Holiday company launches life-saving partnership
PUBLISHED: 09:23 27 March 2018 | UPDATED: 09:23 27 March 2018
A new partnership is hoping to help save lives at sea.

Today, buzzing artist, songwriter, and producer MOKITA releases his new single "Goodbye" [feat. Maty Noyes] via Casablanca Records.
Of the track, he comments, "I've been obsessed with Third Eye Blind ever since I was a little kid. The reason 'Semi-Charmed Life' stuck out to me was because of the dark lyrical content and the happy upbeat production on the original. I thought it would be cool to somehow flip it, make it relationally based, and darken it up a little on the production side. Once we got Maty's voice on it, it just added another layer of depth that was so perfect for the song."
Maty adds, "Excited to have worked with Mokita and be a part of "Goodbye" which gives a nod to a classic song that has been an anthem to us all at one point. It was really cool to be able to put our own spin on it almost 20 years later"
American born artist, songwriter, and producer, John-Luke Carter, known professionally as MOKITA, has quickly gained attention for his ability to blend huge pop hooks with zen-like production, certainly playing into the meaning behind his stage name. The word "MOKITA," which derives from a language called Kivila, known to be spoken in Papua New Guinea, translates loosely to "the truth we all know but agree not to talk about." Since starting the project in 2016, MOKITA became recognized for his debut single, Monopoly, which was a collaboration with vocalist, CADE. Within only a few months, Monopoly surpassed 10 million streams on Spotify. The follow-up release titled, Heaven, further exemplified MOKITA's talent as a triple-threat musical creator as it was written, produced, and sung by MOKITA. Since, MOKITA has been commissioned to create remixes for the likes of Cheat Codes, legendary dance artist, Armin Van Burren, and up and comers Betty Who and Taylor Bouno to name a few. His third single, titled Goodbye, is a re-imagination of Third Eye Blind's 90's hit single, Semi-Charmed Life and was created as a duet featuring rising pop icon, Maty Noyes.
With a blockbuster voice, sexy je ne sais quoi, and charisma for days, Maty Noyes flips pop music upside down.
Originally hailing from Corinth, Mississippi and currently based in Los Angeles, her voice has driven smashes across the spectrum of genres. She made a buzzworthy introduction as the featured vocalist on "Angel"—the closing track from The Weeknd's GRAMMY® Award-winning, chart-dominating triple-platinum epic Beauty Behind The Madness. On the heels of that success, she wrote and featured on Kygo's RIAA gold-certified international smash single "Stay," which reached #1 on Billboard's Dance Airplays Chart, #2 on the iTunes US Dance Chart, and #8 on Spotify's Global Top 50 Chart with over 411M streams to date. She also joined Kygo's SOLD OUT tour in addition to delivering key performances at the 2015 VH1 Live In The Vineyard showcase and the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert.
2016 saw Noyes premiere her debut single "In My Mind" via FADER. The song quickly became a Spotify mainstay and has amassed almost 99 million streams. As her NOYES Complaint debut EP earned critical acclaim, she dove headfirst into assembling her forthcoming full-length debut with GRAMMY® Award-nominated songwriter and composer Stephan Moccio (The Weeknd, Miley Cyrus and Celine Dion). She kicked off 2017 with a brand new banger entitled "London," setting the stage for more music to come. New York Times described its follow-up "Say It To My Face" as "A calm, mature, post-electronic-dance-music anthem."

This is so accurate…
"Women are not required to do anything because you like it. We do not have to be submissive. We don't have to be "natural" or wear makeup for you. We don't have to dress "revealing" or "conservative" for you. We do not have to lose weight or gain weight for you. We do not have to dumb ourselves down or be quiet because it makes you feel more confident. Women do not exist to make men happy. "
(If this offends you, it's probably because you are guilty of these beliefs. Get over yourself and do better.)
Women are not here for your satisfaction, to make you feel like a "man", or to turn you on. We should be able to reject a man without fearing for our lives. Stop invalidating our feelings by calling us crazy, bitchy, emotional, and overdramatic. Our emotions are just as valid as yours.
Women are allowed to call you out when you're wrong .
We are allowed to not accept your apology.
We are allowed to break up with you.
We are allowed to not want your attention.
We are allowed to say no.
We are allowed to not smile at you or accept your "compliments".
We are allowed to not want to be around you.
We are allowed to only want to be friends.
One of my friends always makes me…

Against a backdrop of pub closures – the latest CAMRA stats are 18 per week – the six year story of a local community coming together to purchase its pub is certainly heartwarming.
The pub, The Packhorse Inn, has a truly exceptional history. It has stood in the town of South Stoke in Somerset since the 15th century, with the current building erected in 1674, according to a stone above the door. It was even used to hide Catholic monks during the Reformation.
But it closed its doors in 2012 when the Grade II listed building was sold by Punch Taverns to property developers.
The local community was so devastated by the loss that it vowed to make it an asset of community value, buy it off the developers, and turn it back into a pub.
It has been a long journey, and the pub was first listed as an Asset of Community Value in February 2013. This weekend though a 87-year-old, Brian Perkins, poured the first pint at the Packhorse for six years. Brian was born in the pub and had his wedding reception there too - his family used to run the local.
The community raised a phenomenal £1,025,000 from 470 investors following a 2016 'Save The Packhorse' campaign – some paid as little as £50 each for a share in the pub.
Additionally, residents assisted with the refurbishment of the Packhorse in any way they could, from providing legal advice to craftspeople assisting with internal and external work.
The clean-up operation to get the pub back in business was itself an incredible achievement. Residents and volunteers from the village claim they spent around 1,000 hours renovating the pub garden, with 15 tons of earth moved - as well as 25 skips of waste from inside the pub.
The new landlord of the Inn, James Dixon, said that 'more should be done' to protect pubs such as the Packhorse from being purchased by developers.
He said it was a 'pub born from love' and was a 'fine example of what happens when a pub is adored' and is a central part of the community.

This is my favorite recipe for crockpot turkey meatballs. Incredibly tender, packed with flavor and the best part: the crockpot does most of the work!
Hey hey hey! I'm so glad to see you Monday.
Complete sarcasm, of course.
With all the craziness that happens during the week, friends often ask what I eat on the regular. Good question. It really varies each week. I don't cook every night, but I try to plan out meals that are simple or cook in bulk. Between working full time, running this blog and making the gym a priority, some days I feel like I don't have enough hours in the day.
These crockpot turkey meatballs are one of my favorite meals. In fact, over the weekend we had the option of getting BBQ but Chris opted for these instead.
This is my good ole, fill-you-up meatball recipe without having to do much work. That's the perk of the crockpot.
Typically I'll make a big batch on Sunday so we can eat it during the week, or I can bring for lunch. Think about it: meatballs piled high on spaghetti on Sundays, subs with provolone cheese, a couple meatballs paired with a salad, or the meatballs by themselves. Am I weird that I love them by themselves the best…?
To keep these on the healthier side, I use 93% lean ground turkey. Don't worry, these are still incredibly tender and packed with flavor. When working with lean ground turkey, I only use enough binder to do it's job. For flavor, we're talking about parmesan cheese, spices, and garlic. Also, the grated onions: don't leave it out. It's incredible what grated onion will do to a meatball.
Once you work all the ingredients together, you must sear the meatballs. This step can't be skipped. Searing helps hold the juices in, and helps the meatballs stay together while slow cooking.
The sauce: so simple. All you need is canned crushed tomatoes and a little salt and pepper. Yeaaaaaaah, that's it. The meatballs have so much flavor that nothing else is needed.
These crockpot turkey meatballs will become a family favorite and the answer to a crazy week. They will taste like you were slaving away in the kitchen for hours, but you weren't!

Today is World AIDS Day and that means it is time to check in on how China is faring combating HIV infections across the country, it turns out not so well.
According to the latest numbers, China has about 575,000 people living with HIV/AIDS, a growing proportion of that number is high school and university students, Xinhua reports.
According to Wu Zunyou, director of the National Center for AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Disease Control, most of these new cases involve young men who have unprotected sex with other men.
This is actually a significant change from the past. Before 2009, most HIV infections were not transmitted by sex, but rather through drug use, blood transfusions and a mysterious "unknown" factor that got as high as 17.5%, according to data from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. In fact, from 1985 to 2005, around 30% of China's HIV infections were caused by the country's shady blood trade.
In recent years, the government has been doing an admirable job of cracking down on the illegal blood trade as well as drug use. However, Jing Jun, the director of the Center for Research on Public Health at Tsinghua University adds that they are not doing enough in another crucial area, pointing the finger at China's always abysmal sex education system:
"But the government seems much less effective in controlling the private sphere of ordinary people's lives, as evidenced by the rapid increase of HIV infections via heterosexual and homosexual routes," Jing said. "The government needs to learn how to use soft power through educational means to change people's unsafe sexual behavior."
According to the China CDC, sexual transmission now accounts for more than 92% of all new infections (66% from heterosexual activities and 27% from homosexual activities). Around 8% of men who have sex with men in China are living with HIV/AIDS,
This has meant a dramatic shift in HIV cases from the countryside to the city, from the farmers to China's urban elite. According to China Daily, more than 3,400 cases of HIV have been reported among students this year, up from 779 in 2008.
One researcher went even further into explaining the causes for China's rise in HIV cases among young city dwellers, via The New York Times:
Another risk factor, Mr. Chen said, is the common practice in China of gay men marrying women to avoid social stigma and to produce offspring as a filial gesture toward parents.
"We have no research on this because this is a very sensitive question," Mr. Chen said in an interview. "But it has become a question not to be ignored that some women are getting this from their gay husbands."
Dating apps have also contributed to the rising number of sexually transmitted cases among gay men, Mr. Chen said.
"Because of the spread of social networking apps, people have more frequent interactions," he said. "It means that gay men are more closely connected to one another and have more chance to know one another. If they don't use condoms, there will be higher chances for the disease to spread."
In order to help spread awareness, China's First Lady Peng Liyuan attended an event at Beijing's Tsinghua University ahead of World AIDS Day where she unveiled the new slogan that will seen around campuses throughout China: "Getting to Zero."

I have truly been blessed to have pastored at Kettle Creek for the past years. It has been a time of learning, preparation and development in the ways of the Lord. We have come
a long way but there are many miles yet to travel, many souls yet to be saved and many mountains yet to be scaled.
We were challenged by God in our first year, to build a place of worship for All people. His words for us came from Revelations 3:8, "I know thy works, behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it." The truth and depth of these words have exploded in our hearts, as we've earnestly sought His will and the wisdom of God to share His word.
Kettle Creek has become a refuge for the lost, hurting, and discouraged. We've opened the doors of compassion and tried to greet each one with the love and fellowship of Jesus Christ. It's a spiritual truth, that when men and women earnestly seek God's face, they will find Him and as His finger touches their hearts, they will be changed forever. These new creations then become "the CHURCH." that is my desire for Kettle Creek.
We are here to make a difference in the kingdom of Heaven and we will succeed through the grace of Jesus Christ. Someone once said, "The world has yet to see what God can do with anyone who commits himself wholly and without reserve to the kingdom of God and His works." We, as a church, ant to be that united body and work together as we say; "Here's Kettle Creek - use us Lord."
God Bless You,

Whether you're a single college student, in a relationship, or have checked the box, "it's complicated," showing some love to someone—be it your significant other (SO) or yourself—this Valentine's Day doesn't have to break the bank. So, forget about expensive gifts, and instead, go for something more meaningful, and most importantly—free! Here are five ways to treat yourself (or your sweetheart) while saving some cash.
1. No phones for 24 hours
Let's face it—most of us are a bit obsessed with our phones. If you're the type who is tempted to look at your phone, even when your friends or significant other is talking to you, a 24-hour no phone policy speaks volumes (no pun intended)! Giving your loved one your undivided attention for one full day, completely detached from your device, keeps you focused and helps inspire creative ideas. And, if you're flying solo this Valentine's Day, disconnecting from your phone helps refocus your energy on something better than watching your feed fill up with sickly sweet displays. Instead, feed your non-sentimental side with these books about finding yourself. Before you know it, you'll be showered in kisses (or self love) completely forgetting you left your phone back in your dorm room.
2. Serve breakfast in bed
There's an old and wise saying that goes something like this: "the way to [your] heart is through [your] stomach." And, there's simply no better way to show how much you care than to add some love to your recipe. Whether you're a four-star chef, or a kitchen novice, there's no way you can mess up breakfast. From homemade croissants to bakery rip-offs, it's the thought that counts, especially when served with the right amount of love and affection. If you want to get super creative, plate up some heart-shaped eggs or serve up some Valentine's Day inspired biscuits.
3. Make your own Valentine's Day card
Yes, it would be nice to afford expensive gifts to bestow upon your beloved (or friend), but let's face it—as a college student, most of you are living (or barely surviving) on a tight budget. Without that extra cash needed for lavish presents, you must think outside-the-box. One of the easiest (and most thoughtful) gifts you can give your partner or friend is something that comes from the heart. How about a handmade card?
Go the extra mile and include pictures of the two of you, or add concert tickets and movie stubs from events you've shared together. Or, get creative with heart shapes, special messages, and other innovative elements. And, if you need some additional inspiration, head on over to Pinterest. Oh, one more thing: let's not forget about the element of surprise—tuck that card into your loved one's backpack or jacket pocket to win over their heart (and, in some cases, kisses).
Write a love note to yourself…
You certainly don't need a SO to write a love letter. Write one to yourself instead. In this letter, indicate what you love and appreciate about yourself. Who knows, you may find this practice so therapeutic, you'll want to keep it going, especially since studies suggest keeping a gratitude journal leads to better sleep, fewer symptoms of stress-related illnesses, and more happiness. The important thing is to pay attention to what you're grateful for. It could be as simple as recording five things you've experienced in the past week for which your appreciative.
4. Netflix and chill
Haven't seen The Notebook yet? You can bet your bottom dollar it's on Netflix. What better way to snuggle up to your sweetheart than to console one another during this Hollywood tear-jerker. And trust me, you will cry. Not into that? Watch Ozark to prove to your boo just how normal your relationship is in comparison to the one in this bizarre and binge-worthy series. No matter what you watch, it's a great way to work in some lip-locking. That, my friends, doesn't cost a dime!
All singled out? If you've seen enough teddy bears and rose bouquets, and aren't in the mood for cheesy rom-coms, perhaps it's time to celebrate your independence by watching movies that evoke feelings of empowerment, hints of vengeance, or offer up some valuable lessons in friendship—movies like Fried Green Tomatoes, The Help, The Intouchables, or John Wick. Watch 'em alone or with friends, while nestled up to some popcorn and a tub of ice cream. Let Valentine's Day be your cheat day!
5. Go on a day trip
Get on that bike, in that car, on that bus, or in that train, and head out for some adventure. Yes, it may be cold in your neck of the woods, but it doesn't mean you have to be cooped up indoors. Find a beautiful forest to explore, take a stroll through the park, head out for some local sightseeing and window shopping, or recline on a bench, wrapped in a warm blanket while toasting to "romance (or self care) on a budget."
See, love don't cost a thing, or at least it doesn't have to! Remember: the best Valentine's Day gifts come from the heart. No matter how you choose to surprise your sweetheart, or treat yourself, the investment of your time is what counts most, and no amount of money can top that. What awesome (and cheap) Valentine's Day ideas do you have planned? Share them in the comments below.

CTG shutdown
We are in the process of implementing CICS transaction gateway, version 5 on a z/OS 1.3 operating system. From a z/OS computer operator's view, can you suggest the proper way to shutdown the CTG started tasks? Is there a manual that you can recommend that discusses computer operator commands for CTG?
As you are talking about CTG residing on MVS, you will be using EXCI connections into your CICS regions. I'd suggest that you get your operators to use CEMT to shutdown these EXCI connections in the CICS' and once they have all shut, you know that the CTG wil

Ofo users are trying anything to get their deposit money back
Huge lines at their headquarters and letters in English from users desperate for their money
Two years into the bike-sharing boom, Chinese users are now turning their back on one of the industry's stars.
Hundreds of people lined up at Ofo's Beijing headquarters yesterday to ask for their deposits back, Chinese media reported. Users flocked there after one Beijing newspaper reported that people who went straight to Ofo's offices to apply for a refund got their money back.
For months, users said that they haven't been able to get their deposit back from Ofo, as the company ran into financial troubles and extended the wait time for refunds from 3 days to 15 days.
Users of "bike-sharing" apps, which in fact are more like bike rental, have to put a deposit in the app before using a bike. In Ofo's case it's 199 yuan (US$28.84), while Mobike used to charge 299 yuan (US$43.33) before it was acquired by Meituan and dropped the deposits.
"It's not big money, but it makes me mad," one Weibo user said, "It's like having your money stolen."
Lines stretched from Ofo's office on the fifth floor to outside of the building, according to video reports. Queuing users were reportedly equipped with food and water in case of a long wait, and said in videos that they will come back the next day if they don't make it inside. But they don't get their money back on spot either -- Ofo logged their information and promised them that they will receive the refund in three days.
Ofo then posted a statement on Weibo saying that applying for refund at their office is no different from applying online. On Tuesday, Weibo users are also sharing screenshots of the Ofo app, which shows them the online queue for getting refund -- where many are saying that there are more than 9 million people ahead of them. We have not been able to reach an Ofo spokesperson.
With so many people in line for a deposit, users are seizing on any way to get ahead of that enormous queue. One Weibo user claimed that he sent Ofo an email written in English, in the hope of getting some attention. It allegedly worked -- Ofo not only gave back his deposit the next day, they also wrote back an apology letter. The user posted screenshots of both his email and Ofo's response on Weibo, but later deleted them and explained that he didn't want to attract too much attention.
State media blasted Ofo for not being genuine to its users and asked authorities to step in, and people on Weibo were furious. The hashtag "Pretend to be a foreigner and get refund immediately" has been viewed 270 million times on Weibo, where most people are condemning Ofo's double standards.
Ofo was started in 2014 by Dai Wei, a Peking University graduate. He first created Ofo for college students in Peking University, and later expanded it to other universities and eventually cities across China and overseas.
In its heyday in 2017, it raised three rounds of funding in four months and owned over half of China's bike rental market share. Chinese media have reported that in 2017, the company had more money than it could spend, and that its two head executives each owned a Tesla. But it soon ran into trouble as it struggled with a management chaos when competitors flooded the market, according to Chinese media reports.
Ofo's CEO Dai Wei has asked his staff to "fight till the end" and promised that the company will "kneel to survive", but anything is possible. And apparently it's still struggling. Recently, Ofo has tried various ways to make money, including putting video ads in its app and selling honey on its official WeChat account.

Returns/Exchanges and Warranty Information
How do I make a return or exchange?
To start a return please review our return policy and follow one of our easy return links.
What is the warranty on UGG® products?
UGG® provides a manufacturer's limited warranty against defective materials and workmanship for one year from the date of purchase. This warranty only applies to authentic product purchased directly from ugg.com, through our call center (888-432-8530), an authorized retailer or one of our UGG® flagship stores. The warranty does not apply to normal wear and tear or variations in color. For products that contain sheepskin, it should be noted that sheepskin is a natural product and the absorption of color dye may vary slightly within various areas of the material.
How long will it take for my return to be processed?
Please allow up to twelve business days from the date that the package is received to fully process your return. While this is the maximum amount of time allotted, the majority of our returns are processed within five days of being received at our warehouse facility. All packages are processed in the order received and will be processed as requested on the return slip. Please note that we cannot make a change to an exchange/refund that is currently being processed by the warehouse.
Purchasing, shipping, and ordering questions
When will my order ship?
Orders shipped via UPS Air service will process the same business day (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and major holidays) when the order has been received and payment has been verified before 2:00 pm ET (GMT-5).
If the order is received after 2:00 pm ET (GMT-5), shipping via UPS Air service will process the following business day. All UPS packages are delivered on business days only (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and major holidays).
View our shipping rates and transit times.
Where did my order ship from?
All UGG® items are shipped directly to the consumer from our warehouse in California. If you receive a product that has been shipped directly from another country – China, Vietnam etc. – unfortunately you have purchased from a counterfeit site. These sites work extremely hard to duplicate our site making it difficult for you to know you are purchasing from a counterfeiter. The order confirmation may be in very poor English, the quality of counterfeit products is significantly inferior to authentic product and they do not adhere to the same high manufacturing standards that we do, including the use of approved chemicals, etc.
Do you offer price matching?
No, UGG® does not price match with other retailers or website offers. Additionally, we do not adjust pricing of previous purchases to match promotional pricing.
What methods of payment do you accept?
UGG® accepts the following forms of payment:
- Visa
- American Express
- MasterCard
- Paypal
- V.me by Visa
All credit cards are verified with the billing address registered to the card. It is extremely important that you enter all requested information exactly as it appears on your billing statement. "Virtual" credit cards purchased at department stores or via the website may not work if they do not have the ability to store a billing address with the card. This security feature exists for your protection and if the card cannot be validated the order will be cancelled. For this reason, we do not recommend the use of "virtual" credit cards when ordering from UGG®. In the event of a voided order an email will be sent to the associated account notifying of the order cancellation.
Are duties/taxes and brokerage fees only charged on the merchandise?
Duties/taxes and any applicable brokerage fees apply to the entire amount of the order, including shipping and handling fees. UGG® does not set these fees. The government of the designated shipping destination determines duties/taxes and brokerage fees.
Who calculated the duties/taxes and brokerage fees?
The amount that needs to be collected is calculated by UPS (our shipping courier) in accordance with the government regulations for the country that the item is being shipped to. These fees are collected by the courier prior to delivery then submitted to the appropriate agencies by the courier as determined by law.
Can I track the progress of my order?
Provided that a valid email address was entered when placing the order we will email you after the order is placed. The initial email serves as a confirmation of the order details. Once the order has been processed and shipped by our warehouse you will receive a second email containing the shipping tracking number. Please note – the tracking information provided in the email may not be available on the UPS website immediately. If you cannot find a status for your tracking number online, please check back for updated tracking information ten hours after receiving the initial email. If the tracking number still fails to track the package after this duration of time please contact our customer service department at 888-432-8530 so that they can investigate the situation further.
If you have placed an order recently – you may click the link below to log into your account and view your order history.
Can I make changes to an open order?
While we pride ourselves in processing orders quickly and efficiently, unfortunately once your order has been confirmed we can no longer cancel or modify the order. Once you receive your order you can make a return for a full refund and replace the order.
View our returns/exchange policy.
Do you charge sales tax?
Yes. Sales tax will be applied to online purchases made by customers in all states in accordance to state/city/county regulations. Sales tax is charged based on the shipping address of the order. Sales tax will apply to online purchases in the following states - Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Oklahoma, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nevada, D.C., New York, Texas, South Dakota, Vermont, Utah and Pennsylvania.
What will my shipping package look like?
Regular Shipping Package
Package when the item is gift wrapped and non-branded gift wrap is selected (UGG® By You custom orders cannot be gift wrapped)
Product Questions
What if the style, color or size I want is not available?
We make every effort to maintain an ample supply of our stock. If an item is discontinued it will be removed from our website. If we are currently out of stock but are expecting further stock to become available you will find a back order date listed on our website. This is an approximate date that we are expecting the item to arrive in our warehouse and it is not guaranteed. We do have a list of authorized websites where you might be able to find the color or size that you are looking for. In addition, we list authorized retail stores that may have what you're looking for in stock. Please note, retail stores do not carry all lines/styles and colors so it is recommended that you contact the store prior to visiting to determine if they have the color/size you are looking for.
View our authorized website directory.
Find an authorized retailer near you.
What is the best method to clean and protect my UGG® sheepskin?
View our complete list of care and cleaning details.
Where can I sign up to receive the UGG® print catalog?
In an effort to reduce our environmental impact, we no longer produce mass distributed print catalogs. We do, however, produce a seasonal "look book" which features new styles. If you would like to be added to our look book mailing please sign up on our website by creating an account.
The boots that I submitted for a warranty evaluation have been sent back to me. Why?
If your product does not meet the criteria within our warranty policy or is over a year old, we will return it to you with a notification of why it was not accepted. We will also send you an email letting you know when it is on its way back to you.
What currency are your prices listed in?
Our prices are listed in Canadian Dollars ($CAD). If you would like to determine the approximate cost in another currency, we suggest you utilize an online currency converter, which will give you an estimate of the cost. Keep in mind that currency rates fluctuate daily, and your card will not be charged until the order actually ships which could result in a variation in the rate on the day of shipment.
How can I ensure that the UGG® product I purchased is authentic and not counterfeit?
The presence of counterfeit products in the marketplace is an unfortunate reality for many luxury brands including UGG®. Though we aggressively pursue removal of this product through various means, please be aware that there is still counterfeit UGG® product being offered to consumers primarily through online websites, auction sites and trade boards.
If you are viewing UGG® product online anywhere other than ugg.com and the domain name includes "UGG®", or any variation of this word, or includes one of our style names in the domain address, e.g. "Cardy", you can assume the product is counterfeit. If you do not buy UGG® product from ugg.com or one of our authorized retailers listed in the Dealer Locator you should assume you are purchasing counterfeit product. Furthermore, if you are purchasing online and delivery to you is scheduled from anywhere other than the U.S. the product is suspect.
To ensure that you are getting an authentic product you should purchase from one of the following locations:
- ugg.com
- www.ugg.com/ca
- www.ugg.com/uk
- www.ugg.com/eu
- www.ugg.com/fr
- www.ugg.com/nl
- 888-432-8530 – Customer Service Center
- An authorized online retailer
- An authorized retailer (i.e. Nordstroms)
If product is purchased from unauthorized sources we will not accept the product for exchange/refund or warranty replacement. We will also not assist with disputes relating to such purchases. Unfortunately, there are thousands of sites claiming to be authentic product. Please make sure that you check the site on our counterfeit page prior to ordering. View our Counterfeit page with website lookup.
My order arrived in a box shipped from China. Is the product counterfeit?
We do not ship any product directly from China. While we do have overseas manufacturing, all products are shipped to the US where it goes through our quality control process. Our manufacturing facilities are strictly controlled under US labor regulations. Once you have received counterfeit product it is often extremely difficult to obtain a refund. Essentially, because you ordered a product and received a product, you may have a difficult time trying to dispute the charge with your credit card company. UGG® cannot help you with any credit card disputes for counterfeit product.

form•Z 8.6 Update Released
Martin Malinski replied to Tech's topic in form•Z DiscussionV-Ray for form•Z v3.6.6 released? .....is this just a typo? ...the email sent refers to v8.6.6 but update is labeled 8.6.5? Thanks Martin
Martin Malinski reacted to a post in a topic: form•Z 8.6 Update Released
K, I've established the error I reported in earlier posts... If I import .fbx files the textures are mirrored ONLY in renderzone as Justin noted; They are correctly orientated in shade and full shade and also vray. So the error is within the renderzone import settings... I've checked it on multiple files... ALL contain the same display error. I did send the formz and fbx files to tech support; but have received no response other than the receipt of file. I prefer to assume that tech is working on correcting the error in the next update? This does not address the display mismatches in the material editor... but they may be related? Martin.
Justin Thanks...You're right! Thanks for that, it just hadn't occurred to me But still have the issue of some wrong (mismatching) textures displaying in Material Parameters under shaded. I'll send an amended error report to Tech Thanks Justin
Tech Emailed the file and textures thru... Here is the Vray materials parameter ...(didn't previously post as it displays correctly) the issue seems to be a fight between shaded and renderzone? Martin
Tech, Thanks for the response ....The bottom image is Vray (just default product render setting) ....the image above Renderzone. As soon as I can get back on the machine I'll forward you the file.... But this issue is not restricted to this file. +It also happens when Vray is disabled. Martin
But more critical is the difference between renders. Shaded and shaded full render the same... but renderzone renders a mirrored texture.... this is extremely trying if you want to use renderzone within your production line as Vray renders as shaded and shaded full.... On windows 10 ...1080ti
Thanks Updated fine thru' the app update from 184.108.40.206 Unfortunately still some long standing display issues not resolved on materials and shading display. 1. Shaded often shows different icons 2. Switch to renderzone and it shows the correct icon.

Form Z error ID: 128: -35
Martin Malinski replied to Michele's topic in form•Z DiscussionMichele, I had a problem that froze my formZ on the opening window; if I unloaded my vray extension formz worked? I also had other version running without problem. So I assumed it was a open gl or other driver issue. Here was my route... run windows update; check all your drivers and update your graphics card from nvidea...(nvidea are always updating) I updated everything I could think of...finally the graphics card....then everything worked fine... Good luck Martin

Justin Montoya reacted to a post in a topic: obj import issues
Yes it is ... Glad it helped. Martin
If I understand the issue correctly there is an easy fix. On the import dialogue the last checkbox under obj options is 'Invert Transparency' ....check that when required. Martin

Old debate, new deal? Nivida's graphic cards
Martin Malinski replied to jldaureil's topic in form•Z Discussion''On the other hand, the CPU issue is now different. for example an AMD ThreadRipper 1950 X (CPU Mark 22076) at 680 € against a Core i7 8700K (CPU Mark 16009) at 319 € costs only 361 € more ... But is it useful?'' Not really an equal comparison. ....Either is an overkill for formZ modelling. ....the i5 range and AMD (Ryzen 5-7) range are more than adequate for formZ. However; if you are doing heavy Vray rendering and you want to utilise the machine whilst rendering? You cannot beat (price) ThreadRipper 1950 X . Simply because Vray can utilise all the cores available. So for rendering, forget the relative CPU speed advantage of the i7 8700k .... the more cores the better is king! i7 8700k = 6 cores .......Max 64gb RAM ThreadRipper 1950 X = 16 cores .......Max 128gb RAM I run an i5 x6 core with 1080ti x48gb RAM (which can handle anything I can throw at it) ....If I were to upgrade; I'd be looking at a new motherboard & Threadripper.... with threadripper you can handle a much greater amount of RAM and RAM speeds....allows you to render with little impact whilst carrying out other simultaneous tasks.... The machine would not require to be dedicated only too rendering, you could carry on modelling, using photoshop, illustrator et al with negligible slow down to your rendering speeds. My system wishlist. .....Threadripper 1950x .....minimum of 32gb RAM ..@ 3200mhz, .....Motherboard ...x399 ....(min' of 2x m2 slots). ..cheapest avail' is fine ..the performance is no different....just add on's on more expensive models up the price.(number of m2 slots, wi-fi, flashing rgb ....) .....GTX 1080ti is more than adequate (or a nice priced titanx if you can find one?).....if your machine is running heavy, 24/7, then you should look at Quadro. .... Run system off m2 memory slot (samsung 970 evo 250GB) .....Storage ..SSD for work and frequently used libraries .....Storage ...Large SATA's for archives. .... Of course there are intel's x & Extreme ranges.... but the equiv' prices are more than double AMD's.... A valuable resource to help determine your system and available parts & prices in your country is https://pcpartpicker.com/ Tried to keep this non technical ....although based on pc ....with a little thought the logic can be applied to mac systems. Martin
I should say I also messaged support and they offered to have an online/screen assist session but it was resolved before we had chance to investigate.. So 1st port of call, should be to message support (if you can carryout a screenshare meet). My solution was simple (but I have no idea why it resolved my issue) 1) When you start FormZ ....a hints/help pop up screen boots by default before FormZ fully loads. The option box to switch off is a selection box in the bottom left of that screen (message... 'always show on startup'..) un select that option. ....re-start FormZ ....now it boots straight into the application with no pop up start/hints screen. ...This resolved the freeze issue for me. .... 2) If you have Vray installed and you cannot even start-up due to an immediate freeze .... Goto C>Program Files>formZ 8>Plugins ...re name the contained folder ...'V-Ray for formZ' to 'V-Ray for formZ_old' This will disable Vray and you should now be able to start formZ without a freeze. Now follow the route in 1) to disable the start /hints pop-up window Close formZ... try formZ a couple of times ....no Freeze? 3) follow 2) to find folder 'V-Ray for formZ_old' again but delete the suffix _old ....leaving original folder name of V-Ray for formZ 4) re start formZ .... should now start with Vray loaded and no more freezes This worked for me ....(been using for about a month with no freezes) Try it... if not working get in touch with support. (They offered me an online meet for the following morning) Good luck Martin
I had exactly the same problem ....I have used a couple of ways round it. I have Vray installed. ....re-named the Vray folder with suffix '_old' ....so Vray does not load ....FormZ started fine. Obviously this was not a great fix as I want to use the Vray I purchased So I updated the graphics drivers.... still a recurring freeze on start-up requiring force quit. Then I switched off the 'start-up/hints window (un-ticked the always show on start). ......No problems since; even with Vray active. Worked for me, please post if this also solves your problem. Martin.....

Create the Future
For much of my life, I believed that I could not create the future. I believed my future was set, that there was a path I was destined to take and that my job was to find that path and, having found it, to stay on it. As someone raised in a conservative Christian tradition, that path was called 'God's will'.
Just over a decade ago, I heard a speaker at a conference talk about this path. He said that people often saw 'God's will' as a tightrope – narrow and difficult to stay on – but, he saw it more as a six-lane highway where all the lanes were going in the same direction and if you continued moving forward, it didn't matter which lane you were in or if you changed lanes.
What a great way of looking at the future! This meant that I had choices.
In the last 10 or 12 years, I have proved the truth of this perspective. I've switched 'lanes' a number of times but I have always been moving in the same direction. I have realised that the plans and ideas that are in my head are valid – I don't need someone else's assent or approval to envision and act – and I now have a three-step plan for creating the future that I desire.
Create the future – first you have to see it
The first step is to have a vision.
A vision often starts off as a dream or a bright idea. This is a most important step – we must be able to 'see' ourselves in a new place, doing something new, being the someone we want to be.
Our minds are powerful things. Athletes know that and use their minds to envision themselves crossing the finishing line in first place, clearing a certain height as they jump or pole vault, seeing that little white ball drop into the hole in the middle of the green, or seeing that smash leave their tennis opponent staring.
Children have no problems with dreaming of their future. For them, the future is filled with endless possibilities and they are often told by their parents that they can be anything they want 'when they grow up'. But, somewhere along the way, adults often lose that ability to dream, or they shelve those dreams in the face of a very different reality.
I've had two dreams in my life and both involve communicating. The first was to be a school-of-the air teacher – to be able to instruct and impact others over a long distance. The second was to be public or professional speaker – again to connect and communicate with people and impact their lives.
What are your dreams, from childhood or your youth? What do you 'see'?
Create the future – then you must believe it
To turn a dream into a vision it must have feet, and this is where the second step is so important – we must believe that our dreams are possible and not just possible but possible for us. Part of the believing is convincing ourselves, 'selling' ourselves on the idea of our dreams becoming a reality.
There are all too many people willing to tell us that we cannot achieve our dreams. In the process of my moving out of full-time employment to make my dream of professional speaking a reality, I talked with a friend about my ideas. He liked to play 'devil's advocate' and come up with the worst-case scenarios – which in my case was to conclude that, because I had very little materially in my life, I had nothing on which to build a successful business. In his words "Bronny has nothing!"
In one way his assessment was accurate – I had very little, but my friend's negative outlook did not take into consideration my belief in myself or my determination to make something out of nothing.
Belief. It is the key component for turning a dream into a vision that you can run with. Do you believe you can do what you 'see' in your head?
Create the future – last of all just do it
Finally, we must act.
No vision will become a reality if we do not actually do something! And that 'doing' will always involve some measure of risk and discomfort. To make a vision a reality takes work, hard work. It involves developing the necessary skills to be able to 'see' your dream outside your head. For me, that has involved 'risking' money on business coaching and speaking opportunities. It has involved investing money in learning skills for me to operate effectively in the online space.
And the results of that risk and work?
Those two dreams of my childhood and young adulthood have become reality – although they look a little different to what I originally 'saw'. I am now involved in a weekly podcast that has the potential reach of millions around the globe (rather than school via the radio). I have been a public speaker for more than three decades and have spoken around Australia and internationally as a professional speaker. And, more than that, in just over 18 months I have coached clients, spoken internationally, run my own events and am building a global online presence as an authority in my field.
My dreams are now my reality – and I've only just begun.
What about you? What are you doing to turn your dream into a reality?
Would you like someone to keep you accountable or unlock more of your potential so your dreams become reality?
If you feel as though you are only taking baby steps or that your reality is not coming fast enough – be patient and expect the best. Baby steps are great – you are moving. Your reality is building slowly and that's ok – it's building.
Want some guidance or clarity? Leave your details below and I'll be in touch. Together, we can hone your vision, increase your belief and make it happen!

|Business travel assessment offers new optimism for decade's start
Air Travel News
Monday, January 18, 2010
Based on a new survey, more than a quarter of business travel buyers conveyed they had additional money to spend in 2010 and more than a third will book extra trips. Some 1400 business travel managers lately surveyed by the Business Travel and Meetings Show discovered a hopeful outlook for the beginning of the new decade, with 76% of those polled stating they thought the recession would finish by the end of the year.
Statistics showed 27% of budgets will be increased for 2010 and 35% of buyers will arrange extra trips. Four in ten buyers will handle the same amount of trips in 2010 and only a quarter will formulate fewer bookings. However an enormous 81% said they had little choice but to implement stricter pricing policies, with 44% confirming they will book lower class airline tickets and 22% lesser quality accommodation. Meanwhile 46% plan to increase their use of video conferencing.
Business Travel & Meetings Show events director David Chapple stated that the business travel industry has gone through a very rough ride over the last 18 months, so these survey results are a much desired sparkle of optimism as the whole world enters a new decade.

The problem with politicians is that the internet never forgets, today Labour Leader Ed Miliband gave his speech, straight away the MSM got hard-ons and the lost voters came flocking back to the party (Ok the "voters flocking back to party " is tosh), Anyway, a famous quote once said this "Judge someone by their actions, not their words", I hope we all agree on that?
So, to Ed Miliband in actions
Metro while Ed was in government, and we all know what happened to that in the end.
Ed Miliband did not resign, he must bare responsibility to doubling the tax on the lowest paid.
Today he talked about who he is, i would rather look at his actions.

It's mesmerizing. Right, Hart Beat? One of my favorite artists Libby Vander Ploeg, who has worked with Food52 in the past, published this PSA for International Women's Day called "Life Each Other Up" earlier this month. Now in the days of social media these small(ish?) holidays are everywhere and I usually just pass them by. National Donut Day! National Hug a Friend Day! National you have a sibling day who cares we all have siblings day. They can be a bit much. Also, if every day is a holiday of some kind then they never seem special.
International Women's Day though, it got me thinking. With everything shitty going on in the world, not to mention all the fear mongering and general hate happening in this country, it was nice to have a day where I was seeing all my favorite ladies being celebrated. From bloggers, to celebrities, to politicians, everyone was preaching wise words that they have heard from a women. So much love was spread.
The day got me thinking about how we should think about women and the roll we've all played in each other lives every day. And, even more than that, that we've got to lift each other up everyday. Because if we don't, who will? That's why I'm in love with this gif and am in love with you Hart Beat. As a belated International Women's Day, here are a few posts I've published in the past waxing love for women everywhere.
- Reece Witherspoon preaching the lack of women in the film industry.
- Connie Britton and the actual secret to her FAB HAIR (spoiler, it's feminism).
- A great book about women and our relationships with clothes.
- An interview with actor Julie Delpy on strong female leads.
- I'm Just Not Sorry anymore (and you can be too!).
- Thanks birth control!
- Quotes from some incredible young women working in the creative world today.
- You're a babe.
- An interview with the (was new) Editor in Chief at Cosmopolitan.
- A video about being 35 and single.
Happy reading, Hart Beat!! And happy everydayshouldbewomens day!

53 win- win- win " Contrary to popular belief, Tesco's most potent significant competitive advantage in the UK is not its scale. We believe Clubcard, which conveys an array of material benefits across virtually every discipline of its business, is Tesco's most potent weapon in the ongoing battle for market share. Very simply; Tesco is big because it's good, not vice versa." J. P. Morgan Cazenove Limited, Tesco analyst report ( August 31st 2005)
54 Customer data is good for brands, good for retailers and good for customers. By placing customers first, rewarding loyalty and listening intently to their needs, both business stakeholders are able to improve their share of wallet. For example, a customer-centric retailer would never send a mailing to a loyal Pepsi drinker persuading them to buy Coca- Cola because it's not good for customers. Edwina believes that customer data is a powerful currency within business because of its honesty. " This is how you get an honest view of reality," she says. " It's the one figure that is factual and clear - you see the truth warts and all. Just follow exactly what the customers are doing." Many chief executives struggle to draw parallels between the different reporting structures and different metrics that department heads and product managers use to prove that they have the best department in the business, even if the share price and profits say otherwise. The neutrality of customer data is one reason it speaks so loudly to leaders. It directly links the shop floor to the boardroom. Look after the loyal One of dunnhumbyUSA's clients ' The Home Depot' came to realise that their business would grow if they paid more attention to their existing loyal shoppers, rather than become distracted by winning new ones. As recently reported in the press, analysis of The Home Depot's customer data revealed that even its best customers were only spending 40% share of their wallet. Indeed, 3% of the DIY retailer's best customers represented over 25% of their sales. Half of these were professionals - builders, plumbers and carpenters - and half were small business owners. The Home Depot was in danger of alienating its most valuable customers as it had shifted its focus onto ' softer' elements of DIY, like furnishings and decorations. The Home Depot had not appreciated how valuable its professional customers were and had not been rewarding them or targeting its marketing and services around their needs. The home retailer is now on a journey to ensure its pricing and product selection rewards its most loyal customers too. any colour you like as long as it's any colour you like Just follow what the customers are doing

Tsokar lake reflections
The peaks of the mountains of the Tsokar range reflected in a puddle on the shores of the Tsokar lake in Ladakh.
The Tsokar lake is one of the 3 high altitude salt lakes located in the Changthang region of Ladakh, India. The lake is fed by the glacial streams running from the mountains surrounding it. And the lake does not drain into any stream or river, and so it is salty as a result. Infact all the 3 lakes of ladakh, Pangong, Tsomoriri and Tsokar are like this, classic endoheric basins.
The Tsokar lake has a lot of character. Unlike the Pangong and Tsomoriri lakes, the Tsokar basin is lush with marshy vegetation, irrigated by various streams that flow through it. It is a very interesting place for photographers and for bird watchers alike.

A six-sided internally threaded fastener with rounded projections on top surface of the corners of the fastener. The six-projection style has weldable projection at all six corners; the three projection style has weldable projection atop every other corner. The threaded hole runs through the center and has a pilot for the entire circumference of the opening which extends above the top surface of the nut and above the projections. The remainder of the top surface of the nut is flat.
This weld nut is designed to achieve two ends: (1) the pilot is self-locating so it can be used with an automated feeding mechanism; (2) when the nut is fully tightened, the pilot protects the internal threads from welding residue.

Stamps are big news in Japan. A person will often have a hanko or personal stamp, and you see shops and even vending machines selling these. You'll also find special stamps as you travel around Japan- each station you visit will have a special stamp and so will lots of other tourist spots.
It's a good idea to grab a notebook, or buy a special Eki Stamp book, or even a Temple Stamp book, because you'll find stamps along the way at temples too. A special book will be a little more expensive, but will make a lovely souvenir.
The spot where you can grab your stamp won't always be immediately apparent, but the station staff will be able to point you in the right direction. Plus, you'll get better at spotting the set up as you go.
