Small Business Story
Posted By nk on December 3, 2010
These comments was transferred from b2evolution to WordPress on Dec 3, 2010.
When my position with Okanagan Restoration came to an end due to management changes and company restructure, my dreams of working through to early retirement were dashed.
With my job gone, I had no reason to ignore the opportunity fate offered me. I took the skills I had developed in the accounting field and decided to open my bookkeeping office in February of 2000.
Coming from a large family of entrepreneurs, I took my spirit with my career experience and life skills to build my own business.
My life has changed for the better. I have learned to trust myself, and my confidence in being able to make good decisions has grown. I truly enjoy being able to set my own schedule for work and family life.

There are thousands of women who have started their own businesses. While there are many reasons for becoming self-employed, most women agree that running your own business can be a life-changing experience.

Creating a support team for yourself
If you are like me, you want to be in business for yourself but not by yourself. Building a business can get lonely. A strong circle of support allows you to tap into the wisdom of others. Friends and advisors will be your most valuable assets, providing encouragement, feedback, contacts, and advice. For me I joined a local networking group.

Shift your mindset.
When I started my business I wore many hats. Than I realized if I plan to create a business that has value or can be taken over by someone else, than the business need to be able to function without me. When you decide that you are moving from doing to managing, you will need systems, processes, or operations manual – tools for running the business that will allow others to work for you. You may have to train, supervise and trust others to become de-ers on your behalf. This was a hard step for me, but after a while I began to concentrate on how to grow my clientele and get better prices for my product.

Create Balance.
There are a few changes that can be made to create balance. Start by crating a separate environment, especially if you are working from home or sharing a computer with the rest of the family. Invest in your own computer and set up an office for yourself.
Set boundaries and explain the rules concerning your work time to friends and family.
Be firm with yourself; plan to do housework at specific times outside your business hours. Don't grab a minute to do the wash because you don't have a client lined up, spend that time finding a new client. Protect your downtime.
I am telling you this because it happened to me and I ended up getting an office space in town. It was a good move for me.

Owning your own business.
I think small business is the backbone of the Canadian economy. We create more than 300,000 new jobs each year for Canadians. Many of us dream of owning our own business and one in six Canadian owns his or her own business.
In fact 52 out of 100 businesses are owned or co-owned by women.

Your Team.
Networking is an important activity for small business owners. Because you sometimes work in isolation, be sure to set up a network of people in business. How? Attend meetings, conventions, seminars. Hand out your business card to everyone you meet. Tell people what you do.
I attend a networking group once a week. There are 40 of us and we each have different businesses. Just knowing each other gives us the confidence to refer one another to potential customers.
My business has grown because of that.

Five start-up tips.
1- Drive, dedication and commitment are important qualities to make your business succeed.
2- Know your business by doing your research. No business fails because the owner knows too much.
3- Know your market.
4- creat a business plan.
5- meet your banker. Even if you don't need to borrow money now, your relationship with your banker can be important.

Employees are the backbone of our economy. You get more bang for your buck for rewarding an employee even if their ideas don't pan out. Employees look to employers for support, listen to their ideas and suggestions and allow them to exercise some of their reactivity. By making the employee feel like being a part of a team, it will transfer to customer service. The employee would take pride in their work and that positive energy will be released to the customers. If you want repeat customers, take a look at how your employees are being treated. Other accounting topics can be found at:

8 Should Read Guidelines For Trading Bitcoin And Altcoins

Ether is a tradeable cryptocurrency and also utilized to pay for fees and services on the Ethereum blockchain - a network that can be utilised by developers to construct blockchain-based applications. once more, do not touch these guys.There are legit projects to invest in that you can find. Why dump cash simply click the following post into a shit scammy project that will crash and burn when the industry turns.Find a seller. Once you locate a seller you agree on a cost for the bitcoins. The character of gain or loss from the sale or exchange of virtual currency depends on regardless of whether the virtual currency is a capital asset in the hands of the taxpayer.When you loved this short article and you would like to receive details regarding More Support, http://carminelandsboroug.soup.io/, assure visit our own web site. As AFR Weekend met with Norland the cost of bitcoin was arrowing towards the essential $ten,000 per coin That evening it had gained 17 per cent, taking its annual acquire to ten times. By the end of the week it had been via $US11,000, only to crash 20 per cent in a matter of hours, only to go back up once again. It underscores its inherent volatility.As we've explained before, this is a cryptocurrency trading technique that can be utilized trading all the crucial cryptocurrencies. In fact, this is an Ethereum trading strategy as considerably as it is a Bitcoin trading approach. If you did not know Ethereum is the second most popular cryptocurrency (see figure below).Coinbase is the premier way to purchase cryptocurrencies. As such, its interface is really user-friendly, and its payment possibilities are versatile. You can hyperlink up your Coinbase account to your bank account, or you can pay with significant credit cards. Both purchasing and promoting click through the up coming article cryptocurrencies is a breeze.To purchase bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, you'll need to have to set up an account with an exchange. Coinbase is one of the most popular ones because it has created it quite simple to use. There, you can buy bitcoin, ether and litecoin. Other exchanges incorporate Kraken and Bitstamp.This is still new experimental stuff, and personally I would not bet my savings on bitcoin just however. Much more interesting then bitcoin the currency nonetheless is Bitcoin the network and technique. The decentralized Bitcoin network guarantees that no single organization can control Bitcoin. But far more on Bitcoin the network, transactions, multiple signature needs, anonymity and sensible contracts (whew!) in future posts.The first way is mining by miners. A neighborhood of cryptocurrency miners are any person setting up their computer systems or ASIC machines to participate in the crypto transactions. To mine this currency, miners need to attempt to solve complex maths difficulties recognized as a hash, which enables you to generate coins.The typical I saw was about 7 months to break even and that was the very ideal case scenario. As you know, most coins get tougher to mine, as time goes by, so that time will only improve. If you have observed a more quickly return in your personal account, let me know.A man in Grimsby wants to flog his home for 18 Bitcoin (£81,305) simply because he calcuates the currency is a greater investment than cold hard British pounds in the bank. In addition to direct sales of Bitcoin at, or close to, the current average market rate (plus browse this site 1% charge), Coinbase facilitates low charge (.25% for takers) trading of both Bitcoin and Ethereum on its exchange platform, GDAX (the Worldwide Digital Asset Exchange).When the Silk Road web site was busted in October 2013, the closure took out 13,648 diverse drug offers, according to study by US on the web safety group, Digital Citizens Alliance (pdf). But today, the dark web is teeming with dozens of new markets and thousands of new dealers serving a increasing customer base.7)Locate miners- As soon as you get your product done, you want miners. As an alternative of overselling your cryptocurrency to them, attempt to construct trust, express your vision and share your intentions with them. This way, folks will get an sincere understanding of your idea which will make them stick to it for the longer run.ChangeTip is not the very first try at an on the internet tipping platform. As early as the late 1990s, early Web entrepreneurs took a stab at the notion with Beenz and Fluze, every of which raised huge dot-com funding rounds. As recently as 2008, Y Combinator alumni TipJoy revisited the notion. But without the advantage of bitcoin and its low expense payment rails, all of these attempts met with predictable failure. Coinbase, like Changetip, is betting that this time will be various.search is not a network that relies on connecting to other folks. You don't use Google due to the fact your pals do. Put one more way: Google is not helpful since it's common we're popular because we're valuable. Of course, the more folks use our search engine, the more beneficial we are to advertisers - but just as users have decision when it comes to details discovery, advertisers have choices when it comes to on the web marketing. You can use Google AND the competition. These relationships are not mutually exclusive.

Daniela Rettore (Guest Feature)
Daniela Rettore
As a first guest in our new series we meet the amazing Italian fashion photographer Daniela Rettore. She is working with one of the biggest magazines in the industry such as ELLE, MARIE CLAIRE , L'Officiel Suisse, L'Officiel Ukraine and many other.
1. Tell us a little bit about yourself?
Hello, my name is Daniela Rettore.
I was born in Italy and I live in Milan, but I actually shoot everywhere but Milan (laughs)
I fell in love with photography when I was a teenager.
When I was 14 I begged my mother to buy me a camera for my birthday and I remember taking " fashion pictures " of my female friends for fun .
2. How did you get into photography?
At the age of 30, after my modeling career was over I did not know what I wanted to do with my life, I only knew I wanted to get up every day , feeling happy of what do.
So I asked myself "what do you really like?"
And the answer was – photography.
The next day I bought a professional second-hand Canon and a film.
I called a friend of mine who was still working as a model and asked her if I could try to take some pictures of her.
I did the make up and hair, the styling and we shot with natural light in the field.
Two days later, did the same thing with another female friend.
Those two shoots went so well, that a model agency called me and asked me if I want to do tests for their models.
Six months later I had to rent a studio, due to the amount of work.
3. How did you meet your first client?
One of the models I did a test with was so happy from the results, she decided to introduce me to one of her clients.
I was so nervous before the shooting of our first catalogue, I did not sleep at all the night before! (Laughs)
4. If you were about to start now, what would be your plan?
I'd do exactly the same!
I'd do exactly the same!
I'd buy a camera, learn how to work in manual mode, how to light, and I'd constantly shoot and improve! I'd learn from all my mistakes and keep asking for advices those that are much better than me.
5. Tell us a secret talent of yours?
I'm a real hard worker…
If something is not good enough or for some reason the shoot went bad or it's just not good enough, I always try to improve and never do the same mistake. I do not surrender. Ever.
6. Tell us a story from one of your photoshoots when you learned a valuable lesson?
I used to delegate my location scouting.
But I got burned several times.
For example once in Marrakesh, we were supposed to shoot in the desert, but it was raining several days before the shoot and when we arrived at the location all we've found was a green valley, instead of the promised desert.
Ever since this photo shoot I always make sure to check my locations in person, at least one day in advance.
7. Do you have a favorite source of knowledge (website/YouTube channel/blog/app) you'd like to share with us?
I LOVE www.fashioneditorials.com
And can spend hours on Instagram!
8. If you were to be associated with one word what would that be?
9. Do you have a final advice for the fans of The Fashion Photography Podcast?
Find your identity as a photographer.
And try not to copy anyone. Of course you can draw inspiration from the best, but then who you are, what you think, your personality must be seen in what you shoot.
Also – if you don't feel that a photoshoot is not the right fit for you… just don't do it.
Spread the word
The "Sustainable" Issue
"We don't need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly." – Anne-Marie Bonneau
Post-Production Workflow – In The Field (Part 2)
In part two of the series Patrick will show the process of importing, culling, editing and exporting the photos.
Cintia Barroso Alexander (Guest Feature)
Hello, my name is Cintia, I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I´m a passionate fashion photographer. I live in Germany, but I work internationally.
I love travelling and living in Europe gives me the opportunity to go to different places and connect to different cultures.

Cleaning the countertops in the kitchen either means using tons of paper towels or a sponge that gets really, really gross. Well, here's a new TWIST in cleaning those countertops that I discovered while on a recent trip to Whole Foods.
TWIST is a company dedicated to clean kitchen counters and leaving the world cleaner as well. As stated on their website:
We believe in a clean world. And that means more than sparkling countertops. It means paying attention to what goes into our products (and what happens to them when they're tossed away).
a sponge is a very challenging process, and one that only a handful of
producers undertake. Cellulose sheets (100% tree fiber) are mixed with
cotton and heated into a liquid that is poured into large molds.
Adjusting the salt particles added to the mix creates those familiar
holes. The mix is then dried as a giant block, sliced into various
shapes, rinsed sparkling clean, combined with an antibacterial agent,
and finally packaged. This process can lead to a lot of waste.
Billions of sponges are produced every year. An industry that big has
an impact on the world around it.
At TWIST, we take special care to make sure 99.97% of all our waste is reused in production. And, our cellulose is sourced from renewable tree farms. We are committed to continually improving our production process to minimize our effect on the environment.
After the TWIST sponges get dirty, just pop them in the dishwaher and their perfectly new again! Not only are the sponges and cloths themselves very clean minded in their design, but the packaging each one comes in is very "Mod" designed, as well. A nice "twist" on typical throw-away product packaging--each TWIST sponge carton has a diagram printed on the inside of it so that it can be cut apart and folded into a Modern bird feeder. Clean and crafty!
Check out the TWIST website by following the link and enjoy some good, clean fun!

text: zedrexvsyrex 0 Posted July 4, 2019 Hey guys, I just need to preface this by saying that I haven't studied evolution in-depth. I just got a little too bored so I read up a little bit on the specific numbers of mutation rates and all of that. In other words, I'm not really educated on evolution. So anyway, I'm trying to figure out mathematically how long it would have taken for us to diverge from our closest relative, the chimpanzee. I've tried working it out for myself, but everything I've come up with shows that it should take way longer than it did. Hear me out. We share 96% of our DNA with chimps, and in there are 6.4 billion base pairs (bp) in the human genome (3.2 billion from each parent). Knowing this, we can figure out how much we share and don't share with chimps: 96% = 0.96 0.96 × 6,400,000,000 = 6,144,00,000 shared bp 6,400,000,000 - 6,144,00,000 = 256,000,000 unshared bp Now according to this study, the human genomic mutation rate is 1.1 × 10⁻⁸ per bp per generation. So: (1.1 × 10⁻⁸) × 6,400,000,000 = 70.4 mutations per generation. 256,000,000 unshared bp ÷ 70.4 = 3,636,364 generations worth of mutations needed to diverge humans from chimps. However, because we get half our genes from each parent, that means that it should be 35.2 mutations (because 70.4 ÷ 2 = 35.2). That also means that the mutations are split into 3,200,000,000 each. At this point, it's important to note that in order for a trait to show, it must either be dominant or have 2 recessive alleles. Generally speaking, any gene that is not 'normal' or 'average' relative to the general population is typically recessive. Basically, both parents should have the exact same mutations for it show. Assuming random mutations, that would mean a 35.2 in 3,200,000,000 chance that the mutations are in favor of the divergence of chimps and humans; this means that out of every 3.2 billion mutations, only 35.2 are likely to have been diverging us from chimps. 3,200,000,000 ÷ 35.2 = 90,909,091. And in order to account for the likelihood of having the same exact mutations, we use the statistical probability of both A and B being A × B. In other words, this: (35.2/3,200,000,000) × (35.2/3,200,000,000) = 1,239.04/10,240,000,000,000,000,000. 10,240,000,000,000,000,000 ÷ 1,239.04 = after 8,264,462,809,917,355, 1 generation will have the same mutations on both chromosomes. Now, knowing that we need 3,636,364 generations in order to diverge from chimps, that means: 8,264,462,809,917,355 × 3,636,364 = 30,052,595,041,322,314,049,586 total generations to diverge from chimps. While the average generation for chimps is 25 years and 30 years for humans, I will assume 20 year generations to speed things up a bit: 30,052,595,041,322,314,049,587 × 20 = 601,051,900,826,446,280,991,736 years needed for humans to diverge from chimps. __________________________________ Now clearly, this is way longer than the actual age of the universe. So naturally, I figured I did something wrong. I decided to throw out the whole concept of probability, and assumed that all traits making humans more chimp-like were dominant, assumed that all human-like traits in chimps were also dominant, and also assumed that all mutations that occur were not random and were ONLY meant to diverge humans from chimps: 96% = 0.96 0.96 × 6,400,000,000 = 6,144,00,000 shared bp 6,400,000,000 - 6,144,00,000 = 256,000,000 unshared bp 256,000,000 unshared bp ÷ 70.4 = 3,636,364 generations worth of mutations needed to diverge humans and chimps. 3,636,364 ÷ 2 = 1,818,182 generations from both, chimps and humans in order to get to where we are today. Assuming 20-year generations: 1,818,182 × 20 = 36,363,640 years needed for evolution of humans and chimps. This is 5 to 6 times the amount of time that the fossil record says. And the thing is, this is STUPIDLY biased in favor of evolution because: One generation should have been 27.5 years, not 20 This is assuming that any and all mutations that occurred were in favor of delineating the species, which completely goes against evolution since most mutations are random and harmless It also assumes absolutely no gene flow, which could potentially speed up the evolution process, or (more likely) slow it down. So, what am I getting wrong here? Did I mess up my math or did I somehow magically show a problem with evolution? What am I missing? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reviewing the trend to WhatsApp groups to study for the CFA exams in last week's post brought up something really interesting. Looking through the posts on the LinkedIn CFA Candidates' Forum, I noticed an almost complete lack of requests for live study groups.
Of the few requests on the page, most got few responses and nowhere near the thousands of comments received on the calls for WhatsApp study groups.
One candidate posting for a local CFA study group even changed course after receiving no responses, saying he could start a WhatsApp group.
Have CFA candidates completely abandoned live study groups and real human interaction???
Why you still need live study groups
I grudgingly accepted live study groups when I was a candidate. We didn't have as much choice but there were a few online options as well. Live study groups seemed terribly inefficient at times but there are still some important reasons to seek out other candidates for live groups.
Maybe I'm just an old-timer but live study groups just seem easier and more natural. The conversation is more focused rather than a bunch of people posting different questions at once. I've participated in a few WhatsApp groups and sometimes it can seem like everyone is talking at once. With live study groups, you establish a formal start and stop time and can get a little better focus.
With live study groups you get an immediate answer to your question and don't have to worry about it getting lost in the streaming feed of questions and answers. You can also get a sense of who in the group has done their reading and which candidate's answers might not be exactly correct. Every year that I would join a live study group, there was always at least one candidate that wasn't prepared and his answers did more harm than good.
The most important benefit to a live CFA study group will always be networking. These are going to be your peers right in your local market. Unless you plan on moving to another state after you pass the CFA exams, you are going to want to know these people throughout your career. Even if you move away, many of these people will continue to be great contacts.
How to blend the old and the new
As with most things, the answer lies somewhere in the middle. Technology can really help to make things easier but don't forget the benefits of face-to-face interactions.
Take advantage of the ease of WhatsApp study groups but consider a short meetup of a few local candidates in the group. Use this time in a live study group to go over more difficult sections and review any questionable answers you got from the WhatsApp group.
If you can't put together a live meetup of local candidates, the next best thing is Skype or other video conferencing option. The idea here is to limit the number of candidates to less than seven candidates so everyone gets the chance to participate.
I would love to hear from some of the millennials in the group about their view on live study groups and WhatsApp. Maybe I just haven't been exposed to WhatsApp groups enough to really get a feel for them. Have you found them easier to manage that live study groups? How about the advantages and disadvantages of each?
'til next time, happy studyin'

ASU jumps ULL, rolls to complete-game victory 50-27
LAFAYETTE, La. - Arkansas State's Brian Davis kicked a season-high five field goals and the Red Wolves amassed 526 yards in total offense Tuesday night to post an impressive 50-27 triumph over Louisiana-Lafayette.
Arkansas State extends its current winning streak to three as the Red Wolves improve to 5-3 overall and 3-1 in the Sun Belt Conference. The Red Wolves also stretched their conference road winning string to seven games and have prevailed in 11 of their last 12 SBC encounters to date.
The A-State victory also snapped Louisiana's eight-game home winning streak and represented the Red Wolves' first win at Cajun Field since 1992 (20-7). The Ragin' Cajuns are 4-3 overall and 2-2 in conference action this season with the setback.
"I'm very proud of our team," ASU head coach Gus Malzahn said. "Coming here (Louisiana-Lafayette) we hadn't had much success in quite a few years. I'm very proud of our team defensively, offensively, and the special teams in it all came together tonight.
"It was a very important game. It was a big night with ESPN and coming into an outstanding team (Louisiana) at their home. For us to play well, it's very encouraging for me and my staff," Malzahn said.
Arkansas State registered the initial 20 points of the contest within the first 16 minutes of play. The Red Wolves took the opening kickoff and marched 45 yards on 11 plays before going up 3-0 on junior kicker Brian Davis' career-tying and season-best 47-yard field goal at the 10:29 mark. On its next possession, A-State would claim a 6-0 lead as Brian Davis connected on a 22-yarder with 4:38 left in the first quarter.
PK Brian Davis
ASU's advantage increased to 13 points (13-0) on the first play from scrimmage in the second quarter when sophomore running back Frankie Jackson scored on an 11-yard sweep around the right end, completing a 42-yard, five-play drive. A-State started the drive in Cajun territory at the 43-yard line as a penalty was declined by the Red Wolves on ULL punter Brett Baer's incomplete fake punt pass attempt. Three consecutive senior quarterback Ryan Aplin pass completions during A-State's ensuing possession, including a 20-yard toss to senior wide receiver Taylor Stockemer helped set up the score.
The Red Wolves continued to make plays as senior free safety Tausean Holmes intercepted ULL quarterback Terrance Broadway's pass over the middle at the ASU 47-yard line and returned the ball 18 yards to the 35-yard line. Two plays later, Ryan Aplin hit junior wideout Julian Jones in the end zone from the 35-yard marker at 14:09 to cap a 12-second elapsed drive and give the visitors a 20-point cushion.
Louisiana-Lafayette would trim A-State's lead to 20-7 with 7:01 remaining in the first half as Terrance Broadway threw a 38-yard scoring strike to wide receiver Darryl Surgent. The Red Wolves would get six of those points back from the Ragin' Cajuns before the end of the first half on a pair of Brian Davis field goals. The ASU kicker booted a 45-yard field goal at 4:18 to end an eight-play, 45-yard drive and then drilled another from 21 yards away with 21.7 seconds left in concluding a six-play, 51-yard march en route to giving the Red Wolves a 26-7 halftime lead. ASU held a 327-179 advantage in total offense through the opening two quarters, which included a 244-145 passing yard margin.
The Ragin' Cajuns cut into ASU's 18-point lead in the third quarter with their second TD of the night as the combination of Broadway and Surgent delivered again, this time on a 25-yard pass play to draw within 26-14 at the 12:16 mark. The score remained intact for the next seven minutes before Arkansas State found the end zone for the third time as junior running back David Oku tallied untouched on a five-yard sweep to make it a 33-14 ballgame at 5:23 in the third. ASU wasn't done putting points on the board in the quarter however as freshman Rocky Hayes broke loose through the Louisiana defense on a 57-yard "highlight reel" scoring run just under the two-minute mark to give ASU a commanding 40-14 lead.
The fourth quarter, which featured a combined 23 points, saw A-State go up 43-14 on Brian Davis' fifth field goal from 29 yards with 8:58 left in the game. The Cajuns countered on Torrey Pierce's five-yard TD rush at 6:58 before Frankie Johnson posted his second TD run of the evening on a two-yard dash with about a minute left to give A-State a 50-21 lead. Louisiana scored on the game's final play as Terrance Broadway tossed a four-yard TD aerial to James Butler.
One of the many ASU highlights on the night was the performance by Brian Davis, who recorded 20 points alone on his five field goals and five extra-point kicks. His five field goals were one shy of equaling his school-record of six set against Central Arkansas last season (9/24).
A-State's 526 total offensive yards, included 269 in the air from Ryan Aplin, who completed 21-of-31 throws. Rocky Hayes paced the Red Wolves' ground game with a game-high 86 yards on just three carries and David Oku added 83 on 22 attempts. Josh Jarboe was among three ASU receivers with four receptions and compiled a team-best 67 receiving yards.
Senior linebackers Don Jones and Nathan Herrold led the way defensively for ASU with seven tackles apiece. Tausean Holmes, freshman defensive end Chris Stone, and senior cornerback Chaz Scales also notched an interception apiece.
For Louisiana, Terrance Broadway threw for a game-leading 374 yards on a 28-of-39 passing performance as the Cajuns netted 450 yards of total offense but were victimized by five turnovers. Two Cajun receivers, Darryl Surgent and Jamal Robinson totaled 107 and 106 receiving yards, respectively.
The Red Wolves will seek to continue their Sun Belt road success on Saturday, Nov. 3, versus the North Texas Mean Green in Denton, Texas. Kickoff is set for 4 p.m. (CT) at UNT's Apogee Stadium and the game will aired on flagship station 107.9 KIFN via the EAB Sports Radio Network.

What is intimacy with God? What does that mean, and how can we live it out? Simply put, intimacy is being close with the Lord. You can be close to Him every day just by taking a few moments to recognize that He's with you and desires to communicate. He cares so much about us and desires for us to come to Him and take time to simply be with Him.
Intimacy looks like spending quality time with God. Think about your hobbies and what activities you like to do. Writing, reading, hiking, singing, etc. Anything you do, do it with Jesus. He's always there, and He wants to be with you through everything.
We can even have intimacy with God by sitting in silence. Most people find it hard to be settled in the silence and find solace in it, as this takes patience and practice. But you'll find that when you exercise this habit, it becomes easier.
For the majority of my life, I always felt like something was missing. I couldn't put my finger on what it was. My relationship with the Lord used to never be very intimate at all. I wasn't taking time during my day to talk with Jesus and soak in His presence. That's what I was missing... a connection. At the time, I wasn't aware of how much He loved me and desired quality time. Now I realize how vital it is to abide in Him and how I cannot function properly without being with Jesus.
In the midst of our crazy lives, we need to take some time to solely be in the presence of our Lord through intimacy with Him. We need to sit down, let our minds quiet, and listen to what He has to say. Quite often, you'll find that the Holy Spirit won't say anything. He'll just be silent, and that's okay. Perhaps He's teaching you how to be silent as well. It's a chaotic world we live in, therefore we should rest and quiet ourselves often. After our minds clear, that's when we can better hear the voice of our Father.
Intimacy with God is of key significance. Without it, our souls are empty and unyielding to the spirit. We don't feel properly fueled unless we have our daily time with the Lord. If we're not drawing close to God, we won't be able to hear His voice or grow in a deeper relationship with Him. Intimacy is crucial in order for us to live, move, breathe and to have life.

Probable Solutions:
1. maybe some material which can not be process by cone crusher, such as iron, or steel was fed into the chamber.
2. to fine feeding material or the max. moisture of feeding material exceeds the limit
3. discharging opening is too small
4. bad lubricating. For example, wrong oil number, dirty oil or the oil is not enough
Probable Solutions:
1. feeding is not evenly or continuously.
Non- evenly or continuously feeding will cause damage to the cone. Because when the cone crusher work without feeding material, this will cause the movable cone copper bushing strike with eccentric cooper bushing. If this happens frequently, the cone will be damaged. Besides, working without material also damaged the cooper bushing of movable cone. Because the movable cone will swing or waver when it works without feeding material.
2. bad lubrication. Such as oil number is wrong, oil is dirty, oil is not enough,etc.
Due to the above problems, the users should pay attention to the following points:
1. evenly and continuously feeding to the cone crusher
2. check the material before feeding to cone crusher carefully, eliminate the steel bar, or irons.
3. feeding capacity match with the cone crusher processing capacity
4. if the material is too humid, it is better to dry it before processing. Otherwise, the humid material will block the cone crusher. Recommended humidity is less than 6%
5. choose the suitable model of cone crusher
6. other auxiliary equipment should match with cone crusher for a complete crushing plant processing, such as vibrating feeder, jaw crusher, screen, conveyors, etc.

(***Spoilers DO NOT READ if you are not up to S4E13***)
Hi Walking Dead Fans!
What do you think about Bob Stookey?
In S4E13 he tells Sasha he's happy all the time he is not alone?
Does that mean he's happy he's with Sasha?
Here's the thing...
He didn't say to Sasha 'I am happy to be here with you'. That would have been beautiful...
Instead he said 'I am happy I am not alone.'
I would say that's a bit of selfish answer.
Alcoholics are often self centered in their recovery process from addiction.
I think the important thing to take into account is Bob's alcoholism and what I really think he's really saying here is:
'I am happy I am not alone, because when I am; I drink.'
(He was downing a couple of bottles of cough syrup when he was alone at the beginning of S3E13 with a walker reaching for him through a fence.)
What do you think?

I think the selfishness point is interesting. I sort of suspect Bob's story may be about him falling back into alcoholism rather than conquering it. So yeah, perhaps he is in control now but when things go bad (as they always do) he may turn back to drink...
13 March 2014 at 7:03pm
Last edited: 13 March 2014 7:39pm
I think you're probably right about that.
It may even show itself in the next three episodes as a result of coping with some sort of tragedy.
It's like a ticking time bomb waiting to go off.
I keep remembering Daryl's squaring off with Bob during S4E4 about his drinking and no supplies in his bag but a bottle of booze and what he would do to Bob if his alcohol caused someone to die.
Who knows? Maybe he will clean himself up.
It wouldn't be as good television though if something horrible didn't go down first.
That's not meant to sound like I have a bit of schadenfreude

Leave a list of all the sites you upload your stories to (besides your personal site, if you have one) and whether or not you think they're worth using.
Wattpad: Yes, worth it, assuming you're writing in the right genre. My popularity goes up and down depending on what story I'm posting. Amber Silverblood is a werewolf story, so it gets tons of reads. The Gray Ranger or Juryokine are high fantasy, so they get way fewer.
RoyalRoadL: Not worth it. I've been uploading there for a couple years now, and I only have a small handful of views and feedback. I'll probably drop this site once I finish the stories I'm on now.
Fictionpress: Not worth it, but that may be a personal thing. I don't know what happened, but the site suddenly stopped working for me earlier this year. I would upload the chapter like usual, but when I posted it, it would come out all... code-y. Like this: https://www.fictionpress.com/s/3326078/5/Juryokine-Exile-of-Heroes. I haven't seen anyone else complaining about it, so like I said, it may just be me.
Deviantart: Not worth it. The options for uploading text are really limited (you can't even italicize) but I guess that's to be expected since it's a website built for visual arts like drawings. I had a few readers over the years, but they all eventually fell away.
One thing I'm curious about is Tumblr. Has anyone had any luck uploading serials there?

January 17, 2011
MBLAQ recently came out with a couple of videos, "Cry" and "Stay." Cry was released last week on the same day as TVXQ's "Keep Your Head Down" and got a looooot of requests, but the TVXQ fangroup – being the biggest fan group in the world – put in a lot more. Afterwards, MBLAQ still continued to get requests, and when "Stay" came out then we got pretty much nothing but MBLAQ in our mailbox. So here we go: time for us to review MBLAQ's "Cry"!
To begin with, some of you might be wondering why we chose this one over "Stay", considering the fact that "Stay" is newer. Fact is, we just like "Cry" more. Really. Now, that might sound like no big deal, but it's a big deal to us, because we normally don't do ballads. They're not really as appealing to us as regular K-pop. But "Cry" is an exception. It has something different about it. Something more soulful. Simon grew up listening to R&B in the 90s, and this song for him was really reminiscent of those times. Seems like it'd be perfect for BET's Midnight Love, (if any of you ever watched that, WOOT WOOT!).
Also, this video brought about a point that we wanted to mention before in B2ST's "Soom": why do boy bands freak out when they get stuck in the rain? Sure, we understand that maybe they just don't like to bring umbrellas with them, but, really now, if we get stuck in rainstorms we just hide under an awning, or run to the closest convenience store and just buy a cheap umbrella. But noooooo. Kpop Boy Bands lose their minds if they get stuck in the rain, and rip off their shirts and jump in the puddles and punch the ground and cry. Come on, guys. It's not worth it! Your makeup will get all smudged! And why don't girl bands ever get stuck in the rain? We think it's probably because the only thing that we can think of when girls get stuck in the rain is them having white T-shirts on and having sleazy wet t-shirt contests, which probably would be inappropriate for Korean TV, but awesome nonetheless…
We also got kinda carried away with the underwater sequence. Martina did a bunch of pictures for them, some of which didn't make the cut. The end scene was supposed to be Simon successfully not sucking at being underwater, but we decided to chop it. Here's the screencap that almost made it in:
By the way, Simon does not suck at swimming. His fingers do get excessively wrinkly, though. We did not make that part up :D
As always, JB and Annie from [닉쑤] Enjoy Your Happy Life~* are awesome for so diligently translating all of our videos into Korean. We usually only thank them in our info boxes on YouTube and on here, but this time we really wanted to give them a shoutout in our video. Thanks JB & Annie. You're the best! And this white box to the right here is supposed to be the YouTube subscriber widget, but it's been broken for a week now or so. Hopefully it'll be fixed sometime soon…
Lastly, if you're a fan of MBLAQ and want to get the CD delivered to you, no matter where you are in the world, you can do so by buying it through the banner below. Huzzah!

i vote for cry by MBLAQ
I think MBLAQ is better but it's hard to tell because it's RAINING! Ironically, they are Rain's boy band….hmmm
As far as the accent at the beginning goes, CheongDoong's accent is from learning English in the Philippines.
Ah tough one.
But 2AM has my vote.
Jokwon actually cried in the video.
Sorry MBLAQ, I love you guys but…yeah
MBLAQ are much better crybabies =3
I just don't like 2AM. They're boooring!
Hard decision. :)
For best video and passion dance it`s definetely MBLAQ!~~~~
For best ballad is without no doubt 2AM!~~~~~ they are the best at BALLADs <3 <3 <3 and lyrics as well.. <3
For the crying part…. I really don`t know…. 2AM crying part is very touching and along with the lyrics it`s wonderful.
MBLAQ.. they are so expresive and you can actually see(feel) their passion. So good! Even if there`s Rain style in it… and personally I don`t like Rain, but they have their own charisma and originality and I like that very much. It`s shown in the crying part too. :)
So my vote goes for………………… MBLAQ because it gives you a little bit more real feeling when expressing the pain.. etc. :)
If you would have asked who`s the ballad… 2AM definetely!
I agree with Mr. Simon! Kpop boy bands need an umbrella :)) I wonder if they don`t get sick… :P :D
next one please do GD&TOP's 뻑ì´ê°€ìš"!
Don't make them get umbrellas! It's just freaking HOT having guys dancing in the rain and getting all wet and punching puddles…
Just imagine hot girls doing it, I'm sure you'll understand, Simon :D And… Koreans don't wear socks, from what I heard….
I just don't like the guyliner. It was fine when it wasn't excessive, like… half a year or a year ago or so but now it's just ridiculous…
Oh, and I'm for Cry of course xD
Next Week: GD & TOP's Knock Out ^ ^
definitely MBLAQ! I love 2am songs too, but wow, This time round, MBLAQ is really overflowing with emotions :D
Hot, irresistible tears ;D
I wanna sayyyyy MBLAQ :O
I´m a MBLAQ fan and also a 2AM fan but sorry i love mblaq more!!!! hehehe so my vote goes to MBLAQ´s Cry!! yeah MBLAQ Fighting!!
My vote goes for 2AM :)
OH OH… FIRST! :D I'm gonna pick MBLAQ, they've been my fav boy band since I got into K-Pop… after I saw Mir rap in "Oh Yeah" I was hooked :p Glad you guys like this song too… I was surprised they came out with a ballad but I love it.
kkk, this song, the way they sing and move, the dance, and their facial expressions in Cry are all totally 100% Rain style :D couldn't they invite him to perform together? it would be so cool :D
I vote for MBLAQ.

The 11th WBWE confirms that packaging at destination is the alternative for the wine sector's future
The world's biggest fair devoted to the bulk wine business just ended
After a few months of standstill in the market waiting for the WBWE launching, some of the year's largest business transactions have been carried out throughout these past two days in Amsterdam
New trends in a constantly changing sector have been discussed within the framework of one of the most decisive forums for the wine industry: the WBWE
Today was the last day of the 11th WBWE in which 260 wineries from 24 different countries (more than 450 producers) have participated and 6,000 professional visits from 60 different nationalities have been received.
The WBWE is the sole fair in the entire world that is capable of gathering 80% of the global bulk wine supply throughout two days and in a single place; therefore, it is the biggest international encounter devoted to packaging at destination and private labels.
The WBWE has hosted major international operators, as well as professionals from different fields of the sector and companies of all sizes throughout these past two days. A wide range of supply alongside a business model focused on profitability has turn the WBWE into the fair where more contracts and agreements regarding wine to be packed (both in origin or at destination) are reached.
Producing countries such as Spain, France, Italy, Argentina, South Africa, Chile and Australia have once again had a substantial representation in this fair, but also new market players which are increasingly gaining importance in global trade, such as Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria and Macedonia, have participated in the fair and also in the IBWC (these countries won six gold medals); therefore, we can say that Eastern countries have made a strong impression, both in terms of production and quality.
Quality has probably been the motto during this year's fair. Spectacular quality was evaluated in the International Bulk Wine Competition (IBWC) and diverse and remarkable qualities were displayed all over the fair. In the WBWE, wineries with premium bulk wines had the best platform in order to find the appropriate purchases for their products, ensure traceability and choose the final destination for their high-range bulk wines.
Wines with a Designation of Origin or a Protected Geographical Indication, vines with a varietal indication, generic wines intended for blends, sparkling wines, aromatized wines such as vermouth, brandy or even spirits were displayed at the WBWE and available for its attendees: every potential demand in a creative and risky market could be found in this fair.
Simultaneously with the beginning of Madrid's Climate Summit, the WBWE has once again visualized the sector's need for a commitment to a greener industry: something that clearly includes packaging at destination. This complex and much needed topic for discussion was at the core of the cycle of conferences that took place during these past two days and was entitled: The bulk wine challenge: environment, climate change and new business opportunities, with the participation of experts such as Pau Roca, OIV's director general, Deborah Parker Wong, professor, Steve Daniel, buyer at Hallgarten Wines in the UK.
Another hot topic during the fair was the key role of alternative packaging methods, such as canned wine, bag-in-box, kegs, etc. This subject is very much linked to new consumers; and, with regard to this issue, the bulk wine sector is playing a leading role.
The WBWE organizers believe that business and trade have to be accompanied by debate and discussion on trends for the future; and subsequently, it should be pointed out the success of The Art of Blending Wine (the world's sole seminar entirely devoted to this subject), which is held as part of the WBWE.
The synergies and discussions on the aforementioned topics allow professionals to take the best decisions and to find the best solutions regarding their daily issues both in laboratories and in vineyards.
Today, the 11th WBWE Amsterdam ended after crucial considerations that we should bear in mind and with a view to the WBWE Asia, which will be held on the 29th and 30th of May 2020 in Yantai (China): a not-to-be-missed event in order to understand the Asian market and, more importantly, to operate there in a cost-effective manner.

Kim Kardashian Hollywood user reviews :
Love the game and it's speed with no ads and stupid stuff
I have been having a hard time keeping up with this game. I am a busy mother to a toddler and don't like losing fans in the game. Sometimes I forget to go back to a challenge. Could you POSSIBLY take away the energy? Keep everything else but the energy so it gives us players & busy moms a chance to do amazing in the game. I would greatly appreciate it. I have been watching KUWTK since Season 1 Episode 1. I love the family and want to love this game. I just don't love the energy restriction.
Honestly, I really like this game! I think the energy points are sort of annoying though. If you could give us more every 3 minutes we run out? Or no waiting at all? I know, that the energy points are probably going to have to stay, because they're sort of important, but could you give us 5 plus every 3 minutes we run out? I do really love this game though! The storyline is great, and I love the way you take in a celebrities point of view, like enemies on social medias, and keeping fans entertained, overall its a great game, just waiting for energy is a bit of a downer for me. Thanks so much for reading, I hope you take this rate into consideration, and hopefully improve this game.

One lucky slots player is sure to be celebrating big time throughout 2019. The 65-year old lady hit the biggest NetEnt jackpot to be issued so far this year. She was playing online at Betsson Casino on the Mega Fortune Dreams slot and managed to trigger the progressive jackpot win of €4,333,667.97. This mega win just goes to prove that when a machine is due to pay out, it can pay on wagers of any level.
This is the second March huge jackpot payout on Mega Fortune Dreams as another player struck it lucky with a win of €3,542,863 earlier in the month.
About The Latest Win
The lucky player to hit this latest jackpot had been playing €4 spins on a number of machines at Betsson Casino, before moving on to her favourite Mega Fortune Dreams slot. She hit the jackpot almost straight away and managed to achieve the big win most players only ever dream about.
If you've never played this game before, you'll perhaps want to check it out and see what actually makes it so special:
Mega Fortune Dreams is a 5-reel slot with three rows and 20 paylines. As well as the progressive jackpot, which can be accessed from the roulette wheel bonus, it offers wild substitutes, free spins with multipliers and retriggers.
The triple progressive jackpot game winnings are displayed at the point the roulette wheel bonus is triggered and these wins will vary between different casinos.
Netent Reaction
The Managing Director of NetEnt Malta, Henrik Fagerlund said: "We're thrilled to announce the latest jumbo jackpot winner on Mega Fortune Dreams. Players know that the game is proven to pay out the biggest prizes – just as this €4.3 million windfall shows – and we are delighted for the latest recipient of a life-changing sum."
Recent Win On Jackpot King
Another massive jackpot win at Paddy Power online gave chef Sean Doyle the biggest adrenaline rush he's ever likely to experience. A £10 stake on the Mars Attacks slot on Valentine's Day hit the progressive jackpot on the Jackpot King game giving Sean a win of more than £4,2mn.

Where are Nigeria's top 30 under 30?
Over the weekend, I attended an event for young entrepreneurs and I was impressed that hundreds of people came from different provinces across Canada. The room was buzzing with conversations and filled with people with insatiable thirst for challenge, opportunity – a personal calling. I couldn't help but wonder what a scene like that involving young Nigerians would transform into.
Nigeria may soon be the fifth most populous country in the world and the population of her youth is staggering. Even more shocking is the lack of opportunity that's available to those youth. Like young people everywhere in the world, many young Nigerians aspire to become successful entrepreneurs, movers and shakers, but are unable to get that big break due to certain constraints. Young Nigerians can't find opportunities to put their skills to the test. Which makes me wonder: is Nigeria turning a blind eye to her youth?
Disappointedly, I came empty-handed in my research to find some successful young Nigerian magnates, movers and shakers under the age of 30. Finding a handful was scarce, talk about 30. Where are Nigeria's young entrepreneurs and freedom fighters? Here is the few I found:
Jennifer Ehidiamen

Onibalusi Bamidele

Website – http://www.youngprepro.com
The scoop – Oni is a young internet entrepreneur starlet who's giving a whole new meaning to blogging. He has guest posted for over 300 blogs. Want to know more, check out his website!
Nmachi Jidenma

The scoop – Nmachi Jidenma currently works at Google where she is working to drive technology and internet usage in African Universities. She is founder of Celebrating Progress Africa, a new online crusade to reshape the Africa conversation. She started by blogging about progressive things happening in Nigeria on her Facebook page and has now grown the platform to a full website that has attracted more than 18,000 likes on Facebook. She has gained working experience at JPmorgan and at Accenture and has written extensively for The Next Web, Reuters, and Next Newspapers. She bagged a Masters in Applied Economics & Management from Cornell University, New York.
Toyosi Akerele
Age – 29
Website – https://twitter.com/#!/toyosirise
The scoop – Toyosi Akerele is a youth advocate and education expert. She is the Executive Director of a RISE Group, a fast growing company with interests in publishing, printing, library, media and youth events. She started the RISE business academy in July 2008 to add value to young career people. She is a law graduate from the University of Jos and University of New Hampshire. Toyosi's RISE summit has attracted huge crowd across Nigeria and her seminar have been estimated to reach 100,000 young people across Nigeria. Toyosi has won numerous awards including the Nigerian Youth Leadership Award, the Future Awards and most recently was selected for the Women in Distinction award (Thisday awards) by the Thisday Newspapers. She was one of a handful of African young women who had an audience with Michelle Obama on her visit to South Africa.
I'm sure there're many more young Nigerians out there who are shaking things up. Do you know of any?
Nigeria's Top 30 Under 30 are people with forward-thinking, innovative ideas and are making a difference in society – on a local, national and international scale.

ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI)-- A North County homeowner spends almost $4,000 to stop a roof leak. She's really frustrated because he won't come back to fix his mistakes. The job started in June 2012. Over a year later she calls Contact 2 for help.
During the March 2013 storms, Janet Morrow noticed her roof leaked. She thought it was odd because months before she hired a roofer for a different leak.
"He came back one time, and he put a few shingles up to try to make it stop. And when I called to let him know that it started in another part of my house. He never would come back," she stated.
The quality of his work was less than satisfactory. Contact 2 reached out to Jim Compton of Compton Roofing. We asked him to check it out. He fixed some problem areas. "They put shingles on a flat roof section, which is totally taboo in the industry. We had to remove all the shingles and put on the proper roofing material," he said.
Compton says the leaks should stop. But the original contractor was pretty sloppy on the siding as well. Compton says know the law, especially if the contractor is offering enticements.
"I`m going to take care of your deductible. I`m going to give you a free upgrade. The adjuster can`t bring a roofing contractor in, and work together with him to represent them in behalf of the homeowner," he continued.
And finally consumers now have five days instead of three to change their mind after signing a contract. Protecting the consumer is why Compton stepped forward. He says Janet Morrow was a victim of circumstance and sold a bill of goods. Remember you should not turn over the original insurance check to contractors. They should be paid in installments. And you don`t want to fall for any incentives.
Call us with your consumer issues. The number is 800 782-2222. We take calls Monday through Thursday between 11am and 1pm.

LISA Guildford's children probably know her neighbours better than she does.
They play out in the street so often that they have developed strong relationships with the other residents in their cul-de-sac in Miskin, Pontyclun.
In fact children are such a feature in the street that a sign has been erected at Beechlea Close entreating motorists entering the area to "Please Slow Down, Children At Play".
It is something Mrs Guildford, 38, and her husband, Ian, noticed while they were on holiday in Devon one year and wanted to have in their own street, to know that they had done as much as possible to safeguard their children, without keeping them locked up indoors.
"I wrote a note to my neighbours asking if they felt happy with me putting a similar sign up in our street and I had some phone calls from people whose children have grown up, saying they fully supported it and would happily help pay for it," said Mrs Guildford, an accountant.
She and her husband, a police-officer, have five children - Sarah, 10, Lydia, seven, Georgia, five, and twins Nicholas and Phoebe, aged two.
"The neighbours say children playing outside brings the street to life. In some ways my children are more interactive with the neighbours than we are. In fact one time I found out my five and seven-year-olds had gone around asking if people wanted to buy paintings they made one afternoon and I was mortified!
"I told them to go and give the money back, but they said that some people had really liked them and had stuck them on their fridges. If the neighbours are out in their garden the children will go and speak to them, especially the elderly couple round the corner.
"My children know they mustn't knock on doors if they don't know someone, but if anything happened they could go to any door here and get a positive response in an emergency.
"In today's society there are not a lot of opportunities for them to have interactions with people outside our control, but this is one area they have their own existence, and it makes them more able and confident talking to grown ups."
She added her children are learning what is and what isn't acceptable behaviour and how to resolve issues themselves.
