Naples Market Report | April 2019
April Report Shows Market Resurgence Continues
Naples, Fla. – Closed sales during April in the Naples housing market increased 12.8% to 1,158 properties in April 2019 from 1,027 properties in April 2018. Broker analysts reviewing the April 2019 Market Report released by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS® (NABOR®), which tracks home listings and sales within Collier County (excluding Marco Island), reported that April was a solid month with strong sales activity in both the single-family and condominium markets.
"I believe we have reason to be optimistic going into the summer," said Bill Coffey, who added, "The report showed overall sales were up 17% in April over March, and March's sales were higher than February."
According to Kathy Zorn, who analyzed April's Market Report and showing activity provided by ShowingTime, a REALTOR® resource that tracks agent listing appointments with potential buyers, it took an average of 15 showings for a property to secure a contract in April.
"The uptick in showings during the last few months are a positive indicator of continued buyer interest in our area," said Zorn. And while April's overall median closed price decreased 5.6% to $340,000 in April 2019 from $360,000 in April 2018, April 2019's median closed price was higher than both January and February's median closed prices.
The Report also showed nearly 1,000 properties went from active to either terminated, expired, or withdrawn in the Southwest Florida MLS during April, which directly impacted April's ending inventory level as seen in an 11.1% decrease to 6,435 properties in April 2019 from 7,239 properties in April 2018. But Zorn also pointed out that April saw the number of new condominium listings increase by 9.2%; whereas there was a decrease of 3.2% for new listings in the single-family homes market.
"Despite old-fashioned beliefs that our area is predominately seasonal, the last few years of home sales activity after Easter are proof that this is just not the case anymore," said Mike Hughes.
In agreement, Brenda Fioretti, added that "April and May have always been our strongest months for closings historically. But unlike last year, April's Report this year shows signs of a possible new trend: more closed sales for homes on the lower end of the price spectrum versus last year which had more closed sales in higher price points."
The Report supports Fioretti's theory as closed sales of single-family homes in April 2019 increased 4.4%, but closed sales of condominiums increased 20.1% in April 2019 compared to April 2018 market statistics. Further, the trend toward more sales of lower priced properties Fioretti mentioned is also visible in activity tracked over the last 12 months where there was a 4.3% increase or 2,727 closed sales of condominiums in the under $300,000 price category compared to a .8% decrease in this same price category for single-family homes (1,037 closed sales). The increase in condominium inventory Zorn mentioned is also a contributing factor to this new trend.
Geographically, closed sales skyrocketed in April for the Naples Beach area (34102, 34103, 34108), which had a 44.6% increase in closed sales for its single-family homes market and a 12.5% increase in closed sales for its condominium market. Also remarkable, the Central Naples area (34104, 34105, 34116) had a 22% increase in closed sales of condominiums while the East Naples area had a 36.4% increase in condominium sales and the South Naples area (34112, 34113) topped them all with an impressive 49% increase in closed sales of condominiums during April.
Hughes added that – from a buyer's perspective – "the late spring and summer months are a great time to buy because there has always been a good selection of homes in all price ranges."
One trend that continues to be applauded by broker analysts is the adoption by sellers to price their homes appropriately – based on actual comparisons of recently sold homes – in order to gauge their home's estimated value rather than pricing their homes based on unvalidated values.

Whilst perusing the latest Pottery Barn catalog, I noted that the fine print of their credit card bonus program is actually pretty sweet. If you spend $750 during the six-month "program cycle" (which appears to be the first six months of the year, and the second six months) you get a $50 gift certificate to Pottery Barn. Plus, if you spend $100 in the first month, you get a 5% rebate certificate which you could use to make the gift cards go farther. If I spent $750 on my American Express card, I'd only earn $7.50 in gift certificates, so that seems like a good deal to me. To totally dork out, $100 in gift certificates just for spending $1500 with the card (and it doesn't stipulate anything about balances, so you could pay it off right away) gets you a 6.6% return on your money. If you don't want to shop at Pottery Barn, you could sell the gift certificates on eBay or get 70% of value without hassle at GiftCardBuyBack.com or a similar site. (Most of the time eBay'ed gift certificates will get at least 85-90% of value, but it's more time-consuming and you have to pay fees.) I'm probably going to do some credit card arbitraging once my current 0% deal expires and I pay it off, so I'll apply for this one too and get my free gift card.

On Monday, Gov. Tim Pawlenty announced a 35-point legislative initiative for veterans, including a new cemetery in Duluth, and money to study their mental health needs.
If some investigative work by CBS News this week is all accurate, there's valuable data Minnesota can use.
No federal agency has tracked suicide rates among veterans, including those returning from Iraq. So CBS went to all 50 states, got 45 of them to provide death information, and calculated that vets are twice as likely as non-vets to kill themselves. And those who served in the "war on terror" had the highest suicide rate of all vets.
The challenge Minnesota — and other states — will face is that the traditional characteristics of a person considering suicide differ between vets and non-vets, so in many cases, most doctors may be missing the warning signs, because they don't know what they are.
And the clock is ticking.

Let's talk about daily morning routine ideas! And let me preface by saying I've ALWAYS been a mornin' bird—way back to Limited Too inflatable metallic chair days reading my teen devotional Bible (at age 12—so naturally I felt SO grown up).
I still love mornings, but do you know what? I'm sick of starting mornings and feeling like I'm already behind … like I'll never make peace with my day's to-do's … and like I'm insufficient.
Every. Morning. that I wake up is a gift from the Lord, and his mercies are NEW each day … and they SHOULD be carried with us throughout the day. James Wedmore gave a great podcast episode about your morning routine—because if you're not carrying it into your day and instead, keeping it silo'd, you're probably doing it wrong.
I've always been into routines and wanted to share my morning routine here. It's been a BIG game-changer when it comes to waking up with abundance and gratitude in mind … which helps squelch my grumbling later in the day.
Hopefully, this post explains the PRESENT thing I talk about on Instagram from time to time … and I'd love to know if you do this, too!
The P.R.E.S.E.N.T. Method
One of my FAVORITE books I recommend to everyone is Design Your Day by Claire Diaz-Ortiz. She's the one behind this idea, and it's brilliant.
Cued from Claire, I have these 7 letters written across the top of each day in my Emily Ley Simplified Planner. They stand for:
When I have PRESENT mornings, everything's just better!
I don't go in order, so here, I want to walk you through what I do during each part of the PRESENT routine … but actually in order that I do them.
Morning Routine Step: Express
I wake up around 5/5:30 a.m., chug a glass of water, and pull out my morning tools: my journal, my Bible, and my Bible study workbook.
I start by journaling (E for Express!) through some prompts I've learned from Michael Hyatt and John Lee Dumas.
- The date and where I am
- What the weather's like, because if it's good enough for first graders to mark on a felt board each morning during circle time, it's good enough for me. It's also fun to look back and remember when there was a snow storm or sunny beach day.
- 2 things that rocked yesterday
- 2 things that didn't rock yesterday
- 2 ways I can maybe change those
- My scripture for the day I'm studying or notes/thoughts on what I'm reading
- My mood
- Then, I pick 2-3 of these: what I'm learning from a book, things I'm excited about or nervous about, goals I'm working on, a story I want to tell, my favorite verse from the Bible study I'm working on, my focus for the day, the 3 things I want to have done by the end of the day
Morning Routine Step: Read
I read my Bible and do a few pages of my Bible study workbook (right now I'm working through all of Jen Wilikin's teachings from Flower Mound Women's Bible Study — she has a great free podcast with workbooks you can print!).
I also try to read at least 20 pages of whatever book I'm reading that week. I try to read 3-4 books a month (if I can!)—click here to read my post where I wrote about how to become a better reader as an entrepreneur.
Morning Routine Step: Exercise
Next, I hop in the car and go to my gym for a little class. My fave classes are the 30-45 minute ones (give me a quick class any day … I may feel like I'm going to keel over, but it's over faster!). If I couldn't sleep well, I skip it—my body needs sleep more!
If I slept and still want to move (which I try to do each morning) or am traveling and don't have access to a little HIIT or barre class, I do one of Drew Kutcher's 10 minute no-equipment workouts. I usually listen to a podcast on the way there, SOMETIMES business, and sometimes political (love me some Ben Shapiro).
Morning Routine Step: Prayer
Back from the gym, I pour a cup of coffee and I go to my war room to pray over my day. 🙂 If I can work up my courage, I'll show you what it actually looks like since a few of you have asked, but it's a lot of prayers and scriptures washi-taped to a door. So when I say "room," I mean I basically just swing open my closet door — and it's no walk-in. Ha! For me, this has helped focus my time talking to Jesus because — if you didn't guess, I tend to be a little easily-excitable. I'm all over the place.
If I sit in one spot, on my knees, head down on the floor with sheets of paper in front of me and a weekly guide so I don't forget what I want to bring to his feet, something magical happens: I focus on Jesus. Soo … that's why I do the war room thing. If you've not seen War Room, it's a pretty good visual of what creating space like this with Jesus actually looks like.
My FAVORITE tool for prayer is from my sweet friend Val Marie Paper. I use her prayer journal every morning to help me stay focused, keep a record of prayers the Lord has answered, write down and work on my scripture memory, and remember prayer requests. Val's entire blog is a GREAT resource on prayer—don't miss the chance to shop her journals!
Morning Routine Step: Schedule
Scheduling comes next—or typically, the night before. That helps me grease the slide!
I write out on my calendar how long things will take me and time block. I pick 3 big things to do … the rest is fluff. I also have batched days:
- Sundays: Personal Growth
- Mondays: Marketing
- Tuesdays: Client Work
- Wednesdays: Product
- Thursdays: Client Work & Meetings
- Fridays: Admin
- Saturdays: Rest
That takes the guesswork out of any task that comes on my plate … it just goes on the docket for whatever day it fits. If it's a full day that day, it goes to the next week.
Does this mean I say no to a lot of things? Yup. Does this mean I can be a hardliner about telling people when I can get them things? Yup. But clients pay me to do A+++ work … not do it overnight. And my husband married me — not an LLC. So, for someone that's struggled with clinical depression & anxiety, I have to stand by these rhythms to not just serve Wes well, but deliver top-notch client work ('cause I only take on 4 at a time max).
Here's a quick video I did about how I set up my planner and pick those 3 things each day.
Morning Routine Step: Nourish
I love studying decision fatigue and how top leaders tend to wear or eat the same thing every day … I think it rubbed off on me! I eat the same thing all week—no decisions each morning, and I just have to decide on Sunday what I want to eat all week.
For good meal ideas, I lean on my friend and mastermind sister at Simply Real Health, Sarah. I pick apart her Pinterest boards and blogs constantly!
Some weekly favorites have been:
- Green smoothies (pre-packed in little bags on Sundays)
- Kefir + yogurt + berries
- Emily Ley's fancy avocado toast idea
Morning Routine Step: Track
Kinda more of a through-the-day step, but I do track my time on a pad of paper next to me during the day. At the end of the day, I load it into Toggl (my whole team uses this to keep track of our hours).Be a maker in the morning, and a manager in the afternoon. Click To Tweet
I try really hard to hack the first 4 hours of your workday. "Be a maker in the morning, and a manager in the afternoon," I've heard.
Drill down those first 4 hours to zone in on your biggest, hardest task, or your craft (so writing copy or doing calligraphy work for me, whatever it is for you. Stephen King spent 4 hours a day writing before calling it quits and Jerry Seinfeld wrote jokes for four hours a day).
Then, track your time to see where it goes. As it turns out, you may not be working as much as you think. ???? Download my free time tracker here, and put Laura Vanderkam's books on your reading list.
So that's it, that's my morning routine, and lately, it's involved a lot of exploring this Young Living oils thing, too, which has been fun!
What do you do in the mornings?

Flavanol enhanced chocolate to go into UK production
The Granting of the first UK patent for "processing pure cacao" to Neurogenics was a long awaited day for the company's CEO, Colin Francis, who explains the process of producing confectionery with flavanols.
The formal recognition of this novel technological process means that the move towards the nutrient and therapeutic market place has begun.
Our UK launch of the first pure cacao bar "Flavanola" will be the first of its kind. It will have the highest level of phytonutrients and phytochemicals available in a natural state. It has been developed with dense nutrients and complex chemicals, including flavanols and probiotic fibre. We believe the benefits of what dark chocolate always promised is now available in pure cacao. The development of "Flavanola" has taken ten years, as the process is completely different from that surrounding chocolate making.
The current interests in cocoa flavanols and their potential impact on cardiovascular, chronic diseases and cancer, the plasticity of arteries and potential impact on insulin is one of the key drivers behind this newly patented process by Neurogenics. Current research carried out by Mars in collaboration with Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) in the US, a teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School, includes a five-year landmark study to examine the role of cocoa flavanols, plant-derived bioactives from the cacao bean, in helping people maintain cardiovascular health.
Ancillary studies will focus on a broad range of potential benefits of cocoa flavanols on brain health, including memory, decision-making skills, mood, and cognitive performance, as well as metabolic health. The randomised placebo-controlled trial [called the Cocoa Supplement and Multivitamin Outcomes Study (COSMOS) will enrol 18,000 men and women, making it the largest dietary intervention study to evaluate the health benefits of cocoa flavanols and a multivitamin.
The Neurogenics process is something that is quite different from others in this field. Not only are there powerful flavanols, but also a range of high value nutrients. These are supported by a number of complex chemicals such as theobromine and caffeine, which combined together in their natural state give powerful synergistic benefits to the body.
The implications of this process, that does not separate the cacao solids from the natural oils and butters, is a very challenging, as it is a difficult raw material to work with, and this creates a production problem. For instance, how do you develop new manufacturing equipment to produce in volume?
Our company has been busy innovating and testing a number of machines that have been built and refined over the last few years to manufacture this new product in volume. We have now developed a beta model machine which is being scaled up ready for volume production. We will begin small scale production next month in Northumberland, and will be looking to develop its natural flavanol technology in the North East of England. The ultimate aim is to become a world class leader in natural cacao flavanols.

Reds Inspired Art Show Returns to Covington in April
Covington-based design agency BLDG, in partnership with Renaissance Covington and Folk School Coffee Parlor, will host 199C: House of Cards on Saturday, April 2 from 7:00-11:00 p.m.
199C draws its name from the pantone color for the Reds and is a collaborative art experience celebrating two great achievements: Baseball and the Reds.
For the exhibition in BLDG Gallery, the agency dug into shoeboxes and rifled through childhood collections of their favorite baseball cards to find the greatest inspiration we could think of, the Reds players themselves. From Johnny Bench to Bronson Arroyo, Dave Parker to Paul O'Neill, the agency hand selected their favorite Topps baseball cards to inspire the artists.
The show will feature over 40 local, regional and nationally based artists who will create artwork based on a curated Reds baseball card they receive from BLDG.
The festivities continue outside on Pike Street where our friends from Folk School Coffee Parlor have planned family-friendly entertainment including live music by Willie Tea Taylor and Honey & Houston, a celebrity podcast by Jerry Springer and the Curve Ball Classic Homerun Derby.
It wouldn't be baseball without food and beer, so BLDG has partnered with Renaissance Covington to bring the event to the next level. Braxton Brewing Company will offer up cold beverages while local Covington restaurants and food trucks will satisfy event attendees after an evening of celebrating America's favorite pastime.

"And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt."― Sylvia Plath
Last week, when I needed a little help in my confession to my deep love for summer, I confided in one of my most reliable sources. I knew I had written some words that would help the exploration in the past. I am not one for extra work. I am efficiently lazy. I had written a poetry collection a few years back and……

24 August, 2017 Wikileaks has publishes documents from the CIA ExpressLane project. These documents show how the CIA spies on their intelligence partners around the world, including Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Security Agency (NSA), to covertly collect data from their systems.
Office of Technical Services (OTS) – the service that provides a biometric collection system to liaison services around the world "with the expectation for sharing of the biometric takes collected on the systems.
But since no agency share all of its collected biometric data with others, the Office of Technical Services (OTS) within CIA developed a tool to secretly exfiltrate data collections from their systems.
ExpressLane is installed and run under the guise of upgrading the biometric software by OTS agents that visit the liaison sites:
"ExpressLane 3.1.1 will overtly appear to be just another part of this system. It is called: MOBSLangSvc.exe and is stored in \Windows\System32.
It will covertly collect the data files of interest from the liaison system and store them compressed and encrypted in the covert partition on a specially watermarked thumb drive when it is inserted into the system. Additionally, it manages a "kill date" to disable the software by corrupting a specific configuration file associated with the software."
ExpressLane includes two components:
1. Create Partition: This component allows the agent to create a partition secret on the target system that the crawlers (in the compressed and encrypted archive) will be stored on.
2. Exit Ramp: This component allows the collector data collect the archive in the partition by the use USB drive when they revisit.
The latest version ExpressLane v3.1.1 provides an ability to disable the biometric software if liaison doesn't provide the Agency with continued access.

35 cases against Safoora Goth bus attack suspects may be sent to military courtsPakistan
KARACHI: The Sindh police plan to send 35 cases of terrorist activities allegedly carried out by Safoora Goth bus attack suspects, believed to be local operatives of self-styled Islamic State, to military courts, official sources say.
Apart from the crimes committed by bus attack suspects, two more high-profile cases of Shikarpur Imambargah attack and murder of Jamiat Ulema-i-Pakistan (JUI-F) leader Dr Khalid Mehmood Soomro had been lately re-examined by the authorities to be forwarded to the military courts, said sources.
But unlike the case of JUI-F leader, police authorities did not sound convinced to forward the murder case of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) leader Zahra Shahid Hussain as well for trial by military courts, said the sources.
"We have identified 35 incidents of terrorism and other crimes, which were carried out by the bus attack suspects," said a senior official privy to recently held series of meetings on re-examination of all terrorism-related cases before sending them to the home department that would then forward them to military courts.
"The most brutal one was obviously terrorist attack on Ismaili community bus which claimed dozens of lives. Then comes killing of social activist Sabeen Mahmud, attacks on Rangers personnel and policemen in Karachi and Hyderabad, grenade attack on a Karachi school, attacks on Bohri community people, attack on American educationist Debra Lobo and the list goes on," he said.
The Sindh police decided to 're-examine' all terrorism-related cases on the basis of severity of the crime before recommending them to the home department in the wake of Supreme Court decision in favour of military courts.
The decision was taken after detailed discussion at a recent meeting chaired by Sindh IG police Ghulam Haider Jamali at the central police office, said the sources.
"Police decided to try the suspects in Khalid Mahmood Soomro murder case in military courts as the slain leader was a main figure in a leading political party. His murder in November 2014 was marked as high-profile," said the official.
"The January 2015 bombing of Shikarpur Imambargah has also been added to the list. It's the worst case of sectarian terrorism in Sindh in recent history. So it was also marked as a case fit for military courts."
He said the Zahra Shahid murder case was also discussed at the meeting but the officials were not convinced over recommending it.
The vice president of PTI's Sindh chapter, Zahra Shahid, was gunned down on the eve of re-polling on 43 polling stations in NA-250 constituency in Karachi in May 2013. "There are a number of cases of politically motivated murders which cannot be moved to military courts," said the official.

The findings from the landmark study, which included more than 100,000 participants, were published today in the journal Neuron. The article, "Fractionating human intelligence," was written by Adrian M. Owen and Adam Hampshire from Western's Brain and Mind Institute (London, Canada) and Roger Highfield, Director of External Affairs, Science Museum Group (London, U.K).
For full article, images and video, please visit http://www.uwo.ca/its/brain/iqmyth/
Utilizing an online study open to anyone, anywhere in the world, the researchers asked respondents to complete 12 cognitive tests tapping memory, reasoning, attention and planning abilities, as well as a survey about their background and lifestyle habits.
"The uptake was astonishing," says Owen, the Canada Excellence Research Chair in Cognitive Neuroscience and Imaging and senior investigator on the project. "We expected a few hundred responses, but thousands and thousands of people took part, including people of all ages, cultures and creeds from every corner of the world."
The results showed that when a wide range of cognitive abilities are explored, the observed variations in performance can only be explained with at least three distinct components: short-term memory, reasoning and a verbal component.
No one component, or IQ, explained everything. Furthermore, the scientists used a brain scanning technique known as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), to show that these differences in cognitive ability map onto distinct circuits in the brain.
With so many respondents, the results also provided a wealth of new information about how factors such as age, gender and the tendency to play computer games influence our brain function.
"Regular brain training didn't help people's cognitive performance at all yet aging had a profound negative effect on both memory and reasoning abilities," says Owen.
Hampshire adds, "Intriguingly, people who regularly played computer games did perform significantly better in terms of both reasoning and short-term memory. And smokers performed poorly on the short-term memory and the verbal factors, while people who frequently suffer from anxiety performed badly on the short-term memory factor in particular".
To continue the groundbreaking research, the team has launched a new version of the tests at http://www.cambridgebrainsciences.com/theIQchallenge
"To ensure the results aren't biased, we can't say much about the agenda other than that there are many more fascinating questions about variations in cognitive ability that we want to answer," explains Hampshire.

Happenings in the County
Just yesterday, a friend told me that she had family arriving for a visit from Chicago. Happily, we quickly named any number of things they could do, see and experience while they were visiting. So don't let people tell you there's nothing to do in Schuylkill County!
As for myself, I'll be heading to Schuylkill Haven this weekend for the annual Allied Artists Annual Art show in a NEW venue -- Penn State Schuylkill Health and Wellness Building. Opening night is Saturday, July 13 from 6 pm to 8 pm and it will be open during those hours through July 20. There will be one exception -- this Sunday, July 14 the hours will be 2 pm to 4 pm. This is a fun show with a wide variety of art to view. You also have the opportunity to purchase art -- everything from originals to notecards -- their is something for everyone's budget.
Feel like stretching your creative muscles? Why not grab your camera (there are categories for both "camera" cameras and cellphone cameras and head to one of our state parks - Locust Lake, Tuscarora and Swatara -- because the PA Parks Department is hosting a photography contest. You can submit up to six photos until September 4 and the categories are so fun. Categories include selfie, dogs in nature, intergenerational moments and photos by young photographers (12 to 17). Check it out here.

Hey everyone, so I love how easy P&S Bead Maker is to apply. In fact, it is so easy, that I want to do it after every wash. Could that cause any issues that I am not aware of?
Also, since I live in Seattle, sometimes after a wash, it rains for several days and my car just sits there in the garage. Can I apply multiple coats of Bead Maker after each cure time? It seems more fun than just staring at my car.
Let me know if I am overthinking this.

SHADOW OF THE TOMB RAIDER (Eidos Montreal/Square Enix – PS4, X1, PC – September 14) – The third game in the revitalized reboot of the beloved Tomb Raider franchise is almost here. Marketed as Ms. Croft's defining moment, Shadow plans to heighten Lara into the Tomb Raider she was always meant to be. As someone who has finished the first 2 chapters of this trilogy, there's no doubt that this version of Lara will be the best.
On the development front, Crystal Dynamics is passing torch to Eidos Montreal but SOTTR will come off a more collaborative effort than imagined. So far the synopsis will take Lara down to Mexico and Peru, fighting Trinity once again to prevent.. you guessed it: the end of the world which our protagonist has accidentally triggered. Uh-oh. Do expect Lara to feel the guilt of her decision and the consequences throughout this new adventure.
Lara will also be more proficient with a trusty rope in tow, given the "Nathan Drake" ability to repel and swing from various places; cooler, players can be stealthier this time around, being able to reestablish cover in a firefight. This was especially frustrating in the last two games once caught in "stealth" mode, as you couldn't hide until you ran far enough away or cleared the area of enemies. Use extra caution when swimming, too, since an eel just might try and choke the life out of you. Here's to hoping our knife or pick can be used beneath the surface, too.
The overall theme this time around directs Lara right into the descent, which equates to plenty of actual tomb raiding. She will also have to deal with people (ugh!) and interact with the world around her to a larger degree instead of just bad guys and NPC's. New baddie Dominguez will test our gaming patience, and Lara's longtime friend Jonah will show up sporting some new muscles and and tattoos.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider promises to be everything the first two games were but with more polish and a few more tricks in the bag. If you haven't played the previous two games I urge you to do so. The gameplay is intuitive and the combat flows like a rabid emcee, making short work of multiple enemies in rapid succession. Best of all? There's no timed exclusive junk this time; PlayStation nerds, Xbox geeks, and PC dweebs all can enjoy the thrillride this September.

Technology should empower and facilitate your growth, not hold you back. Unfortunately, most high-growth companies do not realize they have outgrown their IT infrastructure and possibly their IT support team, which is costing them money and future earnings.
Technology should never impede your growth. The challenge in running a business is that "you do not know, what you don't know." This is especially true with technology, which can be a high growth company's downfall.
Having a small IT firm, especially one-person outfits, or using non-technical employees to advise you on technology can be detrimental. This detriment happens because they do not understand the bigger picture of where your company is going, or how your business is profitable. They tend to take the cheapest, quickest, and easiest route, not understanding that the Total Cost of Ownership will cost you double or triple the time and money down the road.
As your company grows, so should your IT support team. Scaling your IT team in-house is costly to do alone, and quite likely out of your skill set. You need technology to adapt to your company as it evolves, and eventually you need to start running your 5-person office like the enterprise corporation that it has become whether that means outsourcing your IT or developing a hybrid IT support team with a mix of in-house and outsourced solutions.

An adoptive parent who is the initial primary carer (1.1.P.230) of the child must meet the same PLP eligibility criteria as apply to a primary claimant birth mother.
For PLP purposes a reference to the birth of a child for a birth mother is a reference to the placement of a child for an adoptive parent. The day of placement of a child is the day the child has been entrusted to the care of the person by an authorised party as part of the process of adoption, and the child must be under 16 years of age at the time of placement with the adoptive parent/s.

- not have worked since becoming the primary carer (not applicable if their child has died, if they have lost care of their child without their consent, or if they are a defence force member or law enforcement officer and they have been compulsorily recalled to duty).
Note: From 1 January 2019, a NARWP applies to PLP. There are a range of exemptions from the effect of the NARWP for PLP and situations where the NARWP does not apply (126.96.36.199).

Girl can't go in public without some sort of her goods out, but still I think this color, cut, and look looked fabulous on her!
Reese is MY girl! She's probably my top girl crush, and I just love her:) I think this is so classic and clean, and I think going sans necklace was perfect. It put all the attention on her dress. Loves it!
Not a lot of people can pull off this color. However, I think she looked smashing. The dresses flows nicely to enhance her silhouette, and I think her hair and makeup were done well as in not to compete with her dress.
Homegirl is just HOTTTTTTT! I think this color really suited her skin tone! I think it was sexy without being skanky. The soft waves in her hair almost brought an old Hollywood feel to me. I really liked this!
This is another WOW. When I think of the Oscars, I think of wow dresses. I just think this is so fun and beautiful. I would love to wear something like this myself!

The Five Ages
Swedenborg's View of Spiritual History
By Emanuel Swedenborg and P.L. Johnson

The Five Ages: Swedenborg's View of Spiritual History presents a compelling spiritual and psychological history of human evolution. It is a compilation of extracts from the works of the eighteenth-century Swedish philosopher and mystic Emanuel Swedenborg on the subject of the "world ages," a concept that is found in many different cultures and mythologies. The Greeks and Romans called these epochs the Golden, Silver, Bronze and Iron Ages; Hindu mythology talks of the four yugas; Islam, meanwhile, refers to a pattern of the six major prophets. Similar time frames appear in Norse, Persian, and Aztec mythology, but nowhere is this theme treated with such detail as in the works of Swedenborg. He divides human history into five biblically based ages: that of Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus Christ, and a fifth one that is just unfolding, one predicted in the book of Revelation.
The Five Ages brings together passages from over twenty different works by Swedenborg, neatly linking them with an engaging and informative commentary in which P. L. Johnson compares and contrasts Swedenborg's ideas with those from other cultures, placing them in the context of historical and archaeological knowledge gathered since Swedenborg's time.
The book is illustrated throughout, featuring thirty helpful and charming black-and-white line drawings. It also contains a bibliography, a subject index, an index of quotations from the works of Swedenborg, and an appendix on "World Age Patterns."
"A stimulating and absorbing experience"
—Stephen Russell-Lacy, spiritualquestions.org.uk
"I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the spiritual history of the human race . . . It surpasses many books done by major publishers."
—William H Clifford, New Church Life
"Compulsive reading"
—Bruce Jarvis, Lifeline
"A valuable addition to anyone's library"
—The New Philosophy
Established in 1810, the main aim of the Swedenborg Society is to translate and publish the works of Emanuel Swedenborg.

The Swedenborg Foundation offers a selection of the Swedenborg Society's most popular titles, including the Journal of the Swedenborg Society, each volume of which consists of a collection of articles about Swedenborg's influence from some of the leading international scholars.

Ather Energy, a Bengaluru based EV manufacturer recently launched two electric scooters in India, the Ather 340 and the Ather 450. The 340 is priced at ₹ 1.09 lakh while the 450 is priced at ₹ 1.24 lakh. Both prices are on-road Bengaluru. Additionally, customers who buy Ather electric scooters will be required to pay ₹ 700 per month for the Ather One plan as well. But why the difference in price you ask? Well, that is only because both scooters are slightly different from each other. Let us find out how.
Also Read: Ather Electric Scooters; Key Features Explained
The Ather 340 uses a 1.92 kWh lithium-ion battery while the Ather 450 uses a bigger 2.4 kWh lithium-ion battery. The result of a bigger battery is slightly better performance between the two scooters.
Also Read: Ather 340 Launched In India At ₹ 1.09 Lakh
The Ather 340 has a top speed of 70 kmph while the range on a single charge is 60 kilometres. The peak torque output on the 340 is 20 Nm and the Ather claims that the 0-40 kmph sprint is done in 5.1 seconds.
Ather 450, on the other hand, has a top speed of 80 kmph and it can run for 75 kilometres on a single charge in the economy mode. Should you feel the need to go fast, switch on the power mode and it will still give you a range of 60 kilometres on a single charge. Ather 450 produces 0.5 Nm more torque than the 340 at 20.5 Nm. The 450 accelerates from standstill to 40 kmph in 3.9 seconds, which is faster than the 340's sprint time by 1.2 seconds.

Well, there is no difference as far as looks are concerned on both scooters, save for one. The Ather 340 gets green piping on the rims of the wheels while the Ather 450 gets black alloy wheels. That is about it! Rest, both scooters look exactly the same and have the same features.

Due to schools letting out, summers can be expensive for families. Many families have to find child care for the summer months, not to mention the fact that kids need something to do all summer. Between the extra food costs, activities, and travel, it can be hard to balance the books when school lets out. Luckily, families in Houston can get a break this summer thanks to Metro's "Summer of Fun" program. Starting June 1st, students can take unlimited free trips on all of Metro's local buses and trains.
The Summer of Fun program begins June 1 and runs through September 1. To take advantage of Metro's summer hospitality, students need to either use their existing student discount fare card or sign up for one for free. Cards can be applied for online, through the mail, or in person at Metro's RideStore at 1900 Main Street.
Students must provide either a student ID, class schedule, or report card, while college and university students must provide a class schedule and fee receipt or a letter from their school which verifies that they are a current student. Even when the Summer of Fun promotion ends, the discount card can let students ride any Metro service for 50 percent off of the regular fare. That means all rides are just $0.60.
The Houston Metro connects to plenty of area attractions which are perfect for kids during the long summer. Metro buses have stops at the Museum of Fine Arts, dozens of area parks, shopping centers and malls, and park and ride lots. The METRORail, meanwhile, has stops at the Museum District, Theater District, the Houston Zoo, and Central Station.
Looking for a way to make your kids' summer more affordable? Don't miss Metro's summer of fun. With gas prices on the rise, who can afford to miss out on free public transportation?

Shia LaBeouf writing film inspired by rapper Kevin Abstract
Actor Shia Labeouf is working on turning rapper Kevin Abstract's childhood into the subject of a new movie.
The Transformers star recently received high praise for Honey Boy, the semi-autobiographical film he wrote about his difficult relationship with his alcoholic father, and now he's focused on digging into the Brockhampton co-founder's past for his next venture, reports The Fader.
Titled Minor Modifications, the script is a work of fiction but is inspired by Abstract's troubled youth, during which the Texas native ran away from his mom's home at 15 and eventually moved to Georgia to live with his sister.
The project features on The Black List, which notes the industry's top, unproduced screenplays, but LaBeouf is working hard to perfect the script by spending quality time with 23-year-old Abstract, real name Clifford Ian Simpson, even holding weekly group therapy sessions to further understand the complexities of his friend's life.
"I'm trying to get as close to my subject as I am to myself, so I've been forced to be more social and go to his house all the time and so much so that we started like, a therapy group at his house…," LaBeouf recently explained on the podcast 3rd & Fairfax.
"It's called Friday Therapy. We invite friends and it's a little bit of a party, but also forced connection, where everybody gets 10 minutes to sort of unveil themselves, and because he's a very closeted person personally, he exhibits a lot in these moments…
"Me and him (sic) have gotten very close over the last year and I've been writing his 12-year-old story as well, to right around where he's 17. We've just been looking at this chapter of his life."
Further details about LaBeouf's plans for the movie have yet to be revealed.

He wants me to go first class.
I accept the best and use the best without guilt or regret.

Organs are pretty versatile. We can 3D print them or grow them in labs, either way replicating functional body parts. Now, scientists have found a way to make them flexible enough to fold. In other words, origami organs exist.
"This new class of biomaterials has potential for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine as well as drug discovery and therapeutics,"
The team stumbled upon the idea for making organ-based paper after a lucky accident during their research on 3D-printed mice ovaries.
A chance spill of the hydrogel-based gelatin ink used to make the ovaries ended up pooling into a dry sheet in the bench lab, and from one strange innovation, another was born.
A mishap gone right, the bioactive "tissue paper" can potentially be used to heal wounds or supplement hormone production.
It's a bit like papier-mâché… but what's important is that the paper retains residual biochemicals from its protein-based origins, holding on to cellular properties from the specific organ it comes from.
As with all clinical experiments, origami organs need to undergo a lot of testing. However, a sterling sign of prospective success is the fact that the paper supports human stem cell growth. I guess paper cranes are now more than just an art form.

Through public sector reform the government of Nigeria attempted to implement its economic reform program. In this paper we will describe the various reform policies taken by the government to implement the reform.
Public Sector Reforms in Nigeria was introduced to drive the human resource development process and form a effective resource utilization policy. The main of the government was to set a proper man management system. The development of any country very much depends on the caliber and organization of the human resources.
So, the government of Nigeria introduced public sector reform.
Reasons Behind Reform
Nigeria was not able to move along with the worldwide development in public sector reform.
Revenues were not coming smoothly which increased the economic and financial pressure. Rate of unemployment was on the higher side.
New and upcoming technical and as well as social challenges were coming and political situations were getting unstable.
Reform Process
The government introduced a contractual system for the labors. Moreover, a direct taxation system was started for collecting tax from the labors.
The focus of the government remained on the optimum utilization of the human resources. Therefore, several changes had been made in the recruitment policies. Stress had been given on the experience and qualification of the resources.
In the second stage of public sector reform, the Nigerian government paid attention on the training and development program of the human resources. Several private and foreign enterprises were encouraged to train the workers.
The Center for Management Development (CMD), the Administrative Staff College of Nigeria (ASCON) and the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) had been managing the training programs from the early 1970s. The government announced several policies and programs to enhance the operation of those organizations.
The employment policies were made more transparent to overcome the socio economic crisis.
Several administrative review commissions had been formed to improve the management of the public and as well as the private enterprises.
More stress had been given by the government to improve inter and intra departmental communication. Ministry head quarters were centralized to make controlling system easy.
Effect of Public Sector Reform
Through this reform the government of Nigeria was able to improve the labor quality. Unemployment issues had been solved to some extent. And lastly, the public service capacity had been enhanced through which, the performance deficits were minimized within 2005.

Omnitrol updates middleware platform, unveils small appliance
Omnitrol Networks has released an update of its flagship software platform, Edge Applications and Services Engine (EASE), along with a new middleware appliance. The new appliance, called the OMNITROL-A or the Nano, is billed as the industry's smallest middleware appliance for RFID and sensor networks.
Version 2.1 of EASE includes a new version of the OMNITROL Service Development Kit enabling quicker development of customer-defined business processes. Also included in the update are an enhanced Emulator to simulate sensors and RFID devices in order to develop, test and monitor system implementations; and integration with new databases and ERP applications to enable smooth collaboration with customer legacy environments. Finally, the software now offers support for two appliances, the OMNITROL-M and the new OMNITROL-A.
The OMNITROL-A, also known as the OMNITROL NANO, is a middleware appliance scaled to fit smaller deployment situations, where a limited number of RFID readers are needed. It is about a third the size of 1U rack-mountable server, and consumes less than 30 watts of electricity, the equivalent of an energy saving light bulb. The device includes serial interfaces, and has no fan or moving parts.

Visibility matters.
For the youth of today to see young transgender characters on shows like Butterfly, a mainstream TV show with famous actors, is monumental. Not only does it serve as a powerful representation for trans youth fighting against the hostility towards their identities, but it also works as an important source of knowledge for the general public who might be unfamiliar with the trials and tribulations of the LGBT+ community.
It's easy to forget that it's taken years of campaigners working for better representation to bring a story like Butterfly to mainstream television.
Up until the 1990s and mid-2000s, transgender issues weren't often seen on screen, and when they were, it was through portrayals by straight, cisgender actors like Hilary Swank in Boys Don't Cry, or Felicity Huffman in Transamerica. It wasnˆt until Netflix's Orange is the New Black launched in 2013 that we saw a real breakthrough for transgender culture, with Laverne Cox in the role of transgender prisoner Sophia Burset.
It's important for minority communities such as ours to reflect on those breakthrough moments to appreciate how far we've come – and how much further we still need to go; because it's only by looking back at our history that we can pave the way forward.
It's been just over 50 years since same-sex activity between men was decriminalised in the UK, led by John Wolfenden; it's been almost 50 years since the first Pride march in London, with campaigners like Peter Tatchell; 20 years since television shows with regular LGBT+ characters like Ellen, Friends and Will & Grace first appeared on our screens; 14 years since civil partnerships were introduced in the UK and six years since same-sex marriage became legal.
The UK is now one of the best countries in the world for LGBT+ equality.
However, despite our community's progress and rich LGBT+ history, there are still many people who don't see themselves represented in daily life.
That's why celebrations like LGBT+ History Month, Pride Month, or queer-focused awards allow us to promote LGBT+ causes and raise awareness about the modern issues that affect the community, while celebrating our achievements and increasing the visibility of LGBT+ trailblazers who inspire the next generation of change-makers.
I'm proud that the nominees of the British LGBT Awards reflect that, with a wealth of intersectional role models to be found in this year's shortlist for the 17 May ceremony.
It's clear that despite the many strides that have been made in the past, many young LGBT+ people are still struggling to come out today – especially people of colour, who are often marginalised from the mainstream discourses of LGBT+ equality.
Some of the diverse and groundbreaking stars nominated by the British public this year include: pansexual singer Janelle Monáe; gender fluid drag star Courtney Act; Amazon Prime series The Bold Type's interracial lesbian couple featuring two women of colour; gender fluid model Cara Delevingne; "lesbian Jesus" singer Hayley Kiyoko; actress and political campaigner Cynthia Nixon; drag icon RuPaul; and trans activist Munroe Bergdorf.
My hope is that even if LGBT+ youth can't see themselves represented in history, they will see themselves in the people fighting for their rights today, and grow up knowing that they aren't alone.

Samsung Z510
- Yiannis
Samsung presented design-wise an excellent combination between Motorola V3i (no 3G) and V3x (thick) in a package called Samsung Z510. It has an excellent LCD, it is VERY slim and it is a 3G with many other goodies. In the box it comes with 2 batteries. As http:\www.soundtech.com.cy started selling this product since yesterday we have noticed a great demand. Since we are selling a lot of V3 and V3i we are sure this mobile will be head on with V3i. We will see who will be the winner (most likely in USA Motorola and in the rest of the war Samsung).
PLEASE when someone has something intelligent, positive or negative comment about a specific model to let everybody else know. Software and hardware problems are very important. So, please stop posting childish comments.

Samsung maximising on other manufacturers designs again. The D500 was a siemans slider rip off and this being one of the Moto V3. Looks great from the outside but disappointing open. the screen looks small too and the camera's only 1.3mp, for a new phone that's quite low.

It looks like this phone's design was based on moto razr v3

i have only seen both the v3 and this saumsung from pcitures but from what i have heard about the v3 range everything about it seems bad. the buttons lok very hard to use.
i was just wondering if anyone could comment on the samsung, like battery life, memory, camera capability?
because i am wondering whether to get this or the nokia 7370?

this phone looks interesting but is a liitle pricey for me.
i just had to agree with the person who wrote a e-mail regarding the nonsense being expressed on this web site.i have been looking for some practical info, instead people write about b.s. gsm arena is a very good source of info. to bad for the people
who !@#$%^&*!!!!
thanks again to e-mailer zzzzzzz

This is for posting your opinion on the phones not pointless drivel. If a person says they think the phone is ugly or point out that the phone has no memory card slot then they are posting their opinion on the phone which is what this function is for.
- 17 Feb 2006
- myH
It is good that we make efforts to comment on a product characteristics. However, to certain people whom only knows how to complaint i.e. 'there is no memory / the phone is ugly when opened...blah blah blah' we can make the world a better place by keeping ourselves quiet. As everybody knows out there, there is simply no perfect handset when everybody's tastes are so diverse. Complaining on this forum only makes the complainant look silly not to mention, shallow on his thoughts for failing to think before he writes. Has it ever occured to you that there are people actually don't mind having phones with no expandable memory while loving the design as well?? Think again.
- 17 Feb 2006
- ()_+
I think the phone is very nice style wise, but just lacks memory. Thats pretty much it. If it had memory slot and bigger internal memory i would prolly buy it
- 14 Feb 2006

- Carbonize
So you make a post, that has nothing to do with the phone, just to complain about people making posts that have nothing to do with the phone? the words pot and kettle come to mind.
I still say the phone is ugly when open and the lack of a memory card slot is a big downer for me.

Please would all u people that write opinions, keep it directed towards the product that is the topic. Too many of you people bullsh_t about stupid things that are a waste of time for the people reviewing these products. If you guys feel like chatting with each other, for goodness sakes please exchange emails and do it that way so us real consumers can read whats important about these products and not your life stories etc... If you know a problem about the phone write it. If theres good features, write it. Stop talking about useless things please. Thank you.

ca$h errrr the V3i isn't 3G, the V3x is 3G and if you read the 'opinions' a lot of people are comparing this with the bog standard V3 and not the V3i which still would be the wrong phone to compare it with.
And again I say 'NO CARD SLOT'.
- 31 Jan 2006

- Carbonize
Suprised nobody has compared this to the LG P7200 since thats what it resembles to me more than a V3. Anyway this phone looks good closed but damn tacky when opened.
This phones major downside is NO CARD SLOT. It has an MP3 player and megapixel camera but no SD card slot.

Check this out!
Side by side comparisons between the z510 AND v3i
It clearly shows z510 is superior in every way.

give it up prelom! you obviously know nothing when it comes to phones. I still have the v3 and i fight the temptation to trow it off a bridge everyday! it's so lame and boring!Whereas samsung not only has the looks but also the features!
- 29 Jan 2006

I do not think it matters who copy from who. As long as the phone pack with features and affordable, then it is the winner.
Ooo..I wish N70 features inside this phone..

Reading all your comments, i can't help but think, if you had the thoughts of a well educated phone guru, he would tell you that the V3 is a good looking phone, with no features, the Z510 is also a good looking phone with features and reliability to blow the over rated V3 away. People's. . . stop reading the comments writen by Motorola employees and do the Maths yourself.
- 24 Jan 2006
- manufacturing
To desing a fone, it takes about 9~10 months. It means that you need as much time to copy another model. Mobile phone is not pan cake you bake in the oven. I am not sure but think once more before you say it is an imitation of V3 series

In each box was a $20 gift card for a ham or turkey. The lodge used their $2,500 Gratitude Grant, $2,500 Beacon Grant and $2,000 Spotlight Grants from the Elks National Foundation plus lodge member donations of food and money. Toys that were donated by Florida Elks State Association and Walgreens were included in 22 of the boxes. Home Depot donated the boxes. The volunteers delivered nine boxes to Heaven on Earth for Veterans whose mission is to alleviate Pinellas County veteran homelessness by providing quality, low cost, safe living spaces. Six boxes went to families in need at Tyrone Middle School, 22 boxes went to single-parent homes with two to four kids each, and the remaining 263 boxes along with excess food went to the 38th Avenue Baptist church to be delivered through their indigent family care list.

A father and son duo accused of taking control of multiple web domains using Greg LeMond's trademarked name and business have been ordered to shut down any online use. A federal judge in Minneapolis has released a preliminary order pointing to LeMond's "likelihood of success" in the $6.6 million lawsuit.
District Judge John Tunheim's court order indicated that 66-year-old Frederick Stinchfield and his son, 32-year-old Frederick Stinchfield III, "have admitted that they have no interest in maintaining ownership of the domain names and that they are willing to transfer whatever ownership interest they have … to LeMond."
LeMond had previously accused them of being cybersquatters and of taking control of 66 web domains linked to LeMond and his Grail business. The websites included lemondgrail.com and grailcarbon.us, and were published with allegations and slurs detrimental to LeMond.
The elder Stinchfield has claimed that someone not known to him must have hoarded the web addresses in dispute. He said in a court filing that he wanted LeMond to "acknowledge publicly [that the] proceeding against me was erroneous and inappropriate."
He told Startribune.com via email on Monday that there was no change in the litigation. "The judge is merely keeping the status quo until trial since we said we had no interest in any of Lemond's marks or names. This remains bogus and defamatory litigation as to me." LeMond's attorney Lawrence M. Shapiro stated that the triple Tour de France winner "is pleased with the court's order." He declined to comment further about the lawsuit.

The last shot is of the sixth floor of the Graham House Wing with a new metal floor. This will ultimately be a 7th grade classroom suite with a commons.
It is very exciting to see the work on this transformative project moving along and the plans starting to take shape!
