After a long chilly winter season, summer is the time to bask in the glory of the warm temperatures. Beach getaways, idyllic vacations, fishing, boating, strolling in your flip-flops by the lakeside, or splashing in the pool – summer is all about staying outdoors.
As your body gravitates towards the heat and humidity of the scorching summers, profuse sweating can drain your energy levels to a minimal. Warm temperatures can increase the risk of dehydration as your body loses a major portion of fluids, vitamins, and minerals through sweat.
A quick fix to this is consuming local seasonal produce of fruits and vegetables throughout the season.
There is an upsurge of fresh fruits and vegetables in the local markets during the summer time. Loaded with a high percentage of water, vitamins, and minerals, summer harvest can help you steer clear of the risks steamrolled by the rising mercury levels.
Common Summer Illnesses and Health Concerns
Aside from all the sunshine and brightness, the summer season also brings along some common health-related issues such as dehydration, heat stroke, and digestive problems, among others.
Dehydration: Prolonged periods of exposure to warm temperatures and sunlight without maintaining a balance in your fluid outgo and fluid intake can lead to dehydration. The inability to replace the lost fluids can leave you dehydrated. Thirst, dizziness, headache, and vomiting are the symptoms of dehydration.
Perpetual periods of dehydration can result in fatigue, constipation, kidney stones, low blood pressure, and muscle cramps.
Hyperthermia: The soaring temperatures in the surrounding environment can heat the body to a higher degree. This condition is called hyperthermia, which involves a range of problems such as heatstroke and heat exhaustion.
The increased temperature can debilitate the body's strength to dissipate heat and maintain normal body temperature. Symptoms include hot flushed skin, fever, fatigue, muscle cramps, nausea, headache, and rapid breath.
Who Should Avoid Exposure to Heat?
Although summer is a time to enjoy and you cannot skip its beauty at any cost, the harsh temperatures can engender the risk of illnesses in:
- Young children
- Older adults
- Obese/overweight people
- People with some chronic medical conditions of the heart and lungs or with respiratory distress
- People who are prone to dehydration
- People working outdoors during hot weather
- People taking certain medicines that can hamper the body's ability to dissipate heat, including antidiarrheal pills, beta-blockers, anti-Parkinson's disease drugs, antihistamines, antidepressants, over-the-counter sleeping pills, and psychiatric drugs
Best Foods to Keep You Cool All Summer
While a slight inclination towards warmer temperatures makes summer a blessing, the heat and humidity that come along can up your risks of being struck by the season's curse. A recourse to foods to keep your body cool and hydrated is the plan you need to work on.
Incorporating your diet with foods that are abundant in nutrients and offer a boost in your fluid, vitamin, and mineral levels can help you enjoy the summer months most without being down with a bout of dehydration or heatstroke.
Listed below are 10 such foods to jazz up your energy levels during the summer.
1. Stay Cool with a Cucumber Salad
Cucumbers are chock-full of water, which makes it an ideal food choice to keep your body cool and refreshed.
Besides the high-water content, cucumbers also contain the enzyme erepsin, which is involved in digestion and keeps the intestinal tract healthy, especially helpful in summer when people complain a lot about poor digestion.
Plus, cucumbers contain vitamin C that helps protect the skin from ultraviolet (UV) sun rays and prevents wrinkles, sun damage, and more.[1][2]
- Enjoy a plate of cucumber salad as a cool and crunchy snack. You can also have cucumber soup or juice during the summer days.
2. Up Your Fluid and Electrolyte Levels with Coconut Water
Coconut water is a refreshing way to up your fluid and electrolyte levels during the hot summer days. Profuse sweating in sultry weather can deplete the water and essential mineral levels of your body.
Coconut water is a natural beverage packed with simple sugars, electrolytes, and minerals that help keep the body hydrated. A glass of coconut water can easily restore the electrolyte composition in body fluids. Plus, it may also aid in losing weight as it is low in fat, cholesterol, and chlorides. It keeps a person satiated for long and curbs food cravings.[3][14]
- Stay hydrated with coconut water this summer. Drink coconut water on an empty stomach in the morning to protect yourself from a heatstroke.
3. Drink Buttermilk
Ending a long, hot day in the sun by drinking buttermilk is a great way to combat dehydration and fatigue. Containing a huge amount of water and electrolytes, a glass of buttermilk can help you rehydrate your body. Short-term buttermilk consumption also reduces blood pressure in individuals.[4][5]
It also helps calm the stomach after a spicy meal and aids in digestion. Sweating, tiredness, muscle cramps, nausea, and headaches can also be reduced significantly by adding buttermilk to your diet. Plus, buttermilk is a great food for healthy skin.
- Replace your usual aerated drinks with 1 or 2 glasses of buttermilk daily.
4. Take a Sweet Treat of Watermelon
Watermelons are a whopping 92 percent of water, which makes them a perfect choice for your summer outings. Watermelon can contribute to your fluid intake by keeping your body well hydrated.
Also, watermelon provides plenty of antioxidants, including vitamins A and C and lycopene, which may help reduce the risk of complications from diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, high blood pressure, macular degeneration, and arthritis.[6]
- To keep your body cool and well hydrated during the hot summer months, munch on fresh watermelon daily. The refreshing and sweet taste of watermelon is liked by all, including children.
5. Take a Probiotic Shot of Greek Yogurt
Greek yogurt is a perfect solution to cool the body by helping in dissipating body heat during the summer. Well known for its calcium and protein contents, Greek yogurt aids in digestive health by providing beneficial microflora and helping in the smooth functioning of the digestive system.[7]
Greek yogurt can boost your immunity levels and aid in weight loss due to the unique protein and carbohydrate combination it offers.[8]
- You can eat a cup of Greek yogurt for a refreshing summer treat. You can also top it with fresh strawberries or raspberries for a tasty dessert.
6. Replenish Your Energy Levels with Citrus fruits
Stacked with water and vitamin C, citrus fruits such as sweet lime, oranges, and lemon can help you maintain the water and electrolyte balance in your body.
Citrus fruits are also excellent sources of copper and iron. Their rich composition confers anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antimicrobial, antioxidative, neuroprotective, and cardioprotective properties.
In addition, vitamin C intake can help prevent skin hyperpigmentation, black spots, and pimples as well as can reduce sun tan[9] in the summer months.
- Extract the juice of any citrus fruit and add a little salt and sugar to it to make a refreshing summer drink.
7. Give Yourself a Booster Dose of Kiwi
Kiwifruit is one of nature's perfect foods: low in calories, high in energy, and an excellent source of antioxidants – vitamin C, vitamin E, folate, and lutein.
The fruit is rich in fibers that offer numerous benefits to the digestive system in both healthy individuals as well as in those with constipation and other gastrointestinal disorders, including symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.[10]
- You can eat kiwi with the skin after properly washing it. If you don't like the skin, you can scoop out the green part with a spoon. Try fresh kiwi on breakfast cereal, pancakes, yogurt, or ice cream.
8. Relish Mouth-Watering Mangoes
Mangoes are rich in fiber that aids in digestion and also abundant in minerals and vitamins A, C, and E that are essential in maintaining good health. Readily available throughout the summer season, mangoes have a soothing and cooling effect that will keep you energized during the hot summer days.[11]
- You can eat both ripe and unripe mangoes to beat the summer heat. Eat ripe mangoes as a fruit snack or add the pulp to milk or yogurt and blend it for a tasty smoothie.
- You can boil green raw mangoes, extract the pulp, add it to a glass of cold water, and sprinkle in some black salt and roasted cumin powder. To sweeten it, you can add a little coconut sugar or some other natural sweetener. This drink is an excellent remedy for heat stroke and exhaustion that occur in the summertime.
9. Savor Tomatoes
Add a delicious and nutritious punch to your summer meals by including tomatoes. One medium tomato is approximately 95 percent water and helps keep the body hydrated.
Tomatoes are high in lycopene, a phytochemical that has potent antioxidant properties and can prevent your skin from sun damage. Other vital nutrients in tomatoes include potassium, folate, dietary fiber, manganese, magnesium, niacin, and vitamins B6, C, A, K, and E.[12]
- Add fresh tomatoes to salads, sandwiches, or soups to keep yourself healthy all year round. You can also drink tomato juice.
10. Add Zucchini to Your Dishes
Abundant in antioxidant vitamins C and A and energy-boosting B vitamins, zucchini is a flavorful and creamy-textured vegetable that can settle well in many meals. It can perk up your immunity levels, and it contributes towards a sharp eyesight.
It is also a source of vitamin K, choline, zinc, dietary fiber, phosphorus, potassium, folate, and magnesium, as well as omega-3 fatty acids.[13] It also helps keep insulin metabolism and blood sugar levels in balance.
- Add fresh, raw, or stir-fried zucchini to your salads, pastas, and wraps. You can also have baked, stuffed, or sautéed zucchini dishes.
Additional Tips
- Drink plenty of fluids. Avoid diuretics such as alcohol and caffeine.
- Avoid sugary aerated drinks.
- Allow proper ventilation in your home.
- Use air conditioners to reduce the room temperature.
- Wear loose, light-colored cotton clothes.
- Take showers and baths.
- Take regular breaks in between physical activity.
- Avoid going out in the sun and strenuous exercises during the hottest part of the day – between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.
- Cover your exposed body parts and wear sunscreen when going out in the sun.
- Avoid staying inside a parked car, and never leave children, pets, or those with special needs in a parked car, even for a short time. Soaring temperatures can become dangerous.
Closing Note
Summer is a much-awaited season primarily to engage in outdoor activities. However, the warm temperatures can cause dehydration, heatstroke, and heat exhaustion. To avoid the perils of high temperatures and enjoy the sunshine, it is of utmost importance to stay hydrated in order to maintain the fluid and electrolyte balance of your body.
To appreciate the joys of summer, pile up your plates with these bountiful advocates of health and nutrition in your summer fare and keep your fluid and electrolyte levels at an optimum.

About Course
Purification of soul depends on the purification of hearts. As per the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad sallahu'alaiyhi'wassalam that: "There lies within the body a piece of flesh. If it is sound, the whole body is sound; and if it is corrupted, the whole body is corrupted. Verily this piece is the heart.
(Bukhari and Muslim)
These are the teachings of our beloved Messenger of Allah sallahu'alaiyhi'wassalam that just by uprighting one organ of your body i.e. "the heart", the rest of the body organs will start becoming upright automatically. For Allah, your actions don't matter but your intentions do. And the origin of the intentions is our hearts. That's why Prophet Muhammad sallahu'alaiyhi'wassalam whenever sought steadfastness then He sallahu'alaiyhi'wassalam always prayed for the steadfastness of the heart. For the person who becomes steadfast in his intentions would remain steadfast in his actions too.
Come join us in our weekly sessions of "Purification of the Heart" and learn:
Topics Covered

The video shows off Malek's impressive Freddie Mercury impression, complete with his iconic strutting dance moves, his fist pumps to the crowd, and his magnetic, fluid stage presence. His movements line up almost perfectly with Mercury's performance, though it does offer some alternative perspectives.If you've seen Bohemian Rhapsody, you know that the Live Aid sequence is the grand climax of the film, occupying more than 20 minutes of its run-time. That dedication to the mimicry of one of the most famous live performances of all time is no doubt why the movie has been such a hit with audiences and industry voters. To date, Bohemian Rhapsody has grossed over $700 million worldwide – the highest total for any musical biopic ever – and has received numerous award nominations from the Golden Globes, the Screen Actors Guild, and more.The film debuts on digital services January 22 and Blu-ray and DVD on February 12, where you can re-live the Live Aid magic over and over.

I went to St. Louis this past weekend to visit my friend Marc. We were both traveling to Tunica, MS over the weekend. I had read about Lamberts on the internet and couldn't WAIT to visit. We got so much more than we expected!
What a fantastic meal with unbelievable service. The entire staff, full of a cast of characters, was a riot. The food was down-home delicious and I've already recommended it to several friends.
We could barely move when we were finished our meal, and joked about needing a wheelchair to get us outside. Your staff did not let us down!!! (See pictures)
Tell Kim we said thanks again!

The Olympic Games have started. Citius, Altius, Fortius. The official olympic motto. Latin for Faster, Higher, Stronger. I am by no means anywhere near olympic material (It's more probable, I'm not even allowed to say "I" and "olympic material" in the same sentence). That doesn't mean I have no goals. My goals do adhere to another olympic motto "The most important thing is not to win but to take part!" In another blog, I already mentioned my goal. To finish the Dam-tot-Damloop 2012.
One of my passions is being a volunteer for the Dutch organisation "Vereniging voor Gehandicapte Wintersporters" (Organisation for Disabled Winter sports). After last winter season, a new club house was build. Yesterday, all was ready to move all the material from the old location. And of course I worked hard. Maybe a bit too hard. In the evening, my shoulder was hurting like crazy. Don't know what I did but I did something wrong. Aside from hurting my shoulder, I bounced my shins on the edge of the loading floor of the moving truck. My first thought was: "There goes my endurance trainging which I moved to Sunday". Come Sunday morning I was stiff, a bit tired but I had to try. A good thing I did! My legs felt great. My shoulder still hurts but didn't bother me at all during my run and in general it felt GREAT :-D
My primary target for today was 75 minutes. If possible quicker than my last endurance run (7:17min/km). A third goal I had was pretty much out of my hands: Not receiving a stand-by call.... In my head I had my course laid out. It was based on the main "Het Lint" track with a little side track added around the Haarrijnse plas.
There is a tree on the 1.4km loop of the northen most subtrack of "Het Lint". The loop is right in front of my house so I use it in my runs quite a lot. That tree is usually a target for the end of my various training types.
After 75 minutes of running I knew the tree was only about 5 minutes away. Sooooo, I decided to go for those additional 5 minutes. IT FELT GREAT! It looks like I am going quite a bit faster than my schedule has planned for. In addition, my average pace was quicker than last week. The phone didn't ring during my run so I reached all 3 of my goals.
As I am ahead of my schedule, I can start working on my secondary target: averaging at least 5:50min/km during the Dam-tot-Damloop.
Next week, I hope to reach my endurance target of 95 minutes. Would be nice.
Stay tuned, till next blog.

One of the main aspects that concern users when they have a credit card has to do with the interest rate.
Many believe that interests 'eat them alive' and that is why they prefer not to have any plastic
The truth is that there are different options in the market and each one has a particular rate that depends on the user's profile; Even so, there are cases in which the interest rate changes and they end up charging another.
Why does the interest rate change?
First of all, the change is not without any reason, that is, there is a receipt and it has to do with what you do with the card . Many people are unaware that the interest rate on their card as "standard" applies to purchases, but this changes if they do otherwise. And, if you have cash from your plastic, the rate will be different and higher. That is why it is not recommended to use the card for this purpose.
What other time does it change?
The interest rate can also be modified when the bank makes certain adjustments, depending on market conditions. By law, this modification must be communicated and usually done through an email, notifying you that, for that new period, your rate goes from being "X" to being "Y". So, if you are one of those who ignores the bank's communications, you should start to stop doing so and pay attention to them.
Finally, if you are one of those who live to the limit and from time to time it is passed on the dates of the payments, you should know that once you fall into default, it is normal for another type of interest rate to apply. This rate is applied to the days of default or delay, and is different from the one you have for your purchases.
Those are three reasons why your rate may change and that you should know to give it a good handle. Also, do not forget that the market is constantly launching new options for users, so it is good to review the alternatives and check if there is a card with better conditions waiting for you.

Is It Ever Too Late To Start A New Business ?
As I write this I am surrounded by 'to do' lists and vast amounts of paperwork. All this chaos is related to just one thing – my new business, which is due to be launched within the next few weeks. After many tears and frustrations (mostly technical ones) I can see the finishing line in sight. This business idea has been swirling round my head for a year and I finally decided to stop thinking about it and JUST DO IT. Life is full of dreams that churn round inside us and most of the time we ignore them as just that – a dream. So my question today is – can you start a new business at ANY age ?
Of course, if you know me well you will know I am a positive person and so my answer would be a resounding YES ! Age is not relevant in our decision to start a new business. In fact the older generation carry a whole lot of experience and wisdom that the younger generation just don't have. I have just watched episode one of The Apprentice and was shocked at the lack of simple common sense with some of the candidates. It was funny but scary at the same time, that simple tasks could be handled so badly by seemingly intelligent people.
The age of fifty brings with it many different issues, especially for women. Our children have usually flown the nest and we find ourselves looking closely at our life, minus our family commitments. That often makes us reassess our working life and our financial issues. More importantly, this crucial stage in our life brings up emotional issues, especially those related to happiness.
We have all been in situations where we dislike our job, haven't we? It may be that we dislike the distance to work, we may hate the boss or we may simply resent the 9-5 dreary drudge. It is no surprise that the over 50 age category is the largest group for starting up their own business. I think this is no coincidence, as turning fifty is certainly a turning point for many, including me.
So what is my advice for those of you reading this who are keen to start a business, but may be hesitant or lacking self confidence? I cannot offer you solid business advice as I am not qualified to do that, but I can hopefully give you some positive thoughts that will help you.
OK, you need a plan. At least a plan of action to start with. Go buy a large notebook (the prettier the better) and write down your ideas, dreams, thoughts on your new business. EVERY idea is welcome, no matter how crazy they seem. This stage is all about getting the ideas out of your head and down on paper. Once the ideas are in black and white, then your idea starts to form a real basis for a viable business. This will then give you the kick start you need.
Find a friend who you know to be positive and encouraging. Talk to this friend about your ideas and get her / his guidance. Ask your friend to be part of your brainstorming session (see above) Sometimes our ideas get so muddled that we cannot see clearly and asking someone else can alleviate this issue. Remember this friend does not even have to be in business themselves. At this stage you are looking for someone with common sense and vision.
I am already an avid reader, but before launching into my business plan I read many books about business, marketing, accounts and how to succeed in business. I am still reading now as there is SO much to learn and I believe we can all learn something new every day. There are so many articles online that will help a new start up business. Don't forget to also look for things that will help your confidence and positivity. I watch a lot of TED Talks for inspiration and motivation.
Self belief and positivity go a long way in business. Even when you feel overwhelmed and out of your depth, try and pretend you feel otherwise. Self doubt is an unwelcome early visitor in the setting up of a new business for us all, but it is crucial that you show IT the door. You HAVE to believe that you will be successful and your business will thrive, otherwise you will project unnecessary negativity and your business will fail before it is even launched. I understand those feelings that creep in that try and sabotage us. Trust me, I have those feelings too. So, you have to dig deep and work out just how important this new business is to you. If you really want something then you CAN make it happen, but you have to be resilient and determined. In last weeks blog post I talked about creating your own dream board. I think this is crucial to someone just starting out in business. If you would like to read this post then just click here.
Life can be tough and sometimes you have to fight for what you want. It's not easy and it takes grit and determination to get to where you want to be. I am a great believer in trying. If you never try and put your idea into reality, then you will never know just how successful you could have been. There is no time like the present, whatever your age, so just DO IT ! We only get one shot at life, so if your dream is to open a tea room serving your famous home baked scones, then find a way to do it. I read recently of a lady who couldn't afford premises for her dream tea shop, so she actually opened her home every weekend as a tea room ! There is always a way.
Have you any dreams / ideas for a business? Are you keen to follow those dreams or are you happy just to dream? As always comment below or send me a message.
Until next time dear friends
Much love

While preparing information to write this 18-page essay, I made use of the library's many resources such as the online databases, loaning physical books, and using the interlibrary loaning system in order to get a book necessary for my research. Because of the length of this paper and the complex topic, extended research was required in order to find the specific information I needed to write about the themes of Greek tragedy. 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z The Influence of the Chorus in Aechylus' Oresteia : Visualizing ποιητικος & μίμησις Maeland, Idella http://hdl.handle.net/10294/9123 2020-05-05T16:47:09Z 2019-01-01T00:00:00Z The Influence of the Chorus in Aechylus' Oresteia : Visualizing ποιητικος & μίμησις Maeland, Idella The Oresteia by Aeschylus is a trilogy of tragedies with a heavy choral focus, not unlike the many plays of ancient Greece. What separates the Oresteia from other tragedies of the time, however, is the unique application of the chorus to the plays Agamemnon , the Libation Bearers , and the Eumenides that make up the trilogy. When studying choral odes and Greek tragedy in general, one must consider the way in which the Greeks interpreted tragedy and literature: the idea of mimesis, as Aristotle describes in his ancient writings, and the Greek concept of poetics . I argue that, in terms of Classical history, poetry was not considered to be a specific genre of literature but, rather, an embodiment of all forms of art that reflected mimesis , i.e., representation through the use of artistic means. The idea of tragedy being a form of poetry is brought forth by Aristotle in Poetics and is supported by the scripts of tragic plays such as the Oresteia , particularly in the poetry of the chorus. It is understood that the chorus provided a great focus of attention for tragic authors like Aeschylus specifically because many of his plays were titled with the name of the chorus (two thirds of the Oresteia ), which was made up of groups of individuals who added their own interpretations of the Greek world into the plays themselves, being everyday, male, Greek citizens. Members of the chorus' reactions to the situations presented to them depend on their social status within the plot. The chorus' role in the tragedy demonstrates the influence of epic poems such as the works of Homer on Greek theatre and can be traced back to the roots of art forms like films and modern theatre productions that we enjoy today. 2 Considering the influence that the Homeric tradition of poetry had on the Greeks, it can also be understood how the chorus fulfilled the role of supporting the importance of ceremony and cultural practices. The play the Libation Bearers in particular highlights the importance of lamenting (and avenging) deceased relatives as the chorus themselves play an active role in the plot by encouraging a brother and sister to summon the spirit of their murdered father during a choral ode. The poetic devices used in the songs of the chorus, such as the metre, are crucial in setting the pace for the audience, creating suspense. The chorus also visualizes these emotions as they not only chant in poetic rhythm, but also dance while dressed in costume. All of these elements that make up the chorus of the Oresteia combine to create an impactful performance that showcases Aristotle's concept of artistic representation and an intense visual portrayal of poetry--a concept that embodies all of literature. 2019-01-01T00:00:00Z Archer Library Award 2020 Poster University of Regina Library http://hdl.handle.net/10294/9068 2020-02-04T18:49:26Z 2020-01-07T00:00:00Z Archer Library Award 2020 Poster University of Regina Library 2020-01-07T00:00:00Z


text: Voting is under way in Turkey in a referendum that will decide whether the country changes its constitution to create a presidential system of government — a move that would give President Recep Tayyip Erdogan sweeping new powers and allow him to stay in office for up to 10 more years. The future of already strained relations between the European Union and Turkey are also at stake, with analysts predicting that a victory for Erdogan could lead to an outright break in relations between Ankara and Brussels. The 18 constitutional amendments being voted upon in a simple "yes" or "no" vote would also weaken Turkey's parliament, eliminate the post of prime minister, and give the president more control over the judiciary…….Read More

Keeping your company's name in the forefront of your client's mind is a continious struggle that business owners have to battle. Although we specialize in business cards and gift cards, we have a variety of marketing materials that can help you stand out from your competition.
The most important aspect of planning out your company's presence is consistency. You want your branding to be the same whether you are looking at an email, your website, signage or even your membership cards.
Here are some of our top marketing materials for your business
Price Tags
From delis to clothing stores, price tags are a big part of their business.
Clear Gift Certificates
A gift certificate is a great way to bring in new business. Whether you give them away to potential clients at an expo or sell them at your location, they are a great way to increase revenue and get more traffic in your location.
Plastic Coasters
Nobody likes rings on their tables, plastic coasters are a great way to prevent that. Not only will they protect your customer's table, but they will also have your branding in front of them to keep you fresh in their mind.
Custom Luggage Tags
A great way to keep your business memorable is to have multiple uses for your marketing materials. Custom luggage tags give your marketing pieces an added purpose that will ensure they are used and don't get thrown in the trash.
Similar to luggage tags, our custom bookmarks give your marketing the extra kick with a unique second purpose.
Promo Cards
A great way to bring new clients in to your business is with promo cards similar to the "have one on me" cards for Morrissey's Irish Pub. Carry a small stack with you and when you meet someone that you feel is a good match for your business you can give them one of your promotional cards.
Door Hangers
Whether you are using door hangers in a door to door promotion or handing them directly to clients, these are an excellent promotional piece. For instance, many of our realtor clients use them to welcome their new clients to their new home or our wedding clients give them to guests as Do Not Disturb door hangers.
Fundraising Discount Cards
Our fundraising cards are great for silent auctions as well as traditional fundraisers for organizations. You can choose from a custom shape that is eyecatching for the auction or our standard credit card size with supporting businesses and their discounts listed.
Gift Cards
Gift cards are often thought of as only a source of payment, however if given the opportunity they can be a fantastic marketing piece as well. Many businesses use them to help increase sales with "Buy X, Get Y" promotions as well as keeping them in a highly visible area which often sparks the clients mind to buy them for friends and family.
Custom Hotel Key Cards
Many conventions opt for custom hotel key cards for a unique marketing piece, that they can include event information on, that their attendees will already be carrying with them.
Indoor Signage
Items such as indoor signage are especially important in your marketing materials. They are something that every single person that comes into your business will see. Rich Coast Coffee Roasters and Extrava Coffee Roasters utilize plastic cards to label the different blends that they offer. A large beneifit that they receive is the durablity of the plastic and they won't have to dispose of a label every time coffee is spilled on it.
Key Tags
Whether you are using key tags as a tracking device or just a promotional product, these plastic marketing materials are sure to keep your company within arm's reach.
Membership Cards
A great way to thank your most frequent or your best clients is by offering a membership program. These programs can be set up to treat your customers after a certain number of visits, a certain dollar amount, or even with different point systems.
Parking PermitsIf you have limited parking spaces available, a great way to give your clients that little extra warm fuzzy is to give them a reserved parking space.
Membership Rewards
Our clear plastic cards give a great alternative to traditional Spot UV printing by printing on the reverse side of a clear plastic card. When you move the card around, the light will catch the gloss finish of the plastic making it shine. Another great option to achieve this look is to utilize our foil stamping option.
Photo Booth Props
Interactive business cards have been and continue to be a very popular choice for our clients. When you hand someone a unique photo booth prop-style card, chances are they are going to immediately start playing with it. To get the most out of these cards, include a hashtag on the card and encourage clients to share photos with these cards socially.
Frosted Business Cards
Similar to clear business cards, our frosted business cards are very eye-catching because they give a transparent card look, while minimizing the area behind the card. They also feature a silky-smooth and luxurious texture, which brings your business cards to the next level.
Matte Finish
Our premium press offers a matte-textured finish that screams prestige. Once you hand your card to someone, they are going to hold on to it a bit longer just to feel that texture.
Wood Business Cards
No need to get splinters when you hand out your marketing materials with wood-finished cards printed on plastic. When printing wood finish, we are also able to control the grain and design of the wood through a variety of imagery choices.
Let our team of expert consultants help you design a custom business card that will last the test of time.

Emma Watson 'was shocked to discover she was a millionaire'By ANI
Monday, November 1, 2010
LONDON - Emma Watson, who plays Hermione in the Harry Potter, says she was shocked to learn that she has become a multi-millionairess after the films.
The actress had been living on an allowance of just 50 pounds a week until she was 17 or 18 when her father sat her down for the "money conversation".
"By the third or fourth film, the money was starting to get serious," the Telegraph quoted her as saying.
"I had no idea. I felt sick, very emotional," she said.
The actress aged 20, who was cast in Harry Potter at the age of nine, confessed to being "straight and boring" in an interview with the December issue of Vogue magazine.
She has barely touched her estimated 20 pound million fortune, for which she was named Hollywood's highest paid female in Vanity Fair earlier this year.
She chose instead to live in student digs while studying at Brown University in Rhode Island.
It is such stoic self-control that led her to ban herself from reading the tabloids.
"There's tons that's not very nice and I'm very, very self critical, so it was like a drug for me," she said. (ANI)

France, Russia and Germany issued separate statements on Thursday calling for an ebbing of tensions between arch-foes Israel and Iran, after the IDF launched an extensive campaign of strikes on Iranian-operated targets in Syria in retaliation to a barrage of rockets fired towards it by Iran.
France's President Emmanuel Macron called for "de-escalation" and said that he planned to discuss the issue with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in a meeting in Germany's western city of Aachen later on Thursday. Only minutes later, a Russian deputy foreign minister delivered a statement for "restraint on all sides" and said Moscow was "concerned" at the escalation.

JOSHUA GARCIA, JULIA BARRETTO Reunite For Kilig Performance On 'ASAP'
Camille Santos
Posted at
Yesterday, ASAP Natin 'To aired its pre-recorded episode in the San Francisco Bay Area and debuted Julia Barretto and Joshua Garcia's first performance together since confirming their breakup.
The former couple sang "O Pag-ibig" by Bailey May and our very own MYX VJ Ylona Garcia. Check out the super duper kilig performance below.
As you may recall, Julia faced malicious rumors linking her with Between Maybes co-star Gerald Anderson. In an earlier interview with ABS-CBN News, the young actress firmly negated such allegations.
Moreover, she had reiterated on her Instagram page on August 6 that she and Joshua had "broken up four months ago" and that there was no third party involved. "From now on, anything I do in my private and love life is not considered as cheating, and is none of anyone's business," her post read.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WKRC) – Ohio lawmakers are weighing in on how public schools can teach things like evolution.
The Ohio House on Wednesday passed the "Student Religious Liberties Act." Under the law, students can't be penalized if their work is scientifically wrong as long as the reasoning is because of their religious beliefs.
Instead, students are graded on substance and relevance.
Every Republican in the House supported the bill. It now moves to the Republican-controlled Senate.

Two Economists: Hoppe and Summers
This is a tale of two economists, Larry Summers and Hans-Hermann Hoppe. They have much in common, in addition to their adherence to the dismal science. Each is quite prominent in his field. Summers was Treasury Secretary in the Clinton Administration, and is now President of Harvard. Hoppe is a professor of economics at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas and a preeminent leader not only of the Austrian School of Economics, but also of the libertarian school of political philosophy. Both are associated with the right wing of the economics profession; although this is far more true of Hoppe than Summers, neither can properly be considered as a socialist or "progressive." I have heard tell that in any given room that Summers finds himself, he is much the brightest person in the group. From my own experience, this also applies, in spades, to Hoppe. They are even not too far apart in age, Hoppe at 55 and Summers at 50.
But the most important thing they have in common is that each has been in the news of late for uttering views incompatible with the Thought Control mania that has swept academia like a virus.

Calling All Audiophiles: Loudspeaker Analysis Video
When given the choice, we'd all prefer our loudspeakers to project perfect sound; having a phone conversation with someone who sounds like a robot caught in a windstorm is less than ideal. The quality of the sound is, naturally, dependent on how well the speaker is designed, and COMSOL Multiphysics is the perfect tool to simulate and optimize loudspeaker designs because of its easy-to-use multiphysics nature.

Computing the Inductance of a Straight Wire
A question that comes up occasionally is whether or not you can compute the inductance of a single straight wire. This seemingly simple question actually does not really have an answer, and gives us the opportunity to talk about a very interesting point when solving Maxwell's equations. Anybody working in the field of computational electromagnetics should have an understanding of this key concept, as it will help you properly set up and interpret models involving magnetic fields.

In the world of bearings, there are many different types to choose from. For certain applications, magnetic bearings trump their mechanical counterparts in several regards. In order to understand how the bearing will perform, using a simulation tool to calculate design parameters is a good idea.
The Graphene Revolution: Part 2
In a previous blog entry I discussed some of the exotic properties of graphene. The fact that graphene consists of a single layer of atoms means the aspect ratio of any graphene-based structure may be very high. High aspect geometries present their own array of modeling challenges.
Simulating Eddy Current Brakes
Last week you saw how you can simulate the heating of a car's brake discs. This reminded me of another type of brake — the eddy current brake (also known as magnetic brake). Whereas the other model was a study in heat transfer, eddy current brakes deal with electromagnetics.
Electrical: The Bumblebee Electrifies Anyway
"The Bumblebee Flies Anyway" was a book by Robert Cormier that I read as a young teenager. In it, Cormier describes how bumblebees are natural anomalies as they seemingly do not have the aerodynamic capability to actually fly. Their wing span and flapping speed should not provide enough lift to allow flying, and this is a fact that I have always associated with bumblebees since. Yet, this has been proven not to be true, as a closer investigation of the […]
Upgrading the Nuts and Bolts of the Electrical Grid
The electrical grid describes the network created for producing electricity, transmitting it and delivering it to the consumers. A "smart grid" is an electrical grid that gathers information on the suppliers and consumers automatically to improve efficiency and sustainability in the system. As the automated technology improves, the hardware that physically connects the electrical grid together must improve as well. This hardware, the "nuts and bolts" of the grid, is comprised of transformers, cable joints, terminations, bushings, and fault current […]
Inductive Heating of a Billet Simulation Tutorial
Induction occurs when a metal object moves in the presence of a magnetic field inducing a current in that object. The induced current causes it to heat up (called inductive heating), as all current does. Yet, simulating these two coupled physics together can be difficult to do as they are intrinsically based on different time scales. COMSOL Multiphysics is able to cleverly simulate them through combining the frequency domain modeling of the magnetic field with a stationary simulation of the […]

Noble has plenty of familiarity with Verdi's source material, of course, having been artistic director of Great Britain's Royal Shakespeare Company from 1990 to 2003. He's no stranger to opera, either: he has staged four of them previously, one of those being the renowned 2000 Aix-en-Provence Festival production of Monteverdi's Return of Ulysses with William Christie and Les Arts Florissants. ("It was one of those productions that wouldn't go away, he told Playbill. Virtually there was a world tour ...")
"For me, it is like the Verdi opera is a kind of a bridge between Shakespeare's play and our era," says Noble, who has set this production (of which we offer photos below) in the years after World War II. "And the play's action emerges out of a civil war. They're not fighting a foreign power ... it tells the story of a leader in a civil war, a star general who was a brilliant soldier and hugely popular who becomes the leader of his country, and that leader becomes the oppressor of his people. And there's all that collateral damage of thousands of refugees pouring over the English border ... And leaders like that are just as prevalent today, like Ceausescu."
Baritone Zeljko Lucic sings the role of the murderous Thane, with soprano Guleghina as his bloodstained Lady, tenor Dimitri Pittas as Macduff and bass John Relyea as Banquo at the first four performances, through November 3. For three dates of a four-date run in January, baritone Lado Ataneli (Macbeth) and tenor Roberto Aronica (Macduff) join Guleghina and Relyea; for the fourth date, January 15, Pittas returns as Macduff and Andrea Gruber takes over Lady Macbeth. Gruber returns for the final three performances of Macbeth this season, May 9-17, with baritone Carlos Álvarez as Macbeth, tenor Joseph Calleja as Macduff and bass Ren_ Pape as Banquo. Metropolitan Opera music director James Levine conducts all performances.
"This is a modern production," said Guleghina to the Times, "but done with respect, intelligence, study, preparation, heart, love, soul. Not like in Germany."

Today's gift is kaboom.
I have no idea what this word means or where it came from, but my daughter thinks it is the funniest word. I know there is a cleaning solution whose name is Kaboom and the foam is purple....but that is not what I'm talking about.
Everyone who knows my daughter, knows this word will get an automatic response from her. It is one of the words she says and you have to act silly while saying the word back to her. For a while kabooms were taking over and we had to not respond when a kaboom was mentioned. Since taking the break from kaboom, we can use it again in our rotation of words to make her laugh.
Tonight when I was putting her to bed (which by the way is one of my favorite times with her), I hopped into her bed and covered us up with her covers so all you saw were our heads sticking out and got really close to her face. We stared into each others eyes and then she made the move to kiss me. I closed my eyes as I wanted to see if she would say something to get me to open them. Immediately she started saying the two words we say to her to get her to laugh...boo and kaboom.
Every time she would say kaboom I would open my eyes fast and she would start laughing the deep belly laugh. There was something about her laugh tonight, which made me realize this word kaboom was my gift today.
Maybe it was simply, this word makes her laugh. Hearing her laugh means she is happy. And I love nothing more than seeing her happy.
Here is a quote for today...
You can't deny laughter, when it comes it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants- Stephen King

SHUFFLE is, above all, an amazing artistic adventure, putting musical genre exploration at the forefront of their compositions to capture moments and inspiration and transform them into a visceral experience. The band owes this exploration spirit to their diverse musical roots, from rock to electro or hip-hop. Since their incredibly seductive and powerful first album, « Upon The Hill » released in 2015, they inject atmospheric vibes amidst waves of awesome riffs to take the listener deep into the heart of bright celestial layers.
After some 200 concerts in France and abroad, SHUFFLE are a force that keep growing with each listening and performing experience and remains an insatiable inspiration. Their thrilling performance will continue to reach new peaks and new horizons, wherever destiny leads them… like playing support for Tricky, Dirty Loops, Lonely The Brave, The Intersphere and Shvpes for instance. With a sense of ownership, they weave sounds seamlessly and perform mythical harmonies on the cusp between fire and ice.
Awaiting a second album « #WontTheyFade? » to be released by Autumn 2018, SHUFFLE remains a heroic musical starship sailing through solar heat and melodic meteor showers and taking with them faraway galaxies and black holes where anything could happen. An extraterrestrial quest from which the listener cannot escape, gliding on astral creations of a sublime interstellar evocative power.

The most frugal director in the world? Meet Miguel Arteta
Perhaps we can all learn about fiscal restraint from him. The way he manages his art and his money makes me pine for my stamp-sized apartment in Hell's Kitchen.
Let me explain. Arteta, 44, has directed the likes of Jennifer Aniston in "The Good Girl" and now Michael Cera in "Youth in Revolt," opening Friday.
His movies have been successful in indie circles and he's already shot another one, "Cedar Rapids," due out next year. Surely he must be embracing the Hollywood life in digs befitting a respected filmmaker. Right?
"I live in a room this size," he told WalletPop recently as we surveyed his Toronto hotel suite. Some film types have walk-in closets bigger than this.
Surely you jest, Director Sir.
"No," he answered. "This is it."
Arteta said he was operating on a modest budget long before the economy dropped faster than a stuntman in a Western. Good thing, too, because he didn't direct a movie for six years before "Youth in Revolt."
His home in Los Angeles is a 300-square-foot guest house above a two-car garage. That could be the kind of setup you have if you're a wannabe screenwriter who recently dropped out of film school and got cut off from Daddy's trust fund. Not for an established talent whose last movie, the said "Good Girl," grossed $14 million after he made it for $5 million.
We were afraid to ask if he pays for basic cable.
"I kept overhead low so I didn't have to make a movie I didn't want to make," he explained. "Listen, I have a nice life. I eat out all the time. But I just keep overhead low so I can have a nice life."
Living within means or even below to maintain security and integrity in a high-risk medium should be a no-brainer strategy. Hollywood hubris makes it almost seem quaint.
Arteta said he wanted to sell out for the money. The right script didn't come his way until "Revolt," in which the baby-faced Cera ("Superbad") morphs into Jean-Paul Belmondo's "Breathless" bad boy to win the girl and lose his virginity.
"It's the perfect match of material and star," Arteta said. The film's prospects appear bright. Cera is popular. "Revolt" has mainstream backing in the Weinstein Company. Some early reviews have been positive. Perhaps a habitat upgrade is in Arteta's future?
"It'd be nice to have commercial success," he said.

In a moment of uncertainty, the officials during the AFC Championship game called a pass interference penalty on Patriots Corner back, Ellis Hobbs. It gave the Colts the ball on the 1 yard line in which the got the touchdown. However, it is unclear whether the Colts would have scored any way, but that is not the point. The point is that the Patriots were not given the chance to stop the Colts offense and prevent them from scoring. If they stopped the touchdown, the Colts would have gone for the field goal. Now, if they got the field goal, the score would have been tied 34-34 and Tom Brady would have either played it differently and won the game or the game would have gone into overtime.
The following is from the news release on the situation:
In a recent posting by Vic Ketchman, Jaguars.com senior editor, Ketchman responded to a fan�??s posting about the play, writing, �??You are absolutely correct. Face-guarding was discontinued several years ago and I completely missed it.�?�
Apparently, Ketchman had already responded to questions about the play, attributing the call to face-guarding just like Simms and countless fans across the nation who tuned in to watch the most viewed AFC Championship game in over 20 years.
There is no NFL rule against face-guarding.
�??I talked to Dean Blandino in the league office and he confirmed what you�??re saying,�?� wrote Ketchman. �??Ellis Hobbs should not have been flagged for pass-interference. He didn�??t make contact with the receiver and in no way did Hobbs impede Reggie Wayne�??s ability to catch the pass. Blandino confirmed that the incorrect call was made. �?� Referee Bill Carollo made no reference to face-guarding in his explanation, but CBS analyst Phil Simms did. Apparently, he, too, doesn�??t know the rule no longer exists. The next time you hear a TV analyst say, �??he wasn�??t playing the ball,�?? think of the Hobbs play, then turn down the sound.�?�
The Patriots may have been screwed out of a super bowl spot, but there is always next year. It will be hard waiting till August/September to see the Patriots play again.

Spending Time in The Pit
How do you know you are in the Pit?
You feel stuck
You can't get yourself out
You can't stand up against your enemy
David's Pit was "slimy, muddy and mirry" (Psalm 40:2)
Jeremiah "sank down" in his (Jeremiah 38:6)
A pit is what Satan digs for you in hopes he can bury you alive.
You know you are in a pit when:
You have lost your vision. Why is this? Because the pit has no windows. Think about it. When I read that in my devotional I drew a pit and wrote "Where are the windows?"
In darkness we can't see things that were once obvious to us. We can't see the things that might be right in front of our faces.
When we are enclosed in this pit the close confinement can exhaust us with "an endless echo of self-absorption." Since we can't see out, we look inside. "Nearsightedness breeds Hopelessness"
You need to know something. Are you listening? This is important so listen up. But most of all BELIEVE. Believe what I am about to tell you because if you don't believe, then this is going to be on deaf ears and eyes. Please, open your heart and believe that...
You don't have to stay in your Pit.
You're pit has become too comfortable or familiar.
Learn what it is you like about your pit.
Accept that you deserve better.
Give yourself something better.
For me, reading about the Pit and I have really opened my eyes. I cant believe that I have grown this accustomed to it. I can't believe that I felt safe in my pit. That I accept it just because it is what I know now.
The painful CAN get comfortable. It can get familiar. It can be acceptable.
Well, accept that pit no more. You were not meant to live in a pit.
Start looking around you. Make a window in your pit if you have to so you can see out. Make a new home that is far away from that pit as possible. One you are standing outside the pit and looking down in it I think you will say as I am starting to say "Wow, I can't believe I was in there for so long. Wow I can't believe I thought that disgusting thing was OK. "
Currently I am like you. I am just now realizing I have been in the Pit. But now I am standing on the edge of the Pit. I am looking down into that muddiness and dirt and filth and am amazed at myself.I am better than that. You are better than that.
I refuse to spend time in the Pit anymore.
Let's seek out this world and see what it has to offer...It's ok. I know you are scared. I am too. But I am here friend. God is here. There is a hand outstretched to you. It is up to you to take it.

Technology is creating ease in human lives and doing business as well. Technology is providing great systems which work on the basis of automation in different fields of business. Which increase the efficiency of work and help to improve the profit side of the business as well. The reason why businesses find more profit which relies more on technology is the way they complete their operations. The operations which firms are performed on the basis of technology has zero error system. Which will increase their quality and customer satisfaction at the same time?
Technology is playing a great role in the field of pig farms the equipment which is used in poultry farms from the start the same equipment is used these days as well. But the difference is that pig equipment is converted into a refined form of technology and used in a better way than traditional.
There are a lot of companies which deal in different pig equipment's which will provide help to pig farms to do their daily operations easily. These companies always work on the advancement of poultry technology to provide their customer with most up to date technology. So they can perform their work easily and quickly.
We will discuss some new technologies which are coming in the market of poultry farms and change its working style.
Poultry farm and technology:
Advance Climate controller:
When you are doing poultry farming or any other kind of farming you know that different kind of animals required a different kind of climate. But it is not possible to maintain that climate due to some natural reasons which will happen at any time. But technology has something for that as well. The companies which deal in pig equipment's innovate a system which can control the climate change automatically and adjust the farm climate according to changing one so no animal get harmed because of it.
Sensor technology is changing the world working style. There is a number of sensors used in the farming business these days. The role of these sensors is to measure the special requirement of the farm and make the owner alert if something went wrong. Most sensors have the ability to change the environment to bring things on a normal level like before.
The CO2 sensor is used in farming which will measure the quantity of co2 in air and try to maintain balance in it. As something went wrong these sensors make the management aware of it and start working on normalizing the rising level of CO2 on the farm.
Farm Management System:
These companies are providing pig farm management software which will provide help to management to deal with day to day operations. It will help them to do these day to day activities effectively. Like this system help the farmer to have a track of their food inventory which they used daily to feed their animals. This system will help them to ask for new inventory before the existing one is consumed so no hurdle is placed in getting food supply to animals. This software has many other benefits like that as well which will help in performing other daily operation of poultry farms.
