Acute/D4 Ring A ring flash for the D4 packs

Product number: 330513

Fashion photographers choose the Acute/D4 Ring when they’re looking for a direct and prominent key light without harshness. When the lens is positioned in the center of the ring-shaped flash it creates a unique light with striking shadows.

Some prefer it because it’s mounted on the camera and easy to move around with. Others love it because of the unique catch light it creates. Needless to say there is no right or wrong way to use the Acute/D4 Ring.

  • Can either be mounted on a stand or directly on the camera.
  • Creates a direct light without harshness.
  • Creates an inimitable catch light.
  • Very safe to use thanks to the UV reduced flash tube and Arc-proof connector.
  • Compatible with a number of dedicated light shaping tools.

Getting to know Alex, Senior Account Manager

by Karen - Copy Writer for The Prop Factory

Wednesday 15th January 2020 10:18:40

Over the last few months we've introduced you to the prop makers who make all the unique one-of-a kind-props on our inventory. Making props is what we are all about, but that's only half the story - there's no point us making a warehouse-full of fabulous things if they just sit on our shelves. Behind the scenes, there's a small, but perfectly formed, team of worker-bees making sure that hiring props from us is a lovely and stress-free experience, from the time you first look at our website until your props arrive on your doorstep.

Probably the first person you'll speak to when you phone the Prop Factory is Alex, our Senior Account Manager. So, in the interests of putting a 'face to the voice', I chose to chat to her for our next 'behind-the-scenes' blog.What's your role at the Prop Factory?

My job is all about making sure that our customers are happy. For a larger corporate client this might mean meeting them and finding out what they need from us. For a wedding customer it could be helping them make choices about which props go well together and building an order with them for their big day. I'm often the first person that new customers speak to on the phone and I need to be able to answer all types of questions about our props. It's important that I know a lot about the items in our inventory, so I can make suggestions that customers might not have considered. I also get to show people around our 'warehouse of dreams'!What made you want to work at the Prop Factory?

I first came across the Prop Factory when I was planning my own wedding and quickly followed both the staff instagram and main instagram pages. I had a customer facing role in retail at the time and really wanted to use the skills I had, but in a more creative environment. The Prop Factory seemed the perfect fit for that and I kept in touch with [Prop Factory Director] Carmen for a while until a suitable vacancy came along.Which of your skills do you find most useful in your job?

People want to hear a friendly voice on the phone and I hope that I achieve that! Customer service isn't all about selling - especially in a business like this one. I really enjoy helping people find the props that are perfect for them - not everyone knows exactly what they want and the vast amount of props available on our inventory can panic people a little. I try and use some vision to help them see what items go together well and will work best in their space. They might, for example, have focussed in on one large, expensive, prop, when actually a few more, but smaller, things might suit their space better. I'm also very organised - important when we have last minute orders - and I'm constantly working with our logistics and warehouse team. We always try to make it happen if we possibly can.Do you have creative skills? How do you use them in your spare time?

Well, I really like making pom-poms! I started making them as wall decorations for my wedding - I'd find myself watching tv in the evening and idly making a pom-pom at the same time - it's very therapeutic! They'd fit right in with the lengths of bunting and pom-pom backdrops that we hire out here. I also made a ribbon backdrop and, for table decorations, I gathered lots of mismatched vintage crockery as well as crystal glasses. I scoured charity shops, car boots and the recycling centre - it was a lot of fun! I think I'm a collector at heart - I love a rummage in the tip or a skip! I've found a few brilliant bits of furniture that I've sanded down and repainted and I've currently got a project on the go that needs a bit of upholstery.What's your background before arriving at the Prop Factory?

I have a degree in photography, so there is a creative background there. I really enjoy portraiture and one of my most memorable projects was following a group of wrestlers on tour. I took photos of them before and after they were in the ring - you can imagine the difference! After university I spent some time working on cruise ships - including a 'round the world' cruise. It was a great way to see the world and it's pretty exciting to travel through the Panama Canal! Working on board in a retail role certainly gave me plenty of customer service experience.We're making a lot of new props at the moment. What prop are you most looking forward to seeing and why?

It's got to be the Moon and Stars Photo Seat. I've been watching it come together from a design on paper to the actual prop in front of me. It's a beautiful example of craftsmanship and an ingenious design. It's really very clever the way it all fits together. The backdrop will be deep velvety blue - amazing.Do you have a favourite prop? Anything caught your eye in the warehouse?

The Emily furniture always looks great - I love the different textures of the wooden frames with velvet upholstery - and the mismatch of colours that somehow all work together. It seems to look particularly special when it's used outside. I also love the turquoise and pink furniture - colours that you wouldn't naturally think would work well together but somehow do - you'd never find this to buy in a shop. The whole Willy Wonka theme - with the giant freestanding sweet sign - all comes together really well.

What do you hope to achieve in the next six months?

I'm looking forward to working more closely with some of our customers. I'll be getting out of the office a bit more, going to events and watching the transformation from an empty venue to a fully styled event. Knowing how our customers use our props will help us understand more about their needs and enable us to provide a more personalised service.Describe an average day at work?

I'll be out and about more after Christmas, but at the moment it's dealing with customer enquiries - on the phone and by email - answering queries and putting together proposals. Pulling together a theme can be very satisfying. You're taking someone's vision and turning it into reality. I often take a wander into the workshop and see what's in the process of being made - then I can offer the very newest props to our customers. There's plenty of multitasking - lots of talking, communicating and sharing ideas, passing on information and helping out in other areas if there's a rush on. Then, of course, there's always biscuits. I seem to have become responsible for keeping the tin stocked up with nice biscuits!

How do you take your tea?

In a company of tea drinkers, I'm in the minority with my coffee. Mostly I like my coffee with cake, but plenty of milk in first is good too.What's your favourite day of the week?

Fridays are satisfying. The loading bay is usually full, with all the orders I've been working on ready to go out to waiting customers. Props are being finished off before the weekend and everything's coming together.

Do you have a favourite party theme?

How about a circus with a bit of a dark twist? I really love our brand new illuminated letters that spell out 'circus'. Four feet of bright red gloss with colored lights in a fancy font - they're proving really popular to hire already. I'd put them with our lion cage tables and the enormous red and white concertina entrance. All the really big props that would dress your party in an instant!

See all the props that Alex loves here.

My husband kissed another woman

Asked by on with 1 answer:

About a month ago I found out that my husband kissed another woman. How I found out was I received a letter from Iraq where my husband was stationed, claiming that before he left a group of soldiers went out one night, including my husband. During this evening everyone became extremely intoxicated by noon and continued drinking till 11 that night. This was four days before they were leaving to Iraq. During the first part of the day, a fellow soldier kissed my husband. He pulled away then kissed her back. He claims he was drunk as was she and neither of them were ever looking for anything. They were just friends. She initiated the kiss and in his drunken stuper, he reciprocated. This girl is very unattractive and I am not. She is also a lesbian. These things add to my confusion. What really upsets me is that he never told me. He said he it meant nothing and he was scared I would leave him. I found his phone and saw that on this day they were in constant contact but never before or after. I had to find out 6 months later from a fellow soldier who for whatever reason felt they needed to be honest about it now. The letter alleged they had sex that night but it was a military sponsored trip and there was no opportunity to make that happen. I even went so far as to contact her and other soldiers who were there that night. I even saw pictures of my husband on the bus back to the barracks that night. He says he loves me and could never live with himself if he lost me over something like this. He says it was just a stupid mistake that came about due to alcohol, not underlying feelings.

My husband kissed another woman

Answered by on -

Oh, there were underlying feelings, all right. The man was scared! So was everyone else in that drinking spree. It’s not at all unusual for people to lose their good judgment and to reach for someone else when they are drunk and frightened, and especially when they don’t want to admit how frightened they are. I suggest you believe your husband. He and the other soldier are not carrying on a flirtation. They were drunk and clinging to each other for comfort when they were about to be deployed.

The person I question in this story is the person who decided to contact you. That person is certainly stirring up trouble where there doesn’t need to be any. My guess is that either he or she is trying to get even with your husband or the other soldier for something or he or she is attracted to you. It’s not wise to listen to troublemakers. Don’t respond to any more contacts.

Most military bases have psychological services for soldiers and their families. I think it would be helpful to talk to a counselor who has lots of experience working with military personnel. A military counselor can reassure you better than I can that what your husband did is not a comment on your relationship and can help you deal with your feelings about it.

You and your husband need to put this behind you. You both have enough to worry about without adding overconcern about an impulsive moment. Let it be the trivial incident it was and put your energy into supporting and loving each other while he is in harm’s way.

I wish you well.

A preliminary investigation of lung availability of cannabinoids by smoking marijuana or dabbing BHO and decarboxylation rate of THC- and CBD-acids

Hädener, Marianne, Vieten, Sina, Weinmann, Wolfgang, Mahler, Hellmut
Forensic science international 2019 v.295 pp. 207-212
Cannabis sativa, adverse effects, breathing, butanes, cannabidiol, carbon, combustion, condensates, decarboxylation, flowers, hemp, lungs, oils, smoke, tetrahydrocannabinol, titanium, vapors, volatilization, Switzerland
Highly potent cannabis concentrates obtained by butane or by supercritical carbon dioxide-extraction are gaining popularity. These extracts called butane hash oil (BHO) with Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid A (THCA) contents above 60% are consumed by flash vaporization on a glowing titanium nail, followed by inhalation of the resulting vapor through a water pipe in a single puff — a technique referred to as “dabbing”. We herein investigated the decarboxylation rate of THCA during artificial smoking of cannabis plant material and simulated dabbing, and the lung availability of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) which we define as the recovery of THC in the smoke and vapor condensates. Preliminary smoking and dabbing experiments were performed using an apparatus built in-house. Due to availability of cannabidiol (CBD)-rich hemp in Switzerland, we included a sample of CBD flowers in our experiments and investigated the decarboxylation and recovery of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) and CBD, respectively. Decarboxylation of THCA and CBDA during combustion of the plant material and vaporization of the BHO, respectively, was complete. The high recovery of total THC (75.5%) by dabbing cannot be achieved by smoking marijuana. Lung availability ranged from 12% for mixed cannabis material with a rather low THC content, to approximately 19–27% for marijuana flowers, similar for THC in marijuana as for CBD in CBD-rich marijuana. In reality, when smoking a joint, further losses in recovery must be assumed by additional sidestream smoke. The rather high lung availability of THC via dabbing can explain the increased psychoactive and adverse effects associated with this new trend of cannabis consumption.

Stimulation Package And the Dread Within

The Pretext

As the global remains to bore the planet and also take a cost on the economic climate of various nations completely, one more strain has actually generated.

One Congressional comfort package deal is actually anticipated to become authorized due to the conclusion of July.

The particulars on precisely when a brand-new financial influence remittance are going to be actually created and also that are going to get a 2nd stimulation inspection is actually but to follow out.

Therefore is actually the amount of you could acquire will not be actually negotiated till the Senate is actually back in treatment.

The measurements of one more comfort package deal– and also just how that cash is actually separated up– are going to establish the quantity that households and also people are actually entitled to get in a 2nd financial influence remittance.

The 1st stimulation inspection was actually authorized in March.

It sent out everyone that fulfilled the needs around $1,200 each, and also around $6,000 for households.

The Situation

White House financial specialist Larry Kudlow created a discovery on Friday.

She pointed out that a 2nd stimulation inspection are going to be actually much smaller than the.

That can be found in downright positioning along with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, that has actually suggested that the following stimulation package deal would certainly possess a 1 mountain bucks.

Nonetheless, it operates in contrast to the head of state’s said wish for a much larger payday.

The End

For the final 2 months, plans have actually emerged over just how major a 2nd stimulation inspection must be actually.

It can well variety coming from a solitary $1,200 remittance around $2,000 a month with completion of the whole coronavirus pandemic.

Stay improved considering that our team’re speaking with the Senate, House of Representative and also the White House regarding the following comfort inspection.

Molecular targets of nutraceuticals derived from dietary spices: potential role in suppression of inflammation and tumorigenesis

Exp Biol Med (Maywood). 2009 Aug;234(8):825-49. doi: 10.3181/0902-MR-78. Epub 2009 Jun 2.

Despite the fact cancer is primarily a preventable disease, recent statistics indicate cancer will become the number one killer worldwide in 2010. Since certain cancers are more prevalent in the people of some countries than others, suggests the role of lifestyle. For instance cancer incidence among people from the Indian subcontinent, where most spices are consumed, is much lower than that in the Western World. Spices have been consumed for centuries for a variety of purposes-as flavoring agents, colorants, and preservatives. However, there is increasing evidence for the importance of plant-based foods in regular diet to lowering the risk of most chronic diseases, so spices are now emerging as more than just flavor aids, but as agents that can not only prevent but may even treat disease. In this article, we discuss the role of 41 common dietary spices with over 182 spice-derived nutraceuticals for their effects against different stages of tumorigenesis. Besides suppressing inflammatory pathways, spice-derived nutraceuticals can suppress survival, proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis of tumor cells. We discuss how spice-derived nutraceuticals mediate such diverse effects and what their molecular targets are. Overall our review suggests "adding spice to your life" may serve as a healthy and delicious way to ward off cancer and other chronic diseases.

Seismic evidence for a possible deep crustal hot zone beneath Southwest Washington

Scientific Reports
By:  and

Crustal pathways connecting deep sources of melt and the active volcanoes they supply are poorly understood. Beneath Mounts St. Helens, Adams, and Rainier these pathways connect subduction-induced ascending melts to shallow magma reservoirs. Petrogenetic modeling predicts that when these melts are emplaced as a succession of sills into the lower crust they generate deep crustal hot zones. While these zones are increasingly recognized as a primary site for silicic differentiation at a range of volcanic settings globally, imaging them remains challenging. Near Mount Rainier, ascending melt has previously been imaged ~28 km northwest of the volcano, while to the south, the volcano lies on the margin of a broad conductive region in the deep crust. Using 3D full-waveform tomography, we reveal an expansive low-velocity zone, which we interpret as a possible hot zone, linking ascending melts and shallow reservoirs. This hot zone may supply evolved magmas to Mounts St. Helens and Adams, and possibly Rainier, and could contain approximately twice the melt volume as the total eruptive products of all three volcanoes combined. Hot zones like this may be the primary reservoirs for arc volcanism, influencing compositional variations and spatial-segmentation along the entire 1100 km-long Cascades Arc.

Review: Gun Club VR – Oculus Quest

Wave shooters are a dime-a-dozen on VR headsets, but no so much on the Oculus Quest. With its library still in its infancy, even the most overdone genre can stand out. Enter Gun Club VR.

Gun Club VR is an older game that has been ported to the Oculus Quest, but that’s not to say it’s not worth a look. You won’t be getting hours of story content, nor is there any online multiplayer, but what you get is hours of simple, jump-in jump-out content that’s easy to digest and, more importantly, fun.

Gun Club VR presents you with a warehouse full of different gun-based challenges. To begin with, you’re restricted to pistols as you go through the tutorial stages before unlocking more stuff to do. You’ll learn how to buy new guns, attachments, and upgrades for your firearms before you’re let loose on the varied challenges on offer. You begin with a few simple shooting galleries that have you shooting stationary targets, but it’s not long before you’re holding your own against waves of zombies. Yes, zombies! Because that hasn’t been done to death already…

To be fair, it’s a novel approach and a nice way to add a little tension to what would otherwise be a straightforward game. There’s more than just the standard shooting gallery. Zombies is one part, a Time Crisis-style action mode is another. This variant sees you take out wooden targets that fire back as you move from point to point. It’s a nice way of adding a bit of flair, and it really does get challenging as you move through the stages.

Another area of interest is in the Allies stages. These take you back to WWII for more of the same, but this time you’ll be shooting nazis and nazi zombies. It’s more a change of scenery than anything else, but I appreciated the change to move away from the warehouse.

I don’t know a great deal about guns, being a Brit and whatnot, but they’re all very well detailed, and if I was told they were exact digital replicas, I wouldn’t question it at all. A lot of effort has obviously gone into making the weapons look good and handle well, though they’re not completely without issue. The tracking on the Quest is generally considered to be excellent, and in my experience across the Oculus Quest’s library, that’s certainly been the case. However, the tracking can sometimes get a little wobbly in Gun Club VR. It’s not a game-breaker by any means, but the occasional judder that ruins what would have been a sweet headshot comes and goes infrequently. Thankfully it’s not a constant issue, but it does happen.

Another gripe I have is with two-handed weapons. Perhaps I’m just used to the PSVR’s Aim controller, but aiming two-handed weapons feels strange. Without there being a solid base to keep my hands in place, I often struggled to keep the guns aligned as my hands would naturally drop or sway a little when they’re outstretched for more than a few seconds. This is more a hardware problem than it is an issue with the game, and it makes me wonder if we’ll see additional peripherals in the future that help alleviate these quirks.

Performance is as good as one could hope for in a Quest game. Rarely did I experience any frame drops, though I did notice that the game makes heavy use of foveated rendering. During the normal course of play, this isn’t really noticeable. It’s only when you’re in the menus browsing weapons and upgrades that you really notice the resolution drop on the outer rims of the field of view. Not an issue during gameplay, just a little distracting when in the text-heavy menus.

Gun Club VR is a feature-complete port that makes the transition to the Quest remarkably well. Being able to play untethered isn’t really a selling point here as the game doesn’t make use of room-scale, but instead, the wealth of content on offer is what makes this a worthy purchase. A bit of multiplayer wouldn’t have gone amiss, especially for the zombie modes, but that aside, you can be happy with what’s being delivered.

Gun Club VR Oculus Quest Review
  • Overall - Fantastic - 8/10

Gun Club VR is a simple yet satisfying game to hop in and out of when you’ve got a few minutes to kill. With countless challenges and a new sandbox mode, there’s plenty to see and do. Detailed weapons of every calibre are sure to keep you busy at the firing range, while the chase for high scores will keep you coming back for more. The zombies mode is the highlight for me, but it’s a nicely rounded off package in general.

  • Lots of content – you can easily spend hours perfecting your scores
  • Graphics are brilliant for the Quest and there’s very little compromise

  • Hand controller tracking can be a little iffy at times
  • Multiplayer would have added a lot of replayability

The End

“The Only Thing We Have To Fear Is Fear Itself” ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt

Endings are hard.

There’s always a part of me that never wants a story to end after all the hours spent sitting up late at night turning pages, as I follow a beloved character through their adventure. (Or sometimes, adventures.)  Because you know when you turn that last page, that’s it, it’s over. There’s no more to the story. If there’s anything left unresolved it stays that way and it’s up to you, the reader, to try to figure out why the author left that last question unanswered.

But maybe it’s better that when there is a scheduled time for a conclusion – that it happens. It’s always better to be left wanting more, than dragging out a plotline too much with weary readers who want nothing more than for the story to be over.

I thought about it. I though about continuing this blog past October 20th. I need to confess to you that my reasons have less to do with you, and more to do with me.

I am a creature of habit. I try not to strain myself too much. But this blog – for all my complaining about the challenges, how tiring they were, how many times I failed them; in the last few weeks I realized, I would miss them. Honestly, my biggest fear was this: there were so many challenges I never achieved, would I ever make the effort to attempt the ones that were incomplete? Would I return to my old patterns and behaviours and be the person who said, hmmm, that sounds like fun, but I can’t do it.

In the last couple of days, I’ve taken time to reflect on this blog: what it meant to me, and what it continues to mean to me. It was my experiment you see. To push myself outside of my comfort zone and start saying yes to things I wanted to do.

And wow, I did them. Here are some things (there are a lot, so this is just a snapshot) that I did this year:

  1. Dressed up as a pug for Halloween
  2. Made fruit cake from a recipe
  3. Made lemon meringue pie
  4. Participated in the Polar Plunge
  5. Ran the Hypothermic 10 KM run
  6. Climbed the CN Tower stairs (All 1,776 of them!)
  7. Played paintball. (I think my bruise FINALLY healed!)
  8. Played laser tag
  9. Completed the CN Tower Edgewalk

Things that I wanted to do, but didn’t get done (they are in no particular order):

  1. Play on the extreme trampoline.
  2. Indoor Skydiving
  3. Learn to dance (tap, Irish dance, swing…anything!)
  4. Learn to play my guitar
  5. Go for a big hike in a park in Gatineau (I can’t remember the name of it, a friend of mine told us about it last year)
  6. Take a step class (one of those free ones offered at the gym)
  7. Go to Bonnechere Caves
  8. Take a cooking class
  9. Put my lego set together

I learned many things from this blog. The biggest one was this: I tend to overthink things, and most challenges I stressed over, there was nothing to fear. (And now the quote at the beginning of this post probably makes more sense.)

The truth is: I had a lot of fun.

But maybe that’s the biggest lesson to take from this blog. There is commuting to work, and work, and household chores, and groceries that need to be purchased to make breakfast, lunch and dinners. But peppered in with these responsibilities is life. It’s sharing a drink with family and friends, playing paintball or laser tag, and running Hypothermic races. It’s the moments that we take the time to participate in, and savour, that makes the other chores and responsibilities worth it.

Pushing Boundaries is not complete for me, and I hope it never will be. Because I hope there’s always a new recipe to try, a new sport to play, and an instrument to learn. If I must confess, I’ve already started to look into the Winterman race here in Ottawa, and there is that Lego ship I need to build.

After all, my life is a work-in-progress. There are more adventures to come – if I choose to pursue them.

Total challenges completed: 102 (With the CN Tower Edgewalk it was 103, but -1 because I did not read 10 books.)

Last thing: I plan to post another video as a final tribute to Pushing Boundaries. The video should be completed by October 22nd.

Till Something Resolved – a poem by Paul Vincent Cannon

Dedicate – Word of the Daysick-elderly-woman-needing-care.jpg

Photo: lacavaacupuncture.com

Till Something Resolved

Screen door squeaked around five
the linoleum worn by his steps
he turned on the radio
music streaming
anonymously to his ears
while he sets to with dinner,
as always, the same simple fare,
and he’d bathe and tend her
feed her with love,
she’d rasp her gratitude,
it’s not what they’d planned,
lost were the card nights
the bar with the boys,
their dates were bedpans,
face washers and pills,
her nights were his nights,
till something resolved.

    So heartbreaking–and those who serve in these circumstances, without complaint, are truly noble. I don’t know if you’re writing from personal experience or not…if so, my prayers rise to the Throne. I don’t know which would be worse…to be entirely helpless and alone, at the mercy of strangers, or to be in relationship–watching for subtle signs that one is a burden.

Riverbank Development

In 2015, in response to the slope failure in the Nutana Slope area, City Council approved the continued monitoring and reporting on slope activity.  Since that time, the City Administration and its consultants continue to monitor the riverbank of the South Saskatchewan River with a focus on maintaining public safety.  City Administration also began reviewing options for regulations to support safe and sustainable development on riverbank properties.

The City of Saskatoon is proposing new regulations for development on properties adjacent to the South Saskatchewan River.  Impacted landowners and key stakeholders are invited to information sessions to obtain details.

Engagement on the proposed Riverbank Development Regulations will gather input from impacted residential and commercial landowners, as well as key stakeholder groups in advance of submission to City Council.

Putting Your Business on a Diet: 3 Ways to Regulate Your Finances

2 min read

Corporate Personhood is the idea that corporations are like people—at least when it comes to certain rights and entitlements. This might explain why some corporations, like people, choose to ‘go on a diet’ in their case, a diet of finances! Poor financial management is a source of much heartache (and heartburn!) for businesses, particularly small businesses.

Often it isn’t a lack of revenue or a weak profit stream that’s to blame—just poor regulatory mechanisms and next-to-no financial planning. It’s not whether you have money coming in, but how you manage company finances that matters.

Educate yourself

Knowledge is power, and financial knowledge increases your control over your finances. Financial literacy as it’s also called is a critical tool in any small business owner’s toolbox. As we’re often reminded, it’s our responsibility to familiarise ourselves with the Law, so that we don’t break any laws. Similarly, understanding the laws of cause and effect from a financial perspective, as they apply to your business, is invaluable.

What does this involve? Well, for one thing, it means getting comfortable with your company’s financial statements. After all, if you don’t know what you’re supposed to be regulating—how are you going to regulate it? Your business’s financial statement consists of three key elements: a profit and loss statement, a cash flow statement, and a balance sheet.

The first gives you a snapshot of your revenue and expenses, the second the net growth or fall in cash, and the final document a look at your assets and liabilities. Each of these elements functions as a barometer of your fiscal state and how stable or volatile it is.

Reduce and capitalise on your remaining assets

Where possible, scale back your assets. Assets are of course linked to sales and revenue, but they can also be expensive to maintain. Your assets dictate the amount of capital you need to raise, and capital for its part isn’t cheap.

If you do it strategically, you should be able to reduce your assets and successfully capitalise on the assets you do have in order to leave your revenues unscathed. This is something of a tightrope walk, but is not impossible to accomplish.

Budget, budget, budget

If it wasn’t already clear, the importance of budgeting can’t be stressed enough. In conjunction with an understanding your financial statement, a well-planned budget helps ready you for many eventualities. It allows you to be flexible in how you respond to sudden, unplanned, expenditures for example. It allows trains you to think realistically in terms of short-term, mid-term, and long-term goals. This budget should include an estimate of future sales prices and volumes, as well as cost.

Financial forecasting

With a budget,your accountant will be able to come up with a projected profit and loss statement. This will help you measure your performance in the coming year, to see how you’re faring, and to determine if you need to change direction mid-stream.

Information may be abridged and therefore incomplete. This document/information does not constitute, and should not be considered a substitute for, legal or financial advice. Each financial situation is different, the advice provided is intended to be general. Please contact your financial or legal advisors for information specific to your situation.

Ever read a book so magical you can’t put a finger on it? You feel like the story is so beautiful that you could somehow mess it up? It makes you see a few more shining, bright things in the world. It makes you let go of just a little more pain–a little more sadness and darkness–to appreciate something more… palatable. Something that flows, maybe better than things usually do. Here’s my list of books like that.

  1. The Butterfly Clues–Kate Ellison
  2. Famous Last Words–Katie Alender
  3. Looking for Alaska–John Green
  4. Goodbye Days by Jeff Zentner
  5. Let it Snow with John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle
  6. Counting by 7s by Holly Goldberg Sloan

And these are just a few, of course. But in all these books… there is a piece of each character that stays with you. You learn from fiction if you pick the right book. You learn to love with more magic, to trust with more bravery, and sometimes, you even pick up new phrases such as, “if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane.” (Thanks, J. G.)

Use the books. Absorb the magic. Make friends in alternate universes.

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month

In RADIUS on February 3, 2016 at 1:46 pm

5 Ways to Prevent Kids’ Tooth Decay

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month and the American Dental Association® has 5 tips for keeping your child’s smile bright and shiny.

  1. Don’t Share. – It may cause more dishes but avoid using the same spoon as your child. Sharing utensils or drinking from the same cup can transfer cavity-causing germs.
  2. Eat Healthy – Eating fruits and veggies doesn’t just help your child grow big and strong – it also helps their teeth fight off decay. In fact, the first signs of poor nutrition often show up as cavities. According to MyPlate, fruits and veggies should cover half of your child’s plate.
  3. Meet the Dentist Early – According to the ADA, your child should have their first dental visit no later than 1 year old.
  4. Seal of Approval – Ask your dentist about applying a dental sealant to their teeth. Sealants can help protect against decay.
  5. Two is the Magic Number – Make sure you start brushing your child’s teeth as soon as they poke through the gums. When they can brush teeth on their own, have them brush for 2 minutes 2x per day.

Keep up with your children’s growth stages by using the RADIUS Children’s line of toothbrushes. BPA-free and age-specific the Pure Baby®, Totz®, Totz Plus™, and Kidz® Toothbrushes are designed with your child’s health and smile in mind.

Dr Rahul Sen | Specialist care for birth and beyond | Sydney, Australia

Clinic conveniently located in Edgecliff : Freecall 1800 890 964

Dr Sen and his team are available to answer any questions you may have on your pregnancy, health, hospital care and also financial queries. All you need do is, ask. In the meantime, for the more commonly asked questions, please refer to all the questions and replies below OR select a FAQ subject from the tabs above to locate specific answers you may need. If you have further questions, please use our Contact Form.

Do I need a referral?

You will need a referral from your GP if you wish to claim a rebate from Medicare. You will need the referral the first time you see me and the referral lasts 12 months.

What are my expenses?

If you are an obstetric patient my “Letter for Antenatal Patients” details my fees and the rebates. If you are a gynaecological patient I usually charge the fees as recommended in the Australian Medical Association schedule of fees. I can provide you with a quotation before any proposed procedure.

The cost of a first consultation is $350 and $150 for a follow up visit.  Routine antenatal visits are $120. If an ultrasound is required at the same time the cost will be $100.

Where do you deliver?

I deliver at both the Royal Hospital for Women and Prince of Wales Private Hospital in Sydney.

Which is better of the two hospitals?

Both hospitals are excellent. RHW is starting to struggle with the extra demand brought about by the Medicare changes. It is a more affordable option if you are self-funded or do not have access to Medicare or private health insurance.

POWP offers the very popular Little Luxuries programme, where women can spend part of their post-natal stay at the Crowne Plaza in Coogee.

Where do you operate?

I have regular operating lists at the Royal Hospital for Women and the Prince of Wales Private Hospital.

Mandala Monday ~ Grandchildren

My sweet granddaughter and I made this mandala together when I went over to visit my daughter and grandchildren last week. What a joy they are to me! 💕

I found a couple of deflated balls in their garage that I thought we could use as makeshift bowls and then went around the yard with my granddaughter and gathered various blooms and foliage. She loves foraging! When she decided we had collected enough treasures, she went about laying hers out on the ground…

Here’s her layout…

Precious thing! 😍

As I began laying out what I had in my bowl, I explained to her that I was wanting to arrange mine in a symmetrical pattern, and she came over to assist. And she caught on right away. Making it symmetrical was a bit of a challenge, as we didn’t have equal numbers of the various flowers and the ground was bumpy and uneven, but it was fun and we were very pleased with our little creation.

My grandson had been busy splashing in the pool while my granddaughter and I created our mandalas, but he came over to ‘help’ when we were finished…

Sweet boy! He is so darn cute in his little swim diaper! 😍

And I have to share at least one picture I snapped of him playing in his little pool…

I adore my grandchildren. 🥰 I’m so grateful to spend this time with them making mandalas and playing in the pool.  It’s the simple joys. 💕

Wishing you simple joys and many blessings in the coming week…

✿~Peace & Love~✿

I furthermore pledge that if I indulge in secret private conversations about you, we will make a formal report to the mob. Is that all?
If you impugn my motives without warrant, or challenge my "AUTHORATIE", er, there is nothing I can or will do.

I guess I'm a sysop now, not a clue why. But power is always good. :D

Hi! I'm Jeffrey Doherty from New Brunswick,Canada. I'm a real christian conservative (plymouth brethren) that was arbitrarily blocked by Ed Poor, that stupid bugger who polices conservapedia.. which incidentally did not respond to my request to be unblocked and did not remove the self produced essays (explicitly copyrighted to myself) upon request.

About me, Conservapedia[edit]

I'm a redneck university student that does graduate work in Islamic textual history. Some of my conservapedia articles are still up, because they were quality stuff, but some were taken down because the admin's at conservapedia decided I was a parodist when I wrote the Islam and Woman article, or something of the sort, the reason wasn't explained to me... typical bullocks. I think it was because I disagreed with Ed Stupid, who asked for a source on malaysian work camps, some bullocks on American lumberjacks eating 5000 calories a day (unsourced bullshit) making them harder workers, and author of the oh so clever stub; "Smarth Growth". Additionally, he believes that there is a correlation between higher minimum wage and unemployment, despite the rest of the western world, Canada included, having higher employment rates than the average American city as well as higher wages.I guess I'm quite bitter, for being removed for no good reason,and having quality articles revised by amateurs who had no knowledge in the field. Check out RJensen's revisions in Islamic history related articles; laughable. Also, check out them revising the massive edition to the article on my own religious denomination cited with material produced directly by the same... what bullocks..

So I guess that's the end of that.

So I guess this is the A.A group for ex-conservapedians, "My name is Jeff, and I was a conservapedian (however briefly.. a monthish)".

Relationship to Rational Wiki[edit]

Additionally, I found some things I'd written on conservapedia on this site in your "what's going on feature".

Totally kicked Andy's ass in that shallow mockery of an essay, "Liberal Denials about History".

83User: The "Liberal denials about history" article has got to be a joke.img Andy: You're in absurd denial. Invention is an American thing and Americans work harder than anyone else.img User: What about the Malaysian work camps where you work 12 hours a day and barely get anything to eat?img Andy: You have free will to deny basic facts. I'll bet you spend more time trying to reject the Bible than reading it.img User: I'm a member of the Plymouth Brethren, actually. Rejecting the Bible isn't in my modus operandi.img Andy: um, TL;DR, um...img

Parthian Shot[edit]

Also, I got bored and troll'd them this morning, decided to have a proper farewell.

REACH works with Irving Chamber for Annual Banquet

In Uncategorized on April 23, 2009 at 4:29 pm

REACH took a behind-the-scenes role in a spectacular event last night at the Studios at Las Colinas. The Greater Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce held its annual awards banquet attended by more than 300 business leaders. Kudos go to Vanessa Segovia, Shawn Callaway, Chris Wallace and the entire chamber staff for a terrific event. Entertainment was provided by the Texas Blues Machine (featuring Chamber Ambassador Leo Hull) and the event was emceed by a VP from Time Warner Cable, the presenting sponsor.

REACH assisted by preparing an on-screen presentation to present a high-quality, high-impact image and to assist in announcing award winners. REACH staff also assisted with last-minute adjustments to AV equipment, lighting, computer adapters, and various other last-minute details that pop up in an event of this scale.

REACH also provided a one-of-a-kind photo for the event’s silent auction. The frame black and white image shows Texas golf legends Byron Nelson and Ben Hogan smiling at the challenge before them just before the two squared off in a playoff at the 1942 Masters Tournament in Augusta, Georgia. Nelson won the playoff 60-70.

The Chamber gave 14 awards at the event. For a complete list of award winners, watch this week’s editions of the Irving Rambler or Irving Journal.

Today I attended the Local Government Association’s national board meeting on Health and Social Care. Along with 6 other Labour councillors from around the country my role is to put forward Labour’s agenda for health and social care on a cross-party board which is currently chaired by a Conservative.  report back on LGA board meeting 280917

The main divide however is between the Conservative government’s short-sighted and ideological approach which pays only lip service to local communities, family carers and the workforce’s contribution.

Jackie Dyle MP, Under Secretary of State for Care and Mental Health, attended. It was very telling that many of the issues raised with her were around housing, and the impact that government policy has on the ability of local communities to build council housing – including the specialist housing we have worked so hard to get a limited amount of in Reading – and to ensure that in general planning policy takes into account local needs, such as older people and the increasing number of young people with physical and learning disabilities. In my experience her colleague Alok Sharma has no understanding of this and he will need to be heavily lobbied to take any action (one reason I set up
the bedroom tax petition

The board has agreed a range of priorities but hey can be summarised by lobbying for proper funding of the sector, ensuring funding is going to the right place and an equal seat at the table for local government in this debate.

I pushed the importance of planning for recruitment and retention of the workforce, and emphasised the need to consider options like the UNISON Ethical Care Charter to raise the status of home care. This is going to be of increasing importance, especially with the government’s reckless approach to Brexit, and the impact this will have on areas of the country, like Reading, London and the South East as a whole that rely on immigrant workers.

My conclusion was that there remains agreement outside of a small enclave of Tory MPs that social care and public health need funding, and help with recruitment, and we should be focusing on helping people live good lives – what social care calls wellbeing and health calls ‘prevention’.  However, I believe that there is no prospect that the government will grasp the nettle on this. We will see how the Green Paper process develops, and along with Labour comrades I’ll be getting involved but in the meantime we should look out for short term cuts that damage communities alongside the blame being shifted to local NHS trusts and councils when pressure builds this winter.

Real Men Feel: Ep. 194, The Power of The Heart

June 30, 2020

The Power of The Heart Episode 194, June 30, 2020

Martial artist, healer, and massage therapist, Akeem Sami, joins us to share how the power of our heart can supersede issues such as racism and manipulation. He’ll also discuss the importance for men to connect to their feminine energy.

“It is important to see everyone as who they are, who they show up to be, but know that there is something deeper.” ~ Akeem Sami

Early traumas in the public school system had Akeem feeling judged and suppressed. His parents homeschooled him, and he thrived. By his early teens, he worked with his dad’s motivational speaking business, studied and taught martial arts, homeschooling, and more learning to speak his truth, hone his confidence, intuition, community service, and much more.

We go on to explore the power of empathy, connecting and communicating energetically, the mask of being perfect, opening your heart, and shifts courtesy of car accidents. Akeem also shares some psychic experiences as a child, the challenge of maintaining an open heart with concepts of masculinity and seeing yourself as a microcosm of the universe.

Topics and Questions Include:

  • (1:02) How are you, really?
  • (1:59) Deciding what to share with the world.
  • (15:30) Is there anything you’ve done that you haven’t excelled at?
  • (17:38) Does leading with your heart come organically to you?
  • (19:38) The notion that there is always more and always someone doing something better.
  • (21:56) Even in times of extreme poverty, was your positive mindset always there?
  • (28:13) What does melting someone’s heart mean to you?
  • (31:12) Was this energy work a learned skill?
  • (39:42) Psychic abilities of kids.
  • (43:50) Did anyone ever tell you a man should not have an open heart?
  • (49:31) The importance of connecting to feminine energy.
  • (58:31) How far along is your autobiography?
  • (59:40) Is there anything you wish you had learned at a younger age?
  • (1:01:52) What are you looking forward to?

“I got off on melting people’s hearts. To get them to know me, and I get to know them.” ~ Akeem Sami

Rebecca Writes

Moving Home: The Biggest Adventure Yet

This one time, in Hong Kong….

It’s the sentence I dread slipping out. I don’t feel ashamed or embarrassed about my time spent living in Hong Kong but having moved back after three years away, I’m conscious of sounding like one of those friends who lived abroad and ‘found themselves’. But as I approach the three month mark of being back home, Hong Kong is slipping away and I’m not entirely convinced that I’ve taken time to think about what that means.

Continue reading “Moving Home: The Biggest Adventure Yet”

Home for the Holidays

The one thing I miss the most about England (apart from my wonderful family) are the long summer evenings. Sunset varies by about an hour across the year in Hong Kong and we rarely see the sun past 7pm. Luckily the school holidays mean that for four lovely weeks I had the opportunity to head home and enjoy gardens, sunsets, strawberries, carpets, cheese, olives and overpriced train fares.

Dear Graduates.

Before I moved out of Sheffield I read an article in the Guardian comment series ‘The graduate without a future’. Now, I don’t like to think I’m a graduate without a future but the reason it caught my eye was because it was titled ‘Moving back to your parents’ home: a survival guide’. I suddenly started to panic that maybe moving back home to save rent money for the trip might leave me crawling the walls and regressing into a moody, door-slamming teenager. Luckily, the walls are freshly painted and the carpets make doors un-slammable.

Dear Sheffield.

I’m going to miss Sheffield. I ended up here by accident really, following Mark to uni in the Steel City after nearly four years of a long distance relationship. It’s been a real home, somewhere I’ve been able to indulge in my northern, foodie and old man pub roots. Here I’ve had my first experience on the dole (one for the scrapbook!), paid my very first electricity bill, started a self-employed career doing something that I love and made some great friends along the way. All in all, a great success.

Continue reading “Dear Sheffield.”

Dear Doris.

The decision to finally take the plunge and head off on a long-awaited trip was made shortly after some sound advice from my grandma…
“Travel now, while you’re young. Don’t bother waiting until you’ve saved up enough money, you never will. Sod it, you can deal with that afterwards. Go while you can still make the most of your experiences.”

So grandma, this big adventure in my life, as well as my incredible shortbread baking skills, is inspired by you. Thank you.

Equal Pay Day 2018: It's Time to Get Comfortable Talking About Money

Equal Pay Day Chicago

Alpana Singh was the youngest female to pass the final level of the Master Sommelier exam, she had an award-winning PBS show, she was selling thousands of dollars of wine every night for her employer – and she was still too afraid to ask for a raise.

“I knew I was getting underpaid, but I didn’t want to create a ruckus,” Singh told the crowd at the Equal Pay Day program held at Chicago’s Daley Plaza on April 10. “Women can do everything right and still not get paid fairly.”

Singh did finally get a raise – five years later – and in the meantime, she says she made the costly mistakes that too many women do: She assumed that if she worked hard, her bosses would pay her what she was worth, and she hesitated in asking male counterparts what they were making.

“We don’t like talking about money, and that needs to change,” she said. “When women win, we all win.”

Singh was the keynote speaker at the 8th Annual Equal Pay Day Chicago event that also featured fiery speeches from Dorri McWhorter, CEO of the YWCA Metropolitan Chicago, and Sharmili Majmudar, director of Strategic Partnerships for Women Employed.

Equal Pay Day is held every April to reflect how far into the year the average American woman has to work to earn as much as a man did by Dec. 31 of the previous year. The symbolic day is different for women of color, coming in August for African American women and in November for Latinas.

McWhorter predicted that we’d be sending people to Mars before we close the wage gap here on Earth, and Majmudar noted that the wage gap starts early, with boys getting 15 percent more allowance for the same chores as their female siblings.

“It’s not a myth, it’s math,” Majmudar said of the wage gap.

She and others encouraged people to contact legislators to support HB4163, a measure that would prohibit employers from seeking information about a job candidate’s salary history. The bill has passed the Illinois House and is in the Senate.
