Baskets have a multitude of uses around the home. Use them to corral your kids' craft supplies, small toys and game pieces. Dress up the bathroom with a basketful of colorful washcloths. Set a small basket near the front door to stash car keys, cell phones and school permission forms. But old, plain baskets can be boring and outdated. With a little bit of creativity, give those baskets a new look.
A quick coat of paint turns a boring, natural-tone basket into a colorful accessory for any room in your home. Dust the basket before painting, and sand away any rough spots, stains or mildew marks. Use spray paint for full, even coverage with a shiny, smooth finish. For a shabby chic, weathered style, dry brush the basket. Dip a stiff-bristled paintbrush into latex paint, then wipe most of the paint away with a rag. Lightly brush the barely-wet brush over the basket, leaving a streaky, uneven coat of paint that looks like time and use has weathered the color.
It's time consuming, but weaving beads around a basket adds color, texture and funky style. You'll need fishing line or clear thread, a large sewing needle and a selection of your favorite beads. Knot the fishing line onto the basket's upper edge, then weave the fishing line in and out of the basket, securing a bead in place with each loop. You don't want a perfect look, so space the beads by eye, not with a ruler. Continue to loop beads around the basket until you reach the bottom edge.
With a hot glue gun and a few embellishments, you can turn your boring basket into a decorating statement. Cut the stems off faux flowers, and glue the heads around the basket's edge for a flirty touch. Show off a collection of small seashells by gluing them in place over the basket's handle and edge. Glue a grapevine garland complete with little bunches of grapes to the basket, and use it to hold napkins, corkscrews and other home-bar necessities. Work on the basket when the kids are busy elsewhere, as hot glue can cause a nasty burn.
If you want a natural, casual and unusual look, cover your basket with moss. It's a messy project, so lay out newspaper or a drop cloth to protect your workspace. You'll need white glue, and Spanish moss or reindeer moss, both found at most craft stores. Press small pieces of moss into thickly spread glue, working your way from the basket's bottom edge up. Periodically gently shake the basket to knock off any unglued pieces of moss, then fill in empty spaces. Finish by gluing moss over both sides of the basket's handle. Display the finished basket where little hands won't be able to reach it, as the moss is delicate.

Turning something you love into a business is the dream, right? Spending all your time getting paid for projects that make you happy and working with people who are passionate about the same things as you. But after a few months or years, you may find yourself grinding away, focusing so much on the day-to-day biz stuff that the passion parts feel all but fizzled out.
You skipped out on the corporate rat race and built something full of creativity and freedom but now…it just feels like you're back at work.
So how do you get those good vibes going again when your passion-fueled biz starts to feel like a regular ole day job?
Try answering these 7 questions to steer yourself back to your purpose and adjust your day to spend more time on things that bring you joy and ditch the things that bring you down.
Who am I helping + how do they benefit from working with me?
This is one of the best ways to re-center your thoughts. Simon Sinek even wrote a whole book on the subject. In my experience, getting back to your WHY and the purpose behind your work can bring back the passion pretty quickly.
Take some time to dig into your ideal client or customer's challenges and how your work helps them find a solution. Understanding this can help you make sure your products and services are truly using the best of your skills to benefit your audience. Even if you're just penning a blog post, there is going to be someone on the other end reading your words – what will you help them do?
And if you're not really sure you're having an impact, I highly suggest getting in the habit of sending a weekly email to your audience. (Yes, even if that's all of 10 people.)
When you are open and honest and show up in people's inboxes with information and insights that hit home with them, they will RESPOND. They will write you emails that will literally make you cry. Maybe sappy/warm/fuzzy tears, maybe happy tears, maybe laughing so hard you cry tears, but trust me – if you get really, really connected to your audience, it will happen. And then your WHY will come look you straight in the eye and remind you why you started this business in the first place.
What is my goal?
But, of course, it doesn't always have to be about other people. It's important to focus on how your work helps you too. Are you imagining penning blog posts from a cafe in Spain? Holding workshops for 500 excited fans? Speaking at a prestigious university? Becoming the cookie queen of Chicago? Or maybe you just want a permanent three-day weekend instead of closing your laptop Sunday night and wondering how you managed to work seven days in a row…again. (Oh yes, I know you've done that!)
You need to have some sort of vision for your future, whether it's next month, next year, or in 10 years (all three would probably be good), so you know why you're taking steps in a specific direction and continuing to grow your business each day.
How do my daily tasks contribute to my endgame?
Think about the tasks that show up on your to-do list on a regular basis. Are those items moving you forward, keeping you stagnant, or pulling you backward? Because all too often we start doing things once a week, every week, without stepping back and evaluating what those tasks really bring to the table.
Could one task be exchanged for another to help you make a bigger impact? For example, instead of putting time into scheduling tons of promotional tweets, could you spend a few hours setting up a couple content upgrades + an automated email sequence for a better converting marketing tool?
Or are you obsessed with Pinterest, while most of your ideal readers, clients, or customers are spending their time on Instagram?
This might mean you need to drop some old habits and learn some new skills in order to level up your business and get more bang for your buck. Passion tends to show up more when you're actually getting a response (emails, subscribers, clients, sales) from all your hard work.
What does my ideal day look like?
This is a question I keep in the back of my mind every single day because working at my corporate job was the exact opposite of how I wanted my life to look. I was stuck in a loud newsroom, in a cubicle that didn't even have walls (it had like 6-inch partitions – wtf is that??), working on projects I didn't have a strong connection to, building boring cookie cutter websites, and adhering to someone else's design standards.
What I wanted instead was to help other people build their own online empires, to be creative and experiment with design, and to make my own schedule so I could come and go as I please. (And eat ice cream in the middle of the day.)
Getting clear about what your entire day, not just your work, looks like can help you adjust so you're more motivated and feeling that passion again. If you want to spend your mornings walking along the beach or sweating it out in a spin class, what needs to change to make that happen?
What can I stop doing?
I guarantee right now there is something you need to stop doing. You've already come this far – don't hesitate to make changes that will make your day more like the one you envision.
This might be a matter of adjusting what you offer in order to add more tasks you enjoy and less that are a drain on your time/body/mind.
For example – when I was selling blog templates, I spent soooo much time responding to convos with information that was already in my listings and shop details. In fact, just writing that sentence triggered a little stab of annoyance in my stomach. This was one of the main reasons I closed the entire shop – I really enjoyed designing templates but was so over answering support emails.
This could also mean hiring someone to take over part of your business that either takes too much of your time because you're not great at it OR you just plain hate it. Graphic making, bookkeeping, researching, editing, packaging. Hiring someone for a couple of hours each week can mean more time for you to do more important tasks or those that you just plain enjoy. And, in my own case, hiring a VA for a few hours each week meant less things to juggle and, therefore, less stress.
What is the thing I least enjoy + how can I change that?
The thing I least enjoy is editing. How did I change that? By hiring a virtual assistant. After spending hours and hours writing blog posts or emails or course lessons, the last thing I want to do is go through and read it all again and cross my fingers I didn't miss a typo. Especially because I have been known to preach about making sure your content is impeccable.
But making a change doesn't always mean hiring someone else to do the work-ish work for you. Maybe you least enjoy holding meetings to pry information out of your clients' brains and you can fix that by adding a step to your process where they fill out a form and then all the information shows up in your inbox automatically.
Maybe you least enjoy coming home after your 9-to-5 and having to do more work on your side hustle, so you set aside Saturdays as your official passion biz work day or start getting up earlier in the morning to check a few things off your to-do list.
Whatever that most work-ish of work tasks is, YOU are in charge, so it's your job to hire it out, make a change, or eliminate it altogether.
What is the thing I most enjoy + how can I do more of that?
Because the things you enjoy are the things that are probably filled with all that passion you've been looking for in the first place.
What do I enjoy most?? Digging into other people's online presence and helping them make it better. And in order to add more of this type of work into my life, I created an entire course that allows me to do this on a regular basis.
Once you've gotten rid of a few of the tasks you least enjoy, you'll have more room in your days to spend time on things that make you feel the passion for your business again.
And, of course, once you've answered these questions, your final move is to make changes to help you do less of the things that are a drag on your mood and your time and more of what makes you feel good, recharges your batteries, and brings the passion + your WHY back to the game.

If your little one cannot get enough of wild animals then you may be on your way to planning a zoo themed celebration for their birthday. However, while this may sound like an amazing idea at first because it is out of the ordinary and unlike the traditional celebrations that other parents may plan for their children. When you begin the planning process you may realize how overwhelming this task is because there are several elements that one should consider in order to execute this celebration perfectly. Thus, the following article is going to explore what these steps are in order to assist the readers of this article.
As this celebration is for a child many parents may wish to host it at their home as they may not wish to spend unnecessary amounts of money booking an event hall. While there is nothing wrong with hosting the event at home one should keep in mind that if they have a garden that it is more appropriate for a zoo themed celebration to be held outdoors. Furthermore, hosting the event outdoors would mean that one would to shop for less birthday party supplies Singapore. However, if one does not possess a garden there is nothing preventing them from hosting the event indoors and with some creative decoration one can strive to create a zoo themed environment inside their own house without breaking a bank.
Once the date is decided all the guests should be handed over cards prior to the date of the event Furthermore, as this is a themed celebration one should keep the theme in mind when planning this card.
Food & Drinks
As this is a birthday party for children one is not required to spend significant amounts of money on an elaborate menu or food options. Instead, as the children are likely to be running around playing one should opt for finger food as this would be easier for these young children to consume without sitting down. Furthermore, it is expected for the cake to depict the zoo theme in great details which means that it should contain several animals instead of one animal. Moreover, when considering the menu it should again reflect the theme thus this means that one should opt to purchase animal crackers. Furthermore, one can also arrange several food items to appear as animals. For instance, one can place several sour belts in a manner which would reflect snakes.
Planning a celebration for young children can always be thing that may overwhelm many children but by following the aforementioned guide one can easily streamline the planning process.

How To Stop Arguments With Your Partner Before They Start
You'll hear me say it over and over again. Healthy relationships are healthy not due to the absence of conflict but because both parties in the relationship have mastered the art of resolving conflict. So why does it feel like the El Classico between Real Madrid and Barcelona in your relationship, every time you and your partner can't agree on something? What are some of the things you can do to prevent disagreements from escalating? Here are some tips that work almost every time!
On your marks, get set… STOP!!!
In my article on how to stop your spouse from criticizing you I talked about the difference between criticism and a complaint. To eliminate conflict from disagreements you have with your spouse, you have to remove criticism from your conversations. For more on how to do this you can download this free audio series where I give you examples of how to modify your speech to sound less critical to your spouse. When you disagree with your partner, the way you start the conversation will determine what sort of compromise you can arrive at. Starting conversations with criticism will always cause your interactions to go downhill fast! If you start all your interactions with your partner with criticism, they will always get defensive, meaning they will also withdraw from you. This will eventually lead to emotional distance and loneliness. So you must learn to STOP, modify what you want to say from personal attack on your partner's character to expressing how the situation makes YOU feel.
Are you Ronaldo, Ramos or Alonso?
So my husband is a huge soccer fan and one of his favorite teams is Real Madrid. I always find it amusing listening to him analyze their style of play, especially when they are losing. His favorite player on the team is Ronaldo and he tells me Ronaldo is one of the best attacking midfielders of all time. However, he also keeps complaining about a defender named Ramos who spends all his time out of position because he is always attacking. Being that I'm not an avid football fan (sorry guys!) I asked if there were any players who don't attack or defend and he tells me there's a midfield player he likes names Xabi Alonso. Ok so despite his explanations I still don't care too much about football, but I do find this Alonso guy interesting. I realized that in football just like marriage, someone has to be the glue between the part of the team that wants to attack and the part of the team that wants to defend. It might not be the glory position but the team falls apart if that person is missing. In your relationship, that person has to be you!!!
But they think they are Ronaldo!!!
Ok so in an ideal world, everyone in a relationship gets this and wants to play the role of "mid-fielder". But we all know reality is different. We all know that conflict will always occur because we all want to get our own way and when we don't, we react negatively. But the beauty is you can actually eliminate a lot of your conflict even when you disagree on something and at least, one of you is willing to play the "mid-fleld" role. If you have a partner who uses an attack strategy to get their way when they bring up issue, don't go head-to-head with them. Fall in line beside them instead. This can be done by ignoring their tone of voice (which is probably aggressive) and focusing on the content of their message. Ask your partner questions about their point of view and expressing willingness to look at the problem from a new perspective. Regardless of how you feel about an issue they raise, say things like:
"Tell me why this is so important to you."
"I may not be looking at things the same way you do. Tell me how you would like to approach it?"
"What are you concerned about if we handle this issue differently from the way you suggest?"
(Click here to send me specific examples of things between you and your partner that you disagree on that cause conflict and I'll respond with examples of how to modify your speech)
If your partner is always poised for a fight, if your partner is ready to get defensive every time you have a different opinion on an issue, responding without counter-attacking or taking a non-defensive stance, will disarm them. It changes the direction of the energy of the conversation by allowing the both of you to be on the same side of the problem. It is even more likely to lead to a compromise. Nobody loses when you approach things this way. This allows you to both have different points of view, but respect each other's point of view all the same. Using this approach is not easy, but trust me, it's effective!
So what's the game plan coach?
No coach sends their team out into battle without a plan right? So here's your game plan. Draft a list of the conflict you and your partner typically have. Think of ways you can initiate that conversation with your partner, without criticizing them. Think of ways you can let them know you respect their opinion on the issue, while making sure you let them know how you feel about the issue. No finger pointing! Make sure you remain polite, regardless of how they respond to you. Make sure you also show appreciation to them if you get the sense they are listening to you.
If things don't go according to plan and they begin getting defensive, remember, your plan is to get on their side of the argument, so they believe it's the both of you versus the problem. Use phrases like the ones I shared above to change the direction of the conversation.
Coach's pre-game speech
Many people have trouble accepting their partner's ideas, suggestions, or requests because they believe that doing so will cause them to lose power in the relationship. However, research shows the opposite. People who allow themselves to be influenced by their partners actually have more power in their relationships. That's because people who feel empowered and respected in their relationships by their partners are more likely to go along with their partner's ideas and suggestions as well.
In relationships you become more powerful by sharing your power with your spouse. You can teach your partner this important lesson, by choosing to play the "mid-field" role, when your partner wants to "attack" or "defend". You can open your partner up to your influence by choosing to respond to them in a way that makes them feel you are on their side. Why not try something different on the next disagreement you both have?
Good luck!

Jodriann regularly attends our weekly teen therapy group. He agreed to share with our blog by answering a few questions about being a teen who stutters. Jodriann is no stranger to the AIS Blog. In 2009, he gave a speech at the AIS gala and was kind enough to share his feelings about the speech both before and after the event. In 2010, he talked about how he and the other kids in an AIS therapy group were keeping track of their speech skills.
In general, what is it like to be a teenager who stutters?
I've been going to speech classes ever since I was 8 years old. Now that am 16 years old and in high school, I've experienced and learned a lot about my stuttering. Even though I stutter, I still deal with normal teenage problems. Like talking to new people, girls, and teachers. I used to be a really shy person. I wanted to talk, but I was always afraid of stuttering. I used to make my friends talk for me. Back then, I didn't really mind it, but now I want to be more independent and speak for myself.
What have you learned about managing your stuttering?
I've gained a lot of confidence after learning new tools/techniques from AIS. One of the first tools I felt really comfortable using was called, "freeze and fix it." It helped me to feel more comfortable talking to people knowing I could control my stuttering. I used to have really bad blocks and now with this technique my blocks are more controlled even in tight situations. Soon I learned "pull-outs" my favorite of all tools because it sounds natural and is easy to use. With this tool I've learned to talk to new people and I'm more confident that I can control my stuttering. I felt really happy using pull outs.
Tell me more about your confidence with speaking.
I've gained so much confidence that I can talk to girls and teachers with confidence and am not as shy or scared anymore. As a teenager who stutters, life can be difficult, it will be a challenge. But there are no challenges that are impossible. And I am living proof that it can be done. All thanks to the techniques and tools I've learned here at AIS.

I say: Uses regular expressions to search and replace multiple strings in text files. Highly configurable, with excellent log, backup and batch controls. Doesn't redate your files (unless you want it to) so is very useful for making changes in every page of a web site, without all the pages ending up as modified on the same date. Unfortunately strings including line endings require the regular expression mode, so while undeniable more powerful it is sometimes not as convenient as Multi-Replace.
They say: "Welcome to the wonderful world of ReplaceEm, your premiere-quality, freeware string-replacing utility for Windows. At its core, ReplaceEm is essentially a text search-and-replace program. However, unlike the search-replace functionality of a standard text editor, ReplaceEm is designed to operate on multiple files at once. And you need not only perform one search-replace operation per file -- you can setup a list of operations to perform. If different groups of files need to have different operations performed on them, this is no problem either. You can also specify a backup file for each file processed just incase the replace operation didnt do exactly what you wanted.
When specifying which files to be included in a particular replace operation, you can add one file at a time, or you can tell ReplaceEm to use all the files from a particular folder -- or the files from that folder that match a given file filter (such as *.txt or *.html). You can even specify to include all files that don't match a particular filter. Additionally, you can decide to include the files from all subfolders of that folder.
One very powerful feature of ReplaceEm is that you can specify that the destination of the altered file be some other location than where it originally came from. This is handy, for instance, if you want to have some search-replace operations performed on a particular file and have it saved to a destination file, and then want to have different search-replace operations performed on the same file, and have it saved to a different location.
Another powerful ability of ReplaceEm is to make use of regular expression search-replace operations, as well as range search-replace operations. These are, in fact, so powerful and complex that most users will probably not need to mess around with them. They are, however, vital in certain situations, and turn ReplaceEm into a much more intelligent text processor.
When the replace operations are performed, a log file is generated to let you know if everything went ok; Information about which files were processed, where they were saved to, where they were backed up to, and how many replace operations were performed on them are provided. "

For help... Please don't contact ME for help using any program. I only recommend it, I don't (and can't) offer a free support service for every program I recommend.
What you can do for yourself is...if you have any problems with anything I've recommended, contact the author of the program, or Google it.
Re: broken links... Links change. I have stated above the date on which I last checked the links. When I next update this section I'll check all the links again. So please don't contact me if the links don't work - I'll find out eventually.
What you can do for yourself is... if the links I give are broken, try searching for the program using Google or FileMirrors - that's what I'd do!
Re: it's not freeware! All of the programs I recommend in this section are 'free' in the sense that they were at one time distributed as fully functional software with no payment required for their continued use. However... some software companies withdraw their freeware, or offer programs as freeware for a short period before 'upgrading' them to shareware. So please don't contact ME to say any program I recommend is no longer freeware. I'll find out when I next update.
What you can do for yourself is... search the net... As I understand it, if you can find the original freeware distribution, and it still works, there's nothing to prevent you from legitimately using it. You could try the Last Freeware Version or OldVersion.com.

India's largest paper maker Ballarpur Industries Ltd is targetting to raise roughly $300-400 million through an initial public offering of its Netherlands-based unit on the London Stock Exchange, its finance chief said on Monday.
"We have an in-principle clearance," B. Hariharan, group director (finance), told Reuters over the phone on Monday, adding the company was aiming to list in the middle of April.
At present, Ballarpur holds 79.53% in the Netherlands-based unit, while the rest is being held by two private equity investors.
Ballarpur Industries will use the proceeds "partly for pulp (capacity) expansion which we are doing and partly for deleveraging", Hariharan said.
After the IPO, the company plans to cut by 6 billion rupees its current debt of about 30 billion rupees, Hariharan said.
Of the 15 billion rupees Ballarpur Industries has earmarked for pulp capacity expansion in India and Malaysia, the balance 6 billion rupees will be spent in 2011.
Earlier in the day, Ballarpur Industries reported a 10% rise in consolidated profit to 589 million rupees in Oct-Dec on expanded capacity. Sales rose 28% to 11.26 billion rupees.
The quarterly margins shrank 300 bps to 20% from a year ago as expensive pulp purchased in the first half of the fiscal partly kept the cost high in the Decemeber-quarter even though the pulp pices are softening now, Hariharan said.
The margins are expected to expand by 100 bps in Jan-March quarter to 21% as pulp prices have softened and paper prices are expected to go up, Hariharan said.
"The market is good, so there might be a possibility of increase in (paper) prices by another 1,000 rupees a tonne," Hariharan said, adding he expected pulp prices to remain stable.
With new pulp capacity in Malaysia and India coming on stream by mid-2011 and early-2012, respectively, the company will become fully integrated and margins will go up to 25-26% next year, he said.
The company buys about 40 percent of its total pulp requirement at present.
Ahead of the earnings announcement, shares in Ballarpur Industries, valued at about $470 million, closed 3.82% lower at 31.45 rupees in Mumbai market that closed 0.37% down.

In some cases, a credit or debit card for an account with sufficient funds can still be declined by your card provider. This most commonly occurs as a security measure by your bank or credit union, who notices that Juicer is processing a monthly or yearly payment.
In these situations, you can either try another card, or alert your current card provider that Juicer is a safe vendor and that you approve future transactions.
If you'd like to know the specific error the bank is returning to Juicer, please contact us via Intercom or [email protected] Please note that Juicer cannot "force" through a payment when this occurs, as your card provider is declining the transaction, although we can try again manually for you.

Volunteer of the Week
As we near the 20th Anniversary of the Victoria Dragon Boat Festival we are taking time to reflect upon one of the most important aspects of our festival – the people. Without the thousands of volunteers, paddlers, and spectators that come year after year to our event, it wouldn't be possible. Each year up to 500 volunteers are recruited for the weekend event, averaging 5000 hours throughout the weekend. The whole community comes together to help out and make a difference in support of the festival and our Charity Partner, the BC Cancer Foundation.
The diversity of our volunteers is beyond comprehension, which is why our festival has become such a well-loved community event. It brings people together in an environment where volunteers value each other, because, like clockwork, the function of every piece is essential to the other and to the whole. It's the passion for volunteering and service to the community that our volunteers share, and that becomes the ground for the many friendships that are built over the festival weekend. Just as volunteers build connections with each other, many have also built a strong connection to the festival, seeking out more ways to get involved.
In appreciation of these people who have given numerous hours throughout the festival weekend and throughout the year in preparation, we will be doing a small "Volunteer of the Week" feature on some of our key volunteers.
Week 4: Rick Armour, Festival Official for Announcers
Rick Armour exemplifies how personal connections and a few simple words can change one's life. As volunteer recruitment goes, each year a large number of volunteers are recruited through personal connections and simply asking people you know to help out. With his history as a community coordinator for Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock, Sooke's Canada Day Celebrations, and a long list of public speaking and MC experience, Rick was a star candidate as a go-to when the festival was in search of announcers. The next year Rick stepped up when asked to become the official in charge of the newly created position of Key Official for Announcing. In the past three years he has kept the festival running smoothly, keeping spectators informed, and making sponsors more than happy. The creation of the announcer's binder is an incredibly tedious process, but as one that is absolutely essential to the festival, Rick ensures it is done right.
Having been involved in many events, Rick has seen ranging levels of organization and believes he steps taken by the Victoria Dragon Boat Festival Society over the years towards developing the Festival Organizer committee and it's direct involvement in the planning of the festival has been one of the biggest accomplishments he's seen.
Week 5: Loreli Urquhart, Festival Official for Beer Garden, Chair of Festival Official Committee
Loreli has been with the festival as a volunteer since 2010.
Tony Joe, a board member and friend who knew she was a paddler and loved festivals, invited Loreli to come to an Organizing Committee Meeting, where she learned that a volunteer position was open to be the Key Official for the Beer Garden. Although she had every intention of NOT volunteering for a key position . . . when that one was announced, she couldn't help but jump. As a paddler, she had been to many festivals over the years and saw the Beer Garden as one of THE most important aspects of a successful festival and Victoria was known to not always have very good beer gardens. She knew, with the right management and know how, we could. She went home and told her husband Ron that she was the Beer Garden Chair and he just smiled, knowing that was a job she would not only be good at, but also be passionate about.
Glenys, the now General Manager, was also brought in at that meeting to see if she would volunteer as well. Both of them were there to see how we could help make this fabulous Festival greater – and both of them walked away with very key official jobs!
In the past, before her involvement in the organizing/volunteering part, she was a paddler who loved festivals, who loved to fully involve herself as a paddler, with her crew, in the racing and the partaking of all fun stuff!
Since volunteering, Loreli has been working with the office to help change around the beer garden, working with the entertainment committee to seek out a great line up of music on the main stage, changing up how the beer garden was to be set up, having a system that made sure product was cold and served quickly, making it clean and feel like a place you want to relax and have fun. She knew the festival needed a more upscale, but still comfortable, Beer Garden since restaurants and pubs surrounded and with experience as a paddler, she knew many teams just walked up the street to eat and drink. She wanted to give them a choice – stay in the Village, be comfortable, and have fun.
Last year (2013) she was asked to take on the new role of Festival Committee Chair. In this committee, they brought together all the volunteers who work tirelessly and all weekend long (and many hours before) during the Festival. By bringing these passionate people together, they were all able to learn more about other aspects of the Festival and ultimately be able to help out in other areas when needed. Understanding how everything comes together helps all the volunteer festival officials work together more efficiently and that makes the festival as a whole work better, giving everyone involved and those enjoying as spectators and paddlers, a better time.
One of the biggest accomplishments of the Victoria Festival is their Beer Garden (we even get tourists in our Beer Garden) and the Paddler's Experience while participating. The festival does so many things to ensure the paddlers have a good time from running races efficiently to the Air Band Contest to the Beer Garden to the handing out of bling on Sunday to celebrating all weekend long!
In reflection, Loreli comments that they couldn't have accomplished the big change in the success of the Beer Garden without the help and understanding of what I was trying to do from the office and the Board of Directors. So for all of those people, she is truly grateful!
When walking through the site, things appear more organized, clean and professional. As a clear measure of success, it's a place that would put on my list of things to do! There is something there for everyone! So, we have accomplished the ability to host to anyone and everyone.
Loreli continues her involvement and enthusiasm for the festival, knowing there is always tweaking and improvement still to be done, and regardless of the hard work, she absolutely "LOVES being part of something so spectacular!" Secretly, she enjoys teaching spectators and tourists the difference between paddling and rowing and giving them some insight into the sport. This year Loreli will be taking her drumming skills to Italy for the World Club Crew Championships with the Gorging Dragons Team, she wants to educate people into how one can just have fun or go all the way in this sport and that there is something for everyone!
We do have one of the best venues to watch dragon boat racing. We are one of only 2 in the world where we host racing in a working Inner Harbour. Lastly, she remarks that she is "extremely proud to be a part of this event!"
Week 2: Doug Smith – Festival Official, Event Safety
Doug Smith and his wife Susan are both veteran volunteers, entering their 8th year with our festival in 2014 on our 20th Anniversary year. After retiring in 2005, Susan and Doug planned to spend time working with worthy causes in their community, and it was through Doug's cousin, Kathy Cropp, another long-time volunteer, that they were introduced to the Victoria Dragon Boat Festival in 2007.
Since day one Doug has been volunteering on the same crew – Event Safety, which previously started out as "security". As a retired police officer, this was right up his alley, and goes to show that volunteers with unique skill sets and experiences compliment every volunteer position in the festival. Starting first as a volunteer, Doug followed by serving as the Assistant Festival Official the following three years, and has now been the Festival Official of Event Safety for the past four years, spending many hours outside of the festival weekend year round to ensure that everyone is safe and that any emergency situations, should they arise, are dealt with appropriately.
The safety of everyone at the event is important to people like Doug and Susan, who regard many of the festival staff and fellow volunteers as family, and are dedicated to ensuring the well being of everyone on site, paddlers, volunteers, and spectators included. Just as much as they look forward to every returning volunteer and continuing their relationships with them, Doug and Susan welcome new volunteers with open arms and value new interactions with the general public in a unique and positive way through the festival, with the added bonus of the whole festival being a way for people to raise awareness and donations for a very worthy cause.
Week 1: Mathew Yee – Festival Official, Equipment Crew
Starting first as an avid paddler, Festival Official Mathew Yee began volunteering for the Victoria Dragon Boat Festival in 2012 to maintain his connection to the dragon boating community that grew around him throughout his many times participating in festivals. Although starting as a general festival volunteer, Mathew's spirit and enthusiasm caught the eye of one of the festival's organizing committees and he was asked to return the next year as a committee member. Mathew now runs the Equipment Crew with Kyle Chow, another enthusiastic paddler and volunteer, and together they ensure that all of the areas of the festival have what they need to function – it's a stressful job, but the festival couldn't have anyone better to fill this task.
Mathew met an incredible amount of people and developing many friendships over his years paddling, and through volunteering he continues to meet more amazing people; it's the fuel that keeps him running. Since his involvement spans across a broad time period and number of roles, his perspective of how the festival has grown in the community takes a similar approach: he sees how more more people become involved over time and that the presence of the festival is now seen as a hallmark summer event in the City of Victoria.
It's for all these reasons we are thankful for what Mathew has done for the festival, and we hope his enthusiasm will continue to spread to all the volunteers he works with each year, and to the rest of the paddling community looking for other ways to become involved.

Study: Happier People Keep Healthier as They Age
Posted By: Dr. Gary Bellman on January 20, 2014
There are many reasons to live a happy life. Among them, according to a new study, is a longer-lasting, more functional body. The study found that older people who enjoy life maintain a
better physical function
later into life.
The findings fall in line with many previous studies that have found that an active, outgoing, and optimistic person is more likely to be happy and healthy into old age. The catch though, may be that happiness has to come from young age first. A July 2013 study, for example, found that people who were more outgoing and emotionally stable during young adulthood were more likely to carry those traits as they aged. This in turn could affect physical well-being, as evidenced by the current study.
The current study looked followed 3,199 men and women over 8 years. The participants were split into three age groups (60-69, 70-79, and 80 and over), and asked to assess their enjoyment of life on a four-point scale. Specifically, they were asked to rate their happiness based on the following statements: "I enjoy the things that I do," "I enjoy being in the company of others," "On balance, I look back on my life with a sense of happiness," and "I feel full of energy these days."
Their answers were compared to interviews in which the participants reported on how well they carried out daily tasks, such as getting dressed, getting in and out of bed, and bathing. Their walking speed was also determined with a gait test. Overall, the researchers found that happiness correlated to better physical function. Unsurprisingly, they also found that participants in the youngest age group were most likely to report and exhibit well-being. Besides them, participants with higher socioeconomic status, an education, and who were married were also better able to function.

- - Should I replace this thru-hull?? (https://www.sailnet.com/forums/gear-maintenance/53401-should-i-replace-thru-hull.html)
Should I replace this thru-hull??
1 Attachment(s)
I was planning on replacing some of my thru-hulls, wasn't going to do this one originally but now I'm wondering if it too should be replaced? It looks ok to me on the inside but the outside looks scary ... never done this before so I don't know what is normal. Thanks.
Is it rough because of pitting or is it from the paint? But if the others are bad and this is the same age I would do them all.
It does seem to have been painted (are these bronze thru-hulls supposed to be painted?) but I don't know what the metal is like under the paint.
Remove the paint and get the through-hull nice and shiny, and if you see spots that are pinkish compared to the rest, it has started to dezincify, and needs to be replaced. If that is the case, then you should replace all of the through-hulls as likely they're much the same age and probably in pretty similar condition. Here is a photo by Maine Sail that clearly shows the difference....
Great answer and a great picture.
Thanks... glad to help... but gotta give Maine Sail the cred for the photo... :) swiped it from his projects site. :)

More than once recently, I have come across someone that has said to me, they don't like to, or never have bought anything online... let alone Vintage or Preloved!, simply for the fear of not getting it right. So here are a few tips, that may help make it less of a big deal.Check the returns policy:Most vintage/pre-loved stores do not allow returns. This is simply because we can not tell if you wore it to last nights girls night out... for all we know you wore it out, washed it and then asked to return it... not cool.Of course you are within your rights to ask to return an item if it is not what was described or is in unwearable condition. However you will not be able to return a garment if its the wrong size... so read on...
Know your size:This is actually what puts people off the most. If you want to get online shopping right, then I would suggest taking 5 minutes right now to grab just four items of clothing to measure up. Choose items that fit you well and you wear a lot.A top or t-shirt, dress, a pair of Jeans or pants, and a good fitting jacket
Write the following measurements down on a post-it note and stick it to your computer! - You only need to do this once! Lie the item flat on the floor and measure up...Pic cred: Pinterest... Slightly different to what I am suggesting below but you get the idea.
TOP/T-SHIRT- Bust, underarm to underarm:- Length, shoulder to hem:DRESS (can use bottom of dress measurements for a skirt)- Bust, underarm to underarm:- Waist, smallest part:- Hips, widest part:- Length, or a length you like:JEANS/PANTS- Waist, straight across the top:- Rise, from waist to crotch, (where all seams meet):- Length of inside leg:JACKET- Bust, underarm to underarm:- Waist, smallest part:- Across the top of the shoulders at the back:- Length, shoulder to hem:Once you have your measurements you will find sizing something up online an absolute breeze! If a shirt measures 50 cm across and your bust measurement on your favourite shirt is 45 cm - win! You know it will fit with a little room!
Be aware that vintage sizing is quite different to New Zealand sizing today... a size 12 in 1950 was actually more like an 8, similar to USA sizing compared to ours... So checking measurements is an actual must.
Have a look at the size chart for Walter Alice Store here
Ask for measurements or more photos:If a seller doesn't list the measurements, or doesn't provide enough information for you to make a decision, just ask them, it's really not a problem, as it helps the seller get a sale, and also it is less likely to result in a problem for them if the garment doesn't fit you.As a seller, I love it when someone contacts me for more information, it gives me an opportunity to provide the best customer experience and more than often results in a great transaction for both of us.Make sure you ask what the condition is, and if there is any damage especially if it isn't already mentioned.Save your favourite sellers:If you purchase something on Trademe and it was a perfect fit, its quite likely they will list again, save them as a favourite seller and you will be notified when they put something else up for sale. Also make sure you check their feedback!Walter Alice's Trademe Store link is here: https://www.walteralice.com/collections/sale (just saying).Don't think about it too much:Chances are with Vintage, as it is probably a one off item it will sell while you are procrastinating. If in doubt leave it out... If you can't live without splash out.Know your classics:Blazers, jeans, white shirts, pencil skirts... Things that don't really go out of fashion.If you are new to Vintage its a good idea to find something timeless or classic to begin with. Maybe a cardi or a black dress, a blazer or a simple blouse. Make it something you can wear on a weekly basis, not a special occasion item.Why buy Vintage instead of New?:Good quality Vintage can cost as much if not more than new clothing... This is due to the fact it is simply better made and is highly durable (it's lasted this long remember!).Also you will not see the same item on anyone at any event!Don't expect the item to look the same on you as it did on the model:This picture says it all, I do it, stylists do it, models too need to be pinned and tucked for an item to look good... just use the look books and pictures of the item on a model as ideas for styling... that's all. Hopefully the website has pictures of the item simply hanging on a hanger as well so you see it in a few different ways.

Get a prepaid debit card:If you don't like shopping online simply because you don't trust the "interweb" then you may not be aware that most online stores in New Zealand will allow you to pay by Internet Banking, no problem at all. Or get yourself a prepaid prezzy card and top it up when you want to shop, this way you aren't using your actual credit card number. This is a bit extreme though as getting an account with Paypal or paying by credit card on trustworthy sites is actually very safe. And I would only be more cautious if your whole life savings is on your credit card account (silly silly silly)...This leads to the next thing...Only buy from trusted websites:Even Trademe has its risks as there are untrustworthy people out there (again - check the feedback), however buying from a local online store, like www.walteralice.com (of course) is the best way to go. You can see they are authentic, they are local and you can even call them on a real phone number if there is a problem. If there is no phone number I would look at other ways you can contact them to check tracking or to chase up if an item doesn't arrive.A good way to check out the store is to look at their facebook page and their customer interactions (or lack thereof), also check the reviews, this is a tell tale sign if a website is dodgy or not.You can always get your money back though if you have an account with Paypal - they are really good like that, especially if you get a bad deal.If you stick to my guide, you won't miss out on that sense of excitement that us preloved clothing online buyers get when a new parcel arrives (it seriously is like Christmas)... go on just try it!It will change your life!

My profound apologies for writing in English. I can read a little French. (Un petit) I have better Latin!!
While researching the family of Hauvell, I came across this:
Louise-Marie-Mathilde-Aline du HAUVEL, Countess married on April 4, 1889 Pierre de CHABANNES LA PALICE, Marquis de Chabannes la Palice (1862-1934) and issued (Marie-Antoinette, Antoine-Jacques-Marie, and Ebles)
I am descended from the ancient family of Hautville, Hauville which came established in Norfolk, England in about 1160. They originated from Three brothers, who came with Henry II from Coutances. From my own research I discovered that members of the family had lands both in Normandy and England, a direct ancestor William de Hauville, knight and falconer to the king had lands near Preaux near Rouen and two other estates (knight's fees) in the area.
Hauvelles, Hauvilles and Havilles continued to be active members of the French nobility after they established themselves in England. Three Havilles are listed as Ecuyer in the French forces at Azincourt.
I suspect that the Hauvel's, from Calvados, could be connected with this ancient family. They were also as an ancient noble family of Normandy, and fitted the same profile, ecuyer, as mine.
The Hauvels are listed amongst the nobles who took refuge in London during the revolution. I think Countess Louise' father or grandfather was born there. ( English by birth?)
I think the Countess Louise du Hauvel was the last of her line and the title became absorbed into that of the family Chabannes La Palice. It would be nice to have an ancient connection between the Chabannes and the Hauvilles/Havells. Recently I discovered that the last known house of the Hauvel's the Chateau du Pin, near Moyanx, still exists and is presently owned by Rebecca and John Whitehead who run a small tourist accommodation business. The Chateau du Pin was also held by the Chabannes family at one time.

text: Recently, the number of production sites with humans and robots working together is increasing. As robots are inherent sources of danger, there is an obligation to thoroughly carry out risk assessment and implement appropriate measures to protect humans who are working in the same area. When adding a robot to a working environment, it is important to carry out risk assessment from the equipment construction phase and implement safety measures. For each process and safety assurance measure, competent production technology design engineers are placed in charge of developing human-robot collaboration work sites. However, this does not reduce the possibility of an accident occurring to zero. Many of these production design engineers have the opinion that they would like to involve third party risk assessment in order to improve safety as much as possible.

I love ketchup. Even if I don't know the correct spelling whether it be Heinz's spelling of "catsup" or Del Monte's "ketchup" and even others spelled "kechup", I still love it.
I do love the original tomato ketchup, the sour kind. I love garnishing french fries, meat, pizza, fish and just about anything with kechup.
For me, ketchup is made from tomato and nothing else. So I don't like banana ketchups like Jufran and UFC. One exception is when I eat at Max's Chicken. They don't serve any tomato ketchup. Surprisingly enough, banana ketchup is a good mix with their chicken.
So seeing this new ketchup product had my eyebrows raised and mouth wide open in astonishment.
My sole reaction was...
I hope they don't come out with pineapple, melon or guava ketchups.
I just don't dig fruit-flavored ketchups. Wait a minute. Is tomato a fruit ?
