This conversation has been merged. Please reference the main conversation:
i added my imap email account in the Emails module and the importing process ended with all emails inside my email module.
i also defined a new email group (that imports incoming emails to the system) and relate the email to the Leads/contacts/accounts history panel.
after one month of using sugarcrm i notied that the space that sugar takes, incresed by one GIGA! and i noticed it is because of NEW 899 notes that where created automatically by the automatic import, during the month.
it must be because of the group email that import the emails with the attachments right?
this is a huge problem for me,
how can i disable the automatic creation of notes from attachments, signature images and others from the incoming emails, while continue to imprt the emails text into the lead/contact/account History panel (without the attachment)?
using sugarcrm community 6.5.13.

Anyway, I'll get to the point. We were invited by the Bristol Old Vic to see The Three Musketeers last night a family comedy for all ages, to their press night. A perfect opportunity to inject a bit of culture into our lives and a great summer holiday outing! We drove an hour from home and managed to find road parking a street away for only £3.60. Bristol was buzzing, hundreds of people spilling onto the pavements enjoying a drink on a summer evening, I'd forgotten quite how lively big cities were and the boys stared wide eyed taking it all in.
We arrived at the theatre and it really is the most magnificent building having been recently renovated and restored, the foyer was heaving with people enjoying a drink pre-show and there was a real mix of young trendy Bristolians, theatre darlings and regular families too with young children.
Our seats were in the pit (or stalls) and we sat wondering at the set, a deconstructed treehouse, with stairs and platforms if you will. My youngest, aged seven, asked quite seriously if there would be real swords and if anyone would be killed - there were swords on the posters so I guess this is a quite reasonable presumption. As I sat waiting with the boys, my mind was racing "oh my goodness how is a seven year old going to sit through this!" and "the 13 year old is used to Giffords Circus, his standards are ridiculously high!"
The production began with the four members of the theatre company Le Navet Bete (which means four daft turnips) introducing themselves on stage and setting the scene. This was a great thing to do, they shared their ambitions for the production - four actors playing a lot of characters (I lost count - 40 maybe?), their friendship and this brought us into their world and part of the production. They were telling a tale of The Three Musketeers that most of us knew or had watched in our childhoods on TV on a rainy Saturday afternoon. The production was physical and fast, no pauses, and scene rolled easily into scene, their costume changes alone totalled 112 (this was in the programme I wasn't counting!)
There were slapstick moments, up to date language woven in, 'WTF', and an occasional fluffed line - which had the audience in stitches and I think added to the experience as the boys turned to me in absolute delight. There was audience participation, as soft toy ducks were thrown to the audience for a shooting scene and everyone had to throw them onto the stage when 'duck' was shouted! There was something for all ages - some saucy moments and such a pure 'in the moment' humour that the cast expertly played to their advantage - especially when D'Artagnan jumped onto a platform and rolls precariously towards the edge of the stage - his face was a picture and had the audience in stitches for a good few minutes, although maybe not the people in the front row on whose laps he would of landed!
There were stand out performers from each of the four main actors; Dan Bianchi, Nick Bunt, Al Dunn and Matt Freeman and they obviously knew each others traits so well that the characters they played were brilliant. Milady de Winter was a cross between Michelle from Allo, Allo, Cruella de'vil and Millicent Clyde in Paddington, an audience favourite as the villain of the piece. The design and costumes also played a huge part with capes fashioned from 1970's flowery curtains and the horses were 70's chopper bikes - I loved when they all rode them along to 'crazy horses' music blaring out!
We all thought the production was brilliant and both boys really enjoyed it and commented on how good the performers were - how rare and special is that moment of walking out of a theatre smiling having shared such an amazing experience and all in agreement? It has certainly given me the confidence to seek out other shows.
The only downside for the whole experience is the main bar, you have to queue for ages, there wasn't enough staff to serve everyone very quickly pre-show and in the interval and I hated the 'jostling' to be served - see I told you we didn't go out much! The staff they had were great but I guess it's difficult to staff for such a short and intense amount of time, my tip would be to seek our the kiosks on the other floors for children's drinks and ice cream and just use the main bar if you want an alcoholic drink.
We would give the production, location and whole experience 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟and will certainly seek out Le Navet Bete productions in the future.
Disclosure: We were invited to review The Three Musketeers at Bristol Old Vic in return for this review. The review is based entirely on our own experience and opinion. Photography supplied.

NI building work shows drop over last three months
The volume of construction work in NI has fallen over the last three months according to new figures.
The NI Statistics and Research Agency said the drop was mostly due to a decline in new work, which fell by 5% between April and June compared to the previous quarter.
Year on year building work fell by 14.5% in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same quarter in 2009.
Repair and maintenance work fell by 0.5% compared to the previous quarter.
The figures are based on returns from construction firms from 1 April to 30 June 2010.

By Raphael Awen
The 5 of us lived comfortably this month on $740 USD per person!
This is a product of an ongoing deep reboot with our relationship to money and career.
I know how crazy $700 a person sounds for a comfortable enough living arrangement to Western ears, as we used to live in Canada on much more.
We are very much looking to increase our income to enter some new timelines, and even return soon to Canada, and that will take some new money flow for sure, but I can't tell you how great it has been to pull the plug on an old relationship to money. Some years ago, Jelelle and I (2 of us as opposed to 5) used to live on 10 times that amount while longing to put our deeper sense of calling first in our lives.
We very much can feel this new money timeline arising, and we wanted to document it and share it as we go, on a monthly basis with these Patreon posts as a way of transparentizing our own ongoing shifts in our relationship to money out to those we serve to help foster people's own similar shifts.
Here's a look at our money flow for this month: November, 2017.
(all figures in US Dollars)
$3,701 – Total Revenue for November (which was just over the recent 7 month average of 3,543).
Revenue breakdown as follows:
$2,271 – Gabriel and Kalayna's English Teaching through VIPkid.
$202 – This month there was a bit of money from some online work gigs through UPwork that Kalayna and Raianna did with a little help from Gabriel and I.
$1,032 – Sessions Donations are back on the way up as a new wave of people are responding. We ask for a minimum donation of 55 USD per weekly session.
$140 – Group Call Donations for our one Group Call this month. Minimum donation is 11 usd to participate.
$42 – General Donations through Patreon and Paypal. We received one new monthly supporter this month for $25 usd.
$14 – Book Sales of Jelelle's Books
On the Expenses side of things, we have:
$685 – Total Rent for 3 living spaces
$30 – 2 Zoom accounts for Sessions and Group Calls
$91 – Bank Service Fees and Payment transfer fees
$8 – Netflix
$75 – Internet – Total for 5 modems (where else can you get internet for $15.00?)
$97 – Monthly payments on 2 new laptops
$10 – Website Hosting
$996 – Total fixed expenses!
The rest ($541 per person) goes to food, clothes, a tiny bit on fuel, a bit at Starbucks and our wish list for home and recreation, etc..
We would be so delighted to receive your monthly support on Patreon at: https://www.patreon.com/soulfullheart
or you can make a one time donation (as often as you'd like) through our Paypal here: https://www.paypal.me/supportsoulfullheart

Benefits of Your Home Being Bought by an Investor
At times, you may be wondering how possible it is for your house to be purchased quickly without giving you a financial burden. You should consider selling to a real estate investor because they offer the advantages expounded below.
The first benefit is that you sell faster. Real estate investors have in mind what they are after hence can bid on the spot. In many instances, they take very little time checking your house. Investors already have in mind sources of financing the purchase of your house hence will not be delayed due to inability to secure loans. In most cases, they acquire in cash therefore close in a short time.
The second advantage is that real estate investors support convenience. Real estate investors see purchasing your home like they are providing services and will thus fit within your schedule. Therefore, you do not use much time on the phone, prepared to leave your premises when a real estate agent notifies you. Unlike realtors, investors have flexible schedules. They regard buying your home as their job hence able to work with your timetable.
The third pro is that they buy your house as is. You can incur huge costs trying to sell your house because for it to stand against other houses, it has to be repaired. Even when it is repaired, you are not sure about it being bought fast. However, investors address imperfections and are not very keen in knowing the number of damages your house sustains. You thus save time and money that would have otherwise been spent on maintenance and repairs and hiring an inspector. In addition, investors buy houses with legal issues, credit issues, and liens.
There is no commission. Selling your home to a real estate investor saves you from paying commission/fees which an agent needs to be paid. As it is known, a real estate agent demands a large amount of money. Selling your house to an investor is the right option since it saves money.
Finally, you avoid foreclosure. The best means through which you can evade foreclosures multiple times is by selling to an investor since this process is fast. It is not easy to avoid foreclosure when your house is being sold to a real estate agent due to the fact that the process is very slow.
The next advantage is the surety of close. Real estate investors are not buying a house to live in and cannot easily back out because they have found a better house. Chances are, investors need many houses and will not fail to buy your house because of feeling it is too messy.

The Heroic Map Pack, which contains the maps Standoff, Rat's Nest, and Foundry and was released back in December for 800 Microsoft Points, will be free this Tuesday. This is good news for all of you who have been patient (or cheap) and have not downloaded the maps yet. Because the maps will be free, the April playlist update will require the Heroic Maps for Ranked Big Team, Social Big Team, Team Slayer and Rocket Race.
But that's not all! The third map from the Legendary Map pack will be unveiled next Tuesday on Bungie.net. If you missed the announcements for the other two maps, they are:
Avalanche: A lovingly crafted reimagination of Halo: Combat Evolved classic Sidewinder. It wouldn't be wholly accurate to call it a "remake," but elements of Avalanche are certainly culled from Sidewinder – it has the same familiar U-shape, multiple ways from base-to-base, and a whole sandbox full o' vehicles to play with. But there are many, many changes too.
Ghost Town: The fragmented ruins of a small 24th century water purification complex that geographically lies just North and West of the jungle foothills hydroelectric facility from the Sierra 117 mission. Essentially Ghost Town is an asymmetric map designed for 4v4 encounters, it's meant to be a strong infantry map where you get a nice range of close combat and longer range. The spaces are set up to allow two to three person squads a good bit of operating room and several tactical options.
The Legendary Map pack itself will be released on April 15th for 800 Microsoft Points

Argentinian photographer Valeria Alves da Florencia documents human connection. Her most recent focus is the The Nurture & Care Project, which aims to create a space for visibility, awareness and discussion about the importance of accepting breastfeeding in public spaces, and the necessity of leaving prejudices behind, no matter the age of the baby.
Having studied photography and also worked in several areas of television and audiovisual production companies, she has gained a considerable amount of valuable experience going on to teach for ten years right up to University level. Her interests are primarily devoted to issues of human spiritual nature, healing and origins. "I basically dive into emotional story-telling," she says. For the last eight years, her photographic work is directly related with feminine themes. We spoke to Valeria to find out more about this wonderful project, and share a few of her photographs.
"I started to photograph women bonded to their babies and kids in their own daily spaces, capturing their particular gestures, their ways to move in intimacy, their singular ways of looking at the world," she says. "These spaces have been enriching to listen, to register stories, struggles and needs of many women from diverse backgrounds.
At the moment, I also undertake conceptual projects related to feminine genealogies. Women's female ancestral and emotional universe is a subject which means excitement and commitment for me."
What is your project about? What do you hope to achieve with your project?
After solo traveling for several months across Europe in 2011/2012, I got the chance to listen and learn about different realities of women facing breastfeeding and the fact that they were expected to wean after the sixth month of the baby.
I went back to Argentina thinking that something wasn't working, that something was missing. In these countries, so-called "developed", something as basic and natural as breastfeeding was being rejected, censored and restricted in most cases.
The Nurture & Care Project aims to create a space for visibility, awareness and discussion about the importance of accepting breastfeeding in public spaces, and the necessity of leaving prejudices behind, in spite the age of the baby. This is a global need.
My images don't only show women breastfeeding, but also the public environments in which they usually do so.
Many women do not resign their right to breastfeed their children, although this would involve a social rejection. Many others resign, fighting against various views of criticism, censure, even within the most intimate family members.
We live in a world which mostly stimulates a culture of death and rejects a natural act that nurtures life.
This photographic project aims to open a space to think about the freedom of rising and taking care of children in the present moment, in between all of these paradoxes. Up to date, more than 115 women from 10 different countries have been photographed for this project (Argentina, Spain, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Slovakia, Croatia, United States).

Sometimes we come across a location that seems like it is full of promise and we walk away with next to nothing, this building was one of those. It was very obviously a school of fairly modern construction and it had been beaten to hell in the time that it has been closed, walls were torn down, doors were totally gone, spiders had spun massive webs across the hallways and there was very little of actual interest to be found. On one level this is somewhat hilarious, because a couple of years ago we would have been thrilled to find a location like this. Now that we're a little more experienced we were disappointed. However I did find one thing that justified our time in this building.
In the auditorium the glass wall and windows were destroyed long ago, nature's hand has reached in to pull the tiles loose from the floor and in some places turn individual tiles into little islands of moss. Some of the more ambitious islands are sprouting a few weeds too.
I find moss endlessly fascinating, and I cannot fathom why it has so wholeheartedly taken over only a select few tiles while leaving almost all of the rest pristine. Nature

text: Description: SOLD! 1978 HONDA CIVIC WAGON with only 150K Kms. Super rare, one year only first generation wagon. Local car, One lady owner, serviced by the same mechanic for the last 25 years. We would call this one a survivor - fully functional with some minor cosmetic challenges and no major rust. There is some rust, winch is confined to the rear quarter panels, but very minor as far as older Hondas are concerned, please see pictures. Lots of evidence of proper maintenance. It starts, drives, and brakes as it should. The Hondamatic auto transmission works great. The original AM radio works, so does the heater. Manual steering, but power brakes. Congratulations Chris!

One of the biggest games of 2009 has already made quiet a buzz when it was officially announced a few months ago. BioShock 2 is the rumored prequel in the "BioShock" series and requires a lot of hard work and perseverance like any AAA game under construction in the secret labs of any developers.
Am more concerned as to what will happen if EA succeeds in acquiring T2.
Its coming to the PS3.Unless a company with the Letter M writes a blank check.
like it is coming to the PS3 (for now). It's going to be nice for PS3 users to have a prequel of the game as opposed to a sequel, since they never got to play the original.

"Try small group activities, give them time to even write in class (a focused work day in which you walk around and talk to them individually right before a draft in due works great). Don't try to just have large group discussion—it is not a graduate seminar. When I do large group discussion it is only part of the class—and usually after small group, so I can call on the groups and asked them what they talked about."
"Generating and facilitating discussion in a large group is one of the hardest teaching tasks there is. If students have a hard time discussing a reading or answering your questions, it isn't always because they haven't read the material or they aren't engaged. I always assume they want to have a lively discussion, it's just a matter of getting the group to "gel"—not an easy task in the least. I often ask students to write first, providing a simple and short writing prompt to give them a chance to think about their answers and put them on paper before they're asked to perform for others in the class. I also try putting them in small groups first to discuss the topic, then come back to the large group to share their answers. Finally, if a large group discussion isn't working, I just abandon it for that day and try something else. Sometimes it's a matter of day, mood, timing and simply another day will lead to a better discussion."
"Start with open-ended questions: did you like this? What did you think of it? Did it remind you of anything? Or, as them to freewrite for a few minutes in answer to some general question, and then call on people to read stuff they came up with."
"Have questions prepared. Put them in small groups. My personal favorite: make them freewrite and then turn to discussion. Also, have them write discussion questions anonymously and then read them aloud (assuming they're appropriate)."
"Sit on the desk and call on one person. In my class, we have a rule that 'I don't know' isn't allowed. They have to try. If they look panicked, then I'll say, 'ok, we'll give you a second to collect your thoughts' and then I DO go back to that person to help him save face and try again."
"You can ask them to write and then share.
"You can ask them to bring something to class and be prepared to share that.
"You can ask them directly.
"Just remember: ask real questions. Don't ask "guess what's in my head" questions. In other words, if you want them to fill in the blanks (eg. 'The author says on p. 7 that he believes what?'), you are going to get a lot of blank stares and a couple of eager students willing to fill in the blanks.
"A real discussion comes when you have real things to discuss. It is also a real discussion if it isn't simply question and answer. Learn to listen to what they say and to moderate the conversation as they contribute.
"If it is really a quiet class, put them in smaller groups, but even then, you'll need to give them something very specific to work on and a product you want from it.
"Never simply say, 'Discuss.'"

I read an article (Chicago Tribune) on the Internet last week:
We'll never have to remember another phone number ever.
Most of the really important stuff will be up in the Cloud, and all we'll have to do is type in a command to retrieve it or pull it down. I already google "that thing that somebody said" and other obscure phrases just to see what will prick my memory. Sometimes I have absolutely no idea at all of what it was I was trying to remember, but after googling and refining my search I can usually find what I was looking for. Now if I could just find what's in my purse—but that's another matter.
The article talked about "digital amnesia." In a survey (on-line??) 90 percent said that "they use the Internet as an online extension of their brain."
The point is: we don't need to remember. Because if we do need to access a fact or image all we have to do is google it and it comes back to us in a second. How many times were you in the middle of a conversation and lost your train of thought or the name or face was there at the tip of your tongue and brain—and you paused a minute to check it on Facebook or using your device to confirm what it was you were talking about. Like all the time, right?
This is a good thing because we don't have to waste our brain cells remembering stuff and it's a bad thing because—what the heck are we remembering?
In effect, we are already becoming one with the machine: "We are becoming symbiotic with our computer tools, growing into interconnected systems that remember less by knowing information than by knowing where the information can be found," according to the Science article.
That one thing, you know, uhh . . .is only a click away.
Now—what about all those endless food pictures and selfies we take? And never get around to looking at. Are we taking pictures so that we never have to rely on memory, actually remember a special evening out and that the oysters were to die for . . .

The worst part of dealing with a new (or newly restored) computer is installing all of the software that we need to actually get stuff done. If you have an Internet-connection and some anti-virus software, I recommend heading over to Ninite: a website that will create an all-in-one unattended installer to get all of that software you need.
Just check the boxes of the software you want, click get installer, then run the downloaded file. Ninite takes care of the rest. No clicking "Next" or anything like that.
I recommend:
Web Browsers
- Google Chrome
- Skype
- either Pidgin (if you use multiple chat services) or the single IM service you use
- iTunes
- K-Lite Codecs
- Flash
- Java
- Foxit Reader [beats the pants off of Adobe Reader]
- Essentials [if you haven't already downloaded it, which should have been your first step…]
File Sharing
- uTorrent
- Dropbox [a must if you have more that one computer]
- Steam [if you're a gamer, anyway]
Click "Get Installer," which will download a single program that you can, when connected to the Internet, run and walk away from. All your selected software will be installed and when its finished, you're new computer will be good to go.

To fully appreciate what it looks like now, here's what it looked like the day we moved in.
For a little while we had the green door (SW Fresh Balsam) and while I loved it, from the outside it was too dark for the shaded house.
The tile isn't what I want but I'm not interested in gutting it yet. It sounds too tiring, dusty and expensive so I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to try painting it.
First I scrubbed the floor really well. There's a super helpful tip at the bottom that I would use here. Make sure and keep reading. I primed it with this Kilz Adhesion Primer.
We used a product like it on the oil based paneling in our old house but I forgot about it until an Instagram friend, Laura @makingourhaven used it to completely overhaul her bathroom. I'm talking floors. In a bathroom. That gets wet.... She showed a video where she was scraping it with her fingernails and nothing was happening. SCORE!
I painted 2 coats of primer and gave it a while to dry. By 'a while' I mean a couple weeks. That's little bit overkill (it needs 2 hours) but we had a lot of rain and I just didn't have the energy to do it while my family needed to come in and out with wet boots on.
After that I gave it two coats of the base color. I used the same sample paint from the stencil in our mudroom. The color was closest to the concrete floors everywhere else in the livingroom. Sherwin Williams 'mega greige.'
Then I used this brush and the pinwheel stencil from Royal Design Studio Stencils. I chose the 6" one because that's the size of the tiles I was covering.
I skipped tiles so that the one before has a little time to dry before I overlapped it.
It was a lot of up and down. I rinsed and cleaned the stencil every 10 or 20 squares just so that dried paint wouldn't come off onto the floor.
I took a time lapse of the painting process. It probably took 2 hours from the start of using the stencil to painting on the clear top coat. That's $30 in supplies (I already had the paint colors, top coat and stencil brush) and a few hours... so worth it for pretty floors while we fix up more pressing spots in our home.
SUPER HELPFUL TIP: Once the "tiles" were dry I did some touch up work with a tiny brush then attached a microfiber cloth to our swiffer to clean off anything that may have found it's way onto the floors. I didn't think about this specific problem solving idea until this step. It would have been helpful after cleaning the floors before the primer and on every step after.
I used this product from my parent's stenciled floors and the mudroom to protect the paint.
That's it!
Most of it is protected by the rug which makes me feel better about it being long lasting.
Plus it's a pretty busy pattern with lots of contrast so I like that it's covered up a bit.
That's it! I'm so happy I did it. The floors flow better now. Also, I may be a little more motivated to rip up more carpet now...

Anybody keep in mind the days of going to Blockbuster to hire a video?

The flexibility to pay rent on-line (with out a paper verify or trip to the rental drop box) is now seen as an necessary amenity to an condo itemizing… simply verify local condo listings or Craigslist in your area.
Summary: Figuring out sequences of queries for retrieving photos of negotiable instruments such as checks. A request for a test picture is obtained from a primary laptop corresponding to an account holder computer at a second, intermediate computer that hosts an on-line banking program and is in communication with a third pc of a monetary institution. A sequence program is executed to find out a first sequence of queries having respective query codecs out there to attempt to retrieve the requested image papercheck from an image server or information retailer. The first sequence is decided primarily based on historic data of whether respective query codecs were successfully used previously to retrieve respective requested photographs from the info store and is dynamically updated to replicate whether queries have been used to retrieve requested photos. Thus, with embodiments, the order of queries to utilize is dynamic and can change versus being pre-determined or static.
Criteria Of papercheck reviewingwriting – The Inside Track
Although JM Bullion prides itself on protecting the privacy of our customers and their investment actions, we're required by regulation to report any cash funds" that exceed $10,000. Included beneath the class of money payments" are cashier's checks and cash orders for LESS than $10,000. This policy also applies to any related papercheck transactions which can be made within 24 hours of each other and whose combined complete is more than $10,000. So an order for $11,000 price of silver, paid for with two cash orders of $5,000 and $6,000 each, would set off a reporting requirement. See our Reportable Bullion Transactions Infographic for full details and examples.
That is in all probability a mistake since from a small business' perspective, competing with the test means competing with zero, or at the very least the notion of zero, from each a cost and an effort standpoint. One of many important traits which papercheck have saved the paper test alive for therefore long is that it is virtually the one cost technique provided as a courtesy, somewhat than a straight payment-for-service mannequin.

How to Choose Boot Camps for Kids
Naomi Sarah
Mar 4, 2020
Here's helping you decide on the best boot camps for kids, that will help him/her grow into a responsible and self achieving adult. Find out what will work for your child, and how to go about it...
A boot camp is synonymous with military school, since both have military based settings, with the same goal in mind. Kids are usually sent off to boot camp to be subjected to a more disciplined setting, of getting things straight in their lives, especially when they're in their teens.
Parents send their kids to these camps in the hope of changing them as individuals, especially when they've been behaving in a manner that disturbs them.
There are many controversies that revolve around boot camps for teenagers, and the way their correctional methods are enforced upon kids. Only a few places don't entail such a strict and vigorous way of doing things.
The importance of sending off a kid to boot camp is to know that he/she is open to change, and the want to get better. Here we get into the matter of how boot camps can be decided upon after looking into certain factors, before acting upon the situation at hand.
Deciding Whether Your Child Needs to Go to a Boot Camp
Depending on the following aspects, first check whether your child has performed the following acts, and accordingly base your decision on sending him/her to boot camp.
Child is argumentative, offensive and aggressive.
Anger issues.
Difficulty accepting 'no' as an answer.
Misses out on classes at school.
Can't take criticism.
Often suspended from school.
Not doing well in studies.
Self motivation and self-esteem are lacking.
Getting into trouble with the law.
Drug abuse, and is a part of a gang.
Is absent from home for long periods of time.
Learning disabilities.
Steals from stores, or from personal items at home, like cash or credit cards.
Doesn't abide by rules at school or otherwise.
Suicidal tendencies.
Suffers from either Attention Deficit Disorder, or Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder.
Friends are a bad influence.
Alcohol consumption.
Eating disorders
Sexually active, without the use of protection.
Suffers from depression or bipolar disorder.
Understanding Boot Camps
Boot camps have a particular way of doing something, like the idea of
'shock incarceration'
, where kids are put into more reasonably cost-effective programs which have a more intense environment, that are military oriented. Putting a difficult child in boot camp has its share of pros and cons.
The plus side of things showcase that kids 'may' change into better individuals and have good futures planned out for themselves, but the downside is that not all boot camps can successfully release a child, without maybe having intensified his/her issues, or turning him/her into a more aggravated person.
Boot camps, because of their severe methods, fail to give these kids a chance to really find themselves. That is why you need to look out for places that have a more gentle approach, and not one that is so harsh.
Military Boot Camps
These military boot camps for kids, aim at making them more focused, and disciplined, with boot camp training workouts and other programs targeted at letting him/her be more responsible and humane.
Due to boot camps in military style that go overboard in their techniques to 'change' kids - the drawback into sending your child into boot camp, makes them likely to leave with personalities that heighten in a bad way. If you still wish to send him/her off to such a setting, you need to do ample research on places that are not so unforgiving to these kids.
Boot Camps for Boys
Boys should be set in a direction that don't involve a camp with hard programs that involve being constantly riled up, and physically exhausted all the time. Put boys in a place where there are challenging activities like kayaking, rappelling, hiking, trekking etc.
This gives them a chance to redirect their abilities to something worth being physically active for. They can then be open to different subjects, and choose a path that is best suited for them. There are good boot camps that aren't as military influenced as most of them are, that keep a boy growing the way he should.
Fitness Boot Camps
This boot camp from the sound of it, can be pretty tough to put your child into, since it won't be easy to have to deal with constantly being weighed under a physical fitness program 24/7. Make sure that these boot camps have a well planned out day of not just boot camp exercises, but with nurturing and counseling sessions with teens going through problems.
These places need a time for training, and a time to develop one's mind, and talents. Do your research on the place; going there to analyze the boot camp, is a smart way to approach a fitness boot camp.
Free Boot Camps
Free boot camps are usually state funded, and admit teens that have been in the juvenile system. Also known as jail/prison boot camps, these don't ideally make the situation pleasant for a teen, especially if he/she has not been made familiar to the juvenile system.
Some teens who are put into a free boot camp, are taken in without having been in a juvenile jail at all. Once a child leaves boot camp, there are chances he will make friends with those who've been in the system for a long time. This can turn ugly with them not actually changing for the better, but heading into a direction that will only lead to trouble.
This type of camp is mainly for those kids who are constantly breaking the law - this wouldn't seem helpful in the least for a child that you are hoping to transform without delinquent tendencies. It is better to put him/her in a place where there is an actual room for change.
Boot camps are a good idea to send your kids off during the summer holidays. Choosing the right camp is crucial. There's a lot to be learned from these camps, provided your child is put into a place where help is given in a way that doesn't damage his/her personality.
Hopefully, you'll do the right thing when picking out a camp for your child.

Judge: New York condo can vote to remove 'Trump Place' name
NEW YORK (AP) — The name "Trump Place" can be taken off a New York condominium high-rise if owners vote to do so, a judge ruled Thursday.
The ruling doesn't order the big, brassy letters removed from the 46-story luxury tower overlooking the Hudson River. Rather, the decision clears the way for an owners' vote on displaying the name licensed from President Donald Trump nearly two decades ago.
Trump's company has said Trump Place is obligated to keep the name on view and signaled Thursday that it plans to press on.
"While we respect (Manhattan state Supreme Court Justice Eileen) Bransten's ruling, we are confident that the appeals court will conclude otherwise," the Trump Organization said in a statement.
The owners' lawyer, Harry Lipman, declined to comment. It's unclear when they might vote on the issue, which came up as a number of other buildings removed the real estate developer-turned-president's name after his 2016 election.
Trump licensed his name in 2000 to the skyscraper at 200 Riverside Blvd., built as part of a redevelopment of former rail yards on Manhattan's Upper West Side.
But the moniker apparently became controversial among residents as Trump ascended to the presidency. A Republican, he came far from winning his heavily Democratic home city.
Owners in the 377-unit building broached concerns about security and marketability, but also about the potential legal and other costs of removing Trump's name, according to minutes of a May 2017 condo meeting.
They say that real estate brokers differed on whether the name hurt, helped or didn't affect the apartments' appeal, while police advised it didn't make the building a significant terror target.
Still, some 63 percent of owners who responded to an informal survey last year wanted the name removed, according to the minutes.
Trump's lawyers said the licensing agreement required the display of his name.
"The condominium has always been, and remains, obligated to use the Trump name on the building; it was part of the original deal going back several decades," attorney Lawrence Rosen said this past January. He said the board had "acted prematurely and improperly" in asking a court to decide whether the name could be removed without having had a formal vote on the issue.
The judge said the license agreement allows, but doesn't require, the use of Trump's name.
"That simply is not what the document says," Bransten said in delivering her ruling, according to The Washington Post.
Trump's name already has been removed from three nearby rental buildings but remains on other towers in the same development.
The owners of hotels in Manhattan's Soho neighborhood and in Toronto also have removed the Trump name from their buildings during the past year. It also was taken off a hotel in Panama City amid a dispute between the hotel owners and the Trump Organization, which contends it was wrongly fired as managers.
Many other hotels, golf clubs, residential buildings and other properties around the world continue to flaunt the Trump name.

I actually lost sleep last night deciding on what hike I would place in the #2 spot, and which one would be the ultimate #1 hike that I completed this summer. It was a very tight competition, both with spectacular views and a great challenge.
BUT alas, one had to receive the silver medal, and after much flip flopping, Avalanche Peak by the East Gate won the second prize.
With a 2,100 foot elevation gain, the view of Yellowstone park at 10, 568 feet was SPECTACULAR! It took my breath away, as did most of the haul uphill. The recommended 4 – 6 hour experience lasted my boyfriend and I a shade under an hour and a half. This was partly due to the approaching dark clouds. With this being one of the tallest peaks in the region, we didn't want to get caught in the lightning storm, obviously! So I must say, it was a quick jog down – straight down. I mean, I actually slid down the side of the mountain where the snow hadn't melted yet.
Yes – it was steep. The steepest hike I have ever done, actually.
There wasn't a dull moment on the hike up – filled with large aspens, and bright green ferns at ground level. A few springs popped out around the trail, and a hop or two over them were an adventure. I really DID mean to wash my hiking boots on this trip…
Once we arrived at the first opening, we were greeted with a snowy ground, a pretty little lake, and huge STORM CLOUDS quickly heading our way. We decided it was possible to beat the incoming rain if we quickened our pace. Phew – easier said than done. The elevation was getting to me, and the commencing shale trail was a bit tricky to cross.
We saw a few groups turning back due to the tricky ground and one couple in a bit of a tizzy – they had just seen a BEAR on the trail! Gasp – so we proceed with caution with our bear spray in hand, with the couple, as they pointed out the bear they were so worried about – a tiny deer about a mile away grazing on a grassy knoll. I actually had to get my binoculars out to see it. Oops.
Onward and upward, leaving that couple in the dust to coo over the deer.
After a careful, yet quick march to the summit, we were greeted by a solo hiker sitting cross legged staring off into the distance. It felt appropriate when I greeted him and asked, "so, the meaning of life is…..?". He also found that quite hilarious and admitted that he was trying to catch his breath.
The summit was actually not at this first peak, you actually have to go across a short ridge, and there you will find the official summit. And what you see when you look around this 360 degree view is amazingness all around. From this vantage point, you could see everything! We could point out Yellowstone Lake, Mount Washburn, even the Tetons which were 50 miles to the south!
If you are looking for the best view in the park – stop here and I dare you to find a better one.
PS – watch out for the wind 🙂

Walking the Tightrope of Full Participation
Just before graduating from the University of Southern California (USC) in 2014, Jasmine Torres spoke to the university's Board of Trustees about her experiences as a student.
Good morning. I grew up right in the USC neighborhood, where I went to Weemes Elementary School. My great grandma and I would walk across the USC campus when we went to the grocery store; and because I saw USC almost every day, when my teachers told me that I had to go to college one day, I assumed they meant USC…. [I]n the fifth grade, I was selected to be in the USC Neighborhood Academic Initiative (NAI)—a six-year college-prep program for neighborhood students that promises a full scholarship to USC upon completion of high school and admittance into the university. It was then that I realized I held my dream in my little hands and all I had to do was not drop it.
Like many urban universities, USC sits in the middle of one of the most impoverished communities in the state, and has instituted several access programs like NAI to provide tutoring and support to local students. But these programs often cannot account for the various twists and turns that occur in the lives of students from poor and working-class families.
When I was thirteen years old—due to many family issues at home—I became homeless. On Christmas Day of 2006, I found myself riding on a public bus with nowhere to go. It was on that bus that I saw a blue and orange sign that read, "LA [Los Angeles] County Hotline. If you need emergency food or shelter, call 211." I immediately got off the bus and walked towards the nearest pay phone. The woman on the other line of the phone referred me to a Hollywood youth shelter.... On this day, I entered the LA County foster care system.
At age thirteen, Jasmine was forced to choose between staying in her new group home and remaining in the NAI program, which was limited to residents of the neighborhood immediately surrounding USC.
My safety and stability being my top priority, I decided to stay in the group home I was familiar with and forfeited my spot in the scholarship program … [but] USC gave me the courage to believe in myself ... [knowing that] if I could get a scholarship once, I could do it again.... Throughout my times living in foster care, I had a huge USC banner in my room that reminded me every day to stay focused, telling myself again that the current situation was only temporary. Then one Friday afternoon in March [after having applied for admission], I got a phone call from my case manager [saying] that I had a package from USC. I hurried to the house, slowly opened it, and when I read the word "congratulations," I fell to my knees and cried. Being accepted to USC is still one of the happiest days of my entire life.
Any program intended to promote students' full participation—"an affirmative value focused on creating institutions that enable [all] people to thrive, … realize their capabilities, engage meaningfully in institutional life, and contribute to the flourishing of others" (Sturm et.al. 2011, 3)—must take into account the struggles and triumphs that some students experience before ever arriving on campus. These students are the community in our midst, and their success in college is one of the critical measures of any program of civic engagement.
I came to USC at seventeen years old, ambitious, and immediately knew that I wanted to get involved with my community and also become an advocate for other foster youth. As a freshman, I volunteered with the Joint Educational Project (JEP), where I tutored kids at the same elementary school that I went to as a kid and also mentored high school students at an after-school program.... [During] my sophomore year, I was invited to speak on a panel about education at Columbia University, and it was during that trip to New York City that I met Vice Dean George Sanchez.... [who] encouraged me to do undergraduate research on the topic [of the foster care system]. It was that year that I applied and was accepted into the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship for research. That same year I also traveled to Japan during the summer course taught by Dr. Sanchez.... And last summer, I was able to spend my summer at the University of Chicago for a summer research training program fully funded by the Mellon Foundation. It was each of these different opportunities that helped me grow into the stronger person, leader, and Trojan that I am today.
From Jasmine's perspective as a first-generation college student, high-impact practices that are critical to student success—practices like undergraduate research and study abroad (Kuh 2008)—must be linked to curricular, cocurricular, and extracurricular opportunities. It is not enough to have a single program supporting full participation; instead, we must provide multiple pathways for students to pursue the interests with which they enter college.
Through my research, my experience, and the education that USC has provided me ... I saw a great need for USC to provide support to Trojans who were formerly or [are] currently in the foster care system. I didn't want to graduate without turning this idea into a reality so students previously in foster care would have a program to assist them in reaching their own graduation day. I approached Dr. Sanchez with my idea, and in conjunction with the School of Social Work, Dornsife College, and the Rossier School of Education, we were able to officially launch our program [in fall 2013]....
To support students' full participation, we must advance student-led initiatives, especially when those efforts are well-researched and developed as part of a wider strategy of community empowerment. Such empowerment is a fundamental part of USC's educational mission, and it creates a training ground for action that will extend long after our students have graduated. The program Jasmine envisioned—called Trojan Guardian Scholars—not only has a lasting legacy on the USC campus; it also has launched a future activist for societal change.
Available research on foster youth show[s] that nationally less than 50 percent of foster youth graduate high school, less than 20 percent enroll in any kind of college, and … less than 3 percent graduate with a bachelor's degree (United Friends of the Children, n.d.).... Our youth deserve a chance. This program began with the shared belief that every USC student should be embraced into the Trojan family.... [I] envision USC becoming a leader in foster youth educational research and practice.... I know I will one day stand at another podium like this, saying that 100 percent of our foster youth students graduate from the University of Southern California.
Working with Jasmine Torres has been one of the most fulfilling collaborations I have had as an administrator committed to civic engagement. I have learned as much from Jasmine about addressing the real needs of individuals and communities as from any conference I have attended or scholarly work I have done. The practice of walking the tightrope between student needs and institutional cultures is something I have learned to cherish about my work with Trojan Guardian Scholars as I collaborate with working-class students to make a difference in their own communities during and after college.
Together we can change the stereotypes and the statistics that affect foster youth every day. As a university that believes and invests in every one of its students—like USC did with me.… Together we can encourage more youth in the foster care system to pursue higher education and lead successful adult lives.

Dreaming about the future of youth- Evance
To answer the question, what are my dreams or what is my passion in life? It appears to be tough and hard for me to give exact answer because dreams come and go, we never stop dreaming according to me. I think dreams shape our lives, how we should live to achieve those dreams and live the life we want…….
"when we were 7 years old they asked us what we want to be and our answers were like… we want to be teachers, doctors, pilots and astronauts, when we turned 15 they asked us the same questions and said we want to be lawyers, footballers and many answers but now we are grown up they will need a definite answer and we have to be sure what we say and want because that will be our life" …. (Based on Twilight Saga Movie)
My life has been like that too and this quote truly reflects what I have been doing. For the past three to four years ago, my dreams are shaped, based on the situation I found myself in. For example during my high school days, I wanted to become a lawyer because I admired those people and because I was good at subjects that enables one to go to law college but, to my disappointment I did not make it to any law college. That was in 2016… In 2017 I joined Lilongwe Technical College where I began to study Mechanics. Then I said to myself that I want to own my own garage and car business, that means the dream to have a degree was gone. However, that same year I got the chance to go to African Bible College where now am studying Community Development. That means from 2016 to 2018 I have switched from being a lawyer to a mechanic and now, I don't know, maybe I will be a social worker.
Now am 21 whereby people will need definite answer to the question above…. Currently I would say I want to be a social worker… all of my life I never wanted to be a person who should be much involved in community life but after one and half year of studying Community Development it has changed my life upside down. After interacting and sharing stories with those community people of whom most of them don't have the privilege as the rest of the citizens that their ideas and concerns are held in consideration, I come to conclusion that I would be happy to be part of that group of people, for example people with disabilities, elderly people and youth….
My previous post I talked about youth being leaders of tomorrow, I believe if we give the youth motivation and training and platform to express the abilities they have I think we can develop good leaders who will transform our society and country. So how can we motivate youth? I think through community youth centers, make education affordable to everyone which is normally not the case, and give them chances to do voluntary work and many more.
"People without vision they perish", that I don't want that to be the case with my life. Apart from what I said above it's my wish to be an independent person, to be a family man and have a stable household, and kids on top of that. I would wish to be a person who will be able to turn visions into reality as great leaders do.
All these dreams and wishes act as a framework which guides myself not to misbehave and do things which make a person one minute maybe in paradise then the rest in hell.

Tuesday's Tails!
Hi buddies!
For this week's Tuesday's Tails, we'd like you to meet a few older kitties, that would just love to spend the rest of their lives in a loving home.
Here's Calypso!
Just look at that face! According to Friends of Linden Animals "Calypso is a beautiful tortie girl with lots of cattitude. She is lovable and totally enjoys being petted but does not like to be held or handled for long periods of time. Calypso prefers to do things her way and on her terms (a typical tortie trait). For this reason she would not be a good choice for a family with small children. She likes to play and enjoys napping in her hammock afterwards."
Next we have Stella!
Now, meet Tracey!
We couldn't leave out Tracey, a sweet black kitty with beautiful eyes! Mom says she looks a lot like our Sparrow!
They've all been spayed and are up to date on their routine shots. These kitties and many more, can be seen at the shelter during daily adoption hours. If you are interested in adopting any of them, or for more information, please visit the Friends of Linden Animal Shelter's site to fill out the online application or contact the Friends of Linden Animal Shelter at email@example.com
Thanks to Dogs 'n Pawz fur sponsoring the Tuesday's Tails Blog Hop and thank you fur stopping by!

Whoa, Stella is a knockout! We grey tuxies are feisty.ReplyDelete
We wish them all good luck in finding a loving forever home. Have a wonderful Wednesday.ReplyDelete
Best wishes Molly
Those are pretty kitties! We hope they find homes soon.ReplyDelete

How to Write a Marketing Plan
Hopefully everyone spent the last part of last year deep in
strategic planning, developing a targeted marketing plan that will allow you to
make this
year your best year ever. But for any of you who may be a bit behind on
this process, I'd like to simply and
plainly examine what it means to write a marketing plan. In all reality,
this process can take months. It takes collaboration across the organisation.
It often requires buy in and budget approval. But for our purposes, I'd like to
start at the most basic level of each of the steps – because you have to start
Consider Your Current Situation
The mistake I most often see when dental practices begin writing a marketing plan is that they immediately START; they don't take the necessary and important step of analysing their business's current situation. You have to consider market trends and the state of the economy. Are spending habits of consumers going to change? Are technological advances going to make some services more or less desirable? You must look at competitors and what it is they are doing. Are my competitors doing anything new or exciting? Have other practices identified ways to attract new patients? Make sure you understand your financial situation. Will your lease end this year? Do you have loans that are due? I truly believe that you cannot know where you are headed if you don't know where you have been, and a situation analysis will give you the solid foundation you need in order to begin constructing a marketing plan.
Know Your Patients
Chances are, you don't have one kind of patient. In your practice, there are probably young families who like to come together and who have many other interests, older couples who like to come earlier, business clientele who demand after work appointments or at best, to be seen on time so as not to impact on their busy day. Although it may be the same service – dentistry – the same marketing is not going to be effective on such a variety of patient groups. You need to be able to segment your patients, your customers, at least loosely, so that you can market to them in a very specific way so that they feel their unique needs will be met through your business. If you don't know who your customers are at each level, it will be impossible to develop a successful marketing plan.
What are your goals?
You shouldn't create a strategic marketing plan because it's what a business is supposed to do; rather, you should do it because you have goals you want to meet. Do you want to attract new patients? Retain current patients so they are more loyal? Do you plan to open a second practice? If you have considered how you want to grow your business, your marketing goals should be a direct reflection of the larger overall goals. You could also consider improving upon existing strategies such as use of social media platforms, but you also might want to consider entirely new concepts like advertising on city buses or providing feedback cards or refer a friend cards.
Develop a Plan
Believe it or not, once you have reached this step, most of the hard work is behind you. If you know where you have been (situation analysis) and you know where you want to go (defining your goals), all your strategic marketing plan has to do is connect those two items. Identify the different platforms you plan to use – advertising, social media, email marketing, etc. – and define how you will use each platform to market to the different patient groups. List any new initiatives you plan to take on throughout the year and the steps required. Define your budget for marketing initiatives and clearly state who in the business is responsible for what. Your strategic marketing plan should be detailed enough that it can serve as a roadmap for your business; if anyone has questions about what the practice wants to achieve and how they want to achieve it, they should be able to refer to the plan.
Implement and Review
We have talked a lot about the fact that nothing changes if nothing changes, so once your plan is set forth and approved, CHANGE! Begin implementing the strategic plan immediately. Make sure everyone understands it's importance and their role in the process. Allow others to take responsibility where they can, but always make sure you are actively involved. Be sure you review your plan monthly or quarterly; don't wait until the end of the year to determine whether or not it was successful. Regular review of your strategic marketing plan will allow you the opportunity to make changes if something doesn't seem to be working, further guaranteeing your end of the year success. A strategic marketing plan shouldn't be a static document that sits on a shelf in the office; it needs to be a living, breathing piece of the practice that guides marketing efforts but also has the ability to change as the business changes.
Now, I will be honest: I wish it were THAT simple. But it is a starting point! One of the most important parts of this process is surrounding yourself by those who have both experience and expertise in this field. It's not too late to get that strategic plan set for this year. I encourage you to call me today at 07860 476 358, and together we will get to work!

nea studio showcase seaweed's design potential with hand-crafted algae lamps
Nina Edwards Anker, a Brooklyn-based designer and founder of architecture and design practice nea studio, has created a new collection of hanging pendant lamps made from dried sheets of algae.
Inspired by Edwards Anker's ethos of incorporating local and organic materials in her designs to give them a sense of place, the lights were designed to highlight the potential of seaweed and algae as a raw material.
Designed to be used with LED bulbs, the pendant shades are hand crafted from chlorophyta, a type of marine green algae, that has been treated to create a flexible yet firm transluc material. The treated algae sheets are then moulded around objects, before being left to dry. Topping each shade is a circular metal frame to attach a lightbulb to, that, when switched on, glows through the translucent shade. Due to the organic quality of the material each shade is completely unique, boasting its own sculptural structure and colour.
"We allow the raw nature of each individual sheet of seaweed to form it's own sculptural piece," says Edwards-Anker.
"The material retains its original organic nature, translucency and colour, so that each hand-crafted light shade becomes a unique sculptural piece on its own," she adds.
The lights are also customisable, with buyers able to choose from a number of configuration options and finishes, such as brushed brass, bronze and polished chrome.
In addition, the company is looking to expand the range with sconces and table lamps.
