It's been a year already but it feels like yesterday when almost everyone jumped and screamed by the news of Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli getting married! The couple shared this precious moment with their close friends and family in Tuscany, Italy.
Since then many dream couples of Bollywood have tied the knot but no one matches the charismatic dreamy vibes that Virushka give us. They are pure goals! Standing by the same, the couple wished each other in the most adorable way possible.
Nushkie (as Virat lovingly calls her) shared a sweet video compilation of some of their moments from the wedding. Virat, on the other hand, posted a series of unseen photographs from their fairytale wedding! Though we know that they looked every bit of a royal Indian couple that day, these pictures and video have made it even for special.
In the video, we see moments from their wedding compiled with some shots of Virat's speech at one of their family gathering. The video begins with Anushka entering the wedding venue with Kohli's voiceover, "My Wife. Can I say this again? My WIFE!!" cut to him giving a speech amidst their friends (probably at their reception).
From their intimate moments of him adjusting her wedding attire to the jaimaala and the wedding ceremony; the video has it all. "I feel like I was a child till morning and now I've grown up suddenly. MY LIFE!!" Virat says in the video.
"It's heaven, when you don't sense time passing by ... It's heaven, when you marry a good 'man'," Anushka captioned the video. "Can't believe it's been a year already because it feels like it happened just yesterday. Time has truly flown by. Happy anniversary to my best friend and my soulmate.Mine forever," wrote Virat.
I'm not crying, you're crying...

A relative newcomer that was only founded in 2014, ConvertKit has taken the world of email marketing by storm. According to the company, they now have nearly 20,000 active customers of their email services. Their affiliate program works by paying existing customers a lifetime 30 percent commission for referrals that subsequently become ConvertKit customers or who sign up for ConvertKit webinars and other digital products.
Amazon: Many people don't realize that Amazon is a haven for third party sellers, including regular Joes and Janes cleaning out their attics and garages. If you plan to sell more than 40 items per month on Amazon, consider registering as a professional seller. You'll need to pay a $39.99 monthly subscription fee, a referral fee that usually ranges from 6% to 20%, and a $1.35-per-item closing fee for media items. You won't pay the $0.99-per-item selling fee, however. Alternatively, register as an individual seller. The fee schedule is the same as for professionals, except you do have to pay the selling fee and don't have to pay the subscription fee.
Not only will this multiply the money you're bringing in in a serious way, but it protects you against any sudden changes in the market or in your business. Remember that old saying about putting all your eggs in one basket? A few hours a week committed to just one or two of the following opportunities will put you in a much stronger position to be financially safe and independent.
Developing and monetizing microsites can also garner a serious amount of sales. These sites are advertised within a partner site or on the sponsored listings of a search engine. They are distinct and separate from the organization's main site. By offering more focused, relevant content to a specific audience, microsites lead to increased conversions due to their simple and straightforward call to action.
When we talk about marketing on the internet, we're talking about driving traffic or boosting visibility via a number of means. Any type of advertising done on the internet to promote any product, person, service, business or place for that matter, can be deemed as online marketing. However, to succeed in this arena, whether it's SEO, social media, email marketing or beyond, you need to ensure you adhere to the three pillars of trust first and foremost.
Affiliate marketing allows you to make money online, even if you don't have a blog, website, or any products of your own. Following a few simple steps can get you up and running within hours and earning your first commissions right away. Affiliate marketing really is one of the fastest and easiest ways to make money online and should be a part of every online business owner's portfolio.
Before Sharpe ever came into close proximity with the internet marketing field, he was a construction worker. Needing a way to make ends meet, like millions of other people around the world, he turned to a field that could hopefully pay the bills. But try as he might, he was never able to actually get ahead. Until one day, when Sharpe discovered the amount of money being made online by internet marketers, his entire mindset changed.
Building trust with your audience is paramount in affiliate marketing, and the quickest way to lose trust is to recommend products either you haven't used before or that aren't a good fit for your audience. Also make sure you never tell anyone to directly buy a product, you are simply recommending the product. The more helpful you are and the more you make quality recommendations, the more likely your web visitors will come back for your expertise.
When you lack the luxury of time, making money on or offline can seem like an impossible task. How are you supposed to do that when you're working at a life-sucking nine-to-five job? While the stability of full-time employment might allow most to sleep well at night, it doesn't empower your creative juices to search for new income-producing strategies.
City-dwellers often don't use their cars for days or weeks at a time. That idle time can translate to money with services like Getaround and Turo, which let you rent out your car by the hour or day. Earning potential varies by car and location, but standard vehicles typically rent for $30 to $50 per day. Luxury cars and sport-utility vehicles command even more money. Just be sure you talk to your insurance provider before signing up to make sure that you don't run afoul of the policy.
Need more ideas on how to make money online? Another strategy is using webinars to market your product, service, or course. I've done webinars to promote my financial planning practice and to drum up interest in my online course for financial advisors. With a webinar, you're basically offering a lot of tips and advice for free — usually in a live format. At the end though, you pitch your paid product or service with the goal of securing a few deals.

VigLink is an intermediary platform, so it can serve as a backdoor for affiliates who have previously been banned/suspended from working with other affiliate programs like Amazon. And while you can choose specific merchants or offers, VigLink can be set up to work automatically by scanning your published content and dynamically generating affiliate links, making it a great choice for established content producers who are looking for a simpler way to generate revenue via an affiliate program.
Cost per click was more common in the early days of affiliate marketing but has diminished in use over time due to click fraud issues very similar to the click fraud issues modern search engines are facing today. Contextual advertising programs are not considered in the statistic pertaining to the diminished use of cost per click, as it is uncertain if contextual advertising can be considered affiliate marketing.
There are things like solo ads that you can buy or join up with JV partners to help sell whatever it is that you're peddling.

Transcription work from home jobs involve listening to audio files and typing out what you hear. While some types of transcription (such as medical) require training, it is possible to break into general transcription with little to no past experience. Before you start digging through the companies below, you may want to read this post about what general transcription involves and this post about the equipment transcribers use.

Game advertising - In-Game advertising is defined as "inclusion of products or brands within a digital game."[50] The game allows brands or products to place ads within their game, either in a subtle manner or in the form of an advertisement banner. There are many factors that exist in whether brands are successful in their advertising of their brand/product, these being: Type of game, technical platform, 3-D and 4-D technology, game genre, congruity of brand and game, prominence of advertising within the game. Individual factors consist of attitudes towards placement advertisements, game involvement, product involvement, flow or entertainment. The attitude towards the advertising also takes into account not only the message shown but also the attitude towards the game. Dependent of how enjoyable the game is will determine how the brand is perceived, meaning if the game isn't very enjoyable the consumer may subconsciously have a negative attitude towards the brand/product being advertised. In terms of Integrated Marketing Communication "integration of advertising in digital games into the general advertising, communication, and marketing strategy of the firm"[50] is an important as it results in a more clarity about the brand/product and creates a larger overall effect.

An aesthetically pleasing and informational website is an excellent anchor that can easily connect to other platforms like social networking pages and app downloads. It's also relatively simple to set up a blog within the website that uses well-written content with "keywords" an Internet user is likely to use when searching for a topic. For example, a company that wants to market its new sugar-free energy drink could create a blog that publishes one article per week that uses terms like "energy drink," "sugar-free," and "low-calorie" to attract users to the product website.
For some business owners, they'll think of a website. Others may think of social media, or blogging. In reality, all of these avenues of advertising fall in the category internet marketing and each is like a puzzle piece in a much bigger marketing picture. Unfortunately, for new business owners trying to establish their web presence, there's a lot of puzzle pieces to manage.
Of the many key reasons these sites are so massively successful, one stands out in particular: they are genuinely helpful to their visitors. When you need to renew your car insurance, do you seriously go filling in forms on every individual provider's website, or do you instead just fill in the one form on a site like Comparethemarket to get all the quotes you need at once? If you think about the answer honestly, you'll realise exactly why comparison websites like this are so genuinely useful to a visitor.
If you have a knack for organization, you can make money online as a virtual assistant helping people to keep their days in order. A virtual assistant will do everyinthing from bookkeeping to research, database entry, booking travel, and managing email.

You can find great gigs on UpWork, Fiverr, Indeed, and Remote.co.

Before you start digging through the companies below, you may want to read this post about what general transcription involves and this post about the equipment transcribers use.
The topic you choose must have enough depth that you can create a lot of content for it. This is important for building an authoritative site, for search engine optimization, and most importantly, for the end user. If you don't have enough content about a topic, you're not going to be taken very seriously as an authority on the topic and it's unlikely you can convince someone to make a purchase from you.
Hi, Nice article. I am not sure about the process though. I can understand, finding a niche. But, when it comes to affiliate programs I get a little lost. Would I be promoting someone else's products? If so, no problem. I know I need to research high end products with gravity, are these products ones in certain stores, or companies, etc.?? If so, do I need to get permissions to be on an affiliate program with that company? Also, if it is products with a company, then how do I offer promotions on their products since they are not mine? Thank you, Nanette Vlahusich
Many laws specifically regulate the ways online ads are delivered. For example, online advertising delivered via email is more regulated than the same ad content delivered via banner ads. Among other restrictions, the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 requires that any commercial email provide an opt-out mechanism.[108] Similarly, mobile advertising is governed by the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA), which (among other restrictions) requires user opt-in before sending advertising via text messaging.
JVZoo was founded in 2011 and has since rocketed to near the top as one of the most popular affiliate programs out there. JVZoo is unusual in that there are no upfront costs for either publishers or merchants (advertisers). JVZoo's income is exclusively from charging fees (to both the merchant and the affiliate) after a sale has been made. It is also unusual in that it pays commissions "instantly" via PayPal rather than once a week/fortnight/month like other affiliate programs.

LinkConnector imposes a very rigorous and lengthy screening process, so you'll need to prove that you have a high-quality website and established audience before being accepted. Despite its somewhat schizophrenic approach, LinkConnector does have some very happy long-term affiliates. And their "naked links" allow for direct connection to the merchant website without having to be rerouted via LinkConnector, which will give your website an SEO boost.
Every year, hundreds of millions of documents are notarized in the United States: wills, mortgages, citizenship forms, handgun applications. While for decades, this has all been done in person, there is a budding crop of sites that allow notaries to take their services online. If you're already a notary, you can sell your services online. Or, if you want to get started, check out the National Notary's checklist for becoming a certified notary.
LinkConnector has struggled to stand out from the pack but nonetheless has managed to sign some exclusive deals with big name brands, including Writer's Digest, the Disney Store, Ironman, Hats.com, and Everly. Their strictly controlled screening process for both merchants/advertisers and affiliates/publishers means that you can always rely on the quality of products on offer.
The ad exchange puts the offer out for bid to demand-side platforms. Demand side platforms act on behalf of ad agencies, who sell ads which advertise brands. Demand side platforms thus have ads ready to display, and are searching for users to view them. Bidders get the information about the user ready to view the ad, and decide, based on that information, how much to offer to buy the ad space. According to the Internet Advertising Bureau, a demand side platform has 10 milliseconds to respond to an offer. The ad exchange picks the winning bid and informs both parties.
If you're a fitness buff and have the right combination of charisma and business sense, working as a part-time online personal trainer can be both physically and financially rewarding.

Check out this interview with several fitness blog owners who are making a living online, from MonetizePros. As well, I'd recommend checking out this resource if you want to take this business idea seriously and get started with a business plan for your personal fitness trainer business today.
Great article, I have tried a few over the years. I had a side business cleaning offices for years. It did great, but I hated never being able to take more than 3-4 days vacation, so I eventually gave up. I tried MTurk, but if you multiplied my earnings on an hourly basis, it was a little over $6/hr. My blog is much worse, probably less than $0.25/hr.
While any "regular" job requires you to be at work to make money, affiliate marketing offers you the ability to make money while you sleep. By investing an initial amount of time into a campaign, you will see continuous returns on that time as consumers purchase the product over the following days and weeks. You receive money for your work long after you've finished it. Even when you're not in front of your computer, your marketing skills will be earning you a steady flow of income.
Using Fiverr is a great way to pick up work. Once you have signed up you can advertise your services. Fiver allows you to create your own gigs, whether you are offering web design, digital marketing, writing, or something else. You can choose how much you want to charge (it can be more than a fiver) and people will then contact you if they are interested in working with you. Fiverr will not only help you get experience if you are just starting off as a freelancer, but it will also help you earn some extra cash.

Socialize. Especially when you're getting started, you need to establish contacts who are already immersed in the business. They can act as mentors, keep you up to date on industry changes, and even help you land your first or subsequent job. Look for the local chapter of the Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity (AHDI) in your area and join.

Great tips! Since I just started blogging in January I am still really just getting my toes wet in affiliates. However, I did notice that pictures and real life demonstrations of the product really help. For instance, I have several food posts where I talk about my favorite cook books and show what I have cooked out of them, and then included amazon links, sure enough I sold a few cook books.
Your Deals. In addition to establishing a per-class price, also offer packages to entice people to sign up for more than one class. For example, if you intend to host classes on making soap, offer the classes individually, as well as in a group. Someone could take a class learning how to use fresh flowers in homemade soap, or they could buy a bundle that teaches them how to use those, fresh herbs, and plastic toys for kid's soap. However you decide to price your classes, remember that the buyer will want to feel like they're getting a lot for their money. If you can provide that in a fun atmosphere, they'll likely be back time and time again – and they'll bring friends.

I liken this to a paradoxical Catch-22 scenario, because it seems like without one you can't have the other. It takes money to drive traffic, but it takes traffic to make money. So don't make the mistake that millions of other online marketers make around the world. Before you attempt to scale or send any semblance of traffic to your offers, be sure to split-test things to oblivion and determine your conversion rates before diving in headfirst.
Next Day Payment: When you sell on Decluttr, you receive payment within 24 hours after the sale completes and the item arrives at the new owner's address. That's substantially faster than many online consignment platforms, which tend to have more flexible payment terms. And it's much more predictable than auction sites or venues for third party sellers (including Amazon), which typically allow buyers and sellers to work out their own payment arrangements.
In April 2008 the State of New York inserted an item in the state budget asserting sales tax jurisdiction over Amazon.com sales to residents of New York, based on the existence of affiliate links from New York–based websites to Amazon.[45] The state asserts that even one such affiliate constitutes Amazon having a business presence in the state, and is sufficient to allow New York to tax all Amazon sales to state residents. Amazon challenged the amendment and lost at the trial level in January 2009. The case is currently making its way through the New York appeals courts.
We've found the perfect services to offer our clients and the perfect size of our team to offer those services. For the past five years, I've capped the size of IMN at around 48-50 employees. With our size being capped, I've also capped the work each department can perform to ensure our quality. Because of services being capped, sometimes, you may find that we have a waiting list for some services. If you have to wait, know that it's worth the wait, knowing that you will get our best work.

Display. Just as in any retail operation, the way you display your wares will greatly impact your sales. Produce should be placed underneath a cover to protect it from the sun, but be sure to allow at least seven feet of head room. Display your prices prominently, and clearly identify the things that make your product special. Personalize your stand with signs to inform your customers.
Profit from you photos. If you're skilled with a camera, you can turn your photos into cash by selling them to stock image sites, such as Shutterstock.com. If the photos you submit are accepted, they can be downloaded by Shutterstock's subscribers and you can earn anywhere from 25 cents to $120 per image download. Other sites that accept photos from contributors include iStock, Dreamstime and Sqeeqee.
With the ability to rank organically in search engine queries, bloggers excel at increasing a seller's conversions. The blogger samples the product or service and then writes a comprehensive review that promotes the brand in a compelling way, driving traffic back to the seller's site. The blogger is awarded for his or her influence spreading the word about the value of the product, helping to improve the seller's sales.
If you can find and restore items like furniture and appliances, you can make a substantial amount of money. You can acquire the items on Craigslist, or even at garage sales or estate sales, restore them, and then list them for sale on the site. You may also be able to market certain items on eBay, particularly if they are small, unusual, but high in price.
One big difference between SkimLinks and VigLinks, however, is that once you're approved by the company, you can choose to work with any merchant or program on its platform. SkimLinks has also published a white paper discussing its partnership with Buzzfeed, giving SkimLinks a lot of credibility. SkimLinks also has a higher tier of vetted merchants called "Preferred Partner" and "VIP" that both pay higher commissions than standard merchants.
Mechanical Turk is Amazon's take on micro-jobs. These are small miniscule-jobs that you can do for other people, which they call HITs, or Human Intelligence Tasks. These are super simple tasks that anyone can do. Some examples are listing off some URLs with certain kinds of images for one cent, or recording a few phrases with a microphone for 6 cents.
How to Get It: Customer service is the biggest work-at-home field, with companies including Spiegel, Hilton, Best Western, HSN, 1-800-FLOWERS and many others using at-home reps. Fill out an application with staffing companies such as Arise, Alpine Access, VIPdesk, LiveOps, and Convergys, all of which vet the companies who are hiring through them. If you need benefits, search through a staffing company that will hire you as an employee (Alpine Access, VIPdesk and Convergys do this) rather than an independent contractor. If you're a contractor, you may be asked to pay a small fee (between $15 and $35) for a background check. While a fee can be a sign of a scam, independent contractors are responsible for their own expenses.

Curriculum Intent
Within the Art and Photography department, we aim to offer the opportunity to explore a variety of art forms and processes in depth with a structure which supports and encourages all pupils. We aim to enable pupils to develop the ability to think and act creatively, learning and developing skills and knowledge appropriate to each assessment objective.
Pupils are encouraged to develop the practical and perceptual skills they need in all areas of Art and Photography.
Programmes of Study
Key Stage 3- Years 7 and 8 (Art and Design)
Key Stage 3 is focused on developing skills and understanding through the formal elements of art; these are incorporated in to different themes in Years 7 and 8 which allow students to explore a range of materials, techniques and creative activities. Themes studied range from; natural forms, mythical creatures, illuminated letters, mask, movement & portrait. Relevant areas of Art History are studied within each project, allowing students to experience the work of a variety of artists from different genres; these are used as the inspiration for students' own work. There is a strong emphasis on engaging with the work of other artists and for students to develop their critical analysis skills alongside their practical work.
Key Stage 4- Years 9, 10 and 11 (Fine Art and Photography)
GCSE Art and Design provides students with a wide range of creative, exciting and stimulating opportunities to explore their interests in ways that are both personally relevant and developmental in nature. There are seven endorsements that make up the GCSE Art and design specification. Here at Parklands we offer two of these, Fine Art and Photography.
This two unit specification enables students to develop their ability to actively engage in the processes of Art and Design – to build creative skills through learning and doing, to develop imaginative and intuitive ways of working and develop knowledge and understanding of media, materials and technologies in historical and contemporary contexts, societies and cultures.

Careers leading on from Art
How parents can support their children
Key Stage 3 Students are all expected to receive homework every fortnight. Students are given a structure and timeline to work to. They will be given regular deadlines to meet and should use class time and homework time to complete all the set tasks in the given time.
Key Stage 4 students are expected to do an additional 2 hours per week outside of the classroom. Parents could familiarise themselves and their child with published deadlines using the 'My homework app' on the school website, and ensure that these are consistently met. Parents should try to ensure that a quiet place is available for homework to be completed without distraction and that their child produces the best work that they are capable of. Parents should contact their child's Art or Photography teacher with any concerns via school email.
Parents can also support their child's progress by providing Art and Photographic materials at home. If students choose Photography at GCSE then they are all expected to have their own digital camera, USB stick and SIM card. It would be very beneficial for Fine Art students to have good quality materials to use at home such as a range of drawing pencils, a good set of watercolour paints and IT resources to access, artist links, homework and regular formative assessment from their teacher.
Learning Challenge 'Big Art' 2019
Etching Workshop 2019
Students from Mr Wood's year 9 GCSE art class took part in an etching workshop at Newman college on Tuesday 25th June. Students had the opportunity to push their creative skills by learning a new art process. All students were fully engaged and loved the experience.

Knoxville and Maryville TN
Data compiled by the American Academy of Prosthodontists estimates that there are 40 million people in the United States who have lost all their natural teeth. Are you one of them? If so, you may think that dentures are your only option. However, the expert dentists in Maryville at Crestview Dental Care can restore your smile in a single dental appointment through an innovative procedure known as Teeth in a Day.
What is Teeth in a Day?
Also known as the All-on-4 implant system, Teeth in a Day entails installing an arch of replacement teeth, which is anchored by dental implants that are placed in strategic locations to anchor the dental bridge and provide support. Your new replacement teeth will be fixed in the mouth; that means they won't slip or shift the way dentures can. You will have a permanent, stable bite, and your replacement teeth will feel and function just like natural teeth.
The beneFits of Teeth in a Day
For decades, traditional dentures were the go-to solution when it came to helping patients who were living with significant tooth loss.
However, dentures can cause issues, including:
- Decreased chewing ability
- Interference with speech
- Inability to taste food well
- Mouth sores
- Loose fit
- Dentures may not fit well, become floppy, or fall out
If you choose the Teeth In a Day procedure, this means you no longer have to deal with messy denture adhesives or be embarrassed about a loose-fitting dental prosthesis. Teeth In a Day provides you with a stable bite in which you can enjoy food again, talk with ease, and feel comfortable in your new set of teeth. With your new smile, you can enjoy social gatherings without any fear that your teeth will fall out.
What can you expect from Teeth in a Day
To begin, one of the expert implant dentists at Crestview Dental Care will place four implants in each dental arch. These will serve as anchors for the arch of replacement teeth, which is attached to those implants. At Crestview Dental Care, we use cutting-edge materials and technology to ensure your smile is functional and cosmetically beautiful. You will be smiling confidently again in no time! The length of the procedure varies, but it usually takes 2 ½ hours per dental arch to place the implants. We make sure to administer a local anesthetic before beginning the work so that you will not feel any discomfort during the procedure. Crestview Dental Care also offers sedation dentistry using nitrous oxide, which can calm you and diminish any feelings of anxiety you may experience pertaining to dental work. Any discomfort following the procedure usually can be managed by taking over-the-counter pain relievers.
Teeth in a Day in Knoxville
You don't have to live with tooth loss any longer. Whether you have already lost all or most of the teeth on a dental arch or a dentist declared that your teeth are failing beyond repair, Crestview Dental Care can restore your smile, your confidence, and your chewing ability through the Teeth in a Day procedure. To find out more, schedule a consultation today by calling (865) 982-1700. We are happy to care for patients from Knoxville, Maryville, and surrounding areas in Tennessee.

North Dakota Open Educational Resources Initiative: A System-wide Success Story « WCET Frontiers
lkfitz's bookmarks 2016-08-24
"The North Dakota University System Open Educational Resources Initiative is a 3-phased plan hinging upon a unique collaboration among the North Dakota legislature, the University System Office, and the faculty at public institutions across the state. At the intersection of these three entities are change leaders who have come together for a common goal of improving higher education by reducing textbook costs for students. A 2015 post previewed this work, and this post outlines the plan, the people, and the product."

The CAW says it is aware of and is handling the health related complaints pouring in from neighbours of the wind turbine on its property in Port Elgin.
As we told you yesterday… the protest group STOP has collected more than a dozen formal complaints …everything from nose bleeds and headaches to night sweats and insomnia.
STOP says the turbine was shut off just hours after the complaints… and has been off for the past three days.
However CAW national co ordinator Ken Bondy tells Dock News that's just part of the usual start up…and is not related to the complaints…which he says they are dealing with…as required by the province…
Bondy denies they've shut it down based on the complaints..
STOP wants all sides to sit down and fix the problem.
Bondy says they don't engage protest groups but insists they're doing everything they're supposed to … in order to comply with regulations..
The problem with the turbine is that its much closer to homes than is currently allowed under provincial legislation because it was approved BEFORE the green energy act came into effect.

If you are planning to buy a new garage door, you'll have the option of either a roller garage door or a sectional garage door. Most of us can't distinguish between the two. This article will shed light on the differences between the 2 types of garage door and also help you understand their advantages and drawbacks.
Let's compare the main differences between Roller Garage Doors and Sectional Garage Doors.
Roller door has a compact door design that fits into any and every shape of garage opening either inside, in front or in between. While Roller Garage doors need adequate space for accommodating the roll, a sectional garage door on the other hand needs space within the garage for the horizontal tracks to run. Both roller garage doors and sectional garage doors open and close vertically.
Sectional garage doors offer a higher level of security. If it is installed properly, it provides maximum levels of protection if forced entry is attempted. Though sectional garage doors are secure their only drawback is that they are not suitable for every opening as they require clear horizontal space along the ceiling and to the back of your garage.
The design and mechanism of Sectional Doors make them highly secure. They have door panels fixed behind a strong steel structure. Usually it is five to six rollers on each side on a standard door that provides lateral resistance.
Roller Garage Doors basically have only one design of horizontal lines but they come in a wide array of Colorbond surface finishes to choose from.
Sectional garage doors are very trendy. They have several designs and come in variety of colours too along with modern steel, aluminium or woodgrain timber finishes.
Roller garage doors generally have a maximum width of approximately 5.5 metres and 5 metres high while sectional doors formed in steel panels can be manufactured to a maximum width of 7 metres and a height of 4 meters.
Roller garage doors are spring assisted for manual operation. They are also operated electrically with the help of a garage door opener placed within the drum which requires a minimum of 125mm side room.
The sectional garage door is mainly manufactured as a automatic door due to the weight of the door. It uses a torsion or tension spring mechanism to lift the door panels effortlessly throughout the operation. The springs are installed at the top front of the door.
Both Roller Garage Doors and Sectional Garage Doors have their own unique advantages as well as few disadvantages. A summary of specifications is listed below to help you chose the right garage door for your site.

The organisation's strategic partnership development manager Rowen Ravera said the word "homeless" translated as "hopeless", evidenced by a focus on traditional short-term welfare relief, a cup of soup and blanket approach.
"For World Homeless Day, U-turn is highlighting the importance of long-term rehabilitation through a photo campaign of graduates from its programme. While the photos are designed to stand alone, the graduates' stories are available as needed," she said.
"As a community, if we collectively agree to give responsibly by putting people in need with support services and rehabilitation programmes, we can change their lives and turn back the tide on homelessness, said Ravera.
Another organisation, Ubuntu Circle of Courage, said the city's homeless must be part of initiatives to aid them rather than fine them.

Have you ever watched WWE? Then you know about John Cena and "The Rock". The first thing that comes to your attention is their ripped peps and bulging biceps. Their sleek and brisk bodies embody their legacies as professional athletes. But those bodies didn't just come out nowhere. Those bodies are the impressive results of steroids.
Your Choice of Steroid
With the possibility to buy steroids online, one may have different purposes. But most of these users have one common intention in mind. They desire to build a body that will make faces turn in their direction and stare in awe and jealousy. Such a sleek body is the result of many phases of training, dieting and most importantly steroid routine.
Most athletes divide their workout routine into two phases; the bulking phase and the cutting phase. Both of these phases are entirely different. They also both involve different workout routines, diets and steroids. But in the end, they both bring about a figure that makes people stare in disbelief.
You're Bulking Booster
For the bulking phase, you will be looking to gain as much body mass as possible. Ideally, you would want as much as that mass to be muscle mass. In this phase, most people opt for high calorie and protein diets. They exercise vigorously to convert as much of that protein into muscle mass. But as always, most of these efforts are useless without some form of supplement.
DECA is a powerful bulking steroid and is extremely popular nowadays. DECA may not be one of the more powerful strength boosting steroids. However, this steroid is a significant performance booster and enhances the muscle endurance and stamina of the body. This supplement to your performance will enable you to convert your calories into muscle mass more effectively. Not only this but the relief that DECA provides is invaluable to many.
Your Cutting Choice
The cutting cycle is considered the more important of the two periods by many. In this phase, the extra fat that was obtained during the bulking phase is stripped off the body. This loss of fat makes the lean muscle mass appear more prominent. You can buy steroids online or offline and find that a steroid will significantly enhance the rate at which they lose fat while retaining the precious lean muscle mass they built.
In this phase, you might want to opt for a steroid like Primobolan. Primobolan is a very popular steroid nowadays, and it has its reasons for success. Primobolan shines during the cutting cycle as it retains the lean muscle mass and boosts recovery. Primobolan also immensely increases muscle performance and energy in the body.
The Variety
The market is vast, and the race is vigorous. Athletes all over the world are competing for the top spots. Without a sleek body, attention for the top spots in the industry is almost impossible. Steroids till date remain the prime factor to the success of athletes. The number of steroids out there is uncountable, and numerous are promising. So good luck choosing, you'll need it.

In this week's Ridgefield Press
- Budget voters helped approve a 1.92% tax increase Tuesday. The school budget, which received the most 'no' votes, passed by a much wider margin then it did in 2016.
- An untimely death on Danbury Road is being ruled as a suspected drug overdose, police say. The incident took the life of a 22-year-old Ridgefield man.
- There's a food drive this weekend — and it's as simple as leaving goods in your mailbox Saturday. The mailman will do the rest!
- Run Like a Mother celebrates 10 years Sunday at Yanity. Hopefully, the rain will hold off this year.
- The world's cheesiest pizza will have its lineage traced back to Ridgefield once the Guinness Book of World Records makes an official ruling on the 109-cheese pizza that was crafted last Thursday.
- The sewer plant renovation plans that were pitched two weeks ago received public hearing earlier this month. The bottom line is what scared residents the most: $42 million.
- A local rocket club will compete for a national championship.
- They're not the only club going to nationals: RHS' debate team is also headed for national in Hartford today — Thursday, May 11.
- Speaking of Hartford, on the editorial page, Ridgefield state representative John Frey talks about tolls and the ongoing debate going on between Democrats and Republicans in the state's capitol.
- Budget voting might be over but that doesn't mean it isn't time to look at the importance — and future — of the Annual Town Meeting, one columnist posits. Should we bother to even have one if it was conducted the way last Monday's meeting went down at the Playhouse?
- The Ridgefield High School honor roll is on page 8.
- The town has four new restaurants — and possibly a fifth — opening up over the next couple of months. They're led by some familiar faces; and some not so familiar faces.

It's always tough to see a player get hurt right before the season starts, but USC CB Josh Shaw has no regrets about putting his nephew's safety ahead of his own.
Shaw was standing on a second-floor balcony at a family gathering when he saw his 7-year-old nephew fall into a pool, and knowing the nephew couldn't swim, Shaw immediately sprang into action. Shaw jumped off the balcony, spraining both of his ankles in the process, but still made it to the pool, pulled his nephew to safety, and climbed out under his own power.
Tests at a nearby hospital revealed two high-ankle sprains, and there's no timetable for his return. USC HC Steve Sarkisian is disappointed to be missing one of his seniors, but completely understands Shaw's decision:
"That was a heroic act by Josh, putting his personal safety aside. But that's the kind of person he is. It is unfortunate that he'll be sidelined for a while and we will miss his leadership and play, but I know he'll be working hard to get back on the field as soon as possible."
Shaw, for his part, says he'd do the same thing again even if it wasn't for a family member:
"I would do it again for whatever kid it was, it did not have to be my nephew," Shaw said today. "My ankles really hurt, but I am lucky to be surrounded by the best trainers and doctors in the world. I am taking my rehab one day at a time, and I hope to be back on the field as soon as possible."

Spacious Canadian House Design Mixing Wood and Concrete with Natural Light
Living room design with large windows, concrete walls and wooden ceiling
Canadian architect Henri Cleinge built a house for himself in Montreal with concrete walls inside and out, wooden surfaces and lots of large windows inviting natural light into contemporary, stylish and warm home interiors.
Two story La Maison Beaumont residence comprises two concrete volumes. Architect and homeowner Henri Cleinge, www.cleinge.com/ raised one of the concrete volumes on a Corten steel base to create an entrance on the ground floor and an extra story at the top. Corten steel was also used to define the window frames and parts of exterior walls.
The cedar ceiling designs and maple staircase design contrast with beautiful wooden walls, adding light and dark wood colors to interior design. Walnut wood has been used for kitchen design.
Inspired to create a home to be experienced by all five senses, the Beaumont concrete house evolved as an exploration project. The design, understated, is situated in a mixed use neighborhood where residential duplexes coexist with small to midsize industrial buildings. Despite the projects integration, a number of features distinguish the project from other buildings in the area, #8211; the architect says.
The house most noticeable feature is exterior walls which are built out of concrete exposed to the interior and the outside, with insulation in the middle. Combining rich primary materials with an abundance of natural light, the house design looks dramatic and contemporary.

92-year-old beaten up by mother and four others with a brick for bumping into her daughter
The woman reportedly said that after the mother's assault on the old man, another four men joined her in beating the grandfather.
A 92-year-old man was allegedly assaulted, including being beaten with a brick, by a woman and four men for bumping into the woman's daughter while taking a stroll around his Los Angeles neighborhood.
The nonagenarian, identified as Rodolfo Rodriguez from Mexico, was reportedly walking through his neighborhood around 7 pm when the incident occurred. Rodriguez's family said that the grandad accidentally bumped into a young girl while he was trying to get around her.
The girl's mother, who the cops are looking for and is yet to be identified, reportedly noticed this and became furious. She allegedly shoved Rodriguez to the ground, picked up a brick and hit him in the face with it, according to the Bee.
92 year-old Rodolfo Rodriguez was visiting his family in LA from Mexico when he was brutally assaulted on July 4th. A witness who intervened said that the woman who hit him with a brick was yelling "Go back to Mexico" to the grandfather. It was only his 2nd day in the US. pic.twitter.com/MPu91HFEAQ— Simar (@sahluwal) July 7, 2018
The horrifying incident was caught on a cell phone camera by a woman in the area. The woman reportedly said that after the mother's assault on the old man, four other men joined her in beating the grandfather.
92-year-old Rodolfo Rodriguez was told to go back to Mexico —but not before he was brutally beaten until he looked like this. #civility https://t.co/xF3YQHJ03w pic.twitter.com/9AbRpgHUFu— Laura Martínez ® (@miblogestublog) July 9, 2018
While talking to Sacramento Bee, the witness who took a clip of the incident said that she heard the mother telling the grandfather to go back to his own country.
"Go back to your country, why are you here?" the witness quoted the mother as saying.
The witness also said that she confronted the woman asking her why she attacked the man and then called the police. The mother reportedly told her that she attacked Rodriguez as he had tried to touch her daughter.
MAGGOTS in the GOP said, "DEMS "declared a civil war" over the 4th of July! This is Rodolfo Rodriguez, 92yr, visiting family for the 2nd time in Los Angeles on July 4th! A woman threw a brick into his face, yelled "Go back to Mexico"!— Nanette JWC (@nanettejw) July 8, 2018
This is Trump's America! His CIVIL WAR! pic.twitter.com/o7d20uEJe8
The witness, who was present during the entire incident, shot back saying that was a lie, according to reports.
Rodriguez, who does not understand English, is reportedly a legal resident of the United States. Reports state that he doesn't understand why he was attacked by the mother in his neighborhood.
A picture of Rodriquez, released by his family after the incident, showed an elderly man with a badly-bruised face and blood dripping down his nose. Another picture of the nonagenarian showed him lying down in a hospital bed with bruises on his nose, mouth and cheek and swollen eyes.

Rodriquez's family also released a statement, saying that the grandfather had suffered a broken cheekbone and broken ribs.
Rodriguez's grandson Erik Mendoza, while talking to KCBS, said: "Who would do this to anybody? A 92-year-old senior citizen, what can he do to anybody? There's no harm that he meant."
According to the KTLA, police are looking for the woman and the four who were captured attacking the 92-year-old.
Deputy D'Angelo Robinson said: "We are concerned, especially with the type of crime they committed. There was what appears to be a four-year-old child there who witnessed the entire thing. We can't let these kind of people like that out in our streets."

A GoFundMe account has been sent up by Rodriguez's family for his medical treatment and the page has raised over $33,500 so far.
The page reads: "On July 4th at around 7pm, my grandfather Rodolfo Rodriguez whose 92 years of age was going for his daily walk around the block when he was assaulted by and African American lady and five other guys. He is doing really bad, has a lot of bruises on his face and a broken cheekbone."
The page, in three days, received double the amount of the fund goal originally set up at $15,000.

My name is Bob Windmill and I am the Managing Director of Windmill Insight Solutions Ltd.My passion is helping people and organisations become better at what they want to do. My blog is a way of sharing with you the sorts of projects I am involved in.
I also write about how you can help yourself or your organisation become better at what you do.
Of course, what "better" means is an entirely different discussion, but I will write about that on another day.
In today's topic I will talk about how a business works with money, the key money related terms needed in business and the pitfalls that await business owners and employees that don't have a sensible grasp of basic business finance.
I picked this topic because money is the lifeblood of every business, even not-for-profits, and it is vital that both business owners and employees understand how it woks and how to avoid the pitfalls that await the financially naive.Continue reading "Doing well at work: Understanding money and business"

With guest speaker Mike Peters MBE formerly of Universal Products Manufacturing Ltd. (UPL)
Whether you're already an established entrepreneur or just toying with the idea of starting your own business, you want to give Mike Peters a listen.
Mikes' own journey started over 40 years ago when he started UPL (Universal Products Manufacturing Ltd.) – a manufacturer of pharmaceutical and personal care products. When he sold UPL in 2014 the company's turnover had grown from £79,000 per annum to £40 million.
Of course, growing a business to such a size is never easy. There have been difficulties, sure, but the rewards that such an enterprise can bring can be quite surprising. Mike offers some advice based from his own experience of how to overcome the challenges of running an enterprise.
What's more, Mike offers advice on how to do so ethically and with decency.
This event gives you the opportunity to network with like-minded people in an informal and relaxed atmosphere. A buffet (with vegetarian options) will be available.
Mike Peters started UPL in 1976 with only 4 staff members. In 2014 when he sold the company, he was responsible for 300 staff members, all contributing to a turnover of £40 million. Alongside UPL, he was also the co-owner of Link Pharmaceuticals and a shareholder in Levity Crop Science. A
cross all areas, Mike is well prepared, competitive and fair. He is lauded for the enthusiasm he brings to business, receiving an MBE in 2013 for Services to Industry and Charity. Lancastrian of the year in 2016 and eleven times motor sports championship, Mike's certainly an interesting guy.
Please note that photographs will be taken at this event and on arrival guests will be asked to sign a disclaimer agreeing that the University of Central Lancashire may use images in publications and advertising media, such as brochures, information leaflets, posters and other formats in the promotion of the University. The images may be used in these formats without further permission or payment, for the foreseeable future.
This workshop is partially funded by the U Start project to support students, graduates and university staff to unlock their entrepreneurial potential and become enterprise ready.
Book below to reserve your place on this event.

If your New Year's resolution was to quit smoking, it's probably time to consider ways to improve your chances of success.
For starters, list your reasons for wanting to quit, suggest experts from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Want to improve your health? Save money? Smell and taste food better?
Those are common reasons smokers cite for wanting to kick the habit -- something that nearly 70 percent of adult smokers say they want to do, according to the FDA.
Reviewing your reasons for wanting to quit can help you when you get the urge to smoke.
Also, don't be too hard on yourself. Quitting smoking can be difficult so you might have to try a few times before you're successful. Research has shown that trying but failing to quit can lead to more attempts in the future, and that it often takes multiple attempts to finally quit smoking.
The agency also notes that there are a number of FDA-approved products that can help you quit smoking.
These include nicotine replacement therapy products. They provide controlled amounts of nicotine, to reduce smoking withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Two types are available by prescription -- a nicotine nasal spray and a nicotine inhaler. Three types can be bought over-the-counter -- nicotine gum, skin patches and lozenges.
Their effectiveness can vary, but these products can double your chances of successfully quitting smoking, according to the FDA.
There are also FDA-approved prescription drug products without nicotine that can help you quit smoking. Just be sure to read and carefully follow the directions for prescribed smoking-cessation products and talk to your doctor if you have questions.
Anyone younger than 18 who wants to quit smoking should talk to a health care professional about whether they should use smoking-cessation products, according to the FDA.

Cleve In The Eve will extend a tip of the hat over the next several days to the 38th annual Greater Peoria Sports Hall of Fame induction class.
Next up in the batting order is Mike McDonald, a man who built a huge legacy in area baseball up to his death in 2015.
McDonald played and coached the game. He played third base for the 1964 Pekin High School team that reached the IHSA semifinals. He went to play college and pro ball, the latter in the St. Louis Cardinals farm system. Eventually, he settled in for a 24-year career as Morton High School's baseball coach.
Here's the body of work for the man who taught those around him to do things the right way:
• Played outfield at Canton Community College (now Spoon River College) where he batted .455 and .320.
• Finished his college career at Bradley University, where he played third base for the Braves 1968 Missouri Valley Conference Championship team.
• Post-college, he was briefly an assistant coach at Bergan High School and played ball in the Sunday Morning League.
• McDonald turned pro when he was signed by the St. Louis Cardinals in 1970. He played that season for the Cards' class-A team at St. Petersburg of the Florida State League. He went on to reach the class-AA level with Arkansas in the Dixie Association in 1971. McDonald hit .225 with a home run in 126 career pro games.
• Accepted a teaching position at Morton High School and was a baseball and football coach. Served as Morton's head baseball coach for 24 years.
• His Morton teams won 452 games, including 20+ win seasons 10 times, seven conference titles, four regional championships, two sectionals, and two state finals appearances.
• In 1984 he guided the Potters to an IHSA Class AA championship, and in 1994 Morton finished runner-up.
• Coached for six years at Illinois Central College as an assistant baseball coach and for two years at Eureka College as head baseball coach.
• Served as an associate scout with the Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals and worked at several baseball camps.
That's all for Cleve In The Eve on Saturday, March 9, 2019.
Here's your sports quote of the day:
"I'd walk through hell in a gasoline suit to play baseball."
— Pete Rose
