In 2017, there were almost 90 million pet dogs in the US. Which has opened up a huge opportunity to make money online as a dog watcher or sitter. Specialized sites like Rover or Care.com connect pet owners with pet walkers, sitters, and boarding houses to help look after their best friends when they're at work or on a trip. If you're an animal lover, you can make extra money and get to spend some quality time with a furry friend.
If so, you might want to consider running your own online thrift shop. Whether you focus on fashion especially, another category of product, or prefer to amass collections of interesting items from all over the internet (but especially eBay!), there's always a strong demand for items with a story. Give your store a compelling, memorable identity, and it will be seen as much more than a simple consignment store.
Jack up your prices. If you're providing a skill, service or product that is in high demand and low supply, and you're making the most of your time, you should be making good money. Unfortunately, there are many people who are too humble or fearful to demand that they get paid accordingly. It's the pushovers in life who get taken advantage of and exploited, so if you think you might be one of them, learn how to stop being a people pleaser. If you work for someone else, ask for a pay raise or get a promotion, and if none of that pans out, revisit your career options as described previously. If you're self-employed, the first thing to do is to make sure your customers and clients pay up on time--this alone can substantially improve your income. Check your prices and rates against those of your competitors--are you undercutting them? Why? If you're providing a superior product or service, you should be getting at least the average, unless your profitability depends on mass production, in which case you're probably making a lot of money and wouldn't be reading this article anyway!
The problems were analyzed and confronted in two ways. In 1980 the National Alliance of Homebased Businesswomen was founded to combat the isolation expressed by the respondents as well as to fight the laws which made conducting their businesses difficult.[6][7][8][9] Then Women Working Home: The Homebased Guide and Directory by Marion Behr and Wendy Lazar was published.[10] It contained the stories of many women who ran home-based businesses throughout the country in many diverse fields, as well as information on business formation, conduct and compliance with the law. It sold 50,000 copies. During this time many national magazines wrote about these issues.[11][12][13][14][15] At the White House Conference on Small Business in 1986, one of the major resolutions was a recommendation favoring lifting restrictions on home-based business.[16]
Great post. My husband has been selling used books on-line for 10 years…It's not enough to fully support our family of 6, but it does afford us a lot of flexibility. We both work other odds and ends spot jobs and it ends up working out. We have also had the flexibility to be volunteer managers at a church camp in the summer. (Right now the camp can not afford a manager) I'm pioneering a women's conference and event ministry. I've always been very greatful for the freedom we have. My husband helps at the kids schools, apointments are easy to make, and the stress is less. It's been a sacrifice in some ways but worth the gains in time and flexibility for sure.
Driving for one of the two globally expanding app-centric taxi alternative services, Uber or Lyft can still be a fairly lucrative way to earn money as a side business idea on nights and weekends—working only when you want. But before you dive head first into this side business idea, do your homework and calculate the costs of extra gas, mileage, tires, wear & tear and usage on your vehicle—it's not a guaranteed business idea that'll turn a huge profit every weekend.
Do you have baby items taking up space in your garage, but you aren't ready to part with them yet? After all, you might want another kid . . . maybe one day. Instead of selling that high chair or baby jumper, why not rent them? Oh, we're serious. On websites like goBaby, cribs can go for $10 to $50 a day, and strollers can collect $15 to $40 a day.(7)
It's not the sort of side business idea that's covered in glory, but someone needs to make sure all the numbers add up at the end of the year. Every business and most individuals need someone with the domain expertise to help prepare tax returns, especially time or resource-strapped small business owners. Majo Jacinto in his Udemy course provides an in-depth foundational understanding of how to prepare tax returns (and stay current with ever-changing laws) that'll certify you with tax prep skills in as little as a few hours of training and practice. Then once tax season rolls around you'll be able to charge an average of $229 per return as a freelance tax preparer with this side business idea, according to CNBC.
Presently, executives, managers, and even entrepreneurs employ virtual personal assistant services to cut down their workload affordably and effectively. Far more affordable than taking on a new full-time employee to help with tasks, virtual personal assistants are effectively temporary employees who help relieve the burden of overworked professionals.
Anyone can sell goods on Amazon, provided you have products to sell (or buy low, then resell). If you're the type to hit all the local garage sales each weekend, there's all sorts of valuable things that can be resold online as a side business idea. If you want to step your Amazon selling game up, check out this detailed guide to Amazon and eBay retail arbitrage on Entrepreneur featuring an interview with Julie Becker and several drop-shippers who've grown this home based business idea from side business idea into a lucrative money-maker.
If so, then consider putting your knack for arts, crafts, and design to use as the manager of an ecommerce store. So long as you believe your creations can find a market and sell at a profitable price, there's very little stopping you from signing up as a seller on a site like Etsy and carving out your niche. While it might be a tough business, there's plenty of wisdom out there to learn from—and it certainly fits on our list of home business ideas, especially while you're small!
If you already have a website that's driving in targeted traffic, a great way to make passive income from the content you're already creating as an easy side business idea, is through affiliate marketing. ShareASale, Rakuten, Clickbank, and Skimlinks are a few of the best affiliate networks and tools that can help you make money from the content you already produce, thus amplifying your side business idea income. Check out this extensive list by Justine Grey, covering the 59 Best Affiliate Programs for Business Bloggers to get some inspiration on how other bloggers are growing affiliate blogs from side business idea to full-time company.
With personal finance software you can schedule automatic payments and transfers between all of your imported accounts. Automatic transfers will help to make sure you have the necessary funds in the right account to ensure all bills are paid on the appropriate date. Late fees are annoying and do nothing but cost you money. It's time that you said goodbye to them once and for all.
The Ibotta app gives you cash back on the groceries you already buy. Some deals are brand specific, while others give you cash just for purchasing a certain type of item, like a loaf of bread from any brand. Choose your deals before you check out, then submit a picture of your receipt and get paid via Venmo, PayPal, or gift cards. Sign up with Ibotta to claim your $10 welcome bonus.
Yes, you can turn your car into a money-maker by driving for Uber and Lyft, but there are other ways to convert mileage into money as a clever side business idea. One way is to do vehicle advertising, a potential side income source of anywhere between $100 to $600 per month. Whether you own a compact sedan or a full-sized bus, your vehicle's exterior space is prime real estate for ads. Check Wrapify, carvertise, and similar sites for more details about getting started with this business idea and for being paired up with local advertisers.
To start this kind of business, you will not need that much money. In fact, all you would need to do is create a website that advertises your business. Your website needs to be professionally done if anyone is to take you seriously. It also needs to rank well on Google because you cannot say that you will help them rank highly while your own website is languishing in the dark corners of the internet. You will also need to actually know a thing or two about SEO.
Babysitting isn't just for teens. Everyone from college students to recent retirees can make money watching other people's children. Word-of-mouth referrals from friends and family are still a great way to get started, but you can also create a profile on Care.com or Sittercity to expand your reach. Note any specialized skills, such as CPR certifications or experience with special needs children, to make yourself more marketable.
Animal lovers can start dog walking or dog-sitting with apps such as Rover, Wag or DogVacay, or by sharing services on community boards or by word of mouth. Compensation will vary by location, app, frequency and the rates you charge. Users of these apps typically set their rates and work through the app to schedule boarding and walking requests from dog owners.
Yes, even the PowerPoint presentation requires outside consulting every now and then—especially if it's not your forte. I know I would happily outsource the visual layout of my presentation decks for work meetings, investor pitches and lectures. Tobias Schelle of 24Slides is living proof that you can turn your skills at slideshow presentation design into a legit side business idea—and potentially earn up to $20 a slide for your time and talents.
Case in point: securities and commodities brokers, who stand atop the list with an average pretax margin of 14%. While confidence in the markets is shaken and competition from E*Trade and Charles Schwab is stiff, trusted brokers able to develop a book of business by giving financial advice (not simply executing trades) can still do well. All it takes is a computer, a speedy Internet hookup and some trading software from the likes of Automatic Data Processing . Typical commissions: 2% to 3% of the value of each trade.
Choose your niche and check for demand: The golden course combination is when you can find an in-demand niche that aligns with your skills and unique experiences. A great way to do this is to use Google Trends and Google's Keyword Planner to look for average monthly search volume for keywords related to your proposed course content. Are people actively looking for high-quality information about this subject? Of course, if you're already creating content for a blog, coaching service, or a site like Medium, you can test demand this way for free just like Bryan did.
What this means is that you're able to monetize your blog, but only by using WordAds or Blogger's Adsense ads. WordPress does allow affiliate marketing on their free platform — as long as you're in compliance with their terms. Using a free platform limits your earning potential, but it gives you the initial foundation for building an audience. Once you have a little bit of money rolling in, you can easily transfer your blog over to the paid version of WordPress where you will be able to fully monetize your blog and start making money.
If you don't mind doing other people's chores, then TaskRabbit may be the right side business idea for you. Earn a little side money doing odd jobs like walking your neighbor's dog or mowing Mr. Smith's lawn. Running errands not your style? Tell that to the top taskers on the portal who reportedly earn as much as $7000 a month, making this a full-time business idea for some.
Affiliate marketing, a sort of product placement, will let you receive nice checks from companies in return for advocating for their goods and services. Although this might sound a bit iffy, if you truly do recommend that your readers try out these products, then it doesn't need to come across as sales-y or insincere. Readers will understand that you need to make money somehow, and many will appreciate your recommendations if they're accurate.
Consulting is such an incredible market because it can be associated with nearly anything and everything of learning value. Whether it is expertise in antiquities, crafting, photography, art, cars, tools, home improvement, beauty, makeup, handbags, accessories, fashion, hair care, wellness, post-birth support, and education, consulting is merely comprised of in-depth know-how and an ability to instruct.
Virtual assistants (VAs) provide a wide variety of "virtual" services to other businesses including administrative, marketing and technical support from a home office. My local window cleaner, for example, uses a VA to answer his calls and manage his calendar while he's busy on-site. VAs are growing in popularity, too, as firms look to cut costs and outsource administrative functions. If you are organized and have an administrative background, this might be for you. Start with your own connections or take advantage of the services of a VA organization or association who can help you get started and connect you with clients.

After almost five years of adventures, it is finally time to upgrade. My Canon EOS 6D Mark I has served me well, and it's been a reliable companion that I'm sorry to consign to bubblewrap, parcel tape, and eBay. Over the years, I've become quite attached to it.
In early 2014, I was in need of an upgrade. My 5D Mark I was starting to feel dated, and I began the long process of researching my options. Having sunk money into a couple of L lenses, stepping away from Canon's ecosystem felt impossible. My choice seemed to be between the 7D Mark I, the 5D Mark III, and Canon's first foray into a stripped-down, lightweight, full-frame body: the 6D.
This was not an easy choice. The 7D meant not only compromising on the width of my beloved wide angle lens, but also stepping down from a full frame which, for whatever reason, felt unthinkable. The 5D Mark III, notably bigger than my Mark I, offered a markedly better frame rate than the 6D, along with weather-sealing and the option of great quality video should I ever want to start shooting anything other than stills. By contrast, the 6D was smaller, lighter, and significantly less expensive — almost half the price. The 5D would give me 6 frames per second compared to the 6D's 4.5, and this was a big consideration. As a sports shooter, the higher frame rate would give me the luxury of being able to blast away at an athlete rather than rely on my timing. In the end, I opted for the 6D, figuring that I was used to a low frame rate and could rely on my timing and also save myself a small fortune. It felt like a brave choice.
I should add: photography is a part of what I do, and my tight budget and love of minimalism were also huge factors in making this decision. That said, there have certainly been moments where I've been frustrated at missing a shot, and some jobs have taken longer than they should, simply because I've had to ask someone to repeat a movement because I couldn't get my timing right. With that said, the smaller body has been hugely appreciated, permitting budget airline travel and much easier hikes up mountains and across strange lands.
In theory, a camera is just a tool, something we shouldn't get too attached to, but that's not my experience. As academic/photographer/explorer Bradley Garrett once wrote, the camera becomes "an appendage to the urban body." Effectively, this magic box becomes a part of us: it shapes what we see and how we see it, and its buttons fall under our fingers with such familiarity that it can seem like an extension of our hands.
The 6D, this ugly, somewhat soulless chunk of metal and plastic, is emotionally embedded within me, having been a consistent presence on countless adventures, not just accompanying me, but shaping how I've created my experiences. The 6D was a companion: it came with me when I climbed 150 meters up the side of a building, as well as being a motivation, it was there when I trekked alone half a day into the Bulgarian wilderness to find a remote village that has been abandoned for over 20 years, and it was a reason for driving twice around former Yugoslavia in search of communist monuments characterized by contradiction and mystery. With its brassing and slightly sticky thumb wheel (two hours of shooting in Norwegian snow came at a price), listing this lump on eBay feels almost like a betrayal.
As much as I'd like to put the 6D on a shelf, I can't justify it, and I need to put that money towards the cost of my shiny new Sony a7 III (an equally soulless lump). Fortunately, the excitement of my new camera is a good balance to the sadness I feel at seeing my old friend disappear in the post. It's not as if I don't have anything to remember it by — just tens of thousands of photographs.
So, goodbye, 6D. You were a fine friend, and I wish you well. I hope your new owner puts you to good use, perhaps exploring distant lands and stumbling into adventures with remarkable people. All the best.

Hey Andy I've just migrated from many, many years of Nikon to the new Sony A7R111. Don't waste time mourning your old kit. The Sony mirrorless is the best camera I've ever owned. When you consider that I started shooting at age 16 and I'm now 67, that's a helluva lot of cameras. Enjoy.
Canon 6D i loved this camera. Switched from 7D and that time High ISO performance was amazing. Now I am using 6D MK II and I love this camera too.
I bought a 6d yesterday, now trying to sell my 5d mk 1 ahah
I'm still shooting weddings with Nikon D4/D600 kombo, which would be 7 years old in few month... and I don't see any reason to replace both while they are working perfectly.
I went T3i -> 6D mk1, a little less than 3 years ago.
Just sold my T3i this year (250$ CDN) as I never needed it as a backup.
I lugged around a 6D for the last 4 years as my street photography camera. There are worse things. It can actually focus in low light with that one center focus point. It can get some decent shots under the right circumstances. While it isn't the best for video. I have done some semipro video stuff using the 6D. As the lenses are more than half the equation anyway.
But once I tried out a Fuji Xpro2 I was hooked. Going back to the clunky Canon approach to digital photography seemed like taking a time machine to the 90's. So I got an X-T3, which is a nice spec bump, but the immediacy of the camera means I'm getting better shots not because of specs, but because the camera is not fighting me.
This camera jumpstarted my career and I still use it for when I travel...a WORKHORSE
I owned a EOS-1D X, a 5D Mark III, and the 6D, and the one I kept of the three was the 6D. I never liked the image quality out of the 5D3 and the 1D X was overkill in terms of size and weight. I've shot plenty of sports with the 6D and it works just fine as any of my higher end stuff with careful handling.
I still use my 6D more than most of my other cameras. It just works and produces nice files. It has some quirks, like any camera, but when you know what those are (like use the center point only!) then you're all set.
I love the 6D - it's a no-nonsense workhorse of a camera. What a fitting tribute.
The big deal with the 6D was that the center point was the only one that was cross-type while the others were not. It's magic trick was that it could focus in low-light down to -3EV (that would be about the light level of a landscape lit by moonlight).
In theory, this autofocus system looked worse on paper than its main competition, the Nikon D600 with its 39 overall points and 9 cross-type points. Having owned both cameras and used both in weddings, sports, etc., while the D600 had the edge in overall image quality (and I found the body quite comfortable to hold), hands down the 6D out-focused it every time as long as I used the center-point on the 6D. The D600 was never amazing at focusing in any situation, at least for me.
I tend to look at cameras like I do my old cars: Is it worth more driving on the road or being a backup to my main car? Then I'd keep it. If there's a large financial gain to be had or if it mitigates the purchase price of the newer model, then it's probably worth it.
You've clearly gotten your money's worth out of it though! I'm glad to hear I'm not alone in shooting sports with a 6D. People on the sidelines with me always thought that was weird but I was making more money than a lot of them with this camera.
There is something special about 6D
I hope you will reconsider selling it. Given your history with it, the camera has much higher sentimental value than whatever its cash value. It will be worth even more to your 70-year-old self and to your children one day, if applicable. I'm definitely not advocating accrual of "stuff," but some inanimate objects do earn a permanent residency based on how they aided us during our journey through life, particularly if it was during a phase of significant growth.
I say give it 90 days. A little time to think generally yields the best decision. The resale value will certainly not change meaningfully in that time. And that's enough time for you to pretend you sold it and gauge whether or not you wish you hadn't.
I've had my 6D for about 2 years and I also just switched to Sony. I went for the a7riii and the image quality has absolutely blown me away! I thought it would be heartache switching from Canon as well, but Sony has definitely made it easy.
I'm replacing my 6D with a Fujifilm X-T3 but I'm not too sad about it, mostly because I got it as a backup to my 5D Mk III. I will be sad when I get rid of the Mk III. The time flies though... I can't believe how old they are already.
I still shoot with my Canon Eos 6D (even paid jobs) because I like the clean files it produces. I rather have a full frame sensor with a relative low megapixelcount for better dynamic range and less noise due to the bigger pixels. I would love to have a Canon 5D IV with a 22Mpix sensor and a good 4K codec and DPAF and dual cardslots. Add clean HDMI out to it and you have a beast of a camera. However, last saturday I was shooting the Gilets Jaunes in Paris and there I suddenly did have a problem that I could not change settings by using the "Q" button...that was pretty scary since you need to adjust setting pretty fast in those crazy environments where you have teargas bombs one moment with smoke everywhere and nothing 5 minutes later. Maybe the gasgranades influence the camera...I don't know, but something there affected the 6D. Still, I trust the Eos 6D in those situations because you can work with it blind almost (very intuïtive button layout).
Debated selling my 6D for a year now. Just can't do it. There's something about the sensor. Canon did a great job with it. I upgraded to a heavily discounted 5D3 shortly after the 5D4 hit the shelves and made the 6D available to our kids. They're rockin' it. I'm not particularly sentimental. Happy to sell unused stuff. But the 6D I think I'm going to keep.

Why does there have to be this type of disparity in between an ideal food plan in addition to a genuine a single. The real ones are all based on this restriction or that one particular. No carbs, no fats or higher calorie food items, all of your current most loved stuff is off limitations. As a substitute you've to stick to fruits, environmentally friendly leafy veggies, high fiber things, and foodstuff with very low calories.
Here's a fast survey of some quick weightloss diet program so you're able to familiarize you with them.
The Cabbage Soup food plan is famous. This food plan has a handful of variation but at its base is you eat cabbage soup once you are hungry and it'll fill you up so that you can continue to be within the diet regime. Though you happen to be doing the cabbage soup eating plan things such as oils and fats are off limits. This eating plan is simply one other facet of a total quick; it really is a reduced calorie eating plan and so you're able to reduce a lot of bodyweight on it Apple Diet.
The Sonoma diet may be the creation of Dr. Connie Gutterson. It can be superior in antioxidant loaded foodstuff, vegetables and fruits, blueberries, spinach, entire grains. Heck you can also use a minor pink wine with this particular one particular. It is additionally an exceedingly powerful diet regime so you can shed a great deal of pounds on it.

Subsequent may be the destructive calorie eating plan, in fact it is a lot more similar to a diet plan helper. On this food plan you eat food that have much less calories as opposed to amount of energy it will require to digest them. They are large fiber products, foods with minimal unwanted fat, vegetables and fruits. Roughage is a huge part with the damaging calorie food plan. You can't aid but lose weight for the reason that it will require additional energy to digest than you take in by ingesting it.

Niacin (vitamin B3) is believed to block cholesterol production in the body. Although niacin in prescription supplement form appears to be most effective in increasing HDL, it may have side effects such as flushing, itching, and headache, so you may want to consider adding niacin-containing foods to your diet first. Niacin is found in high concentrations in crimini mushrooms, chicken breast, halibut, tomato, romaine lettuce, enriched bread, and cereals.
HDL particles are thought to scour excess cholesterol from the walls of the blood vessels, thus removing it from where it can contribute to atherosclerosis. The HDL carries this excess cholesterol to the liver, where it can be processed. So, high levels of HDL cholesterol imply that a lot of excess cholesterol is being removed from blood vessels. That seems like a good thing.
Typically, a fasting plasma lipid profile is ordered to measure LDL, HDL, total cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. Lipids in plasma and in isolated lipoprotein fractions are quantified by enzymatic methods. Prior consumption of food has little effect on the determination of HDL, with postprandial blood samples usually yielding results that can be well interpreted. [14, 2] Current clinically available techniques can determine the cholesterol content, but not the biologic function, of HDL particles. [2]
Many fruits contain soluble fiber, which is important for lowering cholesterol, but apples have a leg up on other fruits. Apples (especially the skins) contain pectin, a type of soluble fiber that latches onto the "bad" cholesterol and guides it through your digestive system and out of your body, effectively lowering your LDL-cholesterol levels. Citrus fruits are also high in pectin, but since it's mostly in the pulp, you'll have to eat your fruits to get the benefits, rather than juice them. Luckily, apples are a little easier to pucker up to than lemons. Apples are also high in polyphenols, powerful antioxidants that help reduce inflammation.
Where HDL is concerned, "you can't be too thin," Castelli says. One report found about a 1 percent rise in HDL for every pound of fat lost. This doesn't mean you have to turn yourself into a toothpick, but that you should work on getting rid of excess flab as you add muscle. (Use a body-fat monitor rather than a scale to chart your progress.) Fortunately, fat loss is likely to go hand in hand with the exercise and dietary modifications that also raise HDL levels.
Why is one form of cholesterol considered good and another bad? There are actually as many as 18 kinds of cholesterol, but to save confusion, doctors divide them into two categories: LDL (bad) and HDL (good). Your liver manufactures most of your cholesterol, and small amounts of it go toward a variety of healthy purposes, including creating hormones that help turn food and exercise into muscle. Serving as cholesterol chauffeurs are fat/protein bunches called lipoproteins, and that's where the fun begins: Low-density lipoproteins tend to deposit cholesterol on artery walls, where it builds up and eventually interferes with blood flow. But the high-density variety seems to take cholesterol back to the liver, where it can be eliminated from the body.
1. Oats. An easy first step to improving your cholesterol is having a bowl of oatmeal or cold oat-based cereal like Cheerios for breakfast. It gives you 1 to 2 grams of soluble fiber. Add a banana or some strawberries for another half-gram. Current nutrition guidelines recommend getting 20 to 35 grams of fiber a day, with at least 5 to 10 grams coming from soluble fiber. (The average American gets about half that amount.)
Reduce the amount of sugar and flour in your diet. Recent evidence indicates that added sugar – in the form of table sugar (sucrose) or high-fructose corn syrup – is probably a greater contributor to heart disease than is consumption of saturated fat. This suggests that the inflammatory hypothesis may in fact have more validity than the conventional lipid hypothesis, although the debate is far from settled. As a general rule, Dr. Weil advises against consuming foods with added sugars, particularly soft drinks and highly processed snack foods, which can cause rapid spikes and dips in blood sugar levels. The result can be overeating, obesity and heart disease.
HDL is plasma's smallest and densest lipoprotein. The major apolipoproteins of HDL are apo A-I and apo A-II, the alpha lipoproteins. An elevated concentration of apo A-I and apo A-II, known as hyperalphalipoproteinemia (HALP), is associated with a lower risk of CHD. Conversely, hypoalphalipoproteinemia increases the chances of CHD development. [2] HALP generally does not produce any unusual clinical features (although corneal opacity has been associated with the condition), and it should not be considered a disease entity but rather a fortuitous condition that can increase longevity because of the related decrease in CHD incidence. [9]
Because increasing HDL levels is thought to be such a beneficial thing, and because there is no easy or reliable way to do so, developing drugs that substantially raise HDL levels has become a major goal for several pharmaceutical companies. And indeed, several of these drugs have been developed, and have led to clinical trials to demonstrate their safety and efficacy.

Try to eat it two to four times a week. "Not only are the omega-3 fats in fish heart-healthy, but replacing red meat with fish will lower your cholesterol by reducing your exposure to saturated fats, which are abundant in red meat," Samaan says. The catch? Some types, like shark, swordfish, and king mackerel, are high in mercury. That can increase your risk for heart disease. Instead, choose wild salmon, sardines, and bluefin tuna.
However, although low levels of HDL predict increased cardiovascular risk, particularly in healthy individuals with no history of cardiovascular events, the relationship between HDL and CHD risk is complex, with HDL-C and cardiovascular disease having a nonlinear relationship. For example, research found that HDL levels above approximately 60 mg/dL showed no further improvement in prognosis, and the EPIC (European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition)-Norfolk and IDEAL (Incremental Decrease in End Points through Aggressive Lipid Lowering) studies showed that very high levels of HDL may actually be associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic disease. [5, 6, 2]
Typically, a fasting plasma lipid profile is ordered to measure LDL, HDL, total cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. Lipids in plasma and in isolated lipoprotein fractions are quantified by enzymatic methods. Prior consumption of food has little effect on the determination of HDL, with postprandial blood samples usually yielding results that can be well interpreted. [14, 2] Current clinically available techniques can determine the cholesterol content, but not the biologic function, of HDL particles. [2]
Different foods lower cholesterol in various ways. Some deliver soluble fiber, which binds cholesterol and its precursors in the digestive system and drags them out of the body before they get into circulation. Some give you polyunsaturated fats, which directly lower LDL. And some contain plant sterols and stanols, which block the body from absorbing cholesterol.

A meta-analysis looked at randomized controlled trials for artichoke extract for high cholesterol. They found three studies worth analyzing and two showed some effect in lowering total cholesterol. Adverse events were mild, transient, and infrequent. The study said that larger clinical trials over longer periods are needed. The conclusion was that the evidence was not convincing, and the Cochrane Review discontinued updating its analysis of this research as of 2016.
If you want to increase the benefits of the fats you eat, work out before you chow down. A study at the University of Missouri found that regular exercise prior to high-fat meals produces a large hike in HDL. I'm not suggesting that your excuse for indulging in high-fat meals ought to be a pre-meal workout, merely that exercise before a meal works to your heart's advantage.
There's no magical food to keep your heart healthy, but there are a lot of foods that can help—including these foods that help lower your cholesterol. In addition to cutting back on foods that can raise total cholesterol and getting enough exercise, make sure to eat more of these foods that improve your cholesterol profile by raising "good" HDL and/or lowering "bad" LDL cholesterol. These foods include some old standbys, such as oatmeal and fruit, plus a few surprising foods that can help lower cholesterol to reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke.
Coronary heart disease: What you need to know The coronary arteries supply oxygen and blood to the heart. They can narrow, often because cholesterol accumulates on the arteries' walls.

Home Renovation. Monday , September 17th , 2018 - 03:15:00 AM
However, there is sometimes a far more important home renovation to be considered, and that, unfortunately, falls into definition number one. It is the maintenance renovation, the "restore to a former better state" renovation, the boring renovation - and the ratio of financial cost to "wow" factor absolutely stinks. This type of renovation includes things like a new roof, foundation repairs, pointing, insulation, and wiring - normally renovations you can't see - and are generally the top priority of any home owner, no matter what situation they are in.
Home renovations can be fun and gratifying, particularly when done right. Do some reading on home improvements and collect some renovation ideas. You will get some great tips to design your house so it can be very practical for your family and comfortable. As a final thought, when you decide to do your home addition or extensions, home renovations costs must be planned carefully since you want to finish your home renovations within budget.
Planning is the key to a successful renovation that is completed on time and on budget. Ideally, you want to set your expectations in advance so that you can avoid any problems as the renovation progresses. You not only want to consider your own style and vision, but basic elements that will impact your renovation. For example, always consider lighting before you make changes to windows, take careful measurements of rooms so that you know your renovations can be accommodated and coordinate style elements for particular rooms throughout your entire renovation.

Editorial: Journalists are not the enemy
(Editor's note: The opinions in this article are the author's, as published by our content partner, and do not necessarily represent the views of MSN or Microsoft.)
A central pillar of President Trump's politics is a sustained assault on the free press. Journalists are not classified as fellow Americans, but rather "the enemy of the people." This relentless assault on the free press has dangerous consequences. We asked editorial boards from around the country – liberal and conservative, large and small – to join us today to address this fundamental threat in their own words.
Replacing a free media with a state-run media has always been
For more than two centuries, this foundational American principle has protected journalists at home and served as a model for free nations abroad. Today it is under serious threat. And it sends an alarming signal to despots from Ankara to Moscow, Beijing to Baghdad, that journalists can be treated as a domestic enemy.
The press is necessary to a free society because it does not implicitly trust leaders — from the local planning board to the White House. And it's not a coincidence that this president — whose financial affairs are murky and whose suspicious pattern of behavior triggered his own Justice Department to appoint an independent counsel to investigate him — has tried so hard to intimidate journalists who provide independent scrutiny.
There was once
Trump's attack feedback loop helps explain why his faithful are following him into
Trump can't outlaw the press from doing its job here, of course. But the model of inciting his supporters in this regard is how 21st-century authoritarians like Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan operate; you don't need formal censorship to strangle a supply of information.
Trump's apologists feebly insist that he is referring only to biased coverage, rather than the entire fourth estate. But the president's own words and long track record show again and again just how deeply cynical and dishonest this argument is.
The nation's Founding Fathers took for granted that the press would be biased and yet they still explicitly enshrined the freedom of journalists and publishers in the Constitution. "Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost," wrote Thomas Jefferson.
American politicians of all parties since the Founders have groused about the media, trying to work the refs by arguing that the news is biased against their tribe. But there was always respect for the press as an institution. It was not that long ago that Ronald Reagan proclaimed, "Our tradition of a free press as a vital part of our democracy is as important as ever."
"The press was to serve the governed, not the governors," Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black wrote in 1971. Would that it were still the case. Today, the only media that Trump's movement accepts as legitimate are those that unquestioningly advocate for its leader personally.
Indeed, it is not just that the president is stoking domestic division for political and personal gain, he's asking his audiences to follow him into Fantasia. "Just stick with us, don't believe the crap you see from these people, the fake news," he told an audience in Kansas last month. "Just remember, what you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening." George Orwell put it more gracefully in his novel "1984." "The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."
It is an essential endpoint to Trump's deluge of dishonesty that he now contests objective reality and urges his supporters to do the same. In the first 558 days of his presidency, Trump made 4,229 false or misleading claims, according to a list compiled by The Washington Post. Yet among Trump supporters, only 17 percent think that the administration regularly makes false claims. "Alternative facts" have become de facto.
Lies are antithetical to an informed citizenry, responsible for self-governance. The greatness of America is dependent on the role of a free press to speak the truth to the powerful. To label the press "the enemy of the people" is as un-American as it is dangerous to the civic compact we have shared for more than two centuries.

Mary, Queen of Scots by Gordon Donaldson Essay
Mary, Queen of Scots by Gordon Donaldson Essay
Length: 1753 words (5 double-spaced pages)
Rating: Powerful Essays
Essay Preview
The first chapter in the book discusses the reign of King James V, father of Mary Stuart. He became King of Scotland at the age of one after his father's death at the Battle of Flodden. His marriage to princess Madeleine ended after her sudden death, and James then married Mary of Guise-Lorraine in 1538. This marriage cemented the Alliance between Scotland and France but worsened relations with England leading to the war with Henry VIII, which ended in Scottish defeat in 1542. James V died in Falkland Palace, on December 14, 1542, "As a worn-out, desperate man, at the age of thirty years". His daughter Mary, just six days old, was his successor.
In chapter two Mary, Queen of Scots was being educated in France, where she was sheltered from the danger of Scotland, England and France and their constant bloodshed. During Mary's childhood, France, England, and Scotland fought over religious decisions and particularly over who should control the church. At the end of the chapter, the "Book of Discipline", comes into effect on setting up a regional organization for the Church.
In the beginning of chapter three, Mary is eighteen years old, married and then widowed, and she is Queen of Scotland and France. The King of England, Francis, is dying, and Mary has the thirst for more power by trying to become Queen of England. Mary's sister-in-law, Elizabeth, also finds the idea of being Queen tempting but by being illegitimate by birth, Mary feels she has the upper hand. She marries Lord Darnley, her English cousin, and is infatuated with him in the beginning, but she soon starts to dislike him and refuses his demands for crown matrimonial. Darnley becomes jealous of Mary's most trusted fri...

...itness the execution of Sir John Gordon in 1562, faced her own end with calm, courage, and dignity".
The strengths of the book are very apparent. The book provides an in depth description of Mary Stuart from her appearance, to the sports in which she liked to play. Also, the book shows pictures of the castles in which Mary stayed in and also of Mary and her first husband, Francis II. In addition, this book can creatively make you visualize specific events that occurred in Mary's life.
The one major weakness of the book was that it was a to informative for the average reader. By describing the many ruling families of England, France, and Scotland, this book proved to be quite confusing in recognizing which family belonged to which country. Also, the author seemed to jump from one time period to the next without any flowing text.
I feel that this book should mainly be read by above-average reading level students in high school/ college or by people interested in that particular time period. I enjoyed reading about Mary Stuart and her troubled life. It was sometimes hard to grasp the content, however, when I did comprehend the material, it was quite interesting.

Elizabeth I, "queen of England and Ireland, was the most famous of English Monarchs and one of the most successful women rulers in history." (Row, 243). "She was not only concerned with politics, diplomacy, and the religious struggle against the Counter-Reformation, but was also interested in voyages, finances, literature, and the arts." (Row 243).... [tags: History, Mary Queen of Scots, Catholicism]

Essay about Queen Elizabeth
- Queen Elizabeth was born on September 7, in 1533 to a royal couple by the name of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. She pertained a strong personality and strong political skills in overlooking marriage proposals and intensely flirting with many available suitors. She reigned over England without a king or children (Britannia: Elizabeth 1). Her father was known for the execution of his wives. The king had announced that any daughter would be "illegitimate" to the line of succession because his upcoming sons would be highly favorable to the throne (Thomas, Heather)....

Any bike that gets ridden seriously as transportation or on long rides needs at least a basic tool/emergency kit, and the knowledge to use it, unless the rider is always in a position to call a friend with a car or a cab when their bike needs a quick fix on the road. If you never travel more than a few miles, this can be overkill, and calling a friend or a cab may be just the ticket, but if you want to be more self reliant, this is something you should seriously consider. This list may sound like an awful lot of stuff to carry, but really, it only weighs a few lbs and fits in a small, under-seat bag that comes off quickly so I don't have to leave it with the bike if theft is a concern. If you always carry a regular rack top bag, you can also just put all this in a small nylon bag and throw it in there, but I prefer an under-seat bag.
I bought this book to supplement "Anybody's Bike Book" because I always like to get a second opinion. This book uses photos extensively rather than drawings as in the other book. They are well composed and quite helpful providing additional detailed information in a clear, conciseful manner. Information is provided in heirarchy format and geared from initial purchase to daily maintenance of my two wheeled friend. Good book!
Don't rely on others. "People need to recognize that now there are different cassette sizes, so there are different chains depending on what gear you have. A lot of people are like, 'Oh my friend is always prepared they always have the stuff, I'm not going to bring anything.' All of the stuff now is very bike-specific, and you have to have your own package of stuff."
The Knights Helping Knights Pantry is a student driven program at the University of Central Florida with the goal of assisting students through financially tough times. Donations that are either brought to the Pantry or are left in one of our 15 drop boxes on campus are provided by faculty, staff and students. Student organizations, departments and individuals on campus also organize food drives that benefit the Pantry.
Professional mountain biker Rebecca Rusch has been on plenty of long rides and experienced enough mechanical failures to know what makes a fully-stocked repair kit. One of her recent journeys, a 1,200-mile journey through the jungles of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia along the Ho Chi Minh Trail required the utmost degree of preparedness — "We brought with us a lot of extra bearings, o-rings, stuff that you would never be able to find in Laos and Cambodia. Before I go out on these big adventures, I replace every bearing in my bike, my fork got a total rebuild — everything is in pristine condition," says Rusch.
Based on what we found, we chose the most relevant items and used them all. To test patches, I repaired holes using four different types of patches, from Novara (REI's now-discontinued house brand), Park Tool, and Rema. Patching a tube isn't hard but there are a few tricks, and the key was attention to detail and patience. I was extremely diligent in following proper patch procedure, which includes a thorough sanding of the entire area to be patched (for max stickiness) and properly letting the vulcanizer dry on both surfaces before applying. For the peel-and-stick patches, I went so far as to prep the area with canned air to ensure as tight a seal as we could possibly muster.
Now you might be wondering: "I'm carrying a tube; why carry patches at all?" As insurance for the unforeseeable. Wirecutter senior editor Christine Ryan admits she didn't use to pack them, but said, "I've regretted that decision when I've had a flat on a ride, used my spare tube, and then, half an hour later, had a second flat. Also, lots of people aren't very good at figuring out—or don't take the time to figure out—what caused their flat and remove the cause: thorn, eensy bit of glass, whatever. Then they promptly have a second flat, and everyone else laughs at them."
Otherwise, this tool should serve the average commuter well. Specifically, we think you'll find the size 4, 5, and 6 hex keys, extremely common sizes in bicycles, very helpful. They'll adjust seat-post heights or let you remove the saddle entirely, or tighten a loose stem that's always rattling apart. The Phillips head will tighten loose bolts on shoe cleats or the rear derailleur. The most common use for the torx would be adjusting disc brakes if you have 'em.
High quality bike repair stand features with 360° swivel head and adjustable height. It is convenient to use our bicycle repair stand no matter you are sitting or standing. Covered by plastic, the clamp keeps your bike in place and protects the paint of your bike nicely. Made from sturdy metal, this bike work stand can holds up to 30kg/66 lb. It is a perfect choice for bike enthusiasts, bike clubs, bike shops and bike repair shops.
Packed with basic tools, this compact tin rescues puncture-interrupted bike trips. Pedaling away to a picnic spot with a pal, you hear a disconcerting "pop!". Your two-wheeler is now down one wheel, and unless you've got mad unicycle skills, you need tools. Good thing you brought this handsome, compact tin. Just break out the metal tire levers and patch kit, and you're rolling along again in no time. The six-sided, dog bone-style hex wrench adjusts the most common bike screws and bolts and screws. Made in China.
A multitool is a highly versatile piece of repair equipment that can address most of your maintenance needs. Ideally, you should use it before a ride to tighten and adjust everything properly, but sometimes it's necessary on a ride as well. If you encounter a loose screw, realize your saddle height is not right, or that your brakes need tightening, you will be happy to have it.
Inside Student Union across from College Optical, the UCF Bike Repair Service is provided for students with bike problems. Students may come, free of charge, and have their bikes repaired with quality service by our Bike Repair Team. Service include: Inflate tires, change tubes, brake adjustments, tighten crankset, loose handlebars, adjust gears, and brake cable installation. Bikes can also be reserved here as part of the Bike Share program.

text: Crazy Therapeutic Asians Why Is Representation Important? Time and time again research shows how crucial it is for people of color to see themselves represented in media, politics, and other social arenas. This representation does not only impact how others see underrepresented groups, but how individuals in that group see themselves. For young people of color, having peers who look similar and share interests can provide a sense of safety and belongingness. So, it comes as no surprise that having someone who looks 22 Sep

Scratch stone road bridge, wooden carcass with DAS clay rolled with a texture roller and hand made corner stones. Was not happy with the first go on the far (unseen) side, but that experience led to cracking the process of transferring the clay to final position using greased proof paper, the build progressed. I still had to do a lot of remedial work to basically hand trowel the corner stones in place later on and re scribe all the mortar lines then add the inner walls, coping stones and road surface. I used a base coat of cream for the mortar and a couple of colours for the dry brushing (probably about 5-6) and voila, worthy of a video!

TimberSurf reacted to a post in a topic: New layout
Started on the next module for my layout, a dip in the board level to accommodate three bridges across a valley. One stayed cable bridge 1.2 meters long, a double steel bow bridge with steel under slung trestles and a stone road bridge, all over a canal, a river and a road. A rough 3D CAD drawing is my design plan. Essentially only the light purple bridge will be bought in, ALL other elements will be scratch built.
I was really impressed with the live feed of the one with the fuel filling line, hence sparked to go, but the Alsager 360 with the two control panels was also big and impressive (I love multi layers) and the one with the sea front, has some incredible scratch building and weathering. Well worth the visit.

TimberSurf reacted to a post in a topic: Inverduff - North East Scotland in N gauge
TimberSurf posted a topic in LayoutsI am an Electrical Design Engineer, I built my first layout in the 70's in a shed in the garden, a 6ft x 4ft effort that started the ball rolling while i was at school. The second incarnation was an end to end affair some 15ft long by 18ins wide in my friends loft. The third was a rehash of the seconds boards in my siblings house. There was then a pause for the fairer sex, marriage and a family. Next came the resurgence in the form of a new layout at my current abode, with some influence that it was for "the little ones", a 16ft long by 30in wide board was erected. The little ones became big, and I was persuaded to relinquish the spare room for teenager "personal space". Eventually they wanted "personal space" and moved out! The room once again became the train room and soon a new 10ft 6in by 4ft layout was constructed, on the premise it was for the "little one", a later addition! That was over 10 years ago! Work away from home has given me little time to indulge my hobbies at home, but has been a means of giving spare time to buy huge quantities of stock and materials to create a monster layout! Recent events have allowed me time to design phase 2 and I have started documenting it in my website LUMSDONIA HOWEVER, my involvement in another forum and my unusual (for my age) dexterity with PC's and the web (I have had a website for 20 years) has led to the development of a website for my musings and general spasmodic updates about my layout. But over the last year or two, it has rapidly become a Model Railways resource of info! I also have a complimentary Youtube channel, mostly about investigating new animated features for my layout. Sections include my layout, guides for beginners, ever expanding "How to's", tips, glossary and guides and even a shop section of FREE downloadable pdf's
