Press Release
HEADLINE AGENCY (Ireland only)
RELISH - Vicar St, Dublin / Saturday May 5th 2018
RELISH - New Album / April 27th 2018
Tickets from Ticketmaster, September 29th at €30 (incl booking fee)
New album in ticket price
Having performed at Vicar St as part of Sinead O'Connor's band (as guitarist and drummer respectively) in support of her No1 album "I'm not Bossy, I'm The Boss" Kenny and Carl felt the illustrious venue was finally calling them for a full RELISH show to mark the release of the new RELISH album on April 27th 2018.
After co-writing and performing the soundtrack for Oscar winning director John Carney's latest Hollywood movie "Sing Street" (nominated for a Golden Globe in 2017), and touring the world as part of Sinead O'Connor's band, (producing & performing her track for the Blind Willie Johnson Tribute album "God Don't Never Change"), Kenny and Carl finally returned to the stage in support of their re-release of 'Wildflowers' and 'Karma Calling' through a new deal with Universal Music, and made a big impact with the new track that accompanied it "Got It Made".
Though not officially released as a stand-alone single it reached the top 20 twenty of the Irish airplay charts.
As a 3 piece over the course of 3 albums and various hit singles over the last 15 years, brothers Kenny and Carl Papenfus, the nucleus and song-writing force of platinum selling band RELISH, came back as a duo though presenting a strong 5 piece line up for their immensely popular live shows; selling out Whelans (Dublin) at their tentatively planned Irish tour in late 2015.
"We thought we'd be best placed to keep the atmosphere hot, sweaty in more intimate settings before stepping it up a gear for bigger shows and it seemed to work", said drummer Carl.
And of their new format:
'There have been a number of bands over the years importantly "The White Stripes" and "The Black Keys" that reminded us of our early years, before we'd even played with other musicians, when Ken and I would simply jam out in our rehearsal room. It's something we always continued to do but those bands helped us realise this as a possibility for us too. We may not be tied to the duo format but the spirit remains the same.'
RELISH are set to perform at this year's Java Jazz International Music Festival in Jakarta, the biggest festival in southeast Asia, among other Asian and European live appearances in the Summer of 2018.
Having had pop hits and rock hits RELISH have always blurred the lines between genres, but with success from Asia to the UK and supporting bands as diverse as U2, At The Drive In and Kelis, and admirers ranging from Brian May, to Sinead O'Connor, to Paul Weller, to U2, RELISH have created their own place to exist, breaking down musical barriers with every new release.
Previous releases saw RELISH work with such acclaimed producers as John Leckie (Radiohead/The Stone Roses) and Al Clay (Stereophonics/The Pixies). Highlights have seen 4 chart-topping Irish singles, No1 in the Japanese airplay charts and even the unlikely request from Westlife to cover their single 'Rainbow Zephyr' reworked as 'Hey Whatever' which was a UK Top 5 and international hit. Past RELISH releases have proven gold and platinum selling albums.
Though external projects outside of RELISH have proved interesting, from playing lead guitar with Paul Weller to performing the lead role in Julian Joseph's jazz opera "Tristan & Isolde" (culminating in a live performance at London's Royal Opera House), to creating a boutique distribution, marketing and record label (Zephyr Sounds) Kenny expressed that 'Working with great music and the finest musicians has always been our raison d'etre, and I think that's what keeps our love of music alive, in whatever form be that RELISH or whatever else, BUT RELISH, as in Carl and I working together as a team, has always been our greatest love'

In case tariffs, quotas and exchange controls fail to achieve equilibrium in balance of payments, a country might be compelled to adjust its exchange rate. An upward adjustment is called revaluation and may be resorted to by a country having persistent balance of payments surplus. A download adjustment is called devaluation and is often resorted to by countries suffering from deficit in their balance of payments. As a deficit in balance of payments creates serious problems, devaluation is frequently resorted to and we will deal with devaluation in detail.
It means a reduction in the exchange value of the domestic currency of any country. For example, before 1966, one rupee was worth 21 US cents; in 1966, its value was reduced to 13.33 US cents.
When maintenance of domestic currency at an overvalued rate becomes difficult and the trade gap assumes threatening proportions in spite of exchange control, a country may be forced to devalue its currency. As the value of the domestic currency is considered to be a matter of prestige for the Government, attempts are made to avoid or postpone devaluation as far as possible.
Devaluation makes a country's exports cheaper for foreigners. Hence its exports tend to increase. For example, a shirt worth Rs. 10 in India was worth $2.10 before the 1966 rupee devaluation. After devaluation, it cost only $1.33. Hence the demand for Indian shorts was expected to increase in the USA. On the other hand, imports became costly to the Indian consumers. Hence Indian imports tended to decline. For example, goods worth $1,000 were equivalent of Rs. 4,762 before 1966. After devaluation, they cost Rs. 7,500. Hence foreign goods became more costly and less attractive.
Exchange controls import quotas, tariffs etc are all selective measures but devaluation is a general measure. It affects buyers and sellers of all goods and services entering into the international trade of a country. To a country which depends heavily on imports, a heavy devaluation will bring serious hardships in the form of a substantial increase in the cost of imported items which will inflate the cost of living. In a country with large foreign debts, it may involve an excessive burden of interest charges. Hence, before deciding to devalue, all pros and cons must be fully examined.
Efficacy of Devaluation:
The efficacy of devaluation towards the restoration of balance of payments equilibrium is, however, dependent on many factors. Much will depend upon the structure of the country's internal economic conditions e.g. capacity to produce more. The most important variables are, however, the values of the export and import elasticity's of the devaluing country.
Increase in Exports: The increase in the volume of exports due to their lower foreign process consequent on devaluation must be such that it more than offsets the loss in foreign exchange earnings due to lower per unit realization. This can be so when the foreign demand for devaluing country's exports is relatively elastic i.e. the elasticity of import demand for the products of the devaluing country is more than unity. Then only foreign expenditure on devaluing country's exports will increase as their prices fall. This elasticity will be higher if the devaluing country's exports have a high degree of substitutability. Then foreign buyers will spend more on devaluing country's exports as these can be substituted for goods supplied by other countries which have not devalued and therefore are relatively costly. The value of this elasticity will still be higher if the share of the devaluing country in the export markets is low. In order to derive the maximum advantage out of devaluation, it must be ensured that additional production will be generated to meet the additional foreign demand. This will happen only when the domestic elasticity of supply is high. This will moderate the rise in home prices, maximize the fall in foreign process and call the impact of the favorable demand fully into play.
If the elasticity of foreign demand or the domestic supply is lower hand unity, the increase in devaluing country's exports will not be sufficient to offset the decline in foreign earnings due to devaluation. The balance of payments deficit will be greater than before.
In general, a nation which turns out a large number of products that are sold in large number of markets is more likely to experience elastic demand conditions than a nation which sells a relatively small number of products in only a few markets. The greater the number of products apparently the better are the chances of increasing export receipts.
Decline in Imports: The decline in the volume of imports due to their high prices must be such that it more than offsets the increase in foreign exchange expenditure due to the increase in per unit price. This can be so when the domestic demand for imports are relatively elastic i.e. more than unity.

Application – The Cover Letter
Application – The Cover Letter. Afford now our service and we write and design you a successful cover letter. Pay conveniently by bank transfer or via PayPal. Take advantage of our unique applications! Because with our service your chances for an invitation or an interview increase by a multiple! What we need from you is a passport photo and an indication of what kind of job you want to apply, or the vacancy for which we are to submit the application. Write to us which schools you have visited, what your personal strengths are and where you've worked, and we will create your own personal cover letter.
Why the design of an application is so important!
After a few moments the employer has to make a final decision on a candidate. Here, the first visual impression of the resume is considerable. Only when the applicant has the right personality in addition to professional qualifications he can convey with his resume. Hard skills alone are not enough. Although work experience, education and other skills are of course important. Character and individual personality can be hardly visible on a piece of paper. For the vast majority of employers personality and social skills, however, are at least as valuable. These can now target visually presented with the design. For 90% of employers formal criteria are as important as technical skills. But one at first glance already inferior completed application is still the quickest way to defeat the really good chances of getting the job. A trained HR manager can see very quickly in the mass of applications and CVs who is willing to invest a lot of time and commitment and who sent his applications by copying and pasting to multiple companies. Those who spend less time will be relatively quickly rewarded with the cencellation. Professionally designed applications and CVs cut in studies and A / B tests above average better than the 0815 applications that we know from school yet. Applicants with an optimized outer form are accurate, natural, responsive, and more resilient to the point total estimated as more appropriate. Thus, an aspirant for the job from all sides can present optimal for the body. CV pattern for every profession to content the right design in the application, desired characteristics are highlighted by the design of the application documents. Brands and companies such as Mercedes, Porsche and Audi show how to do it right. They negotiate with the design that their products are valuable and show it at the price tag. Of course we also want to present with our service that our customer is more valuable to his potential employer. Bewerbung7 has all texts, desertions & studies evaluated on design effects to transport this advantageous effect in the application. So your personal strengths through the exterior design of the application and curriculum vitae are targeted so that your competitors look old to you and your earnings prospects rise by an en masse.
We will create your professionell cover letter
The first impression of the application is created at the first sight of your documents. Who does not convince here does not even get the chance that his experience and knowledge stations will be read. After all, who can not make it can write a professional application specifying be good enough for a job. Even if the letter of candidature has nothing to do with the job or the knowledge that you need for this, because it shows some character properties, such as Motivation, quality awareness and strive for perfection. A professionally created resume can be used again and again and makes the writing of the application not only easier, but also causes to leave a positive first impression.
The problem for many candidates is that you present yourself very similar and do not make it out of the gray mass of applications stand out. Of course it's hard when all applicants use the textbook applications with typical formulations. Most applicants therefore present themselves very similar: A classic curriculum vitae with cover letter, which is written by the DIN 5008 standard, although fulfilled all the formalities of a German proposal, but leaves no emotions at a human resource managers – the result – will be forgotten again quickly , More modern companies consider these rigid rules, however, now as yesterday's and old-fashioned therefore explore HR much more innovative candidate to bring the apparently above average computer skills. Therefore, a modern application received exactly the right signals. When choosing the application design, it is important that the writing is clear and easy to read. Ideally, the layout of the application fits the job and the company in which you are applying. Each candidate should be aware of the effect his his application documents. No design can hide in a letter about the lack of skills, but it may be a candidate of benefit to stand out from the crowd and more to show from its peculiarities.
If you particularly appeals to one of the designs in the pictures, then we read also that it likes the designs you and what color you would have like to.
Check out our other offers. e.g. 50 Bewerbungsmappen with your photo and your name.

Last March, in an effort to stem the ever increasing tide of illegal drug commerce, Mexican police destroyed thirty shrines to Jesús Malverde, the so-called "Narco-Saint." As of yet the definitive picture of Malverde hasn't really emerged, but we do know that he was either a construction or railway worker before turning to a life of banditry, where, obviously, he did the work of god. He was either hanged from a tree that subsequently died, or shot by a friend for cash and amnesty.
Malverde is seen as a "steal from the rich, give to the poor" type, which makes him pretty popular with the poor, and rather less so with the rich. Visitors to his shrines leave shrimp in formaldehyde-filled bottles, in case their saint should get hungry or need to preserve some snake eggs, candles in the event the electricity in heaven ever goes out, pictures of people they think need the help of a Saint of Banditry, or small plaques telling about miracles Malverde has performed for them. (He is apparently a bit of a trained seal as far as the miracles go.)
There's even a Malverde beer now, if you want to drink the saint. No report on whether it's any good or not. One bright spot in Saint Malverde's future though is that the Catholic Church does not accept him as an official saint, which gives him a bit more street cred. The church has a very strict admittance policy regarding official saints, involving proof of a holy and heroic life and either martyrdom or at least one miracle after death. (Proof first… then faith.) They do admit to not having the exhaustive list, however.
Some saints that did make the cut: Erasmus, saint of abdominal pains, Francis, saint of nice animals, Vitus, saint of mean animals, Joseph, saint of astronauts, Matthew, saint of bankers, (where the hell has this guy been lately?) George, saint of Boy Scouts, Claire, saint of television everywhere except Peru, where it's Martin, Apollonia, saint of toothaches, Eligius, saint of people who collect medals and those who work at gas stations, Agnes, saint of Girl Scouts, Barbara, saint of gunners, and literally hundreds more.
When I die I want to be the saint of inappropriate comments, pictures of boobies, and butt jokes.

Young People are a revolutionary force and have been at the forefront of many important social movements. Youth are playing a vital role in the climate movement today. The lack of respect for young people's thinking and leadership abilities can mean that the important abilities we have to offer are underutilized. We can internalize the lack of respect and fail to take ourselves seriously, despite our many accomplishments. Racism also interferes in our building strong relationships.
In this workshop, we will communicate our understandings of young people's oppression and internalized oppression, our vision for young leadership in the climate movement and how allies can support us. We will also share tools for addressing racism that we can use in our relationships and movements and learn the approaches used by Sustaining All Life and United to End Racism to heal from the damage of oppression, increase our effectiveness in the climate justice movement, and prevent burnout.
This event is part of the Youth and Climate Activism program of Climate Week NYC.

At the ceremony was Mayor Dave Earling, past Edmonds' Mayors Gary Haakenson and Barb Fahey, City staff, Edmonds Sister City Commissioners, past Commissioners and volunteers and members of the community. Also at the ceremony was a delegation from Edmonds' Sister City of Hekinan, Japan, which included Hekinan Mayor Masanobu Negita, Hekinan City Council Chairman Hiroshi Kutsuna, Hekinan Sister City Association President Isao Kimbara and Vice President Yoshitsugu Osada, along with Hekinan staff, volunteers and community members.
The Hekinan delegation was in Edmonds to celebrate the 30 year Sister City relationship between Edmonds and Hekinan. It's been a very rich and rewarding relationship. Many bonds have been created between the people of Edmonds and Hekinan over the past 30 years… many of those bonds include Keiko.
Keiko was one of a delegation of three from Hekinan who traveled to Edmonds in the early 80's to assess the possibility of Hekinan and Edmonds forming a Sister City relationship. After visiting Edmonds and two other cities on the West Coast, it was clear to the delegation that Edmonds was the best fit for Hekinan; and so the relationship was formed. Over the next 30 years Keiko provided the driving force behind this program. Sadly, Keiko died suddenly only a week before the Edmonds delegation arrived in Hekinan last April to celebrate this 30 year friendship.
The City of Edmonds and the Edmonds Sister City Commission wanted to honor the memory of this amazing and special woman and so the bench was placed, at Centennial Plaza, within view of other significant items of our 30 year Sister City friendship with Hekinan.
If you haven't seen the bench, or read the plaque, or sat for a spell, we encourage you to do so, and while you are there please take a few moments to recognize Edmonds' very special friend – Keiko Sakakibara.

No stranger to the event, this past March The President and the first lady visited Austin, Texas, where they addressed the festival on a number of topics including civic engagement, creative thinking, entrepreneurship, and education. The event at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in October promises to celebrate "that spirit of innovation." The White House website is seeking nominations for the the official line-up.

Michelle Obama delivered the keynote address at SXSW Music, promoting her "Let Girls Learn" initiative. Queen Latifah served as moderator on the keynote panel, which also included Missy Elliott, Diane Warren, and actress Sophia Bush.

Disclaimer : If you are someone who are easily grossed out or uncomfortable with the topic of woman reproductive system and chunks of blood and menstruation, then this blog post is not for you.
Hello, lovelies~ I know, I know. I am SO late in the game with these menstrual cups, huh? It takes me that long to join the cup users.
Nobody says that.
Anyway, I am going to share with you the menstrual cup that I used during my last period, which is Organicup. Since I have only used this brand, I can't really tell which one is more comfy or less firm or whatnot, but maybe in the future, I will.
Who knows.
Alright, so what is a menstrual cup, I hear you asking from a distance. Well, my fellow first-time cup users, it's basically a cup that you insert to your vagina to collect the blood
Before using it ( at the beginning of the menstruation cycle), I boil the cup for 5 minutes. Make sure that the water is already boiling before you put the cup in so the cup won't touch the sides of the pan. Afterward, just make sure it's cooled before removing it from the pan. Wash your hands and the cup before insertion.
The morning of the first day using it was surprisingly pleasant and easy. I used a C cup fold, but it wouldn't go in easily, so I switched to the punch down fold. It went in way easier because of the smaller diameter. Once it's inside and a little adjusting, I couldn't really feel the stem.
As a reference, I work at an office from 9 to 5 mostly sitting, maybe walking up and down the stairs a few times to get my papers from the printer. I thought I was gonna have spots when I check after 12 hours, but nope. My pants are clean as a whistle!
Getting it out is easier than inserting it because it's just a slight pull at the stem, pinching the base and pulling it out gently. I never thought I'd be satisfied to see the 'red juice' collected inside the cup. My first day has a quarter of the blood collected.
Now, I have a short temper that is a bad quality when combined with elevating hormones that makes me go into mood swings with just a snap. When I was gonna change the night of the first day, I had a hard time making the cup unfold. It didn't occur to me that I can just simply TURN the cup at the base to make it a round shape, hence sealing the deal.
but I didn't think about that
G even offered to help since he said he would have a better sight at the 'target'. I politely declined in tears and hysterics. I was thinking of how I have failed as a medical doctor, not being able to place this medical device inside of me successfully. I started to think about how my family would be disappointed in (not that they're proud, to begin with) me because of my failure. I started to feel like a failure. Oh my, it was just nasty to look at. Geez...
Yup. That's what my hormones + short temper does to me during my period.
I tried again for the last time before going to bed, but no luck. The cup is still left there unfolded and I'm still bawling my eyes out because of the failure. G consoled me and reminded me to take deep breaths and that this isn't the end of the world. If it wasn't for him, I would probably be in the middle of an anxiety attack. So, I took the cup out, used my sanitary pad and cried myself to sleep.
The second day was a lot better since I did turn the cup at the base once it's already inside. There were a few leaks because I inserted the cup way too deep that it probably slanted to the side. It still caught a few milliliters of blood, so that was good.
The third and fourth day went smoothly because there was less blood than the day before. I already got the hang of inserting the cup and how deep it should be. My cue was inserting it until my index finger was about a quarter inserted. I then let go and it usually unfolds automatically. Right after my period ended I boil the cup for 5 minutes and store it in the cloth bag.
I enjoyed using it to the point that I wanna say...
SANITARY PAD WHO?and
also ...
I like that I can't feel anything while using the cup. There is no need to change pads every few hours. I don't have irritation because of the friction between my skin and the sanitary pads. There is also the financial and environmental effect of using menstrual cups. Sure it costs a lot in the beginning, but for the convenience and less (much less) waste piling up at the landfill, this is a worth to buy product for me.
How about you? Have you tried or thinking of trying a menstrual cup? Let me know in the comments below. I think I'm gonna do a separate post on tips for using a menstrual cup. This post is already too long I don't even know if you made it here. Until then, I'll see you later~

Rated 4 out of 5 by niknaksnacks from I love the color payoff but you have to put on 3-5 coats. It was kind of drying(it was on sale so it may be been going old lol) but that's nothing a little lip gloss cant fix. It last all day long. I mean I ate food, drank milkshakes and water all day&it was still there. The only way it came off is w/a makeup wipe. Too bad I can't find it again....

Rated 3 out of 5 by tonilynnr from First time user and thought it was very affordable. I was not impressed with brush that is used to apply product just did not glide on but felt i was painting. the packaging is very colorful hence the lip floss but comes in a good container easy for holding. Would purchase again but darker color

Rated 2 out of 5 by ambriaf from I don't know if my lips too black or it's the product, but the product really doesn't show up for me. I loved the color when I saw from the outside of the bottle. I probably won't buy it again probably buy the same brand but different line of gloss.
Date published: 2018-05-20
Rated 4 out of 5 by stratusfaction_guaranteed from This lip gloss looks amazing! This lip gloss is a bit sticky, but it is less sticky than many other products. When you remove it, some glitter does get left behind and it does get on my chin. It's still a great product at an affordable price.
Date published: 2019-06-21
Rated 5 out of 5 by jessicarb9e3 from I didn't post a picture in the lip gloss. But, this lip gloss can stay on for over 5 hours. The holographic effect is such a perfect finishing touch when you have a full face of makeup. I love the way it pops with my skin and highlight.

We've got plans this evening and it's unlikely we'd get a home practice in, so I took my yoga to the gym today and did my favorite flexibility practice there. In hindsight, I should've picked something a little more complicated since I was working alone. Oh well, it was a plenty nice way to spend my gym time!
Today's struggle is how (or if) to respond to people in my life that hold harmful anti-science views, and if that can be done from a place of caring rather than anger.
My cousin-in-law is highly involved in some essential oil pyramid scheme, and every facebook post and family event is full of talking about how great they all are. Usually I try to ignore it, since it's mostly nice-smelling placebo effect, but her claims that the oils will do stuff like cure cancer drives me nuts. And it's a waste of money for the people who buy them!
At the end of the day I really don't want to be confrontational and call it snake oil to her face, but I wish folks would be do a little more research before believing the miraculous claims.

Weekday Schedule: 12 To 15 October 2009
It's been a struggle to fill the mid-week sessions over the past few weeks. We usually get to 8 or 9, then the last place or two becomes very difficult to fill, even after sending out lots of SMSes. Even when we get to 10, there have frequently been late withdrawals, which again, takes too much time and effort to fill.
Although I've ended up playing more than I would like to, I'm not going to slip into the role of filler when 1 or 2 places remain available.
Lots of us tied up at work, injured, away, or making other plans, or just worn out from over-extending ourselves.
So just two routine sessions next week:
- Tuesday, 13 October 2009, 8.50 pm to 10.00 pm, at The Cage, Kallang.
- Thursday, 15 October 2009, 8.50 pm to 10.00 pm, at The Cage, Kallang.
As always, confirmations and any withdrawals below please. For any withdrawals on the day of the session itself, please SMS me in addition to commenting on the blog.
Although the aim is to have 10 players per session, sessions at The Cage will go on as a 4-a-side even if we only have 8 players. In the event of a 4-a-side, I leave it to those playing to decide whether to play off the side walls as usual, or to the side lines to pace the game better, although I strongly suggest the latter.
For Wednesday night at Sports Planet, I will try to arrange a representative game instead of a routine session. Details in tomorrow's OPSAGE post.
As Monday night's FAFI game is already full, I will also try to arrange another representative game at The Cage. Details in tomorrow's OPSAGE post as well.

Embroidery Set-Up - Correct Size?
You've ordered custom embroidered organic polo shirts. Your embroiderer emailed your embroidery set-up for your approval. You're looking at your set-up and wondering about the size. Why does your embroidery look so big? If you are viewing a file that doesn't include a size reference scale then you don't know the actual size of the embroidery. You need to ask for your logo's measurements. Once you have the dimensions, transfer these to a piece of paper and use that to judge the size. Keep in mind that embroidered logos should be readable from a three foot distance. If you're still not sure of the size, ask you embroiderer to send an embroidered sample. This may delay your order but you'll be confident that your logo is the correct size.

AVG Costs For Tennis Court Construction
Tennis Court Construction Mooresville, NC Average Costs
Before the Mooresville tennis court construction begins, the experts from Clever Cost Guides will come and assess your compound. This makes it easier for them to know whether there is enough space for the court in the first place. Another point that they have to consider is whether you will have an indoors or an outdoor court.
The different factors that determine the kind of court you want will also determine the overall cost of getting the court in your compound. When you have this project carried out by professionals from Clever Cost Guides, there is a good chance that you will never have to spend more than you should, so give it some thought.
Costs for Tennis Court Construction in Mooresville, NC
Looking at national averages and data can help a homeowner get a general idea of the cost of tennis court construction in Mooresville, but it will not get them an exact number. Mooresville tennis court construction costs will be affected due to labor rates, material costs, and any permits or licenses required. With that in mind figuring out a local average cost for tennis court construction in Mooresville is highly recommended before starting such a project.
In 2020 our data concluded that the amount homeowners paid for tennis court construction in the Iredell county ranged from $2,755.00 to $3,021.00.
Estimates for tennis court construction change from state to state and city to city. Below is listed what is usually included and what is usually not included in Mooresville tennis court construction estimates from local professionals.
Mooresville Tennis Court Construction Estimate Breakdown
- Average Mooresville hourly labor costs.
- Material costs ranging from $3.00 to $3.00 per square foot.
- Average miscellaneous costs for other materials and equipment rental in Mooresville.

Mooresville Tennis Court Construction Estimates Usually Don't Account For

- Required permits and building fees enforced by Mooresville law.
- General contractor, if used, fees for this project. These fees usually add another $346.56-$433.20 to Mooresville tennis court construction estimates.
It may be beneficial and strategic to compare the costs from cities surrounding the Mooresville area as well. Homeowners usually compare Mooresville tennis court construction with Tennis Court Construction near Cornelius, NC and Tennis Court Construction around Davidson, NC in order to determine a better price range.

A recent change in a state law regulating the issuance and renewal of driver's licenses could generate thousands of dollars in revenue for Ferndale and could have a big impact for many municipalities throughout the state.
Discussion about Senate Bill 0130 began in the state Legislature last year but it recently gained approval and was signed into law. Essentially, the bill amended the number of unpaid parking tickets a licensed driver may have before the Secretary of State will not renew the license.
The law previously allowed drivers to have up to six unpaid tickets before license renewal would be denied; the amendment lowered that number to three.

Why do you require a marketing funnel for your smallbusiness? Marketing Funnel Explained
You require it to provide clarity and create your sales&marketing strategy purposeful.
We've all heard of sales funnels, but you may not have ever made one.
It's simple.
Here's how.
Think of the shape of an organization.
A promotion funnel is the same–broad at the top and narrow at the base.
At the top, you need plenty of possible clients.
In the base, you need to sift out all those customers that will actually turn into paying clients.
A marketing funnel might help you more easily visualize your sales procedure, outlining all of your precise measures that cause the revenue of your products or services.
You will be surprised by how much drawing out your marketing funnel will help you imagine your marketing enterprise.
A promotion funnel has several levels:
On peak of the funnel, a few clients will instantly drop out because they're not interested in your company.
At the next level, clients have shown some interest.
Maybe they have signed up for an email list or downloaded an account.
It is very important to be certain these customers proceed to the next level of your site.
You also don't need them to linger at this amount –they will need to either commit to the next level, or leave the funnel.
Finally, the customers that commit will typically buy one time for certain, then it is your task to turn them into repeat customers.
Drawing out your advertising and marketing funnels helps you identify problems.
This process saves you time and money as it helps you focus in to the appropriate customers.
So how do you get it done?
Step 1: This step is all about showcasing your company to your leads.
Step 2: Lead these potential clients to your funnel with a non – or – no-cost entry offer.
At this point, the prospect should have very little commitment and spend hardly any time.
A typical strategy is entering a email address to receive a complimentary report.
Step 3: Educate the prospective customer by giving them important information about your product.
They need to comprehend the advantages of your supply.
This not only can help you establish your expertise, but it educates them about the demand for your goods and assists them along in their decision.
Step 4: It is now time to request the sale. Make your deal.
You have already made your case in Step 3, so this step ought to be easy and straightforward.
Step 5: Following the sale, follow with your client, express admiration, and ask for testimonials and referrals.
Once you've established this funnel as a wonderful small business source, refine it to repair process issues you have noticed.
The end result will probably be more prospects turning to clients to cultivate your business.

Rabbi Lyon's Blog – 07_22_2016
Rabbi Lyon's Blog – 07_22_2016
From the desk of Rabbi David Lyon
Nothing replenishes my body and mind like time in the mountains. On a hike with Lisa and friends, I breathe deeply and smell the scents of pine trees and bare earth. As the path dips towards the flowing river, I step into it and feel the brisk cold water run over my bare feet. When the trail ascends higher, we stop to catch our breath in the altitude and eat some energy-rich dark chocolate and almonds. Even a short pause is time enough to look around and find the views that inspire us. We use our phones to capture pictures of the sun cutting through the tall pine and Aspen trees, and we take photos of each other to remember the trek. Talk and laughter accompany us as we make our way to the next fork in the trail. There we decide whether or not to go farther.
On this hike we do go on, and to our delight we happen upon an abandoned rustic farmhouse in the middle of a field of tall grasses. The path to the door is beaten down by many hikers who made their way there before us. To me, being there is like standing in the middle of a painting where only the most perfect colors, materials and textures are used to create a one-of-a-kind pastoral canvas. I take pictures of everything I can and touch with my hands everything that I find. Inside the old farmhouse are rooms that once sheltered a small family. It's hard to believe that the house could have supported them for long. On our way out, I look back over my shoulder to take one more memory of it with me.
Such pastoral scenes, hikes with friends, and natural beauty are healthy distractions. They remove me momentarily from a crowded and endless schedule, let alone the rage that's engulfing the world and filling the daily news. Distractions aren't ploys to escape any of it; but, they do create open spaces for creativity, inspiration and preparation. In Colorado, there are places called "open spaces." By definition, they're not landscaped or outlined by anything but nature, itself. Untouched, raw, and growing unbounded, they can be metaphors for times in our life when unbounded open spaces unleash our human potential. Open spaces can be downtime, even bored time. They can stimulate new ways of thinking about old ideas, develop new interest in familiar tasks, and open new pathways to reach fresh solutions. The benefits accrue to everyone.
The privilege to get away, however, doesn't come to all of us or as often as we need it. When we're fully engaged in our work and areas of responsibility our stress levels rise and even familiar tasks feel urgent. News of terrorist attacks and deadly gunfire make us especially restless and anxious. Ask yourself what events cause you stress and anxiety. When do you feel helpless and out of control? Do you use memories of people and moments to soothe yourself and refocus your perspective? Can you take time off in order to create open space for creative thinking?
As much as I love the mountains and hikes to open spaces, I can't get there often enough. So, between trips to Colorado in summertime, I find relief from schedules and daily news when I welcome Shabbat every Friday night. It's my spiritual "open space" and it's accompanied by quiet activity, reading, resting, and even feeling a little bored sometimes. One of the joys of Shabbat is that it comes every week. Unrelated to the cycle of the moon or the imposition of calendar events, Shabbat is created by God and made holy by God. We are commanded to keep it. Making Shabbat with others widens our open space to include family and friends. It's also the perfect time to recall fond memories with them of summertime.
I'm on my way back from Colorado. I'm bringing back pictures and memories, focus and perspective. And, in the midst of what will become crowded schedules and new demands, I'll look for you. Each week, we'll enter the open space we call Shabbat, and there find rest and renewal on our search for our greatest human potential.

I'm very happy—and grateful—to say that we made it through Hurricane Sandy's passing with very little impact. The storm made landfall far enough to the south of us that we did not get much rain (and it was never heavy) and the winds were limited to no more than 45 miles per hour. We've had summer thunderstorms that were worse.
A few trees fell, along with several large branches and many, many smaller ones. Just as we were preparing for bed last night, a tree opposite the road from a neighbor's house toppled onto the power lines and caught fire. It was burning in three locations—the point of contact with the wire, at its base, and at mid-height where it was pressing against another tree—and with each gust of wind, showers of sparks went flying across the yard. It was very dramatic (and not a little frightening).
Eventually, the trunk burned through where it was resting against the power line and the top of the tree dangled onto the road, blocking passage. By then, an emergency responder had arrived to keep an eye on it. It was not clear whether they did anything more than direct traffic (where were these people headed at the peak of the storm?) but by midnight, the tree had burned out and the responder had left. Amazingly, we never lost power.
Of course, most of the State of New Jersey and New York City did not fare so well. Millions of people are without power and any location near a shoreline was inundated. I'm thankful that we made it through without any severe impacts and hope for a speedy and effective restoration of services—and normality—for those who were adversely affected.
