Take A Look At These Practical Inside Design Ideas
When you've got an open flooring plan, attempt to pick a theme that flows all through your property. Not all the things in your home needs to match, however there ought to be one thing that ties every room collectively. Clashing or contrasting designs will make your own home look cluttered and can detract from the great thing about each individual room. Do not forget to think about lighting while you're designing a room. You do not need issues to be too darkish and exhausting to see or else you threat eye pressure. You possibly can put in nice lights that can compliment your room, or you need to use pure light. Mirrors are nice at reflecting mild from windows, so strategic placement of a mirror may help lighten a room with natural sunlight.
Display your own treasures in your own home to enhance the overall mood a bit. Instead of utilizing store bought artwork or trinkets, preserve some outdated childhood toys in your cabinet. Or one thing your kids made you. Personal items will carry up happy reminiscences and ideas whenever you take a look at them. So instead of wasting money on buying things, show things which are private to you.
When selecting inside paint hues for the home, it is very important consider a room's quantity and type of exposure to the solar. If you consider what time it's you'll know what partitions are getting what sun! When selecting colors to your inside design, avoid going with fads. Olive inexperienced partitions could have been in style as soon as upon a time, but it may make your own home look dated. Go for neutral colors that can stand up to the test of time. That means, you wouldn't feel like you must repaint yearly.
In case you resolve to make use of an inside designer, communicate your targets and finances to them. Skilled designers typically have formidable plans. Sometimes those plans conflict with the homeowner's style or their pocketbook. Don't be timid. If what the interior designer suggests doesn't suit your targets, tell them. You are the one who has to live with the designer's choices. An amazing inside design tip is to attempt to get the opinion of an artist once you're contemplating making changes. Individuals usually assume they know finest and make all their very own design choices without any enter. An artist has educated their eye and they usually can help you make solid design selections.

In the event you solely plan on staying 5 years or much less, a neutral design will suit you better. What you might take into account superior would possibly turn off a possible purchaser afterward.
A simple trick used by interior-design specialists is to install flooring that has a reflective surface. This may make any rooms seem bigger than they are surely. The sunshine that's out there will replicate off of the flooring and illuminate the room making them appear bigger and more welcoming. Keep in mind that consistency inside an area is essential to the general look. For example, don't place a modern couch in a room with an previous, antique fireplace. Deciding on a single, cohesive theme ensures that the finished product achieves the specified appear and feel.
Work out what mood you're making an attempt to set and use that as the idea in your shade selections. If you'd like it to be stress-free or calming, think about using gentle and cool colors like blues and greens. Your color choices and your choice of furniture should all be primarily based on what you're attempting to perform with the feel and appear of the room. Attempt putting mirrors on walls reverse home windows to make rooms look bigger. A good dimension mirror will replicate the sunshine from the window onto the room, making a two window effect. You will create the looks of a brighter and larger house.
Many older houses may be renovated because builders really dropped the ceilings in the kitchens and bathroom areas, so there is a foot or extra of unused house up above the existing ceiling.

The National Women's Month Celebration every March is part of the worldwide observance of the International Women's Day (IWD).
The following issuances serve as legal bases for the annual activity:
• Proclamation No. 224 s. 1988 declaring the first week of March each year as Women's Week and March 8 as Women's Rights and International Peace Day;
• Proclamation No. 227 s. 1988 providing for the observance of the Month of March as Women's Role in History Month; and
• Republic Act (RA) 6949 s. 1990 declaring March 8 of every year as National Women's Day.
In 2017, the PCW Board Members and Inter-Agency Technical Working Group identified the NWMC theme "We Make Change Work for Women", which shall be used from 2017-2022. It highlights the empowerment of women as active contributors to and claimholders of development. This pursuit of development is also anchored on the commitment of "Malasakit at Pagbabago" or True Compassion and Real Change.
• We stands for Women' Empowerment – empowering women enables them to confidently and meaningfully engage with appropriate institutions to ensure that they contribute to and benefit from development and changes. Thus, women's empowerment will make the change that we are espousing or any development effort responsive of women's concerns.
• Make Change Work = MCW = Magna Carta of Women – making change work for women necessitates strengthening the implementation of the MCW at all levels. It means putting in place functional mechanisms as well as implementing and making known to citizens, programs and services that address strategic gender needs of women.
• Change – also means Compassionate and Harmonized Actions and Networks for Gender Equality.
• We / us or "kami / tayo" in Filipino – who is going to pave the way for an enabling environment for women to be empowered? Who is going to ensure that the MCW is implemented at all levels? Who is going to make change work for women? It all of us, in our various capacities whether as government officials and employees, members of the private sector, the academe, non-government organizations, or as private individuals can be partners for a change that is gender-responsive. It emphasizes our collective effort, collaboration and participation to ensure that women will not be left behind in the pursuit of change.
The theme emphasizes that women should be active drivers in bringing about positive changes, and that they should also reap from fruits of development efforts. This can be made possible by empowering women – enabling them to meaningfully engage with other development stakeholders, and by fully implementing the MCW.
Consistent with Proclamation No. 227 s. 1988, the annual conduct of the National Women's Month Celebration (NWMC) aims to give due recognition to the contributions of Filipino women in our society.
Specifically, 2018 celebration aims to:
1. inform and engage women as stakeholders of government programs and services – to promote citizen-centric governance and make "change" a conscious effort to know, understand, and provide what ALL citizens need;
2. create and facilitate platforms to discuss good practices, gaps, challenges , and commitments in pursuing gender and development (GAD) – to strengthen implementation of the Magna Carta of Women; and
3. inspire and empower women and girls to be agents of change – to contribute in promoting gender equality and the empowerment of all women.
Informing and engaging women as stakeholders of government programs and services
1. PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF IEC MATERIALS (January to March 2018) – Section 26 of the Magna Carta of Women (Right to Information) also provides that "Access to information regarding policies on women, including programs, projects, and funding outlays that affect them, shall be ensured." Interestingly, the Agenda Ni Juana Crowdsourcing survey during the 2016 Women's Month show that the top 5 priority women's agenda that people expect from the government is "Improved information dissemination on government programs and services for realizing gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls and their human rights" (chosen among the top five priority of 3,297 out of 8,005 survey participants).
In view of this mandate and the citizen's expressed need for information, government agencies and LGUs are encouraged to produce and distribute their own information materials featuring their GAD programs and services that can be accessed by women stakeholders. Under the banner/theme "WE Make Change Work for Women", agency/LGU IEC materials shall respond to the following key points:
• How does the agency/LGU make change work for women?
• What are the programs and services that can be accessed by women clients? Simplified steps/guide in accessing said programs and services.
• Results or most recent data on accomplishments (to showcase how citizens were able to benefit from the program).
Agencies and LGUs can follow their respective office's branding or style guides in the development of their IEC materials, as long as these key points are presented. The IEC materials may be in the form of flyers, posters, comics, magazine/newsletter, printed materials, audio / video materials, or other format which they deem appropriate and economical. They may also opt to utilize various methods for dissemination such as through information caravan or tapping the broadcast, print and online media. It is also best to prepare the IEC in local languages or pop-version.
Tip for GAD Focal Point Systems: this is the time to make your agency GAD initiatives widely known! The key objective is for the government to address the demand for more information about their programs and services which is also consistent with the mandate for women's right to information under the MCW.
2. SERBISYO PARA KAY JUANA (March 8 or per discretion of sponsoring agency) – The activity enjoins agencies, LGUs and other organizations that offer direct services and other transactions with the public to offer treats like freebies, discounts, or distribution of IEC materials on March 8 which is the International Women's Day (IWD) and any chosen dates within March, making the celebration more publicly known and felt.

Tip for GAD Focal Point Systems: this is the time to highlight GAD within your agency and enjoin the agency officials and employees to support the GAD initiatives that you are working on.
5. CERTIFICATION OF GAD LOCAL LEARNING HUBS - PCW will also conduct the formal rites for the certification of Local Learning Hubs on Gender and Development (GAD) during month. The certification of GAD Local Learning Hub (LLH) is designed to institutionalize the sharing and replication of LGUs notable experiences and practices on gender mainstreaming.
Inspire and empower women and girls to be agents of change
6. WOMEN INSPIRING WOMEN SERIES (March 8, 15, 22) – First initiated in 2017, the three-part series aims to celebrate women's journey by sharing inspiring stories of change in their chosen fields to encourage their fellow women to be empowered change agents. Modeled after TEDx format, it will also serve as a venue for women to inspire and appreciate each other, and create an environment supportive of each other. The forum will run as a three-part series to be conducted in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Target participants are local government units, non-government and people's organizations, private sector, and students. Interested organizations can also host similar fora following the mechanics and guidelines to be set by PCW.

March 15 – Aklan, 1:00 - 5:00 PM (For Visayas-based participants)

Important note: these events have limited seats. Separate guidelines on participation shall be released by PCW and partner organizations once logistical details are finalized (e.g. seating capacity of venue, confirmed speakers, etc.).
Tip for GAD Focal Point Systems: You may consider organizing your own Women Inspiring Women Fora, giving special focus on topics relevant to your agency mandate. For example, schools can invite speakers who can inspire young women and girls to excel and explore future career options. Agencies with mandate related to women's economic empowerment can organize a forum targeting women entrepreneurs. Agencies that deal with traditionally male-dominated fields like science and technology, engineering, mathematics, law enforcement and military, and the likes may consider organizing a gathering of women in the said fields to share their inspiring stories of change. LGUs may host a forum among women's organizations in the locality to discuss topics relevant for women in the locality, and avenues for engagement and collaboration at the local level.
Agencies/LGUs organizing their own Women Inspiring Women event are also requested to send the following information through the comments link below this webpage for inclusion in the NWMC Calendar of events:

Everyone in encouraged to visit, like and share PCW's official social media accounts (Facebook and Twitter) to participate in this online advocacy.
8. 2018 CINE JUANA FILM FESTIVAL - Using arts (through film) to showcase and celebrate women's empowerment and the various role that Filipino women play in the society is the main objective of the Cine Juana Film Festival. Launched in December 2015 during the 18-Day Campaign to End Violence Against Women (VAW), the first Cine Juana Film Festival was opened to the public for free at the NCCA Auditorium in Intramuros, Manila. It showcased films that deal with the issue of VAW, followed by an open forum with the movie producers/artists and PCW representatives per film showing. This year, the Film Development Council of the Philippines is organizing the CineJuana Film Festival, featuring films celebrating women's strength, power and resiliency.
Agencies and LGUs may also organize their own film showing, provided that their respective GAD Focal Point systems were able to screen the films to ensure that featured films tackle women's empowerment, gender equality, or issues confronting women in the marginalized and vulnerable sectors.

Since Thursday, my life has once again shifted in colossal ways. That evening, eight months of planning came to fruition with the Agent of Change produced Equality Now 20th Anniversary Event, which took place at the Asia Society. It was a labor of love, one that resulted in a spectacular and singular night.
Equality Now has been at the forefront of women's rights for 20 years. Providing legal support for female victims of rape, sex trafficking, genital mutilation, and other global atrocities, this organization began treading an unbeaten path long before governments and judicial systems ever thought to do so. Founded in 1992 by the unrelenting and awe-inspiring Jessica Neuwirth, she and Equality Now's eloquent and powerful global director, Yasmeen Hassan, are two incredible women who I have learned so much from. They define what it means to be an agent of change, and it was a true honor to work alongside them.
The evening was constructed around a segmented show, written by the oft-noted, oft-lauded writer, director, producer Joss Whedon. Emcee'd by Sarah Jones, the night also featured musical performances by Natalie Merchant and performances by Vanessa Redgrave, Laura Linney, Debra Winger, Eliza Dushku, Daphne Zuniga, and more.
On Friday, the day after our Equality Now event, I had a production meeting at the United Nations for the film One Day on Earth, set to premiere on Earth Day in the U.N.'s General Assembly. 1600 people came to experience this masterpiece created by Brandon Litman and Kyle Ruddick, one that asked people in 190 countries to film and submit video about their lives on October 10, 2010.
Now, for anyone who isn't familiar with this great island of Manhattan, the U.N.'s base is on 42nd Street at 1st Avenue. As a resident of 42nd Street at 12th Avenue, I know how hard it can be to get across town, and this occasion was no exception. After far too long of waiting for a cab, I admitted defeat and resolved to wait for the bus. As I approached the stop, I saw a tall African-American woman talking to a hysterically crying disheveled Hispanic young woman, the latter of whom was holding a baby in her arms.
RPG: What is wrong?
Diana (in tears holding a baby in a fleece, pink blanket): My baby is suffering; I have to get her home..not safe.
RPG: Do you want money to take a cab home?
African-American woman: She can't take a cab, they won't let her.
Diana: (In broken English) They won't take me because I don't have a car seat. I live in NJ.
RPG: Do you want me to buy you a car seat so you can get home?
Diana: I will go to Port Authority and take the bus home.
Her waterfall of tears continue to flow, she kisses the baby's head. The bus arrives. Diana crookedly walks up the stairs and sits in a seat and I sit right next to her. I don't want her to feel alone. The woman comes onto the bus, hands Diana $20, and walks off.
RPG: Great -- I'll ride with you to Port Authority.
RPG: What's your baby's name?
Diana: Veronica.
RPG: What a blessing you have curled up in your arms. You are so lucky to have a daughter. When did you give birth?
Diana: Four days ago.
RPG: I can't wait to be a mother -- look at the wonderful bundle of love you have looking back at you. Where are you from?
Diana: Colombia.
RPG: How old are you?
Diana: 28.
RPG: (I gulp.) Are you sure you don't want me to go buy a baby seat with you? (The thought of taking a four-day old baby into Port Authority made me want to throw up.)
Diana: I just want to get her home.
A mature Hispanic woman sits behind Diana and the women behind her are trying to figure out is going on. Over Diana's head and out of earshot, I begin talking to them.
Hispanic woman: Be careful, I work in a hospital and I see this all the time. These girls come to the U.S. and use babies to get money.
RPG: (Dumbfounded) Really? That's hard to believe.
Hispanic woman: Yes, yes!
Collecting the cash I have in my wallet to give to Diana, I tune the Hispanic woman out. She then proceeds to whisper into Diana's ear in Spanish. You are going to get caught by the police. Do not use people for money. You are no good. Other women are entering the bus, all of who exude NYC attitude. An Irish woman, who I later find out is named Barbara, gets on the bus and stands in front of us. This is now a multi-cultural NYC experience!
Diana: Can you take me into Port Authority and get me to the bus?
Sadly, I was so late in getting to the hospital to visit my father that I couldn't.
Barbara: I'll take you to Port Authority and make sure you are okay. I'm a mother of three.
Immediately Barbara and I founded an unspoken bond that resulted in tag-team efforts to take care of Diana and baby Veronica.
RPG: Diana -- You are never alone, people do care. (Her tears are drying up.)
The Hispanic woman gets off the bus and the other energy-filled NYC women collectively chime in.
Women: Later Hater!... Do unto others like you want done to you!
Port Authority is coming up. Barbara gets her things ready and I put the money in Diana's bag. She saw that I gave her $40 and her eyes popped out of her head with gratitude.
RPG: Remember Diana -- you are not alone!
It is for Baby Veronica that I do my work. I keep it real! My focus deepened in that moment on 42nd Street, knowing that everything I do led me to that moment to help a young mother flip her pancake, be thankful for what she has, and know that people do care. I am so thankful for who I have become, and who I became that day. I felt like a lawyer changing the mind of a jury, a teacher shaping the future of a student. I felt like a true citizen of the world, uniting with others to help my fellow (wo)man.
The next day, my friend Ariel and I went to Tribeca to grab some sushi and it turned out to be a good mind dump as life had recently dealt both of us some hefty cards. The rain was torrential by the time I was ready to head home and I could only secure a gypsy cab. I haggled with him to take me home for $30, as opposed to his suggested $40. Sure, it's only a $12 ride in a yellow cab but it was raining, and my patience was thinning.
As the driver pulled into my driveway I asked him for change of a $20. He told me he had it but for $30 he would go to my bedroom with me. Wait...
RPG: What?!!??!
Driver: For $30 I can go to your bedroom with you.
RPG: (Fuming) YOU ARE DISGUSTING!
Women are always dealing with something, good or bad. Harassment and abuse can happen to anyone! There are two things I now know for certain: one, the work Equality Now does is changing the world so that Baby Veronica will never have to deal with this kind of sexist treatment. And two, that cab driver has no idea what he's in for.

Many financial products are created with the intention of easing your fears about the future financial health of your loves ones and a means to retire. So it really is no surprise that two increasingly popular financial products on the market today are life insurance and annuities.
Turns out these products may be tax savvy, too. But are they right for you?
Regardless, you really need to do your due diligence when it comes to life insurance and annuities. A recent article in The New York Times titled "Getting the Full Picture on Annuities and Insurance" points out the obvious – both of these products are heavily marketed. Beyond the hype, much of the marketing focuses on their tax savings characteristics.
Can these tools be tax savings devices? Indeed, if placed within a solid overall plan. Nevertheless, it is important not to lose sight of the true purpose behind these products and the cost-benefits of any particular policy.
At the very least, it would be worth your time to read the original article. It will help you understand how powerful these products can be, how you can use them, and where they might fit into an overall plan.

Trump's Angry Iran Tweet
By Ashish Kumar Sen
Trump's tweet was an apparent response to a comment by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani to Iranian diplomats in Tehran. "America should know that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, and war with Iran is the mother of all wars," Rouhani said, according to Iran's state news agency IRNA.
In many ways, Trump's tweet has echoes of his Twitter outbursts against North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, which ultimately led to a summit between the two leaders in Singapore on June 12.
Iran, however, is a different kettle of fish.
"Trump is hoping that tweeting a threat of war, similar to his 'fire and fury' comment about North Korea, will pressure Tehran to negotiate," said Holly Dagres, a nonresident fellow in the Atlantic Council's Middle East Security Initiative.
"Instead, Trump's saber-rattling is pushing Rouhani to match his rhetoric and join the hardline camp, thereby emboldening hardliners—who refuse to negotiate with the United States—and their stances," said Dagres.
"Any threats toward Iran, regardless of who is in power, stirs nationalist sentiments in the majority of Iranians to rally around the flag and their government," she added.
Similarly, Amir Handjani, a senior fellow in the Atlantic Council's South Asia Center, contended that it's "clear the Trump administration isn't interested in diplomacy with Iran."
"Anyone who has studied Iranian politics closely would know that threatening and humiliating them publicly only hardens their positions," said Handjani.

Archaic in nature, the CV doesn't quite do people justice these days does it? Here are the issues we have with it.
We value our conversations and discussions with candidates a helluva lot more than their CV. We get to find out if you'll be the right fit for a company and will have the right attitude to excel in your role. Things that override a CV any day of the week.
You don't really get the chance to shout about what you did when you've only got two pages to include all relevant information. Fitting your six month charity expedition into a short bullet point doesn't quite do it justice does it?
In short you lose the complete picture of someone's life that's shaped their ability. Recruiters will look at most recent employment, and with the average recruiter looking at a CV for just five-seven seconds, it doesn't give you much of a chance to explain the charity work you've been committed to for five years or the apprenticeship scheme with a leading industry figure three years ago. That's why we always like you to pick up the phone and call us, so we can hear about all of your experiences.
If you're over 50, you'll have a long work history of experience and knowledge which should be something to shout about. But to certain biased employers they could jump to the wrong conclusion that your older years mean you're disconnected to the industry. Of course, we'd neevr work with companies that are like that, but it is just another reason why the CV is becoming a bit of a detriment.
You can hide less than ideal work behind a fancy title. And if you don't have quite the right experience you can embellish your skills in the hope you can work it out later.
We're still debating what the right resolution is to ditching the CV altogether. With video CVs on the rise, could the SnapChat CV take off? The jury is still out on this one.

Whos dating neil patrick harris
Neil Patrick Harris' "Choose Your Own Adventure" autobiography doesn't come out until October, but you can pre-order it now if you're so inclined.
He's also posted the first lengthy excerpt from the autobiography online, and the "Choose Your Own Adventure" aspect of it is more just a way to write the novel from a cheeky second-person point of view (it's not as though you will actually be flipping from one section to others in search of Neil Patrick Harris' underwear, although that'd be fun, too). Much of the excerpted portion deals with that early 90's era when Neil Patrick Harris was still mostly thought of as a child-star and referred to in public as "Doogie." There was a lot of lazing about, a lot of partying, and a lot of hanging out with other similarly aged child-stars, like Shannen Doherty (who NPH suggests became the bratty, glass-throwing pain-in-the-ass described in the tabloids in order to live up to that reputation).
But I appreciated his honesty in not jumping the gun and saying something because he felt obliged to." .
"We were on our way to an event at an Indian casino 45 minutes out of town in a limousine, and David wanted to stop for some reason that I didn't quite get.
There was not a lot of alcohol and drugs for NPH, however, because alcohol dulled him, and cocaine and heroin were too destructive to appeal to him.
Wherever you go in public you are reminded of this bizarre meta-reality.
And talk about a wedding singer—Elton John performed at the reception! Yup, we put the 'n' and 'd' in 'husband'," the newlywed tweeted Monday.
"We happily confirm that Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka were married in Italy in an intimate ceremony surrounded by their close friends and family," a rep for NPH said."Guess what? The couple announced their engagement via Twitter in June 2011 after passage of the Marriage Equality Act in New York.
He studied at Le Cordon Bleu and has worked as a private chef. The couple relocated in 2014 from Hollywood to Harlem, where they purchased and renovated a townhouse.
Burtka said he "had a feeling" when he first saw the property.
(Given the quality of your performance, the dare could not possibly have been worth it.) But for the most part your encounters with women are not so much flirtations as bemused interrogations of a fictional doctor. None of the above: it turns out that Scott is in "the West Side Crazies." Is this a real gang? " and bumping his chest into yours, like some mighty ram bumping his horns against a small nerdy kid's chest.
One thought on "whos dating neil patrick harris"
Past research has revealed "strong evidence that couples who were first cousins married earlier and were less likely to use contraception, the wives had their first child earlier, and they continued child-bearing at later ages," Bittles told Live Science.
Who's so desperate they're willing to pay to have a professional photographer take pictures of them for their Tinder profile?
Flings or discreet dating Flings are great means of escape from everyday life and the stressed environment in which most of us live.

2015 ECF, Game 3 - LeBron James dropped to his knees and slapped the floor with his hand. He was exhausted and exhilarated -- and one win from the NBA Finals. James shook off an atrocious shooting start and withstood Atlanta's gritty comeback to record a triple-double, and the Cleveland Cavaliers took a 3-0 lead in the Eastern Conference finals with a 114-111 win in overtime on Sunday night over the Hawks. James missed his first 10 shots but finished with 37 points, 18 rebounds and 13 assists. The Cavs needed every single one of them to hold off the top-seeded Hawks, who fought Cleveland until the final seconds. James, who favored his right leg for most of the fourth quarter and OT, hit a 3-pointer with 36.4 seconds left to put the Cavs ahead by one, and the superstar dropped a runner with 12.8 left to make it 114-111. "He just wouldn't let us lose," coach David Blatt said.

I went to the doctor today.
I went to the doctor today.
I've dated six guys in the past decade. Out of these, one made the first move, two were mutual enough to be unclear who made the first move, and the other three, I made the first move.
On the other hand, since I was a girl who played video games and had a male-dominated major, a lot of guys "tried," if you can call pretending to want to hang out and then ignoring me when one of us found someone else while never saying anything about liking me. Which I don't. I also have had one guy just outright offer sex repeatedly, despite his girlfriend, and I don't count that either.
I went to a party at my friends' place. One of them (the husband) got a new job, so he invited friends over to celebrate. The husband had a friend I didn't know who was there. I heard from both him and the wife that their friend was asking about me and called me cute. Meanwhile, I can't remember anyone I've only met once. The couple threw a Halloween party too, and the husband told me to bring my Magic cards, since this guy also played. Then he and I made plans to hang out. It went well. But…
It makes me nervous. I've realized that I'm just not comfortable being pursued.
First, the minor reasons: it reminds me of the people from college who never SAID anything and made me feel like I wasn't worth being friends with, it reminds me of people who talk about the friendzone, it reminds me of the creepy shit a lot of men send women, it reminds me of Pickup Artists and Nice Guys and rapists. I don't want to lose my control. All of my relationships have been good enough; I've been in control. I haven't been raped or creeped on. I don't do the "normal" dating with strangers and going out. I date friends; people I know and trust already.
I'm so scared of not being in control. I'm scared of not knowing a person and how they'll react if I'm not interested.
This guy is a good friend of a good friend, and to a point, I trust his judgement. (The guy is better friends with the husband than the wife.) Still, it fills me with anxiety; the husband doesn't know the romantic personality of his friend. When someone is denied what they think they deserve, they can lose their fucking mind. On one hand, I think I'm paranoid, but on the other, how can you see this coming?
In conclusion, there is no conclusion. I don't have an answer or a moral; just a rambling about why I'm feeling really unsure about where I've found myself.
I offered a piece of paper with my symptoms (chest pain and heaviness being the biggest and scariest) to my brand new doctor. He read over it and then asked me some questions. I started crying. I didn't want to die; what if it was my heart or my lungs or
He told me it was probably anxiety.
I've never really moved before. My parents bought the house I grew up in… well, I was told I was conceived the day they bought it. Gross. I "moved" to college and back for 3 years, and then from dorm to dorm to dorm the fourth. Then "moved" to my aunt's house for a year. When it comes down to it though, those aren't the same. I give someone money and then I have a place to sleep, electricity, a shower, Internet and in most cases food all provided for me. Most of everything was also cleaned for me.
Then a stray cat showed up at my aunt's house. I had to take him in; the way he kept trying to come indoors and the way he loved it when I held him told me he used to be an indoor cat. So I found an apartment. We've been living there two weeks now, just me and the cat.
The first hassle is simply changing my address. I'm pretty sure there is no way to do this right. The amount of people you need to tell is immense as fuck. I've told the bank… and a few others. On the bright side, everything else is being sent to my parents' house, and I've changed as many things as I could to online billing with online statements. The post office guy lectured me about telling the local post office that you live there, and he and my neighbors have reminded me to add my apartment number to my shit. Which I swear I have done my best with, but nobody's best is ever good enough in this world.
The second hassle isn't much… yet. Electricity was easy to set up… but no bill from them yet. Cable/Internet was a small hassle, although half of that was my fault for not remembering to charge and bring my cell phone from my aunt's house. The second guy who came to set it up knocked on my actual apartment door instead of standing outside and calling me, so I can't hold myself 100% accountable. Maybe that's just the power of my rage. I had to take a surprise Monday morning off for them, and then my cable modem didn't work so they used one of theirs. When I called the people who made the modem, they said it was my cable company. Maybe you can see why I haven't dealt with it.
The biggest one is my car and licence. This is a different state than the one I used to live in, and it feels a bit like pulling a block from the bottom of a pile and everything falling out on top of me. If I need a licence in this state, I should also have my car registered in this state. If my car is registered in this state, it's not technically owned by my dad anymore. That means he has to officially sell/give it to me. That means I need to insure it myself. That means it needs to be inspected. Oh, by the way, did I tell you my dad's birthday is in July? That means that if I didn't get everything moved to my new state by the end of the month, it needed to be re-inspected and registered in the other state. Oh, and there is no permanent DMV in my area.
Figuring out the order to do it all in was not easy. I felt overwhelmed reading the DMV pages for both states, trying to find out what I needed and if I needed to get it insured and inspected first (which seems silly now) and all the other minuscule details. With the help of my coworkers, family and friends, I did manage to get it figured out. Registration and licence, inspection, insurance. Insurance is last because the car is covered on the old insurance right now. In fact, I managed to get everything done yesterday. More surprise time off work, though. Ugh.
This doesn't even mention that last Wednesday, my muffler fucked itself. It can't be passed without a good muffler. Oh and it was just barely due for an oil change. My dad had to take it over the weekend to fix it, but that worked well because he needed to sign the gift tax exemption form (and, as I thought then, also the bill of sale. Which you don't actually need if it was a gift, I guess.) and probably something else.
Really, it's amazing anything worked out.
Once I get my new insurance, I should be golden. Well, except the bills. And probably something else I forgot.
I haven't been on a plane before. Not once. People seem surprised by this, but I say "my family was lower middle class. McDonalds was a treat and our vacations were driving an hour away and sleeping in a tent. Then my mom's boss gave us the first ever pop-up tent trailer to exist! That was cool. And by cool I mean 'the canvas was filled with holes mice chewed in them.' Anyway, you can shut up."
Saturday will be my first time on a plane. I'm going to Atlanta! For work. Having never been on a plane, or in an airport, or near a (commercial flight) airport, I really have no idea what to expect. TV and news has given me a vague ideas about a lot of lines and body scanning and lines and running. Everyone runs through an airport because they're late in the movies and on TV! I don't plan on emulating them.
These long, pointless paragraphs lead me to what I've learned (and will be referencing until I'm back home): What I've been told to expect and what I've been told to do at an airport. The first things that I read, linked by my friend Matt, is this blog. It was a very useful read, and aimed directly at me! Awesome!
Here is my list of things that Matt, that blog, and my coworkers have told me:

Hello Everyone
I really was so busy creating in the background to get quite a few projects finished and so have not spent too much time blogging and posting in the last few weeks! ;-)
I had a class this past weekend and we basically started this project that I am sharing today.
This little album is not a 1 day project and certainly took me a number of weeks.
It is still a work in progress, but 90% finished I would think. But also maybe not...as I keep adding and adding to it! LOL
Anyways, here is how it started out.
I thinned out a few pages from the various signatures and this was the result.
Then started the task of altering the pages, but also deciding what papers etc. to use.
I de-stashed wonderfully and used Teresa Collins papers and bits that I have had for ages.
And after a few weeks work, here is the altered book.
I used some BoBunny petals and a gorgeous chipboard piece for the cover.
Below are some of the inside pages, I will only share a few, as I don't want to bore you and kill you with images! ;-)
I did stencilling, painting, stamping and used die-cuts to keep down the bulk, but yes, adding in materials, lace and bits and bobs obviously added some bulk to this book.
This is definitely a project of love and I still will add to it. I will also eventually add my photo's too and then it should be complete.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
I really appreciate the love and comments.
Have a fabulous day!

Our #FridaySocial is a weekly round-up of the key social media news stories from the previous seven days. Let us know your thoughts in the comments or via Twitter – @Umpf
Instagram has added a new GIF feature to spice up your Instagram stories. Hundreds of GIFs are now available now for users so they can add and pin them to any of their Instagram stories.
To access the GIFs, tap the 'add sticker' button at the top of Stories and select the new GIF option. You can browse trending GIFs or search through the library.
Instagram is also planning to allow users to upload photos and videos of any size to Stories – avoiding the need to crop it to fit the annoying 9:16 (portrait) format. Keep your eyes peeled for this new feature launching soon.
Now you can add fun, expressive GIF stickers to any photo or video in your story https://t.co/5aYgnHmAvq pic.twitter.com/uYjtz0hRK1

This week, news spread that Twitter is working on a new tool that aims to make it easier for users to post videos. The social media platform aims to cut down the number of taps it takes to upload videos or broadcast live.
Twitter could be upping its game to rival Snapchat and Instagram, which require just one swipe or tap to open the camera.
There's no word yet on when the new feature might be rolled out just yet, so we may have to wait a while for this one…

Some details about video app Vine's successor – V2 – have been revealed this week. Dom Hoffman, co-founder of the original Vine, told TechCrunch that whilst V2 doesn't have a specific launch date yet, it should be unveiled later this year.
V2 is expected to be similar to the original Vine, giving users the chance to share videos of between 2 and 6.5 seconds long on a loop.
Vine was sold to Twitter in 2013 but was discontinued in 2016.
we've been trying to make v2 happen for over half a year. no one was supportive. 54 days ago i tweeted about it, without a plan, to force the issue.
thank you for believing in us. we'll do our best to make it beautiful.

Watch this space.
An investigation by BuzzFeed News this week identified more than 1,700 Twitter accounts that were blocked in at least one country. Buzzfeed claims the list provides a glimpse into the social media platform's collaboration with national groups and governments, and provides new details about a surge in blocked accounts in Germany, France, and Turkey.
It's an interesting read – check it out for yourself here:

We're big Stranger Things fans in the Umpf office, so we were pleased when one of the show's stars, David Harbour, took to Twitter to help promote a good cause – and make his wish come true.
What was that wish, I hear you ask…? To dance with penguins. Obvs.
David, who plays police chief Jim Hopper in the show, asked Greenpeace if he could hitch a ride on one of their Antarctica trips. Check out the thread here:
Hey @Greenpeace , how many retweets to send me someplace to tell emperor penguin couples I think they have terrific parenting ideologies? Perhaps hone the Hopper dance with the males…
— David Harbour (@DavidKHarbour) January 21, 2018
After Greenpeace said he could join them on the trip if he got 200,000 retweets, his fans helped him smash the total – and now David will be joining them in February.
We can't wait to watch what happens!
Penguins got nothin on this. Warn them that I've got my snow pants, @greenpeace and I'm coming… https://t.co/Wp8S2i5req

Do you spend endless hours dreaming about becoming the 'next big thing' of the corporate world? And do you find an extra couple of hours out of the 24-hour day to realize them? If so, you are the dedicated professional and you're bound to reach the top if time doesn't mean much to you in front of your dream.
However, you must value time carefully as it realizes every dream and you need just the right timepiece to keep you ticking through the thick and thin. A good watch is not only an instrument of Horology but a statement of your personality. The dial must radiate like your aura and its physical features should justify your unique personality.
It may be that you find it hard to choose between the number of watches for men since a variety of companies try their hand at developing a fine chronograph. Nonetheless, if you've done your research well, the answer is the phenomenon known as Rolex. They're not for everybody and that's what makes them special. And don't buy them from just about anywhere – head only to authorised and reliable watch retailers in the country such as Ethos Watch Boutiques or log on to their website if you prefer to buy it online. We bring a list of Rolexes that will accentuate your personality when out to take the corporate world by storm:
Cellini Moonphase
A Rolex doesn't offer the best of everything but it does proffer the crème de la crème of what it does offer. And that is exactly what you can learn from the Cellini Moonphase; you ought to give the best of what you promise to your clients instead of getting your head in every tiniest detail. It is one of the best Rolex watches for men you can get to complement your valuable personality. The 18-carat pure gold alloy Everose Gold offers the best aesthetic value you can expect from the body of the watch. The chief display feature is the blue enameled disc at 6 P.M which displays the phases of the moon. Finally, the brown alligator leather strap gives the perfect touch of sophistication.
Day Date 40
"Aurum Potestas Est" – Gold is Power
While in the professional realm, you need a certain authority to get things done and nothing can match the power of Gold. The Day Date 40 is a classic. The president bracelet watch was the first one back in the 1950s with a special window to display the date. The classic white dial gives perfect contrast to the 18-carat gold which is only made of the purest metals. This watch can be your perfect companion in your entrepreneurial endeavours and your rise to the top.
Take cues from the name of the watch and aspire for the very top. The watch wrought in 18-carat rose gold reaches beyond the conventional designs and offers illustrious style. The Dark Rhodium dial consists of an hour disc which moves in reference with an inverted red triangle marker distinguishing the daytime from the night. While travelling you can keep the local time and the time of your hometown or any other place your desire. The Oyster bracelet is crafted with a concealed attachment system which offers the seamless look of the beautiful bracelet.
Pearlmaster 39
We saved the best for last. However, Rolex watches shouldn't be compared together. The Pearlmaster 39, as you can see, is the perfect blend of Horology and jewellery. This is the nearest a professional can come to sporting diamonds. The dial is equipped with Roman number hour markers, but wait for the main part – the dial is carved for and bedecked with diamonds. You can be sure that the watch will sparkle to bedazzle the others in the meeting room. The bracelet goes through high-quality tests to give it the seamless integrity for a flawless finish.


text: In the box you'll find some pretty lovely things! Just judging by what you're likely to receive in the first box, it looks pretty exciting. Above is a sneak peak of what you may find in your first box including a thermal flask, a blanket, hot chocolate, lipstick for the ladies, a torch, a passion pouch (this sounds intriguing), a star jar (this also sounds intriguing) and what looks like glow in the dark paint! I'm really looking forward to seeing this box and going on my stargazing date night with John!

Summer Reading Assignment
College Composition - Summer Reading Assignment
If you successfully completed World Literature and Introduction to Literature, you will be taking College Composition in the Fall of 2017. This is a semester-long, dual-credit class followed by British Literature in the Spring semester. Please note - this class can also be taken without the dual-credit option, which will have different assessments.
A word about dual-credit...A dual-credit class has all the rigor and demands of an introductory college course. What does this mean? You need to take the course work seriously - do all the reading and assignments and come to class prepared to participate. The class is run as a Socratic seminar where students actively share their ideas and help one another understand/form opinions about different issues, values, and themes reflected in the various readings. In addition, this class does have a demanding writing schedule - not impossible, but you need to be prepared to write two research-oriented papers, among others. All that said, it is a great class that will be a huge asset to you for college. And, yes, you will write your college essay.
Please note: There are two parts to your Summer Reading Assignment. See details below! And, no late work will be accepted.
Failure to complete an assignment may preclude you from taking the dual credit option.
Part 1 -Your "Notebook" - is due the first day of class, Monday, August 28th.
Part 2 is due Friday, August 18th. Either submit through your google folder or email to me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Part 1!
Your Summer Reading assignment is to read and take notes on
How to Read Literature Like a Professor
by Thomas C. Foster. I have included a
link here
so you can access the work online.
The Assignment
You need a spiral or composition notebook (no looseleaf paper!) to take notes and write your commentary about the text
Thoroughly read
How to Read Literature Like a Professor
and take notes using one of several different forms: Double Entry Journal, Cornell Two-Column Notes, Visual Notetaking, Outlining, or using a Mind Map/Spider diagram.
I've included pictures below!
Can you mix it up and try different forms of
note taking? Why, yes, of course! However, you must use one of the forms shown below. Google to get more information if you do not fully understand any of the forms.
You will record one entry for each chapter (or, a total of 25 - no need to address Chapters 16 & 17 : ). Label each entry with the chapter title and number. Choose at least two significant quotes from each chapter, PLUS include your own ideas about the chapter. You may agree, disagree, ask relevant questions, or draw pictures to help you remember and process the information from the chapter. This journal is ultimately a source for you - that I hope you will be able to use throughout the year and beyond.
How long should each entry be? Just answer the questions as noted above. I do not want you to simply rewrite the book! You can keep a copy of that. Capture something from the chapter that is meaningful to you - something that you can use!
Due date? The first day of school, Monday, August 28th.
So, here is Part 2!
Now that you have read and digested
you will complete a Literary Response for "The Fall of the House of Usher" by Edgar Allen Poe. Here is a
to the story.
Your journal response should be written in complete sentences, paragraph format - one paragraph for each question. Use literary present tense when discussing the text in supporting your position! And, because some questions are asking for your opinion, you may also use first person (I). Your grade for this portion is based primarily on demonstrating depth of thought.
P.S. I do not want to hear what SparkNotes or any of his friends have to say!
1. Weather (Ch 10): Foster says that symbols in literature have a range of associations, often based on the reader's interpretation. Select something from the story that you suspect has symbolic (beyond the literal) importance and explain why you feel that way. What is the symbol and how is it important to the story, both as a concrete object and as a representation of something else (idea, something abstract, etc.)?
2. Geography (Ch 19): Foster explains that authors often situate their stories in a certain location for a specific reason - that, geography somehow enhances the story and its meaning. Explain how the location, landscape function in this story and why it might be important. Would the story make as much of an impact if it were set elsewhere? Explain.
3. Season (Ch 20): It is discussed in
how season is an integral part of the story's setting. Seasons each have different meanings, different associations, and authors make use of these in their writings. Explain the associations and impact/effect of the seasonal setting in the story.
Part 2 is due Friday, August 18th. Either submit through your google folder or email to me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Will a flag and half a dozen ice hockey sticks solve the nuclear crisis on the Korean peninsula? Of course not. If, as planned, a joint North-South women's team strides forth under a pro-unification flag at next month's Winter Olympics in the South, it will be a very small step forwards. But that is one of the paradoxes on which all sports diplomacy rests – it matters because it does not matter. The idea of using sports to improve fraught relations dates back at least to the Olympic Truce reached in Ancient Greece, supposedly on the advice of the Oracle at Delphi. The monarchs of Elis, Pisa and Sparta agreed that the hosts, athletes and accompanying parties would be able to participate in the games without any risk. In the modern age, ping-pong diplomacy helped thaw cold war tensions between the US and China. Sport is powerful as a symbol of national identity and vigour that engages the public, often passionately. Yet set beside bigger conflicts it is comically irrelevant – and therefore much safer. A nation may feel embarrassed at a loss, but no one dies.
A second paradox is that sports are about both competition and cooperation. George Orwell, writing a few years after the 1936 Berlin Olympics, took an exceptionally bleak view of international contests. Serious sport was "bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence: in other words it is war minus the shooting," he concluded.
True, the symbolic power of sport can highlight breaches (like the US and Soviet Olympic boycotts in the 1980s) or even enlarge them (as when football hooligans trash a foreign city). Famously, the sporting boycott of South Africa during apartheid – wrongly defied by some British teams – helped bring about change. But you cannot unilaterally declare a match: you take on another nation only after they agree that you will do so. All sporting discord rests upon an underlying accord. And in the case of the Koreas, they are collaborating in competing against other nations. Despite an unexpectedly frosty reception from young people in the South, a joint team may yet create more sympathy for warming relations. Citizens whose cultures and economies have diverged so dramatically will join against a common foe.
Sporting engagements do not create change; they happen when a shift is already under way. But they can provide a nudge, helping to sound out the other side, and prepare the public for a different kind of relationship. Kim Jong-un's remark that he might send a team to the Winter Games indicated he was ready to de-escalate the crisis. The South, as host as well as participant, hopes the North's involvement will prevent a provocation that would overshadow the event. In such calculations – rather than the bombastic pledges of international amity – lie sports diplomacy's value. It creates a modest space for the pragmatic pursuit of national interests in a way that may, in the end, benefit others too.

Basement Wall Ideas
Basement wall ideas are so many. It depends on the desire of the owner. Commonly, when it is decorated there will be two options. They are finished and unfinished wall ideas. Each of them has the pros and cons. It depends on the point of view that the homeowner will take. Every wall design and idea can give affection for the interior feeling and accent. For the basement it will be better if it is decorated as the need and style of the owner. Then what to choose between the finished and unfinished wall decoration ideas?
Finished Basement Wall Ideas
For the homeowner who has more budgets, the ideas of finished basement wall design can be the right choice. It is because the presentation of the wall design and ideas is just like the need of the owner. Usually, before the construction, there will be a plan for the whole and complete design and description for the basement. Here, it will be done by the expert. In short word, all will be done and the owner just sits and pays. This can be a solution for the themed wall decoration ideas.
Unfinished Basement Wall Ideas Design
For the homeowner who needs more freedoms and ideas and also who is considering about the budget, the ideas of the unfinished wall decoration will be the right choice. It is not only about the cheaper price that they need to pay but also it is about the freedom of choices. The unfinished one will let the home owner to finish it by themselves with their own ideas and creation. If it is just let unfinished look, it will be more artistic than the finished one. But sure, it needs more time to finish and the basement to use because finishing the wall space of the basement is not an easy deal to do by them.

So, I've had a fever, headache, sore throat, etc. etc. and camped out on the couch: Ah ha! I thought something THAT exciting would catch your interest!
Yet things happen, even with me sidelined.
1) Huck bought a cider press. Quite a big investment in a so-far nebulous vision he's sprouting. We have no place to put it.
2) The 6 year old neighbor girl pulled Coyote off the bottom of their pool today. He was waterlogged, coughing up lots of water. Huck was chatting with the dad and took his eyes off for just a few seconds. ICK!! I'd had a nightmare about that last night, only it was Blue. I don't think it was necessarily a premonition because I probably have nightmares about that every night. Here's a photo of swimming lessons this summer. He might have learned a lot more if he hadn't been staring at his teacher's chests the whole time. THAT BOY!
3) Mom and Dad spent the night on their leaking aero-bed.
4) So Huck and I went for a date! Not that we really needed one; we've spent, probably, way too much time together lately. We took a spontaneous hike up to these stone outcroppings that loom over Wenatchee like a natural castle. Almost to the top, we had to cross a scree. Half way across, it decided to take me down. Mistake 1: freezing on a sliding scree. Mistake 2: wearing boat sized Birkenstocks that just encourage more sliding and trap rocks in your sandals. Once stabilize, we decided to turn back, rather than face the rest of the scree. I grabbed the one plant for stability and that caused a slide above me. Lesson: when on a sliding scree, keep moving forward as quickly as possible! And wear appropriate shoes...
5) So then we went out to this place called Shakti's, advertising wi-fi. I thought it'd be a little Indian dive. Instead it was FANCY FANCY. And expensive. So there I was, with dust up and down my legs and two dusty hand prints on my shorts and my baseball cap. Since I was already out of line, I put the cap at a wonky angle. Such a rebel! The food was okay, but not art, as the prices implied. And there wasn't a dang thing Indian about it, no coconut milk even! Shakti is Hindi for "energy."
6) I met up with M yesterday. I always meet this woman just when I need to hear something she has to say. The last time was the day after Huck quit. She told me that she quit her first two pharmacy jobs after 2 weeks and 4 months. One of the many that has assured me it's perfectly normal for the first job out of college to be a bad fit. So this time she was helping in her son's 2nd grade class and saw Blue's name.
She says, "Boy, you sure lucked out!!"
"Did you try to get her in to this class?"
"This is the best team of 2nd grade teachers in the district. They offer the most enrichment programs, the only gifted programs. They're amazing."
I shared with her my perspective.
"Yeah, they hit the rules hard the first few weeks, but that's because they cover so much material and really push the kids academically, more than the others. Kids that come out of their class are set and will be ahead next year."
Yeah, but...
"This school has a lot of kids that don't have discipline at home, so they have to get those kids up to speed on rules or the whole year will be wasted on disciplining them and not teaching anyone."
But their method is a little tough on the kids that like to obey, like Blue.
But then Blue can't have her academics held back by kids that don't listen and teachers that spend all their time chasing after them.
Okay, but I still think the MYD program is F-ed. And I think the teachers could allow for some variation on personalities and discipline in the kids. And laughing should still be allowed!
Back to the couch to watch more WILD LIFE!! or maybe I'll take a break from reality for a Poirot mystery...

twats in your group of friends
i can't be bothered to go into what a massive twunt the girl i know is and how much i wanna stab her in the head with a stiletto heel every time she talks but i'd love to hear what y'all have to say on the subject.
if you can't be bothered to go into what you're starting a thread on, then why are you starting a thread on it?
^ agreed
we need reason...
i'm too tired to give
specific examples but i still thought it was worth seeing what stories every one else had.
obviously if they all follow my lazy example this will be a pretty lame thread.
i can't be bothered describing how much of a fucking twunt
a girl i know is, either. again.
GOD even NOT talking about her fills me with an uncontrollable rage. i'm gonna have to go and wank it off now.
in that he's a tw@
you'd like to stab in the face?
oh, i got one
used to be one of my closest friends but has turned in to a judgemental bitch who follows around the ridiculously indie boy in our group(who also annoys me)like some stupid puppy - something which she used to slag off our other friend for doing when we were younger.
Last time I saw her she even purposefully waited until it was me indie boy and her to ask "what kind of music I was listening to at the moment", she has never shown any interest in my choice in music before(accept to mock it) so it was quite obvious she wanted to a) try and "out-indie" me, and b) use her music knowledge to impressive indie boy who she wont admit she's pathetically in love with even though everyone knows he only sleeps with anorexically-skinny indie girls who he then dumps as soon as he realises they might actually like him.
The kind of person u want to ditch
but it feels rude too because they have been in your group of friends so long? Yea I have about 7 of them right now.
kill dem all
or alternatively but fairy in there kettles
no i've never liked this person
she's just friends with my other friends and i have to kind of put up with it so as to not make it awkward for everyone else.
The old 'twat of the group'
is now one of my best three friends. And probably my best of that group. Keep faith in twats. They sometimes turn out well.
I'm not sure why people
would have twats in their group of friends?
Maybe i'm that twat...

The 49ers found out against the Seahawks what they have in backup Trent Dilfer, whom they acquired last year to act as mentor Alex Smith. Dilfer, 35, did not play at all in 2006 as Smith took every snap, and Dilfer had not played yet this year either, so when he entered the game against Seattle on Sunday, he was understandably not up to the speed of the regular season. But that's not his only problem. He had requested to play more in the preseason this year so he could be ready for situations just like this. But it turns out he wasn't. Of course, he got very little help from his blockers and receivers. Dilfer completed just 12 of 33 passes for 128 yards, with no touchdowns and two interceptions. He tallied a putrid passer rating of 23.3. So the question is: Will he be any better with a full week of practice as the starting quarterback? And the answer is: Not by much.
Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News wrote that Dilfer "isn't really a backup QB; he's an assistant coach/psychologist, and that's exactly what Dilfer played like once Smith went out with a separated shoulder [Sunday]. "The 49ers haven't brought in a young QB to compete with Smith. They haven't brought a veteran who could realistically compete with Smith. They had Smith, and they wanted a big brother. If Smith is out for three, four or however many weeks, the 49ers will have a big brother playing QB, not actually a real QB. That's the choice they made."

I was amazed when I saw these beautiful ducks. One can't help but notice their bright blue beaks.
They are blue-billed ducks, a native of Australia. But these particular ones actually call "Sea World" home.
According to this Australian website, the males have the blue bills which is most evident during breeding season. Ah, so even in the animal world, males have to look their best to attract the females.
Aren't they cute?

I often struggle with the approaches of communicating value. I have seen really great examples of how value selling has changed a deal for the positive and I have seen examples where value selling has turned the deal on its side. In most cases, the reason for the conversation around value going sideways was because "the expert" wasn't in the room and the sales team got out over their skis.
This can be for any number of reasons but the main reason I have seen is due to the model used to calculate value being too complex and hard to follow. Well if your sales team cannot communicate it, how on earth will the customer ever be able to take ownership of it and sell when you cannot be in the room? Let's face it they can't and herein lies the problem. As someone who spends every hour of the day helping companies move the ability to sell value into the sales team (and even the channel in many cases) I have spent many a sleepless night trying to come up with a solution to that specific problem.
Regardless of the model, ROI Calculator, TCO Calculator, etc. If you do not keep the way you communicate value to the customer SIMPLE, CONSISTENT, AND TRANSPARENT, you run the risk of the having a sub-optimal outcome of all of your hard work. So how do we do this?
- Land on a consistent way of calculating value at a high level: Please comment and I would be happy to give you some thoughts on how I approach this part of the problem. If you can get to a point where anyone can understand you benefits, then you have accomplished the goal
- Stay the course: One of the biggest challenges to adoption is a moving target, especially when it comes to sales people. They do not have the time nor inclination to play "follow the bouncing ball" when it comes to their sales conversations
- No Black Box: I have seen this with many tools (home grown and commercial). The simple fact is if you cannot trace both the numbers and the rationale then you will never be able to survive without the "expert" to explain even the basics. That simply DOES NOT scale
If you do this correctly, you can have the experts focus on the truly challenging multi-million dollar or very strategic snowflake deals and transform you sales team into a force that can differentiate not just what they sell but how they sell it!

the man on a chair was drawing . I wish i could show you the miniature works ( two drawings) he did while we played ...they are just fantastic !!
His name is Vincent. He lives in Brussel now. He used to live in Cherbourg/France, the town of my childhood.
The most beautiful thing for me is that you read this, Jean-Herve.
I guess you're aware that this has been written from the heart.
Couldn't see what Vincent was doing (to be honest not many people knew so perhaps showing it afterwards????).
Let me just tell you this, I saw thousands of gigs in my life (I am that old yes:)) but you are one to remember. Respect.

BATHROOM WATERPROOFING : Bathrooms are most sensitive and quite prone to leaking walls and seepage. This is because of faulty layouts or untreated or uncured tiles. Bathroom waterproofing ensures that your bathroom walls along with the adjoining walls, ceiling, and floors are protected from fungus, seepage, and leakage.
Water is the most corroding element ever and if we are not careful it may create unwanted damage to your precious home. If you are getting your bathroom renovated or newly built, we advise you to undertake bathroom waterproofing from SS Waterproofing services to ensure that your bathroom along with your neighbors' is protected from water damage.
We use a flexible, super polymer membrane that is painted atop your bathroom surface, making your bathroom completely safe to use, and totally damage resistant.
