I think the title of this post should actually be "Why Cell C's marketing team should consider a career in sales". Now, I'd imagine Trevor Noah (tw) to be a pretty smart guy, but to be sold into becoming the face of a widely considered struggling brand, they must have sold him the world. Not just in payment, but in the overall strategy going forward. And well done to them.
I don't recall Cell C (tw) getting as much exposure as they have over the past few weeks, ever. It started off with praise and applause, then the 'it was all a scam' fiasco when everyone (particularly journos who felt like their little feelings were hurt for being betrayed) slated the campaign at every opportunity. Now the logo story. When will it end? It probably has. And all Cell C can do from here is improve, because they are, essentially, starting from the bottom. And I have a feeling that they will.
Why? Because what the've done is completely polarise themselves to the market. You get the people who love what they've done, and the people who absolutely hate it. Both sides have the same amount of interest in waiting for what they'll do next, and both sides are so passionate about their standpoints that they will vehemently argue over any platform, live or online, to try and prove their point. The result: A conversation about the brand. Awesome. So now Cell C has the whole country focussing on their next move, and when you have that much pressure to perform, you work your ass off to make it happen.
On the other side though, what if they don't? What if this all came too suddenly, they're not prepared for it, and Cell C loses everything? What does this mean for their new CEO?
Trevor has become the face, the captain of this huge faceless ship. It's a lot easier for us to blame individuals when things go wrong, because shouting at a large cold building never helped anydoby. It's exactly what they wanted to achieve with the new campaign: Speak to an individual (Trevor) and he'll sort you out. People buy in to that. But it has it's disadvantages too.
Bottom line: If the brand you advocate goes down, you're going down with them. It's the captain's duty. Let's just hope the powers that be (unfortunately I don't think Trevor is one of them) can steer this ship past the iceberg and sail it to greener pastures.

Course Overview
Available to: Grades 4-12
Available as: In-Class Workshops, Lunch/After 4 Programs, Private Group Sessions
The course that turns learning basic financial literacy upside down – from boring and tedious, to fun and inspiring! Be warned, however, that this program will also turn your home life upside down – from "Mom, Dad, give me money," to "Mom, Dad, give me money for my RESP!"
We have created an empowering financial literacy program that features interactive group activities, easy-to-understand visual presentations, a "net worth" tournament, and highly charged discussions. Major topics include:
- DEBT: What is it? How does it all work? Who exactly do I owe money to?
- Credit scores, credit cards, student loans, and payday loans are thoroughly examined.
- SAVINGS: Why should I save? How much can I save if I start now? How do I save?
- Chequing and savings accounts, bank fees, and the mindset of saving (and not wasting) are thoroughly covered.
- We also look closely at what it really costs parents to keep their little darlings clothed, fed, and programmed for one year, as well as an outline of life's big expenses, like education, real estate and retirement.
In an era filled with unrelenting consumer advertising, false images of financial success, and easily accessible credit, this course teaches students how to be financial leaders, not financial victims; to be true to who they are when they manage their finances; and to understand how their financial choices impact not only their own lives in the short and long term, but also the world around them.
How does this program connect to the school curriculum?
This program has many cross-curricular benefits that help buttress the existing Ontario curriculum. To keep this simple (and brief), we are listing some of the big ones in point form here to give a sense of how enriching this program is.
This program does not emphasize mathematical calculations, however, math still plays a large part, and students gain fluency and a comfort in working with percentages, with basic calculations, and with the consideration of the larger, "real" numbers that are involved in the costs of goods and services ranging from after school programs to real estate.
The student group activities, particularly the net worth tournament materials, require students to read, listen, consider, and comprehend, what are mostly new concepts, accompanied by the application of considerable vocabulary learned during every lesson.
The language benefits derived from this program cannot be understated.
One of the primary aims of the program is to encourage students to apply critical thinking practices around financial choices, media, and other real-life situations that they are likely to encounter or have encountered already.
Throughout the workshop there is a focus on values and character and how this connects to managing one's finances. Identifying and reflecting on one's values as a way to guide choices and take positive actions is an integral part of the workshop's message.
Efforts are made throughout the program to encourage students to build dialogue with their family members. Opportunities are offered at many stages for interactions regarding those dialogues.
The primary learning skills evident throughout the workshop include Collaboration, Responsibility, and Self-Regulation. Opportunities exist for interest teachers to gain additional evidence for these in their students.
All workshops are highly differentiated, both by school demographic and by student grade. Additionally, within each lesson, instructors are trained to differentiate their instruction in terms of groups activities (e.g. through character scenarios) as well as through appropriate language and examples.
Students will be introduced to the use of Excel spreadsheets, and Smartboard technologies are used whenever possible in the classroom. Moreover, a number of technological enhancements are currently under development, including an interactive website to be used by students, and the use of tablets during lessons.

Two Woodlands Companies to Host Lunch Forum on Cybersecurity
By: Woodlands Online | Published 08/20/2019
On Friday, September 20, 2019 Tech Mahindra and Maxxsure will be hosting a cyber risk management lunch forum in The Woodlands featuring special guest speaker Paul Cunningham. Mr. Cunningham currently serves as Chief Information Security Officer with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and formerly served as CISO of the U.S. Department of Energy. Mr. Cunningham's wealth of experience has earned him recognition as one of the world's foremost experts on cybersecurity and cyber risk management. The knowledge and experience shared by Mr. Cunningham will stimulate conversation among attendees concerning the challenges of cyber risk management that faces many kinds of organizations. Following the presentation, attendees may participate in a facilitated discussion focused on solutions for attaining improved cyber resilience with greater efficiency.
This is the second of an ongoing series of events co-hosted by Tech Mahindra and Maxxsure. The companies have stated that the goal of these forums is to be a vehicle to promote their shared vision of removing fear, uncertainty, and doubt from the cyber risk management conversation.
In keeping with this mission, the September 20 lunch forum will also address the rapidly emerging topic of cyber risk quantification and how this metric creates a foundation from which objective, data-driven decisions can be made about cyber risk remediation and transference with cyber insurance.

When you have a small cleaning business, you need a stable client base to grow your business and succeed. Everyone needs clean homes and offices to stay healthy and prevent insect infestations. Whether you clean for residential or commercial customers or both, getting clients that fit your business plan requires research and commitment. Although some clients may seem to fall in your lap, cleaning business owners must usually seek out potential clients and use engaging and attractive marketing tactics.
Choose and Market to Your Clientele
To be successful in the cleaning industry, we hold the opinion that you always need to specialize. Cleaning is a massive industry and it's hard to be able to do everything, the best cleaning companies tend to choose their niche / service and do it better than everyone else. So decide what you want to do, whether it's home cleaning, office cleaning, tile and grout cleaning, there is no shortage of services to choose from in our industry.
Create a list of characteristics you're looking for in clients. For example, you might prefer commercial clients to residential ones, clients within 20 Kilometres of your business or clients in affluent neighborhoods.
Advertise to clients from this target market in a region using traditional neighborhood or regional newspaper, magazine, radio, TV and direct mail advertising if your budget allows. If it doesn't, advertise locally via other methods: hang flyers in areas your clients frequent, cold call, and walk into businesses or knock on residential doors to introduce yourself to the neighborhood.
Connect with Other Local Business Owners
Become a member of your local Chamber of Commerce and then supply the Chamber with business cards and flyers for your cleaning business. If you don't know your Chamber's location then you can contact your local council who will be able to direct you.
Join local, national and international cleaning associations such as the BSCCA and other recognized industry groups such as Cleaningsearch. Hand out your business cards and flyers. Ask other members for tips or referrals based on the region you are in and the specific type of services you offer.
Set up referral partnerships with other businesses in the area that deal with customers who usually need professional cleaning services such as schools, interior design firms, construction companies and event hosts and caterers. Even if you don't get referrals, a business owner who utilizes the cleaning services of a professional cleaner may decide to hire your company for his cleaning needs because of your willingness to share clients.
Ask for Referals from Existing Cleaning Customers
Ask your existing clients for referrals to people they believe would benefit from your services. To persuade your existing clients to refer people to you, consider offering a discount for referrals or a cash back bonus for referrals that result in signed cleaning contracts.
Attract new clients to your business by posting engaging content such as articles or videos about cleaning and the cleaning industry including cleaning tips and product information on your website. In addition, post before and after photos of your work on your website along with client testimonials to impress potential clients who visit the site.
Social media is also a big part of the cleaning industry now, be sure to showcase your work and your cleaners. You should try to post on your cleaning company facebook page at least once a week to keep engagement levels up.
This post was written in collaboration with Daniel Simmons from Cleaningsearch which also has a great guide on their website providing tips to start a cleaning business.

While developing a site for a client a need emerged for us to be able to embed Flash files in the content.
To do so you could paste some HTML in the content editor and hope for it not to be parsed away. And to keep it the HTML or XHTML valid while doing so, and to support alternative content might be a bit tricky.
I thought that I would fix this problem using the Shortcode API, and also to make a plugin out of it while I was at it.
The result is Easy Flash Embed!
Embed Flash easily and standard compliant with SWFObject using only a [swf] shortcode!
In the text editor simply write something like:
[swf src="http://www.example.com/my-flash-file.swf" width=300 height=100]
You can even add some alternative content by writing something between the brackets:
[swf src="http://www.example.com/my-flash-file.swf" width=300 height=100]You must have Flash to view this file[/swf]

Film on legendary runner Zátopek to be shot in Helsinki
Prague, July 30 (CTK) - Director David Ondricek will start shooting his film on the legendary Czech long-distance runner and four-time Olympic winner, Emil Zatopek (1922-2000), one of the most expensive projects of Czech cinematography, in Helsinki and other locations next spring, he has told CTK.
The film crew is now waiting for the reconstruction of the Olympic stadium in the Finnish capital, where Zatopek won three Olympic gold medals in 1952, to be completed.
The shooting, including locations in the Czech Republic, is to last one year, Ondricek said in an interview with CTK.
The project has a relatively high budget of 92 million crowns, partially because it will a historical film and the period props and settings are costly. For this film, even period sport equipment and outfits will be needed.
Zatopek won his first Olympic gold medal exactly 70 years ago in a 10-km race in London.
"We will be shooting from about the end of April and continue for the whole year. This film is divided into four parts - spring, summer, autumn and winter. Consequently, we need all seasons of the ear," Ondricek said.
One of the locations will be the Olympic stadium in Helsinki, the reconstruction of which should be completed next year.
"We will be trying to depict the atmosphere of the Olympics in 1952 as authentically as possible," Ondricek said.
This is exactly why the film is very expensive not only from the Czech viewpoint, but also from the international perspective, he added.
Zatopek and his wife javelin Olympic winner Dana Zatopkova, 95, will be played by Vaclav Neuzil and Martha Issova, Ondricek's wife.
Zatopkova herself was the consultant for her role and Issova also received advice from javelin thrower and Olympic winner Barbora Spotakova, Ondricek said.
He has been considering shooting a film based on Zatopek's fascinating life story sice 2007.
The project has received a subsidy of 15 million crowns from the State Cinematography Fund this year. The state also supported the project in the preparation. Ondricek said he hoped that the public Czech Television, which cooperated on the film as a script editor, would also help finance it.
The film will be shot with support of the Czech Olympic Committee (COV).
Ondricek shot a documentary on Zatopek in the past, for which he studied material from the archives of the COV, CT, the Short Film company as well as private sources.

Hey There!
For the last month, every Wednesday morning I did work on a mural painting at a place called "dédale", in Vannes.
It is an old building that is going to be destroyed in 2020.
Until then, the maire has given it to a street art association.
The first levels are project based and selected by a jury and then shown to the public. The levels 2 and 3 are more experimental.
I have been wanting to try my hand on a mural for a long time so I asked to work on the second floor.
It worked well and I enjoyed myself a lot painting on a larger scale.
It took me 4 long mornings to finish this specific wall.
I originally thought of doing the whole room, but the second floor might never be accessible to the public, so all my friends and some artists I met are urging me to rather present a project for level 1, which is going to be seen by the public.
So, that is the next planned step. To write up a proper proposal and submit it. I hope they'll accept it!
In the meantime, you can watch the time lapse of the painting on my youtube channel 🙂

Meat Nest
Well, it's that time of year again!
Actually, with things being the way they have been, I finally had to acknowledge that I would not be able to do our Christmas tourtiere this year.
So my daughters are doing them, instead.
They're not going to be the same as our usual ones, as we weren't able to get the variety of meats we normally use, but the basic recipe is the same. We also won't be making as many as we usually do - probably just 3 or 4 pies. It's still enough to use the big pot, though, which won't fit in our refrigerator.
My daughters made the filling, and now the pot is on the balcony, in its own little meat nest in the snow, to cool down.
Hey, if we're going to be colder than Mars, we may was well take advantage of the situation!

First Cruise Ship Arrives, Unionized Stevedores Back
The first cruise ship of the season is docking in Sydney today and unionized stevedores will be tying it up.
A dispute over the hiring of non-unionized dock workers ended last week, when the Sydney Ports Corporation reversed its decision on the matter.
Members of Unifor Local 4624 and their supporters had threatened to picket the Sydney Marine Terminal when cruise ships were in port.
Peter Gillis with the International Longshoremen's Association says he welcomes the move to continue with unionized stevedores.
The Holland America ship the Veendam is due to dock at the Joan Hariss Cruise Pavillion at 10:00, this morning
It's the first of 79 cruise ships that are scheduled to visit Sydney, this year.
More than 107,000 passengers are expected to pass through the port between today and November 11th.

Depression in teenage girls is a serious mental health problem. Sometimes, we overlook the most obvious signs and symptoms thinking teenage girls are just being moody. But depression is real, anxiety is real, and teenage girls need help to get treatment.
Depression in teenage girls influences how their minds work. It affects their daily mood, mental and physical health, emotions, behavior. All these become major signs and play a role when it comes to their school performances and choosing their circle of friends.
Being upset and moody isn't a temporary feeling, but a constant emotion of anxiety. It becomes a burden, which is why teens must reach out to their loved ones and seek help and treatment.
Depression in Teenage Girls is Sadly a Common Issue
The signs start appearing at an early age and later develop into anxiety which in turn becomes a problem so serious that treatment is needed. Statistics show higher numbers every year.
Parents must be vigilant when it comes to their teenage daughters. They must watch out for their girls during their teen years as they are more vulnerable and just starting to mature.
- According to a large study about children's mental health in the United States, it was found that depression can start at the age of 11.
- 36.1% of girls in the US have been or are depressed by the time they turn 17 years old.
- According to a 2014 study by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), 17.3% of adolescents that had a major depressive episode and suffered from anxiety in 2014 were female.
- As for teenagers in total, 8.7% were 13 years old, 10.7% were 14 years old, 13.0% were 15 years old, 14.1% were 16 years old, 15.1% were 17 years old.
- The same study states that 2.8 million teenagers were depressed at some point in the past 12 months.
- Around 5% of teens suffer from major depression and anxiety at any one time.
- Depressed teens usually suffer from depressive episodes that usually occur once a year. 20-40% usually have more than 1 depressive episodes and 70% will have it before reaching adulthood. These episodes usually last around 8 months.
- Seasonal depression is another sign to look out for, which usually happens in wintertime. 2% of teens suffer from dysthymia, which is a long-lasting type of depression.
- Bipolar disorder is what depression and anxiety later develop into, and 15% of depressed teens are eventually diagnosed with the disorder.
- 30% of depressed teens later suffer from substance abuse. Less than 33% of depressed teenagers resort to treatment, but 80% can go through successful treatment.
All these numbers are signs that we must pay more attention to what depression in teenage girls can cause.
Signs of Depression in Teenage Girls Can Be Found in Anxiety, Mood Swings, Loneliness, etc.
People tend to miss signs of depression in teenage girls, which is why we should spread awareness on the matter and promote treatment.
Signs of depression in teenage girls are observed when it comes to their behavior at home, school, and social life. There are plenty of signs and symptoms, but they differ according to the severity and degree of the problem.
One of the first signs to watch out for are emotional changes. Signs of emotional changes include sadness, hopelessness, emptiness, frustration, anger, anxiety. Being irritated by minor things or crying out of the blue are considered signs.
Be careful when a teenage girl loses interest in engaging in everyday activities, slowly loses contact with family and friends. Constantly feeling guilty and worthless, developing a low self-esteem, frequently thinking about death and suicide are major signs.
Signs of depression in teenage girls can also be seen in their behavior. These include being frequently tired and having no energy, sleeping too much or not sleeping at all, eating too much or not eating at all, resorting to drugs and alcohol.
Their behavior can also be observed at school when they're constantly absent from classes, have poor academic performance, frequently going to the school nurse due to unexplained body pains.
Appearance can also show us if they're depressed if they neglect the way they look too often it is considered a sign. Having frequent conflicts with your family is another indication.
But, the biggest symptoms that cry out for help is when they suddenly act out and start developing risky behaviors: self-harming and suicide attempts. Teenage girls cry out for help without orally transmitting it. They are in desperate need of treatment.
After noticing all the signs, when is the right time to get treatment for anxiety and depression in teenage girls?
Treatment for anxiety and depression in teenage girls is more successful when it's done as early as possible. First, you must reach out to someone: a loved one, a school counselor, a professional. Sharing your feelings is the first time to recognize that there's a problem.
When going to a mental health professional, the most common treatment they resort to is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). It is based on the combination of the basic principles from behavioral and cognitive psychology of a person who is constantly in a negative mental state.
During the therapy, teens are taught to set themselves free of the negatives patterns and to challenge their negative thoughts. Occasionally, parents are also involved in the treatment.
When anxiety and depression in teenage girls is severe, medication can be used as treatment. Antidepressants are the most common drugs prescribed. Others include Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, etc. All these should be taken with the prescription of a doctor.
There is no simple way to cure depression. Teenage girls must be encouraged to, first of all, work on controlling their stress in order to boost their self-esteem and not be afraid of failure.
When you feel empty and worthless, talk to someone you trust. Reach out to your parents, siblings, best friends when you start feeling depressed. Seek treatment as early as you can to prevent the mental illness from getting worse. You are not alone.

Wanna join the Pin Head Originals gang?
Would you like us to rustle you something up?! We have been peddling pins online for over 3 years and are totally immersed in the pin community. Pin Head is up to date with all the newest styles, finishes and techniques if you want something a bit different we can do something really special. I have created pins from a conversation, a pencil sketch, a photograph. All we need from you is a basic idea. Send us a bunch of google pics over if you like as a starting point. Pin Head founder Amy also has a degree in marketing and is happy to help advise as best she can with tips on promoting your pins, your event or brand. Please see below just some of the designs we have created for other people. Another way to see Pin Head artwork is to follow our instagram page. You will see that we are very versatile and are able to adapt to your brand or given criteria.
Right now this entire business is being run by one little person. There is a designers fee for graphic design services that must be paid in advance of the work being done. This is to protect us from spending hours designing and people pulling out and changing their minds. We hope that sounds fair. This is £35 for each unique design or £70 for stylised backing card and pin design package (simple card designs are included in card price).
Many people come with logos or designs that are very nearly ready to be made into pins. I do not charge for simple amendments. If you're not sure please get in touch here.
This is the first commission that Pin Head did. Mattas Amy's (PH founder) previous employer asked could she design and create a pin badge to celebrate their family business; an international food shop based in Liverpool's busy Bold Street. The shop has quite a loyal following due to being open for 30+ years. It was a pleasure to work on this very bespoke and personal project. A painting depicting the street was created for the backing card so the pin badge could sit nestled in the painting. Everyone loved the pins. This is a soft enamel pin with black dyed base, the inspiration for the pin was simply the Mattas shop itself. The backing card was hand-painted and reduced down in size. If you would like to know more about customised cards please ask on the contact form or see if we are available to chat in our chatbox (bottom right corner of your screen).
Baby Jesus Fox
We have been following a dead stuffed fox rise to fame on Instagram for a while now. Baby Jesus Fox is one in a million. His owner (who has the papers to prove he was roadkill) has been dressing the little critter up as celebrities and everyone has fallen in love with him. We were ecstatic to work with one of our heroes. We tried to capture the fun-loving nature of BJF in the pin. His fans went wild for the pins and they sold out in a matter of days. We often get requests for pins for peoples pets but this one was something a little bit different! This is a hard enamel pin with black nickel outline. The teeth have been screen printed on because they are so small.
Bromborough Bowl
This bowling alley pin for Bromborough Bowl in the Wirral was a treat. The design brief was simply to create something fun and colourful to award children visiting the bowling alley for their birthday. The backing cards really compliment the pin adding an extra pop of colour. Please ask about backing cards when ordering. This is a soft enamel pin with black dyed base. The pins went down brilliantly with the children and BB have reordered more to keep up with the number of parties they are hosting.
Bongo's Bingo
In 2018 Jonny Bongo of Bongo's Bingo commissioned Pin Head to create a 9 piece pin set, which would be gifted to their staff and venue hosts. This was an excellent challenge, Pin Head was a fan of the Liverpool brand; a cross between good old fashioned (2 little ducks style) bingo that your nan like to play and a rave. It sounds nuts and it is! The task was to depict some of the key memorable characters and features that the show is famous for. We had a meeting with the team to decide on the pin themes and here we have the set. Anyone who has attended BB, in any of the countries they have operated in, including France, Australia and Dubai will get the references. I can recommend it if it comes to a town near you. The design project was one of our favourites, we love doing character pins. To give the gift a real premium quality feels we even organised branded boxes to house the pin set. Everyone went wild for the limited edition pins. We were inundated with requests. We are always happy to go the extra mile to see your pin related dreams to fruition. Just ask, no idea is too ridiculous.

Toy Soldiers: War Chest Tips and Tricks for beginners
The Toy Soldiers continues its series with its latest launch the Toy Soldiers: War Chest on Xbox 360, but now more players can join the fray as it is now available on various platforms through Ubisoft. If you are the beginner to the Toy Soldiers series then this guide will help you with different strategies and tips you need during the start.
In Toy Soldiers: War Chest you job is to take down the enemies who try to invade in your area. You can do it by placing a good defense in places you think the battle will take place. The below tips will help you with the dos and dont's on the battlefield.
How to set up a Good Defense in Toy Soldiers: War Chest?
You should know how to balance your troops on every side of your base. Lay down the current defense tools especially the cannons and turrets. At the starting position, the key spots which are shown on the map are the prime spots where the waves of the enemies will start invading. On these spots place, you defense very well as these are the final defense.
Start with a couple of turrets as they are very effective with the ground troops. And as you go ahead place some cannons to cover the firepower for the small and big enemies. Cover the ground defense maximum possible as the enemies can invade from any direction. On the other end you should not have it an open invitation for the enemies so do place some cannons and move some of the defense there as well(You should have your field cover on every side on every aspect).
Try to get a hop into a turret or cannon on any point of time and have some fun, as the game is very interactive and allows you to shoot the soldiers when you want them to. If you see that enemies are invading on a certain part of the map then this s the best time to clear them out.
Always be Upgraded:
The one of the best features of the Toy Soldiers: War Chest is you can upgrade your defense instead of replacing them. You need the cash which you earn after defeating the enemies.To upgrade your defense, select any defense structure(turret, cannon or station) and select it from the main menu while some are a bit more time consuming. Once you upgrade you will easily notice the difference between the firing and Armour of the defense station.
Attack with multiple Army:
In Toy Soldiers: War Chest you have to select one of the four factions which will be right for you. The four factions are the military Kaiser class, the girlie toy Star bright, the fantasy-oriented Dark Side and the sci-fi based Phantom which offers various different specialty like the weapons, aerial and land vehicles.
The traditional players of the Toy Soldiers will stick to the Kaiser Class as they were also in the part of the previous series. If you buy the Hall of Fame Edition of the Toy Soldiers: War Chest then you gain access to the new players like G.I. Joe, Masters of the Universe, Cobra and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. All of these players can use their power as well for example He-Man can call the flying orkos in the battlefield.
You can try all the team and check which one suits you best and every team has something best to offer. No matter which team you choose, don't forget to upgrade and adjust the new style of play which will unlock the new potential to have a good fight on your hands.

Why smart brides are going virtual
Virtual Wedding Planning is relatively new, so most couples aren't even aware that this amazing option even exists. A virtual planning experience gives couples direct access to their very own professional wedding planner from the comfort of their own homes. No longer dealing with the headache of trying to find time in everyone's busy schedule to meet and make progress planning their event. No more missed work or sitting in traffic. After all, virtual plans are all about convenience.
What makes these plans most popular is they're more affordable than traditional plans, but just as helpful. While including almost everything you would get with traditional full planning, this option is often less than you'll pay for a DJ. In many aspects Virtual Planning clients have better access to their planner since the meetings can take place more often due to the convenience. Email, call or video chat with your planner to discuss your event whenever you need and have the confidence of knowing your very own expert is always by your side, virtually speaking.
So why would anyone go the traditional route when such an amazing alternative exists? Well, for starters Virtual Plans are not a great option for couples who have little time to spend planning their event. Virtual Planning clients will need to communicate with and choose vendors on their own, but the beauty is that with websites like theKnot and Weddingwire finding vendors is insanely easy. The hard part is making sure you are getting a fair deal and that the contract is solid, which is what a virtual planner will help you with. So basically, virtual plans have adapted to the times and by doing so have found a way to offer couples a modern wedding planning experience that fits within their busy schedules without compromising their budget. Our Virtual Planning clients love having evening video chats while curled up in their pajamas drinking wine. What a time to be alive!

Sales of sacrifice of animals have started on Wednesday (August 7) at 24 cattle market of the capital. It will continue till the day before Eid-ul-Azha.
This year, on the occasion of Holy Eid al-Azha, there are 362 sacrificial cattle market in the country.
Activities in the cattle markets geared up with traders and truckloads of animals making their foray into the capital ahead of Muslims' annual feast of sacrifice.
Visiting different cattle markets, it is found that people from various districts have already reached the city with their sacrificial animals, and most of them are locally reared.
Prices of animals are reasonable compared to last year.
Medium-sized animals can be bought for between Tk. 60,000 and Tk. 1,10,000 and the small-sized ones between Tk. 40,000 and Tk. 50,000.
The Department of Livestock Services (DLS) said that 5,77,416 commercial farms and farmers have around 1,17,88,563 sacrificial animals ready to meet the demand for 1,10,00,000.
Few cattle from India, Myanmar and Nepal were available in the cattle haats. According to UNB correspondent from bordering districts, the cattle inflow from India, both legally and illegally, has dropped significantly this year.
Traders said the sales of sacrificial animals will reach its peak on Saturday and Sunday as many buyers don't have space at their homes to keep the cattle for more than a day before slaughtering for Eid.

We love our local Waterstone's. Their window displays are always creative and inspiring, and I admire their passion for books. The staff is young (much-much younger than me) and so very friendly, it's a real pleasure to chat to them. They know us quite well.
I took this photo of the broomstick and Golden snitch above the counter for Eddie, as he loves all things Harry Potter-related.
My friend Jen and I planned to go to the garden centre last week, but since Eddie was unwell and stayed at home, we had to postpone it. Tuesday was a warm, perfect autumnal golden day. It was a bit weird not to have my boys with us, as Jen takes us to the garden centre by car every school holiday.
We had a chat over a cup of coffee, and then I did a bit of shopping. I needed several bags of compost and a couple of bigger pots to repot my phloxes for winter.
The garden centre displays were a mix of Halloween/autumnal ones and Christmas-themed stalls.
I was walking in the garden, having picked a few apples for cooking, and spotted this weird cloud. I can see a ghostly face with big eyes. Can you see it too?
On Thursday I was feeling pretty rotten, but managed to sit through the Harvest service at the church, where Eddie's school held a Harvest festival.
The reflections from the stained glass on the wall were so pretty, as if the church itself was celebrating together with the children.
My boys love homebaked cookies, and as a TGIF treat, I've baked a batch of oat cookies with Dorset Cereals Spectacular Grains and cocoa nibbles. They are almost all gone by today.


text: Anyone else watch this brilliant piece of Disney-owned animation? It's gotta be the best kid/ adult friendly cartoon since Pinky and the Brain. For the uninitiated, Phineas and Ferb are two step-brothers determined to do something cool and different every day. This usually involves the building of large and complex contraptions in their backyard, including a roller coaster, a monster truck arena, treehouses that become fighting robots, or a gourmet restaurant. Meanwhile, the boys' sister continuously tries to bust the boys, only to have the contraptions disappear just before her mother looks, frustrating her to no end. In the meantime, the boys' pet platypus, Perry, is a secret agent who must foil the latest plans of the evil Dr. Doofenshmirtz to take over the entire tri-state area. It's usually through Agent P and Doofenshmirtz's confrontation that the brother's work disappears- the evil doctor's meltinator gets rid of the ski slope, the Awayinator sends the monster truck arena to a different dimension, etc. Most episodes are about 12 minutes long, so you get two in a half hour. The more you watch, the more you inside jokes and such you catch. The episode 'Thaddeus and Thor' is much funnier if you have 10 or so other episodes under your belt. Anyway, I'll be buying the CD that comes out this week, and am eagerly awaiting the new episode this week, in which the time machine introduced in an earlier results in a future version of Candace visiting the first episode, finally busting her brothers, and setting up a chain reaction that results in Dr. Doofenshmnirtz finally conquering the entire tri-state area. Long post. So what. I'm a fan, and I'll bet there's more out there, too.

CORNING - The Corning Hawks face off against Vestal on Friday, beginning the quest for their first sectional title since 2014.
Head coach George Bacalles returns for his sixth season and isn't changing up his formula for a successful football team.
"Stay on schedule, win the turnover battle and win special teams," Bacalles said.
Corning is coming off a roller coaster season in which it was 3-1 early but dropped its next five games and finished 3-6 for the second consecutive season. Corning then bowed out in the semifinals to eventual Section IV Class AA champion Elmira.
Consistency and growth of the team will be key in sustaining success throughout the long season for Corning.
"Constant improvement," said Bacalles. "Every single week, getting better and better. Building upon each week and not taking steps backward."
The 2019-20 Hawks varsity football team includes 13 seniors, 20 juniors and three sophomores.
Key returners on the offensive side of the ball for Corning include a duo of running backs, Ja'Ovian Fisher and Max Freeman, as well as quarterbacks Joey Ott and Blake VanWoert.
Fisher rushed for 659 yards last year, averaging 7.49 yards per carry, while Freeman amassed 447 yards on the ground and had 14 receptions for 175 yards.
Both VanWoert and Ott saw time at the quarterback position last season. VanWoert started out the year and netted two touchdowns through the air, but his season was cut short by a torn meniscus. Ott completed 71 percent of his passes and threw for 766 yards and nine touchdowns.
Key defensive returners for Corning will be linebackers Seth Hogue, Sam Wakeman and Ott, as well as defensive end Kyle Jankowski.
The first test is Vestal in the Hawks' home opener. The Hawks last won an opening contest in 2016, a 47-7 win over Johnson City.
"We have to come out and play with a lot of energy and intensity, and hopefully we will be able to win," Bacalles said.
Corning also added Mike Johnston to the staff in the offseason. The innovative minded Johnston had been at Elmira before coming back to Corning to be the offensive coordinator. Johnston won a state title with the Corning softball team this past spring.
"He brings a lot of experience, knowledge, enthusiasm and he has the mindset of wanting to win every game and that's exactly what we want to have," said Bacalles about Johnston at the time of his hire. "I welcome his intensity onto our staff and I think we'll be better because of it."

Responding to the UK Government's Autumn Statement, the First Minister Carwyn Jones welcomed the extra capital funding but warned that Wales still faces some very difficult spending decisions.
Welsh people will be hardest hit - Shadow Welsh Secretary
Shadow Welsh Secretary has criticised George Osborne's spending announcements as 'smoke and mirrors' disguising cuts which will hit low-earners in Wales hardest. He gave his reaction to our Political Editor Adrian Masters.
Chancellor's 'humiliating climb-down' - Plaid
Plaid Cymru's Treasury spokesman, Jonathan Edwards, says the Autumn Statement represents an admission that the Chancellor's 'austerity experiment' has failed. He said:
Mr Edwards went on to criticise as 'self-defeating' the decision to fund extra money for capital projects by cutting the budgets of nearly every Whitehall department.
Use extra money to improve transport - Welsh Secretary
Welsh Secretary David Jones has been telling our Political Editor Adrian Masters that the Chancellor has given the Welsh Government exactly what it asked for in his Autumn statement. He said he hoped Welsh Ministers would spend the money on improving transport links across Wales.
And he rejected the suggestion that a reduction in the main budget for Wales meant the UK Government was giving with one hand and taking away with the other. He described it as 'a marginal reduction.'

Chancellor's statement: what will it mean for Wales?
Capital investment 'will help bolster' economic confidence
Wales' First Minister has made a fresh plea to Chancellor George Osborne for more capital investment funding.
Carwyn Jones has joined forces with Northern Ireland's First Minister Peter Robinson, Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness and Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond to make the plea ahead of today's Autumn Statement.
The ministers say that an injection of funding for new business ventures would "support the recovery and help bolster economic confidence".
Adding that they have employed a "variety of innovative measures" to increase funding for major public infrastructure projects but these cannot "fully offset" the cuts from Westminster or their impact in the three countries.
In a statement the ministers said:
"Increasing capital investment by simply cutting departmental budgets will not achieve the increase in demand in the economy that is so urgently needed. This investment must be additional.
This afternoon's Autumn Statement provides the UK Chancellor with an ideal opportunity to invest in growth, support the economic recovery and help bolster economic confidence."

Hi all,This email is moreso a formality so everyone knows how we have been communicating, but wanted to share so everyone is aware, particular with a lot of new team members working on 5.x.However, if you feel strongly against anything here, please lets discuss.TLDR;* Lets default to #aerogear for all chat, discussions etc..* Lets use direct messages, email or #mobile-internal for private chat, discussions etc...Reasons* #aerogear on freenode is already active with 5.x chat & discussions, and has been for ~6 months (it's been active a lot longer than that for mobile things)* having a central place for chat increases the likelihood of getting help or feedback, particularly if people across different teams hit the same issues and have solved it already. It also increases visibility of work other teams are doing, which can avoid duplication & encourage collaboration* we are all part of 1 larger team working on the same goal. Lets not exclude or silo ourselves* #aerogear is public/open. 5.x development is all upstream/open. Removing any barriers to building an open community, which we are all the foundation of, makes sense-- David MartinRed Hat MobileTwitter: @irldavemIRC: @irldavem (#aerogear)

If your leather has developed a whitish coating, you might be forgiven for assuming that it's mould. In fact, it could well be a fat mark.
This is caused when residual fat from the leather rises to the surface, usually as a result of fluctuations in temperature and humidity. At first glance it looks like white mould.
The causes of fat or grease marks on the leather surface are different and affect several steps in the tanning process. Inadequate degreasing of natural fats in the skin, as well as the oils and fats used for rehydration can promote fat rashes.
These grease marks are no real cause for concern. They emerge almost exclusively in leather clothing and leather bags. Car interiors, shoes and upholstery leathers are rarely affected.
Unfortunately for the tanner, this phenomenon does not arise immediately after the production of the leather, but weeks later. Most of it happens whilst still inside the transporting container or when the leather items are packed in plastic. But changes in humidity play a big role, especially once the fat has emerged, and it will reoccur after cleaning.
Unlike with mould, heating can make fat temporarily invisible as shown on the image below.
Where fat marks can occur
Firstly, fat marks are common in new material, which was manufactured in Asia and packed into transport containers. Goods packaged in plastics in very humid places cause the tanning to sweat out during delivery.
Fat marks can also appear on old leathers treated with waxy care products. Excess sweating can occur when temperatures or humidity rise. As mentioned, fatty stains can be mistaken for mould. To check, simply run a hair dryer over the affected area. Wax or grease will temporarily melt and disappear, whereas mould will stay the same.
You can keep light fat marks under control with the hairdryer method. Fat reacts to heat so, after just one application, the marks will be gone.
For medium fat stains on water-resistant leathers, the following procedure is recommended: clean the leather with a mixture 1:10 of Colourlock Leather & Fur Wash Concentrate and water. Apply thin layers of the solution using a wet cloth and let dry on its own or use a hair dryer to speed up the process. Protect the surface with the Colourlock Leder Fein Care & Waterproofing Oil. Although this cannot guarantee that the problem will not re-occur, this method is much faster than the constant blow drying and wiping. More solid fat or wax which causes the stain is diluted gradually and loses its effect.
Professional cleaning with solvents will be required in order to completely degrease the leather to make the fat rashes disappear permanently. The same applies to porous leather and water-sensitive smooth leathers. Professional cleaning is often a good idea for large quantities (like container goods).
The science bit
This test has been developed by Gerber Anderas Ollert. Even if he was not scientifically verified, his testing work has always been helpful.
Add 50-100 ml of tap water in a 500ml lab beaker with a large opening. Cut a piece of leather to be tested so it fits the beaker. Fix the leather with a rubber band over the opening of the beaker. The leather piece should also fit into the container. Place the leather with the grain side upwards and close the beaker with it. Heat the water and cook for 2 minutes or longer if the leather is thick. Steam should emerge from the visible scars.
This should shrink the leather. Dry the beaker entirely. Place the leather piece inside the container and make it airtight with plastic wrap and a rubber band. Leave for 3-5 days at temperatures from 20-25°C. If the leather hasn't developed any fat marks during the test, then no fat rash is to be expected by the end customer.
Top Tips!
- Use a hair dryer to melt the fat and wipe it away

THE PRESTIGIOUS Inland Waterways Festival could come to Huntingdonshire in 2007, attracting as many as 10,000 visitors. The annual Summer Bank Holiday event, the biggest in the inland waterways calendar, has never been held on the River Great Ouse, though
THE PRESTIGIOUS Inland Waterways Festival could come to Huntingdonshire in 2007, attracting as many as 10,000 visitors.
The annual Summer Bank Holiday event, the biggest in the inland waterways calendar, has never been held on the River Great Ouse, though it once took place on the River Nene in the north of the district.
The Environment Agency, which looks after both rivers, is now talking to riparian landowners in the district about where the event could be staged.
The attraction would bring an important boost to the local tourist economy. Ironically, word slipped out on the day that businesspeople in the district took Huntingdonshire District Council to task over plans to abandon direct public access to Huntingdon's tourist information centre.
The centre, which is situated in the town's library in Princes Street, near the bus station, will close when the library moves later this year to temporary premises behind the police station in Dryden House as part of a £30million redevelopment scheme.
There will be no place for the tourist office in the replacement library building that should open on the present site some time next year.
Although face-to-face tourist information will cease then, the council hopes to resume personal service at the replacement HDC headquarters on the Pathfinder House site in Huntingdon. That is expected to be completed in 2009.
The Environment Agency's waterways manager, John Adams, said he was in the early stage of discussions with several landowners about possible sites for the boating spectacular.
"We are very keen to attract it," he told The Hunts Post. "It draws boats from all over the country."
They would add to the 3,500 craft already on the Great Ouse, nearly all of them privately owned.
"There are some people who cruise all summer," he added, "and we are really very keen to promote the Ouse."
In the face of criticism of the plan to abandon face-to-face tourism contacts, the council's new leader, Councillor Ian Bates, said most requests for tourism advice were now made via the internet.
Chief executive David Monks stressed that tourism was extremely important to the district's economy, but he believed it would be at least two years before a credible face-to-face contact could be re-established in the town.
* St Neots will retain its staffed tourist information centre. The decision to withdraw the facility from Huntingdon between closure and demolition of the library building and opening of the customer service centre in Huntingdon was taken in February last year.

Friday is here! That means a wonderful weekend with my family and my church family. It also means a Fill in the Blank blog post. I link up with The Little Things we Do. Check out her blog.
1. My best quality is you never have to guess what I'm thinking. I just tell you. This could be good or bad.
2. One of my less flattering qualities is I'm not good with change….(not the coin type)
3. I'd rather be reading .
4. Something I have been challenged with lately is to spend my change (coins) more wisely. A blog post will be coming on this soon.
5. I am looking forward to our trip with Little E to Florida sometime in the near future. We almost have all our money saved up!
6. A super random factoid about me is I have to make sure the oven is turned off completely before I go to bed. I check it about four or five times.
7. I want to spend more time focused on others (particularly Little E and my friends) and less on me.Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
Blessing: I'm off today at 3 instead of 5:30!!!!

The Nun's Kiss
Yeah: you know you're going to tell this one at a party this weekend!
A cabbie picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver
won't stop staring at her. She asks him why is he staring and he
replies, "I have a question to ask you but I don't want to offend you."
She answers, "My dear son, you cannot offend me. When you're as
old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to
see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."
"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."
She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that: first, you have to be single and second, you must be Catholic."
The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I am single and I'm Catholic too!
"OK," the nun says "Pull into the next alley."
He does and the nun fulfills his fantasy with a kiss that would make a
hooker blush. But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts
"My dear child," said the nun. "Why are you crying?"
"Forgive me sister, but I have sinned. I lied, I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."
"That's OK," the nun says. "My name is Kevin and I'm on my way to a Halloween party."
Funny, follow me on Kindle.
