Rockabilly Kids Toothbrush
Reviewed by Lorraine Knight
I received the Rockabilly Kids toothbrush to review. The first thing I liked about the packaging was how easy it was to open. Most toothbrushes take a pair of scissors and scratches over your hands to just remove the toothbrush from the plastic packaging.
Inside the plastic casing was the Rockabilly Kids toothbrush and 3 spare heads, a brilliant idea to encourage regular changing of worn down heads every 3 months as advised by dentists. Our toothbrush was blue and called Astronaut Andy – I don't know if it is available in different colours, ours was in blue.
The packaging claims 'you can't knock 'em down'. The toothbrush that can't fall over! We were eager to test this claim and a toy from my youth came to mind. We rocked it and tried lying it down but it still stood up after swaying so yes I totally agree with the statement that it can't fall over.
The actual toothbrush is weighted at the base and feels quite heavy but my son never complained it was too heavy to hold compared to his old toothbrush. In fact the toothbrush has an ergonomic handle designed for small hands.
It has a picture of an astronaut on it floating in space. Perfect to attract little children's attention. The heads are very easy to change.
I would recommend this toothbrush for ease of opening, spare heads and the fact it will stay germ free by standing up on the side of the sink.
As I said, we received the Astronaut Andy design but there are 5 other different designs available on the Rockabilly Kids website.

This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group™ and Rubbermaid Bento Organizers; all my opinions and the idea for this adorable teacher gift are my own! #pmedia #HolidayBento http://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcO.
I have been waiting for this day for weeks now! It's time to share this year's Christmas teacher gifts with you!! If you've been around shaken together for any length of time, you probably already know that I absolutely LOVE planning themed teacher gifts: You're Worth a Mint, Orange You Glad It's Almost Summer and a Pun-y Fruit Filled Fruit Bowl!
And this year's gifts are no exception! Even though we live in Florida and snow is just something we see on TV, Kaleb's teachers are going to be dreaming of a White Christmas this year!! Yep, it's a White Christmas teacher gift for us this year that is nearly overflowing with snowflakes and sweet treats and things to pamper our teachers!
And may all your Christmas teacher gifts be white …
Now, before we jump to the bright white treats tucked inside, don't let the khaki container fool you. It is no ordinary basket or box. Nope! It is a super cool new Rubbermaid Bento Organizer that I picked up in the home section at Target! Seriously, if Rubbermaid & Target aren't a match made in heaven, I don't know what would be! (You, lucky ducks, can use this coupon to save a little cash when you run out to Target for your Rubbermaid Bento organizers!)
I have often professed my love of organizing – remember when I organized three disaster zones in our home? And these Rubbermaid Bento Organizers have cool flex dividers that you can pop open or closed depending on what you want to organize or store inside. Pop the the dividers out to corral little things or push them closed to make room for bigger things. So, how do you Bento?!
For our White Christmas teacher gifts, I popped all four dividers closed to make room for all the {mostly} white themed goodies tucked inside! Seriously – ALL of this stuff fit + a white snowflake bucket that I added at the last minute!
Okay, sing it with me to the tune of the 12 Days of Christmas …
In the White Christmas teacher gift, my student gave to me:
- Candy Cane candy bar
- Artic White hot chocolate
- A clear glass mug
- Hand soap & sanitizer
- White breath mints
- A polar bear ornament hand picked by Kaleb
- Two ingredient hand scrub {tutorial coming soon!}
- A white snowflake picture frame ornament
- White nail polish (great for French manicures!)
- One of my favorite lip balms
- To-do Sticky Notes
- And a pretty silver and white pencil
{And breathe!} Okay, that was a little bit of a stretch, but fun, right?
Really and truly, I could not be more thankful for our amazing teachers. I love honoring their hard work and long hours … even if it is only with hand picked ornaments, some of my favorite things (lip balm, chocolate, office supplies), small treats that bring a smile after a long day and a sweet hand written note from our family! I love watching Kaleb's face as he lugs in his teacher gifts each year, the anticipation as he waits for his teachers get to school and hoping that his teachers will love our gifts as much as we loved putting them together for them!
If you look close, I even found white shredded paper (love that Target Dollar Spot!) to mimic snow to add in the organizer and I tied a glittery white snowflake around our White Christmas teacher gift. I'm so thrilled with how they came out and I love that Kaleb's teachers can reuse the Rubbermaid Bento organizer in their home or classroom!
More fun things to give!

Scrum and Visual Studio Team System Add-ins
This tip helps you to get a better understanding of what Scrum is, how it works, and how two of its add-ins work together to bring Scrum into the Visual Studio environment.
Scrum is a holistic approach to product development that is supposed to increase the speed and flexibility of the development process. Sports aficionados will recognize "scrum" as a rugby term; it is choice to describe a development approach was deliberate and is intended to describe how development teams try "to go the distance as a unit, passing the ball back and forth" (not half-bad as a means of explaining the apparent chaos that rugby often presents to its spectators). Scrum didn't really become a development concept until 1995, when Jeff Sutherland and Ken Schwaber teamed up to codify the method (and the term) that is so ably documented in the book Schwaber wrote with Mike Beedle in 2001, entitled Agile Software Development with SCRUM (Prentice Hall, ISBN: 0130576349).
Scrum is as much a kind of worldview as it is a specific development methodology, and it has garnered adherents in companies as big as Cisco, in the academic and research communities, and in "smart-guy startups" all over the globe. Scrum is perhaps best understood as a collection of development practices and predefined roles, including a ScrumMaster who runs the process and acts like a project manager, a Product Owner who represents stakeholders, and a Team, which includes developers, documenters, testers, and so forth. Development occurs in 15-30 intervals called sprints (the actual number of days is decided by the development team) during which the team builds an increment of what is called "potential shippable" (often translated as "usable") software. The feature set for a sprint come from a product backlog, a prioritized list of outstanding high-level work requirements, and are chosen during a spring planning meeting, when the product owner informs the team about items from the product backlog he wants to see completed. During a spring, the backlog remains inviolate so that requirements for each sprint are set in stone. Scrum is easy to learn and requires little effort or overhead to start using, which explains its exploding and continuing popularity.
Scrum and Visual Studio Team system add-ins
Our two Visual Studio Team System add-ins work together to bring Scrum into the Visual Studio environment. The first of these tools is called Scrum for Team System, and it is a free agile software development methodology add-in for Visual Studio Team System. It was developed by Conchango, a UK-based development consulting firm, working in tandem with Ken Schwaber -- one of the "fathers" of Scrum. It is also supported by a whole raft of courses to teach the ScrumMaster role, and to impart agile development skills and knowledge. For the purposes of this brief exposition, this add-in is what brings Scrum capability into the existing Visual Studio project management and methodology framework.
The second add-in is called Scrum Dashboard; it is a CodePlex project that delivers a graphical user interface to Scrum for Team System, to replace the typical whiteboard that is used to run Scrum projects and to simplify interactions with Scrum artifacts inside the Visual Studio environment, usually on Team Foundation Server 2008. This dashboard provides an Ajax-based Web interface that works with both IE and Firefox. It is sprint-centric so that it innately understands how to handle daily work inside the sprint context. You can use it to create, update, and manage product backlogs, and it provides color-coding for backlog items to display progress and to flag unplanned work. It provides metrics and statistics for teams, along with a sprint burndown chart that keeps progress and activity visible to all team members, product owners and the ScrumMaster.
Those who work with Visual Studio Team System and who either already use, or want to use, Scrum as a methodology should find this combination a one-two punch that delivers the goods inside the Visual Studio environment. It should also be of interest to Visual Studio development teams who want to learn more about Scrum, or to see if it might help them better manage their development processes.

|Transformation of the 5q- syndrome to acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a report of two cases and review of the literature.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21487529 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with an isolated deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5 (5q- syndrome) is a distinct subtype of MDS with an indolent course that rarely transforms to acute leukemia. Deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5 has also been reported in rare cases of de novo B-lymphoblastic leukemia. We present two cases of 5q- syndrome with a similar and unusual course of transformation to lymphoblastic leukemia while on Lenalidomide. These two patients achieved an initial response; however, later acquired a second cytogenetic abnormality, became refractory to treatment and evolved into acute leukemia. At the time of transformation, both patients had recurrence of the 5q- abnormality. Review of the literature and the mechanisms of transformation of the 5q-syndrome into an acute leukemia are discussed. Although the relationship between the events in our cases remains unclear, the intriguing similarity between the two cases raises a question whether immune modulators can alter the natural course of MDS. To our knowledge, no similar cases were previously reported in the literature.

A Non-Reducible Text in the Service of a Non-Reducible God
The thing about a stop sign, though, is that I never imagine a person behind the text.I don't think of an author or it doesn't make me ponder the meaning of my life in relation to the person who authorized it. I doubt this is a maxim related to texts, but their might be some sort of correlation here--the more reducible a text, the less relational it is.
So, I'm thinking that a text designed for relationship, especially a relationship over time and space, has to be more porous to meaning than a stop sign.And this might especially be true if a text were hoping to serve relationships across time and space. In other words, certain texts have the ability to communicate beyond their immediate circumstances. My grocery list from Monday is a perishable text and fairly reducible in meaning. No one will be reading it tomorrow, much less 2000 years from now, even though as grocery lists go it's a pretty good one. For a text to continue to speak to new audiences, it has to be fairly open or porous to meaning. And this might especially be true if the relationship to be secured by the text has as its subject a non-reducible subject. Like God.
Now, its conceivable that a text speaking for God might serve the same kind of purpose as a stop sign--to get people to obey certain signs.Then we might want a reducible text. But if the text speaking for God was primarily interested in sustaining across time and space relationship with a holy God, a non-reducible God, then that text might have to be fairly porous, open, interpretable, relational, or dynamic in its capacity to make meanings.
I would submit that this is what we have with the Bible: a non-reducible text in the service of relationship with a holy God.
This is not, however, how many of us have been taught to regard or use or study the Bible. Ironically, we have thought that for it to speak for God it has to be reducible to one meaning, to one interpretation. We think it has to be like a stop sign. I have a spate of books on my bookshelf dedicated to the pursuit of making the Bible hold still. I think this says more about us, particularly those of us conditioned by the modern story of human mastery, than it does about the Bible.
So, I'm trying to rethink all of this without overreacting, without throwing the baby out with the bathwater, without reducing things to an either/or approach. Stay tuned.

Good use of the stop sign as an analogy, esp with the idea of an author behind it. I certainly don't see the Bible in that light.
I have many of the same books you do. They worked for me for years but now have me wondering. Can the Word of God be more dynamic than we want to allow it to be?
Looking forward to more on this.

Love the post Mark.
It parallels some of my thoughts recently about the overarching nature of the Bible text. One non-reducible way to think about the biblical text is to view it as the 'Periodic Table' of spiritual elements--the raw material God gave us to build the spiritual world he intended for our habitation. The kingdom of God.
Just as surely as the earth contains all of these basic and varied elements he MEANT for us to discover, explore, use, and build with, the word and the Word contains all of the elements we need and are meant to take and shape and craft in our own place and time. Not to suit ourselves, but to suit God AND ourselves--to suit 'The Relationship'. We didn't perceive glass from sand or steel from ore until we had made progress to certain levels in our development. I like to think of theologians and other spiritual leaders as the 'spiritual scientists' that help us achieve new levels of accomplishment and proficiency in spirituality and Christlikeness (Eph 4).
New discoveries in scripture are the new 'raw material' and how to 'refine' them or 'synthesize' them, then combine them holistically to build new and remarkable lives, facets of the kingdom of God.
Jesus is our 'prototype'. Well, Adam was our prototype, but he chose poorly and ceased to be the 'right stuff'.
Jesus, our second Adam, chose the Father and so proved to be made of the right stuff. God took the same raw material he has given us, and produced Jesus our Lord--a true son of the kingdom of God who grew to be its Lord. And He has told us we can 'build' the same kind of life and kingdom in our time if we let him help us.
"Nothing we purpose to do will be impossible for us..." Genesis 11
(Come to think of it, Walter Brueggeman even looks like a scientist... You would too, if only you would start preaching in a lab coat and using a clip board to hold your Bible! ;o)
BTW... I'm working on a version of the Periodic Table of Spiritual Elements
- November 21, 2011 at 7:23 AM
- Mark Love said...
Ray, Thanks for adding to the discussion. As you probably know, I like environmental metaphors for talking about many aspects of faith. I might steal this periodic table thing. I like the diversity your image brings. I do want, though, something a little more moving through time-ish. I want for their to be a way for some of these elements to go inert and for new ones to come into existence. That's why I tend toward narrative metaphors.FWIW

Following the recent shooting of a gay man, the Tourism Association of Puerto Vallarta has stressed that the resort remains one of the safest destinations for the LGBTQ visitor, not only in Mexico, but on an international level.
Carl Blea, a U.S. military veteran, was shot in the thigh while holding hands with his husband, Mark Lange, in the Lazaro Cardenas Park shortly after the couple left a nightclub in the early hours of March 26.
According to the two men, both real estate professionals from Palm Springs, California, the assailant shouted at them before firing a shot and running off. He did not demand any money or personal belongings, nor were there witnesses to the incident, they told news sources north of the border.
However, local news reports suggested theft to be the motive of the attack and that the assailant shot Blea because he resisted an assault. This version of the incident has been disputed by the two men, who told The Desert Sun, a Palm Springs newspaper, that they had no interaction with the shooter.
Writing on Facebook, Lange described the incident as a "hate crime" and not a botched robbery.
A report on NoticiasPV.com, however, quoted a security guard who said he saw the two men arguing with the assailant before the shot was fired.
In a statement, the Tourism Association of Puerto Vallarta said "these types of incidents are rare and extremely isolated." The missive continued: "Last year, more than 17,000 LGBTQ international visitors came to Puerto Vallarta for Vallarta Pride alone, without incident. It is estimated that, in general, about 20% of visitors to Puerto Vallarta, specifically in the city's Romantic Zone, are part of the LGBTQ community and safely enjoy the destination, again without any incident."
According to NoticiasPV.com, paramedics arrived quickly at the scene of the shooting. Blea was taken to the Medasist Hospital in a private ambulance. The couple have since returned to California.

Our Certified Caregivers come to your home to provide your pets the most effective care when you're not there! Bring your furniture & home decor Wed – Sat via July 8th throughout consignment hours & we will PURCHASE it OR consign it; the choice is yours! We had a fantastic trip in barcelona and one of many causes was the home to home apartment which we selected to stay in. we loved our staing at the condominium very a lot!!!
Now we have canine walking, pet sitting, look after special needs pets (older animals, pets who simply had surgery, and so on.), poop scooping and more. Very useful, pleasant welcome after the reserving was made, and on arrival in Barcelona.
Most consignment shops require you to ship images & schedule appointments to consign; not Home2Home! That having been said, I am very impressed with the standard of the pieces that they accept for consignment. After we ship furniture to your home, we'll choose up your consignment furniture!
This store really has a monopoly on the Dayton consignment market so I do go there on a reasonably common foundation however I kid you not after I say out of all the occasions I've gone out and in their doorways, not once has any worker mentioned one word to me!
In case your furniture is a current type, clean, & in wonderful situation, simply convey it to our consignment area anytime Mon – Sat between 10:00 and 5:30! In ultimo l'appartamento è posizionato in maniera strategica a 5 min dalla metro e dagli autobus per l'aeroporto… insomma che dire, sarà il nostro punto di riferimento per i prossimi viaggi a Barcelona.

Savinelli Tortuga 305 6mm Filter Pipe Review Part 2
I was excited and apprehensive about smoking the Tortuga. Its such a nice pipe I almost didn't want to "spoil" it! But a pipe is for smoking so I put thoughts of scorching the rim and burning the bowl to one side and unpacked the tobacco I ordered from Black Swan to break this pipe in.
I would be using a 50/50 blend of Gawith Hoggarths Kendal Black Cavendish and McConnell Oriental Turkish Blend. These are classed as blending tobacco's, but can be enjoyed on their own, particularly the slow burning Black Cavendish. The Turkish burns hotter and quicker so combining the two should make for a long lasting pleasurable smoke. Both arrived in what I would call perfect smoking condition, in as much as there was no need to air dry either before blending.

Posters were distributed by joyful volunteers and posted in libraries, coffee shop bulletin boards, skating rinks and retail staff rooms and seemed to hit the right note in everyone who saw the invitation. So many people recognized the event posters as something that called out to them.
The R/Evolution neared capacity as close to 150 seekers of truth mingled with those that wanted to share the pure knowledge that is part of our human evolution.
Artwork by Adrian K. from Burlington class – 'Condor Woman' was displayed at this event
Actual tales of transformation of local residents were beautifully presented by local filmmakers Ahilan and Jon. Yoann Freget of France sang "Imagine" by John Lennon in the film which concluded with excerpts from free concerts he gave in Halton and the Greater Toronto Area including our classes, theatres and high schools. Key talks by the founder of Sahaja Yoga, Shri Mataji, were profound and filled the room with vibrational energy and permeating peace. The wonderful energy was so powerful many of us felt like we were floating in a blissful state. As Shri Mataji has shared, "Divinity is not a fashion. It is the need of your being. You have to become that."
Innocent and unobstructed by conditionings, the children sat attentively for the meditation and films. The musical band and Hema dancing Kuchipudi had kids dancing in a natural, unselfconscious way. I had my friend's daughter Gia on my lap who was happy to raise her kundalini with me, and later, practice beautiful hand gestures with Hema at the back of the gym. The musicians set the rhythm with beautiful drums, voices, and became an instrument for transforming and clearing chakras through our sixth sense.
Once the kundalini energy is awakened through self-realization, vibrational music can heal us from the inside, out. Paintings from local talented artists of all ages depicting an Angel, the Kundalini energy, the Thousand Petal Lotus and other works seemed to transport the venue into a meditative and interactive art gallery.
Proffesor Dr. Mishra from McMaster University began his casual lecture with a first hand account of his conversation with Shri Mataji about the Neuro Science of Sahaja Yoga and how it works out all kinds of human health and behavioural problems. The tangible feeling of the whole R/Evolution felt like an infinite and mounting happiness that we did not want to end! Attendees left reluctantly, as there was still so much more to share from Dr. Mishra and Chad Danyluck (our guest from University of Toronto). So stay tuned, as we co-ordinate continued talks from our Scientists in the upcoming wednesday classes in Burlington at the Brant Hills Community Centre. Souvenirs of candles, bookmarks, and informative colourful posters were given to everyone who attended. Free Sahaja Yoga classes are held world-wide in 140 countries.
Hema – Kuchipudi dance performer and fellow yogini meditator
Thanks also goes to France who initiated the same R/Evolution on a much larger scale with 450 youth leaders from around the world. Esteemed guests from UNESCO and other influential personalities were in attendance held in Paris, under the stained glass dome of Le Printemps department store. Burlington simultaneously held Ontario's R/Evolution to introduce Science, Music, the Arts and Spirituality as an integrating force, in the right equation, known as Sahaja Yoga. Sahaja Yoga really is the transformative meditation and the proof can be felt throughout the human nervous system as a cool river or breeze of pleasant vibrations. It's sure to put a smile on your face and expand your capacity to feel joy, love and achieve the peaceful "yoga" state everyone longs for.
As the awareness of our spiritual self grows, the journey in the present begins to reveal the bliss of the fourth dimension. Many of us have already felt proof of our connection to the collective consciousness in thousands of ways. It is like a frequency that we can be in tune with when our mind is still. Dr. Karl Gustav Jung, a realized soul, was the first to provide proofs of the existence of the collective consciousness. When mental barriers are broken within our limited minds on a collective scale, then all of mankind evolves to the next level.
We are all, as Shri Mataji has taught, "part and parcel of the whole."
Ontario Bhajan Band – led by Sunita Jaggi (all members of this musical group are sahaja yoga meditation practitioners from Great Toronto Area)
Together, we can reach the realm of unlimited human potential.
The roots of the tree of life is inside our beings, and like a seed, with a little nourishment from free Sahaja Meditation classes, can grow and blossom. It plugs us in to the infinite, all pervading power of the universe by supplying the connection. This is the greatest discovery of our lifetime. To discover the powers we each have inside sheds light on our "outside" lives and gives us the tools to diffuse stress, create a balanced perspective and nurture happiness. The R/Evolution continues to gain momentum in communities across the globe with many more free events and classes to come.
More Artwork, VIDEOS, photos and Impressions will be presented in our future articles rooted from this wonderful "Ontario R/Evolution" event. Now, it's your turn to let us know how was it for you. 🙂

What is Full Stack Developer?
Recently there have been many talks about Full Stack Developers? What exactly this term is? The word "stack" is meant to imply layers, i.e. each piece of the technology builds off the previous. Like all metaphors this is imperfect, but I guess nobody wanted to call it the "set", "bundle" or "suite". The "stack" also includes, of course, HTML and related technologies (these days CSS, Javascript,[…]Read more

Different types of laminates and their uses
So you've just started a new project, and now it's time to go to print. But have you thought about how you'd like your work to be finished? Did you consider that your project could use some UV protection or graffiti resistance? Below, we have highlighted your lamination options and their common uses.
Lamination is the process of applying a thin layer of film or liquid coating to a material, to enhance and protect the printed matter. There is a wide range of laminates available, all presenting different finishes.
UV Lamination
Liquid lamination, also known as UV coating, is an excellent way to add fade durability. This coating protects from moisture, dirt, fingerprints, and sun exposure. This options for lamination is used on all our aluminum signs unless otherwise specified.
Popular Applications: Any & All Signs and Decals
UV + Anti-graffiti
This laminate is an overlaminate designed to protect digitally printed images and signs from a wide variety of stains and chemicals including paint and permanent marker. Graffiti can be easily and repeatedly removed using common economical cleaners without damaging the surface of the laminate. I-lam is the best option for long-term outdoor signage with limited anti-graffiti properties and anti-fade properties.
Popular Applications: Signage in high graffiti areas
UV + Abrasion
Lexan laminate is a great option for signage that takes a beating. It has a velvet finish that reduces glare, is scratch and tear resistant, and can handle heat. However, because continuous exposure to UV rays tend to discolour the film, it isn't recommended for long-term outdoor use.
Popular Applications: Quad Stands, Decals With a lot of Handling, Large Indoor Displays
Dry Erase
This laminate is a dry erase clear laminate, that is easy to write on and erase. It has a UV hard coat and a clear gloss surface that safeguards against ghosting or staining from dry erase markers. Dry Erase also has anti-graffiti qualities, that can cleanly remove the accidental use of a permanent marker with the help of rubbing alcohol.
Popular Applications: Charity Cheques, Task Board, Incident Board
Partial Lamination
A clear overlay protects writing on the tag from dirt, grease, moisture and alterations. Lift overlay, write message, peel off the liner, and press overlay over the tag.
Popular Applications: Car Seal Valve Tags
If you're looking for a quote or you're unsure of the best solution for your lamination needs, get in touch.

Spend Your Time Running The Business!
Spend Your Time Running The Business
Running a business is insoluble; material requires the skill, enthusiasm and agony of its owners and managers for the business to typify basically thriving. Since a offshoot, one of the gloss assets of bit piddling business is therefrom the time of these owners and managers. Following seeking feedback from the SME community present is surprising to catch honorable how much time owners still spend on tasks conforming for accounting and business administration in comparison to the skilful running and marketing of the business. Spend Your Time Running The Business
This ultimately collision in owners struggling to grow their business cache most of their time being allocated to completing the never ending tasks of today. All businesses should effort and dedicate focused time on their skilful aims and business gain; however, this requires a structured time management animus to set out that business considering usual tasks carry forward to appear as wrapped up to the required standard. Time management remains one of the most demanding aspects of running installment business. Ace could imitate disastrous backslash for portion business innkeeper that spends parlous much time on business intention over regular accounting and business administration. Whilst exceedingly much time spent on business admin and accounting onus limit time available for marketing and running the business since hampering the enlarged word growing prospects of the business.
The time management conundrum is solved by purchasing accounting software. Proficient isn ' t word more of note in a young business than having a healthy balance sheet and a sustainable cash flow into the business. Accounting software allows owners of SMEs to retain a firm grip on company financials whilst demanding in fact less time than would retain been required manually completing and submitting forms. Anybody who is sane versed in completing review returns and VAT returns will flip for the time these onus cut to advance correctly. The time freed up from the conformation stuffing liability in consequence copy spent on growing the business strategically and marketing the business to scheduled clients. This reallocation of time from cast stuffing to growing the business blame symbolize the disparity between strike and failing of an SME.
On this basis indubitable is hard to regard why more owners refuge ' t invested in an accounting software carton? After sense some research in the SME community we get going that some owners mistakenly perceived accounting software to serve as by oneself suitable for stay / large businesses. When asked about the benefits of accounting software the small business owners we asked focused on the large scale management of corporate expenses and regulatory approved accrual of corporate accounts; obviously not relevant to small businesses. Whilst these benefits may be true for large organisations; accounting software is equally beneficial, if not more, in the small business world. The benefits of accounting software for a small business, as discussed above, are more about freeing up time and ensuring that the company financials are well structured. Spend Your Time Running The Business
Another misperception of accounting software is that it is expensive – this simply isn ' t true. It is true that there are a range of prices, but as all things in life, it depends what features you are looking from your product. You can pick up a product that simply focuses on general ledger, accounts payable and accounts receivable. These products whilst not very expensive will produce very professional accounts and be more than adequate for most small businesses. However, companies with slightly larger income streams that would like the added functionality of features such as payroll, job costing and banking integration can expect to pay more for these additional features.
Whilst accounting software does add value and structure to a small business it is imperatively important that a small business owner buys an appropriate package to meet their business needs. There are many accounting software solutions in the market and if an SME buys a product purely based on brand or recommendation it will likely end up with an expensive, feature rich product that is never optimised. This all makes sense, however, many small business owners have no idea what their requirements are. Below are some accounting software features that are standard for a small businesses to consider when buying their first accounting software package.
General Ledger – This is ability to formulate simple summary accounts from the income received and costs incurred through company expenses. General Ledger will allow business owners to complete annual returns quickly and simply.
Accounts Receivable – This just allows owners of businesses to help with the ordering process of sales. For example, creating and sending invoices, accepting payments and dealing with the taking of moneys. Being unorganised in the process of collecting customer payments is a one way street to business problems. All small businesses should seek help in organising this area of the business.
Accounts Payable – Gives businesses the ability to make purchases in an organised manner. Provides the ability to create purchase orders, print cheques and complete vendor checks. Company expenses are as important to profitability as income – once again making sure that these outgoings are well organised is critical.
Small businesses would benefit greatly from purchasing an accounting software package both in terms of freeing up time to be spent on running the business and having 100 % confidence in the financial health of their business. If you run a small business and haven ' t got an effective accounting software package then investigate your business requirements and get one today!. Spend Your Time Running The Business

We fucked on the back of his Tercel. The hood was so hot that it nearly singed our thighs, the inside like a sauna from being out in the California sun all day. Even after the sky darkened to a Prussian blue, the trees of Woodward Park in silhouette against it, the air was as hot and humid as when the sun was right overhead. The memory of the day's heat clung to the car, my ass scorching as I sat on the edge of the trunk, my panties dangling around my ankle, Jeremy's hands tight on my hips. We'd been sticky with sweat before we even got to the park, and it cascaded off our bodies as he fucked me. I had to grab his hair just to keep my hands from slipping off of him.
There was still a week to go before I went off to college, but the air was charged with desperation to make that week last as long as possible, like we could push my departure away if we just kept screwing. We fucked a lot that summer, after we graduated from high school, when his dad was getting shitfaced at the bar, when my parents went to Michigan for a family reunion, after we went out for pizza, after we went to a movie, whenever we could snatch the time. Beds were nice, but we'd gotten used to Jeremy's Tercel, the upholstery on his back seat cracking and tearing from our frequent fucks back there. All we had to do was sneak into Woodward Park through the rear gate – they never locked it – and I'd tear open a condom while Jeremy parked in a small lot, trees blocking us from the road so no one could catch us.
The weatherman on TV never shut up about it being the hottest summer on record. It was like the weather was trying to push me out to the coast, out to Pearl Springs, before I was ready to go. I didn't think that I loved Jeremy, but I hadn't felt love for anyone yet, at least not what I'd thought love was supposed to be. Still, his poetry was brilliant, he pissed off my parents, and the sex filled a part of me that I didn't even know I had until that first night in the back of his Tercel. I'd fucked another boyfriend, and had a couple of one-night stands before we hooked up, but something changed that first moment Jeremy entered me, like everything that came before was just playing doctor.
He couldn't come to Pearl Springs with me. Boys like him just didn't go to good schools, and he was lucky just to get into Cal State Fresno after all the skipping we'd done senior year. Some C's crept into my report card that last semester, but I'd already been accepted at Pearl Springs University and other schools. I got in at some colleges in the Midwest and New England, but they didn't offer me any money. Pearl Springs gave me a full-ride scholarship. Maybe they saw more promise in my portfolio, or maybe both my parents being alums greased the wheels for me. Part of me wanted to leave California so I could get as far away from my parents as possible, but between staying close to Jeremy, and not having to pay my way – my parents wouldn't co-sign for any loans – Pearl Springs was tolerable.
I tightened my legs around Jeremy's body, crossing my ankles behind his back as we moaned and groaned our way towards climax. The air thrummed with buzzing sounds, high-pitched hiccups and cries from animals either fucking along with us or begging for some animal to come fuck them. Every time we screwed that summer, it felt like each climax was harder than the one before. It must have been the knowledge of our coming separation, that undercurrent making each fuck more desperate than the last one.
My back arched as the first rush of orgasm rippled through me, Jeremy growling as he came too. I rode the waves as long as I could, shivers coursing through my body, my hands slipping off his head from all the sweat. I laced my fingers together behind his neck so tightly that they hurt, just so I wouldn't fall.
Still, I felt empty as I came down from my climax. I had a family dinner Sunday afternoon, and my mother wasn't about to let me take Jeremy to it. He started at Cal State Fresno the day after, and between that and his work, and me needing to pack, I figured that we might grab a pizza but that would be it. That fuck would have to last us both a long time. It already felt like it wouldn't be enough.
I slid over after he pulled out of me so we could sit on the back of his car. He offered me a Marlboro from his pack – I'd been smoking for a few years – and our cigarettes trailed gray smoke up to a sky so dark that I could barely make out the outline of the trees. Every August I could remember, as the days passed by, it was hard not to think about school starting soon, but that August felt so different. High school had started back up a few days earlier, and Jeremy would start at Cal State Fresno in a couple of days, but I still had that week to go, and even then I'd be going to school over a hundred miles away. It was like I had to remind myself that I was still going to school, that I hadn't escaped that autumn-to-spring cycle that traps youth, the first of so many regimens designed to deaden kids' minds, make them think that they only had a short space of time to themselves because "that's just how the world is," as Mom loved to say.

I like the idea: the product known as Boxee made available on a standalone box. Fantastic concept! Only one tiny, itty, bitty problem — where's the content? Okay, let me rephrase that. Where is the content that will compel me to buy a Boxee setup appliance? Here is the problem as I see it.
Boxee beat out Roku, in the idea of "channels" that developers could offer to the end user. Even in Boxee's earliest days, they were spot on with this concept. But Roku was a setup box first, arguably the biggest piece of the puzzle. Finally, Boxee is joining Roku in this realm, despite being first with the idea of developer created content channels before Roku.
Now unlike Boxee, Roku has a de facto item that Boxee needs desperately: Amazon Video On-Demand. Both Boxee and Roku already offer Netflix. Both now offer oodles of no-name content channels no one actually watches. But last time I looked (today), Roku is alone in its offering for Amazon On-Demand. And let me tell ya, this is a family favorite in my household. If we didn't rent the Blu-ray from Netflix yet, we're watching the latest movies in HD via Amazon.
Speaking for myself, I think Boxee, as a product, is very cool. It's open source, cross platform, and I appreciate the effort that has been put into the project. But the killer feature it had way back when was Hulu and ever since that became unavailable, well, it became a tougher sell for Boxee in this household.
Boxee received a raw deal with Hulu and I don't blame the company in the slightest there at all. But I will make this point on the content front. Going with "unique content" and highly niche based stuff is a massive fail. It's been attempted before and it failed badly. Entrance to the TV set is not with YouTube/Revision3 stuff. It's makes for a nice addition, but you had better be ready to back it up with some mainstream content going beyond merely duplicating countless other options already offering much of the same thing.

Eight days to go until I fly out to South Africa to officially meet the rest of the team! I can not believe it is almost here! I have been praying for several years for the opportunity to take part in an Audiology mission trip. I feel so blessed to be given this opportunity to use my knowledge and skills to help others and be able to take part in this mission! Since I learned at AAA that I would be able to take part in this amazing trip I have been counting the days until July 29th, thinking it would take forever to get here and now it is right around the corner!
The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of activity for me trying to make sure I have everything I would need while in South Africa. Dr. Clark has been great to send us email updates to let us know what to expect and what to bring so I have been working on getting those items, some of which included: international health insurance, vaccinations, supply donations, appropriate clothes for the weather, etc. I must admit I procrastinated as long as possible on the vaccinations because I have been known to faint when getting shots, but I am happy to report I got all of the recommended ones and did not faint! In addition to getting prepared to leave I have been busy taking care of my current patients in my private practice. I am blessed to work with a very supportive business partner that is willing to keep our practice running while I am in Africa. I am so grateful that she is willing to help my patients while I am away!
My husband has also been helping prepare me for my trip in his own way…As an avid soccer fan he recorded and watched ALL of the World Cup games that were played in South Africa this year. Since I did not care to watch ALL of the soccer matches, he would call me to the television any time ESPN would do a special story about South Africa that he thought I would find interesting! I loved hearing more about the area and each glimpse I got only made me more and more excited about our journey ahead!

The National Weather Service reports that 7.86 inches of rain fell yesterday at the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, surpassing the record 4.50 inches that the airport saw on that same date in 2005 when the city was facing Katrina.
During Katrina, the airport, located in Kenner, Louisiana, escaped the massive damage that befell the city. In 2005 The New York Times' Sewell Chan reported that "the main airline terminal, which dates to 1959, was barely damaged, and power and electricity were restored within four days." At the time of writing, the airport was "home to nearly 5,000 soldiers and airmen and a medical triage center that the Army is converting into a field hospital."
All commercial flights out of the airport today were canceled as its power had been cut off in the storm.

Diane Barnes, O&M Specialist, ESC XIII (1/2001)
O&M Instructor IEP
The O&M Instructor works directly (pull - out) with the "student"
- The ARD papers document how often the student will receive services, and the length of time of each session
- The ARD papers document teaching environments (e.g. school, and/or home, and/or community)
- If services will take place other than (or, in addition to) regular school hours, ARD papers document 'When" (e.g. before school, after school)
- If other team members serve in a "role release" capacity, two things should occur:
- The O&M Instructor "models" "specific techniques" in the "environment/s" in which they will be used
- The O&M Instructor "monitors" (observations and communications) for accuracy and the need for adaptations / corrections
- Under this model, the student has demonstrated the ability to work with a service provider who s/he does not interact with throughout the natural context of her/his day, learn skills in isolation (e.g. touch technique taught by walking back and forth down the hall), tolerate concentrated practice of skill/s during a session, and /or generalize skills from one situation to another.
Integrated (Team) IEP
- The O&M Instructor collaborates with at least one other team member in writing an IEP which incorporates both party's goals and objectives. This type of IEP is most used with infants/students who require learning techniques in the context of structured routines (part of student's natural day, instead of "in isolation"), and/or the student works best with few interveners.
- Each discipline's name is listed on the "person responsible" section of the IEP. The perspective person's initials are listed next to each specific technique in which s/he will teach and model (e.g. if the routine is "student will use the cane to walk to bathroom", the O&M instructor's initials are listed as the teacher, but all parties will play a role in implementing the activity as part of the student's daily schedule.
- Under this model, the O&M instructor provides direct services for an extended period, but may or may not serve in the on-going direct service capacity. The role may shift to the "consult" model when techniques application/s reach the level of no longer requiring direct O&M Instructor intervention. The O&M Instructor continues to hold responsibility for the Under this model, the O&M instructor provides direct services for an extended period, but may or may not serve in the on-going direct service capacity. The role may shift to the "consult" model when techniques application/s reach the level of no longer requiring direct O&M Instructor intervention. The O&M Instructor continues to hold responsibility for the implementation of specified O&M techniques and techniques, and monitors/communicates regularly with the "role releasee/s".
NOTE: For children in the birth to three year old (0 - 3) category, an IEP is not used. O&M Instructor intervention areas are documented in the IFSP paperwork.
- The O&M Instructor does not work directly with the child/student.
- The O&M instructor has identified O&M related areas which may benefit the child /student, but these services can appropriately be provided by the parent and incorporated into existing service providers' (e.g. VI teacher, class room teacher) programs.
- The O&M Instructor demonstrates specific techniques, and/or provide the teacher/s with activities and experiences which will enhance the child's/student's independent travel abilities.
- Under this model, the child/student: (1) demonstrated skills at the appropriate level, but requires monitoring to ensure consistency/accuracy, and/or (2) has good functional travel vision, but would benefit with enhancement opportunities and experiences (e.g. identifying landmarks and clues when on field trips and family outings).

Many people don't think to invest in residential security systems until after a break-in, and then they wonder why they didn't secure their home sooner. When it comes to home security, practicing smart prevention is essential. As the weather warms up and you begin making plans to travel from home on a summer vacation, consider installing home security beforehand to reap the following benefits.
Deter Burglars and Leave Break-In Worries Behind
If you go on vacation and your home is sitting empty, dark, and quiet – it could attract a potential burglar that is looking for an opportunity to strike. If you don't have a home security system, you could come home from vacation to traumatic damage. You don't want to wait until after your child has been startled, your family heirloom has been stolen, or your home has been ransacked to install a home security system.
At Chesapeake Systems Service, Inc., we can secure your perimeter to prevent break-ins and deter burglars by sounding an alarm before the intruder enters your home. If you opt for motion sensor security, you can be alerted instantly when suspicious activity is detected. For extra peace of mind, homeowners who install smart security have the ability to control their lights from any location – making it even easier to deter burglars while you're away.
Protect Your Home From the Unthinkable with Security Alarms
Packing and leaving for summer vacations can be frantic, especially if you have kids or need to catch an early flight. As you and your family rush out the door, you could be leaving your home at risk. What if your teenage daughter forgot to turn off her curling iron or blow out that candle? What if you left the oven running after you took out your breakfast biscuits? What if you left a pet behind and there is a carbon monoxide leak? Without security alarms, this paranoia could ruin your entire vacation. An integrated security system will notify you immediately when elevated CO or smoke is detected within your home. But what if you're already hours away?
At CSS, we know that fires spread quickly and contribute to costly and sometimes irreversible damages. That's why our integrated security systems simultaneously make an emergency call to dispatch the local fire department to your home at the first sign of a fire. We can also install life-saving carbon monoxide detectors within your home to alert and protect your family and pets from the deadly dangers of CO poisoning before it's too late.
Now, Who is Ready for the Beach? Install Smart Security Today!
Investing in a Smart House can provide you with both state of the art fire protection and home security essentials. If you think you might be ready to investigate into Smart House technology, then give us a shout. We can help you get thinking.

Regarding the new offering of E- LAN, CenturyLink® is planning to introduce it by the second half of this year. The E- LAN product will be adaptable for various kinds of use cases, and the telco is intending to release along its global footprint, such as in Latin America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific regions. The telco also expects that their E-LAN offering will be successful in metro cities, which will enable it to serve both the small and medium enterprise markets.
CenturyLink® has also partnered with various other cloud service providers such as Microsoft Azure and Oracle. McReynolds said, "We've continue to add cloud partners over the years such as Azure, Oracle and AWS. We do some connections to those cloud providers dynamically, but we're going to double down on that investment so we can enable customers' digital transformation as they move from their legacy data centers and move workloads into the cloud in a real-time fashion."

Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton's chances of beating teammate Nico Rosberg for the first time this season and closing the gap in the championship lead just got a little more difficult as the Briton was handed a five-place grid penalty for the Chinese Grand Prix due to a gear box change. The German driver has won the first two races of the 2016 F1 season despite the reigning World Champion qualifying on pole for both races.
F1 regulations state that every driver must use the same gearbox for six consecutive races and any change will incur a five-place grid penalty. The Mercedes team confirmed that the unit in Hamilton's car was damaged during the previous race at the Bahrain International Circuit and after an inspection in China, the team decided to fit a new unit for the race in Shanghai scheduled for 17 April.
This will hamper Hamilton's chances of beating the in-form Rosberg, who already holds a 17-point advantage in the Drivers' World Championship, and it will also put the former McLaren driver in the middle of the top-10 with the rest battling for positions on the first turn. The opening turn has not been kind to the three time World champion in the previous two races, and he will hope for a cleaner getaway this time around at the Shanghai international circuit.
The Mercedes is by far the quickest car on the grid, and the team believes that the Chinese Grand Prix is the best place to take the penalty as there are a number of overtaking opportunities, which will allow Hamilton to make his way up the grid and challenge the leaders.
"This is the best circuit to do so in the first six race cycle as overtaking is easier here compared to the coming tracks, so the overall impact of the grid penalty is judged to be less here in Shanghai," a Mercedes spokesman was quoted as saying by ESPN F1.

Sleeping is the body's way to regain energy from the day's work. During sleeping, several important processes happen such as optimum skeletal and muscle growth, maintenance of digestive function, regaining energy and relaxing the mind. However, because of various practices during sleep such as sleeping position, sleep can be beneficial or not. People should know the best sleeping position as well as the worst to assume a relaxing and safe way to sleep. The following are considered the best and worst sleeping positions:
Best Sleeping Positions
- Supine or back position
Lying at your back has been the most common and one of the best sleeping positions. Supine position allows the back, neck and head to be in a neutral position, thereby improving the blood flow to the brain. In addition, the muscles on the back and neck are not tensed preventing muscle spasms and injury to the vertebral column. Aside from that, sleeping on your back with a pillow will also prevent acid reflux at night, which can cause heartburn that may disturb you from sleep. When the head is elevated with a pillow, the tendency is that the esophagus is higher than the stomach preventing reflux. Sleeping at your back also prevents any impediment on the face, reducing wrinkles.
- Left or right side lying position
Side lying position is also a good sleeping position because it is beneficial to prevent back pains as well as neck pains. Side lying is also good for people who snore because the tongue is displaced on the sides and does not block the airway. This position is good for infants as well as adults with compromised breathing because it allows for the drainage of secretions, thereby preventing accumulation in the airways. This position is also beneficial to pregnant women because it prevents compression of the vena cava. However, this position may contribute to sagging of the breast because of the pull of gravity to one side.
- Frequent change of position
When you sleep, you should assume different positions to prevent stasis of blood and also to allow for circulation to all areas of the body. Maintaining same position leads to poor circulation on the area that is compressed on the bed.
Worst Sleeping Positions
- Fetal Position
Fetal position is not a good way to sleep because it restricts lung expansion because the diaphragm is compressed. In addition, it may also lead to backaches when you wake up because the muscles on the back are contracted while you arch.
- Prone position or lying on your stomach
Sleeping in this position most of the time is not good because the tendency is your head is turned to one side. As a result, the neck muscles are contracted to one side. Once you wake up, you may experience neck stiffness and aching. This position does not also allow for a neutral position of the spine that may lead to back pain. Prone position may be beneficial only to those experiencing severe snoring because this position tends to open the airways.
- Sleeping with a pillow under the tummy
Pillows on the tummy aggravate the abnormal curving of the spine when you lie in a prone position. Because of this, the muscles on the back are much tensed and may lead to back pain, which will send you right back to Dr. Mohr, your Wesley Chapel chiropractor.
These positions should be reviewed in order to allow for the best position that will support your whole body. However, comfort is also important, thus it is essential for you to assume a position that you feel comfortable with less the negative effects.

The Health Ministry has high hopes for the ongoing mass immunization program in southern Israel, a response to the discovery that roughly 2.5% of children living in the region carry the polio virus.
"I hope we'll manage to eradicate this virus, which is fairly stubborn," Health Minister Yael German said, speaking to Walla! News.
The public should not be worried, she said, "If it worries me, you can relax. It's OK, we're taking care of it."
She added, "We have a professional team that's taking care of it, that's doing tests, sending samples abroad, gathering information each day… Tomorrow we'll do a general assessment of the situation. If, G-d forbid, the virus spread, or there is a case of illness – and I very much hope that won't happen – then there will be cause for concern. But for now there's no need to worry."
German also responded to reports that the virus was brought to Israel by illegal entrants who infiltrated Israel from Egypt. "I… we're not sure it was the illegal entrants," she said. "Let's not rush to point fingers."
Many people from around the world enter Israel legally, she pointed out.
While German seemed encouraged by the immunization program's smooth start, the program now faces a new challenge: activist groups which believe the vaccines being offered may be dangerous.
"The drops contain the weakened virus, and health organizations around the world have agreed that the drops themselves can cause polio," argued Mor Sagmon of the Association for Information on Vaccines.
In 1988 some children developed polio after being given an oral vaccine with a live strain of the virus, he said.
Sagmon argued that the vaccines currently being used in Israel have not been adequately tested. "This is a vaccine that was developed in India and has never been tried in a Western country," he said.
Sagmon has stated that he is not against vaccines, but simply wants parents to be aware of potential dangers. However, many others are using Facebook and similar sites to call on parents not to allow health workers to give their children the immunization.
The World Health Organization has expressed support for the ongoing immunization efforts in Israel. The organization's website notes that it is "very rare" for the live strain used in the vaccine to reverse to the profile of wild polio, and that even then, it does not always lead to infectious poliomyelitis.
Within Israel, the immunization campaign has received support from MK Ilan Gilon of Meretz, who suffered polio as a baby and was left with a lifelong handicap as a result. His personal experience has led media outlets to seek his opinion on the matter, and he has expressed support for the effort to vaccinate children.
