How can you expect your customers to take your business seriously if your invoices do not appear professional? An invoice is the last impression you give to your customer. Why not close the deal with an invoice template that is professional, free, and easy to use? A professional invoice is critical to your companys credibility, not only so your customers pay you promptly, but also so they call you again for future business.
Lastly, you will need to consider the production of your template. Depending on your industry you need to pick the best invoice to suit your needs. For example, you may use an invoice template that you customize electronically and print from the convenience of your office before submitting to your client. Or perhaps, the invoice will be sent electronically through email. Or you may require a handwritten invoice form that your technician can complete in the field. Most likely, your company will require a combination of these. Using a template can ensure that your companys design and branding elements are consistent.
If the customer doubts the credibility of your invoice, they may not submit a payment by the deadline you requested, which hurts your bottom-line. The task of invoicing can be daunting, but it is simplified by using a template appropriate for your industry. So how do you find the right template for your business and save money at the same time? First, you should identify what your template needs. At a minimum, your invoice should include certain elements, such as your companys name and address, customers contact information, description of services provided, and the agreed cost for the services you provide. More advanced invoices may include your companys logo, terms of payment, and itemization of goods and services provided.

The Frances
13 U.S. (9 Cranch) 183
If a British merchant purchase, with his own funds, two cargoes of goods in consequence of but not in exact conformity with the orders of an American house, and ship them to America, giving the American house an option within twenty four hours after receipt of his letter to take or reject both cargoes, and if they give notice within the time that they will take one cargo but will consider as to the other, this puts it in the power of the British merchant either to cast the whole upon the American house or to resume the property and make them accountable for that which came to their hands. The right of property in the cargo not accepted does not, in transitu, vest in the American house, but remains in the British subject, and is liable to condemnation, he being an enemy.
In the ordinary course of mercantile transactions, a delivery to a ship master is a delivery to a consignee, but this delivery may be absolute or qualified, and the effect of it may vary accordingly. A voluntary agent has the option to enter upon his agency in strict conformity with the instructions of his principal or with such reservations or conditions as he may think proper to prescribe, and the only consequence it that in the latter case he leaves his principal at liberty to adopt or repudiate his acts.
The shipper who purchases goods on his own credit or with his own funds is not acting in the ordinary capacity of a factor. If he were, the goods, even before shipment, would be the property of the individual on whose order the purchase is made. Such shipments are in the nature of a mercantile credit, and the shipper always retains the uncontrolled exercise of discretion in extending it.
In this case further proof was ordered at the last term.

The big news last night was that a really large bug was available for viewing in the kitchen. When I got there, my husband and my older daughter were staring.
"I think it's hanging out on the stove for the warmth," Eric said.
Coco thought it was disgusting.
Then they left the room, because in this house I am the disposer of bugs. Not that I'm one of those tender-hearted lovers of all animal life. Not because I attach cute personalities or human emotions to insects. It's just that lately, I consider each bug on a case-by-case basis.
The bug on the stove was about 3/4-inch long, brown, and papery in texture. Its hind legs were much bigger than the ones in front. Its antennae waved slowly, and its exoskeleton seemed unnaturally dry. It didn't look like any bug in my garden guide. With some relief, I noted that it showed no signs of suddenly leaping up in my face. I don't like the sudden movements of bugs any more now than I did when I was a 6-year-old, easily grossed out.
The bugs of my childhood included crickets, whose sudden leaps terrified me; fist-sized arachnids known as "garden spiders"; smaller spiders, which I admired for their grace and craftsmanship; and a female praying mantis that my mother snatched with bacon tongs and placed in a can next to my father, who was napping on the couch. When he woke up, she yelled, "Surprise!" (Less than a year later, they divorced.)
My young adult years vis-a-vis bugs were Genghis Khan-like -- looting and pillaging to prove that I was not afraid of anything. The defining moment took place in the Arizona desert, where I was spraying primer paint onto a motorcycle's gas tank, and a 3-inch flying cockroach dropped onto my back from a tree.
Enraged, I sprayed him with a silver coat of primer, then trapped him under a can. I slipped a spatula beneath the can, transferred the whole assembly to the stove, and roasted the cockroach alive. It was very disconcerting -- the smell was delicious, enough to put me off ever torturing a bug again.
Which is not to say I did not kill. Every gardener knows that horrible moment when a favorite plant is discovered literally crawling with the wrong kind of insect life. You're furious -- who are these bugs, and why did they all attack? You must act immediately! So you read of solutions, woefully ineffective: Rinse with a hose, although the bugs seem to find this refreshing. Or handpick! One million microscopic marauders!
I began to amass insecticides whose contents are never supposed to land anywhere except on the bugs themselves. Most are very effective, in ways that only become horrifying over time. I never used to label myself an organic gardener, but one day not long ago, I looked down the slope from where I was shaking killer dust from a can, like so much lethal parmesan, and saw that it led directly into my town's watershed. Then a couple of dogs ran by, and I knew that it wouldn't be long before a small child did, too. It was over between me and the serious weapons of bug warfare.
Now I'm deep into the study of companion plants, dormant oil, sticky sheets of yellow paper, and accepting loss, because my garden looks rattier than it did in the chemical days. All this is no big surprise.
What is surprising is the tiny prick of interest I feel now when contemplating a bug. Consider a ladybug, whose life cycle includes three amazingly different stages -- as if I, on my journey from birth to death, were to become first a chicken egg, then a woman, and finally a toaster. Consider a spider. When I'm called on to remove spiders from my daughters' rooms, I no longer smush them with a Kleenex. Instead, I transport them somewhere safer and more productive. No girls under the age of 12 need to know, but sometimes that place is still inside the house.
And what of last night's bug on the stove, whose purpose -- harmful or benign -- is not yet clear? Catch and release, I decided. It crawled onto the back of my hand, and then, once I had walked into the cold, clear night, back off it.
You might as well live, I thought.

Release date: October 29, 2013
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Genre: YA Fantasy/Paranormal Romance
Series: The Iron Fey: Call of the Forgotten #2
In the real world, when you vanish into thin air for a week, people tend to notice.
After his unexpected journey into the lands of the fey, Ethan Chase just wants to get back to normal. Well, as "normal" as you can be when you see faeries every day of your life. Suddenly the former loner with the bad reputation has someone to try for-his girlfriend, Kenzie. Never mind that he's forbidden to see her again.
But when your name is Ethan Chase and your sister is one of the most powerful faeries in the Nevernever, "normal" simply isn't to be. For Ethan's nephew, Keirran, is missing, and may be on the verge of doing something unthinkable in the name of saving his own love. Something that will fracture the human and faery worlds forever, and give rise to the dangerous fey known as the Forgotten. As Ethan's and Keirran's fates entwine and Keirran slips further into darkness, Ethan's next choice may decide the fate of them all.
My Rating: 5 Roses
You see this:
I'm writing this review about 2 weeks after finishing The Iron Traitor, and I'm still at a loss of what to say that could do this book justice. So, forgive me if I get a little incoherent or fangirl-y. I'll try to rein it in.
Let's start with Ethan.
He was amazing in this book. He was always a strong character, but he gets even stronger in this book in that he opens his mind and understands more. By that I mean, his view was very black and white before. Fae = bad. No ands, ifs, or buts. In this book, the lines start to blur for him and he comes to a better understanding about all the shades of gray in between. And, that's not mentioning how sweet he was to Kenzie. He may be a tough guy, but he definitely has a soft side and it was totally adorable. But, after that ending, I don't know what's going to happen to him. I think I might have died a little on the inside after what happened to him at the end. Just thinking about it now makes me want to cry and throw something across the room at the same time. To those who have yet to read the book, I'll say this about a million times in this review, but BEWARE THE ENDING.
I liked Kenzie even more in this book. She's a wonderful character. Even though she's the one who's dying, I think she'll be the one to outlive them all with the way things are going. Like Julie's other heroines, this girl is tough and she takes on everything that the fae world throws at her. She was brilliant.
We get to know Annwyl a lot more in this book, especially given her situation. You know, the threat of her fading from existence since she was banished for the Nevernever. I think the only word to describe her would be: sweet. She was such a genuinely sweet and nice character that is was impossible not to like her. And her situation broke my heart. Here's hoping that she manages to get a happy ending despite the odds.
I honestly don't know what to say about his character after everything that happened. He effed up big time. But before I go into a rant about how much I both love and hate him, I'll try to keep myself toned down.
Can I say that this boy is just like his father? Seriously, sometimes the way he acted was just so exactly like Ash that it was startling. Difference is that Ash knew when to stop. Keirran, unfortunately, didn't.
Ugh, I'm not even sure what to say about him. On one hand, I think he's amazing. His devotion to Annwyl was so heartwarming and adorable. And he was the very definition of bad ass.
On the other hand, I want to literally shake some sense into him. Or whack him upside the head.
Keirran, what were you thinking?! How could you do that!?
To what do I refer to? Several things, which is why I'm so at a loss of what to think. To say he screwed up is one thing, but he's well on his way to starting a war that could destroy both worlds. Ooh, I don't want to give anything away, but there's just so much I want to rant about! Let's put it this way. I've never had a character's actions rile me up so much. To the point that I was on the verge of throwing something across the room. And, even that's an understatement.
Again, we have cameos of our old favorites: Grim, Puck, Meghan, Ash. It's always great to see them again, just being so awesome.
The plot was fast paced. I was hooked, riveted, completely on the edge of my seat. Julie had a gift for getting me utterly absorbed in the world of her books and drawing me completely into the story. There are so many twists in this book that it would put a roller coaster to shame.
The ending. Oh my goodness, the ending. I don't think I've ever seen a cliffhanger so epic. But, come on Julie! Must you torture me?!?! There aren't even words to describe how I felt at that ending. I got to the last page, reread it literally 3 times to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, then refused to believe that was really the end, frantically tried to turn the page in my Kindle, and when that didn't work, finally accepted the truth and developed anxiety for the next book. That was a cliffhanger to end all cliffhangers. I NEED to get the next book ASAP because I might just die of anxiety. Again, BEWARE THE ENDING!
The Iron Traitor was so completely EPIC, there aren't even words to describe how awesome it was. The twists and turns, the romance, the surprises, THE ENDING. It was all brilliant. Lovers of the Iron Fey series, you will love this book. It definitely doesn't disappoint the high expectation we had. For anyone else, I can't imagine why you haven't started this series yet, but you definitely need to get on that because it is earth shatteringly magnificent.

Featured Freebie:
Today, I have a New Adult read that I featured on a blog tour and really liked: The Guys Are Props Club by Ingrid Seymour. Go forth and get it for free!
During her senior year in high school, Maddie Burch promised herself not to ever fall for a cute guy – or any guy – again. Cute guys are players and not to be trusted, a fact she learned the hard way when her first boyfriend ran her heart through a paper shredder. Two years later, her promise is still intact, and she's determined to make it through college without falling victim to another creep. She has her job, school and The Guys Are Props Club to keep her mind and hormones in check.
The club was founded by Jessica, Maddie's best friend. It is a sisterhood of girls who have fallen prey to heartless jerks and who have vowed to turn the tables. Once a semester, Jessica requires members to "do onto others as they've done unto you." Setting the example, Jessica's next play is Sebastian Capello, a theater major with heartthrob looks and a flair for Latin dance, whose heart she plans to break the way hers was once broken.
What the friends don't know is that Sebastian is different. Despite his perfect looks and popularity, he's not a jerk. He doesn't play games to get his way. Instead, he keeps it real and goes after what he wants with honest intentions. And what he wants is not a bombshell like Jessica, but a down-to-earth girl like Maddie – even if it causes a riff in the girl's friendship. Even if it means getting Maddie to break her personal vow.

IAN LEEMING - an update
Ian is undergoing treatment through the Weldmar Hospice in Dorchester.
In a nutshell last year he had a series of operations having been diagnosed with bowel cancer. He then spent many weeks travelling to Poole hospital for chemo/radiation treatment. This relieved the symptoms somewhat and he believed it was clear, so much so that he had some golf days and he felt up beat. Sadly the cancer has returned. Weldmar Hospice provides excellent palliative care for patients and family.
Mick Burgess popped in to see him last week he seemed in good spirits, his wife Tina joined him for lunch and she said that the doctors had said he can go home for a couple of hours now and again.

Re: Ian Leeming
We spoke to Tina last week as hoped Ian would be well enough to attend the SW Reunion and heard he was in the hospice for a few days and due home then. Glad I spoke to Tina as whenever we speak to Ian he says he is fine!!
He's certainly a fighter as was Drac, bless him. So sad but he'll be well looked after in the hospice and they'll make sure he is pain free.

Lions might be one of the most effective hunters prowling the plains of Africa, but that's not to say that every meal comes without a challenge. In this footage, filmed at Kruger National Park in South Africa, a hungry lion is confronted by a water buffalo hurrying to the aid of its fallen herd-mate.
While the lion might have easily been killed in this encounter, such was not the case.
"Amazingly all of the animals walked away from the encounter with no major injuries, except perhaps some bruised egos on the lion's part," reports Barcroft TV.
Kruger National Park is no stranger to prey standing up to predators. In 2007, a similar scene of buffalo solidarity against attacking lions was published to YouTube, titled Battle at Kruger -- garnering over 73 million views.
In an interview with Time, biologist Dr. Sue McDonnell describes this rarely-filmed behavior:
"The larger herd is broken down into smaller harems, with a dominant male and several females and their babies. If a youngster is threatened, both the harem males and bachelor males - which usually fight with one another - will get together to try to rescue it."
Our fascination with scenes of prey animals succeeding over lions may derive from the fact that we were also once underdogs in a similar struggle during the nascent years of our evolution. Just as herd mentality has driven these buffalo to rescue their fallen members from the jaws of death, human's strong social bonds no doubt played a crucial role in the success of our species against those earliest animal threats.

BANANAS can help prevent heart attacks and strokes, research reveals.
The potassium in the fruit combats the hardening and narrowing of arteries, scientists discovered.
The vital mineral — which spuds, broccoli and sprouts are also rich in — was found to aid blood flow to the heart and brain and reduce the risk of clots, reports The Sun.
Other good sources of potassium include parsnips, seeds, fish and poultry.
Its effect on the arteries emerged in US lab tests on mice.
Researchers at the University of Alabama fed some of the mice a diet low in the mineral while others got extra.
• Skipping breakfast makes you unhealthy
• Foods that will stop you from getting fat
Those that ate potassium-rich foods ended up with a better blood flow.
Official advice from the National Health Services in England is to consume 3,500mg of potassium a day — and four bananas can contribute half of that amount.
However, eating too much can cause stomach ache, nausea and diarrhoea.
Older people may be more at risk because their kidneys may be less able to remove potassium from the blood.
Dr Mike Knapton, from the British Heart Foundation, said the study in mice showed that not eating enough potassium leads to the hardening of arteries.
He added: "With more research, we might be able to see if the disease forms in humans in a similar way and develop treatments."
Despite these results, the NHS urges people to see their GP before making any dramatic changes in diet.

AlexandAlexa create a 'no rules' approach to dressing for S/S 19
Dec 24, 2018 | By Rose Garrod
Apr 18, 2017
As consumers long for familiarity, warmth and compassion in today's chaotic world, Misha & Puff show that there is a way to have all of these characteristics on top of ethical and sustainable practices whilst still retaining an edge of cool. How do they do it?!! Read on for our interview with Misha & Puff founder Anna Wallack…
Q: Tell us a bit about why you started Misha and Puff?
A: It started really organically. I had been working as a stylist and took time off when I had my first child. I was in nesting mode, and instead of buying clothes, I started knitting. This was it really. Knitting can be very addictive, and it has a beautiful meditative quality. Very soon, I was designing my own styles, and realised my perspective: yarn, patterns, styling was unique in the market. And Misha and Puff grew out of that.
Q: What are the three most important values of the brand?
A: Hand crafted is certainly at the core, it is how we started. It connects us to a larger narrative and keeps the work at a human scale. That's really important too. Our goal is not to be a giant company. I love being able to send a swatch I personally knitted. Or show the knitters in person, and learn from them. The way we work – fair trade, is just as important to me as the work we produce. Knowing where our materials come from, and who makes the clothes.
Q: If you could only pick one thing that you thought really accelerated the success of your brand, what would it be?
A: I think images. I come from an image background. I have an art degree. I have worked with photographers for 15 years. I truly see how important it is to be able to speak in images about your product and your mission and really understand how a consumer responds to images. I was so lucky early on to collaborate with photographers and create my own style that works with my vision for the brand.
Q: Sustainable and fair trade practices seem very important to the brand's ethos. Can you tell me about low impact dying and any surprise benefits that come from using this method?
A: The low-impact dyes are soft and gentle on the baby's skin. In visiting the farm outside Lima where we do these dyes, our host put his hand into a dye bath and drank it, because it was just mango. Not something I recommend, but this illustrates just how gentle these dyes are. I love finding people who care about these practices. Working in low impact, ecological ways.
Q: What advice would you give other brands who wish to adopt more sustainable practices?
A: I don't know if it is something you adopt, I think you have to start from the beginning. If you care about it, it's at the centre of your business model. But certainly, I think everyone should care 😉 You cannot compare yourself to other brands not working in this way. It doesn't work. It costs more and might be harder. For me, there is no other way, so it's up to me to get the story across and to let customers understand what is attached to the price tag.
Q: The kidswear market is constantly changing and evolving. What is your current perception of it?
A: I think it's really exciting. When I started out 5 years ago, wool was a HARD sell. Now it's much more mainstream. Wool for babies is not new! But the idea had become lost in the states (northern Europe and Australia, never lost it). But in the states it was synthetic, or cotton, and maybe cashmere in the very high-end market. But wool is so good for babies and children. Now, 5 years in, customers get it, and love it, and really understand the quality and longevity of natural fibres.
Q: Have you noticed anything new or noteworthy in the way that consumers purchase from you? Are there colours or styles that always do better than others?
A: – Choosing the colour story for each season is a really important part of our process. We like working with colours that aren't as common, and are maybe less expected for babies and kids. "Nutmeg" and "Charcoal" are always favorites, because they feel timeless and unisex. Our "Confetti Cake" this past fall was also a big hit – it's a really fun neutral and ties together all of the other colours in the collection. I feel our colour choices are as much a part of the MP brand as the knits themselves. I really consider longevity in choosing the colour palette. I want the customer to know when they invest in a piece, it will last, through many hand-me-downs. The colours aren't trendy, and we try to offer many gender neutral colours a season for just this reason.
Q: Is there anything exciting in the future pipeline for Misha and Puff that you'd like to share?
A: We've always had lots of customers asking for pieces in "adult sizes", and in particular our popcorn sweater, so this past fall we created a grownup-take on the classic kids popcorn. We had a limited-run produced and they did really well! This fall, there might be some new adult knit styles added to the mix…And we may even have a few other secrets down the road too. Stay tuned!

text: Clinical nurse specialists (CNSs) are advanced practice nurses that provide direct patient care and expert consultations in a chosen specialty, such as public health or neonatal nursing. To become a CNS, a licensed RN must earn a master?s and pass a certification exam in the chosen specialization, such as the exams offered by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) that are accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies and the Accreditation Board for Specialty Nursing Certification. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects excellent, overall job growth for registered nurses?especially for CNSs, who increasingly replace physicians as more affordable primary care providers.

Those charged by District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis
Henry Amigable
Amigable is the construction executive behind many of the criminal allegations contained in the charging documents released on Wednesday. According to investigators, Amigable picked up the tabs for food, wine, theater tickets, beauty pageant entries, sporting events and other gifts as a means of winning influence in
Jesus Gandara
A Texas transplant, Gandara was hired in 2006 to succeed the then-departed Superintendent Ed Brand. Brand was rehired after Gandara was terminated in June 2011. The criminal investigation into Gandara began after several stories in The Watchdog, including one about his use of the district credit card and another about "money tree" donations solicited from district contractors attending his daughter's bridal shower. During his five-year stewardship of the Sweetwater district, Gandara repeatedly solicited meals and other gifts from numerous contractors and other vendors, prosecutors say. Gandara was instrumental in steering the lucrative Proposition O construction-management contract to Gilbane/SGI, according to investigators. One example prosecutors cited has Amigable paying $1,103 for a night out to dinner and "Jersey Boys" for Gandara and others in November 2007. In July 2008, SGI executive Jaime Ortiz emails his boss saying that Gandara "implied" SGI and Gilbane should each donate $10,000 to Sweetwater board. In 2007 and 2008, Gandara reported receiving no gifts on state disclosure forms. The former Sweetwater superintendent has not commented publicly on the allegations, but he did hire former D.A. Paul Pfingst as his attorney. Pfingst told The Watchdog this week that many public officials fail to correctly fill out state disclosure forms.
Pearl Quinones
Even before Gandara was hired in 2006, Quinones was meeting privately with Rene Flores, the president of SGI, the Pasadena company that would end up with the lucrative construction-management contract overseeing Proposition O projects, prosecutors say. Court documents say the Sweetwater board member dined with Flores at Greystone in San Diego as early as Jaunary 2006, 10 months before voters even approved the $644 million bond measure. In September 2006, Quinones solicited help from SGI executives to obtain a compensated state commission appointment, documents say. In March 2007, investigators say, Quinones emailed Flores, saying: "It was great seeing you and spending some time with you...enclosed is my resume for you to give to Joe Coto as we discussed... hope you can help me with this...it is really important to me." Coto is a state Assembly member now running for state Senate. Quinones eventually was passed over for the state appointment. Two months after Quinones sent that email, the Sweetwater board awarded the first Proposition O job to Gilbane/SGI. On Jan. 28, 2008, Quinones met privately with Flores for a mid-day lunch, investigators say. Later that night, the Sweetwater board awarded Gilbane/SGI a $7.5 million contract. Quinones repeatedly has declined to comment on the case against her.
Arlie Ricasa
Ricasa is a longtime Sweetwater trustee who also serves on the board of directors of the South Bay social services charity MAAC Project. Like the other current and former elected officials charged Wednesday, Ricasa is accused of accepting gifts and meals in excess of state limits and failing to report others. When investigators searched her home late last month, she denied doing anything wrong and told The Watchdog she had no idea what they were looking for. According to prosecutors, she wrongly solicited donations and gifts from people doing business with the district. In May 2008, for example, an architect complained to Amigable that Ricasa sought donations from him for her campaign, court documents say, adding that Amigable replied in an email a minute later, "yea she hit me up too? I had to deliver over $6k today." That night, at Gandara's recommendation, three Sweetwater trustees, including Ricasa, vote to increase the Gilbane/SGI contract to $9.9 million. Like Gandara, Ricasa reported receiving no gifts on her 2007 and 2008 disclosures.
Greg Sandoval
A longtime Southwestern College administrator who was also a Sweetwater trustee. Prosecutors say Sandoval regularly met in private with Amigable, accepting meals and other gifts worth significant values and failing to report the benefits as required under state law. In August 2008, Sandoval sent Amigable a flier for the Miss South County Pageant and wrote on the flier, "Your support is appreciated," according to prosecutors. The next month Amigable wrote a check for $500 to Vanessa Sandoval, Greg Sandoval's daughter. Many of the meals Sandoval is accused of failing to report were with Southwestern College officials, so it is not clear in court papers whether Sandoval was acting on behalf of the community college or Sweetwater schools when he met and dined with Amigable, who had dealings with both districts. Sandoval left his job at Southwestern College under a cloud of sexual-harassment allegations. He subsequently opted not to seek re-election to the Sweetwater board in 2010. He has said he did nothing wrong and was cooperating with investigators.
