JNs")?
"USSA" stands for the United States Ski & Snowboard Association. It is the national governing body for skiing in the United States, and the parent organization of the US Ski Team. As part of the US Ski Team development pipeline, USSA sponsors Junior Nationals each year – a week-long competition in March with skiers from different regional teams. Each USSA region (Minnesota and Wisconsin are in the "Midwest" division) holds Junior National Qualifer races (CXC Junior Cup) to determine selections to their respective teams.
Do I have to be a top skier to participate in Junior cups?
No! Most Junior Cups are part of larger race events and not limited to "top skiers." Even if you do not feel fast enough to qualify for Junior Nationals this year, the experience of racing Junior Cups will help you become a better ski racer!
Why should I try to qualify for Junior Nationals?
Junior National results are the primary tool used by college ski coaches to evaluate prospective college recruits. Most importantly, Junior Cup weekends are a lot of fun, a great way to ski different venues in the region, and an opportunity to meet other junior skiers outside your high school team.
How does Junior National qualifying work?
Here in the Midwest Region, the Central Cross-Country Ski Association (CXC) administers the JN qualification process. In general, skiers earn points based on Junior Cup results. The Junior National Team consists of approximately equal numbers of skiers from each age group based on results from the four Junior Cup weekends.
How can Endurance United help?
We provide coaching, waxing, and logistical support at Junior Cup races.
When and where are the Junior National Qualifiers this season?
Dates and sites will be released summer 2019. Typically two events in December, one in January and one the weekend after MN State Nordic Championship.
How do I sign up?
If you are new to Junior Cups, please email Liz Peterson (email@example.com) to discuss your goals, and decide which Junior Cup weekends will be best for you. Then, Junior Cup sign-up for everybody is as follows:
Click HERE to sign up with EU for all four or selected Junior Cup weekends. The fee will cover all your waxing and coaching for the weekend.
You must be a CXC "Competitive Member" ($40 annual fee) to earn points at Junior Cup races, counting toward this year's Midwest JN Team selection. Click HERE for the CXC membership page.
Consider a USSA membership. If you qualify for the Midwest Team, and plan to attend Junior Nationals, you will need a USSA license. Early and annual USSA membership allows advantageous accumulation of USSA points. Lower USSA points based on improving results will give you better starting spots in Junior Cup and JN races (especially helpful in mass start races). USSA points are cumulative throughout an athlete's entire ski career. In addition to JN results, college coaches do look at accumulated USSA points when evaluating prospective recruits. Click HERE to purchase a USSA license. You can purchase a CXC/NRL Competitor license (on the same page as the standard CXC registration page) at the same time, giving you the benefits of both CXC and USSA licensure in one step instead of two.
Sign up for each Junior Cup race at the web-site of the ski club hosting each Junior Cup weekend. You must individually sign yourself up for each race in which you want to ski (this is not part of the Endurance United coach/wax support fee). NOTE: DO NOT sign up for any race that says "high school." These races are for the high school racers in that area, they are not Junior Cup races. Make sure anything you sign up for says Junior Cup, USSA, or something of that nature.
For out-of-town Junior Cups, how do I get there and where do I stay?
Athletes either travel and lodge with their parents, or arrange to travel with another athlete's family. On the Endurance United Junior Racing page you will find links to an online document for each weekend with logistical information (e.g., where to drop your skis for waxing) and shared information such as where other families are lodging, how they are getting there, etc. You are also welcome to contact the EU junior coaches for assistance in coordination with other families and athletes.

The Spectra UL633N is the first construction grade laser that offers full automatic control of the X, Y, Z axes. With a working range up to 2,600 feet, this rotary laser provides precise automatic axis alignment, PlaneLok, and grade matching capabilities. It also includes a laser receiver, wireless remote display, and monitoring of slope measurements. With a self-leveling accuracy of 1/16th inch and fully automatic to ±25% grade on all X, Y, and Z axes, the versatile UL633N is suitable for both simple and complex grade and concrete work. This Spectra laser facilitates control of the Z axis via automatic detection of the plumb beam, while control of the X and Y axis utilizes a dual radio connection. The UL633 can also be mounted on a 5/8-11 tripod in a vertical or horizontal position.
The Spectra UL633N is also the first laser where the plumb beam can be changed into a rotating fan beam which can be detected by the SF601 Spot Finder. The laser can align the plumb beam automatically to the Spot Finder for pipe laying and trench applications. The combination also offers additional versatility for 90-degree layout applications on concrete pads as well as indoors for drywall. Measuring a grade value through an existing pipe or an open trench can also be done quickly and easily in automatic Spot Match mode. Activating the SpotLok mode ensures the UL633N locks and holds the plumb beam automatically to the Spot Finder at the desired direction or elevation point offering a precise alignment to avoid rework.
Since the UL633N can work with two HL760 laser detectors simultaneously, contractors can measure an unknown grade value automatically between two elevation points in Grade Match mode. This grade laser can also provide precise automatic axes alignments to two desired points without positioning the two HL760 laser detectors 90 degrees perpendicular. This allows construction professionals to easily perform dual axis alignments for applications such as grade work on sports fields, parking lots, tennis courts, and driveways.
The Spectra UL633N incorporates automatic temperature and grade compensation for high accuracy in any weather or geographical location. Mask mode eliminates interference and allows the use of multiple lasers on site, while electronic leveling vibration filter reduces vibrations typically experienced on tall tripods, in high winds or on high vibration job sites. This laser level also includes a combined radio and infrared RC603 remote control with a built-in backlit, graphic display that allows you to control the laser up to 330 feet away. With an IP67 rating, the UL633N is sealed from moisture and dust and is built to survive a drop of up to three feet high on concrete. This dual grade slope laser works up to 35 hours using rechargeable NiMH batteries and approximately 40 hours using alkaline batteries.
Automatic Axis Alignment provides the benefit of simultaneously aligning two axes at 90 degrees to each other.

Things got real on a national stage during Thursday night's showdown between the Chicago Bulls and Oklahoma City Thunder. For 48 minutes the Bulls gave the Thunder a competitive game, but in the end OKC's 97-91 victory came down to their endurance and reliable closers. Let's just say Kevin Durant was Mr. Clutch.
Despite a loss, the Bulls proved they could hang with the big dogs of the NBA even while Derrick Rose rehabs his knee. However, they need to determine which player will become their "go to man" in do or die situations. It was a high intensity game, but niether team executed a flawless performance as there were a combined 43 turnovers committed – can we clean up the sloppy mess, por favor?

A Quick Story of Going Back For a Quick Visit
Wow!!!!! What a crazy week!!! Some days seemed to have flown by while others were a bit stagnate!!!! And this weekend seems it is going to be just as nutty!!!!
I have seemed to improve a bit in my drawing class and I am looking forward to a photo series I have cooking up in my head!!!
But today I want to tell you about an interesting experience I had yesterday.... As I continue my transition from JPO to college student I was invited back to the Juvenile Probation Office for the staff meeting this week honoring a special moment for one of the co-workers. Now, 'co-worker' is a bit of an understatement. We were celebrating S!!! S, is getting married this weekend and she has become a sister to me. We met at the probation department and our friendship just could not come to an end after I made my exit. So, earlier this week I was asked to attend the weekly staff meeting. I was able to make arrangements to be a bit late for class to attend. As I made my drive to the office, late as usual, I had such a strange feeling come over me. There have been many times in my life that I have left; I have left schools, towns, jobs, people and typically I do not make my way back. I have left a time in my life that has been encased in that particular town or group of people, and I usually feel too anxious to go back and re-experience it. Typically due to my continued self-conscious issues :). So, I am making my drive back cursing at my radio because it continued to go off, and I began thinking about my caseload and thinking about things I need to be doing.....this typically happened when I was on my way to work. I was lucky to have a drive so I could prepare for the day ahead. Once I came into the building, my hands full of something that smelt tasty that C, (another 'co-worker/sister') had me lug in once I met her in the parking lot. I found myself checking the board, to ensure I was now marked in and then I felt I should check my box......both something I did everyday while I was still employed there. Then, I realized I was no longer there to work......I came in to Ms. Bev's squeal of excitement to see me (she has been there for over 30 years). I wish I can just put her in my pocket and take her out when I need someone to be excited!!!! Her love is so immense!! I made my way through the hall and finally made it to the kitchen where all had gathered. Oh the excitement and the wonder in everyone's eyes was overwhelming. After all the hugs and niceties it really felt like just another day at the office. Instead of discussing issues with my caseload, I was discussing school and life as a student and homeowner. The time came and C ushered us into the conference room to begin the weekly meeting. I took over my old spot and just sat in amazement. It felt as if I never left. Once S was given her gift and we all chatted it up a bit and listened to S conquering her nerves about the preceding week and the upcoming nuptials, they continued on with the meeting. I and another guest decided it was time to go. After hugs and 'great seeing yous' were exchanged I made my exit once again. Such a strange home like feeling came over me. These people have experienced with me some great and not so great times in the past four years. This was truly a family that was created around me. They continue to live on, doing tough work with teenagers and their families. And I have moved on knowing that I did what I was supposed to in the time I had there. On the drive back, I felt my body decompress, as it did every day after work. My mind attempting to leave the issues that I had not resolved behind waiting to be picked up on the way in the next morning.
Every day I wonder if I have made the proper choice, and today I know that I have. I have welcoming faces to come back to in my JPO family, but there are encouraging faces too. Encouraging me to go out there and take on my next adventure. Oh my, I am so grateful!!!


text: When my mother passed away I was only 19 years old. From that day forward I thought that everything I loved died….in fact, I said it over and over until everything I loved… died. I buried my father 5 years later, then my cat, then my grandma, the list goes on and on confirming in my head that everything I loved died. It became my mantra. As ridiculous of a mantra it was, it was my reality. I found myself afraid to love. I built walls around my heart out of protection for the people I tried not to love. It only made my heart harder, sadder and lonelier. I came to a place in my life that something had to change, mainly….my mindset. I needed a new mantra…..So what did I do? I reached out for help. I realized I couldn't drag myself out of my negativity alone. It was the hardest thing for me to do, but it turned out to be the BEST thing I ever did, and it changed my life. Your mindset is your reality, no matter how how ridiculous or fantastic it is. I changed my mindset: I changed my mantra, and you can change yours! Because it's OK to ask for help! We were put on this earth to help each other…..you just need to reach out and ASK for help. It's always the hardest part, the rest is all down hill. Hit me up, I can help!

Warning of baby Chance's mother's drug use ignored by DCF
An eerie phone call from the day after Chance was born shares a chilling warning that could have prevented the baby's death. ABC7 heard the anonymous tip to Florida's Department of Children and Families that Chance's mother, Kristin Bury, was using drugs.
DCF said it was dismissed. That complaint, some say, could have saved Chance's life.
Chance was just six-weeks-old when he was killed in his North Port home. His parents, Kristen Bury and Joseph Walsh, are charged in his death.
The entire phone call with the warning about Bury's drug use is almost 20 minutes long. It's chilling at times, as the caller repeatedly said she just had to let someone know before something bad happened to baby Chance.
"It's kind of a long story, but I couldn't not call and have something happen," said the caller. "She is like a known drug user. Everybody in town knows this."
A potentially life-saving phone call was ignored.
For 18 minutes, the anonymous caller told DCF all about Bury's drug use describing her as a known addict who abused opiates. The caller even mentioning Bury's previous baby, Duane, who died just one year prior.
"Now this girl is pregnant again and just gave birth two days ago, or a day ago, at the Charlotte County Hospital. And she's still on drugs. I'm just worried that they're going to send the baby home and not know, and the baby's going to withdrawal and pass away," said the caller.
"Well I mean, if she's at the hospital, they'e going to test her urine and the baby's as well," said the DCF worker who answered the phone call.
The caller even claimed Bury went to that particular hospital because she knew her drugs would not be detected there. But still, the call was ignored.
"Based on the information that you've provided to me, we don't have enough factual proof," said the DCF worker on the phone call.
In an effort to change that, the state-run agency has implemented new rules.
In a statement sent to ABC7, a spokesperson said anytime the reporter or department gets knowledge of a previous child death in the same family, the call will now automatically be escalated.
While previous neighbors of Bury applaud the move by the DCF, they said much more needs to be done to ensure Chance's case isn't repeated.
"Well, they need to do something," said Roland McDonald of North Port. "I guess it's a start. They're going in the right direction anyway."
ABC7 spoke to Chance's grandmother, Sally Susino, who said she agrees with McDonald and thinks this change is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of what needs to happen.
This all comes on the same day several friends of the family announced they are collecting money in hopes of turning the field where Chance was found into a permanent memorial.

Hero Makers Dream Big & Start Small
You never know when a hero making leader will walk through your door. And when they do – listen and learn.
I vividly remember the day I looked at my schedule and saw that I had an appointment with a guy named Sam Stephens. Not knowing who he was, I asked my assistant Pat why I had this meeting and who this guy was.
"I thought you knew him," she said. "All I know is that he is from India."
I went into the meeting not knowing anything about Sam, wondering if this would be a waste of my time. I greeted him, extended my hand, and asked him to tell me his story. Sam started back in the 1950s, with a story about his father. Sam's father had started a mission to plant churches in India and by 1992 they had experienced some growth. They now had 200 churches, and all could be traced to that first church planted by Sam's dad. Wow, I thought. 200 churches! Sam had my attention now.
Sam wasn't comfortable talking about his own work—he's very humble. So I had to drag the details out of him. He told me that in 1992 he had taken over the mission and he made a simple, but strategic shift in the way they did things. He began to insist that every church planter not only plant a church but also have an apprentice church planter. This was someone who would come alongside the planter and would learn from him, firsthand, how to plant a church so the reproduction would continue, year after year.
Now I was really curious. "How is that going?" I asked.
Without much expression, Sam replied, "Well, we now have…70,000 churches."
At that point, I was glad that I was sitting down. I was beginning to realize that this was an incredible story. I asked Sam, "How many people does that represent?" And again, his reply took my breath away: "I think about 3.5 million," he said. Then he added, "But we are praying for 100,000 churches and 5 million people!"
At that, I began to wonder: how did this kind of exponential multiplication happen?
The simple shift Sam had made back in 1992 had transformed the results of their church-planting efforts. Sam had discovered that there were people and leaders all over India who had gifts, and he found that if he could empower them, encourage them, and make them successful, then Jesus' mission would be accomplished at a completely different level of productivity. Sam apprenticed leaders who in turn apprenticed other leaders who in turn did the same for many others.
As I thought about this amazing encounter with Sam Stephens and being a hero maker, I had three leadership learnings:
Hero Makers multiply their leadership.
Sam Stephens is a hero maker. Jesus was also a hero maker in his life and leadership. In John 14:12 Jesus promises his closest followers, "You will do greater things than me" and saw them as the heroes of this movement of redemption he was starting. Sam, too was not trying to make himself the hero in the story of his mission; he focused all his energy and efforts on making heroes of the other emerging leaders around him.
Hero makers dream big.
Sam has one of the biggest dreams for the cause of Christ that I know of! In the same way that Jesus challenged us to a very big dream in Acts 1:8, Sam dreamed of reaching 5 million people and starting 100,000 churches! It is dreaming big that catalyzes multiplication thinking in the mind of a hero maker.
Hero makers start small.
While Sam has a big dream, his efforts were focused on multiplying one apprentice church planter at a time. In the same way that Jesus spent 73% of his time with a few disciples and only 27% with the masses; Sam made sure he invested his efforts on a small number of emerging leaders who would multiply his efforts.
This devotional originally appeared in Dave Ferguson's book, Hero Maker. Hero Make is available for purchase here.

What can you say about a group that epitomizes what has become known as The Minneapolis Sound, a band whose influence has permeated the entire width and breadth of popular music since their major label debut on this day in 1981? You say congrats and more importantly you say thank you! There is a musical tree full of branches that emanate from The Time and go in many, many directions. There is an influence of style and showmanship that is undeniably and unapologetically yesss!!!
So what I would like for you to try and do for a moment while you may be perusing this post is to imagine what music sounded like before July 29, 1981 and then after you get into that space check out the cut below and then bring your thoughts up to 2011 and think of the incredible journey of music that is The Time's legacy. Here's to another 30!!!
Make sure to keep up with The Time on twitter we had a great time the other night with them in the twitterverse.
Ivan Orr is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, performer, and writer. A native of Charlottesville, Virginia Ivan was involved with the forming and nascent days of The Music Resource Center as its first Program Director.

One of the hardest things to decide on was the flooring. Wood flooring is definitely in and I love the look. However, there are so many types of wood-like floorings. So much to choose from...Hardwood.... Bamboo...Laminate Wood...Engineered...Tile...Linoleum...Vinyl.
While many of these look like wood, some are darker or lighter than others. As well as some are more durable. I had ruled out laminate wood flooring because this wood flooring separates if liquids sit for any length of time on it. I seen flooring buckling in front of a refrigerator and sinks. Since we have an older dog, I was also concerned about her scratching the floor as well as accidents.
Then there was hardwood flooring. Hardwood flooring is more costly but can be refinished and doesn't delaminate. And then there is engineered hardwood flooring, a better quality composite wood flooring that is supposed to hold up better to everyday living, pets and children, when compared to pergo or other less expensive laminates.
Keeping the trends in mind, I finally narrowed it down to a ceramic tile that looked like wood. With a pet, I finally decided that this would be most practical. Tile is easier to clean and maintain. When we went to choose the tile, I was pleasantly surprised by the selection of tiles available that looked like wood. They even came in 6"X36" planks. So I had the best of both worlds.
However, even with tile, you must clean up the spills. With prolonged leaks, water can seep into small cracks and breakdown the bond. I have seen older tiles lift as a result of water leaks.
Flooring decisions can be challenging, so do your homework. Visit the HGTV website to get an idea of the different kinds of flooring. Consider all the options before making a decision.

Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 97
Chapter 97: The Snowy South Edict (3)
Translator: Kelaude Editor: Milkbiscuit
In the Mount Calming Sea Grand Assembly Hall, nothing major occurred. Once the Orbs of Will
and the coins had all been collected, Qin Weiwei ordered each domain's Cave Masters to lead
two other subordinates and follow her to deliver the items to South Edict Manor.
The Orbs of Will of a whole mountain was no small sum, naturally Qin Weiwei had to be careful.
Every Cave Master obeyed the order; after exiting the Grand Hall, Miao Yi picked Zheng Jinlong
and Wang Zifa to follow with, and commanded the rest to go ahead and return to East Arrival
Even though there were only three of them left, Cave Master Miao was still everyone's focal
point. There was no reason apart from all of East Arrival Cave's robes being of a unified black
color, whereas the other School of Blue Jade disciples in the other caves still wore their blue
robes, so East Arrival Cave was extremely eye-catching.
After leaving the Grand Hall and mounting their steeds, both Qin Weiwei and Lu Liu couldn't
resist taking another look; it was more sickening the more they looked, no matter how they saw
him, they felt that this Grand Cave Master Miao was such an eyesore.
Because even amongst the men that Qin Weiwei personally led, the School of Blue Jade disciples
were still wearing their blue robes, making Qin Weiwei feel as though she was being slapped in
the face. She gnashed her teeth with hatred at this, as she realised that this bastard had his
mind set to make her look terrible on purpose!
For this guy, sometimes excelling too much was not necessarily a good thing.
Qin Weiwei had reprimanded the respective Cave Masters on this matter before, now that Miao
Yi was doing something that stood out this much, they all felt very resentful, and cursed to
themselves, 'You brat. Thinking you're so capable, are you?'
Miao Yi had also discovered the hostile gazes towards him, but he couldn't figure out where the
problem was, 'How did I upset all of you?'
This was not the time to banter on other matters, official business was at hand, Qin Weiwei
looked at the hideously plump Charcoal beneath Miao Yi, she knew that the thing had speedy
legs, so she waved her hand and pointed, ''Miao Yi, lead your team and open a path in front, if
you discover anything amiss, report back immediately!''
''Yes!'' Miao Yi cupped his fists and answered, turning Charcoal around, and waved his hand,
ordering Zheng Jinlong and Wang Zifa to proceed ahead.
A thunderous galloping noise resounded as Qin Weiwei rode with her steed in the lead, and
thirty others riding behind her like the wind....
The rain had stopped; the skies turned clear, and were without a cloud for a thousand li;
numerous mountains populated the land, boundless and undulating. As the sun kissed the
snow-covered land, it was truly a spectacle to behold.
Someone immediately dashed out of the South Edict Manor mountain gates, pushing his palm
forwards and shouting for the visitors to slow down and stop.
One after another, three dragon steeds abruptly raised their forelegs, their back hooves drawing
deep grooves in the ground, as they hastily came to a stop in front of the mountain gates.
Steadying his steed, Miao Yi stared at the person stopping them, it was none other than the one
whom he had dealt with before, Zhou Liqin.
Qian Zifeng flashed out from the side, and cupped his fists towards Miao Yi, ''So it was Cave
Master Miao.''
Miao Yi shook open his cloak and jumped down his dragon steed, laughing heartily as he
walked towards the both of them. Then cupped his fists and said, ''So it was actually Brother
Zhou and Brother Qian, I have wanted to have a small chat with the both of you; I didn't think it
would just so happen that the two you were on duty.''
Both sides exchanged courtesies for a while, before the sounds of galloping horses boomed not
too far away, and a few dozen steeds dashed forwards; evidently, it was Qin Weiwei leading the
troops forth.
Since they were already informed by Miao Yi, Zhou Liqin and Qian Zifeng extended their arms
and allowed passage. Qin Weiwei only threw Miao Yi a glance before leading the others and
charging directly through the mountain gates.
Soon, another wave of thunderous gallops could vaguely be heard from afar.
Qian Zifeng could only cup his fists and apologise to Miao Yi, ''Cave Master Miao, the two of us
are on duty today. Recently it's the time for the each respective Mountain Chieftain to pass over
their shipments, I am afraid that we will not be able to chat with you for long....''
''Understood!'' Miao Yi waved his hands and stopped him, then took two coin purses out from
his storage ring and stuffed it in both of their hands, whispering, ''A little token of
Zheng Jinlong and Wang Zifa, who had been sitting on their dragon steeds, couldn't help but
share a glance and grumble in their hearts; an esteemed Cave Master had to lower himself to
present gifts to two gate sentries? People with low cultivation really had no self-confidence....
After a few courteous words, Miao Yi was just about to mount his steed when from a distance,
the group that were charging this way all came to an orderly stop in front of the mountain
gates, after a wave of the hand by the person leading; it was Mount Shaotai's Mountain
''Old Brother Miao!'' Xiong Xiao chuckled as he greeted him.
Miao Yi felt his heart stop for a bit, then swept his gaze past the two handmaidens behind Xiong
Xiao, and saw the two of them staring straight at him, but he didn't know which one was Head
Guard Huang's daughter.
However, his gaze didn't stop on the two handmaidens as he was afraid they might notice
something was amiss. He cupped his fists as he greeted Xiong Xiao, ''Miao Yi, respectfully
greets the Mountain Chieftain of Mount Shaotai!''
Xiong Xiao had also been paying attention to his reaction. He had begun to have suspicions on
Miao Yi after the incident at the Mystic Arts Temple, not because of Mo Shengtu's and Zhang
Shucheng's deaths, but because Miao Yi had simply taken his steed from Changfeng Cave and
left without a word after the incident; so he suspected that Miao Yi knew something.
Especially with City Lord Huang's death afterwards, Chun Xue initially suspected that it had
been Miao Yi who did it, because the two incidents had occurred at almost the same time.
Yet in the report from the City Lord's Manor, City Lord Huang was supposedly killed by two
handsome young men. Even though appearance-wise Miao Yi was somewhat gallant, there was
hardly any correlation to handsome; in addition, the figures depicted were also not quite the
same, and furthermore the City Lord's wife had also been beaten. The assailant had even left a
few strange words, so the suspicion was off of Miao Yi.
Most importantly, other hidden aspects had come into play after the incident, and Xiong Xiao
had not dared to investigate further.
Xiong Xiao could not see anything amiss from Miao Yi's expression, so he just waved his hand
and laughed, ''Old Brother is too kind, I was just about to head over to see Manor Head for the
handover, let us further deepen our relationship after I return.''
''Yes!'' Miao Yi cupped his fists and replied.
Xiong Xiao smiled and nodded his head, then lead his troops into the mountain gates.
To the side, Qian Zifeng and the rest thought highly of Miao Yi. Xiong Xiao could one day
succeed Manor Head Yang Qing to become the Mountain Chieftain of Mount Shaotai, so he was
naturally looked upon highly by Manor Head Yang Qing. Such a person had actually called Miao
Yi 'Old Brother'; it seemed this Cave Master Miao had some good connections within South
Edict Manor.
Zheng Jinlong and Wang Zifa casted a meaningful gaze at each other.
''Brother Qian, do either of you know where Mountain Chieftain Xiong's two handmaidens are
from, and what their original names were?'' Miao Yi turned his head and asked.
''Mountain Chieftain Xiong was originally in charge of Changfeng Cave, so the two
handmaidens should be from Changfeng City; Elder Auntie Chun Xue should be surnamed
Huang, but as for her full name I have no idea. With regards to the other Little Auntie, I know
even less; normally, those that have been selected as handmaidens would have changed their
names, and as with something that has happened so long ago, not many would know if they
weren't from Changfeng Cave.'' Qian Zifeng replied. Then he got curious and asked, ''Cave
Master Miao, what did you ask this for?''
Miao Yi dodged the question, ''Then how do you know Elder Auntie Chun Xue is surnamed
To the side Zhou Liqin sighed, then lowered his voice and said, ''Cave Master Miao hasn't heard
the story before? Earlier this year, something major happened in Changfeng City, it was all over
the place, even the Manor Head was taken aback; two people had snuck into the City Lord's
Manor at Changfeng City, and killed City Lord Huang. This City Lord Huang was none other
than Chun Xue's father; it was because of this incident, that we came to know Chun Xue was
surnamed Huang.''
''Uh...,'' Miao Yi was shocked. ''Two of them snuck in and killed... so audacious?''
He was at a lost for words. It had been done by him alone, and no one had seen it too! So how
did it become an act committed by two people?

I like this lady. First saw her grabbing the mic at Remedy Live grabbing the Mic during Ed Sheeran's MC session as the only female MC working the stage and the crowd. Then i got to see her do her thing first hand at A Writer's Block event and was taken back by her passion and energy whilst performing her pieces. She entertains and engages her audience with her thought provoking and amusing pieces. This video gives you a little taste of that but you really need to see it in the flesh to see what this lady is all about.

A Boston-based yogi, physiologist, and movement scholar. Jessica strives to educate her students about the many languages of the body, as well as equip them with tools to develop a deeper connection with their internal world.
Prior to teaching yoga, Jessica trained as a physiologist and holds a bachelors degree in Biochemistry with minor in Sports Medicine and two Masters of Science degrees in Exercise Physiology and Human Physiology. She has conducted research on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, the physiological effects of several types of sports and training programs, and has published research on yoga and how the practice affects our physiology. She also acts as a reviewer for scientific literature. and has worked with a psychiatrist, helping to grow and administer a new therapy program for patients suffering from depression, anxiety, and other psychiatric illnesses. Jessica maintains a blog, PhysiologyofYoga.com, which focuses on different elements of physiology and how they relate to the yoga practice.
Jessica has also been an athlete her entire life. She started swimming at age seven, trained with a national team at the US Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs during high school, and went on to swim for a NCAA Division I team in college. During this time, she was able to learn from some of the top trainers and nutritionists in the country. Training at this high intensity for over a decade provided her with a complementary, experiential education, which allowed her to begin drawing connections between her academic and athletic backgrounds.
However, it was not until Jessica took up a consistent yoga practice in college that she truly began to see the deep, interconnected nature of her physical and academic training . From the moment she stepped into her first class, she knew she had finally landed and discovered a guide for the rest of her life. Jess found herself repeatedly making physical and mental connections with what she was learning in the academic realm to things that would surface during her practice. These connections solidified her belief in the power that yoga can have on our lives. Therefore, she has developed a passion for raising awareness and understanding of how our bodies and minds can benefit from yoga and the yogic lifestyle.
Inspired by how yoga affected her own life, Jess completed 200 hour and 500 hour trainings with Boston Yoga School, directed by Ame Wren, Kevin Courtney, and Brenna Matthews, and is also certified to teach children's yoga. She is grateful for the guidance her teachers provide and finds inspiration from Iyengar, Ashtanga, and Katonah yoga. Jess is currently studying Iyengar yoga with Patricia Walden, Carrie Owerko, Nikki Costello, and Lara Warren and continues to play the role of both student and teacher as she travels for workshops and trainings with senior teachers around the country.
In her classes, Jessica draws from her years of academic study and research, as well as her personal yoga experiences, to create a safe and nurturing environment where students can explore and develop a deeper inner awareness. Jessica's classes are a reflection of how she approaches her practice: deliberate, but not too serious. Jess believes yoga is a framework to discover freedom in the body, mind, and spirit. As a movement enthusiast, she tends to explore postures in unique ways to shed light on our patters and tendencies. Jess strives to help her students listen to the different languages of the body and how to tap into this intuitive knowledge to respect the internal and external states in each moment.She believes that practicing with both devotion and curiosity helps develop a fresh, open sense of wonder, and a place to find freedom in a relaxed wakefulness.

Radar Investigation of NEAs
Steve Ostro* - Copyright Tumbling Stone 2001
|Go out and buy 10,000 100-watt
light bulbs and arrange them in 100 rows of 100 bulbs
each. Then plug them in and turn them on. The resulting
megawatt of radiated power is close to what the 305-meter
Telescope transmits in an asteroid radar experiment.
The 70-meter Goldstone
Antenna transmits half of that, but it can look at
the entire sky while Arecibo can point only within 20
degrees from zenith. These two complementary instruments,
which have obtained radar
echoes from dozens of NEAs, are remarkably sensitive:
the power that they can detect is less than what is
expended by an ant that climbs up the wall of your room
in a time longer than the age of the universe.
When we do an asteroid radar experiment,
we measure the time it takes the echo to return with a
resolution as fine as a tenth of a microsecond, which
tells the asteroid's distance with a resolution as fine
as a decameter. We also measure the echo's Doppler
frequency shift, which tells us the asteroid's
line-of-sight speed with a resolution that can be as
small as the speed of the tip of a clock's minute hand.
The fractional precision of radar
astrometry is typically between 10-6 and
10-8, making it very powerful in refining
asteroid orbits.
Fortunately, if a sequence of radar
images can be obtained with the asteroid in a lot of
orientations, then one can solve for both the shape and the spin
state. Scott Hudson
first figured out how to do this, and the result has been
publication of computer models for the shapes of several
asteroids, most of which also are available as replicas
tthat you can hold in your hand.
Radar observations have revealed a variety of exotic NEAs, including a two-kilometer-wide piece of metal ( 6178 (1986DA)), a world shaped like a paramecium (Geographos), asteroids in non-principal-axis spin states (Toutatis and 1999 JM8), contact-binary shapes (e.g.,Castalia) and binary systems (e.g., 1999 KW4), and one tiny, rapidly rotating, spheroidal, carbonaceous monolith that is a prime candidate for people to visit and eventually assimilate (1998 KY26) .

Milan, Italy : A judge in Milan has ordered global oil giants, Eni and Shell to stand trial in Italy in proceedings to begin March 5 – over allegations of bribery and corruption in the 2011 purchase in Nigeria of an offshore oil block.
Both companies are charged with corruption in Nigeria over the deal, which allegedly saw Nigeria's former president Goodluck Jonathan and his oil minister pocket bribes.
Both have repeatedly maintained that they acquired the rights to the lucrative block in line with Nigerian law.
The trial in Italy is expected to start in March next year. It follows a lengthy investigation by Italian prosecutors.
Anti-corruption watchdog Global Witness says it could be one of the biggest corporate corruption trials in history.
The companies are also facing charges in Nigeria over the case, which concerns Nigeria's OPL-245 – an offshore oilfield estimated to hold 9bn barrels of crude oil – secured by Shell and Eni in 2011.
The allegation is that a large part of the $1.3bn payment went not to the Nigerian state but to Nigerian politicians as a bribe.
Emails sent between Shell management, which were released by Global Witness in April, suggest Shell was aware the money would end up in the pockets of Nigerian politicians.
As well as the two corporations, key individuals in the companies are facing charges including Eni's CEO Claudio Descalzi and former Shell executive Malcolm Brinded.
The prosecution claim that the oil companies used a Nigerian middleman, a former oil minister Dan Etete, to pay the bribe.
Mr Etete will also go on trial.
"Eni's Board of Directors has reaffirmed its confidence that the company was not involved in alleged corrupt activities in relation to the transaction," the Italian firm said in a statement Wednesday.
"Eni expresses its full confidence in the judicial process and that the trial will ascertain and confirm the correctness and integrity of its conduct," it said.
It insisted in particular that "chief executive Claudio Descalzi was not involved in the alleged illegal conduct".
A Shell statement said it was confident that nothing illegal had occurred, adding: "We believe the trial judges will conclude that there is no case against Shell or its former employees."

Bridal Portraits | Wormsloe Plantation
Every once in a while, I get the opportunity to travel with my clients to a destination location to make a bouquet for them for bridal portraits (for anyone outside of the South, you might be wondering what this is; it is a way for a bride to have a test run of everything before the wedding day while also getting gorgeous images for her parents to put up in their home).
These weekend getaways are some of my favorite moments with my clients because we're not focused on getting through all of the details of a meeting. Instead, we get to hang out, have fun, and get to know each other better outside of my studio.
In March, I had the pleasure of traveling to Savannah, Georgia with my clients the Grissoms. See the amazing images from Erin Wilson below at Wormsloe Plantation! Stay tuned for the second half of these bridal portrait images where we strolled through downtown with all of the gorgeous architecture.

"I suddenly feel like Pippin and Merry," the lizard man says to himself as he dismounts the ATV. He turns to Talas and the others. "Who are these guys? Where are Alex and Sia?"

As Ted, Amanda, Carlos and Owen race their vehicles, they begin to smell and odd odor in the air, almost like spring in a forest, thick humus, sprouting plants and young trees. Though they're traveling fast, it's almost as if roots are appearing out of nowhere just behind them, tripping the blue dwarfs that Amanda called "automatons". Trees seem to lean in, branches swinging low.

In front of them, the forest seems to open up, creating a road. The higher branches close as if to block them from being seen. Carlos is forced down to near ground level, the branches and leaves far too thick to permit to get too much altitude.

The path seems to be leading them towards the trees that Carlos had sighted, and then after a few minutes, the stand of purple trees are in view, as well as a giant that looks like half-human, half-tree. Alex and Sia are not in sight.

The tree-man looks at Alex and Sia and says "There, your friends have arrived, largely safe and sound. I suggest they cover those vehicles up very fast. Your enemies may have lost you, but they'll be on the lookout, and I can't keep this all up for much longer. Once everyone is settled in, then we can get you into a warm spot and have a bit of a chat."

As of today, you will be able to purchase the most exceptional cigars ever rolled and blazed.
The essence of the essence will be hiding in smoke at Mews of Mayfair!
Cigar devotees embrace yourselves as Mews reveal two exciting brands: the Cohiba Behike and the Bolivar Gold Medal.
La Cave will be trading two of the three new exciting sizes for the Cohiba Behike cigars, well-known for their use of the unique Medio Tiempo leaf, quite distinctive in its taste. As this leaf scarcely flourishes, the production of Cohiba Behike cigars is therefore limited, adding to the brand's prestige.

Submarine Design Solutions
Paramarine Advanced Submarine Design Software
Paramarine is used by 5 of the top Submarine builders to design and analyse more than 20% of the current new build submarines. It is also used by several Governments worldwide to inform procurement decisions and support their current fleets.
Paramarine is the world's only fully integrated Naval Architecture Design and Analysis product that can handle the complexities of submarine design. Its advanced design capabilities are built upon the Siemens PLM ParasolidTM solid modeller, which provides much of the geometric detail required to enable the accurate analytical capabilities - as well as providing excellent geometric exchange with other CAD systems such as NX and Foran.
Paramarine for Advanced Design
Paramarine uses a functional building block approach for advanced design. This enables designers to examine the impact of 3D layout of their submarine from the early stages of design in a really visual way. It allows the designer to rapidly define their concept design, assess the weight and space balance and then use the full breadth of submarine analysis in an integrated way.
Paramarine's integrated nature means that there is no time lost in translation between different packages and no risk of data loss or corruption.
Concept design in Paramarine can be performed on different levels, starting with a handful of blocks building up to a complex model of several hundred as the design increases fidelity. Using the building block approach helps the designer to understand the design drivers and risks then explore them and make informed decisions.
Take the concept design a stage further by using Paramarine's parametric nature and perform design space exploration, producing literally thousands of designs.
Submarine Analysis
Using QinetiQ MDS's 20 years of Submarine design experience, Paramarine has a wealth of Submarine specific analyses all in one integrated product. Confidence in the analyses comes from the independent validation of results that Paramarine has and that it is approved for use by the UK MoD.
- 'Stability - Paramarine can handle the complex issues that submarines pose, from submerged stability through to trim and inclining experiments.
- 'Structures - Classical pressure hull strength assessment allows the designer to optimise the scantlings for a minimum weight.
- 'Manoeuvring - linear derivative prediction and a full six degree of freedom manoeuvring simulation.
- 'Powering and Endurance - Naked hull effective power estimation combined with a unique energy based approach to endurance captures the requirements of the most demanding submarines operational profile.
"BAE Systems have been using Paramarine for over ten years for both stability certification and early stage design. Backed by the endorsement of the MoD, Paramarine is today our submarine software design tool of choice. Paramarine is easy to use, intuitive, has a good graphical user interface and is extremely flexible and powerful. I think Paramarine is probably the most powerful tool available today for submarine design."
Rob Ritchie, Engineering Manager - Naval Architecture, BAE Systems - Submarine Solutions.

2018 Will Be Year of Voice Search [Infographic]Posted by Al Sefati on December 15, 2017
By 2020, it's expected that more than half of all online searches will be done by voice search. Given the rising prominence of Alexa, Siri, and other hands-free helpers—to say nothing of the continued dominance of mobile technology—this may not come as much of a surprise. Nevertheless, it's something that marketers need to know and understand, as it has major implications for the future of SEO.
Infographic Data:
- More than 50% of all searches will be voice searches by 2020
- Nearly 50% of people are now using voice search when researching products
- Currently, 20-25% of mobile searches are voice searches
- 21% of mobile voice search users said they use voice search because they don't like typing on their mobile device (Source: Statista 2015)
- As of May 2016, 1 in 5 searches on an Android app in the U.S. were through speech
- Voice search is quicker than traditional search (Humans can speak 150 words per minute vs typing 40 words per minute)
- According Google, 40% of adults use voice search to find directions while 43% of teens use voice search to call someone.
- Voice Search Consumer usage is on the rise
The way people search is changing all the time—and marketing teams need to adapt in kind. Make sure your own SEO strategies are built with voice search in mind. For a full marketing audit and overhaul, reach out to the SEO experts at Orange County-based EverythingOnline today.

How Graphics Cards Work" The images you see on your monitor are made of tiny dots called pixels. At most common resolution settings, a screen displays over a million pixels, and the computer has to decide what to do with every one in order to create an image. To do this, it needs a translator -- something to take binary data from the CPU and turn it into a picture you can see. Unless a computer has graphics capability built into the motherboard, that translation takes place on the graphics card. alternatives to codecademy Running my software company from 2009 to 2011 without a development background was challenging to say the least.

An initial set of discussions with local residents who belong to local groups has been used as a way to kick-start the sharing of first ideas for what might feature in a Neighbourhood Plan for Rearsby. Including....
Rearsby once had a 'Village Design Statement' but this was without 'weight' in the planning framework and could not direct what would finally happen in the village area. The opportunity to create a new Neighbourhood Plan would be specific to the village and would become a formal addition to the Borough's Core Strategy when considering future local planning applications. It can have very specific intentions but cannot contradict the Core Strategy, and would need to follow the Borough Council's Core Strategy and be in accordance with wider EU and UK planning rules and policies. The policies and principles of such a Neighbourhood Plan can, however, include residents' more precise views on the types and locations of new housing and commercial development; on preserving the conservation area and other open spaces; and on the facilities wanted for the village area..
