If history has taught us anything, it's that workplace safety is an absolute must!
The four workplace disasters detailed below prove just how quickly things can go wrong if proper workplace safety practices aren't adhered to.
The Bhopal Gas Leak
It was December 2, 1984 when a tank containing methyl isocyanate ruptured, releasing 30 metric tonnes of toxic gas into the air within an hour. The responsible party was the pesticide plant, Union Carbide India Limited located in Bhopal.
There's much speculation over the initial and long-term death tolls, but it's believed to come in at roughly 16,000 people. It's also believed the disaster occurred as a result of poor maintenance and poor management, as a number of safety systems, pipe and gas cleaning systems were all offline at the time of the incident. Many of the plant's valves were also in a poor condition.
The Titanic
We all know the story of the Titanic, but do you know just how many overlooked safety precautions led to the disaster that has been retold for generations?
When the RMS Titanic collided with an iceberg during its maiden voyage on April 14, 1912, 1,503 of the 2,208 crew and passengers died.
This number could have been drastically reduced if better health and safety precautions were taken. For instance, there were only enough lifeboats to accommodate 1,178 people and because they were launched under-capacity, only 705 people escaped on them. The RMS Titanic also ignored six iceberg warnings before it eventually crashed into one at nearly full speed. These issues were a result of poor training and out-dated policies.
The Honkeiko Colliery Mining Disaster
It was April 26, 1942 and WWII had the whole world in turmoil. The Japanese were running a captured Chinese mine, the Honkeiko Colliery Mine when there was a gas explosion in one of the shafts.
Now, if you know a thing or two about mining, you would know that it was an incredibly dangerous occupation back in the day, with gas explosions being quite common. However, what makes this particular explosion so devastating is that after only a brief attempt to evacuate the mine, its Japanese operators decided to shut off the ventilation to the affected shafts in an attempt to starve the fire of oxygen. In doing so, they sealed more than 30% of the workforce inside. The death toll came in at a staggering 1,549 people, with only 31 of them being Japanese – the rest were forced Chinese labourers.
The Rana Plaza Collapse
On April 24, 2013, the Rana Plaza building in Bangladesh collapsed, killing 1,130 people and injuring a further 2,500.
As it turns out, serious corners were cut during the construction of the building in an attempt to reduce costs, which resulted in 42 people, including the building's owners being charged with murder after the devastating collapse.
Some of the transgressions include being built on a site where there had been a pond, adding an additional four unapproved storeys to the building, operating as an industrial site when it was built for commercial purposes, and It was built using cheap, substandard building materials.
It's really not surprising the building collapsed!
However, the most tragic part of the whole incident is that most of the businesses operating within the building had walked out when the cracks first appeared on the lower floors. However, they were ordered to return to work, and their first day back was the day the building collapsed.
Flash forward to the present, and workplace health and safety standards have improved dramatically, however, constant vigilance is required to ensure disasters such as these, don't happen again.

Happy to finish my Twofer Cards today for Challenge #3 of the Twofer Card Challenge.... Blossoms.
I don't think I've made a card with this old rosebud stamp before, so I've really challenged myself with the purple one, inspired by the talented DT to think outside the box .... can you see the rosebuds stamped in a circle, I added the stems before I fussy cut them and also the leaves are part of the bud. I used Distress Oxides to watercolour them and the background panel is a sheet from a freebie bundle with a magazine. I used some purple card to frame it and a darker purple card, finished with a stamped sentiment and die cut. I kind of like my crazy bright flowers.

Another solid example of a 2nd Luft! The blade on this one looks good. It has a tight fit, sharp tip and the acid etched "AWS Alcoso Solingen" maker mark is nicely executed! The crossgaining can easily be seen the whole length of the blade. Overall the blade rates Exc+/Exc++. There is some age grey and spotting throughout along with some rough areas to the edges. The original brown leather buffer pad remains intact. The steel based, nickel-silver plated scabbard looks great. It is wonderfully detailed with oak leaves and acorns and random pebbling throughout. There is some minor oxidization spotting throughout. There is a large pressure mark to the obverse. The single more efficient screw remain intact. The matching patinaed crossguard looks awesome! It is beautifully detailed throughout the eagles feathers and wings along with the top side embossed acorns and oak leaves! The steel ferrule and pommel are both nicely detailed! The wood based celluloid covered grip looks excellent being chip and crack-free! The correct Alcoso specific single strand aluminum wire wrap remain in perfect condition and has a nice and tight fit. For those of you who are saying to yourselves, "Oh that looks funky...". Well, you're right and it is completely textbook, that's how they made these, see Wittmann's reference pg 196!

text: A supposed sequel to The Spiritual Boxer which I've seen but never posted a review. Both movies are comedies but this one is really ridiculous. This is the first Chinese hopping vampire movie I've ever watched. As far as movie monsters go, they're probably the lamest ever imagined. Just weird and goofy. If you can look past the bonkers premise, it's entertaining as far as these things go. Gordon Liu is an added bonus.

twig boy cooks – avocado salsa
A wonderfully classic and simple side dish for you here. This salsa goes amazingly well with pretty much everything but particularly pings when combined with anything using twig boys fiery cajun spice rub.
It's rather versatile so you can add other vegetables if you like (think bell peppers etc) and goes quite cosmically on toast. Plus, it has avocados in, so that's good for all the millennials out there yeah? Anyway, whether you choose to have it with chilli, on toast or with a massive bag of nachos it's well worth the (minimal) effort. Enjoy.
Ingredients. Serves 2. Prep time – 15 minutes. Resting time – 1 – 3 hours.
1 red onion
1 large tomato
1 large avocado
1 lime
1 garlic clove
½ tsp cumin powder
½ tsp coriander powder
½ tsp cayenne pepper – optional
Salt to taste
ONE. Select your finest ingredients, a sharp knife and a large chopping board. This can get messy.
TWO. Mince (crush) the garlic and using a hand juicer, juice the lime. You're better off doing this first as you're racing against time as soon as you cut into the avocado. An air distorted avocado is a sin. Add the garlic to a large mixing bowl. Keep the lime juice to one side.
THREE. Finely dice the red onion and cut the tomato into fairly chunky chunks. You can do smaller chunks if you like but it's not as good and a lot more fiddly and messy when it comes to the tomato. Once you have settled on the right size of 'chunk' add them to the bowl with the garlic. This is also the time to add any extra vegetables.
FOUR. Cut your avocado in halfway lengthways using the stone as a guide. Separate the two halves and pop the stone out using a spoon. Use the same spoon to scoop out the luscious green flesh of the fruit. Slice it vertically and then horizontally to get some quite epic avocado pieces. Quickly, but stylishly, add these to the mixing bowl and then add your seasoning and lime juice. Give it all a massive big stir.
FIVE. Cover the salsa with cling film/plastic wrap and push the wrap down so it is touching the salsa (I'm not sure why it just makes it better) then leave to stand for as long as you want really. It will be fine on the kitchen side for 2 hours, any more than that and I'd 100% refrigerate it.

One week after East Akron Community House board members appealed to Council for support, former-ward 5 Councilman Ken Jones urged Council to save the services provided by EACH, but to let the organization collapse. During the public speaking portion of Council, Jones recalled his and others' efforts spanning four years to help resolve problems at EACH, but the board continually refused assistance. "The board is not accountable. Save the services, but don't save that organization and board," he said. Council members weighed in with varying opinions about Council's responsibilities, but President Garry Moneypenny said he was not prepared to intervene or form a special committee until an in-progress investigation of EACH by the Ohio Attorney General's office is complete.

For more than two decades, the gazebo at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts (VCCA) has been a focal point, gathering place, and space for poetry readings, spoken word, and musical events for the regional community. Designed by Lynchburg-based architect and VCCA board member John Owen, the evocative wood structure was built out of historic materials from the original 19th-century house which was on site but burned in 1978. Today, the gazebo shows the effects of decades of environmental exposure and deferred maintenance, rendering it no longer useable.
In a pilot project designed to tap the expertise and energy of its Fellows, VCCA is accepting applications for Gazebo Restoration Fellowships. Applications are open for two fully-funded spring 2020 residencies lasting from four to six weeks and include a private bedroom, separate studio, and all meals in a community of 25 visual artists, writers, and composers.
Gazebo Restoration Fellows will be expected to work half of their residency time on the gazebo restoration project and the other half on their own creative endeavors. The restoration work will entail replacing stair treads and decking, milling replacement balustrades while restoring those still in fair condition, and replacing all newel posts, in addition to small wooden elements of the cupola. Sanding, scraping, caulking and sealing of all surfaces will be done before painting. All work will be done under the direction of a professional preservation craftsman.
Candidates for these fellowships must have demonstrated proficiency in woodworking and finish carpentry, in addition to meeting the criteria of artistic achievement or promise of achievement. The deadline for applications is September 15, 2019. Apply today!

I highly recommend them for any event." ~ May 2017
"There are NO words to convey my gratitude and admiration for your team. Truly, from their very core, they performed at a level very few have ever, or will ever, achieve."
"Your team took service to a whole new level resetting the bar. They were amazing, demonstrating an internal level of commitment few people have or few companies are fortunate to employ."
"The party was fantastic and the food went over very well. You made everything so easy and the staff are always such a joy to work with."
"Our reception turned out great. Your staff were hard working and professional. They did a wonderful job. It was PERFECT."
"You made my wedding a dream come true! With short notice and many changes, along with your kind, constant reminders, I had a cozy, luxurious reception."
"Thank you again for a wonderful event. I cannot tell you how many people commented on the delicious food. Catering by Seasons went way overboard and made the event so special. We are so grateful you were there."
"I want to let you know how wonderful it was to work with you! Our event planner was extremely helpful, flexible, and always responded in a timely manner. The food was delicious and the servers were outstanding. Your chef did a beautiful job presenting the food."
"We cannot thank you enough for all you did for our daughters' Bat Mitzvahs. Everyone involved was extraordinarily kind, helpful and professional; this was always reassuring and often quite touching. And the food was fantastic!"

I heard 'This food is fantastic!' more often than 'The bride looks so lovely!' which, as the bride, I still took as the highest compliment."

"Thank you for all your help with our wedding! You were so helpful, open, creative, and flexible and the food was delicious and beautiful! I couldn't have been happier with the experience."

Banana Muffins RecipeJen Schall | My Kitchen Addiction Updated
This Banana muffins recipe calls for the use of a sourdough starter and chocolate chips. Yes, it's as delicious as it sounds.
Let's talk about nap time, shall we?
Before my daughter was born, I had this utopian idea of nap time. It would start right after lunch and last until I already had dinner in the oven. The little miss would love her nap time, eagerly snuggling in for her afternoon snooze without crying or fussing. I would have time to do everything that I did before having a baby. No problem, right?
Ha! All of the mothers out there are likely rolling their eyes or laughing out loud. In fact, I can barely keep a straight face as I type.
It turns out that my little girl isn't a big fan of nap time. She certainly does her fair share of fussing and crying when I try to lay her down for an afternoon siesta. And there's no chance that she will sleep from after lunch until almost dinnertime. It's unusual for her to sleep for more than 45 minutes! Most days, I barely have time to drink a glass of water (which I often forget to do when I am toting the kiddo around and snuggling while she's awake!) and get started on something before she's starting to wake up.
So, it will come as no surprise that I don't exactly get as much done in the kitchen as I used to. There's very little time for rolling out homemade puff pastry or decorating elaborate cakes and cookies. Instead, I am focused on recipes that I can put together in 10 or 15 minutes (i.e. before nap time ends!). But, much to my surprise, it turns out that I can still do quite a bit of baking in a limited amount of time. That's the beauty of baking. Once something's whipped up, I can go snuggle and play and let the oven do all the work!
These muffins are one of my recent nap time creations. They come together quickly and take advantage of the sourdough starter that hangs out in my fridge. They are tasty as an afternoon snack (I think most moms out there will agree that a late afternoon snack is a must!) or for breakfast with some fruit and yogurt. You won't really taste the sourdough flavor, but I think it improves the texture of the muffins and helps to keep them nice and moist. I've made them twice already, and I'm planning another batch next week!
Before we get to the recipe, let me give you one last hint: Be sure to pull the sourdough starter out of the fridge before nap time. You'll want it to be at room temperature when you are ready to bake. And we all know that there's no time to waste when it comes to nap time baking!
Don't have sourdough starter? You can make your own! Be sure to check out my simple tutorial. Happy baking!

GO GET Gran Turismo 6
This is the only time I will use the trending pound key sign! #GT6 the game is awesome! I'll post pics later I'm so addicted to it. The interactive game play, the back to the basics display, and the overall process of it.
1 Day to GT6
GT6 Event Shows more BMW rides…
GT5 .10 Days Left: A License to kill for.
The most annoying thing for GT fans are the licensing restrictions that have plagued us for years. The big three in the automobile simulation industry are Gran Turismo, Need for Speed, and Forza. They each have their own pluses and minuses however the most annoying trend especially for Gran Turismo is licensing of certain car manufacturers.
Gran Turismo's influence on the automobile industry is apparent and its obvious car manufactures wouldn't mind tag teaming with them or its competitors to further promote their cars and brand. Brands that have yet to come on GT are Porsche, Koneigsegg, and others. Porsche has always been on the list, but with their exclusive contract with EA, dollar signs and rules appear which restrict GT5 from using any Porsche models. This also happened in Forza 4, just as Forza was becoming more and more popular the contract with EA obviously got pricey (in my opinion) and had to use 2 RUF models instead. They did offer a download of the previous Porsche's that were on before, however you had to pay $14.99+ to get the pack (WTF).
This also goes with Ferrari which partners with Turn 10 and Nissan with Polyphony, however these partnerships aren't as ridiculous as Porsche and EA. It gets frustrating with all these monopoly's, but I guess it makes people want to buy other games since they have different cars. Whatever the case it frustrates and annoys me whenever I see a car I want to drive on a different game and only exclusive for a system I don't have, I can't afford a PS4 and Xbox One!

Discover the first installment in the new delightfully charming Scottish romance series where the matchmaker of Edinburgh uses her uncanny abilities to create the perfect matches—even if the couples are doubtful they'll ever find love.
An accomplished sculptor with secret ambitions, Ina Duncan has managed to avoid marriage for years until an accidental encounter at a party leaves her near ruin and in need of a husband. Fast. Determined to find a willing husband for Ina, Edinburgh's most powerful matchmaker, Moira Sullivan, quickly realizes that the solution to Ina's problem might be right in front of her.
Ina's best friend, Gavin Barrett, has a secret no one knows: he's loved her for years. As the second son of a baronet, however, he knows he has little chance with his brilliant, beautiful friend. All that changes when Moira convinces Ina to propose a marriage of convenience to Gavin to save her from ruin. Ina only wants two things from him in return: a vow she can continue to sculpt and a promise they'll remain in Edinburgh.
After a rocky start, happiness—and maybe passion—seems on the horizon for the newlyweds until a twist of fate bestows the title of Sir Barrett on Gavin and forces him to assume responsibilities he's never wanted. Forced to mold herself into the perfect baronet's wife, Ina must choose between her dreams and the man she's learning to love.
The Look of Love is a romantic friends-to-lovers story. I loved Ina and Gavin!
The Look of Love is set in 1875 Edinburgh, Scotland, and Ina Duncan is a strong willed young lady. Instead of attending lavish dinner parties or balls, Ina spends her time in her art studio. She has become an accomplished sculptor but society does not approve of women artist and the scandalous nude sculptors. Ina ignores society rules and continues to follow her passion. By her side are her supportive friends, one of them being Gavin Barrett. He has also broken society rules and against his father's wishes has pursued a career as a writer. The moment he met Ina he was smitten with her intellect, talent and beauty. As years go by their friendship grows stronger but Gavin's feelings for Ina grows to love. Ina refuses to get married and is clueless to Gavin's attraction. When Ina is on the verge of a scandal Gavin jumps to her rescue and agrees to marry her. Their marriage is a business deal but from the moment of their wedding kiss a spark of passion ignites. Can Ina and Gavin stay just as friends? Or will they open their hearts to a future together as man and wife? You have to read The Look of Love to find out all the steamy details!
I fell in love with Ina and Gavin. I loved how they connected as friends, being supportive and protective of each other. They had great chemistry and I loved the fun banter. Because of their painful past they both felt unworthy of love but together they face their fears. It was an amusing twist to see the lengths they took to show their love for each other (and it was absolutely swoon worthy). I am a huge fan of historical romance and I found a new author to add to my must-read list for this genre. I thought author Julia Kelly's writing was amazing and I loved the creativity and wit of her story. This is a great start to a new series and I can't wait to read more of Julia Kelly's books.

Yellowstone National Park Bison Sent to Slaughter — Up to 900 Expected to be Slaughtered This Winter
YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK – Up to an estimated 900 bison will be slaughtered this winter. The culling plan calls for the majority of the bison targeted for death to be turned over American Indian tribes to be slaughtered and a small amount to be killed by hunters.
The culling plan is part of the Interagency Bison Management Plan (IBMP) to appease the worries of ranchers located in Montana who fear bison will become infected with the bacterial disease brucellosis, which causes miscarriages in cattle. The fear is the disease potentially could be transmitted to their herds.
The two tribal affiliates shipping bison to slaughter for the second year in a row are the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes and the federally chartered Inter-Tribal Buffalo Council, which is headquartered in Rapid City, South Dakota.
There is opposition to the slaughter by conservation groups.
"It is unthinkable, profoundly incongruent, that Yellowstone National Park and Native Americans would participate in the brutal abuse and slaughter of the only wild population of buffalo remaining in this country," said Buffalo Field Campaign spokeswoman Stephany Seay.
"You think to yourself that this can't possibly be happening, but the shocking reality is that those who should be the fiercest champions and strongest allies for the buffalo are instead betraying them by taking the lead in the livestock industry's culture of death."
IBMP affiliates are no longer only using the weak excuse of brucellosis to commit the large bison slaughter, but have now shifted their argument to "population control." They aim to reduce the most important bison population in the world to a mere 3,000 animals.
Prior to the current winter's expected 900 slaughter, the bison population was estimated to be 4,900. Yellowstone's own bison carrying capacity study indicates that the Park alone can sustain upwards of 6,200 buffalo.
The Yellowstone buffalo are America's last wild, migratory herds and the most important bison population that exists. They are the last to identify as a wildlife species and ecologically extinct throughout their native range. They've been added to the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List for being "threatened with near extinction," and even Montana designates the species "in greatest conservation need" with conditions "making [bison] vulnerable to global extinction."
"Yellowstone National Park has been entrusted by the American people as stewards of this country's last wild buffalo," said David Martin, coordinator with Buffalo Field Campaign. "Stewards are supposed to protect and defend, not abuse and slaughter, so we can no longer trust them to do the right thing."

Beyond our Boundaries
We don't believe in just enriching the planet and the Under the Nile community, but also the lives of everyone around us.
We believe we have a responsibility for good stewardship to grow and enhance the communities surrounding us.
Chamomile Children
When I first started visiting Egypt back in 1998, I was astonished to see so many children doing manual labor, especially in the countryside where extreme poverty is apparent.
This is why Sekem started the Chamomile Program - they realized that if they did not take these children under their wing, that they could end up working for not so nice people down the road.
The program takes in children living in poverty in the surrounding villages to the Sekem farm daily, where they receive three meals, health care check-ups, and clothing while being taught essential life lessons.
Most importantly, the children are required to attend the Sekem School full time in order to be in the program. After school, they pick chamomile flowers supervised by a social worker. In turn, they receive a full day's wage for a half-day of work. These children's parents only accepted the idea of their children attending school because of the daily wage they still earn. This not only benefits the families by providing a source of income, but the children and their communities as well, by breaking the cycle of poverty through education.
It is a program that benefits everyone.
Supportive Work Environment
Multiple programs exist at the Sekem farm to provide opportunities for working mothers and the disabled. From creating a daycare located close to the farm, to developing a special needs program for the disadvantaged – we believe in providing equal opportunity for all members of the community to grow and advance as a whole.
how we give
Every purchase you make contributes to a better
world for people, the planet and most
importantly - your baby.

|Casper very well could be the most popular bed-in-a-box mattress available today. And for good reason—it's an incredibly comfortable bed. They now have a hybrid mattress that you might find interesting too!
If you created a list of the 10 most popular bed-in-a-box companies, both Helix and Casper would be on that list, alongside GhostBed, Purple, and others. As such, if you're looking to make your decision purely based on reputation, that's not really going to be manageable with these two beds. In reality, the Helix vs Casper debate comes down to 5 major items:
Of course there is more to consider than what we could fit into one video or a few bullet points, which is why we've assembled the rest of this review.
$100 Off + Gift
Code: SY100
Helix Sleep has taken the approach that not everyone is the same and therefore no single best mattress exists—hard to argue with that. As such, Helix actually makes over ten different mattress models, designed for several core types of sleepers.
Don't worry, you don't need to do any of the calculations yourself nor do you really need to know the difference between the nine models. Helix actually runs you through their Sleep Quiz in order to direct you to the most suitable mattress. The Sleep Quiz takes only a few seconds, but it's a brilliant way to tailor the mattress buying experience (and cut down on the number of returns).
The Sleep Quiz that you see above is a big differentiator for Helix and is one of the main reasons that someone would get one of their beds. You can take the Sleep Quiz for yourself on Helix's website.
Helix uses pocketed coils as the support system in all of their mattresses, whereas the original Casper mattress, Casper Wave, and Casper Element, all are entirely made of foam. That said, Casper now also sells two different hybrid models.
There are two things to consider here. The first is personal preference. You might prefer (or not prefer) the feel of a bouncy, responsive coil mattress.
The second is support. While Casper is undoubtedly a durable mattress, it's widely accepted that hybrid/spring mattresses are more durable than all-foam beds, long term. As such, we do really appreciate that Casper started selling those hybrid beds also.
Piggybacking off of the last section, the coils also make Helix a better mattress for heavier individuals. In fact, Helix has a specific model called Plus, which is specially designed for heavier folks (i.e. above 250 lb). You can see the Helix Plus mattress on Helix's website.
The bed is 12″ thick (just like the standard models) but uses XL wrapped coils and higher-density foams for added support.
Having said all of that, keep in mind that Casper Wave Hybrid will also now be a good solution for heavier people. It's a 13″ coil bed with a zoned support design.

Casper has to be the most widely recognized online mattress brands out there. The company advertises like crazy and is now worth hundreds of millions (if not billions) of dollars. Even so, their mattresses are remarkably simple. And we don't see that as a bad thing.
It used to be in the past that Helix was the only brand of the two that offered coil beds, however, in early 2019 Casper launched two hybrid beds of their own. You can see those new beds on Casper.com.
If you forced us to make a split second decision, we would anoint Casper the winner on comfort. In fact, we think Casper is one of the most comfortable mattresses available online today.
Now, clearly, comfort is subjective, but our entire team agrees that Casper is comfy—and we are all different weights, heights, genders, and have different sleeping preferences. Casper is just a universally comfortable bed.
Casper has more a neutral feel to it. Picture a softer, comfy foam and that's how Casper feels. It doesn't feel like memory foam or latex foam or an innerspring bed. It just feels neutral, almost boring (in a good way).
While you can get Helix in a variety of firmness levels ranging from soft to firm, Casper is middle of the road. It's about a medium on the soft-to-firm scale.
Here's what it all boils down to. If you're under 250 lb and just want the easy, safe pick, that's Casper. It's a really nice mattress.
We are splitting hairs on this one, but if you are a sensitive sleeper that wakes easily, Casper is probably the better option. Helix is actually efficient at deadening cross-mattress motion, as well, but it's hard to beat out an entirely foam bed. In general, coil mattresses tend to reverberate motion more than their all-foam brethren.

Let's cover an area where most consumers have questions: company policies. Both Helix and Casper offer free shipping with their mattresses.
The beds show up compressed and plastic wrapped inside of a box that about 48″ tall. It's actually a pretty neat thing to see a full size bed that has been (somehow) fit into a box. All you need to do is cart the box inside, remove the plastic wrapping, and allow your bed to fully inflate.
Here's a look at the unboxing process. Casper is shown, but it works the same way with both beds.
Both brands also offer a 100-night risk-free trial where you can evaluate the bed from the comfort of your own home. You have 3+ months to make your mind up on the mattress. This should be plenty of time to allow your body to adjust to the bed.
If, for whatever reason, you'd like return the mattress, both Helix and Casper offer 100% free returns. In fact, they will send someone to your house (usually a charity or 1-800-GOT-JUNK) to pick up the mattress free of charge.
You read that right, completely free returns, even if you've slept on the bed for 99 nights. That's a pretty great policy, although I should also point out that most other mattresses that we've reviewed also have the same policy.
If everything works out and you decide to keep the mattress (which most people do, otherwise these companies couldn't afford to offer the trial period and free returns) they both come with a 10-year warranty. Again, this is standard for the online mattress shopping industry. Leesa and Tuft & Needle, along with plenty of other brands, also have the same warranty policy.
There are a few big areas where you just can't give one bed the edge over the other—after all, they use similar materials and are both bed-in-a-box mattresses.
Without getting into the weeds here, both mattresses retail for around $1,000 for a queen size. That's pretty standard from what we've seen, at least with the mattresses that we've compared and reviewed.
However, after you apply coupon codes and discounts, Helix comes out to be around $100 less than Casper.
Both are responsive beds and have zero of that stuck-in-the-mud feeling that you typically see with memory foam mattresses. You can effortlessly switch between sleeping positions on the beds, which is great.
The plot thickens. Helix and Casper are both suitable for back, stomach, side, and combination sleepers. Both offer ample pressure relief and support. Regardless of your preferred sleeping position, you should be just fine with either mattress.
We can't really pick a clear winner here either. In fact, both of them aren't fantastic for edge support. But this is something that we see with a lot of softer mattresses; they just compress a little too much along the edges so that you get a little of that roll-off sensation. There's an easy solution for this, however, and that is to upgrade sizes.
Edge support only really affects couples, so instead of getting a queen or a full, if you can, upgrade to a king that gives you more areas to stretch out.

Introduction: The Solder Saver (locking Cam Solder Dispensing Pen)
"How should I preface this Instructable?" I ask myself. Seemingly, since the beginning of time, man has had the urge to stick solder into a pen and post pictures online. Well, I briefly considered delving into the larger history of the solder pen, but then lack of motivation got the better of me. So without further ado, here's the Solder Saver.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Why Would You Use a Solder Pen, Anyway?
Though I've been keen to follow the evolution of other solder pens, I have personally found them to be inefficient. I use solder off the reel. (A homemade reel-dispenser, anyway, but I digress.)
So why make a solder pen? Well, I had broken several lengths of solder off the reel during some recent tinkering. Rather than throw them away, I decided I needed to create a way to use them up as best I could. I am also addicted to building things, and I was bored.
***The Solder Saver is designed to provide storage and precision deployment of small scraps of toxic solder which might have otherwise ended up in a land fill. It is also made with very few simple materials, including a disposable pen. These attributes make this device eco-friendly.
Step 2: What You Need
1 round tube-type disposable pen
1 scrap of 24 gauge steel wire
1 stick from a wooden cotton swab
Some tape
A small drill bit
A pair of pliers
An exacto knife
If you had a complete pen, you could probably use the ink tube in place of the wooden cotton swab. It might even work better, because it would have reduced friction compared to a cotton swab. But I used what I had lying around.
Step 3: Assembly
1. Disassemble the pen. My pen was already cut, because I already used part of it for something else. So my pen is kinda small. You do not need to cut your pen, unless you want to.
2. Take the stick and roll up some tape around one end, until it just barely fits into the pen tube with a good friction fit.
- Alternative: you could probably just use the ink tube and collette off the pen, if you have a complete pen, which I didn't have.
4. Bend your steel wire into the shape of a staple. The width of the "staple" must be just big enough to slide into the pen tube. You need 2 of these.
5. Roll solder onto the stick.
6. Slide your "staples" through the holes.
7. Feed solder as shown. The last loop of solder must go over the inner staple, then go under the outer staple.
8. Slide the assembly into the pen body.
Step 4: Finished
Now you're done.
Pull on the end to expose more solder. The solder neatly uncoils itself, turning around the shaft while being straightened by the cams. The coil shape, itself, provides the stability of the tip. It doesn't rely on friction mechanisms. The exposed solder will not move back or forth, and it will never knot up or fall back into the pen!
So start saving your solder scraps from the garbage bin. And take care not to create more waste by repeatedly running a length of solder through this thing in order to admire your handy work, cuz the solder will eventually fall apart. Ask me how I know. :)
If you liked this Instructable, be sure to check out my other ones by clicking on my screen name. You will be magically whisked away to a world where time, boredom, and garbage is transformed into marginally useful STUFF. (And you might catch a glimpse of the cutest cat in the world.) :)

wow thanks :D i realy needed something like this
Seems interesting. I use the commercial yellow container, but I have problemas: the end of the tin coil always go to the inner, and I must open the container to extract it.
Unless I'm mistaken, I know exactly what you're talking about. I call that "tubed solder." There's no reason you couldn't use this concept for other solder pens or even tubed solder. I mean, I could use a normal pen tip and the entire mechanism could be internal. For a tube of solder, all you need to do is make it bigger. Instead of a Q-tip, use a 3/16" brass tube and some brass cross pins. Then use the solder tube as the holder. Hey, some of those solder tubes are clear. You could watch the whole coil turn as you pulled. It's a fascinating motion. Kinda like Niagara falls... the whole thing is in motion, but it's almost like nothing's moving.
Yes, I understand you. I am saying I will try your device. I speak Spanish, therefore sometimes I don't know explain myself in English.
I was going to post a instructable like that. I use a old marker pen and only solder that is twisted like a spring. No fancy stuff. Very simple. Keep it up! Jerome ps- nice workbench and thanks for the tips on the breadboard
Thanks! I appreciate the comment. I do appreciate simplicity. But I think it goes beyond that. What I really like are things that are ubiquitous - things that are easy to build, repair, replace, or replicate. That's why I'm a big fan of the Bic pen, even though I rarely use them as intended. (They hurt my hand to actually write with!)
It's a good piece of work - I'd initially thought you'd be using a clutch-pencil (sure I saw that 20 years ago, but maybe not...)
I'm one of those people who holds the solder tub in his teeth...


text: Kage2020 10 Report post Posted January 18, 2016 The "Fan Project" is there as an obvious caveat: I'm just doing this for the fun of it and, of course, that means there's always the danger that I'm blowing in the wind and nothing will come of this. On the other hand, if I get it to where I want there will be a spangly little PDF to go with it, or maybe ePub3 (as I wish there were more of those for RPGs). The Background So, why "Shadowrun Apocalypse"? Back in the day I was hanging out on a 40k forum that was heavy in the play-by-post roleplayers. I got fired up and one of the concepts that was bandied around was a non-40k on: RP'ing in the setting of the video game Hellgate: London. The only problem was that I was in the, for me, untenable position of GMing for a bunch of people that knew more about the setting than I did. On the other hand, it did remind me of the The London Sourcebook for Shadowrun, and that got me thinking about a potential crossover. The Gist For those that don't know, the Earthdawn setting is set in the distant past of Shadowrun, a post-apocalyptic fantasy set after "The Scourge." The Scourge happened when the cycles of magic had reached such a peak that magical gates opened up to the planes of the "Horrors" who then promptly swarmed over the face of the Earth like leviathan with a need to snack on metahumans. Metahumans had some warning, so they were able to protect themselves with magical rituals that basically jammed people inside of holes in the ground (kaers) where they were protected by a whole bunch of earth and a whole bunch of magic. Eventually the ambient levels of magic reduced and most of the Horrors withdrew. Metahumanity clambered out of the kaers and returned to the surface. Shenanigans ensue. Shadowrun is set during the next peak of magic after Earthdawn's Fourth World, where magic was diminishing and heading into the magic-less Fifth Age. Yet while magic various on a sinusoidal pattern that returns it to the world every 5,200 years (or so), there are things called "mana spikes" that allow a temporary and localised resurgence of magic. And that gets us back to Shadowrun Apocalypse. The Setting (Thumbnail) A bunch of magical spikes have happened across the world, focused on some of the largest urban centres. In-setting shenanigans caused them--conspiracies and the like--but they appear to be here to stay, and expanding. Within this spikes, these magical beachheads to hell, things have gone a little bit haywire (to say the least). Step in the imagery from Hellgate: London. The metahumanity that has survived driven underground into ersatz shelters, hiding from the Horrors and their constructs. On the bright side, if you can say there is a bright side, magic is enhanced in these areas. Mages and Adepts are capable of things undreamed of before the Spikes. I'm a tad focused on London because of the aforementioned sourcebook, but there are images of deep level tube stations acting as ersatz "kaers," with the protection from the Horrors primarily revolving around tons over earth (a physical barrier to constructs, and an astral barrier to Horrors) and magic of obfuscation, but also a hell of a lot of luck. People managing to survive, barely. Some even fighting back. As the Spike Zones roll out and expand, the dominoes of government and corporate response fall and the ability of metahumanity to respond and even survive diminishes. The fight goes on. What I'm Doing The above could be run quite handily using almost any generic system, and I've tried a number of them in the past. However, to fit in with some of what I want to do I've essentially got to tinker with three inter-related settings: Earthdawn, Shadowrun, and Equinox (this last being a numbers filed-off version of Shadowrun that plays very Firefly and is quite closely tied to d6). Most of this is (relatively) easy. Cyberware and other augmentation. Magical abilities. A novel way to do hacking--that sort of thing. Most difficult for me has been pulling together a central magic system that works on some of the 'fluff' (I'm thinking of the Earthdawn setting book Denizens of Barsaive and Shadowrun's Tir na n'Og, both of which focus on elemental magic). * * * So, yeah, that's what I'm up to and why I signed on to the forum--in the hopes of picking peoples' minds if they were up for it. Hope to see you around. Kage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super League Triathlon (SLT) has partnered with 2XU, a global leader in sports compression and high-performance sports apparel. As part of the deal, 2XU will supply the official SLT race suits for the season, as well as kitting out all SLT staff at each league location.
The deal also includes consumer merchandise offerings, which will be available to buy at each event in the SLT Championship series. Those age group athletes who take part in the mass participation events will also receive a 2XU item of race clothing.
The league will culminate in 50 leading pro athletes battling it out for the title of 'the ultimate all-round triathlete'.
Designed and tested in consultation with sports scientists and industry experts, 2XU is seen as a natural fit for SLT – the sportswear company is a pioneer in the compression category and has a long-relationship with triathlon. In a release, SLT adds that it 'prides itself on sporting innovation; putting professional athletes on a world stage to give accessibility and entertainment to sports fans everywhere.'
Co-founded by former professional triathlete Jamie Hunt as a specialist triathlon brand, 2XU has a strong heritage in the sport. World champions including Daniela Ryf, Terenzo Bozzone, Emma Carney and Craig Alexander – and SLT's very own Matt Hauser – have all chosen to train and perform in 2XU's endurance range, which features 'world-leading technology to enhance the performance of both elite and everyday athletes'.
Super League Triathlon travels to some of the world's most spectacular racing destinations throughout the season: Jersey (29-30 September), Malta (27-28 October), Mallorca (3-4 November), Singapore (23-24 February 2019) and Australia (16-17 March 2019). SLT adds that 'With 2XU on board, sports fans will lay witness to the ultimate battles in men's and women's professional triathlon'.
Michael D'hulst, Super League Triathlon's CEO, said "It's great to have 2XU on board with us as our global apparel partner; this brand has triathlon in its DNA and is in such alignment with our values and desire to excite and engage both triathlon fans and sports fans globally. SLT is a highly addictive and fast-paced experience for both the triathletes and the fans, and 2XU's presence only bolsters this experience."
Jamie Hunt, 2XU Co-founder and Director of Product Development, said "We're really excited to be the official apparel partner of Super League Triathlon. The SLT series will bring together the world's best triathletes in an innovative race format, so it's fitting that 2XU – the world's leading triathlon brand with a global reputation for technical innovation – will be there to help athletes perform at their peak."
He continued, "2XU has a strong heritage in triathlon and we're looking forward to sharing our world-leading endurance and apparel technology with the SLT competitors. I raced in this exciting format myself as a professional triathlete back in the 1990s when it was first introduced in Australia, and I can say it's both the toughest racing on the planet and the best to watch, so it's exciting to see this series up and running."

Bangalore (ISJ): India?s Mars Orbiter Mission or Mangalyaan, launched on Tuesday (Nov. 5) is functioning smoothly according to Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). The 1,350 kg robotic satellite was injected into Earth?s orbit in a perfect launch from Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota. It is currently on its first round around the Earth.
The spacecraft will orbit around Earth five times, before entering into Sun-centric orbit on December 01. According to real time Satellite Tracking website www.n2yo.com, Mangalyaan was over Sudan in the African continent at 1600 hrs on Wednesday (Nov. 06). It however, will not fly over India, as its trajectory would cross Indian Ocean. The spacecraft was at a perigee (closest point from Earth) of 264.1 km and an apogee (farthest point from Earth) of 23,903.6 km with a degree of inclination of 19.3 degree.
Meanwhile, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited says, the structural assemblies and four types of welded propellant tankages for the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C25) were contributed by it. In a press release, HAL Chairman Dr. RK Tyagi said, the company had also delivered bare satellite structure and deck panel to ISRO. The satellite structure is an assembly of composite and metallic honeycomb sandwich panels with a central composite cylinder. The honeycomb panels and the composite cylinder were supplied by HAL?s Composite Manufacturing Division and the structural assembly work carried out at its Aerospace Division. The payload, propellant systems, solar panels etc were integrated into the bare structure by ISRO.

I started playing guitar when I was around 14 and never stopped in the last 20 years. My guitar has always been there for me, in the best as in the lowest moments. Together we went through a lot of sorrows, bliss, experimentations of all sort and well, probably like any relationship after so many years together my guitar and myself got used to one another and somehow ended up often going through the same routine of chords, songs and solos. Boredom was not far.
And so as it sometime happens about a month ago I started frequenting another party. This new adventure brought new colours to my life, a new enthusiasm, a new passion, I discovered a new love for music thanks to a… ukulele.
Just like any new relationship at first I found myself shy and clumsy. I had to discover new finger positions and I could feel my brain rewiring. But let me tell you one thing, a ukulele is a very inviting journey! Because it could fit in my bag I found myself going everywhere accompanied by my new passion, a break at work, a walk in the park, a tea at home, my ukulele quickly became my ever present companion.
My Ukulele offered so many exciting advantage over my beloved guitar, more affordable, happier, more colourful, easier to travel with, cheaper to maintain, I also noticed that ukulele draws people, it makes them smile. More than once I engaged in passionate music conversation with total stranger thanks to my new friend because everything in a ukulele says: "I am cool, I am open minded, I take life with a smile".
But don't get me wrong a Ukulele can take you far in the musical world.It's not because everyone can play it that you can't do advanced stuff with it. I have heard beautiful classical pieces played with great gusto. After pondering on it, if were to summarise what a ukulele does to you, I would say that it brings forward the musician you don't know you can be. Each ukulele player, beginner or maestro, has his own universe, tricks, chords, and fun. Recently I have started leading a Ukulele circle at Gandharva Loka, 6pm every Friday and all of this has become very evident. It is an instrument that everyone can enjoy.
I could write more about my Ukulele adventure but honestly there comes a point where one just has to experience. So, if you get a chance to drop by the shop, a few minutes will be enough to teach you your first chord progression. And remember a ukulele is not just an instrument it's a tool to bring happiness!

Cost of living
Through time
Prices fall, prices rise, inflation and wages fluctuate all over the place – but what does it actually mean? By adjusting 100 years of prices for inflation to the present day, and projecting prices in to the future, we can see how the cost of living in Australia has really changed..Get started
Weekly Incomes
Average wages in Australia have gone up by considerably more than inflation over the past 100 years, and are set to do the same again in the years to come. It may sound like good news for the wallet, but how far does that money stretch?
% of income
Spent on rent
Although rents have risen at a rate of more than 20 times inflation over the past 100 years, they have corresponded with even higher rises in wages, meaning the renter of today, and of the future, is far better off than those in the first half of the 20th century. However, rents have gone up a bit in relation to wages since the 90's, when they were at their lowest.
Spend $6.44
House Price
House prices have gone up at a much faster rate than both inflation and wages, meaning it would take much longer to save up for a deposit today – and even longer still in the future – than it would have done 100 years ago.
By 2030
It could take more than
5 yearsto save a deposit
The price of petrol is currently an important issue for Australia. It's fairly safe to say that someone on the average wage would have been unable to afford their own car in 1910, and potentially in 1950 also, but a look at the average price per litre in the 1980's onwards – when it was first recorded as part of the Australian Bureau of Statistics' averages – shows that even if it looks like it's gone up by quite a lot in recent memory, it's actually come down in real terms.
Shopping Basket
Australians spend about 10% of their wages on food. In 2010, that stretched to a comfortable $90 a week, but in 1910, it would have amounted to about $0.32. The percentage of the weekly wage spent on covering the basics has varied a lot over the years, just take a look at some of these examples:Shopping values
Shopping basket
Two litres of milk
The price of milk has been all over the place: two litres in 1910 would have cost the equivalent of $26 today, but now most places charge just over a dollar a litre. Although prices are set to rise again in the future, inflation means that it should take a smaller chunk out of the budget.
Shopping basket
1lb of Tea
1lb is actually quite a lot, but bulk-buying products such as tea was a lot more common earlier in the 20th Century. Apart from a period of low prices in the 50's and relatively low prices in the 90s, the price of tea has risen quite a lot in real terms more recently.
Shopping basket
Making a cup of tea
But what does that actually mean per cup? Let's take a look.
The recommended amount of tea per cup is 2.5g. There is 453 grams in 1lb, making 181 cups of tea.
Using about 20ml a cup will make you around 90 cups of tea with two litres of milk.
So dividing the price of tea by 181 and the price of milk by 90 shows you the rough price of a cup of tea.
Shopping basket
The price of bread has fluctuated a lot as well and, unlike milk, is currently at its most expensive. Although the price is set to rise, it's likely it will eat in to the food budget a bit less by 2030.
Shopping basket
Butter has behaved a bit differently – the price has come down much more regularly in
relation to wages as it has become less and less of a luxury item.
Shopping basket
The average price of meat is a bit harder to pin down as there are so many variables in type, quality and quantity. But from looking at various averages over the years for typical spends on a kilogram, you can see how the relative price has lowered as meat has become less of a luxury.
Shopping basket
Let's assume:
• An average of 20 slices per loaf – ten sandwiches.
• The butter will make sandwiches for a family of four for a week – 28 sandwiches.
• The meat stretches to one round of four sandwiches.
So dividing the average prices of each by those numbers gives you the typical cost of making a sandwich:
Once again, the falling price of once-luxury items means costs are coming down for some of today's basic necessities – it's almost as little as a third of the cost to make a sandwich in 2010 than it was in 1910.
Current as at 2014 levels indicated by Reserve Bank of Australia - www.rba.gov.au

I think the profile of the nRF51 is about to take a big leap forward, as the previous closed hardware design for the BBC Micro-bit, which has been rolled out around a million school children in the UK, has not been released on GitHub https://github.com/microbit-foundation/microbit-reference-design
There is a press release http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-37682405 indicating that the micro bit foundation will be encouraging the use of the design throughout the world.
I am not a lawyer, but the license appears to allow anyone to use these designs.
So if this is correct, I imagine that a lot of Chinese manufacturers would be interested in producing versions of this, because at the moment, they are only available in the UK and the cost is fairly high (£13)
Which would be good news if the price was brought down in line with boards like the Arduino Uno, or my favourite STM32 boards.
Update. May 2017
These reference designs appear to be for a binary compatible nRF51 board not the actual BBC Microbit board as given to students in the UK.
The board is much bigger and uses an nRF51 module rather than the nRF51822 MCU

Consider how your cosmetics contribute to your appearance, not just immediately but over time. Are your cleansers nourishing or are they stripping the natural oils from your skin and hair? The heat and chemical processing you put your hair and nails through takes a toll on their strength. Over time they become brittle, dry and prone to breakage. Even worse, some hair dyes are known carcinogens. Prioritize sleep. Your overloaded schedule probably eats into the only "spare" time you have: your beauty sleep. And those dark under-eye circles are the least of your worries. You can see the proof looking back at you in the mirror after a rough night's sleep. Missing out on a few hours of sleep sets off a cascade of hormonal changes that negatively affect how your cells function and how you feel throughout the day.
Give yourself a realistic bedtime. Put your tablet down, charge your phone, close your laptop, and turn off the television a couple of hours before your bedtime to get your mind ready for sleep.
Overexposure to the sun, smoke, airborne toxins, and the chlorine in water can lead to a loss of luster and elasticity that ages your appearance. Freezing cold weather tends to be dry, leading to cracked, even bleeding, hands, lips, and cuticles. Smoking is one of the surest ways to age your skin. Exposure to tobacco smoke decreases your production of collagen and damages your skin's elasticity. If you want to take better care of yourself, start exploring natural ways to keep your routine. I know beauty products are expensive. You don't have to throw out your entire makeup bag today-start small. Swap in new, natural products whenever you run low on your normal cosmetics. Work your way through your hair, skin, and nail care products and rituals. Consider dry brushing before your next shower.
Dry brushing will help loosen dead skin and push your lymph fluid back into circulation. When you bathe, limit your exposure to excessively hot water in the shower. The next time you bathe, ask yourself if you're washing your hair and skin out of habit, or if you genuinely need to wash, rinse, and repeat. You might just need a thorough rinse rather than a good scrubbing. For healthy nails, try to limit your showers to 15 minutes to keep your nails strong. Excessively long showers temporarily over saturate nails and make them more prone to bending and tearing. Immediately after bathing, make sure you moisturize with organic products to seal in moisture. Don't forget your hands, feet, and elbows.
Proper nutrition should be your first thought when you want to grow healthy hair, skin, and nails. B-complex vitamins are not only essential for overall health, they're vital for nail and hair strength. For truly remarkable hair, skin, and nails you should take an inside-out approach to beauty. Eat foods rich in beauty-boosting vitamins and take supplements to fill in the gaps. Once you've nourished yourself from the inside, you can shift focus to the outside with Honeydew range of natural products. It's a luxury face cream formulated with essential oils and handcrafted in small batches so you can put your best face forward.
