Day to Day maintenance of the concrete pump ,that in routine maintenance,.The work includes inspection, cleaning, lubricating, tightening, adjusting, leak detection, add hydraulic oil,and so on.
1. hydraulic components check
Due to the complexity of the equipment, we recommend that experts with practical experience in the hydraulic system of check processing.
If you find fault, before carrying out any operation, check the cause and repair the entire loop.
—If you discover the oil has leaked, you should exclude leaked reasons.
—Check the safety valve, hydraulic system steel pipe and hose, soft connection, oil cylinder, find any wear and crack.(The bursting of the tube may lead to very serious consequences).
—Check from the valve to the oil cylinder entrance line, ensure that no outside diarrhea or deformation due to impact and abrasion caused, ensure that the connector is complete and fully tightened.
—replace any damaged pipe immediately.
—Non-change the original set, all of the adjustment and calibration only by professional personnel to complete.
—Non fucks hydraulic components, Otherwise the manufacturer to the product guarantee and liability shall not be responsible for.
△ Warning
—Since the hydraulic oil can reach high temperatures, and has the risk of scald, so,appropriate protective measures should be taken before the open pipe fittings.
—Any replacement parts must conform to the level specified by the manufacturer.
2. lubrication checks
Electric grease pump lubricant should ensure adequate and clean at any time, lubrication piping joints shall not has the spill phenomenon. Check lubrication of the operation site at any time, found that there is a lack of oil site, stop the machine immediately and check to prevent accidents.
—Check the effectiveness of centralized lubrication system everyday.
—Lubrication system distributor to be observed at any time during operation, if you find that the indicator rod pop-up, then should be ready to deal with, and check shown lubricating pipe is blocked or not.
—After the grease pump is empty, add oil often due to the cause of the bubble is not easy to pump out. In this case, open the discharge of the pump the gas plug, the operation oil pump until the grease outflow.
Centralized lubrication system no coverage of lubrication point,( Such as the swing arm small oil cylinder four pin shaft and joint bearing, etc), use manual fatliquoring gun lubrication, lubrication cycle for 1 to 2 days.
—Check the oil and grease level.
—Mechanical structure with grease to prevent surface exposed.The long-term placement of equipment to fully lubricate all parts.
△ Warning
Before lubrication, clean lubricants mouth to prevent foreign impurities intrusion damage to the shaft and sleeve. Lubrication part was completely filling the new fat can get good lubrication.
Concrete piston lubrication can ask in the water tank by adding an appropriate amount of oil or hydraulic oil.
The equipment operating for a period of time, should be carried out for all of the connection site after the secondary fastening. Often need to check the the fastening bolt connection site:
—Concrete cylinder, rod bolts and nuts—Cylinder connector connected to the rack bolts
—S valve discharge joint bolt
—Lord oil cylinder connecting bolts at both ends
—the oil pump oil suction and discharge port and line connection bolt
—valve housing and hopper fixed bolt
—mixing blade fixing bolt
—valve box fixed bolt
—the oil pump and pump base, pump seat and floor, electrical motors and support the retaining bolt
—pipeline card hoop bolt
4. Adjust
It means that maintenance adjustment does not include performance moderator.
When concrete pump work after a period of time, S tube, glasses plate, wear-resisting bad all would because of wear and produce a certain degree of clearance, if the clearance is too large, it will affect the normal pumping. Therefore, we should adjust and change, wear can clearance from cleaning clean hopper in measurement.
When the gap is greater than 0.7mm, to adjust the S behind the tube axis of the nut, the S tube wear ring with the glasses between the plate gap adjustment in the 0.1-0.2mm is appropriate, if cut through between the wear ring and the glasses, platestight, and the S tube will not be able to swing into place.
After multiple gap adjustment, if you can not be adjusted, and the gap more than 1mm (or any of a groove than 1.5mm), should be considered to replace or repair the spectacle plate and wear ring.

Vacation Time--Check Out The Available Rentals
I have actually been all over the country, having visited 46 of the continental states. This country is amazing. A friend and I decided to take a trip from Missouri to another state. We weren't sure where to go at first but decided to visit some friends of mine who live in Myrtle Beach, S.C.
What a trip! We had so much fun. The beaches are fantastic. The people are great. We even found the tourist traps and loved them! If you want to find a great place to go, I suggest Myrtle Beach, S.C. simply because it is incredibly beautiful there. Golfers love Myrtle Beach. Golf widows do too. They can shop! It's a great tradeoff.
When you head to Mrytle Beach, I suggest that you book your vacation rentals in advance. They have so many possibilities there but they also fill up fast in season. Don't wait. VLBO Vacation Rentals might just have what you are looking for. I checked out their site and they have some really classy places in North Myrtle Beach. So, why wait?

If you run an eCommerce store and not satisfied with your sales, you might be thinking about several ways to improve the same. Starting a shop on some popular marketplace is one such idea that might have surely came into your mind. Well! If so, this is a good decision as it will help you to leverage the traffic and customer base of an already established marketplace and generate some serious sales for your business.
The aim here is to expand the reach so as to generate desired revenue from the business. However, It might be a tough task to manage two shops on different domains at the same time. Therefore, I am going to explain how can you manage being a seller on a popular marketplace like Etsy and manage your own eCommerce site at the same time.
PrestaShop – Etsy connection
Both your website and selling on Etsy shop are important; managing both the entities separately is not an easy task, though. You need time, effort and man power to make sure everything goes as planned. It made us realize, if we can integrate your eCommerce site and a marketplace like Etsy, it will curtail a huge burden at once by allowing a store owner to sell on the marketplace directly from his eCommerce store. Thus, saving a you need for separate operation of both the entities.
A PrestaShop-Etsy connection is a similar approach that works by integrating an interface on the PrestaShop back-office which possess the controls and configurations for:
- Synchronizing the updates and changes in the stock
- Managing orders received from Etsy product listing
- Preparing product feed for Etsy listing
- Preparing different profiles for Product listing
- Preparing product Shipping options for Etsy orders
- Setting up an Etsy API configuration to establish the connection
1. The connection setup
To start selling on Etsy Marketplace you need a seller account on Etsy. Create a seller account on Etsy marketplace before you can set up a Prestashop-Etsy connection. After registering the seller account, you need to setup an App on Etsy to get the API details.These API details are used by PrestaShop-Etsy integration module to setup a connection between the store and the Etsy seller account.
2. Shipping management for Etsy
Next,you will need to prepare the product feeds and upload it to the Etsy product listing.However, before your PrestaShop products are visible on your Etsy seller profile,you need to make sure that you have configured the shipping options.The customers on the marketplace would want to see what shipping options are available with the product and when it is going to delivered to them. So,it's really important that you update the shipping options and let your customers on Etsy stay informed about them.
PrestaShop Etsy integration module can be utilized for configuring the shipping templates by updating various information required by the Etsy marketplace.
3. Product Feed management for Etsy
When shipping options are configured and ready for mapping with different products, you can prepare product feeds that will be shown on the Etsy marketplace. The product feeds are created based on the profiles, category mapping, and attribute mapping between the store and the marketplace. Creating a new profile will have the options to perform category mapping and attribute mapping according to which the list of products will be shown. From this list of products, you can select those products on your store which you want to upload on the Etsy marketplace.
4. The order management
In a standard Etsy seller account, when your products become visible on the marketplace, you start receiving order for them. A PrestaShop Etsy connection works efficiently to let you manage these product orders from the PrestaShop dashboard itself. Now, based on the order status mapping between the PrestaShop and Etsy marketplace, you can update the order status and perform all the order management task from your PrestaShop back office itself.
Etsy product orders are listed on the PrestaShop dashboard as shown in the figure below:
Watch how to connect Prestashop store with Etsy Marketplace
This is how a PrestaShop-Etsy integration works to allow an eCommerce site receive orders directly from the Etsy marketplace. An effective PrestaShop-Etsy connection lets you perform all the activities of a seller account from the PrestaShop admin panel itself. Knowband's PrestaShop Etsy integration module is one such PrestaShop module that you can leverage to generate heightened conversions on your store. It's time you accept the importance of being a part of a popular marketplace and understand how you can leverage them to generate sales for your business.

Benefits Of A Business Innovation Consultant
A business innovation consultant is any person who can be hired to provide expert knowledge concerning the best ways to tap into the creativeness of your employees so that you can identify the best ideas that can be implemented to create better products and/or services that will attract bigger profits from the customers. The main purpose of hiring the consultant is to ensure that you are making use of all ideas available which can contribute to any amount of positive growth for your company, and therefore it is important that you give him a chance to interact with the different processes at your company and your workers so that he can identify any hidden talents. There are many benefits of hiring the business innovation consultant into your company.
The first importance of the consultant is that he will help to guide your workers in the process of making a business model that will be expansive to outline any process that will be followed to achieve important things such as goods and service production as well as marketing of the same to the customers so that a profit can be made. During the business model creation process, the consultant, will encourage that there be creativity in the ideas that are being given, but at the end, he will advise that the idea that has creativity but is sustainable should be adopted so that the business can make profits from the products and service made out of that idea.
Another advantage is that a consultant knows all the important reasons why technology can be beneficial for a growing company and therefore he will guide your staff on the best way to start integrating the computer systems into the firm so that they might be doing all important processes. Technology represents a critical part of human existence today and therefore it is important that it be a part of the strategy that will be used by the consultant to improve your sales.
Thirdly, the consultant try to create a conducive environment within your company which will be friendly for attracting and nurturing talent and innovativeness because all the employees will be challenged to identify their best ideas that can help to reshape the quality of goods and services and therefore they will do their best.
The fourth importance of hiring an innovation consultant is that he will always be in the lookout to notice any opportunity that is not being utilized fully so that it can be put to better use to improve productivity.
The last advantage is that the consultant will create friendships between your firm and other companies which will try to help you while you also help them in a way you can so that both your brands can be given exposure.

This Provencal-inspired stew is full of fork-tender braised beef, hearty red wine and aromatic herbs.
When life gives you a tiny bit more time to think about the day ahead — on weekends, for example — nothing seems more luxurious than getting dinner underway hours in advance.
- 3 pound beef chuck roast
- Kosher salt (Diamond brand)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 shallots, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 4 whole garlic cloves, peeled
- Black peppercorns in a peppermill
- 1 1/2 cups hearty red wine, such as syrah, merlot or Cotes-du-Rhone
- 1 - 2 cups beef or chicken broth or water
- 2 bay leaves and 4 sprigs each thyme and rosemary, tied into a bundle with string
- 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced into 1-inch chunks
- 1 cup chopped leeks
- 1 fennel bulb, stems and tough outer layers trimmed, sliced into 1/2-inch wedges
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Chopped fresh Italian parsley
- Grated fresh orange zest (optional)
- Heat oven to 350 degrees with the rack in the center.
- Trim the beef of excess fat and and slice into 3-inch chunks. Season the beef evenly with 2 teaspoons salt.
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy casserole over medium-high heat. Sear the beef in batches until browned. Remove to a platter.
- Lower the heat to medium and add the shallot to the pot. Cook 5 minutes, stirring every now and then, until it's softened. Return the beef to the pot and sprinkle with flour. Stir in the tomato paste, garlic, wine, 1 teaspoon salt and 15 turns of the pepper mill.
- Bring to a simmer, then add enough broth to just cover the beef. Toss in the herb bundle. Cover the pot with a sheet of parchment or foil, then top with the pot lid.
- Place in the oven to braise for 2 1/2 – 3 hours. The cooking liquid will be slightly reduced and the meat should fall apart when prodded with a fork.

Patrick Frazee, who is charged in connection with the death and disappearance of his fiancée, Kelsey Berreth, was in court with his lawyers Thursday for a child custody hearing.
The Teller County District Court, during a closed hearing, ruled to continue temporary legal custody of the couple's daughter, 1-year-old Kaylee, with the Colorado Department of Human Services, according to a Colorado Judicial Branch news release. Temporary physical custody of the toddler remains with Berreth's parents, her maternal grandparents.
Prosecutors on Monday filed five murder charges against Frazee in the case.
Berreth was last seen alive on Nov. 22, Thanksgiving Day. That day, a security camera inside a Safeway grocery store recorded her shopping with Kaylee, who is also Frazee's daughter. Frazee told law enforcement that he had met Berreth that afternoon to pick up his daughter for a visit.
On Thursday, Human Services requested the hearing be closed and all parties involved agreed, the release said. The court found that closing the hearing to the general public was in the child's best interest.
Attorneys for Berreth's parents, the maternal grandparents, were present in the courtroom, and his clients were connected via telephone, the news release said. Frazee's mother, who is the paternal grandmother, and an aunt were present with counsel. Kaylee's guardian ad litem also attended.
The court is waiting to review discovery in the criminal case against Frazee before proceeding further, according to the release. Human services and the guardian ad litem have discretion to set up visitation with Kaylee's kin.
However, the arrest affidavit, which lays out evidence in Frazee's criminal case, has been sealed. Attorneys are expected to argue over the arrest affidavit's release in a Friday afternoon criminal court hearing in Teller County.
A pre-trial conference is scheduled for Monday.

At times we Chabad chassidim are distinguished by what we do, but at other times, we are distinguished by what we don't do. I am not referring to neglecting something that we should be doing, but to our refraining from following certain minhagim (Jewish customs) followed by many (and sometimes most or even all) other groups, Chassidic or otherwise. Although these minhagim are totally legitimate and sublime ("yesodosom beharerei kodesh"), our Rebbeim taught us not to follow them. Below is a partial list. Chabad chassidim:
- do not grow long pei'yos (sidelocks—see Igros Kodesh, Vol. 20, pp. 9-10);
- do not sleep in the Sukkah (see Likkutei Sichos, Vol. 20, p. 211 ff.);
- do not eat shalosh se'udos (the third meal of Shabbos—see Likkutei Sichos, Vol. 21, pp. 84 ff.), although we do eat a morsel—see HaYom Yom 22 Adar I;
- recite a nusach (prayer text) in which certain prayers and hymns are omitted, such as Aanim zemiros, Veshomru, Yigdal, Akdomos, and so on;
- do not recite Selichos in the Aseres Yemei Teshuvah.
This creates a sort of anomaly. On the one hand, as Chabad chassidim we believe that the derech of Chassidus Chabad is the highest form of serving Hashem. Yet at first glance, the fact that in a number of areas we customarily do less appears to contradict this.
Perhaps the following story can resolve this:
Perhaps the following story can resolve this:
Once I had a private audience with the Rebbe, and the subject turned to the greatness of the Mincha prayer of Erev Shabbos. I asked the Rebbe to explain the reason for the Lubavitcher custom not to recite Shir HaShirim on Erev Shabbos. He told me that the Baal HaTanya was once asked why he doesn't recite Veshomru and Shir HaShirim, which are known to cause a great fair in the supernal realms. He answered that "one doesn't need to attend all the fairs."
The Rebbe said to me that he asked his father-in-law, the Previous Rebbe, for an explanation. His father-in-law answered, "Certainly at the time of Erev Shabbos he was at a more important fair, and thus he doesn't have any free time to take part in this fair."
The Rebbe asked further: "I can understand that the Rebbe is at a higher fair, but why don't the chassidim recite Shir HaShirim, since it causes such a sublime fair." His father-in-law responded, "When the Rebbe is at a more important fair, he drags all his chassidim and those bound with him along as well; thus, they too don't have time to take part in the other fair."
See also Piskei HaSiddur, where a slightly different version of the story is told:[1]
There is a story oft-told among chassidim that Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev, the in-law of the Alter Rebbe, sent him a message (or told him): "When Jews recite the prayer of Veshomru on the night of Shabbos, a fair is held in the heavens; if so, why did you institute that it not be recited?" The Alter Rebbe responded: "A fair is also held in the heavens from the juxtaposition of the prayer of redemption to the Amidah (semichas geula litefillah [and this juxtaposition is missed when one recites Veshomru]), and one cannot attend all the fairs."
In any case, the relevance is clear. We asked why Chabad chassidim don't follow these and other sublime minhogei Yisroel (Jewish customs) and benefit from the sublime divine revelations that they bestow? In light of the above story, the explanation is clear. Through our Hiskashrus (bond) to the Rebbeim of Chabad, when we consciously refrain from observing these holy practices (at the same time keeping ourselves busy with other worthy things that the Rebbeim taught us), we connect with other yet more sublime levels of divine revelation that supersede those experienced via those customs. Put simply, when you connect with a higher derech, you connect with higher revelations (however, it should be noted parenthetically that regardless of which derech one chooses, one should choose one specific derech and follow it consistently—see here).
Perhaps this principle can be applied to various other areas as well, such as the choice of which seforim to study, and the like.
[1] Another similar story: When the Alter Rebbe and Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Barditchev were at the Great Wedding, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak suddenly began dancing (without saying "Kadosh") because he heard how the angels were saying "Kadosh." The Alter Rebbe commented, "One need not dance at every 'Kadosh'"

The House on Friday voted to advance a budget bill after stripping a provision that would have lapsed most of the scheduled funding increases in the event of an unfavorable court ruling over school finance.
Representatives return Saturday morning with plans to tackle a tax bill and fix an $80 million error in public school legislation passed earlier this month.
Lawmakers remain wary of the political ramifications of a special session that will be needed if the Kansas Supreme Court decides the new school funding law is unconstitutional. The Legislature responded to the high court's mandate to provide adequate and equitable funding by passing a plan to phase in about $525 million in increases over the next five years.
If the court isn't satisfied, lawmakers may need to offset additional funding with a tax increase or budget cuts. Rep. Brenda Landwehr, R-Wichita, inserted the budget trigger as a way of framing any adjustments during a special session as enhancements. Her idea was to start over on the budget, dividing leftover cash after the dust settles on litigation.
She defended the proposal in a Friday morning meeting with House Republicans, calling it a "humane" approach for state agencies that otherwise might be counting on the money appropriated to them.
"That is a lot more responsible because it tells all these agencies out there just be very, very careful with what you do with your budgets," Landwehr said.
When the full House took up the debate Friday afternoon, Rep. Steven Becker, a Republican from Buhler, introduced an amendment to remove the potential funding lapse. Landwehr's proposal would have the effect of giving Supreme Court justices the power to make budget cuts, he said.
Referencing the location of the judicial building south of the Statehouse, Becker asked which side of the street holds the purse and how long the purse strings reach.
"We do the hard work," Becker said. "Either cut or increase taxes or find the budget solutions over here, not over there."
Landwehr cautioned lawmakers to consider the political mailers that will flow into their districts, calling attention to the cuts they will need to make to offset escalating school finance costs. She scolded lawmakers who were laughing as she spoke.
"How many of you are going to be willing to sit there and take that postcard that says representative so-and-so cut mental health, representative so-and-so cut foster care, representative so-and-so cut money from the frail and elderly, representative so-and-so did not make the KPERS payment for our state employees," Landwehr said. "You think it's funny? It's not funny. I've been there, guys. You think the postcards are funny? They're not funny. This is serious stuff that we deal with."
Representatives voted 71-53 to eliminate Landwehr's proposal.
They debated various amendments to the more than $16 billion spending package over the course of six hours before giving first-round approval to the bill. Included are pay raises for judicial branch employees and restoration of $12 million to state university budgets.
For fiscal year 2019, the bill provides a full payment of $194 million to the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System, rather than the $82 million proposed by Gov. Jeff Colyer. Rep. Troy Waymaster, R-Bunker Hill, said the state will save about $200 million in interest by paying sooner.
Among the proposals to surface during the debate was a failed attempt by Rep. Brett Parker, D-Overland Park, to expand Medicaid in Kansas.
Proponents of expanding eligibility for KanCare say it will bring in matching federal funds, ease budget pressure on medical providers and provide care for those who need it.
Rep. Dan Hawkins, R-Wichita, said enrollment has exceeded expectations in other states that expanded Medicaid, and he cautioned that the federal government eventually may rescind matching funds.
Lawmakers should "give it a shot," said Rep. Diana Dierks, R-Salina, and let people know they are willing to stick their necks out.
"I am standing here before you today to say let's vote on this, let's pass it, let's see what happens," Dierks said.
Her remarks invited a comparison to similar arguments for 2012 tax cuts that proved disastrous to the state's budget.
"That is very dire language to say in regards to legislation," Waymaster said. "We've heard that before, and usually, the consequences have not been great."
The expansion attempt failed on a 56-66 vote.
Rep. Brandon Whipple, D-Wichita, secured support for an amendment that would shield state employees from nondisclosure agreements that suppress sexual harassment or abuse. Representatives rejected another Whipple measure aimed at closing the gender wage gap by requiring agencies to disclose the pay range of employees to job applicants.
Rep. Chuck Weber, R-Wichita, won approval for an amendment banning the use of state funds on fetal tissue research, and Rep. Blake Carpenter, R-Derby, succeeded in passing an amendment to lower the cost of concealed-carry licenses by $50, to $82.50.

Fence Designs for Your Next Backyard Project
A lot of people consider backyard fences to be just dividers between yards. They overlook good designs while redoing their outdoor space. If you want more appeal, you need a design that not only complements the other areas of your home but also adds a personal touch. Davis Fences offers a range of options, including custom wood and chain link fences, to both our residential and commercial clients.
Do you need the fence to enclose your pool or to keep your dogs in the yard? Is your home located in a wet climate? Consider these while selecting a fencing material; each has its own advantages. Determine their overall strength, durability and your budget. If it's too expensive for you, look for cheaper alternatives. Self-sufficient and low maintenance fences will save a lot of money in the long run.
For clients in Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville, Milton and the Niagara Region, here are a few ideas for you:
Wood Fences
These are inexpensive and provide full privacy. Light and easy to install, they can be painted any colour and are biodegradable. A wood fence requires maintenance and can last up to 10 years. However, it is vulnerable to cracks and warps along with fungus and termite infection.
Modular Iron Fences
A modular iron fence looks traditional, is elegant and requires no maintenance. It is available in a wide range of colours and can last up to 20 years. It is easy to install and offers high security and convenience; it is the best option for a sloped yard.
Chain Link Fences
This is usually used to secure places like backyards, government facilities and construction sites. It is preferred for its economic advantages, durability and affordability. Chain link fences are available in a range of colours, but the most common is silver steel. It is easy to install and repair.
Wood & Metal Fences
This allows you to introduce a modern look to your backyard by combining metal posts and frames with wood pickets placed in-between. Steel or aluminum fence posts used with metal frame panels provides strength and durability, while wood provides visual aesthetics. You can also use coloured metal and stained wood to add an exquisite touch.
Horizontal Fences
This is one of the most popular privacy fencing ideas. Horizontally aligned fence pickets provide a lot of style and beauty, whether you use stained, painted or natural wood or composite materials. You can use tongue and groove wood or composite pickets for your backyard fence; these offer full privacy by sealing the gaps between boards. A metal fence framing system is a great way to install horizontal fencing.
Bamboo Fences
This is a great choice for when you have surroundings and décor with an Asian or tropical influence. Combine it with metal posts and frames to provide long lasting durability.
Bamboo fencing rolls are suitable to cover an existing wall, wooden fence or mesh panel. On the other hand, bamboo screens can be used as freestanding panels or partitions between two gardens.
Vinyl Fences
Vinyl fencing can withstand harsh weather, pests, decay and fungus. It is easy to install, requires no maintenance and lasts for decades. It can be purchased in pre-built panels and comes in a wide array of colours and style options. Use steel posts and frames for the primary structure with vinyl pickets for aesthetics; this is apt for a more durable, modern variation.
Gabion Walls
This is a retaining wire wall filled with stones. While constructing fences, builders usually combine it with wood posts or panels for a more striking effect. You can choose stones from large cobblestones to local rocks to complement the landscape. In addition to being beautiful, this fencing is also very sturdy.
Davis Fences has been providing a wide variety of options (like chain link fences) to its clients in Southern Ontario since 1960. Our staff is highly trained and will ensure the work is completed efficiently and on time. We offer a 2-year guarantee on all our installations. For more information, call us today!

Evolutionary Astrology provides a deep perspective on chart analysis, using the chart to identify the soul's evolutionary journey through reincarnation.
10-week course
Instructor: Maurice Fernandez
Learning this approach to chart interpretation will not only allow students to identify character, skills, potential, and challenges but understand "why" things happen a certain way in our lives. This helps with guiding potential clients to identify root causes for existing patterns in their lives.
This perspective is founded on the principle that we are incarnating not only to survive and reproduce, but also to evolve our consciousness. The chart describes where we are at in this journey, and using an evolutionary astrology perspective, we can better understand the higher meanings for our lives and help enhance our evolutionary process. This has both a practical and spiritual use; we can use evolutionary astrology to understand day-to-day life concerns as well as gain a big-picture perspective and understand the greater "why."
Required books can be found at https://keplercollege.org/index.php/required-books-for-courses
The purpose of this program offered through KEPLER COLLEGE is to introduce students and practitioners in astrology to the philosophy and the initial stages of practice of Evolutionary Astrology. We will review the foundations and Evolutionary Astrology, its roots and recent history, and subsequently delve into the important methods of interpretation. We will review what can and cannot be seen in a chart, and how to address those dilemmas. Students will gain experience that will possibly encourage them to incorporate evolutionary astrology principles into their practice.
Prerequisite: A general understanding of astrology language and chart symbolism
Maurice Fernandez, the author of the books Neptune, the 12th House and Pisces (New Edition), and Astrology and the Evolution of Consciousness—Volume One, is a leading Evolutionary Astrology consultant and teacher, with a worldwide practice spanning close to three decades. Maurice currently serves as the president of The Organization of Professional Astrology (OPA), offering pioneering programs for astrologers.

Adrenal Support (60 caps)
How It Works:
Certain hormones in the body—called stress hormones—prepare the body to deal with stressful situations by increasing the heart rate and the force of contraction and blood flow to the heart, liver, and to skeletal and adipose tissue. These stress hormones are produced and regulated by the adrenal glands. They also dilate airways to the lungs and increase blood levels of glucose and fatty acids. The adrenal hormones and their functions are linked to virtually all of the body systems. Thus, many physiological processes and bodily functions, including cardiovascular health, sex drive, pH balance, skin conditions, energy levels, mood and overall psychological outlook often correlate to adrenal gland function.
Adrenal Support is a synergistic blend of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and adaptogenic herbs specially formulated to nourish and strengthen the adrenal glands and to promote glandular secretion.
25 mg vitamin C (42% Daily Value), 10 mg thiamin (667% DV), 5 mg riboflavin (294% DV), 5 mg vitamin B6 (250% DV), 45 mg pantothenic acid (450% DV), 10 mg magnesium (3% DV), 5 mg zinc (33% DV), 5 mg potassium, bovine adrenal substance, schizandra fruit, borage seed oil, licorice root and protease blend.

With all the conversational antics, a great many topics arise including the great debate between pterodactyl or pterosaur, Maile's need to name everything, all while Kurt peppers the entire episode with his numerous accents. The Canadian Geese come back up again too. To the heart of what we do here, Dario discusses all he and his crew do to prep for spring and summer. We talk about some of the neat recreational opportunities we offer including paddle boats, kayaks and canoes. Oh and we learn about Vicky the Vulture (which we later learned was a manky muscovy duck- thank you, John.) Throughout it all, Micheala keeps us on task. It's another great episode and when you are done, you'll have laughed and learned a few things. Those of you interested in Project Treeline, please click on this link. Thanks for listening and as always, we create moments that matter. We look forward to doing that for you.

Orange Route - Injury Allowance
What is Injury Allowance?
Injury Allowance was introduced on 31 March 2013 for new claims and replaced the NHS Injury Benefit Scheme. The function of Injury Allowance is to recompense employees who have temporarily lost income due to injury or illness as a result of work.
The details of Injury Allowance provisions are set out in Section 22 of the NHS Terms and Conditions of Service Handbook.
How will the transfer affect my access to the Injury Allowance?
If you are compulsorily transferred from an NHS organisation to a GP practice or a primary medical care contract holder under TUPE and remain on your NHS terms and conditions of service without amendment, you should retain full access to Injury Allowance. Where TUPE doesn't apply, COSOP should (see the legal details).

The ability to add text to an image in Photoshop is just one of many useful tools that makes Photoshop the ideal choice for creating images. The text that you insert in your images can be customized in many ways, and it all starts by allowing you to type directly into an image as a separate text layer.
But you may have noticed that Photoshop CC has a habit of displaying placeholder text on a new text layer whenever you create one. If you have been using Photoshop for a while and had either not noticed this before, or had disabled a setting that stopped it from occurring, then you may be interested in stopping Photoshop from using that placeholder text.
How to Stop Photoshop CC from Adding Placeholder Text on New Text Layers
The steps in this article were performed in the Photoshop CC version of the application that is included with a Creative Cloud subscription. By completing these steps you will be changing the way that new text layers work by removing the placeholder text that is typically included on these layers.
Step 1: Open Photoshop CC.
Step 2: Click the Edit tab at the top of the window.
Step 3: Select the Preferences option at the bottom of the menu, then click the Type option.
Step 4: Click the box to the left of Fill new type layers with placeholder text to clear the check mark, then click the OK button at the top-right of the window.

A Historic Week for Women's Equality and Our Generation Did It
Friday, 10 June 2016
Are you as thrilled as I am? For the first time in the history of the United States a woman is representing one of the two major political parties in the election for president. Wow. Are you grinning as much as I am?
It is you and I who made this possible – the women (and a few men who were enlightened early on) of our generation, the second wave of the feminist movement, who began the journey that finally got us to this week.
And it's about damned time. The U.S. is coming quite late to this kind of equality. Many modern democracies have elected women to their highest office going back to the first, Sirimavo Bandaranaike, who became prime minister of Ceylon and Sri Lanka in 1960.
Some others who have served as their country's leader since then are Indira Gandhi of India, Golda Meir of Israel, Margaret Thatcher of the United Kingdom, Vigdis Finnbogadottir of Iceland and more, clear up to the current chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel.
And those are only the most well known. There are at least a couple of dozen more plus those who were appointed, rather than elected to the post.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has five months of hard work before election night but her nomination by the Democratic Party for the office of president of the United States is still a milestone.
That makes it worth taking a look at what had to be overcome.
When we were young, just starting out, the only jobs available to women were secretary, waitress and if we were allowed to go to college, nurse or teacher. The few "girls" - we were called that then, whatever our age – who did attend college were commonly dismissed as pursuing their MRS degree.
Generally, it was understood without any discussion that if you were a girl, you were to get married, have some children and no one said what came next. That was it for life: wife, mother, housekeeper.
Then something happened that would turn our world, our culture upside down.
In 1963, a lefty journalist and union activist named Betty Friedan published a book, The Feminine Mystique, in which she identified and described what she called "the problem that has no name" - that women of the 1950s and 1960s were increasingly unhappy with being confined to home.
The Feminine Mystique was not an instant hit. But over the next few years, it made its way from woman to woman to woman, often one at a time, until it had struck a nerve with millions.
Remember consciousness-raising groups? I was married and living in Houston in 1965 when I began attending a weekly meeting with half a dozen women to talk about what we were reading.
Two or three of my group lied to their husbands about where they were going (and were always nervous that their husbands would find out) because if the men had known what they were doing, they would have forbidden their wives to attend.
Imagine if a husband tried to forbid anything today?! We're not all the way yet but "We have come a long way, baby."
Here are a few of the other ways women's lives were restricted until the 1970s when it began to change for us:
• A woman could be fired or not hired if she were pregnant
• There was no recourse for sexual harassment in the workplace or on campus
• Women could not run in the Boston Marathon
• Women could not refuse sex with their husbands
• Women could not have credit cards in their name
• Abortion was illegal in any circumstance until Roe v. Wade in 1973
• There was no requirement that women be paid the same as men for the same job (we still aren't in practice but at least there is legal recourse)
Those are just a few of the many ways we were lesser citizens than men. But you were there. You remember.
I tried to do my part. I was producing radio and then television shows where I often booked leading feminists of the day – Friedan herself, Gloria Steinem, Helen Gurley Brown, Germaine Greer, etc . etc.
I marched, I attended rallies and meetings and organized and signed petitions and voted for women when they were on the ballot and we talked, we women. Oh god, how we talked.
What we were doing with all that conversation was empowering ourselves, supporting one another as we and millions of others took the steps necessary to grow out of the cultural straight jackets we had been born into. And slowly, slowly, slowly, a little at a time, lives changed.
So here we are this week, 96 long years after having been granted suffrage, with a woman presidential candidate at last. I lived to see it. I actually lived to see it.
I didn't realize until writing that sentence how much it means to me, how much it means to me to have been a part, however small, of making it happen. Even if you don't like Hillary Clinton, even if do not support her, certainly you must realize that this event is a historical milestone for women, for equality, for our country.
If Hillary Clinton is elected president in November, I wonder if Congressional Republicans will obstruct her administration as much as they have President Barack Obama's. If she is not elected president in November, god help us. And god help the world - due to the nature of the opposing candidate, it is bigger - even this first time - than just electing a woman.
Meanwhile, let us rejoice.
Here is Hillary Clinton's acceptance speech at the Brooklyn Navy Yard on Tuesday evening. If you missed it, it is worth every one of the 18 minutes to mark this significant event in American and women's history. (It happens to be a great speech too.)
