Circus activities are not only a fun way to fitness; they have been proven time and time again to enhance:
• concentration
• coordination
• flexibility
• self esteem
These factors lead to benefits in child development that few other activities can boast.
'Captain Fatso' has been trained under the keen tutelage of both the Chinese and the Russians. He has taught kids and adults circus for the past 25 years, many of whom are now talented professionals within the industry.
Workshops can be tailored to your situation, be it in schools, holiday programs, sporting clubs, corporate team building or simply any event.
A typical workshop of 1 ½ hours will include:
• warm up
• flexibility
• handstands
• acrobatics
• partner acrobatics
• human pyramid building
• juggling and manipulation
Workshops can be specialized if needed and also include a performance aspect to develop a show for students at the end of training.
Need a venue?
We can bring the 'Pink Flamingo' for the ultimate circus experience.
Past Projects
Matt has primarily been based in Australia for the past 25 years where he has conducted training throughout schools, communities and remote aboriginal communities.
World Tour
Matt spent 12 months touring with his own 'Lunar Circus' overland through Asia performing and teaching to some of the most under-privileged kids in Malaysia, Thailand and Cambodia, where they worked with the M'lop tapang organization turning local street kids into the stars of the show.
Matt has also performed and taught extensively in Vanuatu, a small country comprising 83 islands in the south Pacific. During this time he performed in remote villages on remote islands where never before had they seen the likes of circus. He also worked with a group of village kids to develop a show performed at their annual independence day. What a mind blowing experience!!
Professional Schools
Matt has trained and was Director of "Education and Training" at the renowned 'Flying Fruit Flying Circus'. He has taught at the National Institute of Circus (NICA) in Melbourne and has been a regular guest tutor at the Belfast Circus School.
Matt runs the 'Lunar Circus Summer School' and Western Australian Circus Festival from his home in Margaret River every January. It's a three week training project for hundreds of students with an array of circus abilities using some of the finest tutors from around the world and it culminates in a 3 day celebration of circus with shows from noon until midnight. Come on over!

We all know that any wooden barrel has the least amount of appeal in a typical household; old, dusty and bulky is actually the impression it conveys to any visitor. However, with just a touch of creativity and practicality, we might just be in for a whole new treat. Recycling a wooden barrel can go a long way and unlock much more possibilities of function and style.
The Recycled Barrel Liquor Cabinet
This is the perfect piece that can enhance the ambiance of any room. It will give your patrons a luxurious vibe in their very own household. It's not just your ordinary liquor cabinet. But you'll bet is one handsome place to put in your consumer's liquor stash
The Recycled Barrel Ice Chest
Another thing you can do with a recycled barrel is making it into an ice chest. Producing this kind of product gives your brand a sense of authenticity with how you handle liquor. It gives the illusion of drinking a freshly drafted bottle of beer for your patrons. What a way to get a decent bottle of your best liquor.
Let's go beyond the actual function of a barrel, which is initially the primary storage area for any type of liquor. The Barrel Revival gives us that delicate touch in a living room which can be an alternative of an actual bar. Recycled barrels offer style and function hand in hand for the wine and cocktail lovers. This product makes sure no resource is wasted in the process of making these delectable drinks.

11 Basic Trigonometry Terms You Should Know
Trigonometry (the study of the relationship between the angles and sides in a triangle), is a mathematical branch that has had a direct impact on how we understand our world and certain phenomenon that exist in it (be it in science or in everyday life). For example, it has contributed to geography, astronomy, oceanography, engineering, physics, and even architecture and digital imaging. As you can imagine, it is a fascinating subject to learn, and one that can help you gain a new perspective on the things around you. What's even more valuable is that learning trigonometry will allow you to develop your problem-solving skills and strengthen your mathematical thinking. For that reason, if you're a student who will be taking trigonometry in the near future, you should refer to the post below. Through it, you'll be introduced to some basic trigonometry terms so that you can begin this exciting learning process the right away.
Basic Trigonometry Glossary
Angles are incredibly important in trigonometry. They are commonly referred to as a measure of rotation, but they can also be defined as the amount of space available between two lines that intersect. Plane angles are measured in degrees.
Trigonometric Function
The trigonometric functions are the basis of trigonometry. In short, they express the ratio between the catheti, the hypotenuse, and the angles of a right-angled triangle. There are six trigonometric functions (to learn more about each one, continue reading this glossary): sine, secant, cosine, cosecant, tangent, and cotangent. There are also
inverse trigonometric functions
which invert the outputs of a trigonometric function to make them into inputs on another function. Arcsine, arccosine, and arctangent are known inverse functions.
If you are studying right-angled triangles, you need to know what the hypotenuse is. In simple terms, it is the longest side of a triangle, and you'll always be able to find it directly in front of the right angle in the triangle.
If you're familiar with basic geometry, you know that every triangle has three sides. As explained above, the hypotenuse is the longest of these sides. The other two sides of the right-angled triangle are known as the catheti (singular: cathetus). Each cathetus, or side, can also be differentiated, however. When you're talking about an
adjacent cathetus
, you refer to the side that, along with the hypotenuse, forms the angle you're interested in measuring. The
opposite cathetus
, as its name states, is opposite to that angle (i.e. it's directly in front of it).
In a frame of reference, the vector is a mathematical structure that has both direction and magnitude.
Trigonometrically speaking, a period is the length of an interval in which the smallest value in a periodic function repeats itself. Tied to that point, the
periodic function
is a function that sees its values repeat once each period. If you think you could benefit from expert assistance in your journey to learning AP Math, turn to

When you have a line representing undefined values in a trigonometric function, you have an asymptote.
Trigonometric Identity
A trigonometric identity can be defined as an equation that is made up of trigonometric functions, and that proves true for every value of an angle.
When you're dealing with a right-angled triangle, the sine represents the ratio of the hypotenuse and the opposite cathetus (or side). You'll find that sine is commonly abbreviated to sin or sen. The sine has a reciprocal or complementary trigonometric function, known as the
. This term is often shortened to scs or cosec.
In the cosine's case, you're referring to the ratio between the adjacent cathetus and the hypotenuse (again, in a right triangle). Its abbreviation is cos. The reciprocal trigonometric function of the cosine, is the
, which is often shortened to sec.
Lastly, the tangent represents the ratio between both catheti or sides in a right triangle. It is commonly abbreviated to tan or tg. Its reciprocal function is the
(which is often shortened to cot, cta, or cotg).

QUANG TRI (VNS) — Police in Quang Tri Province have said that smuggling at the Lao Bao border gate is on the rise after discovering three large quantities of smuggled goods last week.
The goods include imported tobacco, alcohol and milk. Police did not specify the quantity but said the estimated value was VND1 billion (US$47,000).
The goods were counterfeits of popular brands and posed health threats to consumers, police said.
Lao Bao is situated on the border with Laos. — VNS

Vomiting in a Designated Receptacle = A Developmental Milestone?
For about 10 minutes on Friday I was under the impression that we might travel to Ethiopia in the middle of January. While I would be delighted to bring Norah and Atticus home sooner than planned, it did make me panic a little. Holy cow, there are a lot of things to get done before they come home! A call to our adoption coordinator confirmed that we definitely won't be traveling until at least February. We're painting the nursery this weekend and I'll post some pictures when we finish later.
Paul and I also have to make some decisions about our travel plans this weekend. Our answers are due on Monday and the choices are harder than I'd imagined. I've been so excited about visiting Ethiopia ever since we started this journey. Now, though, I'm starting to get a little scared. It's sinking in that we're going to spend our first week as first-time parents in a developing country where we don't speak the language. I'm a little intimidated by that. I keep reminding myself that people do this all the time and come home with wonderful experiences to share.
1 comment:

I agree, vomit management is important. Do post pics of the nursery soon! I can't wait to see it.
And you know why all those adoption blogs you read are replete with joyful stories about that visit? Because the 'developing' world refers merely to the economy. In every other way, they're lightyears ahead of 'us,' in terms of love, generosity, and kindness. I think the generosity is the key. People with NOTHING will offer you food, tea, and help when you're lost. Now, you may get screwed by the cab driver at the airport, but 'screwed' refers only to giving them a few more dollars than they'd expect from an Ethiopian. When I landed in Cairo years ago, not knowing the language at all, I ended up overpaying by ten bucks. I felt embarrassed, but then I was like... what the hell is ten bucks? Right? Right. It's going to be the most awesome experience ever, or at least until you get them home. Can't wait!!! I love you all!

What if Russia has it's eyes on America?
Yet KGB spies were here during the Cold War. After the Soviet Union fell in the early 90s, probably a number of these spies remained, even if they're no longer thought of as "KGB".
Today we can bet that Russia has a healthy and vital network of spies in the United States, including more than a few "double agents" -- meaning U.S. citizens who work in federal government like CIA and national defense who, like many Americans, can be persuaded to pass on intel when enough dollar bills are offered.
We're talking Russia would have to be willing to nuke a few million Americans preemptively (Cold War suitcase nukes, anyone?), or perhaps use a highly lethal virus concocted deep in a Russian laboratory, and then spread across U.S. cities like a plot from the television series "24" -- or perhaps a combination of both suitcase nukes and lethal virus.
Could commercial airlines really be used to help get a Russian first wave into American airspace and parachuting into American communities?
Then of course there are container ships -- the U.S. has dozens of cargo ships entering U.S. ports every day of the year.
Sign Up for our free email newsletter packed with survival tips and tips on preparing for widespread disaster. Topics covered include survival foods, martial law, government collapse, living off the land, self defense, survival hunting, survival fishing, and MORE...
How many of these could the Russians move into place, just off shore or even land and then launch attacks from U.S. ports?
That ace may be "American based" manufacturing plants, where instead of just cars or airplanes being built, maybe weapons and weapon delivery systems are being built right here on U.S. soil, in industrial areas of major U.S. cities, with access to trucking fleets, helicopters, and heavy equipment that can be used to lay siege to several "soft targets" essential to putting America into a strangle hold and forcing a surrender.
In those U.S. based Russian manufacturing plants... how about Russian drones and -- right on the forefront of science and technology -- Russian robots?
In World War II, against Japan, America's secret "ace" was the first working atomic bombs, shortly later dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, bringing Japan to a quick surrender. Japan at first didn't know what hit them.
Looking at Japan, history has seen the ace card played before with disastrous consequences.
Does Russia have an "ace" card?
On day one of the attack, Russian suitcase nukes detonated in dozens of strategic places, including just outside several U.S. military bases; U.S. military bases wiped completely off the map -- one more ace up the Russian military's sleeve.
Localized EMP attacks that shut down power systems to critical infrastructure.
Russian forces come to power in your community. And now you have to swear allegiance or face execution.
Or there's one more option to consider...
Whatever happens, will you live or die if a scenario like this one ever plays out?
Would you have a plan if something so far fetched as a Russian invasion ever brings parachuting troops into your community?
Do you have a back-up plan for the day you have to abandon your preps and make a hasty evacuation into the countryside, like World War II Jews fleeing Nazis as tanks and troops roll into town?
Outfit your secret room with ventilation, food, water, power, and communications equipment, so that if you and your family suddenly had to hide out, you could stay hidden for several hours, and then make your escape finally under the cover of darkness.
If there's no cover, put together something that will help camouflage you from the air above, where helicopters maybe patrolling, looking out for people down on the ground below fleeing the area.
That could be something as simple as a small tarp and a 2 - 3 cans of spray paint, with colors that look like the colors of the area you're likely to travel through. For example, a desert environment, typical in Southern California, Utah, Arizona, and Nevada. If you hear chopper blades in the distance, drop to the ground next to a rock or ditch or whatever object happens to be nearby, and use your painted tarp to disguise yourself from eyes in the sky.
Use the forests because you need to have cover, and you also want to be in an area no one is likely to parachute troops into, if you happen to be fleeing an area under a wide scale attack. Remember, parachuting troops need a clearing to land.
Staying deep under the trees both blocks you from eyes in the sky, and keeps troops from landing near your location should you (or any number of people you're traveling with) be spotted. I can't recommend it enough, but a handy water filter will provide you with several weeks of water filtration from streams and lakes you'll come across as you travel).
Consider heading for areas that have small farming operations -- not wide scale agriculture because again these may be targeted by an invasion force -- and / or small towns in or near the mountains that don't have an airport. Airports make it easy to fly in troops, and we can bet that the Russians have every airport and even many smaller airstrips marked down on maps. A rural airstrip's proximity to a crucial "soft target" (keep reading) makes it more likely to be targeted in the early days (or even the first day) of a wide scale invasion.
Most likely, if you've made it to the forest far away from a populated area, don't expect a pursuit from invading forces. Not yet anyway. They're going to be busy seizing communities, and then going house to house.
Only as the days and weeks pass, are invading forces finally likely to make it out to distant rural towns and homes out in the countryside. That is of course except for towns and communities that lie in the path of prevailing winds that may carry dangerous levels of radiation from any major cities or military installations that have suffered a nuclear blast.
One way to add a layer of protection includes potassium iodate tablets, which can help protect you from the effects of radiation. (The U.S. government is reported by some to be stockpiling on these tablets.)
1) Oil refineries and oil wells
2) Natural gas plants
3) Gas refineries
4) Airports (even small ones)
5) Mining operations
6) Nuclear power plants and hydroelectric dams
7) Media outlets (newspaper, radio, television)
8) Industry (aerospace, metals, etc)
9) Manufacturing
10) Commercial agriculture (not all agricultural areas, just those considered essential to feeding Russian forces while also helping win over a conquered population by providing citizens with basic food needs)
Just about anything that keeps America powered and fed is likely to be a soft target, and not necessarily something that an invading force may want to simply destroy. Depending on how thorough their plans are for occupation, they may want to get these systems back online shortly after any have powered down, or even before one of these systems has powered down. (These 10 areas may not include all areas of importance to Russian invaders, but are some common areas to consider avoiding in your evacuation plans.)
And if you're considered essential personnel employed at one of these soft targets, there's a chance that invading forces already know a lot about you -- your name, where you live, and -- a scary thing to consider -- perhaps they even have your family named and numbered and on a list.
Russia (and its allies) have had a long time to put some thought into something like this.
If it ever happens, its because they believe its going to succeed.

Your calendar may be saying otherwise but you are safe ignoring it. The allergy season is slowly setting in despite the official start date being over a month away.
Considering the mild and wet winter has permitted the unseasonably high temperatures to set in most parts of the US, several areas are reporting a high count of pollen some few weeks earlier than expected, reports ABCNews.
Areas with high pollen count
As expected, the South is on the frontline when it comes to pollen count because trees are coming back to life after months of dormancy courtesy of the winter weather.
In the week starting 19th Feb, the pollen levels in Atlanta were at 1,289 as reported by the Atlanta Allergy and Asthma Center. In 2016, nothing of this sort was recorded until mid-March as shown by the center's data.
In addition, a daily AccuWeather map indicates that some sections of Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, North Carolina, Georgia and Louisiana recorded higher levels of tree pollen.
Winter Weather and Spring Allergy
According to Dr. Yasmin Bhasin, an allergist at Allergy and Asthma Care in Middletown, New York, the wet winter season across the country can be a precursor to a much worse allergy season.
The levels of allergy are determined by how much rain and snow was received, explains Miss Bhasin. It is dependent on how effectively the trees will grow and flourish so as to pollinate in spring. If the trees are healthier, expect more pollen to be produced which translates to high levels of allergy.
Typically, we expect mid-March to be the on-set season for allergy but that can change according to the amount of allergens produced and the previous winter.
The most conspicuous allergen in spring is tree pollen. Each region has unique tree pollen. But the primary ones are from birch, oak, elm and maple trees which cause a lot of misery to the allergic individuals.
Seasonal Flu Reaches Epidemic Levels in US
But even as allergy sets in, the CDC has reported that the seasonal flu is equally taking an effect.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 8 deaths have so far resulted from seasonal influenza and about 10 states have thousands of people depicting flu-related symptoms.
The CDC reports that for every 100,000 people, 15.4 are hospitalized due to flu. There are certain times of the year when the flu reaches epidemic levels.
Some of the symptoms associated with flu include fever, headache, cough, and joint pain. Typically, this season ends in March when the allergy season sets in.
The total number of affected persons per annum varies with the CDC stating that generally "millions of people are sickened, hundreds of thousands are hospitalized and thousands or tens of thousands of people die from flu every year."

Democrats in Denial
If 2006 was a year of denial for the Bush administration -- demonstrating that patience in pursuit of a failing military strategy is not a virtue -- 2007 was a period of awakening. Like Abraham Lincoln before him, the president discovered the cathartic pleasure of replacing generals. In Petraeus, Bush found his Grant. He also found that war, like politics, is the art of adjustment.
As the political blitzkrieg of 2008 begins in earnest, it is the Democrats who, on a number of key issues, are living in a state of denial.
In Iraq, coalition casualties are down significantly, along with Iraqi civilian casualties, roadside bombings and suicide attacks. Large sections of Baghdad have been pacified, and the military rolls toward Mosul. Al-Qaeda in Iraq is in reeling retreat. And, most impressive, we have seen the first example of a large-scale Sunni Arab uprising against Islamic extremism. By one estimate, 30,000 former insurgents and tribal leaders are now fighting the enemy in Iraq, adding their surge to our own.
This progress is reversible, especially while Moqtada al-Sadr's militias maintain the capability to mount their own mini-Tet Offensive. But Gen. David Petraeus's counterinsurgency strategy has succeeded with disorienting speed. Its combination of vision and competence will fill chapters in military textbooks.
In spite of these gains, Democratic presidential candidates still insist on reckless timetables for withdrawal -- the surest way to rescue defeat from the jaws of victory. And Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid -- who declared that the surge had "failed" even before it was fully implemented -- now contends that "the surge hasn't accomplished its goals."
Bush was hurt by his late and grudging acknowledgment of military failure. Democrats deserve to be hurt by their late and grudging acknowledgment of military success.
Democratic rhetoric on education is also an assault on reality. Attacking No Child Left Behind is a reliable campaign applause line -- Hillary Clinton promises to "end" the law, because it is "just not working." Actually, the imposition of educational standards and testing has improved math and reading scores and begun narrowing the gap between disadvantaged and affluent students.
There is an angry backlash against NCLB among some Democratic interest groups. Suburban districts resent being labeled as failures just because some minority and disabled children aren't making progress. But that is the whole purpose of the law -- to prevent districts from hiding the poor performance of minorities behind the success of other students. Such districts should feel less resentment and more shame.
Teachers unions object to standardized tests, preferring more subjective, nonacademic measures of school success. And that, from one perspective, is understandable. Failing corporations do not like accurate financial disclosures. Slow runners resent those pesky stopwatches. The unions want underperforming schools and ineffective teachers to be shielded from objective scrutiny. But testing is the only way to determine when disadvantaged students are being betrayed -- and by whom.
Democratic candidates attack the Bush tax cuts as a fiscal disaster -- just as a growing economy has boosted tax revenue to its highest level in history, halving the federal deficit in three years.
In 2008, Democrats are convinced that their time has come. But elections are not won by appealing to the clock. Political vacuums are filled by ideas. And Democrats in denial require some adjustments of their own.
Instead of criticizing an increasingly successful Iraq strategy, it would be helpful to hear some realistic proposals to improve American prospects in Afghanistan, where violence has reached its highest level in four years. NATO's military efforts in that country are uncoordinated, even incoherent -- demonstrating the risks of multilateralism. The resolve of some European nations is wavering. An al-Qaeda ministate is developing across the Pakistan border. How would a Democratic response differ from the current one?
Instead of attacking a successful education reform, it would be helpful to hear some practical ideas for improving teacher quality. In the real world of failing schools, the main problem is not too much accountability; it is too few effective instructors. Why should teacher pay be determined by collective bargaining instead of teacher competence, especially in low-income schools that need to reward and retain good teachers? Why not give districts more flexibility to fire teachers who would serve children better by changing professions?
Taking a distasteful dose of reality is one of the most difficult things in politics. Clearly it was hard for the president on Iraq -- but it was good for the country. And it would be good for America if Democrats opened wide for a dose of their own.

my baby
is not so baby anymore. when you see them daily it's hard to see them growing up right in front of your eyes. my neighbor stopped by while out for a walk and she commented on how big Boston is getting. i know she's like 2 (almost 3) going on 16 attitude wise, but to me she's still a baby. although, today as i was mowing the lawn and watching her ride the 4 wheeler and peddle her big girl bike it dawned on me, i don't have a baby anymore! some may think it's time for another baby but quite honestly i am very content with my two... and not having a "baby"! (if you lived with my Boston you'd understand why!! ha ha) anyways, I dug out some photographs I took of her about a month ago (april 22) and already so much has changed. one being that she had her first hair cut! it's such a cute little bob now- which makes her look even more grown up!
and i've just got to mention that she HATES getting her pictures taken, so the ones below are a real treat to me. and just for the record, it ended in tears- like after 5 minutes!
though she may get older in age she'll always be my baby girl. i love you so much Boston.

Many of us who love to play music, especially amateur musicians including myself, often can't do so without "printed" music. We need a full score, a lead sheet, or at the very least a chord chart in front of us. We are also painfully aware of the problems of paper sheet music, and can share all too many horror stories about blown page turns, sheets of music spontaneously deciding to leap to the floor, or discovering at the very last minute we don't have the right music with us. It's sort of an odd love/hate relationship. But there is hope.
With the Apple iPad and a "score" app, we paper-bound musicians finally have a legitimate solution that can solve our problems without stressing us out during performance. Using a score app like NextPage, we can eliminate the most serious problems that traditional paper plagues us with. And, instrumentalists who need both hands to play can add a wireless foot pedal to improve their performance capabilities even more.
The big idea behind a score app is that it presents the music to you one page at a time and allows you to move between pages using simple finger gestures or a foot pedal. NextPage, for example, lets you tap or swipe to turn pages forwards and back, and also allows you to skip to a segno or coda with just a single tap. If you add a wireless page turner, such as the AirTurn BT-105, you can even use your feet instead of your fingers.
In addition to turning pages, a score app will allow you to load much, if not all of your music into your iPad. Imagine having your whole performance library with you all the time! No more embarrassment and apologies to the band about forgetting your music! Most score apps require music to be in the well-known PDF format (please leave a comment below if you'd like this explained), so you will first need to convert your paper music into PDF files by scanning them before you can load them into your score app. This may sound like a lot of work, but if you put together a good workflow (the subject of a future post), it's really not burdensome, and the results are absolutely worth it. Some apps will even allow you to take a picture of your paper music using the iPad's built in camera, and then present the images to you as you play.
If you play multiple songs during a single performance, you ideally want to move very quickly from one song to the next. Most score apps do this by letting you organize your songs into a "set list" containing all the songs you need for a given performance. NextPage, for example, allows you to create multiple set lists, so you can save and re-use lists of songs for different occasions. If you play with a group that rehearses for multiple upcoming performances, you can switch between different sets in just seconds. When you play from a set list, as you reach the last page of one song, paging forward again takes you directly into the first page of the next song. Imagine…no reaching for another pile of paper! Usually there are also ways to skip directly to another song anywhere in the set with just one or two taps. Easy. Painless. Pure performance joy!
Beyond these basic functions, the various score apps in the App Store have a lot of fancy bells and whistles, such as being able to mark up your music, share it with others wirelessly, transposition, zoom in/out, half page turns, and much more.
The bottom line is that you want to find an app that fits you. As much I would love to see you use NextPage, you may have some special requirements it was not designed to meet. But no matter what app you choose, if you can find one that simply organizes the music, turns the pages well, and doesn't crash, you will be able to finally tame the paper music monster, improve your performance, and most importantly, enjoy playing more. NextPage was specifically designed to do these three simple things extremely well. Take a quick look here. Don't wait to tame the paper monster any longer, and good luck on your quest!

21 Jan Mercedes-Benz Visits System Label
This week Daimler AG visited System Label to audit the Company's manufacturing facility in Roscommon. On the back of an audit the previous week from STILL, a leading European supplier of forklift trucks, System Label was well prepared for the Daimler inquisition. A team of four procurement specialists from Daimler's German manufacturing plant arrived at System Label Headquarters to audit the firm. The Daimler team hailed from from a Manufacturing plant where there are 45,000 people employed in a facility that is 2km long. The German facility takes 30 minutes to walk from one end to the other. Based on this it is safe to say, the Daimler team had no problem finding their way around System Label.
Daimler is one of the world's most successful automotive companies. With its divisions Mercedes-Benz Cars, Daimler Trucks, Mercedes-Benz Vans, Daimler Buses and Daimler Financial Services, the Daimler Group is one of the biggest producers of premium cars and the world's biggest manufacturer of commercial vehicles with a global reach. Some of the brands under the Company's umbrella include Mercedes-Benz, Mercedes-AMG, Smart Automobile, Freightliner, Western Star, Thomas Built Buses and Setra to name but a few.
Upon arriving it was straight down to business as System Label's quality systems were stringently examined, but did not falter even slightly. System Label's ISO 13485 and ISO 9001 are embedded quality controls the Company follows rigorously. In addition to these standards, the Daimler Quality Engineer was impressed by the Company's added UL Approved Label Manufacturing status, and the ability to provide full PPAP/ISIR and PSW Submissions.
Next on the pecking order was System Label's manufacturing capabilities. The Daimler team investigated all elements of manufacturing including the digital printing department, reel-to-reel printing area, exact colour matching in the ink mixing quarters, as well as the screen printing area. Daimler was happy on all accounts and commented positively on the Company's attention to detail at every stage in the labelling process.
At each stage in the audit the Daimler Team placed a constant emphasis on the importance of efficiency when applying the labels to their automobiles. In the Daimler facility an E-Class Mercedes is produced every 90 seconds. System Label back splits the Mercedes labels which saves valuable seconds in an environment where perfection is required every time.
System Label currently provide a wide range of labels and decals to Daimler including labels for their A-Class and Sprinter van ranges to name but a few. Niall O'Shea, Managing Director of System Label commented:
"We are delighted to be working with Daimler and we are thrilled all our manufacturing controls are performing at even the highest level. It is a privilege to welcome Daimler and we hope to tighten our relationship with them in the future. This visit further emphasises System Label's ability to perform on an international scale".
The visit proved to be an immense success as it highlighted other possible areas for business between the two Companies. The Daimler team proved to be extremely happy with the Company's performance and ability to deliver a high quality product, on time, and at a competitive price.

Children like computer games as much as you do. Even if they are very young, or even if they are older they are all attracted with this kind of entertainment. There is nothing wrong with that. If you will allow your child or children to get in contact with the computer from an early age they will be more skillful when they will get older and they will really needed. The main thing that you should do is to be really careful when you choose their games.
You shouldn't live them in front of the computer by themselves. This is an activity that should be controlled by parents so children will not over do it so they will not play games that are not that appropriate for their age. Internet can be a dangerous thing for young children if they are not supervised.
There are games created especially for girls and for boys as well. For now lets talk about girls games. For them is quite easy to find games. They are not usually violent, they have mostly pink colors and they are related to dolls or house activities. You can find cooking games, dressing games, Barbie games, Bratz games and many others as well. They can do the manicure to little princesses, do their hair, dress them and undress them. They can learn how to cook pizza, and other stuff. Beside these there are also educational games like puzzles, decorating, painting and others. You can try games like Dancing Penguins, Perfect Wedding cake, Hamster Restaurant, Sparkle Pixie, Nail DIY, Long Hair Princess and many others.
You can find also a large range of games for boys. They won't dress up any doll. They want to be small heroes, or they want to save the princess. Also boys are more competitive than girls are, so racing games, hunting games, shooting ones and strategy ones are more appropriate for them. There is not a bad thing to be competitive in life, so you should develop this side of theirs. They can also play educational games like puzzles, if they are not with pink ponies on them. So you can go for games like Canyon Race, Sonic Blox, The Fisher, Battleships, Pinch Hitter, Ice Race, Space Race, Ghost Castle and many others.

Sometimes Sushi Makes Me Sad
Actually, sushi makes me, and my taste buds, very happy. In fact, after recently getting a friend hooked, I ate it 2 times in 4 days. It's up there on the list of my all time favorite foods and I have no problem downing 3 rolls all by my lonesome.
(I may or may not have ordered all of this for myself. Hint: I ordered all of this for myself.)
Unfortunately, I fear my days of contentedly popping pieces of shrimp tempura and spicy tuna rolls in my mouth while patting myself on the back for eating a "healthy" meal are over. (Notice I did NOT say my days of pigging out on sushi are over!)
Ignorance really is bliss, but these days I like to be informed about the choices that I'm making when it comes to food. I'm totally that person reading every nutrition label and asking every waiter how dishes are prepared. Through a variety of different articles, I've come to the sad conclusion that sushi is likely nowhere near as healthy as you think. It can be a huge calorie trap if you aren't educated. The good news is, it's not all bad news. Nothing can replace doing your own research- but here's what I have discovered and some tips on how to make sushi the well-balanced meal that it has the potential to be.
How to Make Sushi a Healthy Option
I was shocked to read that each sushi roll is made with approximately one cup of rice. That's around 200 calories per roll in rice alone. Most articles I read estimated that around 75% of a sushi roll is actually just rice. And to boot, sushi rice isn't just rice - it's made with vinegar and added sugar. News to me!
If possible, when you're out for sushi, try to order it with brown rice. While it doesn't make a dent in the calories, and it's often $1-$2 extra, brown rice will add fiber to the meal, which can make you feel full faster and helps aid digestion. Plus, white rice is processed and stripped of most of it's nutritional value while brown rice is considered a whole grain!
Obviously, avoiding the rice altogether and ordering sashimi (just slices of the raw fish), is another option, although usually far more expensive than my budget can handle. One article I read suggested ordering "naruto" which from what I gather, is when the rice is replaced by wrapping the ingredients in cucumber- yum! Definitely something to ask about next time I'm out for sushi!
What to Avoid When Ordering Sushi
I'm finally coming to terms with the fact that my go-to order of spicy salmon and spicy tuna rolls, "With the crunchies, please!" is probably one of the worst things on the menu. For one, those delicious "crunchies" are fried (go figure, Lauren). And the reason they're "spicy?" Hot sauce mixed with mayo. One article says that each tablespoon of spicy mayo clocks in at 100 calories and 11 grams of fat! Say it ain't so! Plus, the amount of actual fish used in spicy rolls is typically less than other rolls since it's chopped up and mixed with the sauce- and the quality of the fish can be worse! Sorry spicy rolls- I think we may need to see other people!
- Something I definitely steer clear of on any sushi menu is tempura. Why batter and deep fry your fish when it's already so delicious on it's own?!
- Soy sauce is loaded with sodium, so try to ask for low sodium soy sauce when you're out. Even then, be aware that the sodium content is hiiiigh and try to use it sparingly (I should take my own advice). Also good to note is that anything "miso" is also high in sodium.
- If you're ordering an eel roll- it's likely going to have eel sauce. AKA sugar, sodium, and more sugar.
I hope I didn't just completely ruin your day with this post. Because remember, you can still go out, equipped with this information, and enjoy a delicious, nutritious and healthy sushi meal! OR you can go out and order a spicy salmon roll and lobster tempura salad and that's OK too!
Moderation :)
Now that I know all of this, and have been reading articles on sushi for over an hour (is it time for lunch yet?), I really want to try to make my own! Consider it added to the bucket list.
I leave you with this hilarious video that I hope you enjoy!

Mintec capsules contain peppermint oil, which is a natural, herbal antispasmodic, that may be an effective natural agent for the treatment of the abdominal pain, wind, cramps and spasm associated with IBS. Mintec capsules are specially coated so that they pass through the stomach and the first part of the bowel intact. This delays the release of the peppermint oil until the capsule reaches the part of the bowel that is causing the symptoms.

Angera Allen spends her days running a law firm, and in her spare time enjoys writing, reading, dancing, playing softball, spending time with family, and making friends wherever she goes. Sounds like a cool lady, huh?
Angera started writing after the birth of her daughter in 2012 and hasn't been able to turn the voices off yet.
|The cover of Alexandria
Angera's Spin It series is inspired by the several years she spent married into the world of underground music and her undeniable love of dirty and gritty romance novels.
The characters' lives are fast paced and filled will music, mayhem, and hot men.
Spin It:Book One
Alexandria "Alex" Mancini was isolated and protected by her father for five years since a tragic event.
Alex's life is consumed by music, bodyguards, secrets, and people telling her no, but that all changes when she comes back from Europe after a year of freedom, to work at the label in New York City.
Obstacles are thrown at her from every direction along with ghosts from her past, threatening to throw her into a tailspin and force her back into a life of seclusion.
Who will she turn too…
Who is her friend…
Who is her enemy…
But ultimately, who wins her heart…
She hasn't been Ginger "Snow" Wolfe, the daughter of the Wolfeman MC President in years. She's DJ Gin Gin, an up and coming star in the world of underground music. She left that life... she left because of him, Micah "Shy" Jenkins. The one who built her up, only to leave her broken and bitter. He's the ghost that has haunted her for the past three years.
The glamorous life of DJ Gin Gin is fast paced. She has her music, she has her girls and is living the life she always dreamed. Nights behind the decks, hyping up the crowd and traveling the world. Then there's Brant. Her friend, her confidant, and her protector. Her good time with no strings attached. He just broke through her walls with an off the charts chemistry she hasn't allowed herself to feel in years.
After a heroic incident leaves Ginger broken and vulnerable, she is forced to face the inevitable collide of the life she left behind and the independence she has worked so hard to build.
Shy is back with a full vengeance to claim her and make her see the past isn't what she thought it was. Brant refuses to let her go and is willing to fight for the girl he wants to claim as his own. As if this conflict wasn't enough, drama ensues that threatens to take it all away.
In the battle of the past and the present, who will win Ginger's future?
So who wants to win something?!

3 Recipes to Sip On National Daiquiri Day:
Is the cocktail world getting a little too fancy for our tastes?
Between the aquafaba craze, the vegan foamy stuff, which is now used in cocktail bars everywhere in lieu of real egg whites and a variety of infused spirits featuring ingredients from obscure parts of the world, we are left wondering if we moved a little too far off from from the love cocktails we all grew to love.
The Daiquiri is a simple cocktail comprising or 3 ingredients, two of them unmodifiable without making it an entire different drink. With that in mind, TBDE compiled 3 Daiquiri recipes to sip on today using 3 of the best, yet distinct rums in the world.
1. Havana Club 3 Year Rum - Classic Daiquiri
Latin Americans have been making cocktails using only low budget and simple tools. Havana Club believes that a Daiquiri can be shaken or even stirred if you don't have a handy blender around. The Daiquiri will always require a combination of sweet (sugar), lime (sour) and of course, rum.
You don't need fancy gadgets to make fantastic cocktails. Shake this Daiquiri in any large jar with a lid and it will taste just as good! -- Havana Club
The entire recipe for the Havana Club Daiquiri can be found here on Havana Club's website.
2. Rhum Clemént - Agricole Daiquiri
The Agricole Daiquiri uses 2 oz. Première Canne with equal parts simple cane syrup and fresh lime juice. Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass Garnish with a lime wheel. This awesome poster makes it for a great cocktail menu with amazing recipes featuring the entire line of Rhum Clement.
Agricole is different from other rums as it typically has more open notes that resemble me of a very good cachaça. Some people argue cachaça is a poor man's version of agricole but I know plenty of people in Brazil who would vehemently disagree. In any case, it makes for an amazing daiquiri.
3. Angostura Reserva Rum - Angostura Daiquiri Natural
2 parts Angostura Reserva Rum (or Angostura 5 Year Old Rum to make a luxury Daiquiri), 1.5 parts Lime Juice, 1 part Sugar Syrup or more, depends on how sweet you like it - it is entirely up to the drinker.
Add ingredients into a jam jar, add cubed ice and shake it viciously for 15 seconds. Strain through a sieve into a cocktail glass (or a champagne flute).
The Angostura Reserva Rum is considered one of the best rums in the world and it couldn't go unnoticed as a great option for this year's edition of National Daiquiri Day.
Honorable Mention: Rhum Barbancourt
Serious Eats explored the use of this amazing spirit in a daiquiri blind taste. Not surprisingly, herbal, grassy notes were easy to pick up. Though it didn't mesmerize the authors, it deserves a mention for being a great rum on its own or in other spirit forward cocktails.

While owning a wolf or wolf-hybrid is inhumane and oftentimes illegal, there are a variety of domestic dogs that look like wolves capable of being great pets.
More friendly and companionable than their wild ancestors, most wolf-like dogs still require additional attention and expertise from their owners, due to their thick, long coats, high-level of energy, and great size and strength. Whether such a high-maintenance pet is right for you will depend on the time you're willing to invest in exercising, grooming, and taking care of your dog.
Use this list of 5 popular dogs that look like wolves, which covers everything from the breed's appearance, characteristics, and traits, to find a dog you love, can properly care for, and appreciate for its unique qualities.
Northern Inuit Dog
Many know the Northern Inuit Dog from the Direwolves on Game of Thrones. These large dogs boast a short, dense double coat and a gentle, calm, and friendly demeanor. They don't require excessive amounts of exercise; two walks a day or one long walk is enough, but they are also fine with being outdoors all day.
These wolf-like dogs are bred by the Northern Inuit Society. The breed was created in the 1980s in an effort to produce a family-friendly dog with the appearance of a wolf. It's a mixture of Siberian Husky, German Shepard, and Inuit dogs. According to Northern Inuit Society, there is currently a waiting list for puppies due to their rising popularity, although they are not currently recognized by the Kennel Club as an official breed.
Common Characteristics of Northern Inuit Dogs
- Height: 23-32 inches, Weight: 55-110 pounds, Lifespan: 12-14 years
- Temperament: Friendly, stubborn, intelligent, gentle
- Best Suited For: Active singles, families with older children
Siberian Husky
This wolf-like breed's origins lie with the Chukchi people of Northeastern Asia, who bred the dogs so they could pull sleds and travel long distances in low temperatures. The Siberian Husky was first recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1930, but they became world renown when John Johnson's team of Siberian Husky won the 1910 400-mile long Alaska Sweepstakes Race. Since then, Siberian Huskies have saved lives on search and rescue teams during WWII and many arctic expeditions.
Today they are a favored dog among families, thanks to their intelligence, warmth, and outgoing nature. Born pack dogs, they get along well with other dogs and family members. They are extremely energetic and need a lot of space to run. A large fenced in yard is advisable for Siberian Husky owners. But beware, the dogs are notorious escape artists, so extra tall, deep fences are most effective.
Bred in the arctic, they have a thicker coat than most dogs, which includes a dense undercoat and a long, course top coat, which requires weekly grooming. If you are away from home often this dog is not for you. Due to its social nature, it dislikes being alone for long periods of time. Many Huskies have piercing blue eyes and distinctive face markings. Their coats can be solid or multicolored varying from black, white, gray, red, and brown. You can learn more about these beautiful dogs that look like wolves on the American Kennel Club's Siberian Husky page.
Common Characteristics of Siberian Huskies
- Height: 20-24 inches, Weight: 35-60 pounds, Lifespan: 11-13 years
- Temperament: Adventurous, playful, alert, clever
- Best Suited For: Families with children, active singles, houses with yards
Utonagans are large dogs that look like wolves. They are a combination of Alaskan Malamute, Siberian Husky, and German Shepherd bred in the eighties for the sole purpose of creating a wolf-like dog, rather than for work related needs. According to easypetmd.com, Utonagans were also bred to be as "kind as kittens." They are extremely loving dogs that show little aggression even in the most challenging situations.
Like Siberian Huskies, they have a thick double coat, which requires weekly grooming, and are social pack animals that dispize being left alone. Doing so may result in destructive behavior or escape attempts. If owners are unable to provide these wolf-like dogs with full time companionship, providing your Utonagan with other dogs to be around is encouraged.
Common Characteristics of Utonagan Dogs
- Height: 23-30 inches, Weight: 55-90 pounds, Lifespan: 9-13 years
- Temperament: Friendly, energetic, strong prey drive, intelligent
- Best Suited For: Families with children, active singles, houses with yards
Canadian Inuit (Eskimo) Dogs
Of all the dogs that look like wolves on our list, the Canadian Eskimo Dog breed is the most ancient. With its origins dating back up to 4,000 years from today, the Canadian Eskimo Dogs were bred to be strong sled dogs, hunters, and protectors for the Inuit people. They helped the Thule Civilization cross the Bering Strait between 900 and 1100 AD. Canadian Inuit Dogs can haul up to twice their weight through the bleakest weather.
While this breed was very popular in the 1920s, with a population around 20,000, sometime in the 1960s the breed began to decline as modern technologies, such as snowmobiles and other automobiles gained popularity. By the 1970s there were only around 200 of these dogs left. Today the breed is still at risk but measures are being made to bring these beautiful dogs back by the Canadian Eskimo Dog Research Foundation.
The Canadian Inuit Dogs have a distinct look, with a thick neck and chest, shorter legs, and a dense double coat. Boasting wide set ears, large heads, long coats, and stout statures, these dogs look like a mixture between a bear and wolf. The male dogs have long, poofy, main-like fur around their neck and shoulders, while females have shorter coats.
Both sexes are kind and affectionate, but due to their history as a working companion for the Inuit people, they tend to have a more determined nature and can over respond to stimuli, such as food, exercise, and play, so this breed is best for adult pet owners without children. For this same reason, they require firm training and abundant exercise. Keeping these dogs cool is also important. Their thick coat puts them at risk of overheating, exhaustion, and dehydration in warm weather.
Common Characteristics of Canadian Inuit Dogs
- Height: 20-28 inches, Weight: 40-88 pounds, Lifespan: 10-14 years
- Temperament: Hardy, loyal, strong prey drive, vocal, prefer cold weather
- Best Suited For: Adults, active singles, houses with yards, cold climates
Like the Canadian Inuit Dog, Samoyeds are an ancient breed of dogs that look like wolves. They were bred by the Samoyed peoples of Northern Siberia to pull sleds and are considered one of the dog breeds most genetically similar to wolves. Samoyeds are friendly, social, loyal, and vocal and boast a thick, fluffy double coat, typically in the color of solid white, cream, or biscuit.
They are extremely intelligent, independent, and strong willed, due to their heritage as working dogs in harsh habitats, which can be a challenge for their owner. Samoyeds may not respond well to forceful commands, but should be trained through rewards and sharing understanding and compassion with your pet. Hunting is another instinct prominent in this breed, so ensuring your pet is leashed or within a fenced yard will guarantee its safety, in case it bolts after other animals.
Samoyeds are very social, high energy dogs. Leaving them alone for very long is unhealthy and may lead to destructive or annoying behavior. Their thick, puffy coat requires rigorous grooming and sheds more than the other dogs on our list. Samoyeds get bored fast, so keeping them busy with walks, hikes, or games is a must. They do well around children and their alertness and loyalty make them good watchdogs. You can find out more about them on dogtime.com.
Common Characteristics of Samoyed Dogs
- Height: 19-24 inches, Weight: 50-60 pounds, Lifespan: 12-14 years
- Temperament: Strong-willed, friendly, alert, energetic, gentle, devoted
- Best Suited For: Families, active singles, houses with yards, cold climates

And now for something completely different!
My new group blog, Nine Naughty Novelists, has started Excerpt Thursday, where each of us posts a snippet of a scene around the same theme, with links to a longer excerpt. So every Thursday I'll be posting the full excerpt here. This week the theme is "First Kiss". My excerpt is from The Devil Inside. Enjoy!
Sam narrowed her eyes. "It's two in the morning, Cody. I'm tired and cranky and not in the mood. So save the cheesy innuendo for a better occasion, buddy."
"Yes, ma'am." He subsided on the pillow, allowing her to check his bandages and injuries with no further commentary.
She worked quickly and efficiently, refusing to let herself think about Cody's comments.
And she'd told him she wasn't in the mood? Liar.
The check-up finally finished, she pulled the covers back up and reached to turn off the light.
Cody stopped her with a hand on her arm.
Startled, she looked down at him. "Did you need something?"
"Just this," he said, reached up with his uninjured arm and threaded his fingers through her sleep-tousled hair. Then, tugging gently, he urged her head down toward his.
Part of her insisted she put a stop to it, right now. He was injured, on medication, and in her care.
It would be unprofessional.
But a bigger part, the part that had been crushing on Cody since she was barely in her teens, told her professional side to shut the hell up and let her enjoy the moment. God knew if it would ever happen again.
Closer, closer, until her eyes drifted shut and she pressed her lips to his.
He whispered a kiss across her mouth with infinite delicacy, pulling back a bit before touching his lips to hers again. His mouth was an intoxicating combination of soft and firm, and she sighed against his lips. She could feel his mouth curve into a little smile.
He intensified the kiss then, his lips molding to hers, his thumb tracing the curve of her neck. Her pulse beat crazily beneath his touch, and she sat down on the edge of the bed, no longer certain her legs would hold her up.
Then he stroked his tongue into her mouth, sending a rush of heat through her that would not be denied. Surrendering to the pull of desire, she met him stroke for stroke, groaning against his mouth as their tongues tangled and their breath mingled. His hand slid lower, cupping her breast, and she gasped as he circled her nipple with his thumb. This was what she'd wanted, what she'd desired for so long…
Growling in frustration, he pulled away, his hand dropping against the comforter as he sank back into the pillows. "You'd better go." His voice was raspy, his expression fierce.
Oh, God. What had she done? With a little gasp, she stood and staggered a few steps back from the bed.
"I'll, uh, see you in a few hours," she stammered, and backed out of the room. Even after she'd turned the corner into the hallway, she could barely restrain herself from touching her mouth.
She'd studied physiology and human sexuality. Even so, she could have sworn her lips were actually on fire.
How could such a delicate touch cause such a strong reaction?
Cody's voice carried into the hall. "Maybe you'd better wear your robe next time."
Hell, yeah. She'd wear a snowsuit if she had to. Anything to protect her from the fire burning between them.
Because if she wasn't careful, she was the one who was going to get burned.
