Failure has never been an option for her. At one point while some could have looked solely to Government for support she sold her assets to fund her education in Zambia and the United Kingdom (UK). So driven she is that nothing whatsoever has and could stand in her way. KEITEBE KGOSIKEBATHO reports on this extraordinary woman.
After being ushered through the highly guarded Debswana Corporate Centre gates and doors, we immediately rush up the elevator to the third floor where the Head of Audit Services, Tshego Modise's office lies. At the door stands a pintsized woman with a beaming smile. She doesn't waste any more time or show any disdain that we have kept here waiting; plunging right into pleasantries. "Hi am Tshego, I believe you looking for me," she says with a welcoming gesture to the chairs. We get down to business – to unpack Modise who she is and how she ended up at the high position she holds.
Eldest of siblings
She tells us of how being the eldest among her siblings she had to set the tone, a lesson which was instilled in her so firmly by her father, who also taught her that even though she was a girl she could do anything. "My siblings had to look up to me, and as a result I was forced to excel in everything I did," she says. It is this kind of upbringing that has contributed so much to the person that she is now. She tells of how she was nominated to be a prefect at school despite her tiny figure. Her success academically and her conduct, she says, was always used as a yardstick by her father whenever he counselled her siblings. She, however, admits that there was a lot of pressure in trying to maintain the standard; in between keeping her dad happy and staying on top of her game. But, she says, she has always kept her eyes on the prize anyway. "There is a lot of pressure and you almost sound like your own enemy because you are your own bench mark. You always have to do better than your last achievement. It's like football you always have to do better than your last result," she enthuses. In fact it has always been like that from an early age; after getting straight As in her Primary school leaving examinations, she knew she had to do even better at junior secondary school and at senior secondary school.
Her career
Her auditing career started with the then Price Waterhouse auditing and accounting firm (PWC) as an Audit Trainee Assistant in 1990 after her national service. She was so good that she was offered vacation jobs by the company while pursuing her BCOM (Accounting) degree at the University of Botswana until 1994. Upon completing her studies in May 1994 she joined PWC fulltime as an Audit trainee and progressed through to Audit Supervisor by August 1997 when she left to pursue further studies in Zambia and later in the UK in 1998 as a self-sponsored student. "I had become so passionate about the accounting profession, so I had to sell everything that I had and went to Zambia. Lord behold; while I was there, there was military coup and I had to come back and write my exam, after which I went to the UK still with my own money. It was good investment because look where I am now. So sometimes I think we depend too much on government; it had taken me through my first degree but now it was up to me," she says. When she got back from the UK she joined Botswana Telecommunications Corporation (BTC) in June 1999 as an Internal Auditor. She left in May 2002 to join he current employer Debswana as an Internal Auditor.
Woman factor
According to Modise, she was at the time the only woman in the department, a scenario which she says had its own pluses and minuses. It came with pluses because as the only woman she brought in a different dynamic to the team or was almost a neutraliser, as she puts it. On the flip side, she says, her male colleagues were always mindful that there is a woman in the team. The way they relate to you, according to Modise, was: "You are always a woman first, and a colleague later". However she says it was a challenge that she rose above because she didn't want to be remembered as a woman who was once part of the team but rather a team member who brought in immeasurable performance. "You don't want to be the weakest link despite your gender stories. You want to be equal if not more, so you put in 200 percent to perform at 100 per cent," she insists. Being a self-confessed gender activist that she is, Modise praises her employer Debswana for always consciously balancing gender whenever making employment choices. In her team, she has always held gender empowerment as a priority and has even had male colleagues calling for females to be given preference when hiring to balance off the inequality. "There is something special about women and the kind of emotional intelligence they possess, because at home they multi-task so notwithstanding the workplace, their role is multi-faceted. You put them in a board room; imagine the kind of competence that they can bring against their male counterparts. Their inherent competence to conflict management is often overlooked," she contends.
Leading accountant
Outside of Debswana Modise continues to open doors and smash glass ceilings. She is currently a BICA Council Member and has served as its president and Vice President. She has also been a Council member and treasurer of the Botswana Institute of Accountants (BIA) holding the portfolio of Public relations, and has also serve as ACCA Botswana Network Chairman – had served four years from March 2004 in the committee prior to being elected vice President in 2007. She has also served as the First Botswana ACCA Ambassador in 2008 to 2010. Although she sacrifices her extra time and leave days to serve in these voluntary positions, Modise appreciates her employer for being supportive and generous in sharing with the nation the talents of its employees. She, however, credits her ability to balance work, family and voluntary services to the ability to plan and the support she gets from her family.
She advises other women to always have self-belief. According to Modise, women and young girls should always recognise opportunities and grab them with both hands despite their expectations. "I for one wanted to be a lawyer, but I happened to be given an accounting course. But did I sulk, no; I grabbed it with both hands and ended up loving it, look where Iam now," she says. As if her hectic life is not alone enough, Modise says she cycles to keep fit. Although an activity that she stumbled upon, she is now addicted to cycling so much that she recently got herself a new top of the range bicycle.

Why Mendenhall Will Remain The Starter
Rashard Mendenhall will not be relinquishing his job to Willie Parker any time soon. Parker will remain in a subordinate, spot duty role. There are several reasons.
Obviously, Mendenhall's yards per carry; over five per carry, compared to Parker's sub-four yards per carry total makes it an almost no-brainer.
The fact that Tomlin picked Mendenhall can not be overlooked. Tomlin picks better than people are giving him credit so far. He is the reason Stephan Logan was picked to come to the Steelers this year. He's the reason there's a short yardage surprise the Steelers have squirreled away for a rainy day in Isaac Redman. Tomlin picked Mendenhall. That says a lot.
Mendenhall has brought the Steelers more of a short yardage threat in the interim. The line has a lot to do with that. If the line just happened to jell when Parker was hurt, it's no indictment of him but it is what it is. Success has been reaped using this formula. Mendenhall is smart, obviously. Rashard Mendenhall is a very well versed, intelligent young man. Fast Willie Parker is a nice guy but he will never be confused for a Rhodes Scholar. I think Mendenhall being punished for not acting up to his potential has pushed him to meet or exceed his potential since then. Another sign of his intelligence is his response to that challenge.
Willie Parker should still get a load of carries. I don't want to see his days as a Steeler end but I have the feeling that's what is coming. The Steelers do have a great problem on their hand, having all the talent on the active roster and Redman on the practice squad. I see a potential two headed monster today that could be a three headed monster, but the passing game is so successful that neither seem likely to happen. Parker will probably leave the Steelers next year and Redman will be on the active roster and we fans will be harping that we don't get to see the two headed monster.

Are you looking for the Best Government Auto Dealers in Columbia, SC?
Are you in need of a vehicle and are tired of the time spent looking for government auto dealers Columbia SC as available? If so do not worry, I have put together for you the following guide on how to find the best government car dealerships in the entire Columbia and West Columba, SC area.
After we are finished here today you will be able to find the best government car dealers in Columbia that offer test drives and a service center that have the best-certified technicians tire rotations and service appointments. They also offer many other parts and services.
To see firsthand on how a government car auction works, try and take some time and watch the following video:
How To Find Government Auto Dealers & Car Auctions In Columbia, SC
Check the Internet
It is very difficult to locate a nearby government auction because opportunities may be smaller depending on location. However, you must use appropriate sources to find them, such as online government auctions, which may occasionally display sales before the auction.
To use these sites, it is necessary to register using the buyer registration form and send personal data. These websites provide a list of government vehicles and seized cars that can be purchased with useful information about bidding. Tables vary, but you can generally expect public sales like this to happen once or twice in a particular month. The frequency may be lower for cities with low demand for car purchases.
In any case, local newspapers, publications, and the Internet are good places to start. If you buy a newspaper regularly, check the Ads section. You can also browse websites that provide information about these auctions because most of these sites are reliable and up-to-date.
Read Reader Reviews
Perhaps the first step is reading reader reviews. It is likely that the best sellers will have opinions about them. Find a fair website with an agent overview that works with local agents to get a good picture of the overall quality of the agent and how they interact with customers.
The best business location is one of those sites that offer reliable ratings. BBB can be particularly useful, given the fact that it stores documents related to customer complaints for up to 36 months. These records always show whether complaints have been resolved in accordance with the BBB policy.
Consult a Professional Government Agency
Cars that are sold as part of a government auto auction are often those that are held by investigation agencies against criminals. Some cars are stopped by citizens who have not paid taxes. The most important source of vehicles sold in auctions sponsored by the government is cars owned by the government or its various agencies. These vehicles are used by employees and agents.
These cars usually do not have more than three years and usually are in good condition. They are well maintained in low mileage. They also have power steering, power windows, and air conditioners. Buying at a government auto dealer requires some learning because it is part of art and part of learning.
However, this can be a great way to buy used high-quality cars very cheap. But it is always good to consult a professional agency when it comes to finding the best distributor in town. Agencies act as a link between buyers and car dealers.
They can help you by providing the necessary details about the car dealerships in the Columbia and West Columbia South Carolina areas. Regardless of whether you are looking for a used or new car, you can narrow the search list by brand, budget, and color. This will help you take advantage of the best car offers.
Use the help of the Insurance Agent
Use the help of an insurance agent who is usually well equipped with information about all Auto Dealers Linking a reputable distributor in the market may help you make the right decision.
Use the vehicle sales database
Another way to look for state auctions is the vehicle sales database. Some are free, and many people are required to pay membership fees for registration. This is the best way to look for sales because once you sign up, you can go directly to the website and enter your zip code, and immediately provide an inventory of the listings near your home.
The advantage of using a paid membership site is that most people will not see where the auctions take place, which means that the number of bidders is lower and lower.
Consult your friends and teacher
You can also ask people – experts, friends, and family about dealers in Columbia, SC who want to find them. It's a common practice to ask other people about their experiences with merchants. If you do, you can instantly find out which dealer is likely to give you the best offer. If a person or friend is happy, it is likely to talk about it.
Look around for traders as well, collect as many prices as possible and find out their circumstances. Then choose a company that can offer the best offer. Choose a distributor that provides a wide range of services you may need in the future. These services include car rental, service hours and information on the prices of services and transportation services.
Another thing you need to make sure that the Auto Dealers you choose is reputable. The main reason for this is that you can make sure you have the right offer. For other agents who are not speculators, this may be a risk to you.
So invest a lot of money, it's good to get the right contract and get the best car for you. So be sure to follow this advice when looking for government merchants.
Next thing you need to make sure that the selected Auto Dealers is trustworthy. This is one of the most important tips. The main reason for this is that you invest a lot of money and want to buy a car from a trusted dealer. By choosing a reliable dealer, you can make sure that you will definitely get your car.
There were cases where the fraudulent salesman did not deliver the car after receiving the payment. So make sure you do not skip this tip. You can take a look at the papers, search the web, or register in the database site. All of them give their advantages and disadvantages, and the feature you decide will depend on all resources and time available.
How Goverment Car Auctions & Dealers Operate
Many people are currently looking for an alternative way to buy a vehicle. Government car dealers have many new and used vehicles such as sedans, coupes, cars, trucks, and SUVs. They are becoming more popular because of the easy access and wonderful offers they have. With all government surpluses and savings of thousands of dollars, Government auto dealers in the Columbia area have become popular for the public to get many vehicles at highly reduced prices.
When you are ready to buy a new car for yourself and family, you need to know the best options for getting the largest car for your money so you can get exactly what you want and do not spend all your savings to get them. To get the new car you need, you can use so-called government car dealers. You can get a car at the government auto dealers better than the dealership at a lower price.
These surplus government vehicles, usually under the control of the General Services Department, are essentially two or three years old. This fleet consists of cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs. Everything is in good condition and ready for immediate sale. Government car dealers are detained throughout the country at an agreed time throughout most of the year and are always available to the public.
At the Government Auto Dealership, cars are taken and the extra will come, and there are other types of vehicles waiting to find the buyer. You can buy cars from these dealers, there are various payment methods accepted including cash and credit cards as well as cashier checks and cash orders.
As long as you are 18 years or older and you have a valid driver's license, you can participate in this auction. The good news is that you do not have to pay any fees to register to participate in the auction.
There are some amazing versions found at the car dealer. No really, you will get the best deals on the auctions created by the US Government Public Service Department, where more than thirty-five thousand vehicles are sold every year. Most of these vehicles have very low mileage and many of them also have one owner's cars.

It's an idea that has been so successful, Mark Kresl wants to offer it to other nursing home and assisted living residents in the Florence area.
In a December 30, 2015 Knicely Done story, WOWT 6 News reported on a newly implemented Skype program at Florence Home that was bringing residents of the facility closer to family members who live out of town.
The face-to-face meetings on the internet provided a boost for the residents, many of whom seldom have a visitor.
Kresl wants to provide the same opportunity to the residents at two other residences: Royale Oaks and House of Hope.
"But that's an expensive proposition," said Kresl in an interview with WOWT 6 News. "And so in thinking about different things we can do to help raise the money, I was thinking one day about the great restaurants we have in North Omaha and Florence. I put the two of them together and the "Taste of Florence" was born and that's gonna the the engine that drives the Skype program at our other three residences."
The family event will be held on Sunday September 11, 2016 at Florence Home Healthcare from 1 pm to 5 pm. A variety of cuisine from restaurants in North Omaha and Florence will be featured along with activities and live music.
Included in the afternoon of entertainment will be a pumpkin carving contest between a team of Doctors and a team of Chefs.
"We're a facility that has a medical element to it but we didn't want to have just Doctors or Surgeons involved in the competition," explained Kresl. "So I thought we would throw in the artistry of Culinary Chefs, I didn't anticipate that it would turn into as heated a rivalry as it's turned out to be though."
That rivalry was evident when we caught up with a member from each team with our WOWT 6 News camera.
Dr. Alex Dworak of One World Community Health Center laid down some bold trash talk while working out in a fitness room for the event. "I try to have an even sharper mind," he said. "That's the important thing, to leave the Chefs crying in embarrassment."
From the kitchen of the Culinary Institute at Metropolitan Community College, Chef Peter Walsh retorted, "A bunch of capillary cutters aren't going to stand in my way of victory at Taste of Florence! I'm coming for ya, Alex."
A video of the two pumpkin carving contestants is included with this story.

Knicely Done!

Research shows that the best workout for weight loss is a combination of strength training and cardiovascular work, not just one or the other. You want to do exercise that expends a lot of calories. That requires a very big exchange of heat in your body. Any activity can do that, but the combination of weight training and cardio together is the most effective way of burning the most calories in the time that you have.
Also, once you do your combination of weight training and cardio, the key to continuing making improvements is to change the workload. Your body will plateau after a certain point, because it adapts to the stress you put upon it. You have to put more stress on the body. Whether you work out with more intensity, or longer, or with more weight, you've got to do something harder than what you were doing before if you want your body to change. Most people don't do that because it's very uncomfortable to do. Most people don't train hard enough to elicit changes in their body. It's hard to do, but if you're patient with it, you get used to the discomfort.

– Think about whether it is worth to go crazy, sacrifice happiness for some idea. – they said.
And for 15 years I am sure of one and I answer: It's worth it.
Is it easy for a man to give up love, freedom, joy, sense of life, fullness of life, peace, hope and identity? How many of you could easily do that? Give up at least one of those things forever? I mean: never know what they really are, but discard them forever and start to go in the opposite direction?
And having known all this, tasting it and living it, how many of you would like to give up? Having come to know true love – abandon it. Having known freedom as never before – renounce it. Give up peace, joy and reject real identity?
That was more or less one seemingly simple question to me when a Man of my life stood in my way and I told him YES. Yeshua Hamashiach.
There were many other people before me. Among othes, Jan Hus – burned at the stake – sang. Mary Johnson, whose twenty-year-old son died from hands of a sixteen-year-old, Oshea Israel, years later, she not only truly forgives Oshea, but recognizes him as his "second son." Bob, whose wife had a short affair with a young boy. He not only forgives her, takes her back, but also becomes a true, loving father for a child – the fruit of one night.
Anyone who decided to give their hand to Yeshua had to face some irrational decision. Irrational in the eyes of the world, which says rather:
"I do not know about you, but I got used to the fact that Jesus is a historical figure, the subject of Sunday sermon (…) And still around December I associate with a baby with a Christmas card (…) Jesus is Jesus for us comfortable, safe, predictable. Celebrity of antiquity, who introduced a few timeless principles, but otherwise does not suit my surroundings and has little to do with my everyday life. "
Joanna Śliż writes in her book "Największe głupstwo w oczach świata" (lit. The greatest foolishnessin the eyes of the world) Perversely.
"What if He is someone quite different from His image, which in my mind and heart created culture, television, my experiences?" – she continues.
And what if,
One day and I stopped on this question. Because I needed someone who embraces more than me. Who has one idea more and this idea is a remedy for everything that troubles me. If they say that a man can do anything, then I began to wonder where this power center is. Because somewhere must be somewhere farther than my mind, my life experience, my I CAN.
And he came. And he made himself known from another side, he showed Himself as someone completely different than my previous image of Him.
He fired me the system. But he did it in such a way that when I read it again and again
– You're freaking out, Paul! – they said.
I say to him: Paul, I am not surprised at all. Really.
You can go mad for Him
Be in the eyes of other people a finite naive who believes in Heaven like a little child. To be the one who is not afraid of the NYSE crash or chemical trails. Because if He says:
You will have tribulation in the world, but trust me, I have overcome the world!
And he says that in Him I will have peace, no matter what, I have no questions! And then he still pours this peace into my heart, what should I want more?
But! I … ..can want more, I am to want more because he talks about it too! That he has a grace for me, and that what the eye has not seen and the ear has not heard, and what he did not enter into the human heart, God has prepared for those who love him.
And to think that it is enough to prove yourself … an idiot? Joanna Śliż is already explaining to me what I did (she too!)
"And yet, nowadays, Jesus somehow fits more in the frames in which he has been fitted by my culture and the world around me. He does not offend anyone, he does not shock, he does not overturn the tables. He does not care much about anyone, he does not want to have contact with anyone. I guess you would have to be an idiot to embrace someone like that? Somewhere high up in the sky, he calmly observes our constantly rushing civilization. Is it the same Jesus who walked the earth more than 2,000 years ago? "(" Największe głupstwo w oczach świata" wyd. Vocatio)
Is He really like everyone says? Is it worth to know Him at all?
"When we accept the" foolishness "of the Gospel, He arranges a party for us in Heaven! No refreshments – a cookie and a coffee that is served to unannounced guests. The feast that the Father in Heaven has sent for me is still going on. Music and dances have never died down. If we turn our hearts to God, we become for him the joy that he has for us all the time – no matter what the circumstances. " – this is not the end of the man-who-crazy-for-Yeshua quotes.
I happen to contact the author of the book, who has been living in the USA for years. I was curious about something and it happened that Ms. Joanna met my curiosity. I'm sharing!
Ms. Joanna, what are your observations regarding believing in Jesus and believing Jesus in the USA and in Poland. How would you compare it?
'In Poland, most people are raised in the families of believers: we believe that Jesus Christ is God, that he is alive – only that somewhere far away in the sky and that it ends there. Many people believe in this way throughout their lives, although more and more often in Poland there is a greater hunger for a deeper knowledge and experience of God – not only from holidays, but every day. People are increasingly looking, asking, are more open.
In the United States, Christians are mainly Protestants, although here also often belonging to a church or a denomination does not necessarily mean that someone is truly a sincere believer or a convert. Often Americans' faith comes down to saying a formula or one-time prayer, and later "Heaven can wait!"
In my opinion – whether in Poland or in the United States – to believe means that I consciously abandon "faith", which is limited only to the belief that Jesus is some-there-myself-god and I start to seriously believe not only in that he is indeed the Savior, but that I desperately need his Savior. What's more, I need Him not only after death, but every day – in all my struggles, problems and decisions. And faith in Him means that I agree with what He thinks and decide to live by His standards. Some call "the fruit of conversion." And if we take the Gospel seriously, then these fruits will be similar, regardless of the geographical location. It is through fruits that we know who is really a believer – be it in Poland, in the States or anywhere else in the world. Such people – despite cultural or denominational differences – will live according to the most important commandment: You will love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself. (Luke 10:27)'
Maybe you are now at the crossroads – something in you would like a different reality, a total change for the better, but this second voice tells you: It will not work, do not be stupid, it's a figment.
I want to say today: Be stupid. One more time! Strongly find out who is the one for whom billions of people have gone mad over the centuries (John 12:19), and still others are stupid – taking the grace of grace (gift after gift) writing these words in freedom, joy, peace. Maybe soon you will write your testimony?

We married after three months of knowing each other. December 27, 2013. Brian my husband just lost his best friend to cancer 10 days earlier. It was sad for him but we had each other.
The first year of our marriage was awesome and then on January 29, 2014 Brian was very sick and got the diagnosis of liver disease. He gave it a great fight, but could never get well enough to get on the transplant list and he died at 44 years old on January 24 2016. Our second year was sickness, hospitals and me be a caregiver...to the man I love waste away.
I had to make those decisions that no one wants to make and it is still breaking my heart, but one thing I know is that hospice care made his last days pain free and he did not suffer and for that I am forever grateful.

Over the last four years the Interconfessional Bible Society of Albania has had a successful and growing sports ministry with the youth in their country. Through coaching and sports activities children and young people have been engaging with the Bible and growing socially and spiritually.
The Bible Society is taking a big step with this project and have plans in place to build a sports centre where they can continue this ministry and reach more young people, organisations and churches with the Word of God.
The staff at the Bible Society say, "the 'Friends for Life' sport centre is a mission and investment project that will offer the opportunity for children coming from families in need, teenagers and youth to benefit from continuous sports training and events, helping them also to encounter the message of the Bible for the first time and to get more engaged with the Scriptures throughout the year."

The first house to be fully powered by solar energy has been put on the housing market for £1.2million.
Situated in Great Glen, Leicestershire the five-bedroom property solely relies on energy collected by hybrid solar panels during the summer to provide electricity and hot water throughout winter and all-year-round.
Constructed by Caplin Homes, it is thought that the technology used for the Leicestershire solar house will be utilised across a range of test projects with partnered house builders in the near future.But how far will these investments stretch?
The true energy flow of the structure will be closely studied by a full-time masters student at Nottingham's De Montfort University. Early calculations will be released in April, with a full-on year report coming in August 2014.
Caplin Homes have suggested that they will test the technology on homes of varying sizes in order to establish whether the technology will translate sufficiently in smaller homes as well as larger buildings.
The house in Leicestershire is slated to already have significant interest from potential buyers.
three million jobs. We are well placed to take advantage of new and emerging energy efficient technologies, commercialise them and then export them across the world."

Many factors influence the procedures and requirements for bringing goods across German borders – notably the nature of the goods, modes of transport, final destination and purpose of the goods concerned. Germany's status as a European Union (EU) Member State is also a highly significant factor; whether goods are dispatches from other EU Member States or exports from non-EU countries is of the utmost importance when it comes to the applicable customs process.
The customs territory of the EU includes nearly all of Germany, with the exception of the Island of Heligoland and the territory of Büsingen.
By and large, intra-EU movements of goods are unrestricted, with minimal internal trade barriers. This means that in most cases European goods need not comply with the onerous customs documentation and border controls associated with exports coming from outside the EU. Goods are deemed to be in 'free circulation' and will not require a commodity code. Quantities of exports will also not be limited.
Practically speaking, however, some restrictions do apply to intra-EU dispatches and acquisitions, and specific rules must be observed where certain goods and/or excisable products are concerned.
Some goods are considered restricted imports across the EU, regardless of their country of origin. These include:
Excise goods also attract special procedural rules. Across the EU, alcoholic drinks, tobacco, and energy products are carefully monitored and require official accompanying documentation. Excise duty must also be paid.
Germany also implements a national coffee excise duty.
EU countries implement trade defence instruments which can mean additional procedural and documentary requirements for certain categories of good and countries of origin, or altogether prohibition. Examples include:
Mandatory import licences issued by Member State authorities for particular categories of goods;
Import quotas on particular products exported from non-EU countries;
Temporary, emergency restrictions of some specific imports.
All goods imported into Germany from non-EU countries must be cleared by customs, and unsurprisingly the restrictions that apply to categories of goods imported from outside the EU are broader than those that apply to goods dispatched within. Additional restricted items include:
An EORI number is a unique identification number assigned by a Member State customs authority to an eligible economic operator (EO). This number:
Submitting an ENS is an EU customs requirement. An ENS provides information on cargo entering the EU, and must be lodged at the first EU customs office encountered by a carrier of goods/importer/representative before these goods are moved into the customs territory of the Union. Deadlines for submission depend upon modes of transport.
Importantly, some of the information that a carrier/importer is obliged to include in the ENS originates from documents submitted by an exporter.
Following submission of an ENS, goods for import are placed into temporary storage under customs supervision until they are assigned a customs approved treatment – such as the release of goods for free circulation – and all regulatory requirements are met.
Goods are released for free circulation (or other customs-approved treatments) upon the presentation of a SAD, which is either submitted electronically or delivered directly to a Member State's customs office by an importer/representative. This document is the equivalent of an import declaration and is the common form for all EU Member States. Its completion is necessary whatever the mode of transport used for imported goods.
A customer/importer may have to pay VAT, customs duties and/or excise duties on goods imported into Germany before he can obtain them. Applicable taxes and duties depend upon whether such goods are dispatches from other EU Member States, or exports from non-EU countries.
No customs duties must be paid when goods are dispatched to Germany from other EU countries. With VAT, however the situation is more complex.
A seller may have to:
Applicable rules depend upon whether or not buyers in Germany are VAT registered:
|Customer is VAT-registered in country of residence
|Customer is not VAT-registered in country of residence
|The seller will not pay any VAT, as goods sent to someone who is registered for VAT in another EU country are zero-rated.
A seller will require a buyer's VAT registration number for his VAT return, as well as paperwork proving that the goods have been sent within specified time limits.
|Distance selling' occurs when a VAT-registered business in one EU country supplies and delivers goods to a customer in the EU who isn't VAT–registered (i.e. a private individual).
When distance selling into Germany a seller has to register for German VAT if the annual value of his distance sales exceed the German distance selling threshold of €100,000.
If the annual value of a seller's distance sales into Germany are <€100,000, he must charge VAT at the rate that applies in his own EU country and account for VAT there. If the value of a seller's distance sales goes over this German limit then he will have to register for German VAT. He must then charge VAT on his VAT-taxable distance sales at the German rate (19% or 7%) and account for it in Germany.
If excise goods are sent to Germany by an EU seller, the excise duty must be included in the price of goods. If not, the goods may be seized at customs.
Whether it is a commercial entity or a private individual importing goods into Germany from outside the EU, duties and taxes will likely become due.
Under usual circumstances, a product's commodity code must be identified. This code determines the level of duty and tax that must be paid, and identifies whether a license is required. Regulations, trade measures and product standards are harmonised across most EU member states.
Where duty has already been paid and other import conditions have been met, goods that have been produced outside the EU and brought in are in free circulation. Where this is not the case, the rules for importing goods from non-EU countries must be followed.
The EU operates a common external customs tariff based upon the harmonised system of the World Customs Organisation to goods that are imported from non-EU countries. Applicable tariff rates can be researched at the Integrated Tariff of the European Union database.
Duty rates applied typically range between 0% and 17%. Some products – e.g., many electronics – are duty free. Some goods can also be subject to additional duties depending on their country of origin.
Most import duties are calculated ad valorem, meaning they are expressed as a percentage of the CIF (cost, insurance and freight) value of the imported goods.
An importer/customer may have to pay 'import' VAT on goods imported into the EU from outside the territory before they are released from customs. The standard rate of VAT for importing products into Germany is 19%, however certain products attract a reduced rate of 7%. VAT is calculated on the CIF price of goods plus any import duty due.
Excise duties will also become payable on the import of certain goods into Germany, including alcohol, tobacco and coffee products.
Fortunately for consumers buying relatively inexpensive goods, Germany imposes duty-free thresholds below which imports into the country have customs duties and VAT waived.
Customs duty will not be payable if the value of the goods imported (excluding shipping and insurance cost) does not exceed €150.VAT will not be payable if the value of the goods imported (excluding shipping and insurance cost) does not exceed €22.Both duty and VAT are waived if the combined value of the customs duty and VAT incurred does not exceed €5.
The legislation and tax applicable to you when selling to German consumers will vary depending on whether you are an EU incorporated entity or operating outside of the Union.
Germany boasts a well-developed e-commerce environment therefore giving German consumers the option to be picky when purchasing from online stores.
German consumers are traditional in their online payment methods, favouring direct debit or online bank transfer mechanisms.

This is the best relaxing stress reliever bubble bath tea I have ever used. Especially during this stressful time it took all my stress away
This pack is great if you are having a hard time trying to figure out what bubble bath you want to buy. I love all of them but the muscle rescue is for sure my favorite
Customer Reviews
These are my favorites! Great after a hard workout!
I am a complete skeptic when it comes to lotions. I have very sensitive skins that adversely respond to most lotions on the market, but have very dry skin that needs moisture. A lovely catch 22:) Prior to giving this lotion a try, my favorite was Mary Kay Satin Hands. Now I can safely say it is this Goat Milk Lotion! The smell is perfectly balanced, not overwhelming, but not underwhelming either. A dime-sized amount completely covers my hands and up my forearms to my elbow. Immediately after applying, my skin absorbed it and within 30 seconds was moist and not greasy! I really hate having a lotion that leaves a greasy residue over everything you touch... makes my computer keyboard so gross. Here we are in the dead of winter and I have found that my skin is not chapping as fast and looks supple and even! Thank you for this awesome lotion. Now hopefully you can keep it in stock enough so that I can order more :)
Customer Reviews

Made With A Mission products are awesome! The soaps work really well I also put the soaps in my clothing drawers & closets to make my clothes smell fresh. The soaps and Goat Milk Lotions are amazing for my skin!! I also love the bath teas! It makes me feel like I am at a spa. These products are amazing
I absolutely LOVE every single product

EVENT DATE: Jul 13, 2014
World Cup LA is a community-based public viewing festival throughout Los Angeles featuring live broadcasts of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. More than a sports-related event, the purpose of World Cup LA is to celebrate the diverse and vibrant people and places that make up our city.
A sprawling metropolis shaped in years past by private over public interests, Los Angeles has endured tremendous challenges with a promising resilience. Despite a history of segregation reinforced by a physical environment that more often divides than unites us, our city has emerged as one that is not only concerned with individuality and independence but also values connection and community. The popularity of CicLAvia, revitalization of the L.A. River and grassroots activation of countless streets, parks and abandoned lots all demonstrate our eagerness to step out of our cars and homes, meet our neighbors and reclaim our public spaces.
A truly global city, the World Cup has long ignited the passions of Angelenos just as it has of those all around the world. Many of us have made the choice to forego watching matches in the comfort of our homes and instead share the experience with our fellow Angelenos. At the end of the day, we have found ourselves not only cheering for our respective teams but also celebrating our city and each other.
For this year's World Cup, we are planning a series of pop-up public viewing events as well as encouraging other to do the same! Inspired by a scene repeated all over the world, TVs will be placed facing sidewalks and other public spaces for people to gather around and share this experience with their neighbors.
While many festivals of this type are one-offs with no lasting impact, the events of World Cup LA are being planned in partnership with local community organizations and are being designed to contribute to their ongoing efforts to strengthen the low-income neighborhoods they work in throughout the city.
With your support, World Cup LA will take advantage of the world's most popular sporting event to bring people together and build on the progress we are making to transform LA into a more inclusive, livable and healthy city.
Thank you!

Thames Valley Kings v Aces 1
FBC Centre
23 March 2019 | 16:00
Squad: Leanna Adams, Ella Beaumont, Charlie Adams, Zviko Chigumba, Barry Wells, George Winsborrow, Craig Winspear & Andy White
The Game: Aces travelled to Wokingham to play neighbours Thames Valley Kings in British Wheelchair Basketballs Division 2 South. The game started with Kings winning possession from the tip who made their first attack of the game count with 2 points from Reece Barker. Aces were to follow with their first points of the game courtesy of a well-taken shot from Leanna Adams. The first quarter continued with both teams fighting for the lead but it was the home side that ended the first quarter with a narrow lead, 12-8.
The second quarter got underway with the first points of the period coming from Aces. However, like the first quarter another basket soon followed courtesy of the other team. The quarter continued in an end-to-end fashion until Kings took control of the quarter from the seventh minute. Half time score 28-18.
With halftime over and both teams back on court saw Kings really up the tempo and take hold of the game. Although Aces were able to convert the first points of the quarter Kings were able to limit the travelling sides scoring to only one further basket, whilst they themselves went on to convert nine shots throughout the quarter.
The fourth and final quarter got underway with Aces wanting to prove a point to themselves and to their opponents. The travelling side managed to find a gear that they had struggled to find with any consistency throughout the game. Aces were able to tighten their defence whilst also creating some clearer shots at baskets, which saw their conversion rate increase. It wasn't enough though as Kings saw out the game, going on to win 62-35.

Forward Labs solar roof promises higher production, lower cost than Tesla's
The unicorn of cheap clean home energy will most likely be found in an affordable solar roof that doesn't look like a solar roof, and that can pay for itself quickly. This startup may have developed it.
With all of the hoopla over Tesla's solar roof offering, which drew a little bit of fire for Musk's claim that it will "actually cost less than a normal roof," it can be easy to miss some of the current and upcoming solar roof contenders, such as SunTegra. But there are other companies innovating in the thin-film, building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV), solar tile, solar blinds, and solar roof sector, such as Forward Labs, which is now taking reservations for its product for 2018.
Forward Labs, a startup based in Palo Alto, California, has developed a standing-seam style solar roofing solution that aims to blend in, rather than stand out. In fact, at first glance, it looks like nothing more than a normal metal roof, and could probably pass muster for even the most conservative HOA covenants, and yet it could provide decades of low-cost renewable energy. And not only that, it's not just a solar tile or panel, but rather a layered system of components that combines a tempered glass surface and solar cells and a concealed racking system into "a brave new roof for our brave new world."
"Our goal in bringing our solar roof to market was threefold. We aimed to develop an integrated solar roof system that looks great, optimizes energy output, and accelerates the return on investment. Other solar roofs simply do not offer the same return that homeowners expect for their money.
"The way we achieved such fantastic cost savings was fairly simple. We use more affordable materials than our competitors and employ standard manufacturing processes. The roof's installation process is simple and quick—we can install our system in half the time that other companies can. The benefit to homeowners is a return on their investment that cuts the usual solar payback time in half." - Zach Taylor, CEO and Product Architect of Forward Labs.
According to the company website, the non-solar portions of the roof will cost approximately $8.50/sqft, and the solar roof will cost about $3.25 per watt, with a total install time of 2-3 days. With multiple beta installations already in operation, Forward Labs is taking reservations with a $1000 refundable deposit toward pre-orders of its first production roofs in 2018, initially focused in and around San Francisco. In an interesting environmentally responsible twist, the company also states that it is "partnering with emerging asphalt recycling facilities" to deal with the roofs it removes as it installs the solar roof systems.

Public Health and the Law. In the United States, prior to the 1930s, public health efforts were primarily undertaken at local and state levels. After the Great Depression, the federal government was called upon to intervene on behalf of its vulnerable populations. Since that time, debates over federal versus state roles in public health efforts have taken center stage in government and politics (Turncock, 2012, 79).

Aim To study the influence of cystic fibrosis (CF) on intrauterine growth of the fetus, newborn and infant child with CF, from CF mother.
Methods We used tests such as sweat test and the molecular diagnostic tests, spirometry, sputum bacteriological examination, HRCT, to assess the pulmonary distress and faecal elastase, for determining the degree of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency to a CF pregnant and her child to confirm CF and health assessment. For monitoring the evolution of pregnancy was performed simple and Doppler ultrasound examination.
Results We report a case of CF female, born in 1992, with CFTR genotype F508del/F508del. She got pregnant at 22 years old, being on a CF stage associated with COPD (from 11 years old), bilateral saccular bronchiectasis, multiple air cysts of the right upper lobe, pulmonary fibrosis, chronic pulmonary infection with Ps.aeruginosa, B.cepacia, St.maltophilia, II degree chronic respiratory failure, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency associated with growth severe disorders (weight – 43 kg, height – 158 cm, BMI – 17,22).
During pregnancy the fetus suffered intrauterine chronic hypoxia, chronic placental insufficiency and intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), induced by severe chronic respiratory failure of pregnant women, due to uncontrolled pulmonary complications.
At the term of 35 gestation weeks, by planned caesarean section, was born a boy, with a body mass of 1470 g, height 40 cm, head circumference 29 cm, thoracic circumference 23 cm, Apgar score 7/8.
The clinical examination of the newborn found IUGR, with a weight and stature deficiency. In the first month of life, a newborn was diagnosed with CF, by determining the mutation F508del/F508del, faecal elastase-1<200 µg/g. The imaging examination of the child showed no pulmonary and abdominal organ pathologic changes. In the neonatal period the child administrates treatment with Creon 1,000 IU/kg, with gradual increase up to 5000–8000 IU/kg/24 hour. During the first 3 weeks the child has gained 210 g, at the age of 3 months his body mass was 2600 g, and at the age of 1 year – 10 kg, 2 years – 12 kg, 3 years – 14 kg.
Conclusion The pregnancy in the patient with a severe form of CF, with chronic pulmonary destructive changes, height and weight severe deficiencies passes with complications and negative impacts upon the child with chronic intrauterine hypoxia, IUGR, highly marked morphological and functional immaturity, which was caused from impact by CF of the child too.

When it comes to taking great photos, you don't need the most expensive, high-quality camera. Today, most of us can take beautiful, quality photos with equipment that can fit in our pockets!
In the past few years, smartphone cameras have come a long way. Today, iPhones and most Androids can take pictures that rival professional quality cameras. Gone are the days of fuzzy, pixelated cell phone photos. With a little education and editing magic, you can take photos that will look great on your website and social media!
Here's how:
Focus on a single subject
A loud background and multiple different objects stuffed in one image can make for a crowded and confusing photo. Instead, try making a single thing the star of each picture. Crop out distractions, shoot against a simple background and focus your lens on the star of your photo. Remember, you can always take and post more than one shot if you have multiple items to shoot!
Use the rule of thirds
The rule of thirds is a technique used by photographers and artists to create balanced and eye-catching shots. To use this technique, turn on the grid in your camera. In iPhones, you can do this by going to Settings > Photos & Camera and enabling the Grid switch. You should place the most important things in the photo along the lines or on the corners where the lines intersect so that your photo is naturally balanced.
Utilize white space
White space (or negative space) is the empty space around your image. Leaving plenty of white space will draw attention to your subject and leave your photo feeling clean and focused. Tip: If you know your image will be used in conjunction with text (for example: on a flyer, website graphic, Instagram story etc.) plan to leave plenty of white space on the sides or top of your image to ensure that there will be a readable place for your text.
Find good lighting
Good lighting is the foundation of any great photo. We recommend using soft natural light whenever possible. Standard overhead lights can create harsh shadows and unnatural yellow hints. To combat this, take photos outside (just before sunset is best!), in a well-lit room or next to a window.
Consider Final Layout
If possible, it's a good idea to consider the final placement of your image before you even take the photo. This will help you decide photo dimensions and orientation – should it be square? Landscape? Will it be a long photo used for Instagram photos?
Depending on the type of photo this can also help you decide on any extra camera features that might be useful. Blast mode will help you take great action shots and portrait mode is always recommended when taking pictures of people.
Experiment with apps
When you have your photo, it's time to create some editing magic. There are a lot of different apps to help you edit your photos, but we recommend Facetune, VSCO and the Photoshop app to help you get your photo just right!
We know if you follow a few of these tips, you'll be shooting pro photos in no time! Do you have another favorite app or tool that gets your photos just right? Send us a note and let us know what photo magic you can't live without!
