so here's the deal...
i really really really hate coming on anywhere and fussing, ranting or lamenting about things but… i'm extremely stressed, frustrated and upset.
my main pc is fucked, apparently. for the past 3 months, i've been working off of my old, dinosaur aged pc (it's 10+ years old, barely works, has trouble booting etc) ever since my newer pc started having serious issues. over this past weekend, i was finally able to take it the shop and get it looked at. they informed me a day later that one of the ram sticks was bad (as my partner had already suspected) and i was charged 100 bucks for this discovery, that i had to borrow from my parents.
they voicemail that i had received informing me of the issues found, that if i wanted repairs, it would cost 40 bucks alone for install + whatever price i chose to spend for new ram stick(s), however, once i visited the store to actually SPEAK to someone (their phone system is trash and no one would answer/return my call), i was told any parts install would cost SIXTY bucks instead and offered new parts costing from 100-120 in range, which would ultimately make the total cost + the 100 for diagnosis, close to 200 bucks.
my partner says that's a ridiculous price to pay for something that can be popped in and out to replace but unfortunately, i'm not very knowledgeable about hardware and hardware installation so i don't feel confident in going in there myself and replacing it/them even if i got my hands on new parts and we are also long distance so he's not able to do the install for me.
what i thought should be 'thankfully', the shop took out the 'bad' stick and i was told i should be able to bring my pc home and use it RELATIVELY normally without replacing it at this time, it just would not be able to run at the same capacity as it could have if it had both sticks of ram installed. at this time, it's worked for a total of.. a day and a half normally and without issue before having the same major issues again; web browser/tabs crashing, apps fully crashing or not operating (discord is currently a blank/grey window for me right now and i have to use the browser app to even use it), inability to install anything and finally, a full blue screened pc crash; so now i'm assuming BOTH sticks were bad and the brand installed is trash. (i do not know the brand of any parts installed in my pc as my ex purchased them all months before our relationship ended)
so what's the point i'm trying to get to?
i'm in desperate need of some money. i'm a disabled, unemployed person who my parents basically resent for needing their support for survival and i've been trying VERY hard to work towards making ANY kind of income from my creative skills in order to start saving up to attempt to move out of my parents' home and across several states to live my partner as, after being kicked out and left by my ex, has landed me in yet another home that doesn't respect or treat me fairly and takes a toll on my mental health/stress and motivation/focus on a daily basis. the added daily stress of not knowing if my (EXPENSIVE) devices are reliable and functioning has made it extra difficult to stay focused and motivated to keep moving towards my goals.
i currently have no financial nor food security as my parents often (intentionally) leave me out of meals, don't allow me any cash to go shop for myself and tell me to get a job, on the rare occasions i do happen to ask for 5-10 bucks for some dinner, same as they did when i asked for them to help me repair a device that COULD be a job for me if i could just get it back to working condition.
i am VERY new to doing commissions and i understand it does take some time to establish a good work flow + trustworthy reputation as a commission artist but i am determined to work hard and as efficiently as possible to provide clients with the best possible work i can produce. i am NOT, however, new to the art market world as i've had many mutuals and friends who have had commission shops or have gone on to produce their own physical merchandise so i've had many years of observing the processes and progressions.
at this current time, i'm considering setting aside my plans for vtuber development i had for this year which would have included working on small, 'mini' debuts leading up to a larger, legit debut as i progressed to learn to make my own environment overlays and assets + relearning live2d skills to rig my own model, to solely focus on constantly making art to showcase my skills for hire. i am also considering, after polishing up my commissions page more, including smaller, bonus arts with larger piece purchases as a small thank u for people helping me gain work and funds for my needs.
i'm just.. really drained and tired of prolonged issues taking a toll on me, both general life things i've experienced most my life and now these frustrating tech problems that i hope would have been non-existent with a newer pc as i had been experiencing many troubles with my old pc for years (this new pc is only a year old). i'm ready to be able to have peace in my life and to focus on things that are fulfilling to me and bettering skills that bring me joy.

Season 3 in full swing - But first... the Pre-Season
Alright, I’ll admit it, I’ve been slacking here. It takes time to write these up, and time is something I have not had as much of as I’d like. We made it to the very end of 2018 in the last blog post, and we had a whopping $103.68 in the game hunting money stash. I’ll tell you what too, it gets even better. One of my first finds of 2019 was at the Goodwill, and it wasn’t even a game, but boy did it help the game hunting money.
A decent condition TU-2 Tuner pedal from Boss. I actually have one of my own and didn’t need one at all, but at TWO BUCKS? I couldn’t pass it up, knowing it’d have to be easily $40 at minimum, without even looking it up. It was a little dusty, and had a few dings and scrapes, but man, these things are tanks. Anyone familiar with this will recognize it as really good condition. I’ve seen them with massive amounts of rust and nearly no paint left and they still work like a charm.
Little before and after for you here:
Tumblr media
Sold that son of a bitch for a cool $58.99 on eBay. After listing fee, PayPal fee, and shipping we add $44.06 to the game hunting money, totaling $147.74. A new record high!
That was in early February. Deep winter is terrible for finds, and it wasn’t until late March, on the 22nd, until I found even SOMETHING. A Wii sensor bar for $0.99 at Goodwill. No pics of that, it’s a sensor bar. It’s... yeah. A sensor bar. I needed them though, I have like 6 extra Wiis. Been waiting to get a couple complete systems so I can sell, or mod and sell each one. In any case, totaled $1.06 out the door. We drop to $146.68. Moving on.
March 26th, once again, at the Goodwill. Knocking on Spring cleaning’s door and I spot a blue Dual Shock 2 controller. Sitting in the toys section, not electronics. Not by the video games. In the toys section. This is not the first time this has happened, finding something game related in the toys section. Last time I think it was a few actual PS2 games.
Tumblr media
Tiny bit of dust in some of the nooks and crannies, but man is it in good condition. Sticks are 9/10 easy, and buttons are nice and crispy. My new favorite PS2 controller right now. This one set us back $3.99. Or, $4.29 out the door. This takes us to $142.39.
Great find, I only had one DualShock 2 controller when I found this, so really couldn’t have been better timing. Having two again makes the system feel whole again somehow.
Moving into April, we ran across an unusually valuable title. Now I don’t mean it is worth $100 or anything, I just mean it is one that you would liken to be being something along the lines of maybe $5 complete.
Wheel of Fortune for PS3 - Found at Goodwill 04.12.2019
Tumblr media
Again, not a hundred dollars but it was still worth $13.95 on Pricecharting. Usually that tells me it is a least worth a play. So I snagged it. This was Goodwill again, so $2.99, and $3.21 out the door. Takes the hunting money down to $139.18.
on 04.15.2019 I hit a flea market. Really not much there, one guy had a completely obliterated Sega Dreamcast I didn’t even look twice at. That was it, other than a guy with a small bag of DS and GBA games. He wanted $30 for the whole bag, and I’d never heard of any title other than this one...
Tumblr media
Snagged it for $4 just by itself. It looks like its going for about $12 loose, so I thought that was acceptable. I don’t have a DS to test it on (yet), but cartridges almost never fail really. So fingers crossed this one is fine. Takes us to $135.18.
A couple weeks later, it is still not yet really Yard Sale season. There has been a sprinkling, and by this time I have visited a handful, but with no luck finding anything. The next find is still a thrift store find. I’ll admit I probably paid more for this than I should have, Pricecharting has this one at $5.69 complete. I paid $3.92, which brought it to $4.20 after tax.
Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception - Found 04.28.2019 at VoA
Tumblr media
I don’t mind paying a little more for games when they have been tough to find, or if they are going to my collection. This one is both. The Uncharted series, ever since I found out about it, and that it was generally well received and liked, I’ve been looking for copies. I knew they were cheap and the only time I’ve run across any copies was at GameStop, and they were $4.99, and disc only. I’m like I am not paying $5 plus tax, for a disc only game that is worth pretty much exactly that CIB. I want the box to put on the shelf! So when I saw this in the thrift I grabbed it anyway. Still under retail price, or at least what I’d pay on eBay to have one shipped. Most were around $10, give or take a dollar. So half price? Not bad, and in decent condition.
The $4.20 takes us to $130.98.
Now, we are at least into the current month. I walked into The Salvation Army store on May 9th and spotted this...
Tumblr media
A Sega CD. Not easy to find or come by, especially in the box. However, not being a Sega guy (obviously), and because of that, not having looked at prices for Sega CD really ever, let alone recently, I guessed at it being worth about $100 to $120. I thought the condition of the box was a little rough to be asking $69.99, so I left with only the photo on my phone.
Later that evening I looked on eBay sold listings and was a little surprised. Ones without the box were going for what I thought the CIB one would be worth. I posted the shot I snapped above on my Instagram and asked my followers their opinion: Would they have picked it up?
Overwhelmingly... yes, they would have!
So I stopped in the next morning after they opened and asked to look at it. It was indeed CIB, though the box had seen better days. Even the carton inside had a few rips. but it was all there, and still held everything securely. I asked if it had been tested. The guy at the front said yes they test everything they get. I said oh, you guys have a Genesis to hook to this? Could I see it work?
That was met with a blank stare. Another guy that does the testing actually admitted that it was not tested. So I said how about $40 then, since I’m taking a risk here. They said they can’t adjust the price, only the manager can do that. I asked if the manager was in and after a little chasing, they found her and she came up to the front to talk to me. I explained that this is an add-on system, not a stand alone console and it is not tested, I’d like to get it for a little cheaper to account for the risk I’m taking if I buy it. She lowered the price to $49.99.
I bought it.
Tumblr media
Everything is there, the extension piece, the adapter, the manual, both RF shields, and the plate used to attach the extension. There was even a game in it!
Tumblr media
The disc is VERY rough on Ecco, but it does play. I know this because a co-worker helped me out, gave me his Genesis and it fired right up on the first try, and booted the game with no problems. I tried a few more times just to make sure it wasn’t a fluke, even let it run for a while, and played a bit of it. It did struggle here and there because of the scratches, but otherwise played fine!
Could not be happier. I plan to clean it up a bit, as you can see it does have some dust and grime on it.
Tumblr media
But once that’s taken care of I think it will be a great looking Sega CD. I will probably offer it up to Instagram first before trying it on the ‘bay. if anyone is interested please let me know on Instagram, I’m just @oldnintendonerd.
The price isn’t set yet, I am thinking somewhere between about $175 and $200. The last one that sold on ebay went for $300 shipped. better condition box though, so that’s why i’m thinking somewhere in the neighborhood of $200 to $230 shipped. I’m open to opinions if you have them, comment here or DM on IG.
This purchase, after tax was $53.74, taking us down to $77.24. however, this was bought SOLELY to flip. I do not collect for Sega, so this is entirely for profit to help buy more Nintendo stuff. I have no problem with Sega, I do not view it as trash or anything, I just didn’t grow up with it, and my heart belongs to Nintendo. There is only so much room in my home, and in my budget, so it must go.
We’ll call it there for this one, hopefully I’ll have another post up much sooner than every three months or so. Summer months should yield higher finds so I can detail stuff here more often. I hope.

5 Great Emergency Roof Repair Tips Emergency Roof Repairs in a Nutshell One thing to keep in mind when you’re doing emergency roof repairs is that they’re not a one stop solution. You can’t just throw some sealant on it and call it a day. More often than not, emergency roof repairs are a temporary fix that buys you time to get a professional to fix those holes. With that in mind, here are a few of our great emergency roof repair tips to ensure that you can buy as much time as possible. Avoid Doing The Emergency Roof Repair In Horrible Weather We cannot stress enough how reckless it is to go up on your roof in the middle of bad weather. You could end up blown off the roof because of strong winds, or get hit by lightning if you’re particularly unlucky. Either way, you’d be in a lot of pain or worse. So simply put a bucket or two under the leaks and wait until the weather clears up. Have The Right Tools and Materials For The Emergency Roof Repair If you’re planning to fix that leak with a wad of chewed bubblegum or duct tape, then you’re doing it wrong. Your top priority when it comes to doing roof repair and maintenance is to ensure that you don’t cause any damage yourself. Having the wrong tools and materials will cause more trouble than the damage itself in the long run so make sure you have the right ones in the first place. Make Sure To Inspect Your Roof You might think that the leak directly over your carpet is coming from a hole directly over your carpet. However, that tends to not be the case as the water could flow from another source. Check the outside of your roof for any clear holes and use a hose to directly identify those leaks. Your Roof Isn’t The Only Thing You Should Be Aware Of You should also make sure to check other signs that there could be a different source of a leak. The biggest example here are water stains along your walls. Keep an eye out for these and follow the source to ensure that you’re plugging up the right leak first.
COST How Much Does It Cost To Emergency Repair A Roof? Typical Range: $353 - $1,436 Roof Repair Cost Emergency Roof Repair Service near Albuquerque NM: The national average roof repair cost is $888, with most homeowners spending between $353 and $1,436. Most common small roof repairs cost between $150 and $400. Labor runs around $45 to $75 per hour. Roofing professionals should handle any large or complicated jobs. If you have any doubts about your ability to complete the job safely, call several contractors and collect quotes. Roof Leak Repair Costs A leaking roof typically costs anywhere from $10 to $120 for a simple fix. Luckily, it is possible for homeowners to repair some issues on their own. Here are some common leaks and the usual DIY cost to repair them: Issue Cost ● Cracked Flashing $20 ● Broken or Missing Shingles $30+ ● Cracked Vent Booting $10-$20 ● Ice Dams $50-$120 ● Skylight Leaks $25-$80 ● Clogged Gutters $0
Roof Repair Cost Calculator ● National Average $888 ● Typical Range $353 - $1,436 ● Low End - High End $150 - $5,531 Cost data is based on actual project costs as reported by 56,723 HomeAdvisor members. Average cost to repair a roof is $875 or $150 to $5,000 Emergency Roof Repair Service near Albuquerque NM: Maintaining a sound roof tops the list of crucial home repairs. It keeps your home interior warm and dry and protects it from the elements. If you notice damage or signs of wear, take action right away. Otherwise, you may need to pay the price to have your roof replaced. How to Fix Common Causes of Leaks Cracked flashing: Flashing is the metal strip that creates a water-resistant barrier between joints. Metal can crack or corrode from the page or deteriorated sealant. To fix, gently pry up the material and remove nails. Nail a new strip in place and reseal. Broken or missing shingles: High winds can break or remove shingles. If broken, lift the shingle with a pry bar until the nails holding it pump up. Gently remove nails and old shingles. Replace with a new one and nail in place. Cracked vent booting: Vent booting is a gasket used to seal roof vents. To repair, cut away the old boot with a knife. Install the new one over the vent and under the shingles. Secure with nails and seal with caulk. Ice dams: If snow melt on your roof refreezes, it can create ice dams that hold snow to your roof. The weight can cause damage. Use a roof rake to fix it and remove the first four feet of snow from the roof edge. Then use ice melt products per manufacturer's instructions. Consider investing in a roof heat cable to prevent future issues. Skylight leaks: Skylights can trap water and the frame seals can crack and form leaks. If there’s a problem, clean off debris and repair cracks with clear silicone sealant. Clogged gutters: Clean these out properly to prevent water from pooling up. Otherwise, clogged gutters will prevent rainwater from running off efficiently.
Other Common Roof Repairs and Costs Emergency Roof Repair Service near Albuquerque NM: Anything that is exposed to the elements can suffer damage. Here are some areas that many people miss during their own inspection: Garage Roof Repair Costs The cost to replace a garage roof is about $1,500. Prices for garage roof repairs are subjective depending on the damage and materials used. In general, you can expect to pay a bit less for garage roof fixes than for regular roof repairs due to the smaller square footage. Fascia and Soffits Repairs The average cost to repair fascia and soffits is $3,300. Fascia is available in wood or PVC and costs around $10 to $30 per 8-foot board. Soffit panels cost around $20 for a 12-foot board. Fascia and soffit are more than just decorative edging and an enclosed overhang. It protects the roof structure from the elements. Fascia is vertical trim that protects your trusses. Soffit runs horizontally and is an attractive place for insects and small animals. Deterioration is fairly easy to see and can cause problems with your gutters. Repairing Roof Trusses Roof trusses cost $1.50 to $4.50 per square foot. These are the main structures that support your roof. Leaks often run along the trusses before dripping down onto your ceiling, so be sure to inspect this area for damage. If your truss is sagging or moldy or if you have any doubts, call a roofer for an inspection. Some molds are dangerous, if not lethal, to inhale. The repair cost for trusses is difficult to estimate as damage varies quite a bit. If your roof truss is so badly damaged that repair is impossible, replacing them can cost thousands of dollars. Be sure to check them out thoroughly! Roof Gutters Emergency Roof Repair Service near Albuquerque NM: Cleaning your gutters isn't the most glamorous job. It can be time-consuming and messy. However, this job is one of the simplest things you can do to keep your roof protected, otherwise: They can trap water and deteriorate the fascia, the trusses, the underlayment and can start to fall apart themselves. They leak or fall away from the house and allow water to pool up around your foundation. It costs only $2 to $4 to patch gutter holes with a tube of roofing cement and a patch. The patch material must be the same material as the gutter to prevent corrosion, which can occur between different metals. Otherwise, you may need to pay the cost to install or replace gutters that are broken or sagging so that runoff can safely leave your roof.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What are the signs a roof needs to be replaced? Leaks, missing or torn shingles, loose flashings, excessive shingle granules in gutters, and ceiling spots can signal roof problems. Age is another indicator; if your roof is 20 years old, it could be at the end of its lifespan.
My roof is leaking. Do I need to have it completely replaced? Not necessarily. Our crews can often make repairs to extend the life of a roof that is otherwise in good condition. However, if a roof is demonstrating many symptoms of age and wear, replacement may be the only option.
How do I decide which roofing material to use? Choosing which type of roof is right for you will depend upon numerous factors, including your budget, taste and needs. Before making your choice, consider the lifecycle cost of your roofing material. Some materials, although initially more expensive, require less maintenance and have a longer life expectancy than others. An asphalt shingle roof might last 20 years, but a metal roof can last more than 50 and might be more cost-effective in the long run.
How do I know if I have hail damage to my roof? You may be able to see severe hail strikes from the ground, but most often hail damage is not visible to the untrained eye. If you've experienced hail in your area, call Brown Roofing to schedule a professional inspection.
What is an ice dam? Ice dams are formed by the thawing and freezing of melted snow at the eaves. The ice dam can force water up and under shingles, causing leaks. In areas where winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, ice dams can cause serious and expensive damage to a roof and to the structure of a home.
How long do asphalt shingles last? Shingles come in different grades. The better the grade, the longer the life expectancy, which can range from 15 to more than 40 years.
What is the lifespan of a metal roof? New alloys and coatings make metal roofing panels more durable, with extended life cycles that exceed those of shingles or shakes. Today's metal roofs can be expected to last at least 50 years.
How long will it take to replace my roof? Most residential roofing jobs can be completed in a single day. If a roof takes more than one day, we clean and secure the site at the end of each day and take care to protect any vulnerable areas from the weather.
Will you clean up after my roofing project? Yes. At the end of the job, we conduct a thorough clean-up and walk-through. You approve final cleaning upon completion, and we won't leave until you are happy!

What I’ve learned throughout 70 organizations across 4 continents, 18 countries...
...and nearly every U.S. continental State, with experience spanning virtually every industry (Military, Construction, Healthcare, Property Management, Transportation, Telecommunications, E-commerce, Food Service, Entertainment, more) to include dozens of Churches, and more than three years volunteering between 5 nonprofits/causes, even experimenting for around a year as homeless literally living the veteran struggle while sleeping the streets and beaches from SoCal to Miami and a dozen homeless/transitional shelters in between.
First, I want to share one of my most interesting and profound observations throughout my life’s journey in yet another obvious and concrete testament to the power and reality of God concerning the amazingly stark contrast between the Church and secular world. Between the several dozen Churches I’ve had the privilege of experiencing across half a dozen States, I can honestly testify to witnessing a very happy, healthy, successful, purpose filled/driven, and inspired people across the board, with unemployment, homelessness, and suicide virtually non-existent. It’s true, you won’t find one homeless or unemployed person who is part of a Church (for long), because there are plenty of successful homeowners and business owners in (nearly) every Church who are happy and able to help. These observations have also led me to the realization of how bad the homeless situation would actually be if it were not for God’s Church. Between Jacksonville Florida and Miami alone there are more than several dozen Church organizations providing temporary shelter, meals, and other services for the homeless, and they are all taxed to the max. How ironic, yet amazingly odd, how tens of thousands literally depend on our God while rejecting Him… Think about how much worse the situation would be if these Churches disappeared! Which brings me to another observation.
Having lived and worked amongst the secular world much of my life, I can tell you from experience that the picture for the majority of those who reject our Creator is absolutely miserable and depressing. Sadly, it has been my painful observation that most secularists are living meaningless enslaved tortuous lives, almost completely void of love, creativity, or inspiration, under crushingly overwhelming and seemingly hopeless (without God) problems. A look at every facet of our society also reveals this truth to be dreadfully obvious. Take modern art, music, entertainment, and architecture, for example. If you haven’t noticed, our entire culture is now almost completely void of creativity, inspiration, or beauty. Stats don’t lie either. Health and mental problems (40% of Americans are obese –literally destroying body and mind, 1/6 take psych meds./1/33 born defective), addiction (20+ million -200+ die every day from drug overdose), and suicide (120+ daily suicides) are at epidemic levels, with rampant poverty (13.5% = 43+ million Americans), homelessness (600k Americans), unemployment (real unemployment = 20’ish%), parasitic infestations (25+/-% among poor black communities), diseases (1/4 w/STD), viruses (33 die daily from AIDS), and cancer (1/3 will get cancer). It’s too bad no one has been separating these stats by religion, or you would know my observation to be true. Granted, any stat would be muddled by a majority of fake proclaiming Christians, particularly Catholics. However, there is more definitive evidence to support my observation, which brings me to my next related observation –weather.
Consider the increasing natural disasters which devastated numerous U.S cities and entire states last year costing our country 300+ billion last year alone. Yet in another display of Divine Protection, out of the 31 Billion plus-dollar natural disasters which struck all over the country the last 2 years, amazingly, America’s ‘Bible-Belt’ was barely been touched. Is it any coincidence that our modern Sodom and Gomorrah cities (L.A. & Vegas) are desert wastelands literally on fire and in severe drought, with California on the verge of bankruptcy as people and businesses leave in mass, while the ‘Bible Belt’ flourishes with both green and industry? Nope. These areas are great examples both of God’s blessing and judgment. Which is why no one should be surprised if California is hit with the ‘Big One’ and slides off into the ocean, or is struck with drought and famine devastating the economy. Still skeptical? Consider Israel and her surroundings, another stark contrast of economies demonstrating both God’s blessing and judgment. While the Middle East is a desert wasteland plagued with conflict, stagnant growth, poverty, and famine, dominated by the evil enslavement of Islam’s death cult factions, Israel, a baby country, flourishes in every way, literally turning their desert into a blossoming garden while leading the world in growth and technology and as a beacon of freedom, prosperity, and hope -and all this despite the fact that Israel is literally surrounded by vicious and merciless enemies who are hell bent on her destruction, even winning battle after battle against the odds.
Secondly, considering my extensive experience both as a homeless veteran and across America’s Work-Force, with a 99% hire rate and 12+ resume repertoire, I believe it’s safe to refer to myself not only as an American Work-Force and Employment Expert, but an expert on the veteran struggle. Based on my experience and observations across America’s work-force, it’s no wonder to me why most Americans are so absolutely miserable, or even suicidal. Without God I certainly would have ended my life several times by now: 1.) after giving up on a military career facing a stale economy with no money, and 3.) as a transitioning veteran-civilian experiencing mostly failure, disappointment, and misery for nearly eight years now. Praise God He has pulled me through. There’s no other reason for my hope and positivity. Maybe it’s to eventually help others experiencing the same difficulties, but I digress. Tragically, I’m here to report that employment conditions are absolutely horrendous across the board, almost unrecognizable from slavery, and the system is broke and in dire need of fixing. (If this does not describe your experience, consider yourself blessed!) First off, there’s something seriously wrong with a system when those who do all the work live in poverty working like slaves just to eat and sleep in a bed, with many now not even able to afford housing with a full-time job, while those who do virtually nothing reap all the rewards living in luxury. It’s absolutely ridiculous, and it’s wrong. However, this is the evil reality of Capitalism and things will never change until we identify & accept this. Secondly, work conditions are just terrible throughout virtually every industry. From mandatory 70+ hours, to criminally pathetic pay, to weekly mandatory unpaid detentions/days/hours, to mandatory weekends, to virtually ZERO holidays, to mandatory cancer-inducing sperm-killing cell phones without reimbursement, to mandatory transportation without reimbursement, to dangerous or unhealthy conditions (sitting down 8-10+ hours driving or staring at a computer screen daily), stuck doing the same painfully mind-numbing monotonous tasks day-in & day-out, to mandatory requirements eliminating both industry newcomers and those without money, to random/political firings, to lazy firings ( too unintelligent or impatient to train), to entire industry/chain layoffs as technology takes over, or mass lay-offs from criminal activity/criminal negligence/incompetence, to turnover rates of around 100% (trucking), to sub-human treatment (pissing on demand/verbal abuse), to thefts of last paychecks (I’ve personally been robbed of thousands of dollars by nearly half a dozen companies), to a vast majority of businesses being ran by someone who has NO BUSINESS running one (likely why 80% fail), the situation is not only just absolutely atrocious, but very, very bleak. I’ve seen entire industries comprised of desperate workers literally destroying their health just to earn a buck. Virtually zero industries have any program to help integrate the poor and/or uneducated, let alone military veterans, so virtually everyone is stuck where there at, even if it’s nowhere because they couldn’t afford schooling and have no money. The rare few organizations who do have something of a housing/training/employment program are not expanding or expandable as they are restricted by a poor and very narrow business model. Virtually every corporation cares more about making a buck than they do this country, which is why many jobs have been outsourced. And every buck we do make is ripped off by Uncle Sam who literally throws it down the drain towards interest which shouldn’t exist in the first place (debt = new age slavery), or other ridiculous expenditures, including a military which should NOT be a full-time thing -destroy evil and let soldiers get back to normal lives! It’s quite amazing what people are willing to put up with. Worst of all, somehow most everyone seems to think all the above is normal, ‘just the way things are,’ and there’s something wrong with those of us who choose not to accept this atrocious ridiculousness. None of this should be normal! Life is what we choose to make of it! I, for one, refuse to accept this status-quo. All of which brings me to the most important revelation of my experiences; there is a God who cares about me (us individually), and He is good!
Almost unbelievably, the crazy and amazing reality for me is that much of my experience (between 34 companies/organization) was acquired after randomly relocating thousands of miles away, several times (from Ohio to California to Florida), into a strange city, not knowing anyone, with no money, no phone, and no transportation, just a backpack, my Bible, and God in my heart, literally throwing myself into deep holes which only God could have pulled me out of. And pull me out wonderfully God did so that in each case, in no time at all, I was working multiple jobs (7 at one time in California), with owned beautiful transportation, rent-free living, and the love of a beautiful and sweet woman. However, the journey has been anything but easy, and due to a recently evolved spiritual and intellectual maturity, I’m now forced to carve my own seemingly impossible way.
God knows I have tried to fit into a ‘normal,’ or any, job. How many can boast employment opportunities with 70 companies/organizations? How many could have picked themselves up half as many times? 70 just happens to be the number I finally decided it’s time to figure something else out. I’m just not a corporate sheep-drone, and I value freedom, health, and life more than paper/materialism. To be clear, I’ve NEVER been fired for performance. My work ethic never lets anyone outwork me, and I’m always there, first in last out. There’s a reason I was filling an E-5 slot as an Army team-leader in record time. Most opportunities ended for me either due to relocations or because I walked away. The ‘issue’ has been that I refuse to tolerate verbal abuse, I refuse to be miserable, and I refuse to destroy my body or health for little green paper. Life should not revolve around work! I would rather be poor, healthy, and happy, than have money while miserably destroying my health. How many have dedicated their lives towards companies or cities only to be eventually screwed over either right before retirement because the company went bankrupt or laid you off for one reason or another, or after retirement because the company/city went bankrupt (my neighbor is one victim) due to criminal negligence or technological developments? How many more near retirement are likely to be laid off due to technology taking over entire industries? Transportation, Cashiers, and Banks are all soon to be automated, and these industries employ tens of millions in America.
My recent evolution of mind leaves me in an even worse pickle now because I now also refuse to A.) pee on demand, B.) pay for a cancer-inducer (cell phones) strapped to my hip at some strangers beckon call, and C.) pay for transportation, which is always a money-hog, just so I can work, just so I can afford the transportation, while paying half a dozen unconstitutional taxes just to exercise my God given freedom to travel, in my property along public roads no less –which, even worse, is also patrolled by Nazi-thugs who are likely to randomly harass, steal, kidnap, and even kill me for no reason at all (it happens!). To submit myself to this slavery would be insanity. 
Is not my God King? It would certainly appear so. Despite the overwhelming odds against me, while many in the same boat commit suicide by the dozens DAILY, not only am I still here, but I’m living better than most, so much so that I don’t even have to work. Not to brag, but I eat like a King, I have zero bills or expenses, I’m averaging 45+ days of paid vacations annually, including paid trips to Europe and elsewhere, and most would envy my women, rides, and current home. Not that I deserve any of it, I absolutely do not. This isn’t about pointing a finger at me, it’s about pointing a finger at God. I'm living proof that ‘with God, all things are possible.’ The fact that God has given me, not one, but two, potentially multi-million dollar books about to launch is also a great consolation prize.

5 Great Emergency Roof Repair Tips Emergency Roof Repairs in a Nutshell One thing to keep in mind when you’re doing emergency roof repairs is that they’re not a one stop solution. You can’t just throw some sealant on it and call it a day. More often than not, emergency roof repairs are a temporary fix that buys you time to get a professional to fix those holes. With that in mind, here are a few of our great emergency roof repair tips to ensure that you can buy as much time as possible. Avoid Doing The Emergency Roof Repair In Horrible Weather We cannot stress enough how reckless it is to go up on your roof in the middle of bad weather. You could end up blown off the roof because of strong winds, or get hit by lightning if you’re particularly unlucky. Either way, you’d be in a lot of pain or worse. So simply put a bucket or two under the leaks and wait until the weather clears up. Have The Right Tools and Materials For The Emergency Roof Repair If you’re planning to fix that leak with a wad of chewed bubblegum or duct tape, then you’re doing it wrong. Your top priority when it comes to doing roof repair and maintenance is to ensure that you don’t cause any damage yourself. Having the wrong tools and materials will cause more trouble than the damage itself in the long run so make sure you have the right ones in the first place. Make Sure To Inspect Your Roof You might think that the leak directly over your carpet is coming from a hole directly over your carpet. However, that tends to not be the case as the water could flow from another source. Check the outside of your roof for any clear holes and use a hose to directly identify those leaks. Your Roof Isn’t The Only Thing You Should Be Aware Of You should also make sure to check other signs that there could be a different source of a leak. The biggest example here are water stains along your walls. Keep an eye out for these and follow the source to ensure that you’re plugging up the right leak first.
COST How Much Does It Cost To Emergency Repair A Roof? Typical Range: $353 - $1,436 Roof Repair Cost Emergency Roof Repair Service near Las Vegas NV: The national average roof repair cost is $888, with most homeowners spending between $353 and $1,436. Most common small roof repairs cost between $150 and $400. Labor runs around $45 to $75 per hour. Roofing professionals should handle any large or complicated jobs. If you have any doubts about your ability to complete the job safely, call several contractors and collect quotes. Roof Leak Repair Costs A leaking roof typically costs anywhere from $10 to $120 for a simple fix. Luckily, it is possible for homeowners to repair some issues on their own. Here are some common leaks and the usual DIY cost to repair them: Issue Cost ● Cracked Flashing $20 ● Broken or Missing Shingles $30+ ● Cracked Vent Booting $10-$20 ● Ice Dams $50-$120 ● Skylight Leaks $25-$80 ● Clogged Gutters $0
Roof Repair Cost Calculator ● National Average $888 ● Typical Range $353 - $1,436 ● Low End - High End $150 - $5,531 Cost data is based on actual project costs as reported by 56,723 HomeAdvisor members. Average cost to repair a roof is $875 or $150 to $5,000 Emergency Roof Repair Service near Las Vegas NV: Maintaining a sound roof tops the list of crucial home repairs. It keeps your home interior warm and dry and protects it from the elements. If you notice damage or signs of wear, take action right away. Otherwise, you may need to pay the price to have your roof replaced. How to Fix Common Causes of Leaks Cracked flashing: Flashing is the metal strip that creates a water-resistant barrier between joints. Metal can crack or corrode from the page or deteriorated sealant. To fix, gently pry up the material and remove nails. Nail a new strip in place and reseal. Broken or missing shingles: High winds can break or remove shingles. If broken, lift the shingle with a pry bar until the nails holding it pump up. Gently remove nails and old shingles. Replace with a new one and nail in place. Cracked vent booting: Vent booting is a gasket used to seal roof vents. To repair, cut away the old boot with a knife. Install the new one over the vent and under the shingles. Secure with nails and seal with caulk. Ice dams: If snow melt on your roof refreezes, it can create ice dams that hold snow to your roof. The weight can cause damage. Use a roof rake to fix it and remove the first four feet of snow from the roof edge. Then use ice melt products per manufacturer's instructions. Consider investing in a roof heat cable to prevent future issues. Skylight leaks: Skylights can trap water and the frame seals can crack and form leaks. If there’s a problem, clean off debris and repair cracks with clear silicone sealant. Clogged gutters: Clean these out properly to prevent water from pooling up. Otherwise, clogged gutters will prevent rainwater from running off efficiently.
Other Common Roof Repairs and Costs Emergency Roof Repair Service near Las Vegas NV: Anything that is exposed to the elements can suffer damage. Here are some areas that many people miss during their own inspection: Garage Roof Repair Costs The cost to replace a garage roof is about $1,500. Prices for garage roof repairs are subjective depending on the damage and materials used. In general, you can expect to pay a bit less for garage roof fixes than for regular roof repairs due to the smaller square footage. Fascia and Soffits Repairs The average cost to repair fascia and soffits is $3,300. Fascia is available in wood or PVC and costs around $10 to $30 per 8-foot board. Soffit panels cost around $20 for a 12-foot board. Fascia and soffit are more than just decorative edging and an enclosed overhang. It protects the roof structure from the elements. Fascia is vertical trim that protects your trusses. Soffit runs horizontally and is an attractive place for insects and small animals. Deterioration is fairly easy to see and can cause problems with your gutters. Repairing Roof Trusses Roof trusses cost $1.50 to $4.50 per square foot. These are the main structures that support your roof. Leaks often run along the trusses before dripping down onto your ceiling, so be sure to inspect this area for damage. If your truss is sagging or moldy or if you have any doubts, call a roofer for an inspection. Some molds are dangerous, if not lethal, to inhale. The repair cost for trusses is difficult to estimate as damage varies quite a bit. If your roof truss is so badly damaged that repair is impossible, replacing them can cost thousands of dollars. Be sure to check them out thoroughly! Roof Gutters Emergency Roof Repair Service near Las Vegas NV: Cleaning your gutters isn't the most glamorous job. It can be time-consuming and messy. However, this job is one of the simplest things you can do to keep your roof protected, otherwise: They can trap water and deteriorate the fascia, the trusses, the underlayment and can start to fall apart themselves. They leak or fall away from the house and allow water to pool up around your foundation. It costs only $2 to $4 to patch gutter holes with a tube of roofing cement and a patch. The patch material must be the same material as the gutter to prevent corrosion, which can occur between different metals. Otherwise, you may need to pay the cost to install or replace gutters that are broken or sagging so that runoff can safely leave your roof.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What are the signs a roof needs to be replaced? Leaks, missing or torn shingles, loose flashings, excessive shingle granules in gutters, and ceiling spots can signal roof problems. Age is another indicator; if your roof is 20 years old, it could be at the end of its lifespan.
My roof is leaking. Do I need to have it completely replaced? Not necessarily. Our crews can often make repairs to extend the life of a roof that is otherwise in good condition. However, if a roof is demonstrating many symptoms of age and wear, replacement may be the only option.
How do I decide which roofing material to use? Choosing which type of roof is right for you will depend upon numerous factors, including your budget, taste and needs. Before making your choice, consider the lifecycle cost of your roofing material. Some materials, although initially more expensive, require less maintenance and have a longer life expectancy than others. An asphalt shingle roof might last 20 years, but a metal roof can last more than 50 and might be more cost-effective in the long run.
How do I know if I have hail damage to my roof? You may be able to see severe hail strikes from the ground, but most often hail damage is not visible to the untrained eye. If you've experienced hail in your area, call Brown Roofing to schedule a professional inspection.
What is an ice dam? Ice dams are formed by the thawing and freezing of melted snow at the eaves. The ice dam can force water up and under shingles, causing leaks. In areas where winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, ice dams can cause serious and expensive damage to a roof and to the structure of a home.
How long do asphalt shingles last? Shingles come in different grades. The better the grade, the longer the life expectancy, which can range from 15 to more than 40 years.
What is the lifespan of a metal roof? New alloys and coatings make metal roofing panels more durable, with extended life cycles that exceed those of shingles or shakes. Today's metal roofs can be expected to last at least 50 years.
How long will it take to replace my roof? Most residential roofing jobs can be completed in a single day. If a roof takes more than one day, we clean and secure the site at the end of each day and take care to protect any vulnerable areas from the weather.
Will you clean up after my roofing project? Yes. At the end of the job, we conduct a thorough clean-up and walk-through. You approve final cleaning upon completion, and we won't leave until you are happy!

 5 Great Emergency Roof Repair Tips
Emergency Roof Repairs in a Nutshell
One thing to keep in mind when you’re doing emergency roof repairs is that they’re not a one stop solution. You can’t just throw some sealant on it and call it a day. More often than not, emergency roof repairs are a temporary fix that buys you time to get a professional to fix those holes. With that in mind, here are a few of our great emergency roof repair tips to ensure that you can buy as much time as possible.
Avoid Doing The Emergency Roof Repair In Horrible Weather
We cannot stress enough how reckless it is to go up on your roof in the middle of bad weather. You could end up blown off the roof because of strong winds, or get hit by lightning if you’re particularly unlucky. Either way, you’d be in a lot of pain or worse. So simply put a bucket or two under the leaks and wait until the weather clears up.
Have The Right Tools and Materials For The Emergency Roof Repair
If you’re planning to fix that leak with a wad of chewed bubblegum or duct tape, then you’re doing it wrong. Your top priority when it comes to doing roof repair and maintenance is to ensure that you don’t cause any damage yourself. Having the wrong tools and materials will cause more trouble than the damage itself in the long run so make sure you have the right ones in the first place.
Make Sure To Inspect Your Roof
You might think that the leak directly over your carpet is coming from a hole directly over your carpet. However, that tends to not be the case as the water could flow from another source. Check the outside of your roof for any clear holes and use a hose to directly identify those leaks.
Your Roof Isn’t The Only Thing You Should Be Aware Of
You should also make sure to check other signs that there could be a different source of a leak. The biggest example here are water stains along your walls. Keep an eye out for these and follow the source to ensure that you’re plugging up the right leak first.

Emergency Roof Repair Service near McAllen TX: Maintaining a sound roof tops the list of crucial home repairs. It keeps your home interior warm and dry and protects it from the elements. If you notice damage or signs of wear, take action right away. Otherwise, you may need to pay the price to have your roof replaced.
How to Fix Common Causes of Leaks
Cracked flashing: Flashing is the metal strip that creates a water-resistant barrier between joints. Metal can crack or corrode from the page or deteriorated sealant. To fix, gently pry up the material and remove nails. Nail a new strip in place and reseal.
Broken or missing shingles: High winds can break or remove shingles. If broken, lift the shingle with a pry bar until the nails holding it pump up. Gently remove nails and old shingles. Replace with a new one and nail in place.
Cracked vent booting: Vent booting is a gasket used to seal roof vents. To repair, cut away the old boot with a knife. Install the new one over the vent and under the shingles. Secure with nails and seal with caulk.
Ice dams: If snow melt on your roof refreezes, it can create ice dams that hold snow to your roof. The weight can cause damage. Use a roof rake to fix it and remove the first four feet of snow from the roof edge. Then use ice melt products per manufacturer's instructions. Consider investing in a roof heat cable to prevent future issues.
Skylight leaks: Skylights can trap water and the frame seals can crack and form leaks. If there’s a problem, clean off debris and repair cracks with clear silicone sealant.
Clogged gutters: Clean these out properly to prevent water from pooling up. Otherwise, clogged gutters will prevent rainwater from running off efficiently.
 Other Common Roof Repairs and Costs
Emergency Roof Repair Service near McAllen TX: Anything that is exposed to the elements can suffer damage. Here are some areas that many people miss during their own inspection:
Garage Roof Repair Costs
The cost to replace a garage roof is about $1,500. Prices for garage roof repairs are subjective depending on the damage and materials used. In general, you can expect to pay a bit less for garage roof fixes than for regular roof repairs due to the smaller square footage.
Fascia and Soffits Repairs
The average cost to repair fascia and soffits is $3,300. Fascia is available in wood or PVC and costs around $10 to $30 per 8-foot board. Soffit panels cost around $20 for a 12-foot board.
Fascia and soffit are more than just decorative edging and an enclosed overhang. It protects the roof structure from the elements. Fascia is vertical trim that protects your trusses. Soffit runs horizontally and is an attractive place for insects and small animals. Deterioration is fairly easy to see and can cause problems with your gutters.
Repairing Roof Trusses
Roof trusses cost $1.50 to $4.50 per square foot. These are the main structures that support your roof. Leaks often run along the trusses before dripping down onto your ceiling, so be sure to inspect this area for damage.
If your truss is sagging or moldy or if you have any doubts, call a roofer for an inspection. Some molds are dangerous, if not lethal, to inhale. The repair cost for trusses is difficult to estimate as damage varies quite a bit. If your roof truss is so badly damaged that repair is impossible, replacing them can cost thousands of dollars. Be sure to check them out thoroughly!
Roof Gutters
Emergency Roof Repair Service near McAllen TX: Cleaning your gutters isn't the most glamorous job. It can be time-consuming and messy. However, this job is one of the simplest things you can do to keep your roof protected, otherwise:
They can trap water and deteriorate the fascia, the trusses, the underlayment and can start to fall apart themselves. They leak or fall away from the house and allow water to pool up around your foundation.
It costs only $2 to $4 to patch gutter holes with a tube of roofing cement and a patch. The patch material must be the same material as the gutter to prevent corrosion, which can occur between different metals. Otherwise, you may need to pay the cost to install or replace gutters that are broken or sagging so that runoff can safely leave your roof.
 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What are the signs a roof needs to be replaced?
Leaks, missing or torn shingles, loose flashings, excessive shingle granules in gutters, and ceiling spots can signal roof problems. Age is another indicator; if your roof is 20 years old, it could be at the end of its lifespan.
 My roof is leaking. Do I need to have it completely replaced?
Not necessarily. Our crews can often make repairs to extend the life of a roof that is otherwise in good condition. However, if a roof is demonstrating many symptoms of age and wear, replacement may be the only option.
 How do I decide which roofing material to use?
Choosing which type of roof is right for you will depend upon numerous factors, including your budget, taste and needs. Before making your choice, consider the lifecycle cost of your roofing material. Some materials, although initially more expensive, require less maintenance and have a longer life expectancy than others. An asphalt shingle roof might last 20 years, but a metal roof can last more than 50 and might be more cost-effective in the long run.
 How do I know if I have hail damage to my roof?
You may be able to see severe hail strikes from the ground, but most often hail damage is not visible to the untrained eye. If you've experienced hail in your area, call Brown Roofing to schedule a professional inspection.
 What is an ice dam?
Ice dams are formed by the thawing and freezing of melted snow at the eaves. The ice dam can force water up and under shingles, causing leaks. In areas where winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, ice dams can cause serious and expensive damage to a roof and to the structure of a home.
 How long do asphalt shingles last?
Shingles come in different grades. The better the grade, the longer the life expectancy, which can range from 15 to more than 40 years.
 What is the lifespan of a metal roof?
New alloys and coatings make metal roofing panels more durable, with extended life cycles that exceed those of shingles or shakes. Today's metal roofs can be expected to last at least 50 years.
 How long will it take to replace my roof?
Most residential roofing jobs can be completed in a single day. If a roof takes more than one day, we clean and secure the site at the end of each day and take care to protect any vulnerable areas from the weather.
 Will you clean up after my roofing project?
Yes. At the end of the job, we conduct a thorough clean-up and walk-through. You approve final cleaning upon completion, and we won't leave until you are happy!

An asphalt shingle roof might last 20 years, but a metal roof can last more than 50 and might be more cost-effective in the long run.
 How do I know if I have hail damage to my roof?
You may be able to see severe hail strikes from the ground, but most often hail damage is not visible to the untrained eye. If you've experienced hail in your area, call Brown Roofing to schedule a professional inspection.
 What is an ice dam?
Ice dams are formed by the thawing and freezing of melted snow at the eaves. The ice dam can force water up and under shingles, causing leaks. In areas where winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, ice dams can cause serious and expensive damage to a roof and to the structure of a home.
 How long do asphalt shingles last?
Shingles come in different grades. The better the grade, the longer the life expectancy, which can range from 15 to more than 40 years.
 What is the lifespan of a metal roof?
New alloys and coatings make metal roofing panels more durable, with extended life cycles that exceed those of shingles or shakes. Today's metal roofs can be expected to last at least 50 years.
 How long will it take to replace my roof?
Most residential roofing jobs can be completed in a single day. If a roof takes more than one day, we clean and secure the site at the end of each day and take care to protect any vulnerable areas from the weather.
 Will you clean up after my roofing project?
Yes. At the end of the job, we conduct a thorough clean-up and walk-through. You approve final cleaning upon completion, and we won't leave until you are happy!

ELECTRIC BLANKET
Tumblr media
Electric covers are extraordinary for chilly climate atmospheres where warming your whole house or even a room doesn't bode well. Why pay a couple of bucks a day to warm your home around evening time when you can spend pennies and still keep warm with an electric cover. At the point when we were growing up, one finish of our home had no focal warming (got the chance to cherish those do it without anyone's help house expanions). 
This made for some really chilly winter evenings. We got around it by utilizing electric covers - you may see your breath in the first part of the day, however you sure rested warm for the duration of the night. Present day electric covers are exceptionally sheltered. There are electric warming covers, electric toss covers, warmed warming covers, and warmed bedding cushions. You can purchase electric covers for any bed size - ruler (California King), sovereign, twin, or full. 
The electric cover is put on head of your bed sheet and beneath any sofa or additional covers you may have. The best electric covers will warm up in under 15 minutes and all have clocks you can set to go on and off naturally. There are even double control electric covers (lord or sovereign sizes) that permit seperate settings on each side of the cover so every individual can have their agreeable warmth setting. You can ordinarily "feel" the wires in the electric cover, so you unquestionably need a sheet among you and the cover.
The top brand names in electric covers are Sunbeam, Beautyrest, Biddeford, Chattam and Wells, Martex, and Sealy. You can hope to pay about $110 for a fundamental ruler electric cover from Sunbeam however a littler twin size from Biddeford will cost just $43. We read client surveys on a few sites that sell electric covers and visited ElectricBlanket.net to perceive what the most current and best electric covers are available.
Suggested: One of the top merchants is the Sunbeam Imperial Nights Electric Heated Warming Blanket - King size ($69.95), it's machine launderable, the ComfortSet Digital Control gives you 10 warming settings. Proprietors state the 2 regulators for double temperature control work unequivocally and keep the two individuals warm throughout the night. 
Turn down the indoor regulator, turn on the Sunbeam, and set aside cash during the virus winter months. You can purchase a similar model Sunbeam as a twin ($35), full size ($50), in spite of the fact that we didn't see a sovereign size recorded for this model. The lit dial is ideal for having the option to see around evening time when the lights are off. It consequently diminishes following 60 seconds and the preheat include is truly pleasant.
Clients SAY: "I love moving into a comfortable bed - no more socks. Furthermore, I can keep my side only the temperature I need. This sweeping is a manager!"
"Moderate and warm. We've been utilizing it for over 3 months and are satisfied."
Another mainstream extravagance warming cover is the Simmons Beautyrest Worldclass electric cover for $94/sovereign. It's evaluated as perhaps the gentlest cover available and accompanies a licensed Safety Watch framework that performs 120 security checks for each second. The 10 hour shut off is the thing that clients like the best yet they likewise state the 10 temperature setting dial is anything but difficult to set and gives reliable warming for the duration of the night. Suggested: 
The Soft Heat Warming Blanket ($200 for sovereign) is a very good quality most loved and it's likewise one of only a handful scarcely any warmed covers that will keep up its unique size subsequent to being washed. The 5-year guarantee guarantees purchasers of a quality item. There are no massive wires and it is considered "The World's Safest Electric Blanket" with its Safe and Warm innovation. The low voltage non dangerous innovation on this sweeping give reliable warmth no problem areas and the double controls consequently shut off following 10 hours. Works fine with Sleep Number beds. You can peruse the whole rundown of the most well known electric covers online here
Searching for a little warmth underneath your body, at that point maybe an electric cover isn't the correct decision. Go with a warmed sleeping pad cushion for your warming needs. The Chattam and Wells Heated Mattress Pad fits all beddings up to 15" and the jumbo cushion sells for $116. Pre-warms a lot of like an electric cover and works quietly. Suggested - The Sunbeam Imperial 140-Thread-Count Polyester Cotton Blend Comfort Heated Mattress Pad is another top of the line cushion, it fits sleeping pads up to 18" profound, and highlights the double SimpliTouch dial controls for extreme in temperature control. 
There are 10 temperature settings, an auto-dimmer, and it will stop following 10 hours. It's machine launderable and arrives in a twin size too. You can peruse all the top selling warmed sleeping pad cushions online here.These are incredible developments - compact electric covers that you can take in the midst of a get-away or on an excursion. People have been contending for quite a long time about the cooling in lodgings, vehicle, and so forth. Presently ladies can go with an electric cover that effectively connects to 12 volt plugs. 12 volt electric covers are modest to power and work successfully. 
The Comfy Cruise Electric Car Blanket ($33) - made of 100% polyester downy and a 7 foot string which makes it simple to use in the rearward sitting arrangement or passenger seat of any vehicle. The capacity to plug the downy electric cover into the cigarette lighter attachment and warm up is the thing that makes these covers extraordinary. sells a marginally more affordable 12 Volt Electric Travel Blanket for $26 from RoadPro.
Electric covers can at present be a wellbeing risk if not utilized appropriately or kept in great working condition. Kindly follow some fundamental rules for wellbeing beneath:
Purchase new covers whenever the situation allows, second hand covers may not be sheltered
Peruse the makers directions cautiously
Never utilize the cover if it's wet or wrinkled
Try not to wash the electric cover except if the producer's rules state it is sheltered to do as such
Check the fitting line for any indications of wear or harm
Have a specialist check your cover like clockwork to guarantee that it is running appropriately and safe to utilize

What Do Others Think of AIMS Stress Free Trading?
Testimonials
Richard says that he has received very good suppport and that he made 120pips on his first day
Hi
As I sit here this morning reading about and watching the ‘AIMS System’, I just have to write to tell you how impressed I am with the system and the support. In my other life, I live on the west coast in the US and work what we call swing shift, which is not real conducive to trading.
I purchased your system two days ago after returning how from work which is 11.00pm out time. Since that time I have already emailed twice with questions and received answer to both. Sitting here this morning studying the blog and reading this new eBook and reading the latest response I decided to trade the system. In less than 3 hours I made 120 pips, with no add-ons. I am truly impressed and I thank you
Richard Stewart
300 pips in 45 minutes
Hi Imran
I usually dont post on forums, but I had to report that using your strategy today was amazing. I bracketed the saddle point and added on 6 more times to gain over 300 Pips in 45 minutes on the M1 chart. The red dot was present. The AO was clsoe to Zero Line and the Alligator’s mouth was open on both the M1 and M5. I trailed my stops and locked my gains and got out after the blue dot appeared. I should have exited immediately and would have gained 350 but I was stopped out for 300. Thank You for sharing this trading method.
Rick
Edmund’s tried all the indicators and got fed up, then he found this strategy
I’ve been playing Forex for 2 years. I tried thousands  of types of indicators but nothing helped .
One day I came across the images from AIMS Blog, so neat and easy to understand. I visited AIMS Blog to understand the concept behind it.
The web site stated that its so simple to trade this strategy that you could do it within 10 seconds. And that the setup needed only 3 indicators. It was hard to believe
I bought it and tried…. and my first experience was
wow! The first day on the first trade I got +40 pips
I was so happy because normally I could get only 5 – 10 pips per trade .
Oh, I tell my wife , I found my holy grail !!! from that day on , my account keeps growing !!!!
I must say thanks to them for turning me into a successful trader using a simple system.
Edmund, Malaysia
Daune grabbed 100 pips profit on his first day, Amazing!
Hello, Immy,
Well my first day in the room, 100 pips profit. Is this for real? Am I dreaming? I honestly don’t know. As I been up for what seems like all week, I think that maybe this is some sort of Forex nirvana!! I have been trying to trade successfully for many years with the same result ….margin call. I remember reading Bill Williams book when it first came out, but not being able to put it all together. Yet yesterday I bought a PDF (AIMS-Ebook) for 100 bucks that has given me more hope than I have had in years!!! Am I dreaming? As someone who has read most material on market behavior I am aware of how the markets move in the way that R.N. Elliot described. But how to trade it properly? That was the question. So seeing the double bottom on the 5 min. today I knew what to expect, an impulse wave, but will this 99 dollar simplistic software catch it? I seriously doubt it. Yet there it was impulse wave off the bottom then the alligator closed its mouth a blue dot appeared and the traders wet dream occurred, I caught wave 3!!!
Very clear no ambiguity just follow the rules. Immy I really don’t know if you know what you have here, but there was a gentleman in the room that was gushing over what he saw trading 5 screens and all. I completely agree with his assessment, AIMS rocks. O.K. Its only been one day, and really I don’t even know all the rules and nuances, but I am EXTREAMLY encouraged. I have a long way to go but thanks for the hope!!!
Have a great weekend,
Duane

With the appropriate care, which we will educate you about, you’ll be able to utilize the wood floor refinishing we’ve done to extend the beauty of your floor for many years to come.
How to Refinish Hardwood Floors
Hardwood floors are one of the greatest additions you can make to your home. Sure laminate and linoleum can be cheap alternatives to save you a buck on installation day, but in the long run hardwood will help your home stay beautiful without going out style and without costly renovations.  Hardwoods have been used to cover floors since there have been floors to cover. No matter how the trends change, hardwood has proven to be beautiful, popular and a great way to protect the value of your home.  
One of the greatest benefits of hardwood flooring is that you can refinish it multiple times. The benefit of refinishing your hardwood is that you get the look of brand new floors without have to do any removal or installation. Most hardwood floors can be refinished between 5 and 10 times before the integrity of the board is compromised, or so much surface material has been removed that you need to install new boards. In general, hardwood floors should be refinished about every 10 years but it depends on how much traffic they see and how often your furniture is moved.
Now let’s talk about how to refinish hardwood floors. In reality, it is as easy as sanding down your old floors and adding new polyurethane or stain to the exposed wood.  However, we’ve learned a few tricks that can really help make the job much easier.
First, make sure you prepare the area that will be refinished.  The sanding process is loud and extremely dust and the stain or top coat you put on will have some pretty intense fumes.  Because of all this, it’s a good idea to remove everything you can from the space, then seal off the area you will be refinishing. Start by removing all the furniture, window coverings, wall hangings and any doors that the wood floor passes through. Next cover any electrical sockets and attached lighting fixtures by taping plastic over them.  Lastly, make sure you’ve got good ventilation through a window and seal any door opening to make sure the dust doesn’t get to the rest of your house.
Now you’re ready to sand!  It can be tempting to try and use the small palm sander you have in the garage, but even if you have a small area to refinish it may still be worth renting a large drum sander.  Not only will this save you time, but a large sander will allow you to keep the floor much more even and flat giving you a professional look and a smooth floor. Make sure you start in an area that is inconspicuous to get the feel of the sander and always keep it moving.  Sand with the grain of the wood and start with a relatively low grit sand paper like 20 or 60 grit.  Only remove as much material from the surface as you need to remove any imperfections or old top coatings.  Once you’ve got the imperfections removed you can step up the grit until you can use a 100 or 120 grit.  This will remove the scratches and leave the surface feeling and looking smooth. Make sure you vacuum in between sanding with different grits to remove the dust as it can change the way sand paper cuts the surface.
When it comes to staining or covering your newly sanded floors make sure you vacuum everything extremely well and remove any excess dust using a tack cloth. Once you’re sure your floor is dust free, start the staining from one end of the room and move uniformly across using brush strokes with the grain.  After that all you have to do is allow the top coat to dry as the manufacturer recommends!
If you start you refinishing project you may find out your floors are actually not able to be refinished.  If the boards are already too thin or you find significant water damage or buckling you may unfortunately have to replace your floors instead of refinishing them.

Palablog: OB56+OB57
Hoo nelly, fellas.  OB56 + OB57 were absolute doozies for me, and I mean that in the best way possible.  I'm sorry I haven't responded to asks or been updating much lately, things just got busy and then I was running a lot of hardware upgrades so I missed a chunk of the OB56 patch cycle, and ... yeah.
I'll get the Skye gushing for OB56/OB57 out of the way now:  These two patches have been significant quality of life improvements for me as a Skye main and all across the board.  I think the art team knocked it out of the park with both the Samurai Ash skin (I didn't call it Ronin for a reason, will explain!) and Kunoichi Skye.  We saw the entrance of the Skye Mastery skins, too.  OB56 brought us the 1800->2000 HP boost as well as Retribution finally getting the nerfs it's needed since Lex was released, and OB57 gave us the reworks to Debilitate and Surprise Attack.
In a weird way, Skye having that extra 200 HP made something of a negative impact on me early on.  I was so used to the audio cues for low HP at 1800 that I'd overplay my hand and spent the first day or two fumbling around getting my butt handed to me.  I've gotten used to it over time; the tweaks to her damage dealing and range made my life a whole lot easier and has enabled me to (in some cases) actually work around people that actually buy Illuminate.
I still haven't tried Surprise Attack, but I'm actually somewhat curious to now.  At first I thought, "just slapping more damage onto it will not fix the fact that it is an objectively terrible legendary," but I gave it more thought and gave Raynday's video on SA a watch.  Now, he did amazing with it, but he also had a team comp and players on his side that allowed him to have some of that pressure aleviated from him.  Similarly, our test sample for his praise was one match-- I want to give it more hands-on time, but this means I'm probably going to have to build a deck that balances some of Skye's mandatory cards with cooldown cards and find what works right for me.
Is it weird I'm actually kind of looking forward to trying Surprise Attack at all?
Admittedly, I'm going to miss the innate cauterize effect of Poison Bolts, but if you think about it, the reworks to Decrepify allow it to actually be even more punishing, even more dangerous than it ever was before.  Decrepify is a card that rarely leaves my Debilitate decks with Skye, and now it's more than likely going to be a cornerstone for the Twilight Assassin.
With Strix's introduction, it did highlight issues that Skye still has with cards, but I can understand if the team wants to pump the brakes on further Skye adjustments for the time being:  Healing Vapors is still essentially a useless card at 1-2, mediocre at best at 3, and just not worth the value at 4.  Comperable cards on different champions grant way more value at almost any level, from Androxus' Abyss Walker healing a burst of 40/80/120/160 to Lex's Fortitude healing 25/50/75/100 damage across 1.5s, and then they have access to healing items such as Life Rip-- and Life Rip is essentially the only form of feasable long-term self-sustain that Skye has available to her.
I'm still trying really hard to Devil's Advocate myself on how to justify Slip Away still existing in the form it does.  Ninja and Dissipate both serve the purpose for stealth speed boosts, and I personally feel Victory Rush is one of the best cards in the game.  Again, personally, I'd rather it be "gain damage reduction while in stealth" at the same values it has right now.  Of course, it was easier to justify conditional up-to 20% DR when Skye was at 1800 HP.
OB56 brought a lot of exciting changes in general:  Ash was given an additional ult charge on Rally Here, arguably her weakest legendary.  Admittedly, if I know a team is going to try to maintain point presence and stay with me, I will play the hell out of Rally Here; the damage boost makes ally Ruckus players or even a good Fernando or Ying turn into crazy point-dominating monsters.  Buck's Bulk Up was given an extra boost-- and I'll be honest, I'm glad.  I sometimes feel bad for the guy, because I rarely ever see him played anymore.
Cassie's Exaction was given a light bop on the nose in OB56 though the thing I hear complained about the most is that her dodge roll is almost always up as long as you can land one shot-- and that's honestly not too hard given how much faster her projectiles move these days.  Jenos' HP reduction was warranted and welcome; I love the guy and I play him pretty hard as a support, but he was just too hard to kill.  I barely felt the adjustments to Stellar Wind or Astral Mark, I run a CD reduction build on him and just keep churning heals.
Jenos does present an interesting situation that I hope gets looked at:  Though negative status effects are cleared from her when she goes into her ice block, Astral Mark will persist.  Essentially, if Evie is running the Reprieve Legendary card, she will get all of that healing as well as the healing from Jenos, and all of that healing will just keep going right when she comes flying out of it.  In essence, this allows even a mediocre-at-best Evie to be an absolute immortal monster.
Retribution got nerfed hard in OB56, and I could not be happier.  I'm actually a bit surprised, if only because I was hoping for some QOL tweaks, or one or two touches, I didn't expect such a drastic swat on the ability.  OB57 brought some interesting changes to Lex, and slowly he's coming to the point where I feel like he could potentially be fun to play as as much as against.
The semi-auto was a good change, I feel, but after a few days I started to see the problems with Lex's new Magnums:  The ammo count is too high, the accuracy drop from rapid firing is too low, and it does nothing to address the problem of Lex having In Pursuit, still arguably one of the most devastating abilities in the game.
"Feral, you're mad.  You just hate Lex.  1050 damage over 1.5s is nothing!"
I mean yeah I do dislike Lex's kit, but you can't argue with the fact that as he is right now, Lex can pop In Pursuit for unerring auto-aim accuracy for 1.5s at long range while Combat Sliding in at a target I dare say farther and faster than even Cassie's roll, then hammering 10 shots out for long-range *and* burst potential that comes dangerously close to Point Blank Skye.
In essence, I just hope that In Pursuit's functionality is given a second glance now that he's got these devastating new Magnums.  I also would like to see if it's possible to get the rapid fire inaccuracy increased a bit, because gosh.  dang.
Lian is an interesting case; I make claim about how much I hate auto-aim on Lex but I mind it slightly less on Lian.  I really wish I could better explain it, but something just feels "off" about her kit-- maybe it realy does have something to do with her being able to have two auto-aims?  I'll have to ruminate on it more.
and the grover puns man wtf arrghghhggh
Skipping ahead a little, the Ying changes are great.  Back as recently as 3 patches ago, I was on the train that Ying needed to have Lifelike boosted by 5-10% to help address her throughput, but Illusory Rift is absolutely great and the changes to her in-hand attack are almost terrifying to play against-- but in a good way, of course.
A'right, now that we've gotten this far:  It's time for Strix.
I love Strix.  Dude is insane.  His rifle feels great, offers a lot of feedback when you're firing, and it feels responsive.  His pistol does a lot to offer him some close-range gameplay, and I like that he's so polarizing (long or short range) compared to Kinessa (long or mid-range).  Flare is incredibly powerful, and I would argue almost *too* powerful-- I don't mean that this needs to be slapped hard, but definitely monitored.  They say "large radius" in his skill description, but from some light testing it looks like it's a near-100 unit radius.  I run Flare XL 3 (increases the reveal range significantly) and Overburn 3 (increases flare duration by 3s), so I'm covering a pretty massive swath of a map for about 6 seconds-- that's basically Cassie's ult without the CC/speed boost with a pretty short downtime.
I thought I'd be a little more leery of toggle stealth, but it actually works great.  I've compared Strix a lot to some Warframe friends as being like a MOBA version of Ivara, and when I say this, I mean it in the most complimentary fashion that I can possibly achieve.  Ivara is one of my favorite Warframes as her gameplay pushes for a methodical, strategy-driven focus, stealthing at opportune times, and playing to enemy awareness.
As I said earlier in regards to Skye and her sustain cards, Strix has a card, Escape Plan.  If you aren't familiar with it, if Strix is at 65% or lower health, Escape Plan will heal Strix for 100/200/300/400.  As a burst heal sustain, this is great, and arguably as good as a maxed out Abyss Walker and close to the potential of other non-legendary sustain cards for Flanks.  I really hope the team considers giving HV a rework to be closer to this; the current state of Healing Vapors makes it take too long for too little effect.  But, again, balance, and changing too much in too short of time, etc., etc. -- I can still hope, though!
And in case you didn't know, there's another one on the horizon:  PALADINS STRIKE!  A 5v5 actual MOBA-style Paladins game for Android/iOS.  The game has me excited, and I've signed up for the alpha.  I have some concerns and criticisms about the decisions the team has made for the game, however, and I'll highlight that in my next post.
edit: Made a few tweaks for clarity, going through and highlighting/emphasizing certain words.  Also forgot:
Why did I say "Samurai Ash" instead of "Ronin Ash?"  Because ... really, there's nothing about this incarnation of Ash that makes her a ronin.  She's wearing full armor and helmet, discussing honor very heavily, and carrying a flag that would signify she's actually serving a feudal lord/house, rather than being honorless.  I was kind of bummed that the only Ash/Skye interaction we got was a one-way "poison bad!!" thing from Ash that is just basically the same thing as her default voice pack.

Randonneuring on a brakeless track bike.
I never knew what a randonneur is or does till about five months back. Heck I couldn’t even pronounce the damn name. A randonneur is a chap who rides long distances unsupported within a specified time frame, with distances starting at 200km unto 1200km. A seasoned randonneur would classify a 600km brevet as “difficult”, which usually entails two nights and a day of continuous riding, the idea being to complete the course within the 40 hours time frame. Me being the chap I usually am decided do a 600km brevet, my “first” brevet, on my everyday steed, a brakeless track bike in gods own country, Kerala, aptly called the Exotic Malabar Coast 600 BRM which runs from Cochin to Payyannur along the beautiful malabar coast of Kerala, known for a lot of amazing things, of which the one that really stood was the Biryani! To me Calicut was this place I’d always heard growing up, Thallaserry was a name of a restaurant in Bangalore, Mahe was Union Territory in Kerala that I read in my geography books and Payyannur was this quaint town up in the north of Kerala which I had only heard of since my friend was from there and that they we were famous for this crazy ritualistic dance called Theyyamm and that they love repeating letters in words there. In summary this is one gorgeous route to ride not to mention I rode an entire night in the rain, torrential thunderstorm type of rains. It’s monsoon season in this part of the land. That being said, this was going to be my only other long distance ride since my ride to Goa this New Years on the same track bike, difference being, the ride to Goa was a 600 kilometre trip spanning three days covering a little more than 200 kilometres each day with ample rest (in lodges) and an awesome ride partner and friend. While this time around, I was doing a solo, 600 kilometre trip (brevet) which was timed event with a time limit of 40 hours on an unknown route (though I am originally from Kerala).Unlike my Goa ride, I was using an easier gear ratio of 48x19, which meant that I’d have to spin more (more pedal rotations) as compared to the 48x18 to maintain a comparable average speed, based on my experience riding to Goa, I was hoping to benefit from this, I’d soon find out.
I never knew endurance riding is something I was going to get into, I mean I love riding bikes and I guess that’s the only pre requisite you need. You can basically do anything on a bike, be it commuting, racing, touring, tricks or just aimlessly riding. Riding a brevet is something else altogether, it needs a bit of preparation since you’re self supported and self sufficient, which means any sort of mechanical or biological failure, and well that’s the end of it! I had about three days to prepare for this as this was a last minute decision I made as with all my decisions. I borrowed lights, mud fenders, frame bag, saddle bag, and a drop bar from friends in Bangalore before I drove down to Kerala with my folks and my dog. Since my last training ride I did was way back in May, I decided to ride from my grandparents house in southern Kerala to Cochin which was a good 110kms, complete with hills, potholes, violent headwinds, cross winds, crazy traffic, mixed with city and highways and awesome flat sections. Training done! During the registration process the organisers and other folks there were quiet baffled when they learned this was my first brevet, more over the bike I was using had just one gear, a fixed gear and that it was brakeless, my beard length was probably secondary now. I checked into a motel nearby and had a sound nights sleep.
The first leg
Tumblr media
Started with a final few checks to my bike with the mechanic at the LBS in cochin called The Bike Store which was also the start point for the Brevet. 4PM was departure time. Since the city routes were unknown to me, my new friends asked me to stick with the guys upfront, who planned to ride out fast and hard to beat the traffic, as checkpoint 1 and 2 were within the city itself. Ride hard and ride fast we did. I stuck to the wheel of the fastest kid on the block, this young lad who I feel has a very promising career in the Indian road cycling scene. We covered around 30 kilometres in an hour and 10 minutes in the thick of Cochin’s crazy traffic. The next checkpoint was a 100kms away at Ponnani, and so had begun the solo leg of my brevet. I rode close to 85% of my ride solo, the thing is you get to ride at your own pace which I feel is a very important requirement especially when you’re participating in an endurance sport which pushes you to your limits. My ride to Ponnani was a first of many sorts, it was the first time was riding in the night for such a long distance, fully loaded and it was also the first time I did an all nighter while it rained cats, dogs and fishes! It was definitely a night of firsts. I managed to reach Ponnani within four hours of leaving my last checkpoint, which was quiet frankly a decent pace as one of the volunteers admitted. I was amazed myself. I treated myself to a sumptuous dinner of boiled rice, dal and mixed veggies at a local restaurant near the check point. Since I was still high on energy I made this a quick dinner break, complete with an Instagram update and an excellent Kattan Kappi or black coffee. 
Tumblr media
Next stop was Calicut which was a mere 70 kilometres away. I planned to reach Calicut by midnight, but that wasn’t going to happen. Little did I know the road to Calicut was 70 kilometres of potholes, narrow streets and off the grid sort of navigation through little unknown towns and villages. To top it all the rains picked up pace and I was literally caught in the middle of a thunderstorm. So here’s the thing, I love the rains, I love riding in the rain, and I hate the day after which means, cleaning my bike. So riding in the rains wasn’t much of a problem. Riding a fixie in the rains is way more comfortable and I swear way more controllable compared to a free wheeling bike as you can feel the road and thus gauge the traction off the wheels. There were sections that were pitch black with no working street lights, and since these were borrowed lights I had them in a single mode which gave me lighting of sorts such that I didn’t misjudge the sides of the roads and jeer off into the slush that was accumulating with the continuous downpour. The last 20 kilometres to Calicut we were back on the paved NH17, which fortunately/unfortunately had poor lighting, smooth roads and lots of truckers. For a brakeless city rider this wasn’t intimidating but it sure was high. A good fucking high! I would do mental computations in my head calculating distances and average speeds to my final destination by reading the milestones and check the time on my G-Shock as I did not use a Garmin for this ride. I wanted to keep the ride as equipment free as possible. Little did I realise this actually worked, and helped me with my concentration. A biker pulled up next to me and started talking to me, the rains had subsided now and was only a minute drizzle, the types you feel when you spray a perfume or something. I picked up my pace hoping that he’d understand that I want to be left alone, but he stuck to my side and started asking me questions. He turned out to be a good chap, and we spoke for the next 10 kilometres up until I reached Calicut limits. The outcome was fantastic as I had upped my pace, averaging a good 30-35km/h, and the biker was astonished for the fact that I was managing to pull off a speed like that, he was even more amazed that I was doing this on a bike with just one gear for 600 kilometres. He asked me the value and I told him it was worth 15,000 bucks, all I had to do was divide the original value by 25! Nonetheless, with the rains back I was now entering Calicut city, I asked an auto wallah for directions and here I was at checkpoint four, beach side, four hours later and drenched to my mittens! I love the beach. It gives me immense energy, just what I needed. The volunteers did a fantastic job of organising home cooked meals they had veggie options thankfully which I devoured, they they also gave a lot of inputs regarding the route, road conditions up until the turnaround point which was now just 120 odd kilometres away. This was the fastest time i had taken to complete 190 kilometres, just under 10 hours, which was record of sorts for me. I ate, rested and chatted with a couple of other riders who had reached before me which gave me  a total of 35 minutes off the bike. I did notice some of the riders were facing mechanical failures, snapped chains, slippery brakes, muck and sediment deposits on their derailleurs and of-course punctures. I had no so such issues, thankfully! Now energised I was on my way to checkpoint number five which was around 70 kilometres away at this place called Thallasery, known for its unique biryani, this route would take me via Vadakara and Mahe, as these were the waypoints I locked on to maintain my timing. It was around 0200 when I left Calicut and my objective was to reach Thallasery by 0400-0430 in the morning and reach the turnaround point by 0630-0700, thus giving me three hours of sleep by which I could hit the road by 1030. Such a wonderful plan I was thinking, except that it was still raining cats and dogs, it was pitch black with street lighting off and on, with truckers providing me three seconds of that glorious runway lights and that I was getting exhausted with every passing kilometre. I kept myself occupied with these mental math calculations to keep me focussed and awake. Believe me I suck at math, like I’m slow at calculating, and for the first time in my life, being slow to calculate actually helped! I was now going to pass Vadakara, and I remembered what the guys at Calicut told me, avoid the bypass and cut through the city. Cut through the city I did, it was like passing a ghost town, there wasn’t one soul on the street, no life absolutely. The road was like a roller coaster too, massive uphill climbs followed by rolling decents, this was just the start as the terrain was now changing from a moderately flat coastal route to hilly coastal route up until Payyannur. What I did notice entering Mahe was that being a Union Territory, the road which is also the NH17, it was littered with alcohol shops, I mean that one street would put Bangalore to shame! I breezed by Mahe just like every other town I was passing by, the rains had subsided by now,  it was funny, as though the gods were joking around with us. I was now nearing my next check point of Thalleserry, and I was well past my initially calculated time of arriving there by 0400-0430. I finally did reach Thallasery by 0515. On arriving the volunteers were fast asleep inside their car which was this gorgeous sea facing hill. I woke them up, stocked up on chocolates, water and was back on the road within 20 minutes. I was now less than 60 kilometres away from the turnaround point at Payyannur. Back to mental maths again, usually on a ride to the outskirts, I’d average around 30km/h which means two hours to the turn around point, so I gave myself time until 0800 to reach which would still give me two hours of sleep as I wanted to get back on the road by 1030. I was satisfied with the way things were panning out. My next point of interest was Kannur or Cannanore, I think that’s the place St Francis landed in India and brought Christianity to the sub continent, I was passing by some historical places on this route, but all I cared was to reach Payyannur and take a nice warm shower and sleep! By now my left knee started to pain. I had this pain while riding to Goa as well. Little did I know that this pain on my knee was going to hit a new threshold. I guess the pain was bound to happen, I mean I’ve ridden 260kms with no chance of coasting, basically I earned every kilometre by rotating my crank 46,000 times until now. By the time I reached Kannur, the sun had risen and I was now seeing people on the road, it’s so refreshing when you see life on the streets. I was watching the TV show last man on earth and I kind of know what he meant by seeing life on the streets. I had to do something about my knee pain, with the pharmacies all closed I was on the look out for a hospital en route. I finally found a hospital on my way out of Kannur and hurried to the pharmacy to get myself one of those pain reliving sprays. I didn’t know that if you spray this on a sweaty body it burns like it would burn Count Dracula! After a few minutes of jumping around I was back on the bike and, now just wanting to reach the turn around point at Payyannur. The organisers and the volunteers had told us riders about a detour via the inner roads that would bring us right back on NH17 onto the turnaround point which was a hotel on the highway, which could help us by shaving of 3kms and save us the cruelty of the hilly sections up ahead, on the contrary I missed out the left turn which was long gone as I had now stumbled across another rider who told me the left turn was up ahead instead. I took my phone out and swung right into Google Maps exploring the options I had, there was a left turn ahead, but and it was through the insides which I wasn’t sure of, I took it nonetheless as I was saving a good 3kms to reach my destination. The next 45 minutes was one of the most toughest times of my life, with an aching knee, a busted ass, exhausted and 300kms into my ride, I was navigating through some crazy hills and potholed ridden roads. I was now looking for a store that had some vaseline, as my ass was now sore. I remember seeing a board that said six kilometres to Payyannur, my mental maths was now telling me that’s the distance to MG road from home, 20 minutes more and you’re there, finally I see the board I’ve been looking for, Green Park Hotel, 500 metres away! Man the happiness I felt! Once I was 50 metres I could see the volunteers waiting with smiling faces directing me to get into the hotel. I finally reached at 0805. One of the guys helped me find my way into the convention hall which the organisers turned into a makeshift sleeping space for the riders, complete with a mattress, cooling fans, pillows and a nice warm blanket. I found my way to the showers, cleaned up, got into a set of new clothes and jumped right into bed. I set my alarm to 1030, with a planned departure by 1045. And boy did I pass out! Never have I slept so well!
The return
1030 the alarm goes off, I did a few calculations again and decided to sleep for another 1 hour, yeah right! I finally crawled out of bed only by 1200 after much hesitation. The three and a half hours of sleep was much needed. I later sync’d up with another rider who is a legend of sorts in the randonneuring business, and we left the hotel together in search of a lunch spot to carb up for the return journey to cochin, another 313 kilometres. I had 19 hours and 30 minutes until cutoff. Easy, I thought. We found a restaurant near by and belted a veggie thali that costed a mere 70 bucks! As we got back on the road we bid adieu as I really needed vaseline for the arse. Lubed up I now continued on the regular NH17 route, not the one I’d taken earlier in the morning, which had the most horrendous roads and an utter waste of time. This section did have some serious climbs, but hey nothing like a “bit” of climbing to start the day with. I find myself pushing much harder on climbs than on flats for obvious reasons, you’re on a fixed gear bike, with no option to gear down, so the only option is to push your ass off the seat and climb that hill. I love that feeling, and once on top, the best part is descending. Since I was on a 48x19, I was spinning out on a few sections, and that’s when we fixie fuck boys do something called “hill bombing”, get your feet of the pedals and just let the bike fly down. Deceleration is controlled by smashing your shoes above the tyre and burning rubber and synthetic. The feeling is surreal! I did get a boat load of stares by passerby’s, a few of them were quiet amused at the sight of a bearded guy going mental on a bike that they were recording this sight. I wonder if there’s any way of sourcing those videos. 20 kilometres of rolling hills and descents did an amazing job of setting the tempo for the rest of the ride, my legs were now in jello mode. However the searing pain which had started to develop on my knees was still there, in-fact my right knee started to develop this pain as well now. I was in for a beating as I still had close to 280 kilometres until Cochin. I had noticed a kid on a MTB up ahead, but he didn’t look like he was a part of the brevet, as I couldn't see his bib number, nonetheless this kid decided to draft behind me, which got me thinking why would he do that. I mean I was on this fixed gear bike battling it out on the climbs and here’s this kid riding off my wheel, which in a way helped me, as I started pushing really hard. The poor chap must have clung of for a few minutes before he dropped back. I didn’t stop pushing though, I passed by four other riders before entering Kannur, I was making a good progress. My next checkpoint was back in Calicut which was now 90 kilometres away. I planned to pit stop at Thallasery which was around 25 kilometres away to grab some of their famous biryani and get some rest. While leaving Kannur I found a tender coconut seller, it’s funny that I didn’t see anybody else selling tender till now. The guy was kind enough to give me route advice and told me to take an alternative route bypassing the highway which went through two small towns instead which would give a 3km advantage basically. Apparently couple of other cyclist had passed by him earlier this morning and he’d given them the same advice. Being a Sunday, these small towns were empty, hardly any one in sight, which was good, as there was virtually no traffic. In an event like this, every kilometre shaved off adds so much additional time over the long run. I had plans of reaching Thallasery by 1500, the time was around 1400 already. I had to step up pace. It was only now that I was able to yonder at the beauty of the Malabar! Rolling hills along the coast of the Arabian sea dotted with coconut tress on both sides, the sounds of the ocean which was drowned out last night because of the incessant rains, I was now witnessing the beauty. In an endurance event like this, I feel one of the key requisites is that you appreciate the beauty of your surrounding around you, it adds a whole new dimension to your ride. Every time I peeked into the horizon, I would temporarily feel free, thoughts of the remaining 250 kilometres would disappear and the searing pain on my knees would suddenly feel painless. These were the moments that kept me going. I finally arrived at Thallasery at quarter past three. 
Tumblr media
I found a sea facing restaurant adjacent to the checkpoint I’d stopped last night, and ordered a veggie thallasery special. Took a few snaps of the bike facing the sea and I was back on the road within 20 minutes. It’s funny how fast a hungry, and tired human can gulp down a massive plate of biryani, even the waiters were looking at me in astonishment. I was now 70 kilometres away from Calicut. I planned to reach the checkpoint by 1800 effectively, but that for obvious reasons was not going to happen. By the time I reached Vadakara, my knees were literally felt they were going to pop open, I had to stop and get a painkiller, else this wasn’t going to work. The same quiet ghost town from last night was now bustling full of people. I found a pharmacy right next to the local government hospital and explained my situation to the pharmacist. He gave me four tabs and told me not to pop four within a days time, and that I should space the consumption of each tablet by a minimum of six hours. He also wished me luck and was thoroughly impressed with what I was doing. Within minutes of popping the first tab, I could feel a sense of relief. Once on the highway I noticed that traffic movement had slowed down. I mean the last thing you’d expect is a traffic jam on a single lane highway! Traffic jam it was. By the time I got myself out to the front, I had already lost 30 minutes of precious time, I couldn’t figure what caused the traffic jam, as there was no accident, I’m guessing however there must have been a VIP/minister going past one of those small towns out there. I was also quiet surprised that my bike was into shape, despite the muck on the chain from last nights downpour and the lack of lubrication, she was still moving, not as smooth though. No flats till now. I had well crossed 1800 and still no sign of Calicut, I pulled over next to a traffic cop and asked him how far was Calicut, his explanation was quiet simple, cross three bridges and take the right to head no to Calicut Beach Road. It’s always a love hate feeling when approaching a checkpoint, you’re happy for the fact that you’re so near, and you’re mad that despite being so near, you’re still not there yet, that sense of frustration keeps working against you and I swear that battle is worse than the physical battle. I usually get on to my drops and go full gas at moments like this, and that’s exactly what I did. I remember flying past these two riders who I’d later meet at the Calicut checkpoint and would end up riding with them until Ponnani. I finally did reach Calicut at 1900, one hour behind schedule. I had 13 hours and 173 kilometres to my destination and final checkpoint.
Sufferfest
Tumblr media
The Urban Dictionary describes sufferfest as, “A workout or race in the arena of endurance sports that involves prolonged suffering on the part of all who participate”. I believe my sufferfest was only about to start now. In the next 20 kilometres to be precise. The two riders who I’d passed by and later met at the Calicut checkpoint were now riding partners, since they were local Calicut lads I decided to stick with them to guide me out of the city which is a disaster to ride in on a Sunday. We made a quick pitstop to carb up yet again at a local restaurant. By the time we left Calicut it was 2030, they were good company talking and telling me all about the routes and their experience so far on this brevet. They were mighty impressed with the fact that I was on a fixed gear bike, that too brakeless and were in disbelief when I told them this was my first brevet. The ride out from Calicut is quiet confusing, in-fact the previous night when I found myself self directing myself into Calicut, it all seemed so different now. It felt like a weird LSD trip in all honesty. I had no recollection of the number of turns, I had taken through the narrow winding roads that led to me to Calicut, all I remember was the road to Ponnani was atrocious and rigged with pot holes. I was ready for the challenge. Once we got onto the highway we bid adieu and I increased my pace as I was doing a moderate pace to keep with the guys guiding me out. Ponnani was now about 50 kilometres away. The thing about bad roads is when you’re riding a track bike which is built with the most stiffest aluminium composites and when you run 23c slick tyres, its asking for trouble. No trouble for the bike, but trouble for your bike. My back, my arse, my legs, my knees and my palms were at the receiving end of this torture. To top it all the rains were back and my front lights packed up too. My average speed dropped from a smooth 26km/h to less than 15km/h based on my awesome calculations I was doing. This felt like the longest 50 kilometres I had ever done my entire life, in-fact I didn’t really care if I reached Ponnani at all. All I wanted was good smooth roads. I cursed the Government of Kerala for the duration of my ride to Ponnani. I couldn’t understand how corrupt and useless they could be. I later learnt that the organisers had recce’d the route just two weeks prior and the roads were in perfect conditions. Within two weeks of the monsoons the roads were back to square one. Some sections were so bad that I was literally playing the game two dots. Finding the perfect link across a golf ball dimpled road. Believe me I’m not exaggerating on the road conditions. A lot of abuses were hurled. I finally reached Ponnani around  0100. It took me more than four hours to cover a distance less than 50 kilometres. I decided to stop over at the same restaurant I stopped over the previous night for food and a kattan kappi. To my surprise the two gents who escorted me out of Calicut also stopped by the same place. We were now 99 kilometres to completion. I entered the restaurant completely exhausted and left the place jumping with energy. My knees were clobbered by now. I popped my second painkiller. I offered a tab to one of the guys who passed the offer, while I later learnt he regretted doing so. The suffering and pain was getting real to be honest. The last 99 kilometres felt much like the opening stage of a trip on magic mushrooms. Everything felt different. I remember meeting the four riders who were ahead of me for the entire duration of the race, we teamed up and formed a pace-line. We must have been doing 33km/h for a good 20 kilometres, when I peeked back I realised I dropped the guys and was doing my own pace. It’s odd that in your last few kilometres, how the mind overcomes physical pain. The phrase “Shut up legs” makes absolute sense. In-fact it was more like shut up knees, shut up back and shut up arse! I finally reached the end of my ride at 0550 at The Bike Store, Cochin. I completed my first ever 600 brevet in 37 hours and 50 minutes on a brakeless track bike.

On line Casino Reputation On The Rise
The revolution on the planet of gaming happened awhile ago when first online casinos began to look on the Internet in 1996-1997.

The absolute most apparent big difference between online and area based casinos is that on line participants can play a common casino games using the pc in the safe and common atmosphere of these home. All on line casinos offer customers with detail by detail information on the internet site, and a fast manual on the best way to enjoy at the casino. Some on line casinos will present posts on different game techniques, and detail by detail details about rules of the activities, therefore novice participants can appear at ease while finding themselves acquainted with the gambling studio, its rules and policies.
At area based casinos rookie participants frequently experience discouraged by the noisy and active environment, numerous service personnel and gate safety guards. They usually feel confused, intimidated and missing in the vast developing place, being unable to savor the gaming process and to concentrate on the overall game itself. On the web casinos let people to rehearse, to refine their gambling skills and to slowly adapt to the brand new atmosphere at their particular pace. Many on line casinos let you free play tries therefore you can find out on your own if that casino is everything you are seeking for. You can also play for sure money without the danger to lose your savings by using number deposit bonuses offered by some on the web casinos as incentives for new players.
Still another advantageous asset of on line casinos might not be so obvious, but it is an essential one. The odds of earning a casino game at on the web casinos are often somewhat higher, than at area based casinos. Due to reduce maintenance fees for on the web casinos, they've been able to work with fewer costs twenty four hours a day, without any days-off. In line with the Casino Journal Newspaper, the average payout for land centered casinos is just about 89%, meaning that out of every buck wagered at the casino, 89 cents are paid out to earning customers. At the same time frame, it is not unusual to see payouts achieving 96-98% for on the web casinos, this means more payouts to playing customers!
The internet casino process has grown tremendously within the last decade or so that it has been around living - to a point wherever it is practically exceeding the brick and mortar casino system of the fore. Indeed, though difficult statistics are hard ahead by, chances are that now in time, there are many normal casino participants who play on online casinos than there are playing in the original stone and mortar casinos. Evaluating when it comes to playing sizes (amounts of income placed and winnings earned), on the web casinos will also be prone to get around stone and daftar poker hands down.
Now among the greatest attractions which have drawn therefore many people into on line casinos could be the bonuses they offer.
How a on line casino bonuses perform is in a way that for each quantity of'enjoying money'money one remains in to the web casino, the casino -or the'house'as the casino is known in these circles - tops up with a certain amount. This way, someone who deposits $100 to the casino, as an example, might find the'home'frosting their $100 deposit with another $20, in order that thanks to the web casino bonuses program, this type of individual gets to perform as much as they would have performed had they placed $120 into the casino, for enjoying purposes.
On the web casino bonuses can thus be viewed as the internet casino's idea of a'discount on purchase'wherever for every level of'playing company'a new player purchases, they're provided some more of exactly the same service, for free.

For the absolute most part, the best casino bonuses tend to be explained in percentages (like where in actuality the'home'offers to top up every total settled in to the casino account with a set proportion of it, say 5 or 10 percent). Needless to say, there are some online casinos that state their bonuses in repaired money quantities (like wherever for each $100 transferred, they prime up with $10), and these too, can come out to be great in some cases.
Still another feature which makes online casinos therefore beautiful is promotional bonuses and number deposit credits offered by lots of them. Using these incentives correctly, you can play activities and spend playtime with the casino income thus preserving some of one's own. Remember that besides trustworthy casinos with good service record there are always a several on line gaming parlors which may have stained their popularity by unethical techniques, bad customer service, and slow payouts.
You is likely to be called for your own personal information before you are permitted to enjoy on line, and you wish to make sure that your individual knowledge is protected by the casino. Therefore, it is very important first to learn online separate gambling instructions to casinos to learn the participants'favorites, trusted and well-known casino sites. Secondly, read cautiously the casino's rules and policies. Next, take to the casino for free before you begin wagering your personal money. Next, make sure that the regulations and regulations locally allow on the web gambling. Don't break regulations!

PEOPLE'S HEALTH FIRST, PRESIDENT'S IMAGE SECOND
White House motivated assistance with the coronavirus crisis is self-serving. Trump’s image seems to be the major concern. Not the health of the American people. Health of the people second in line.
The most recent example supporting the premise is the U. S. Surgeon General’s concern about face masks. Yesterday, he stated Americans should stop buying face masks. He fears the supply will run out.
If such occurs, there will not be sufficient masks available for the medical professionals. They who are at the highest risk for disease transmission.
Something strange here. What about me and you? If the medical people need to be protected, we do also. How dare any one in government suggest we go without!
The government has come up with numbers. I do not trust any figures set forth by the Trump administration. Let me share them, however. Trump’s people claim 300 million N95 masks are needed, only 30 million are in stock.
A simple solution. The factories and manufacturing facilities are in place to put out N95’s. Put them to work overtime! Add additional workers! Add shifts!
We are confronted by a national emergency. Use manufacturing facilities already in place to grind out what ever is necessary to fight the virus.
What it boils down to is what is important. The answer life. Ours as well as the medical people.
Finally to the point. No one yet has told us the importance of the masks. It seems they are need to protect the wearer. Not so. They protect others. We sneeze, cough, etc. The wearing of the masks is to prevent someone coming down with or already having the virus from passing it on.
A different set of facts. Again, not one shared wit the public yet.
The disease slowly but surely is moving into and across America. Where will we be in 2 weeks to a month?
An Illinois resident tested positive for the virus yesterday. The person earlier afflicted in Washington died.
The economy will be involved further. Not just the stock market. The hospitals themselves. Another issue not discussed.
Many who will become sick are uninsured. The hospitals will still care for them. Bernie Sander’s Medicare for all will grow in popularity.
Anthony Yainz is a respected Key Wester. He had an interesting comment on Facebook yesterday. Something to the effect that the real danger is moronavirus in the White House.
A big day for the Cow Key Channel Bridge yesterday. A special Cow Key Bridge run. Zero K. The bridge a mere 300 feet long.
This month the bridge will undergo renovation. Expected to take 1.5 years. Good luck! Nothing the State does construction wise is concluded on time.
Yesterday’s run was titled Udder Run in honor/view of the anticipated repairs.
Note the bridge is the ONLY way in and out of Key West for vehicle traffic. The present 4 lanes will be no more than 3 during the renovation.
Hundreds came to enjoy the occasion. All dressed in comic fashion. Many with their dogs also so attired.
Health wise, the run very safe. No participant even raised a sweat.
Some Tennessee Williams.
Williams spent a significant portion of his life living in Key West. In 1949, he purchased a home on Duncan Street. Still stands today.
Duncan at the time was the end of Key West. The home was on the edge of a large salt pond. One of the reasons Williams bought the home was that he enjoyed swimming everyday and the opportunity to walk out his front door to swim appealed to him.
The house also gave him a quiet place to write.
Williams said, he bought the house “at the edge of the end of the world.” Again, there was no other place between him and the water.
Lisa today lives in a home on Duncan a block down from the Williams home. The government began filling in “across the street” from the Williams home in 1953. I don’t know how long it took. At some point in time, homes started being erected. One would be Lisa’s.
In fact, the filling in extended to the Atlantic. Today the distance between the Williams home and the ocean is several blocks.
Syracuse played North Carolina late yesterday afternoon. Syracuse lost 92-79. Not the best of years for Syracuse.
The game was the last one that will be played in the “old” Carrier Dome. It is to undergo major renovations, including a new roof. Next season’s basketball will be played in the “new” Dome.
Under the circumstances, it was a big afternoon at the Dome.
John Wallace is a yesteryear Syracuse star. His #44 jersey was retired at halftime.
Celebrities attended the game. The Patriots’ Tom Brady and Julian Edelman. Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon, also. They sat together in front row seats.
Also Syracuse stars from another era. David Bing and Larry Moten.
I watched the game at Shana Key. Enjoyed dinner at the bar afterwards.
I can remember when the Dome opened. It was September 20, 1980. A football game. The first of the season. I don’t recall the opponent.
The Carrier Dome was a big deal. Especially for a fan as fanatic as I was. The Dome had private boxes. Sixteen movie type seats. A bar and refrigerator. A significant standing area behind the seats.
Alcohol and food during the games. Extra of course. Syracuse had a catering service.
They rented, not sold. A ten year term for $50,000. How could I pass it up!
With the box also went 12 seats on the floor for basketball. My 12 in the first row immediately behind the Syracuse bench. Sixteen seats for football. Fifty yard line, 15th row.
The floor seats required payment in addition.
I did it all. Entertained everyone for 10 years.
I would be remiss if I did not share my first game experience.
Carrier manufactures air conditioning. Its primary plant in Syracuse. Carrier made a big donation and the Dome was named after the company.
The Dome however was not air conditioned. It had an air filtration system that was supposed to do the job. It failed on opening day. It was like 80 degrees outside and 120 inside.
Those watching from a box dressed. Proprietor and guests alike. Me in a sport jacket, shirt, tie, slacks.
Sweat!!! I was sitting on one of the steps inside the box, jacket off, tie undone, a couple of shirt buttons open thinking…..$50,000 for this!
The box was a wise investment. Besides an excellent write off, it was a family affair. My grandchildren grew up crawling on the box floor and basketball floor. They made friends. Most of my grandkids and their friends ended up going to Syracuse. Syracuse became a family thing for all of us.
I am glad Biden won and won big in South Carolina. Hope he does well Super Tuesday. The country wants moderation. Sanders not the person.
The pundits tell us Sanders will do the best Super Tuesday. He has already spent $15.5 million in those states whereas Biden only $600,000. The bucks have not been coming in to Biden.
Tino was an extra in a World War II movie. Took place in occupied France. Tino’s face in the pic is probably why he gets so many extra parts.
Enjoy your Sunday!

What Very good Preschool Seems to be Like: Snapshots From 4 States
Enlarge this imageSean Ashby/Getty ImagesSean Ashby/Getty ImagesA new report, out these days, presents 186 web pages of answers to one in the hardest inquiries in schooling: What does it just take to have preschool right? Mothers and fathers and politicians alike would like to know. States are shelling out approximately $7 billion this year on early childhood education, despite the fact that there are actually far more cautionary tales similar to this a person from Tenne see than achievements stories. Present-day launch with the Mastering Coverage Institute, “The Road to High-Quality Early Discovering: Le sons within the States,” a sists balance the preschool debate by highlighting a handful of states that surface to be having pre-K correct: Michigan, West Virginia, Washington and North Carolina. Here’s a fast primer on every single plan and some reasons why the LPI thinks it is operating. Michigan State-funded pre-K is practically nothing new to Michigan. The condition began its system back in 1985. Currently, the great Begin Readine s Plan serves much more than 38,000 at-risk 4-year-olds in a expense of approximately $6,447 (state bucks) per boy or girl, as outlined by the National Institute for Early Education Investigate. As for succe s, the program seems to obtain improved kindergarten readine s, afterwards studying and math efficiency, and, finally, highschool graduation costs.A number of far more vital Michigan specifics from modern report:Course dimensions is capped at eighteen Most kids (80 p.c) show up at for a complete working day Teacher-child ratio will have to be 1-to-8 or much better All direct lecturers must use a state educating certification with the early childhood education or early childhood-general andspecial schooling endorsement; or simply a bachelor’s in early childhood instruction or boy Jamie Benn Jersey or girl enhancement using a specialization in preschool educating Early childhood specialists (“experts with the M.A. and 5 or more decades of related experience”) perform regular cla sroom visits, coaching academics Emphasizes loved ones engagement, mandating no le s than four loved ones contacts on a yearly basis and involving moms and dads in neighborhood advisory committees Takes advantage of a voluntary, five-star quality ranking and enhancement proce s (QRIS)It should really arrive as no surprise that Excellent Start’s cost tag has developed substantially due to the fact 1985, when it value just $1 million (building 700 part-day slots). With bipartisan help as well as a solid force from Republican Gov. Rick Snyder, Michigan doubled its 2012-13 pre-K spending budget, paying out $240 million around the program in 2014-15. West Virginia The Mountain State’s pre-K attempts jump out for quite a few good reasons, even so the most evident is usually that it is the only point out in this particular report and amongst the several during the country that gives preschool to all 4-year-olds, not only all those who’re viewed as at-risk. It started its universal system, recognized as WV Pre-K, in 2002 and now spends $6,427 in state bucks for each baby (according to NIEER), serving three-quarters of the state’s 4-year-olds likewise as 3-year-olds with special needs. Vital points:Cla s dimensions is capped at twenty ninety three per cent of lecture rooms are full-day Teacher-child ratio need to be 1-to-10 or greater All guide teachers ought to have either: a state instructing license with early education and learning or preschool particular needs endorsement; knowledgeable teaching certification with early childhood, preschool education and learning, or preschool special desires endorsement; or maybe a bachelor’s in kid development, early childhood, or occupational progre s with early childhood emphasis Involves teachers to fulfill with mother and father face-to-face no le s than 2 times a yearGiven its universal application, West Virginia sits close to the best of NIEER’s obtain rankings, in fifth put, neverthele s its full-day applications commonly only provide children for four days per week. The new LPI report notes that a fresh thrust towards five-day, full-day preschool will put serious strain on the means of https://www.dallasstarsshine.com/Mattias-Janmark-Jersey West Virginia communities to find, pay and keep experienced teachers. Washington The Washington Early Childhood Education and learning and Support Application could be the smallest preschool effort and hard work highlighted in today’s report, largely serving young children whose people will get paid no more than $26,730 this calendar year (to get a loved ones of 4). But, although this system lacks scale, it provides a extraordinary depth of expert services.Course measurement is capped at twenty 81 percent of systems are part-day Teacher-child ratio ought to be 1-to-10 or improved All guide academics need to have both: a state training certification with the endorsement in early education and learning; a educating degree; or an a sociate degree with thirty credits in early schooling As outlined by the report, “All courses are needed to po se s a mentor; coaches and lecturers are encouraged to satisfy the moment a week” Delivers intensive wraparound providers for children, together with overall health, dental and vision screenings as well as wellne s care referrals https://www.dallasstarsshine.com/Ty-Dellandrea-Jersey Mandates no le s than three hrs of “documented spouse and children a sist per year” In 2017, will roll out a different good quality ranking and improvement procedure (QRIS) not simply for its state-funded pre-K but in addition for child care providersIt’s worthy of noting that, though Washington’s state-funded pre-K application remains somewhat smaller, the town of Seattle has produced a giant go towards universal preschool for all 4-year-olds. Households earning under 300 percent in the federal poverty stage get in for free. Anyone else pays on a sliding scale. North Carolina NC Pre-K, as it is now acknowledged, commenced in 2001 and performed a starring role in the contentious, long-running faculty funding lawsuit in opposition to the point out. More on that right here. These days, it serves almost 27,000 4-year-olds from households dwelling on below $51,000 a year (for your loved ones of 4).Course dimensions is capped at 18 100 p.c of kids attend full-day plans Teacher-child ratio must be 1-to-9 or greater All lead lecturers must have po sibly: a bachelor’s in early childhood education and learning, youngster improvement or even a linked field, in addition to a birth-through-kindergarten training license or simply a preschool add-on instructing license Offers rigorous coaching for teachers, such as “observational a se sments and a sist for very first three years in cla sroom as portion of licensure course of action, followed by yearly observational a se sments and expert growth thereafter” All little ones get a wellne s a se sment after they begin the program Academics draft “family engagement plans” that include parent-teacher conferences and home visits Makes use of a five-star rating program to judge all boy or girl care, Head Commence and state-funded pre-K programsUnlike the other states on this record, North Carolina has become scaling again its motivation to public preschool. Funding peaked in 2009 at $188 million. In 2014-15, point out appropriations and lottery receipts, put together, totaled just in exce s of $120 million. The good news with the method is the fact that, as opposed to these many cautionary tales we stated previously, NC Pre-K appears to own lasting rewards, with low-income small children who attended this system outperforming these who didn’t in third-grade math and English.
