I am so proud that Payday HCM was awarded one of Albuquerque's "Top Workplaces" for 2017, as it was in 2014. What makes us a great workplace? As a part of our culture, we promise our employees that by applying the principles of trust, honesty, integrity, and commitment, we nurture and maximize talent to the benefit of each individual and the company. We foster a work environment where diversity is valued, quality of life is enhanced, individual aspirations are fulfilled, and our reputation is strengthened. In return, our employees are easily committed to the success of our business.
Quality as Culture
The concept of quality customer service cannot exist without structure. It comprises elements that must be adopted as integral parts of an organization's customer service platform. Just saying you have a commitment to quality customer service doesn't make it happen. Quality customer service must be part of an organization's culture. And that culture must comprise individual values and standards of behavior that feed the culture with its lifeblood, just as an organism's arteries feed its heart.
A Values-Based Culture
One of the important values we look for when we hire, are colleagues who are motivated by positive feedback from clients. We do not want colleagues who have what I term an "employee mentality." I have never heard one of our colleagues in thirty years say, "It's not my job," or, "I can't work extra hours." Our colleagues do not have a 9-to-5 attitude. They work as long as it takes to finish an assignment. Each colleague is empowered; whoever receives a complaint, for instance, owns the problem and resolves it to the client's satisfaction. We hire and retain colleagues who bring an entrepreneurial, ownership attitude to their jobs. And we invest in our colleagues through training, higher education, attractive compensation, and recognition.
A Culture of Respect
We pay our colleagues well but we can't provide country club memberships and those sorts of benefits to them. However, we feel we can create an environment that provides them with a variety of positive aspects not found elsewhere. First and foremost, we value our colleagues and we show that in numerous ways. We promote mutual respect among our people at and between all staff and management levels. Every colleague has opinions and suggestions and we encourage him/her to share those opinions and suggestions. Part of our approach to creating a favorable environment is giving all colleagues access to management. Without that access, there would be no opportunity for the sharing of ideas.
We also do our best to provide our colleagues with a comfortable physical environment, including quality furnishings, exterior views, and electronic systems and equipment that allow colleagues to perform their work in a high-quality fashion. There are numerous occasions during each year when we reward and recognize colleagues for going that extra mile that is so integral to our client model.
Fun Activities
Finally, we host a number of company events annually from monthly BBQs on site to occasional outings to watch the local baseball team play. Many of these are family oriented where colleagues are encouraged to bring the entire family and others are adult only. When we celebrated our Top Workplace award, we closed early and went to a local pub for drinks, appetizers, and a fun dart tournament. It is these types of activities build a strong team and keeps our work life fun.
A Culture of Excellence
The sum of our hiring practices, the investment in colleagues, continuous product and service improvement, emphasis on the pursuit of excellence, and commitment to the improvement of our clients' performance are the essential foundations of our client platform. However, none of these things happen without the basic ingredients of our culture: The importance of honesty; a dedication to the principle of "character counts"; an organization-wide high-level work ethic; the creation of a family atmosphere; the empowerment of our colleagues to solve problems, etc. It is the unification of these ingredients that creates a culture committed to excellence. And, I believe that commitment to excellence is the greatest motivator for superior employees to want to perform at a high level and to want to stay with an organization.
Turning it Inside Out
Since 1985, Payday HCM has established itself as a client-oriented, service-grounded, professional organization that strives to deliver top-quality service to every client. To us at Payday HCM, it's no mystery that happy employees make customers happy. In fact, many studies show that employee engagement, or the emotional commitment one has to their organization and its goals, drives higher levels of discretionary effort.
Our clients will agree that Payday HCM employees go the distance for them and I believe that their high level of job satisfaction is directly related to the company culture that has sustained us through the years.

70cl - 28% Vol.
Color: rich ruby red
Nose: fruity, tangy, subtle almond aromas
Palate: sophisticated, tangy, powerful, fruity, multilayered, and with a well-balanced finish
The bluish-black berries of the blackthorn, known as "sloe berries", are a very special fruit indeed, which take a few frosty nights to acquire their delicately sweet flavor. For hundreds of years, sloe enthusiasts have been picking these berries in late fall and making them into a juice, and then mixing this with gin to make "sloe gin". For the Swiss Sloe Gin from Macardo, the best Swiss Sir Dry Gin is blended with the pure fruit juice laboriously made from hand-picked sloe berries to create a liquor with a 28% alcohol volume. The result: a distinctively fruity taste sensation, an unparalleled symbiosis of juniper and the 18 other botanicals in Sir Dry Gin, coupled with almond and marzipan aromas. Swiss Sloe Gin is the perfect Swiss liquor, because it can be enjoyed whatever the season. In winter, it warms the heart, while in summer, it makes for a refreshing drink neat on the rocks or mixed with Prosecco to make "Sloesecco" or with soda and lemon juice for a traditional sloe gin fizz.
Tasting notes
A new sidekick from Macardo in Strohwilen in Thurgau. Rich ruby red. An extravagant aroma in the nose, with intense fruity notes of sloe and subtle marzipan and nutty aromas. In the background of our carefully distilled, traditionally handcrafted gin is the tantalizing taste of juniper and lavender. The pleasant consistency and subtle oiliness on the tongue are what stand out on the palate. Considerably more tangy and less sweet than other liqueurs, while preserving the different aromas of the 19 botanicals in the gin. Very creamy, mellow, palatable, with a great fruit, full-bodied mouthfeel, and pleasant almond tones. It has a unique, extremely well-balanced character. A revival à la Thurgau that will appeal to everyone, even non-gin drinkers.

February marks Black History Month. Follow the AJC this month for a series of short stories and videos and people, places and events that played a significant role in the development of black people in America.
No. 11
Today, Auburn Avenue is likely the place you might get stuck behind the Atlanta Streetcar. But for a century prior, there was no place hotter, livelier or richer in any black community than Auburn Avenue.
Located east of downtown Atlanta, Auburn Avenue was known as the "richest Negro street in the world," a phrase coined by its "mayor" John Wesley Dobbs.
» PHOTOS: See historic shots of Auburn Avenue in our Flashback Fotos gallery on the venerable street.
The rise of Auburn Avenue as the primary black business district in Atlanta was, to a great extent, an outcome of the 1906 Atlanta Race Riots. After the riots, black business moved away from mixed communities into black enclaves such as Auburn Avenue. Banks and insurance firms sprung up along the street. Churches like Ebenezer and Big Bethel were beacons. Black newspapers settled there, as did a black YMCA. Night clubs were proving grounds for James Brown and Gladys Knight.
But the most famous thing to come out of Auburn Avenue was Martin Luther King Jr., who was born on the street and lived there through college. When King returned to Atlanta as an adult, he didn't move back to Auburn Avenue to live, but understanding the importance of the street, opened up the national office of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference there.
The area is globally recognized as a black and civil rights destination. So much so that it was named a National Historic Landmark District in 1976 and the area near where King was born – which includes his birth home, Ebenezer Baptist Church, the King Center and a national park – has been designated as the King National Historic Park.
After years of neglect, Auburn Avenue, with the help of the streetcar, seems primed for revitalization. Shops and restaurants are opening up again and people, including Georgia State University college students, are discovering that it's a cool place to hang out.

Diamond Wedding RingsWritten by Jill Morrison
Diamond wedding rings are the most meaningful type of gift you could give to the person you love. The marriage process begins with a diamond engagement ring because it signifies the acceptance of a marriage proposal. Engagement rings are usually worn on the left ring finger throughout the engagement period and throughout marriage. However, some women will choose to wear the wedding band on their left hand and the engagement ring on their right hand during marriage.
Diamond wedding rings or bands are a symbol of marriage and are placed on the hands of the bride and groom at the actual wedding ceremony. After the ceremony, wedding rings should be worn continuously by both the man and woman on their left ring fingers to show their commitment to each other. The left ring finger was initially chosen because it was believed that the vein in that finger led straight to the heart. Modern medicine has proven this notion to be false, but the tradition has survived to this day.
Differences between Diamond Wedding Rings and Wedding Bands
Diamond wedding rings and bands are both appropriate styles of rings to signify marriage. Wedding bands are more popular for men, but women often choose band styles that fit with their engagement rings. Women may choose to have their wedding bands welded together with their engagement rings to form one ring, if they desire. Many women will wear their engagement rings on the same finger as their wedding bands without welding them together as well.
Wedding bands became popular for men at the time of World War II. Bands are more appropriate for men because they are completely different than the style of engagement rings which are worn by women. Wedding bands are flat and make a complete circle around the finger. They are made from precious metals such as yellow gold, white gold, silver, or platinum and may or may not include some diamonds set into the ring. Because they are never-ending, they symbolize a love that lasts forever. Diamond engagement or diamond wedding rings are also circular, but they display a large diamond that protrudes from one side of the ring.
Purchasing Loose Diamonds
When looking at diamond wedding rings, you can choose from a preset ring, or you can purchase loose diamonds separately from your ring setting. By purchasing loose diamonds, you will be able to more accurately determine the quality of particular diamonds. Diamond quality is determined by the Four Cs which are cut, clarity, color, and carat. Cut refers to the proportions and shape of a diamond, clarity reveals the number of imperfections in a diamond, color measures how close a diamond is to being colorless, and carat refers to the weight of a diamond. When purchasing loose diamonds, make sure to ask for certification of quality ratings for any diamond that interests you.
Other Diamond Jewelry Options
There are many other options of diamond jewelry available besides diamond wedding rings. Most types of diamond jewelry make wonderful gifts for any special occasion. You can choose from diamond jewelry options such as diamond necklaces, earrings, bracelets, pendants, and watches. Diamonds are usually given to signify love, but they may also be given to family members or special friends for momentous occasions.
When you are planning a wedding, you will need to consider different types of wedding jewelry besides the diamond wedding rings. A wedding day is a time for the bride to shine and diamond jewels will add sparkle and life to her appearance. You can choose diamond earrings and a necklace that will compliment the wedding gown that she is wearing. You may also want to purchase additional jewelry items with diamonds, such as a bracelet, tiara, hair clip, or veil adorned with diamonds.
Diamond necklaces and pendants are popular gift items for a variety of occasions. You can choose from many different precious metal choices for a necklace chain. You can also choose from various styles of chains, including mesh, snake, knots, circles, boxes, cable, beads, and rope. Necklace chains are available in three different lengths. You can choose from a 16 in., 18 in., or 24 in. chain to wear alone or to wear with a pendant attached to the chain. Regardless of the style you choose, a diamond necklace, or any piece of diamond jewelry, will brighten the day of a person you care about.

Joni Klein-Higger
Barnyard Bubbe's Hanukkah Tour
Joni Klein-Higger is an award-winning Floridian children's book author, songwriter and musical theater playwright/composer/lyricist.
Joni's zest and love for music and songwriting began when she was a girl living in the suburbs of New York, and it continued on as she earned her Speech Communications degree from Ithaca College.

As the population ages but the state has less ability to provide for them, older people will have to work longer. Unless someone has been very successful or exceptionally thrifty the idea of retiring at fifty, sixty or even sixty five years of age has gone out of the window. So they will have to keep working. This means work that will relies in most cases on brains rather than brawn. As you know, as we get older, no matter how much we eat well and work out, the process of our bodies weakening and wearing out is inevitable. There are lots of Instagram, Tumblrs and Pinterest account dedicated to the magnificent fitness and bodies of older people. Body builders in their seventies, people who are Crossfit devotees in their sixties and look amazing on it. And, of course, there are the movies about how an experienced older man kicks the asses of (literally) everyone because of their skills and maintained bodies (Taken, John Wick, The Equalizer). But the reality is, no matter how well we take care of them, they wear out. Or there would be plenty of sixty year old runners in the Olympics or professional football.
So you might have spent all of your life literally heavy lifting but at, say sixty five, you will be very unlikely to compete with a twenty five year old. The good news is that if you "keep your marbles" work in this age of information technology and social media should be available to you. Even in the world of sex workers for firms such as Tenerife Beauties. The sex industry has always been god at diversifying and creating new and different niches to meet (or create) peoples changing tastes. And as the population gets older but fitter, that is reflected in the sex industry. First there were MILFs (Mothers I would Like to Fuck). Now there are GILFs (Grannies I would Like to Fuck). OK, some of the grand mothers are thirty five, but you get the point.
Now, for someone to enter the market as an older sex worker is really not that difficult. It would mean keeping current in terms of technology but as families disperse almost everyone uses WhatsApp, Facebook, has a mobile phone and can log on to a personal computer to get at email. So not so much of a challenge for the baby boomer generation and all those follow it.

Today's installment of campaign-related news items from across the country.
* Georgia's long-awaited congressional special election is today, pitting Jon Ossoff (D) against Karen Handel (R) in a district that's been a Republican stronghold for many years. Polls opened at 7 a.m. local time and will close at 7 p.m. Check out tonight's show for results.
* Though it's received less attention -- and far less money -- South Carolina is also hosting a congressional special election today, with Ralph Norman (R) facing off against Archie Parnell (R) in a deep-red district. The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday, "The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the biggest outside contributor to the race, has spent $275,000 to test a host of messages aimed at driving black voters to the polls. The results, officials say, will inform Democratic turnout efforts in African-American communities in the 2018 elections."
* In Nevada, the latest Public Policy Polling survey found Sen. Dean Heller (R), who's up for re-election in a battleground state, with an approval rating of just 31%, with 44% disapproving. In a test against a generic Democrat, the poll found Heller trailing by seven percentage points.
* With this in mind, it was of interest last night when Politico reported that Rep. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) intended to take on the Republican incumbent in Nevada next year, with a formal announcement coming "in a couple weeks."
* In the race to replace Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), who'll resign from Congress next week, Utah Democrats have chosen physician Kathie Allen as the party's nominee for the special election. There will be no primary, and Allen is considered the underdog in this heavily Republican district.
* The field of candidates in Michigan's 2018 gubernatorial race continues to grow, with Shri Thanedar, a businessman and scientist, kicking off his campaign last week. Thanedar, the CEO of a chemical testing lab in Ann Arbor, is running as a Democrat.
* And while Senate Republicans are rallying behind appointed Sen. Luther Strange (R-Ala.) ahead of his special election in Alabama, Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) is picking up some House supporters: Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Ala.) has endorsed his fellow House member's candidacy.

Coronavirus in Slovenia: End of Epidemic
As of 19 May the official number of infected in Slovenia is at 1,466 with 104 reported deaths. Slovenia has officially declared the end of the epidemic that had started on March 12, when the government started to imposed restrictions such as movement between municipalities, new initiatives for supporting the economy and rules for using indoor public spaces. Many restrictions have now been lifted - museums, galleries and libraries have been allowed to reopen as of well as a number of shops. As of 11 May buses and trains have restarted but passengers must follow safety guidelines of keeping at a 1,5m distance from others, wear masks and disinfect hands regularly. Life on the streets is gradually starting to go back to normal with many more people walking around and having coffees on bar and cafe terraces. The first reported case of Coronavirus in Slovenia (or COVID-19 as it's called by its friends) was on 4 March. On 12 March, the country declared a national epidemic and set in motion a national emergency response plan which included closing down all educational institutions, implementing work from home, restricting border crossings with neighboring countries and setting in motion restrictions on general public life.
Easing of restrictions due to Coronavirus in Slovenia
Update: As of May 18, schools have reopened for children of the first three and last grade of primary school. As of May 11, public transportation has restarted. While physical distance measures are still in place, as of 30 April people are able to move between municipalities freely. As of 18 April, several sport activities are being allowed again and sport centers like tennis fields and such have reopened. If cycling was just a week or two ago being demonized on social media it seems like those self-acclaimed sports and morality experts have relaxed a little.
As of 30 March, the powers that be have prohibited travel to municipalities outside the place of official temporary or permanent residence, with exceptions of needing to get to work, caring for someone in need or accessing food or medical care otherwise not available in their own municipality of residence. These measures were taken after many people apparently mistook self-isolation and the quarantine as freedom for holiday makers and a trip to the most popular of Slovene tourist destinations.
All public transportation has been halted, but taxis are running and must follow strict guidelines of disinfecting the vehicle after each passenger. As far as we know, horses are allowed, and there are more of those carrying policemen seen walking around.
Shops only allow high-risk groups such as elderly, pregnant women and differently-abled entry between 8:00-10:00 am and the last hour of the shop's opening hours. In addition to keeping your distance to other people in closed public places it is obligatory to wear a protective mask or otherwise cover your nose and mouth with a shawl, scarf or equivalent and disinfect your hands at the provided hand sanitisers.
Markets, cafes and bars are back!
If two weeks ago everything aside from supermarkets, pharmacies, banks, post offices, petrol stations and newsagents was closed, non-essential food stores, car and bike repair shops, hairdresser salons, beauty parlors and cafe, bar terraces and restaurants have been allowed to reopen. We can once again do the Ljubljana thing and have lazy coffee after lazy coffee by the river. While local farmers have been returning to sell their produce at local markets around town, many had during the quarantine period resorted to local delivery and are still up and running.
What is up and running again?
If 13 March saw the closing of museums, galleries, libraries, cinemas and tourist attractions, closely followed by restaurants and bars, this is no longer the case. While home food, drink and grocery delivery is flourishing, as are a number of online activities gathered on our Events in Ljubljana page, many museums, galleries and outdoor places like Zoo Ljubljana have reopened.
People stuck at home have proven to find all sorts of activities, creative engagements and projects to rebel against loneliness, compulsive cleaning or other results of anxieties related to these crazy times of quarantine. Now is the time for watching movies, playing games and supporting local businesses.
Regardless of a tsunami of pictures of homemade bread on social media, Home Delivery Restaurants in Ljubljana have not lost their game, and delivery companies like Wolt and ehrana.si are hurrying to meet demand. Since they've adapted to a safe, non-contact and risk-free delivery service, there is really nothing to worry about except the competition it poses to your home cooking.
Where can I find more information about the Coronavirus in Slovenia?
The government's official announcements (in English) can be read here, although they are not updated as frequently as the Slovene language one here, which is nothing a little Google Translate can't fix.
Every day at 14:00 the National Institute of Public Health (NIJZ) updates the number of conducted test results from the day before as well as an overview of the number of infected, hospitalized, in critical condition and the number of death cases. You can follow some updates, lifestyle tips and other articles of interest here.
Are land borders to Austria, Hungary, Croatia and Italy open?
Current information about which land border checkpoints with Austria, Hungary, Croatia and Italy are open and where it is currently possible to enter or exit Slovenia are listed here.
Italy: As of 19 March, 4 checkpoints have been set up along the Slovene-Italian border that allows entry for Slovene nationals or foreigners with temporary or permanent residence in Slovenia, individuals with a maximum 3-day old negative COVID-19 test results or anyone with body temperature below 37,5 degrees and no clear evidence of coronavirus infection symptoms. An additional temporary border crossing Robič has been opened where Slovene nationals working in Italy can cross over with an official letter from their employer.
Austria: As of 25 March, 13 checkpoints have been set up along the Slovene-Austrian border. Nationals and foreigners holding a maximum 3-day old negative COVID-19 test results or anyone with body temperature below 37,5 degrees and no clear evidence of coronavirus infection symptoms are all allowed entry.
Hungary: Entering Slovenia from Hungary is possible via three checkpoints and all vehicles on the Hungarian side are examined. Upon entering Slovenia, no other measures are being taken except for drivers keeping away from each other and carrying protective gear.
Croatia: The Croatian government has announced partially opening its borders to Slovenia starting May 18th.

Peer-to-Peer lending is one of my favorite ways to invest money, especially because it can be completely automated and the returns are great. I am often asked what are my favorite platforms to invest in, which is why I decided to write this article in which I'll tell you what are my four favorite Peer-to-Peer lending platforms.
You will notice that all of those platforms are located in Europe. Indeed, as a European resident, I can't, for example, invest in platforms in the US, and I am of course only recommending platforms I am using myself. However, most of those platforms accept investors from outside of Europe. Here is an overview of my current top four platforms in Europe:

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is standing by his insult towards a Quebec-based far-right group.
Trudeau didn't name the group directly but said its members were "dumdums" during a speech Monday night in Quebec City honouring victims of the 2017 mosque shooting in that city.
The prime minister spoke out against racism as well as the "dumdum" members of the group who walk around with images of dog paws on their clothing, which is the symbol of La Meute.
A member of La Meute replied to Trudeau Tuesday on the group's Facebook page by hurling insults at the prime minister.
Trudeau told reporters today in Ottawa he stood by his comments and would always denounce people who aren't building a better society open to everyone.
La Meute is a secretive group that is harshly critical towards Islam and denounces multiculturalism.
The group has protested the arrival of thousands of Haitians from the U.S. who have applied for refugees status in Canada in 2017.

Need For Speed - The Run
A new Need For Speed game is around the corner. It is described as "an illicit, high-stakes race across the country with no rules or no allies. As you fight with the notorious drivers on the country's most dangerous roads, all you have is your driving skills and the determination to outrun them all.
Release Date: 15th November, 2011
A new Need For Speed game is around the corner. It is described as "an illicit, high-stakes race across the country with no rules or no allies. As you fight with the notorious drivers on the country's most dangerous roads, all you have is your driving skills and the determination to outrun them all. The only way to get back your life is to be the first to reach New York from San Francisco". The game is named "The Run".
Need For Speed "The Run" is quite an experiment. The game is being developed by Black Box and will be published by EA Games. The game isn't just about races and cars, but about a story. This game promises nothing less than a Hollywood drama and, for the first time ever, NFS fans will see outside car action. It has been heard that only 10% of the entire game will be out of the car but considering all the previous editions, this will be a huge leap for the NFS series. Though there is not much info about the story, we know for sure that the protagonist is named "JACK" and he has to reach New York as soon as possible. An exciting move is the open-road gameplay as opposed to the open-world gameplay that has become synonymous to the NFS series. Another welcome move is the focus on point-to-point racing instead of the hackneyed circuit races.
Enough said! Let's watch the official announcement trailer.
The demo that's available to play, starts with our protagonist "Jack" blazing through a race, which is thwarted when an SUV smashes his vehicle. Then, Jack blazes out of his car, trying to escape. You perform a lot of parkour style stunts to get away, only to see yourself cornered by a police car and two policemen. You trade hard punches and kicks with the policemen and steal their car with the goal of escaping the streets. Now, against a countdown timer and with a helicopter blasting bullets from up top, you need to weave your way through the streets to get out of the city. Eventually, after all the concentration and effort you put to escape, you meet with an accident which sees the need of performing quick combo presses to get out of the way of an oncoming train. Here's a video of the demo.
Though the gameplay is quite slick and engaging, the sudden cinematic cut scenes break your rhythm, even though they are sure to impress you. The graphics are absolutely mind-blowing, thanks to DICE's Frostbite 2.0 engine. Yes! 'The Run' becomes the first non-shooter game to use the Frostbite engine! The game truly delivers unrivaled levels of visual details, along with a fantastic user involvement. Also making its comeback is the Autoblog feature. You might outrun the AI drivers but can you outrun your friends? This is where the game engages the user. With the need to beat your friends, you will keep trying to knock off every single second of your time. The game also gives a multiplayer option. And here is the best part, you no longer have to wait in the lobby while a race is on, you can directly join the race that are in progress. Phew! Now isn't that a relief?
You guys are longing to see more action, aren't you? Here is one last video that was recently released to show the focus on the point-to-point gameplay.
Curious to know which cars have been included in this series? So far there have been only 10 cars officially released. They are - AUDI R8 COUPÉ 5.2 FSI QUATTRO, BMW E92 M3 GTS, BMW M3 E30 SPORT EVOLUTION, CHEVROLET CAMARO ZL1, DODGE CHALLENGER R/T, FORD MUSTANG BOSS 302, FORD SHELBY GT500 SUPER SNAKE, MAZDA MX-5, MCLAREN MP4-12C and the NISSAN FAIRLADY 240Z.
It was recently announced that there will a
Need For Speed: The Run - Limited Edition
. This Edition will see the inclusion of three supercars - the Lamborghini Aventador, Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and Porsche 911 Carrera S - and 5 exclusive challenges that will pit these monsters against each other.
I am a huge NFS fan and, let me tell you, this edition is something that I am absolutely eager to get my hands on. The game is scheduled to release on 15th of November, 2011, till then keep an eye on their official website.

Why did this golf grip win the first place?
Because this is a product of top quality, that can be applied to any standard-sized golf club.
№2 – Karma Neion II Grip Kit
Why did this golf grip come in second place?
Because these are great golf clubs for their price, but I wished they used a better material.
№3 – Karma Velvet Midsize
Why did this golf grip take third place?
Because they provide a good and secure grip, but the set does not include neither solvent nor tape.
Can you sandpaper golf grips?
Yes, some players do that to prolong life of worn golf grips. If you want to do it, use very coarse grit sandpaper. Keep in mind, that this is only a temporary measure and if your grip is in bad condition it is better to renew it.
Do golf grips have to be round?
Absolutely not. There are ribbed grips that are as popular as round ones (among both professionals and beginners). It is just a matter of taste, which type to use.
Do bigger golf grips help?
It only depends on the player. If you have troubles with your current grip size, you should try both bigger and smaller grips and find out, which fits better for you.
How do I know if I need larger golf grips?
It is easy to check. Use your usual grip and look at your longest finger tips. If you chose the right size, they should be only touching the pad at the base of the thumb. You need a larger grip, if your fingers dig in too much.
What is the best stickum for golf grips?
I prefer this one:
What are the benefits of soft golf grips?
Soft golf grips are good for golfers who play a lot. In my opinion, they are a bit more comfortable than solid ones, though they tend to wear out quicker.
What is the difference between standard and midsize golf grips?
Midsize golf grips are larger as compared to standard ones. It is important, that you can simply built up the latter by using grip tape, but there is no way to reduce the width of a midsize grip (this is why I recommend beginners to choose standard grips).
What is the difference between 0.580 and 0.600 golf grips?
This numbers describe the diameter of club's core (open end of the grip). The difference between them is rather insignificant for beginners and only matters for professional golfers. Depending on the size grip provides slightly thicker or thinner hold.
How long do golf grips last?
Well, it depends on your playstyle, how often you play, climate in your region and the grip itself. If you play regularly, even professional golf grips will not last for long. For extremely hot or humid climate you would have to replace them every six months if you play four times a week or more and every nine months if you are playing three times a week or less. If you regularly play in moderate climate, renew grip at least once in a year.
Do weighted golf grips work?
Yes. You should try to wrap a simple piece of tape around the end of your grip. It may help you to flatten your lie angle, ease center contact and narrow down dispersion, as a result improving your accuracy.
How does golf grip tape work?
It is applied directly to the golf club shaft during grip renewal in order to make it thicker. It also provides better fixation.
How long do golf grips take to dry?
Leave it for a few hours – afterwards it should be safe to use.
How do you take golf grips off?
If you do not need to save your golf grip – simply cut it. If you want to save it for future usage, you can use an air compressor and blow it off. Remember, that you need to place your club in a vise with a rubber insert to avoid damaging the shaft.
What are the benefits of weak golf grip?
Weakened grip provides the golf ball with additional back spin, reducing the distance that it travels upon landing. It may be a disadvantage for beginners, but it let's professional golfers to have more control over the ball.
Are ribbed golf grips legal?
Yes, but the maximal height of ribs is limited to 0.040 inches according to United States Golf Association.
What type of solvent to use for golf grips?
Usually solvent is included with golf grip bundles, but if you have to buy it separately, try this one:
How to install golf grips?
First of all, remove the old grip and grip tape. Now place your club shaft in a vise clamp and wrap the end of it with double-sided tape (cut it to the length of the grip). Pour some solvent into the open end of the grip and carefully slide it on and remove your club from the vise. Wait a couple of hours, and it will be ready to use!
What type of golf grip is better: driver vs iron?
Objectively speaking, there are no real difference between them. Either one will work good – choose whatever you like better.
What are the benefits of undersize golf grips?
This is just one of the possible sizes of golf grips. It gives absolutely no benefits as compared with other sizes.
What is the importance of golf grips?
This is the only part of golf club that you are touching during the game, so it cannot be unimportant. According to "Golf Magazine", you lose five shots a round when you are playing the wrong size grip. Your swing directly depends on it – so choose it wisely and try different options before making the final decision.
What golf grips do pros use the most?
Most professional golfers use Golf Pride's Tour Velvet or Green Victory grips.
What are the best golf grips for large hands?
If you have really large hands, choose oversized golf grips. My friend uses these ones:
How to clean golf grips?
I use simple water and soap. Do not use bleach or other strong chemicals – it may ruin the color of trip!
What are golf club grips made of?
Golf club grips are made of:
- Plastic or polymer (comes in many various colors, but not so durable and sturdy);
- Rubber (feels soft);
- Leather Golf Grips.
How long does it take to change a golf grip?
You will need about fifteen minutes to completely remove old grip and change it with a new one.
Why should I change golf club grips?
There are many reasons. You might want to replace the standard sized stock grip with a different size, which will fit better for you. You can also customize it: choose material, design, colors and texture. And, finally, you need to replace worn-out golf grips if you want to show better results.
Do golf grips need tape?
Yes, unless manufacturer stated otherwise. Double-sided tape is great: its easy to apply and very useful, since the grip itself almost does not move.
What are the best golf grips for wet weather?
Whenever I go to play golf when there is a chance of rain, I always use full cord grips and synthetic gloves. There is a place where you can buy wet-grip gloves – do it for maximum effectiveness.
Can golf grips be recycled?
Yes, you can install used golf grips on your club (but I would not recommend you do it, unless it is necessary).

We all start somewhere.
I remember the day I had $1,000 and thought it would be a good idea to invest it in the stock market.
I had a 401(k) and a Roth IRA, so I was familiar with the mechanics of the stock market, mutual funds and index funds, and how everything fit together. I stayed away from the public markets in a taxable brokerage account because I didn't want to deal with the taxes (they're near trivial, just keep records). I don't know if this is why so few Americans own stock but I do know it held me back.
By the time I was ready to dip my toe into the market, I had about $3,500 and wasn't sure what to do next.
If I were giving my 20-year-old self advice on how to proceed, here's what I would tell him…
Don't get scared off by the financial jargon. I'll try my best to explain them as we go!
My Investing Approach
Everything in life is about having a consistent, repeatable approach. If I don't explain the philosophy and approach, it's easy to get confused if the steps don't line up.
When you don't have a lot to invest, you need to find cheap and low (time) maintenance investments. You want cheap investments, which cost little or nothing to buy or sell because you have very little cash. You can't afford to pay even $5 a trade because one round trip (buy and sell) will cost you $10, or 1% of your assets. It's like another tax, one that will be charged even if you lose money.
You want low maintenance investments because you should be setting and forgetting. At this stage, your time is better served to accumulate more assets to invest, rather than "managing" the investments you have. For now, skip real estate, tax liens, angel investing/private placements, hard money loans, and any of the non-traditional investment options.
With $1,000, it's just not worth your time to invest in those more exotic areas. There's plenty of time for that later.
Before you invest a penny, get your financial affairs in order.
At a minimum:
- Fully fund your emergency fund.
- Pay off all high interest debt.
- Contribute to a Roth IRA and/or 401(k) with an employer's match.
- Save for other short term savings goals (but put them in safe short term investments).
#1 and #2 are "defensive" moves. You need an emergency fund to protect yourself and paying off high-interest debt is the highest risk-free rate of return you'll ever see.
#3 is an "offensive" move and both types of investment vehicles offer an advantage you don't get with a taxable investment. With the Roth IRA, you get tax free growth. With a 401(k) and employer match, you get an immediate risk free return on contributions. Use both.
#4 speaks to the idea that investable assets should be left alone for at least five years. If you need it in a year or two, it should not be invested in anything risky.
Guiding Principles
My approach is informed by these guiding principles:
- Keep costs low. Investing with just $1,000 is challenging because transaction costs can be expensive. Nowadays, plenty of brokerages offer free trades. I use Ally Invest and they're now free for U.S. stock, ETFs, and options. If you pay $4.95 per trade then each buy and sell will cost you $9.90. $9.90 on $1,000 is 0.99% of your total assets. That means every investment has to appreciate at least 0.99% before you break even and you're paying $5 to add to the holding. Here are brokers that do not charge sales commissions.
- Your biggest asset is your time. If you don't have a lot to invest, you shouldn't be spending your time looking for investments. You should still try to learn as much as you can, but you shouldn't be analyzing opportunities. You should be earning more money to invest. Grow your nest egg.
- Don't gamble, this is a long game. When you have a little in the market, there's a tendency to want to be risky and gamble more. Fight that temptation because this is a multi-decade game. Doubling your money on a hot stock tip might feel great but how many times can you do that before you get crushed? Probably not enough to last 40 years. And remember, the best performing accounts at Fidelity were the ones that were forgotten!
OK, so you have $1,000 — what now?
Three Options for Beginning Investors
- Treasury Securities – Bills, notes, bonds, TIPS – these are offered by the United States Treasury and are fixed income investments. You buy the bonds and they pay you a regular interest rate on a regular basis. They're backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government.
- Certificates of Deposit (CD) – A CD is offered by your bank. It's backed by your bank and the FDIC, up to $250,000.
- Public Markets – Essentially "everything else" that is regulated by the government to include stocks, bonds, etc.
The first two are conservative, risk-free investment, but they get your money into something while you accumulate more capital. In the current interest rate environment (Dec 2015), they won't get you much.
The third is where we will spend most of our discussion.
Treasury Securities
These are Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). They're all debt instruments backed by the "full faith and credit" of the United States. They're also going to give you very little in terms of interest.
Sometime in the future, when rates are better, give Series I Bonds a look. Series I bonds are 30-year bonds whose interest rate is determined by a fixed and variable rate. The fixed-rate is set when you buy the bond and the variable rate changes every six months based on inflation (CPI-U) data. The equation is public information but I always turn to Jonathan at MyMoneyBlog for his bi-annual updates on Series I Bond interest rates.
You buy these through the Department of the Treasury's website – Treasury Direct.
Certificates of Deposit
These are the ones you get at your bank. If you chose this route, just get one at your bank. While it's generally prudent to research CD rates, the difference for this small of a balance won't matter. You're better off using this time in some other way.
Public Markets
Now we're getting to the sauce.
To invest in the public markets, you have three options. You can invest directly with a single company, work with a brokerage, or use a "Robo-advisor."
Direct Stock Purchase Plans
Direct stock purchase plans are exactly what they sound like – you buy shares of a company's stock from the company. Not every company offers this but the ones that do often go through the Computershare Trust Company.
For example, Coca-Cola is available under these terms. One time purchases have a minimum of $500 but ongoing automatic investments can be as low as $50. The fees are lower than a brokerage and will get you into individual stock positions, so it's often better than a brokerage if you have a specific stock in mind.
Stock Brokerage
A traditional stock brokerage account can be a challenge with $1,000 because of the commissions. Every purchase (learn the different types of order types) will come at a non-trivial cost relative to your assets. In the beginning, I recommend skipping individual stocks and going with funds. There's nothing wrong with individual stocks, I hold a lot of dividend stocks, but the costs are too high at this point. I would go with a mutual fund company that won't charge me to accumulate more shares of their funds.
If you open an account with a large mutual fund company like Vanguard or Fidelity, you can get commission-free access to their ETFs. All account holders at Vanguard can buy and sell Vanguard ETFs absolutely free. Fidelity account holders can buy and sell many iShares ETFs and Fidelity ETFs for free.
If you want free trades and don't want to use a smartphone only brokerage, consider Ally Invest. I have an account with them and have long been a fan. Free trades with no minimums and a suite of useful tools. If you want to get into stock options (not recommended if you have just $1,000), they're a good brokerage for that as well.
(here is our full review of Ally Invest)
A "robo-advisor" is a relatively new creation within the last few years. They act as a computerized financial advisor and determine your asset allocation using an algorithm. You deposit your funds with a robo-advisor company and they invest it, charging you a small advisory fee on top of the underlying fund/etf fees.
We'll go in greater detail on investing through funds/ETFs and Roboadvisors.
Do It Yourself with Funds
If you want to do it yourself, go with a big mutual fund company like Vanguard or Fidelity. Vanguard has no account fee if you opt for electronic statements and has a minimum of $1,000 if you use their Target Retirement Funds or their STAR fund ($3,000 minimum otherwise). Fidelity will not charge you an account fee and has a minimum of $2,500. If you only have a thousand dollars, Vanguard is your best option here.
With Vanguard, you still pay fees in the funds themselves, expressed as an expense ratio. The Target Retirement 2050 Fund has an expense ratio of 0.15% and the Vanguard STAR Fund has an expense ratio of 0.31%. Both are higher than Vanguard's index funds (the 500 Index Fund has a ratio of 0.04%), but those two funds have low minimums.
If you have $3,000, I'd go with an index fund and my money is in Vanguard funds.
Vanguard also offers a Personal Advisor Service where you can speak with an advisor to come up with an asset allocation to help you mean your financial goals. It's an affordable service that only costs 0.30% on top of the underlying Vanguard fund fees.
Using Robo-Advisors
The three most well known advisors are Future Advisor, Wealthfront, and Betterment. (see a head to head comparison between Betterment and Wealthfront) As always, fees are important and these companies charge an advisory fee on top of the investments they put you in. In all cases, they are cheaper than a human advisor.
Here's how they break down fee-wise with just $1,000 to invest:
- Betterment: If you're willing to automatically deposit $100 per month, it's just an 0.35% advisory fee for assets under $10,000. If you don't auto-deposit, it will cost you $3 per month. The fees drop to 0.25% when you exceed $10,000 in assets. It drops to 0.15% when you exceed $100,000 in assets. Zero trade fees, transaction fees, and rebalancing fees. (pricing page)
- Wealthfront: They do not charge a fee on the first $10,000 in assets (we have a promotion with them that will give you the first $15,000 of assets managed for free), then it charges 0.25% annually on amounts over $10,000. This is an advisory fee on top of the fees of the underlying ETFs, which they say average 0.12%. No transaction or trade fees either. (see our Wealthfront Review)
- Future Advisor: Recently acquired by BlackRock, the world's largest investment manager, FutureAdvisor charges 0.5% advisory fee on top of the underlying fees of the investments.
Should you use a Robo-advisor? That's up to you. These didn't exist when I first started investing so I went with Vanguard and their low $1,000 minimums. I've stuck with them, though I've mixed in some dividend stocks at Vanguard during the market crash.
These are incredibly cheap services. Wealthfront is free up to $10,000 in assets (with our promotional link, you get $15,000 managed free). Even if you chose Betterment and paid 0.35%, that's just $35 a year on a $10,000 balance. $35 for an algorithm to take away the stress and headache of picking your asset allocation (and tax loss harvest for you) might be worth it.
If it were me, I'd stick with something simple and focus on accumulating more assets. Simple means go with a robo-advisor or a target retirement fund from Vanguard/Fidelity. Once I hit $10,000 in investable assets, I re-evaluated how I want to invest. The goal would be to have an account at one of the big mutual fund companies and be invested in low fee funds/ETFs.
What about other investments?
I'm sure you've considered other investments, here are the ones I've done and my thoughts about them:
- Angel investing: It's gambling. You'll probably lose your money. Don't invest in your friends unless you're willing to lose it (and think it won't affect your relationship). My friend once told me he invested in his friend's company as a way of hedging his own envy — if his friend did well, he'd share in it and not be envious. If it tanked, well his friend would've lost his company and he would've just lost a little money, can't really be bummed about the relative outcomes. Not a bad way to think about it.
- Hard money loans: Risky but can be pretty lucrative, it's hard to find good folks to loan to so it's harder to scale.
- Real estate: Not low maintenance and there's a steep learning curve. Good way to build wealth but not when you have just $1,000 to start. There are plenty of resources that will teach you how to invest in real estate with no money down or flipping houses, but unless you plan on going gung-ho into this arena, I'd work on something else. (an exception to this might be crowdfunding real estate sites, but even that I'd stay away from initially)
- Tax liens: I only researched tax liens, I never went to any auctions or went through the process itself. The returns seem good but there's something about the potential negative karmic energy involved.
For now, stick with the public markets, accumulate more assets, and then re-evaluate.
What About Strategy X, Y, or Z
If you read enough financial literature, you've probably seen a variety of strategies. Some of them are based on looking for leading indicators, others require you to try to follow momentum or use other technical indicators – should you be paying attention?
I wanted to get the expertise of someone who knew more so I turned to Professor Sina Ehsani, Assistant Professor of Finance at the College of Business at Northern Illinois University. He co-authored a paper with Juhani Linnainmaa, Professor of Finance and Business Economics at USC Marshall's School of Business titled "Factor Momentum and the Momentum Factor" which studied momentum factor.
1. Most experts suggest investors put their money in a simple mix of low-cost index funds but can individual investors do better by adjusting their strategy given what you've researched?
Thanks for your interest in our research! We don't see our findings as a substitute for the "mix of low-cost ETFs." Low-cost ETFs is perhaps the best advice to give to the individual investor. Factor momentum can become a part of the (diversified) portfolio for the sophisticated investor who already trades factors. For that investor, our main advice is to invest more in winner factors because winner factors tend to do better than other factors in near future. We also show that investing in winner factors is, after adjusting for risk, a lot better than investing in winner stocks.
2. What are some tools an individual can use to identify some areas of opportunity?
I think your question here is related to the implementation of factor momentum. Invesco issues a "factor snapshot" report every month. There may be other resources that I am not aware of.
Page 4 of this file displays a chart that ranks some selected factors based on last year performance. For example, low vol and quality were the outperforming factors of the past year by the time of the report. We predict that, on average, the winning factors (in this case low vol and quality) will outperform others in near future. I think there are ETFs for all of the factors of the chart. Small (IWM) vs. large (SPY, IVV,…), value (IVE) vs. growth (IVW), low volatility (SPLV), and quality (SPHQ). The active part of the portfolio can allocate more to the ETFs that track the winner factors.
Is there risk in following the herd? The rise of ETFs has increased volatility in their underlying stocks, as you discovered in your 2014 paper, so does investing in them increase risk?
Once again, this advice is for active portfolios that trade frequently. The "buy and hold low-cost ETFs" is still the best advice to give to retail investors.
It's interesting to note that the experts still advice low-cost ETFs but there are factors that can help improve your returns if you are willing to put in the study. Factors that outperformed last year are more likely to perform well this year. Picking the winning factors is a better strategy than trying to pick the winning stocks – a powerful insight.
That said, it also shows you the level of detail the experts are using. If you aren't willing to go this deep, best stick to low-cost funds!

Check out the five most irresistible deer attractants known to us!
At some point or another, many of us serious hunters have tried at least one, if not several, of the many deer attractants available on the market today.
Whether we're watching our favorite deer hunting show, reading our favorite hunting magazine or scrolling our social media accounts during the annual rut, we can't seem to avoid the latest pitch for the next attractant on the market that promises to bring in the big bucks.
In the competitive deer attractant industry, a few companies have proven their value and, more importantly, have produced results for the hardcore deer hunter. If you're itching for some great whitetail buck hunting, there are indeed ways to improve even the most ideal baiting situations with the best deer attractants for many types of deer.
Before you shell out more money, we put together this list of some of the top deer attractants that drive big whitetail bucks crazy just in time for hunting season.

2. Apple-Flavored Attractants
Apple-flavored attractants have been around for years and many long-time hunters say deer still love them over anything else.
A variety of apple-flavored products have been created throughout the years including apple-scented corn, apple-scented liquids and apple-scented blocks. See apple-flavored attractants from Antler King.
3. Orange-Flavored Deer Corn
Farmed and produced by Orange Corn Company based in Texas, orange-flavored and scented deer corn has quickly become the go-to solution for attracting big, mature, elusive bucks.
In this day and age, very few companies can say they produce 100 percent of their product by the time it reaches the hands of their consumer.
From the seed to the shelf, Orange Corn Company cultivates, grows and harvests their corn crop on the nutrient-rich grounds of Rio Medina, Texas, where it's sacked, packed and shipped to your nearest retailer.
From hunters of all ages looking to harvest that trophy of a lifetime to wildlife photographers seeking that perfect close-up shot, Orange Corn Company is revolutionizing the deer mineral attractant industry with luring products made right here in the U.S.A.
4. C'mere Deer
C'mere Deer was established to give serious hunters a sporting chance at harvesting America's most popular game animal.
The formulation for these unique and effective products was achieved by avid deer hunters in their ongoing quest to find deer attractants that don't rely on estrus-based mixtures or are effective during just one portion of the deer season.
C'mere Deer currently has one of the largest offerings of deer attractants on the market today. See their products at Bass Pro Shops.
5. Tecomate
Tecomate's mission:To inform, equip and assist sportsmen with dreams of owning and managing their own recreational property and a desire to be better stewards of the land and wildlife God entrusted to us.
The Tecomate Food Plot System has ushered in a new era in wildlife management; one in which landowners themselves greatly improve their wildlife populations and habitat while increasing their hunting success and outdoor enjoyment.
The concept is simple. By planting the right plants in the right way, food plots can provide a food source for bigger bucks, attract and hold deer in a specific area, and relieve pressure on the native habitat so that it actually improves. And, it does so for the benefit of all wildlife species!
View Tecomate products on Amazon.
Hopefully one of these high-quality scent attractants proves to be your local bucks' favorite and they will flock to your treestands or food plots. Used in conjunction with trail cameras and other hunting gear, you'll almost certainly see a difference.
Happy hunting!

Getting a borrower loan is hardly a problem in today's busy times. If they don't borrow a bank, they turn to a non-bank company, enter a few details, and the fast borrower is theirs.
Online payday loan lenders get you cash fast in 3 easy steps
An online payday loan direct lender for borrowers offers favorable terms just for those with a record in the debtor's register. Non-bank companies are not supervised by the Czech National Bank and therefore can freely regulate the conditions for obtaining a loan. They do not have to be afraid to apply for a loan even if they have execution. A quick loan for borrowers is intended for all ages 18 to 65. Anyone with at least some provable income and a bank account can really get a loan. It is not seen in the registers of debtors, nor in the registers of executions, which are mainly reviewed by banks. You can earn money in a few minutes of submitting your application. The approval process is mostly computer-controlled.
You can use an online payday loan direct lender for anything. You don't use it for anyone because it's a no-purpose loan. You can go on holiday. You will receive the money within 24 hours if you have an account with a bank other than the company and within 15 minutes if the same. If you do not want money on your account, they can send it to you by a postal order or you can choose it at the Sazka terminal. We can also recommend quick loans for borrowers to students who do not have too much income, and therefore the loan is often the only way to get money to study. Likewise pensioners.
Quick loan for borrowers can be secured
A quick loan for borrowers can be secured by real estate and you can get up to several hundred thousand crowns in a few days. Often you can get part of the loan when you sign a contract, but it depends on the company's conditions and each is set differently. As a quick loan for borrowers, we can also list non-bank revolving loans, where you will receive your money within two days and after six regular installments, you will automatically increase your loan. Many people take this as company fraud. It is, therefore, necessary to read properly in terms of loans and to apply for revocation. However, the most popular quick loans for borrowers are payday loans when they get money in minutes. It is a relatively small amount, but they often rip these people off their heels when there is not enough money for a school for children. You must return your money within thirty days. If everything is fine, they will be happy to lend you again and even more. Interest is disproportionately high on the amount of the loan, which is the absence of evidence of a pile of documents and access to the registers. However, if you have an execution or an unpaid loan, do not count on others. The company will not increase your loan or provide the other one at the same time until the debt is fully repaid. It protects you from further indebtedness, which often ends with execution.

What's better than one classic rock band from Illinois? Why, two classic rock bands from Illinois of course. REO Speedwagon and Chicago have joined forces for a co-headlining tour which will run for the month of August. Both bands careers have spanned the decades, selling countless millions of records between them. Chicago's commercial peak came with 1976's Number 1 single If You Leave Me Now, while REO are maybe most well known for their power-ballad Can't Fight this Feeling Anymore, which has been covered by everyone from Russell Brand (in the movie Rock of Ages) to Glee.
The two groups will be performing their own mini-sets before joining together for the encore. The only problem will be choosing which tracks to pluck from their two mammoth catalogs.

Carpet Fitting Tip
After purchasing a new carpet kit, remove the pieces from the box and lay them out flat. This will help take the folds and creases of packaging out of the rug before it goes into the car. If the weather permits, lay the carpet outside in the direct sun with the plastic backing facing up- allowing the sun's heat to soften the mold and ease in the installation.

Today at work, I was writing an email, and my cursor just upped and ran away from me. Not even kidding, it just spaced right off the page. And then my computer froze. So I ran and got the IT guy, and turns out the driver on my keyboard and mouse had surprise updated, and needed to be reset. But it happened to me and I feel I need to commiserate with Tami.

Adolescents might obtain information about sexual health topics from a variety of sources past formal instruction. Here we take into account the function of parents, health care suppliers and the media as potential sources of sexual health info for teens. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Growth (OECD) found that the U.S. ranked poorly by way of years of potential life misplaced (YPLL), a statistical measure of years of life lost below the age of 70 that were amenable to being saved by health care. Among OECD nations for which knowledge can be found, the United States ranked third last for the health care of girls (after Mexico and Hungary) and fifth last for males (Slovakia and Poland additionally ranked worse).
Initially he was too busy attempting to survive to even consider reading a novel…especially one that told a tale he knew all to properly and would only depress him further. Talking to him I could see fear for the way forward for his family etched on his face. It was mirrored within the quiet panic in his eyes, as he regarded languidly off at the passing country side out the window on my aspect of the bus. He confessed that he had no idea what he would do if he did not find work in Palatka.
Just a few sneaky Petes knocking on doors tell'n them if they don't move the automobile within the hearth lane it is going to be towed. Ambulances want entrance every now and then. Those are the ones who snicker once you stroll to the mailbox on a Thur afternoon. Another tip is to make sure you inform those single ladies, many in the 70's and later their roses are much, significantly better than yours (wink).
Centricity EMR options have been setting standards for ambulatory and enterprise EMR options for greater than twenty years. President Donald Trump intends to appoint the previous govt vice president and CEO of Texas A&M's Health Science Center to a U.S. Department of Health and Human Providers leadership place, based on a White House announcement.

Katherine Restrepo, health analyst for the John Locke Basis , notes that whereas that percentage may be correct it may be deceptive. These on the excessive end of eligibility (as much as $ninety five,400 for a household of four) get small tax credits that do little to decrease prices, she says. The primary example states an workplace visit for a main care doctor (EG: household doctor, gynecologist) has a $30 copay, while a specialist (EG: dermatologist, urologist, and so on.) has a $45 copay.

Charlottesville, Va. – Virginia won the doubles point and secured straight-set wins in the first four singles matches, rolling to a 7-0 victory over Georgia Tech in an Atlantic Coast Conference men's tennis match Friday at the Boars Head Sports Club.
Tech (11-9, 3-6 ACC) lost its fifth straight conference match, while the Cavaliers (17-3, 9-0) remained undefeated in ACC play and in first place.

Nitro Fun, one of the newer members of the Monstercat family, has given his own spin to The Disco Fries' Final Fantasy-inspired single "Ramuh" by giving it an heavily electro-charged remix. He keeps the original 8-bit sound but builds his own video game-tinged melody on top, and builds up the energy with synths and some trap beats. Check out the remix below and get your free download.
The Disco Fries also released an animated video to go with their track. In the video, duo Nick and Danny find themselves slaying zombies with the help of Final Fantasy's Ramuh himself, and the music perfectly accompanies the video game-vibe of the zombie battle scenes.

The Weatherby Mark V Varmintmaster rifle was introduced in 1963 as a lightened and scaled down version of the standard Mark V. This was acheived by reducing the size of most of the standard Mark V parts by 20%. It featured a 5-round internal box magazine with a hinged floorplate, a 2-position bolt-mounted safety, and was factory drilled and tapped for optics. The Mark V Varmintmaster was made in West Germany for a total of 9 years from 1963 to 1972. This rifle is chambered in the very sought-after .224 Weatherby Magnum. The bore in the 24" inch sporter style barrel is excellent. There is no visible pitting or erosion, and the rifling still looks prominent and sharp. There are some very minor handling/storage marks/dings in the wood but nothing that stands out.

Spiker (called ShinShin in the Japanese manual), located in Hill Top Zone, are little red insects with a large spike on its head. Sometimes they are found walking on the ground and fire the spike upwards when you jump over them, or on the ceiling and fire the spike when you pass under them. Once they lose the spike, though, they're almost harmless. Just spin attack to finish the job off.
The Sonic 3 enemy Turbo Spiker is evidently an improved model of this Spiker; it moves faster and fires its spike at a slight angle, but its behavior is otherwise identical.
