There is a way to do this though it is undocumented and could be subject to breaking with new SF releases.
It is possible to add text after the year element of the Cron Expression - this text is ignored when the cron expression is parsed however it is available when querying the CronTrigger by CronExpression with a filter like "where CronExpression LIKE '% NAMEOFMYSCHEDULEDJOB'"
System.schedule('My Job Name', '0 59 23 31 12 ? 2013 MyJobName', new MyJob());
List<CronTrigger> listCronTrigger = [select Id, OwnerId, CronExpression from CronTrigger where CronExpression like '% MyJobName'];

Reddick Mansion is prepping for exterior renovations that are expected to begin next year.
The Reddick Mansion Association took possession of the building in August 2017 and was expected to complete a $700,000 exterior restoration within six years.
Association President Lorraine McCallister said while passersby may not see exterior work being completed that doesn't mean work isn't being done behind the scenes.
The first year has been spent getting specifics as to the scope of the project and hiring the architecture firm of Basalay, Cary & Alstadt to be the architects of record. They've also hired Historic Architect Anne Sullivan of the Art Institute of Chicago to ensure the restoration is as historically accurate as possible.
A pre-qualification process was conducted to determine six prospective contractors with experience in the restoration of historic properties that can submit bids. The mansion was built in 1855.
McCallister said currently, intricate details are being sorted out such as what cords to place on the windows to open them up and they've also uncovered old locks from the windows downstairs, which will be replicated and placed on the windows.
The balconies have also been examined and core sampling was conducted to find the best procedure to restore the flooring both for structure and architectural design purposes.
She credits the extensive work of Diane Birtwell and Stephen Meyer in guiding the restoration efforts as well as Nancy Barta, who has spearheaded some grounds projects.
The pergola and shed have been painted as well as the garden gates so that the grounds match the exterior of the building when work is completed.
McCallister said work in October will consist of reviewing the specifications of the project and they hope to bid the project in November with work expected to begin next year.
"It's really beginning to hit us," McCallister said. "This is going to happen. This is going to be a reality."

I'm sure many still remember him. I wonder what happened to the police investigations. Hopefully not a case of missing files or witnesses. And you know, his three year suspension has been reduced to one year by his political party, and today he's back in action (already one year!).
He is none other than Ahmad Ismail, a sorry excuse of an human, who lives under the guise of local leader of a political party. Well, just read for yourself his returning speech. Its gonna get hot in Penang!
Local Umno warlord Ahmad Ismail said Gerakan's top leaders must apologise to him if they want to work together with the Bukit Bendera Umno division again.
The vocal Penang politician was suspended for three years last September for describing non-Malays as 'pendatang' or immigrants during the Permatang Pauh by-election.
However, the Umno supreme council decided to lift the suspension last Friday – a little over one year after imposing the punishment.
Contacted by Malaysiakini, Ahmad wanted Gerakan president Dr Koh Tsu Koon, party state chief Dr Teng Hock Nan and former Bukit Bendera MP Chia Kwang Chye to publicly apologise to him.
He claimed that the trio were responsible for the breakdown in relationship between Gerakan, his division and Penang Umno during the height of the controversy.
At one point, enraged supporters of Ahmad had even torn posters of Koh.
"Even if they apologise, I will still have to consider whether to accept it or not," he said.
Ahmad, who came under fire from the Gerakan leaders then, said unlike the Barisan Nasional component party, Bukit Bendera Umno was not dependant on Gerakan's support for its survival.
He pointed out that of the four seats in Bukit Bendera – one parliamentary and three state – Gerakan contested three while MCA stood in one state seat.
The Umno leader said due to geo-political circumstances, Umno was not going to contest in Bukit Bendera.
"So politically, Gerakan needs our support to win back these seats. They are dependent on us but we don't need them," he added.
On his future in Umno, Ahmad said he has always been active in the party even during his suspension.
"I never left Umno… I was only suspended from holding positions," he added.
During his suspension, the division leadership was helmed by Jalil Ariffin via party elections last year.
Ahmad said Jalil had suggested holding a fresh elections in order to pave the way for his return to the top post.
However, Ahmad said he would discuss with Umno president Najib Abdul Razak tomorrow afternoon on the proposal.
Meanwhile, Penang Umno welcomed the decision by the Umno supreme council to lift the suspension on Ahmad.
"I believe the party supreme council had seriously considered the matter before making the decision and Penang Umno would always welcome Ahmad," he said.

BANBURY's new MP paid a heartfelt tribute to her predecessor Sir Tony Baldry yesterday as she took the reins and increased his sizeable majority.
Conservative Victoria Prentis won 30,749 votes, a 53 per cent share of the vote and a majority of 18,395.
Speaking to the Oxford Mail after the result was announced, the former government lawyer said she had "big shoes to fill" after Sir Tony's departure.
Mrs Prentis, 43, who was head of justice and security at the Treasury Solicitors' Department, said: "Sir Tony has been the most fantastic MP for the last 32 years and I am going to have a hard act to follow.
"I never expected to increase his majority. It is extraordinary and a testament to the strong Conservative council we have [in Cherwell] and the fact we have benefitted locally from the national economic boom.
"I feel great. The local result is great but the national result is also fantastic."
The mother-of-two – whose first congratulatory phone calls were from her daughters and 92-year-old grandmother – said she would spend this weekend writing "thank you letters" and baking cakes for an annual celebration in her home village of Somerton.
On Monday she will be due in the House of Commons for induction activities.
But Westminster and the lawmaking that takes place there will be less alien to her than to many other new MPs.
Before her selection as Conservative candidate was announced in November, she was head of justice and security at the Treasury Solicitors' Department.
She was warmly endorsed by Sir Tony, who said she would make an "outstanding MP".
He was first elected in 1983 to the Banbury constituency seat, which has been controlled by a string of Conservative MPs since 1922, In 2010, Sir Tony had a majority of 18,227 votes, but Mrs Prentis managed to increase that marginally by 168 votes.
Turnout in the election overall was 65.84 per cent, an increase of about one percentage point on 2010.
Labour candidate Sean Woodcock came second with 12,354 votes (21.2 per cent), followed by UKIP candidate Dickie Bird with 8,050 (13.9 per cent), Liberal Democrat candidate John Howson with 3,440 (5.9 per cent), Green candidate Ian Middleton with 2,686 (4.6 per cent) and National Health Action Party candidate Roseanne Edwards with 729 (1.3 per cent).
At the count, in the Spiceball Leisure Centre, delighted Conservative activists cheered as the result was announced shortly before 7.30am.
Despite Banbury's reputation as a safe seat for the Conservatives, campaigners said they did not take for granted how much of Sir Tony's majority Mrs Prentis would carry over.
Her election agent Chris Rowlands, said: "We are absolutely delighted."

Tang Yan and Luo Jin's wedding entourage, venue and invitation
posted by Anne J on October 29, 2018 5 comments
After their splashy dating revelation when Princess Weiyoung aired two years ago, Luo Jin and Tang Yan have been keeping things low key to the extent that it actually sparked break up rumors at some point. It's absurd now that you think about it because fast forward to this month, and it's official - they've tied the knot in what could be considered the wedding of the year in C-ent! Except there are hardly any photos because the two went through great lengths to keep the event private. Apparently, guests weren't allowed to bring their phones. Instead, they get nifty instant cameras as a welcome gift.
I'm happy that they get to have the wedding that they want, though I'm still hoping that maybe either of them can share even just a tiny glimpse of the wedding. In the meantime, here's what we do know.
The bridesmaids. Yukee Chen Yuqi who's under the management of Tang Yan Studio played a supporting character in Princess Weiyoung. Wang Guan is a TV host on Dragon TV. Guo Xiaoting starred in Chinese Paladin 3 alongside Tang Yan. Xu Baihui is Tang Yan's classmate from college and a fellow actress.
The groomsmen. Sun Jian, Ming Dao, Bian Jiang and a non-celebrity. Bian Jiang is an actor and prolific voice actor. He is the voice of Mo Yuan / Yehua in Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms and of course, Tuo Bajun in Princess Weiyoung.
The guests. Despite the no photo rule, there were paparazzi shots of Hu Ge and Sun Jian arriving at the venue via horse carriage (see pics). Honestly, I can't tell that it's them. Jane Zhang and Crystal Liu Yifei offered their congratulations and expressed their regrets that they couldn't make it to the wedding. Yang Mi also sent her warm regards to the newly weds through weibo.
The date and venue. The wedding was held on October 28, 2018 at the Belvedere Palace in Vienna, Austria.
The vows. Sun Jian who is Tang Yan's classmate and a groomsman shared a preview of the words that the couple exchanged at the ceremony. Luo Jin said: Please take care of me for the rest of our lives. Tang Yan said: I married love. A netizen also shared what she overheard from outside the venue. Tang Yan said: I am certain that you are the person that I have been looking for (although said netizen admits that she couldn't really hear very clearly from outside 😂).
The wedding invitation.

Opened in 1905, Dongdaemun market is an icon of Seoul. It is actually a large area spanning many blocks. The area comprises of shopping malls and traditional markets. It is a mixture of modern and traditional.
It was late morning and I was getting hungry. Time for a Korean meal.
We headed into Gwangjang Market, a popular traditional market in Dongdaemun.
You can get the best bargains and the best foods in traditional markets.
Everyone is sitting down to eat breakfast or lunch.
There are a lot of choices.
Pick a seat and eat.
Most of the stalls are manned by the elderly who work their trade in preparing food.
Do prepare to squeeze around as you look for food and a place to sit.
Sundae, blood sausages.
Bibimbap is one of the common meals for Koreans. It is a simple dish comprising of many vegetables put together in a bowl.
The colorful ingredients are all thrown in to the metal bowl.
A large variety of vegetables, so colorful and tasty to the eyes.
We placed our order.
It arrives like this. Then start mixing with your spoon.
This is the final product and it was a hearty meal at KRW2500 per bowl.
On to the next meal.

Back from the edge of darkness! Courtesy of what were the tremendously unlikely set of events that took place on May 3rd 2014, here we all are on the eve of a new season as a Football League club. As I poured through the fixtures the morning they were released back in June, not even the prospect of Tuesday night fixtures in Exeter and Plymouth could dampen my spirits. A fairy tale ending to what was a nightmare of a season has felt like a turning point for the whole club.
With the takeover bids declared dead in the water soon after that wonderful day at Plainmoor, Gareth Ainsworth was handed a reduced budget and a long list of out of contract players to contend with.
Grateful for the time granted to learn the lessons from last season, Ainsworth has fashioned a squad which emphasises on quality rather than quantity. The signings of Sido Jombati, Aaron Pierre, Peter Murphy and Paul Hayes have also added some much needed physical presence to a team that got bullied on many occasions last season in a combative league. Joe Jacobson has arrived with an excellent reputation at left back which will allow Sam Wood to add some much needed width on the left whilst a fit again Paris Cowan Hall can hopefully add some spark down the right. The recent loan additions of Danny Rowe and Nicky Walker have added numbers to a very thin squad which could be reliant on some astute usage of the loan windows as the season progresses. With that in mind, the roles of Cian O'Doherty and Dave Wates in a new medical set up for the club will also play a large part in the forthcoming season.
With re conditioned goal posts, courtesy of Gareth, Richard Dobson and Barry Richardson plus a coat of paint inside from a supporters working group, the training ground feels refreshed. Ainsworth is now only referred to as 'Gaffer' by the squad who were all decked out in suits before and after the Reading pre season game. Small changes they maybe, but it has brought about a business like atmosphere during pre season.
Of course, non of the above can be properly judged until we start to see an improvement in results and performances in the unforgiving world of League Two.
Another lesson that Gareth has learnt is not to make predictions on where the club will finish in the table. New chairman Andrew Howard has called for a season of consolidation whilst the club continues to sort itself out off the pitch and I think many fans would be satisfied with this.
Newport County took six points of Wycombe Wanderers last season and both games were an excellent example of teams bullying the smaller Chairboys. The chief protagonist (at least from the Adams Park fixture) David Pipe may well have departed The Exiles to join Forest Green but a tough physical workout is still on the cards at Rodney Parade. I'm a fan of Justin Edinburgh's rise into management and he is also tactically astute and can count himself unlucky to not make the play offs last season, thwarted by a horrific run of postponements. Edinburgh has used his non league knowledge in bolstering his squad and the signing of Yan Klukowski looks the pick of the bunch who will look to impress in midfield. Whatever happens on the opening day, both teams will be able to benefit from this game being played on grass, instead of the freshly ploughed beach from last April.

This course provides students with a perfect excuse to indulge in the seemingly frivolous world of prize pageants with all their glamour and gossip. We will use the material that emerges from this exploration to ask probing questions about what factors contribute toward the selection of a winner, and what we can learn about a society through the winner that it favours.
Prizes and Popular Culture will provide students with the opportunity to learn and apply five core strategies that underlie successful scholarly writing:
· analyzing how authors argue in favour of a certain position,
· comparing opposing positions and attempting to synthesize these through scholarly engagement,
· organizing and expressing ideas to guide readers through a line of reasoning,
· documenting sources,
· revising the content, wording, and organization of a paper, as well as surface features such as spelling, punctuation, etc.
These strategies will be applied as students produce expository writing on the topic of prizes.
Students must have passed/been exempted from the NUS Qualifying English Test (QET) or
have passed CELC English for Academic Purposes modules.
Problem-based learning, Q&A, blogging, peer reviews, conferencing.
Introduction to the Module Content
Every time we listen to music or watch a film or read a book we are consciously or subconsciously passing judgement on it. What is it that makes one person love a film, and another hate it? To what extent are we influenced by our peers, figures of authority or the media in developing a taste for certain works of art and not for others? (A high profile example of a single person influencing reading taste is Oprah Winfrey through her Book Club.) Think of prizes today and certain spectacular events spring to mind: the Oscars (and their fashions), American Idol (and the love-to-hate-him character of Simon Cowell – now already part of history), the Booker (and its scandals) and the Tate (and its controversies).
In the world of art prizes there is no clear starting and finishing line that allows for a clear and objective winner. Although competitions advertise their unbiased and objective judging process, this course will consider to what extent this is true, or even possible. There is certainly a growing interest in the process of evaluating and we watch in fascination as competitions in writing, acting, clothes designing, singing and dancing are increasingly played out in the media for public comment and criticism.
There are prizes for which the judges remain a powerful, but obscure force, such as the Nobel Prize. However, very often we, the viewers, are invited to be judges. In the case of American Idol, the judging process has been largely democratized. Is the intention to be deliberately non-elitist? Certainly, there appears to be less control over the process. Because the buyer of the ultimate product of American Idol (downloads, music CDs and DVDs) is the 'ordinary person' in the person of the voter, the cynic may conclude that the intention is to allow popular taste to dictate because popular taste will consume the product of its choice. It takes away a lot of financial risk.
Are there competitions that you are avid followers of, perhaps American Idol, Singapore Idol, Asia's Biggest Loser, the Golden Horse Awards, the Oscars, the Booker prize in literature, or the Nobel prize? What draws you to these competitions? Do you agree with the choice of winner? What do you think of the judges? What do you know about them? In conversations with friends about the competitors do you find yourself straying from judging the talent to commenting on other factors: the personality of the participant, his/her clothes, personal life, culture, religion, sexual orientation? To what extent do you think judges are swayed by these external factors? What do you know about the sponsors of these prizes and their role in influencing decisions? How important do you think the role of the media is in guiding public taste and making or breaking the careers of finalists?
In this course we will read a variety of texts: academic journals, films, video clips, newspaper articles, online reviews, competition websites and blogs. We will study articles written by people intrigued by contradictions in the process of judging a winner. You will be invited to participate in this debate and identify issues and examples that you find fascinating enough to warrant research and analysis.

Deutsche Windtechnik welcomes polar researcher Arved Fuchs and his crew at the Butendiek offshore wind farm
The sailing ship and its crew were welcomed by Carl Rasmus Richardsen, Managing Director of Deutsche Windtechnik Offshore und Consulting GmbH. Arved Fuchs and his team received detailed information about the use of offshore wind energy during a tour of the substation, which Deutsche Windtechnik provides maintenance for. In particular, this included issues relating to technology, operation, maintenance and the environmental sustainability of offshore wind energy.
The purpose of Arved Fuchs' new expedition "Turn the Page", which will take him and his sailing crew from Hamburg across the North Sea to the Shetland Islands, the Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland and further into the Canadian Arctic, is to set an example for environment and sustainability. He is not only documenting the consequences of climate change, he also wants to raise public awareness regarding existing solutions.
Arved Fuchs said, "Climate change is a fact and the causes are well-known. Pretending that we can continue doing 'business as usual' is irresponsible and violates any sense of intergenerational justice. It is time to focus on possible solutions. This includes offshore wind energy. Energy suppliers, individual governments and large sections of the civilian population have long since reacted to the changing situation and have taken corresponding steps."
Matthias Brandt, Board Director at Deutsche Windtechnik AG, emphasised: "We believe in what we do in the field of renewable energies, and we are always prepared to work on ourselves and on our guidelines to improve the environmental friendliness of our actions and actively support the energy transition." The company trained a number of its employees in the area of safety technology at the company's own Training Center so that they could visit the offshore substation. "We are happy to support Arved Fuchs because the preservation of our resources is not only meaningful from a business point of view, it also represents a fundamental social obligation.
The offshore wind farm Butendiek is located approximately 32 km west of Sylt. The wind farm went into operation in 2015, and its 80 wind turbines supply approximately 370,000 households with renewable energy.
Information and pictures of the visit to the substation at the Butendiek wind farm are available online via the Facebook page "Arved Fuchs Expeditions". Further information about the course, motivation and goals of the expedition as well as the composition of the crew can also be found there.

Coveted retro Air Jordans among 14,800 counterfeit Nike sneakers seized in California bust
Agents discovered the fake kicks in containers labeled as napkins.
Customs and Border Protection agents at the country's largest seaport seized more than 14,800 pairs of counterfeit Nike sneakers for trademark infringement after examining a shipment that arrived from China.
Agents at the Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach discovered the fake kicks in two containers that were "misdeclared as 'napkins' in a clear attempt to disguise the illicit cargo," the CBP said in a statement Wednesday.
The shoes, which were seized for infringing on a protected trademark, would have had an estimated retail price of $2,247,680 if they were authentic.
Retro classics like the Air Jordan 1s Off-White, Air Jordan 11s and Air Max '97s were among the designs targeted. Some of the shoes could go for as much as $2,000 on the online collectors scene, according to the CBP.
"These special edition Nike and retro designs are highly coveted by collectors and sport shoes enthusiasts. A legitimate pair can potentially sell for $1,500 and up to $2,000 online," the CBP said in a statement. "Consumers shopping online are eventually likely to encounter fraudulent sellers."
CBP Port Director of the LA/Long Beach Seaport LaFonda Sutton-Burke called the counterfeit shoe business a lucrative criminal industry that "becomes more profitable in markets involving successful and popular products" like Nike's Jordan brand.
"Counterfeit brand-name shoes is a multi-million dollar criminal industry. The trafficking of these items is extremely lucrative and becomes more profitable in markets involving successful and popular products," Sutton-Burke said. "CBP commits substantial resources to detect, intercept and seize illicit goods at our nation's largest seaport."
CBP agents at the Port of New York/Newark seized a shipment containing more than 9,000 counterfeit Nike sneakers from China last December. If genuine, those kicks would have been worth nearly $1.7 million, according to the CBP.
ABC News' Jennifer Weiss Watts contributed to this report.

Today has been very booky on io9, what with the absolutely awesome chapter from the newest Scott Lynch book, the very sad news about Iain M Banks and the usual Wednesday Bookclub. It got me thinking...
We're a pretty bookish tribe, so let's help each other out. My modest proposal is this: we either leave a comment suggesting a book we love and why people might like it, or leave a comment with some books you enjoy and other Niners will suggest books you may also like.
(I partly blame/credit this idea to our dear Darklighter, because I saw a lot of people on the Scott Lynch post were mentioning Patrick Rothfuss and he answered my "is he any good?" answer quite emphatically on Twitter. I bought it this afternoon!)
So go, tell us about a book you love that you think others should read, or ask for some suggestions!

Powerful Confidence Spells For Men
The key distinguishing feature of any man is his ability to stand in front of woman and state his intentions. The trouble is that confidence may not always come naturally and that is the reason why most men have lost opportunity to get the women who actually met their love demands. A number of men have been too shy to even approach a woman and in case they gathered some confidence, they have ended up being embarrassed in front of women in whom they were interested.
Powerful Confidence Spells: Be a Real Man
I have decided to save the situation using my confidence spells for men and I want any man out there to come and use them because they are very powerful. It does not matter whether you are already in a relationship or not, what I want is to give you confidence not just in matters related to love but so that you can face life as a whole. I want to give you courage to go head on to any challenge in life and get it addressed at once because that will prove your identity as a man.
Effective Confidence spells are the ideal solution to any man who wants to prove his manhood and I want you not to hesitate at any moment to get your confidence boosted.
Why Cast my Powerful Confidence Spells?
It is on rare occasions that a woman will approach a man with intentions of falling in love and even then, she needs to see your manliness. You will have to do most of the work to make any woman fall in love with you. I am giving you the chance to get any woman the easy way by means of most powerful confidence spells and it does not matter how different you are from the woman of your target; it is all about confidence.

Apricot (Prunus armeniaca)
Other common names: Armenian plum, abricot, Armeniaca vulgaris (syn.), damasco
The following information may not be re-posted, copied or published without my permission and appropriate credit given. Please contact me via email (listed on the About page) if you wish to re-publish any of the information on my blog.
Family: Rosaceae
Emollient (oil), nutritive, anti-inflammatory, demulcent
Harvest: The fruit is harvested in July or August upon ripening.
Part used: Fruit, oil extracted from the kernel
Amygdalin, olein, vitamin C, beta-carotene, thiamine, iron, fiber, potassium, niacin, sugars, copper, and others.
Infertility, anemia, inflammation, skin conditions (especially dry skin conditions), eye health (as an internal supplement), nutritional deficiency, asthma, dry respiratory complaints, irritation along the gastrointestinal tract.
Medicinal preparations:
The ripe fruit can be eaten directly or used in cooking. Some have used a man-modified version of amygdalin, one of the constituents derived from the kernel, as a medicinal remedy – Do NOT take this remedy (known as laetrile, vitamin B17, or Amigdalina B-17) unless it is on the advice of your physician. It has been marketed as a cancer "cure", however it can be quite dangerous (and illegal) and I would personally not recommend it.
Apricot kernel oil is used in cosmetics and therapeutic massage oils and as a base ingredient for topical salves and ointments.
Use of the fruit as a food item, is safe for most (although of course, allergies may result as with any food). However, internal use of the kernel constituents (such as in the drug laetrile) is not recommended without the guidance of a physician (and in some countries, it is actually illegal). Hypersensitivity and allergy may occur after internal or external use.
I suggest consulting a pharmacist or physician before starting any herbal supplement if you are taking a prescription medication or have serious underlying health concerns.

So how would you utilize catchphrases to draw in guests and convince web indexes that you can offer exactly what their clients are searching for? Try not to think all that you are told or perused, in light of the fact that this seems, by all accounts, to be an exceptionally dubious point.

By Rick Pearcey
* From a column by Jeff Jacoby: "If Christian belief and practice weren't vanishing from the British scene, Christian-themed cards wouldn't be, either. But some Britons, not all of them devout, are resisting the tide.
"Writing in the Telegraph, editor-at-large Jeff Randall -- who describes himself as 'somewhere between an agnostic and a mild believer' -- announces that any Christmas card he receives that doesn't at least mention the word 'Christmas' goes straight into the trash."
Randall writes: "Jettisoning Christmas-less cards is my tiny, almost certainly futile, gesture against the dark forces of political correctness . . . . It's a swipe at those who would prefer to abolish Christmas altogether, in case it offends 'minorities.' Someone should tell them that, with only one in 15 Britons going to church on Sundays, Christians are a minority."
* Opening lines from Randall's column: "My rubbish bin is full of Christmas cards. I threw them there." The rest of the column.

Yelm is the fiery disc as well as Yelm the Emperor. Yelmalio is the Mountain Sun, or Winter Sun, or the Halo around Yelm's head, the weak sun without heat. Kargzant is the Sun Horse, possibly Yelm's Mount, or Yelm as a Horse. Elmal is the Storm Sun, the Friendly Sun, the Sun who helps them.

Harry T. Harmer, Artist | Spitalfields Life
... The facts of the life of Harry T. Harmer (1927-2013) are scarce yet
his distinctive paintings speak eloquently of his personal vision. Born
in Kennington, Harry was afflicted with epilepsy and married his wife
Ruby when they were both in their adolescence. Ruby offered Harry
emotional support in the face of a father who did not recognise his
disorder and the couple enjoyed a marriage that lasted through eight
decades. ...
Disqualified from military service, Harry worked in the parks department
and, possessing a strong sense of justice, he fought for the rights of
fellow workers through many years as a union representative. In the
mid-fifties, Harry discovered an ability to draw and paint, travelling
around Kennington and north of the river to the East End, making
sketches of places that embodied the living city he knew intimately. ...
For most of their married life, Harry and Ruby Harmer occupied a council
flat in a dignified Victorian terrace in Kennington, where Ruby lives
today tending to an appealingly unkempt garden and a posse of
neighbourhood cats. In the back room overlooking the garden where Harry
did his paintings, his small formica topped work table still stands by
the window where today a box of his ashes sits beside a bunch of fresh
flowers that Ruby changes each week. The popularity of Harry's works
means that Ruby is the devoted custodian of just a few of her husband's
paintings, and a suitcase of his pencil sketches, press cuttings and
exhibition catalogues. ...

With fall finally here, I've been looking all around to see what is new in plus sizes. And I have to say, some of it is really exciting. I just love when a brand, new or old, steps up and brings it! Below is a list of brands that I think are really bringing their A-game right now and give me hope about the direction of plus size fashion. So, if you don't know about them or haven't taken a look in a while, now is the time. Because, gurrrl, this ish is hot!
10 Plus Size Brands to Know
Anna Scholz
I have been a fan of Anna Scholz for awhile now. I have one of her tunics and every time I wear it, I get complements. As always, she is bringing us hot pieces and quality clothing that can easily go from the office to happy hour. Some are pricey though. But there are some more affordable pieces mixed into the collection.
You can shop Anna Scholz on her website.
City Chic
I know that I feature City Chic a lot, but I just think they have a wonderful collection of fashion-forward clothes for plus sizes. And that is rare! I also appreciate that many of their pieces have some sex appeal. They have clothes that you can wear to work or rock at a concert and adorable dresses perfect for daytime or formal occasions. They even have sexy lingerie!
You can shop City Chic on their website, which ships to the US for free. You can also shop City Chic at ASOS, Bloomingdale's, Lord & Taylor, Macy's and Nordstrom.
Eloquii brings it every. damn. time. They have designs considered "daring for plus sizes," that I see no other brands carrying. Bold prints, bright colors, modern silhouettes! Bravo! Most of the collection goes to a size 24, with many pieces in sizes 26 and 28. They also have "viola" cuts meant for pear shaped women with hips 1 – 2 sizes larger than their bust.
You can shop Eloquii on their website.
Elvi is a plus size brand based in the UK. They offer modern designs through size 26UK/22US.
You can shop Elvi on their website, which ships to the US and Canada, and ASOS or Nordstrom.
Good American
Good American is a Khloe Kardashian's brand which features mainly denim, but also sweats and bodysuits. ALL styles are available in sized 0 to 24. Can I get an amen? You can read the review of Good American in a variety of sizes here.
You can shop Good American on their website or at Nordstrom.
Love & Legend by Addition Elle
Addition Elle is a Canadian brand, but they ship to the US and are carried by US stores Lord & Taylor and Nordstrom. They are pretty size-inclusive, going from sizes 12 – 26. Go to their website for the complete collection.
You can shop Love & Legend Addition Elle on their website, Lord & Taylor or Nordstrom.
Michel Studio by Addition Elle
Michel Studio is plus size work clothes you want to wear all the time!
You can shop Michel Studio at Addition Elle, Lord & Taylor or Nordstrom.
Rebel Wilson x Angels
Rebel Wilson came out with a plus size collection that anyone can appreciate. It's bold and chic with some staples mixed in.
You can shop Rebel Wilson x Angels at Addition Elle, Dillard's, Lord & Taylor, or Nordstrom.
Universal Standard
Universal Standard is a modern and fashion-forward collection in sizes 10 – 28. They have a core collection called Universal Fit Liberty, which allows you to return a piece that no longer fits due to a size fluctuation and replace it with your new size within a year. That is brilliant! Considering I have a collection of clothes in 5 sizes (no joke) due to weight fluctuations, that is a really great idea.
You can shop Universal Standard on their website or Nordstrom.
Violeta by Mango
I really love the modern style of Violeta by Mango, but my complaint is that they only go to a size 22. But when I checked for actual items available in that size, it becomes clear they only go up to a size 20. So, unfortunately, they are really limiting their customers.
You can shop Violeta by Mango on the Mango website.

1 Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
2 And the LORD said unto me, Fear him not: for I will deliver him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.
3 So the LORD our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
4 And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside unwalled towns a great many.
6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.
7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.
8 And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land that was on this side Jordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon;
9 (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call it Shenir;)
10 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, unto Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

Now a quick little introduction here, Password managers are programs which are used to save logins and other relevant credentials, so you don't have to enter them manually each time you visit a website for which you have saved the username and password for.
What is Firefox Password manager? It is a Password manager tool/utility that Mozilla Firefox comes pre-installed with. It's a simple to use Password/Credential Manager which saves Logins (on your consent)for the site that you visit.
Firefox Password manager can save multiple logins for a single site and can save credentials like emails, usernames, and passwords, so you don't have to enter them each time you log into a website.
Is it secure?
Firefox password manager stores your passwords unencrypted, but that is if you have not set a master password. To make your credentials more secure, you can set a master password on the Firefox password manager. It adds an extra layer of security on your account by encrypting your passwords with 56-bit AES cipher encryption. Every time you open firefox, it would ask you to enter the master password. You can also simple cancel the prompt, but then none of your saved credentials will show up when you try to log into a website.
What is my experience?
My experience has been Pretty Good actually. I have been using Firefox for as long as I can remember. I have FF installed both on my PC and my Android device, and I love every second of it. Like many, I also use the built-in password manager of Firefox to save passwords for some of the sites that I use daily And have not once faced any problem with the PW manager. Using it is also very easy. You can save passwords for the sites that you want to and decline the 'save password' prompt on other sites.
Managing, changing and deleting saved credentials is also a straightforward process. All these settings can be found in the Privacy and Security section of Firefox's preferences. Usually, anyone with access to your computer (or browser) can access your login credentials. So a setting a master password is a must.
I use a master password to secure my Firefox password manager, and I would recommend everyone to do so. It encrypts your passwords, and any other user who has access to your computer can not check the saved usernames and passwords without the correct code.
If you are shifting to a new PC, instead of logging in to your Firefox account to sync your passwords, details, history, etc., you can move your Firefox UserData (Profile) from one PC to other. It is very easy to do, and you can easily find many tutorials related to this on the web.
So, should you use it?
The answer is yes, Firefox's built-in Password Manager is good and secure enough for standard use. But if you want to save some very important logins or credentials, then I would suggest that you go with other much secure solutions like BitWarden. If you are a security conscious person like me, then you can turn off sync logins setting from the Firefox Account tab in the settings to stop your passwords from going to the cloud.
There you go, this was my take on firefox's Password manager. Share this post on your social media and also comment down below if you have any questions or query regarding this topic. Aloha!.

Would you recommend this product?No reviews yet
Dear All, 12 years back, my mom choked in her sleep. My dad and I rushed her to the ER (Emergency Room) in the back of a car. By God's grace, she survived. Sitting outside the ICU, I asked myself why are there no Emergency Ambulance Services in India similar to 911 in USA. These questions led me to found Ziqitza Health Care Limited (Dial 1298 for Ambulance) which we grew to be the Developing World's Largest Emergency Ambulance company. Yet, after 12 years and 1300+ Ambulances, I saw huge gap in making emergency response services available across the developing world. 6.25 billion people do not have access to emergency response service which is taken for granted in the developed world. The other 0.75 billion people who do have access to emergency response service is finding is increasingly delayed and expensive. We believe MUrgency - UN RESEAU GLOBAL DE REPONSE D'URGENCE (One Global Emergency Response Network) will revolutionize emergency response globally. Pls share and support

Wow I can see this being especially important for developing countries! Which countries are you launching in? Also, how many emergency responders do you have, and how are they vetted/trained? Do you suggest people use this in conjunction with state-run emergency services? Awesome stuff
Upvote (7)Share
@stoneadam Hey Adam! We definitely see this as a much-needed service in developing countries that lack gov't-run emergency response. In the end, everyone deserves a helping hand in times of pain and crisis. Our pilot market — where will be rolling out boots-on-the-ground emergency response — is Punjab State, in northwest India. We believe Punjab is an ideal place for our proof of concept because of its high smart-phone penetration. Right now we are recruiting trained medical professionals (doctors, nurses, EMTS, ambulances) in Punjab state. We're checking their background and credentials, and adding them into our network. Once we've achieved sufficient saturation, we will turn on the RESPONSE feature. This is our KILLER FEATURE. It allows you to send out a message for help — and nearby first responders will respond directly to you. It's emergency response on demand. Our network integrates with existing ambulance companies and services. In a place like Punjab, we are partnering with local ambulance companies, and providing a platform that helps them to better connect with people in need of urgent out-of-hospital care. Of course, our app is available globally, and the response is rolling out market-by-market. Our second killer feature works anywhere: our Trusted Network. This gives you the ability to build your personal trusted network of friends, neighbors, coworkers, family, etc. So if you're hurt, you blast a message to your Trusted Network, and your neighbor comes running, shows up in 30 seconds, and gives you first aid while waiting for the ambulance to arrive. We also facilitate communication between your trusted network and a responder if you've requested one. Hope this answers your questions! Feel free to shoot any more our way.

@stoneadam We are launching four soft features globally. The MUrgency Responder function is being launched region by region starting with Punjab (India).
murgency is a game changer that has the opportunity to make a real difference in the world. I heard them pitch this past December at GMIC (they came in 2nd place). One of the judges, who was quite distinguished, just couldn't comprehend that you don't always get a trained medical specialists within minutes of calling 9-1-1, especially in developing countries like India.

@zushizack Hi Zack, thank you for pointing out that 911 service which is taken for granted in US and similar services in the developed world is not available to the developing world. Look forward to your continued support.
Lack of Timely Care Kills More People Than AIDS, Malaria and TB Combined which makes this problem incredibly relevant for the 5+ billion people who don't have access to it. So the story behind Shaffi, the founder is pretty wild. His mother had a stroke in the early 2000's. Fast forward 10 years later, Shaffi started India's largest ambulatory service with 1000+ vehicles and 5000 employees/teammates. Here he is on TED talking about it: https://www.ted.com/talks/shaffi... This new evolution has more to do with servicing the last mile.
Shaffi...are you familiar with relief watch? Could be some synergies there to explore. Great concept and initial execution, but where's the team?! Surely you're not doing this all on your own. Please let me know if I can be of service - I have 10 years experience in the developing world (Africa, India, and Central America).
@alanaut24 Alan: worry not! We do have a team! Shaffi is definitely the CEO and visionary, but he's built a strong product team and brought in many highly talented people. (to see a non-exhaustive list of team members: go to www.MUrgency.com and scroll down to the team section.) Shaffi has also built partnerships with some of the world's largest emergency response companies such as Envision and Falck. In addition, we are a UNDP Business Call to Action enterprise and partnered with the World Economic Forum. let's definitely connect. Can you email me at firstname.lastname@example.com?
@alanaut24 Alan, will check out relief watch. We have a full fledged rock star team spread between SF, Seattle, NY, Dubai, Mumbai and Cochin. Will connect back with you soon. Pls do connect with Sam Hall to explore possibilities.

She is one of the newest ferries in the Washington State Ferry system, launched just over a year ago. Based on a design from back east but built locally, her class has earned the nick-name Eileen (I-Lean) due to the unusual non-symmetrical design resulting in a built in 1 degree list. Loading takes care of that.
We would not normally see this ferry here in the islands, but last Friday Yakima had some unexpected issues and was suddenly taken out of service. Evergreen State (one of the oldest ferries in the service) was shifted over to cover for Yakima and Chetzemoka was moved up to take Evergreen's inter-island route.
For those who are interested, here is the 'official' Washington State site: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/ferries/vesselwatch/VesselDetail.aspx?vessel_id=65
And here is a great site with even more info!: http://www.evergreenfleet.com/Chetzemoka--2010.html
We have been anxious to take a ride on Chetzemoka, and on Tuesday, Al's regular work phone call closed up just in time for us to throw some snacks in the backpack and hotfoot it to the ferry dock. The attendants asked as we boarded "Orcas? Shaw? Lopez?" and we said "Inter-island! We want to take a tour!" Their reply -- "You aren't the only ones!"
|Actual bike racks, instead of a rope at the wall.
|The obligatory puzzle. Though Al does not like the smaller tables!
|We have a literal front row seat as we pull out of Friday Harbor.
|Turtleback Mountain on Orcas Island is peeking over Shaw.
|Pulling up to Orcas Landing
|Into the sun at Shaw!
|Orcas on the left, Mt. Baker through Obstruction Pass, Eagle Cliff on Cypress Island is behind Obstruction Island, Blakely Island on the right.
|Ferry Landing at Lopez Island
|It's not too windy here, at the moment...
|Yes, we knew it would be the sunset cruise. Mmmmm, romantic.
|Back home to Friday Harbor.

Expenses, Reimbursements and Transfers
Hello! Pretty new to Mint and loving it so far :-) Just a few things I am running into with my current setup:
1: For the company I work for we do a lot of Expenses out of our own pocket and then the company reimburses us via a deposit some days later. What is the best way to mark these expenses that'll get covered by the company and how do I handle the reimbursement deposits to keep things nice and tidy?
2: Recently I did a lot of money moving to get setup with a new bank which involved transferring money from savings to checking, withdrawing that cash, and then depositing the cash into a new bank account. Both are connected in Mint, but it's showing these withdraws as expenses and there's a lot of red :-) How could I link all this money correctly so it looks like I never spent any?
Thanks for the help in advance!

The Surprise Item
It was a nice and warm morning, when I was reading the Count Daily and came across an advertisement that said that there was going to be a garage sale in my area. I quickly wrote down the address and got ready to leave the house. For some odd reason, on my way there, I got this strange feeling, it felt as if my stomach had butterflies. But I chose to ignore the feeling and continued to the sale.
Once there I began to walk around the yard, viewing the many items this person wanted to get rid of. After about twenty minutes, a beautifully carved urn caught my eye. It was shaped like a cube and was made out of dark mahogany wood. On it was a beautifully carved mermaid with long flowing hair and seaweed tangled around its body. Upon examining it, I thought that it would look very lovely on my living room bookcase.
I then took the urn and found the person hosting the sale. He was an old man, probably in his late sixties, had greying hair, dark skin, of average height and looked very friendly.
"I see you have come to buy this." He said a little too cheerfully. The butterflies in my stomach that were previously ignored came back but worse.
"Yes," I replied, trying to keep my voice as even as possible to not give away my nervousness and second thoughts about coming here.
"That will be $50." He said a bit too quickly. Seeing the surprised look on my face, he began to tell me about the urn,
"It was a useless gift from my mother," he said "although I have no use for it, I accepted it because I did not want to feel guilty and know I have no need for it anymore."
Believing his story, I happily bought the urn and proceeded on my way home.
Once home, I went to the kitchen sink to wash of the urn since it had a bit of dust on it. Upon opening it I was shocked as to what I found. Inside the urn where someone's ashes. I immediately closed it and went back to the place of the sale. Fortunately, it was still going on and the man spotted me looking for him.
"You're back!" he said surprised.
"Yes, I came to ask you about this." I said while showing him the urn.
"What about it?" he asked. I then told him about the ashes I found in it when at home.
"Oh! I'm so sorry," he apologised, "I'll give you a refund and you can have anything you want for free."
Accepting his apology, I took the refund and started looking at the flower vases.
"I'm so sorry," he said again, "I forgot that my sister put the ashes of our brother in it. I'm so very sorry." Taking into consideration the man's age, I simply brushed it off.
"It's fine. It was a simple mistake." I kindly said.
After picking out a vase, I left the garage sale once again. This time making sure that what I got was empty.Hits: 1758

Over 75% of the defunct L.A. Noire studio's debt is owed in unpaid wages and bonuses.
Following months of allegations of employee mistreatment and bad management (from publisher Rockstar, no less), the size of L.A. Noire developer Team Bondi's debts forced the ailing studio into liquidation earlier this week. Now an analysis of the papers filed during its liquidation has revealed that most of the company's debt - over 75% - is owed not to corporate creditors, but rather to former employees.
According to Edge, papers filed to the Australian Securities and Investment Commission reveal that Team Bondi's total outstanding debt comes to AU$1,425,156.78 ($1,402,265.97), of which $1,074,283.28 is owed to former employees in unpaid wages and bonuses. The studio's former boss, Brendan McNamara, took the biggest single hit; he alone is owed $102,495.16. Three of his top colleagues, all of whom disputed claims of horrendous working conditions in the run-up to development milestones, are also owed between $99,155.21 and $19,120.17.
On the corporate side, Depth Analysis, a company which is owned by McNamara and was used to develop L.A. Noire's revolutionary facial animations, is owed a total of $145,795.83. Bogus Films, the casting agency run from the same address as Team Bondi, is owed $24,781.75. Team Bondi's accountants are owed a total of $54,427.01.
Although L.A. Noire sold reasonably well and shipped over 4 million copies worldwide, its development was seriously hampered by bad management and employee dissatisfaction. An investigation into Team Bondi's working practices undertaken by the International Game Developers Association (IGDA) will hopefully put to rest the arguments over working conditions - but in the meantime, former employees will be left wondering how long it'll take for their unpaid wages to be fulfilled by what's left of Team Bondi's assets.

AfintaPart, a Midas Group-owned truck parts distributor that supplies genuine parts from OE and quality guaranteed replacement parts for light and medium commercial vehicles, has donated 150 booster car seats to the Wheel Well store in Brightwater Commons Shopping Centre, Randburg, highlighting the ever-increasing need for all spheres of civil society and business, regardless of size and influence, to do everything they can around road safety-related issues.
Releasing road death statistics in January, shortly after the high-season festive period, Transport Minister, Dipuo Peters reported that 1,376 people were killed over the festive season alone, a staggering number when considering that South Africa's road deaths rank twice as high as developed countries like North America and Australia.
"What many people don't realise is that the economic cost of road fatalities over an extended period is far more of a burden than we care to think," says Director of AfintaPart, Wayne Lodder. With the figure being an estimated R307-billion each year, this is the same if not marginally more than what Transnet has budgeted for its seven-year infrastructure development programme. Resultant life-long disabilities and the appropriate need for medical care after road accidents are factors that many do not realise must be accounted for.
Any of side effects after the use of Cialis Online I did not experience at all.
Roads are purported to be the single biggest killer of young people over the age of 10 and locally three children under the age of 15 die each day on our roads. There is a critical need for booster car seats to be made available wherever possible. They have been scientifically proven to reduce the need for canadian pharmacies or hospitalisation by 60%, by holding children in position during a crash, which would otherwise see a passenger being thrown into the instrument panel, windscreen or other parts of a car.
"We are pleased to have played a role in making road trips safer, especially for children," added Mr. Lodder.

Tranmere Rovers Sponsor Interview: Simon Sloan
Tell us a little about yourself
Originally from East Anglia, I moved to the North West in 2004 and worked in local businesses as an IT Manager before joining with a friend who was setting up a technical support division of his education consultancy. I now manage the company's operations and specialise in Outside work I am a member of Heswall Round Table – Tranmere fans and local residents may know of this charitable group as we run the annual Prenton Park fireworks display. I also play guitar, like to scuba dive whenever I get the opportunity and spend a fair amount of my time watching Tranmere home and away.
Tell us about your business
Hi-impact started as an education consultancy and we now provide pupil and staff training, IT support, kit sales and services to more than 50% of Wirral schools (plus many more nationally, and even internationally). Our educational consultants also deliver sports science workshops in Wirral schools alongside Tranmere players, which is something our schools absolutely love. Away from education, our media department creates promotional digital marketing material for businesses all around the world – including virtual tours, promo films, photography, graphic design and web services. We are award winning for our creativity and have enjoyed many "firsts" in our partnerships with Tranmere – namely in setting up and running the Junior Media Team which is a scheme for training young supporters in sports media skills – never before seen at any club, and also in creating a true virtual retail environment for the club shop, meaning fans can walk around the shop on their computer as if there in person, even selecting items off the shelf and purchasing right there and then – again, something no-one else had ever done before. This is why we love working with Tranmere, the people are always eager to jump on board with our ideas and show themselves and the Club in a forward-thinking, progressive light.
Are you a Tranmere fan?
Tranmere is my adopted team since moving to this area. I'm a Tottenham fan originally, but since taking my son to some Tranmere games a few years ago I found myself sucked into the roller coaster ride that is supporting Tranmere! Our MD, Alan, has been a fan since he was a young child and he loves the fact that we now work alongside the Club he has always supported. I now attend every home game and get to several away games each season, and I'm loving that the roller coaster is finally moving in an upward direction…
Who is you favourite player?
Obviously Nors has become a bit of a legend in his own lifetime and Steeeeeve is always a tremendous presence on the pitch, but I am really loving watching Ollie Banks and Manny Monthe this season.
What has been your favourite Tranmere moment since being a sponsor?
Is it too obvious to say last May's Wembley win? Aside from that incredible day out, I'd have to say following the Barrow comeback a couple of seasons ago on twitter was one of the most up-and-down, surreal moments I've had supporting football – I went from "I'm done", to hysteria in the space of a few minutes and I wasn't even there! As a sponsor, it's always great to choose the Man of the Match, and to have them come up for a chat after the game, although it does mean we have to pay attention on the game and not just enjoy the fantastic services that the hospitality team provides!
What does being a Tranmere sponsor mean to you?
We are incredibly proud to have always been a Wirral business and our links to the community and other local businesses are really important to us. Being actively involved in working with junior Tranmere supporters fits in really nicely with our educational aims and creating media content for the Club helps us grow our brand recognition as well as giving us the opportunity to feel part of the Club's development and progression. We know the people behind the scenes and can confirm that it's a small group of very key people who keep it alive and functioning on a day to day basis. We have a true partnership with these key people – especially with our Junior Media Team involvement – and being part of it in this way feels much more special than just putting our name to a pitch side hoarding or programme advert.
If you weren't in the field you were in, what would you want to do?
Ok,assuming that I'd gone down very different routes and trained in completely different things, I'd have loved to have been involved in heritage – perhaps Egyptology or something else focused on ancient history. One of my favourite parts of our media operations at hi-impact is when we get to film in museums, castles or war tunnels etc.. and I can indulge that passion somewhat.
What is the best thing you have achieved in your career
I'm really proud to have been a part of developing our technical support division when we introduced that and seeing it become the region's largest provider. I was also behind some of our bigger educational "wow" projects, such as sending science experiments and cameras to the edge of space on weather balloons and faking alien crash landings in playgrounds to inspire creative writing, which was really exciting! In media terms, getting to see our client list grow from a couple of local schools to include people like Tommy Hilfiger, Sunseeker Yachts, Liverpool FC, Everton FC, Manchester Utd, Twickenham Stadium, The Roman Baths (and Tranmere, of course!) has been phenomenal.

Sincerity Alert! I May Not Be Your Best Option.
Just what are the advantages of selling your residence for cash? As with whatever you'll read or learn through me, I'm mosting likely to be totally honest with you. Marketing your home to me might not be your ideal alternative. Visit his website at http://sellmyhousefastlouisvilleky.com to find out more details for a free cash offer on your home.

Time Is Money.
Nevertheless, if you don't satisfy the needs over as well as desire or should offer your house quickly, there are many advantages to having me buy your house. Given that your time is useful, I'll start with one of the most essential benefits first. Cash buyers get your residence quick! Do not take too lightly the worth of this.
We've all heard that time is money, and also it couldn't be any more real than in reality. Not even calculating in the real worth of your personal time that gets consumed attempting to sell a home, simply possessing a residential property is very pricey. The insurance policy, taxes, energies, and also upkeep can quickly eat up thousands as well as hundreds of dollars over the lots of months it requires to market a home the conventional method. All that money could remain in your pocket very soon after you call me.
Stay clear of Frustrations
I seriously thought about making preventing frustrations the top benefit, yet a quick sale is just also crucial. Given that I might literally write dozens of short articles headings marketing a house could be aggravating, I'll summarize one of the most typical ones in a checklist.
In no order of priority, simply a few of the manner ins which selling a residence could be discouraging are; repairing your residence, staging your residence, maintaining your house in show prepared condition, having to leave your residence on brief notice for a showing, 18 page Colorado realty agreements, particular customers, window shoppers, snoopy next-door neighbors, spending for a home you don't reside in, fretting about when or if your house will offer, bargaining with customers, customers revoking agreements after you've moved out, realtors payments, as well as mainly simply the uncertainty of all of it.
Cash money is King.

The most you might possibly want to win after offering a $200,000 via a real estate agent is around $182,000, and that's if you really did not need to do any repair services and also sold for full cost. Do the mathematics, 6% realtor commissions, as well as 3% closing prices, amount to $18,000! More likely you'll have a couple of thousand in repairs as well as have to discuss down an average of 5% in rate decreases as well as paying the customers shutting costs. This implies you'll likely just obtain around $170,000 money for your $200,000 house. As I said, Follow the clever tips for selling a home in a slow market as "Cash is King", so obtaining a fast cash money deal from me is very likely your finest choice.
