This all sounds pretty good on paper, right? Well let's figure out how it appears in practice. Within this review, we'll look at their drag and drop editor and see if it's any good for creating a website, blog or online shop.
On The broad spectrum of website building alternatives, Weebly resides at the end that is comprehensive and provides all you need to begin and develop your site. It's in contrast to options where you purchase, set up, and handle all of the"bits" of your site individually.
Utilizing Weebly is sort of like leasing and customizing a apartment in a nice development instead of buying and owning your own house. You're still in control of decor, cleaning, and everything living-wise — but you leave the building, plumbing, security, and infrastructure into the house owner. That point is critical since there's typically a direct tradeoff between control and convenience.
All The design and functionality which are included with Weebly work seamlessly together as a stage. That's what allows them to have drag and drop layout, design, and content.
Website Builders as a group compete with choices like WordPress.org (that offers the free software to build a site that you have & control — visit my WordPress setup guide here) all the way to choices like typing actual HTML code into a text document. Make sense? Awesome, let us dive to the Weebly review.
One Other fast aside — a disclosure — I get referral fees from all of the companies discussed in this informative article. My opinions & study are based on my experiences as either a paying customer or consultant to a paying client.
You'll Discover That elements snap into place And arrange themselves flawlessly on the webpage. Other solutions, such as Wix, forego the grid , so it is very possible to end up with overlapping components. Together with Weebly, no risk of that occurring.
Working with text can also be a breeze in Weebly. You simply click what you want to edit and type your own words in the box. Some other solutions use"entry masks" that are somewhat more abstract and not always easy to utilize.
So are there Any drawbacks? This depends. If you would like to have more freedom with your layouts, then you may feel frustrated with the rigid grid system. You ought to go for Wix. This competition also has an automated solution (Wix ADI) that may build the website for you pretty much by itself. You may possibly shave a few minutes of your website building time.
There are also two things we'd like to see. First is a global reverse button. You can undo what you type in text boxes, but it will be nice to erase mistakes when you move or add components. Secondly, Weebly doesn't have an overall media database which keeps all of your pictures. You're going to have to re-upload pictures for each and every element that requires them.
For other kinds of websites, Weebly Starter Is usually sufficient. It will offer everything you will need for displaying info about your services, portfolio or company details. However, the Starter plan overlooks a few Pro features.
If some of those Above are must-haves for your website, you will need to upgrade to Weebly Pro. And to get a more complete breakdown, please consult with our full Weebly pricing comparison page.
Let's get 1 thing out of the way . if You are an advanced search engine optimization expert who absolutely must rank #1 on search engines to get a very competitive keyword, you may have a difficult time with Weebly. It's not impossible, but there are limitations.
· Your headings are limited to H2. There's a free app that allows you add headings from h1 to h6, but it messes somewhat with your formatting. We wonder Weebly doesn't incorporate it in their system.
· Particular pages (categories and product pages) include a mandatory string for your URL. You get things like www.yoursite.com/store/p1/my-product/yellow. Not a huge issue unless your website is not in English. Same with the blog articles, they'll have'/site /' in the URL structure, which can't be changed.
As far as we Understand, very secure. The company takes safety very seriously. They promote strong passwords, and offer SSL encryption on all plans. The free tier will run on https which delivers an excess layer of safety. Especially important for onsite personal data exchange (e.g. charge card or email address).
Unfortunately, we wish Weebly offered more in the way of backup and restore systems. You've got to take care of it manually by saving your site for a .zip file regularly. And there's no restore function in case disaster strikes. Wix, for example, monitors new adjustments and lets you jump back in time to a previous version of your website.
We'd say yes, with a caveat. It is great to Sell digital and physical products for small and medium-sized stores, but maybe not for big ones. Even though you can use the export and import function to manage many items, you might discover Weebly lacking in features for enormous stores.
Ultimately, it's worth noting that although You can create a shop using the Starter and Guru plan, upgrading to Business and higher makes more sense. You'll find the automated shipping and sales tax calculator, which is extremely helpful for serious store owners. Furthermore, you won't need to pay an additional transaction charge of 3%.
You bet! There are no less than 300 programs in Quite a few categories such as eCommerce, Communication, Marketing, Social, or Site Tools. Many are free, some are paid. Some are constructed by Weebly, some by third-party developers. For the latter, there is always an (unlikely) chance that it might shut down one day. Also a shame the apps made by Weebly are rather restricted.
However, one thing all the programs have in Common is a super easy installation feature. Click and bam! All programs are tested and will work immediately on your site. We attempted some cool ones like a way to add tables, event calendars, and data bars to display special information. Our only qualm is that the quality and amount of apps is a marginally inferior those from the Wix App Store.
Weebly provides Hosting for all the websites which are constructed in their platform. That may be good or awful, but in Weebly's situation, it is an expert. They have fast load speeds. Their websites are optimized to their hosting. They treat security against hackers and spam. With business plans, they even install and keep SSL across your whole site. Here's my speed test.
There Are still speed and security dangers, but it's an advantage for many website owners to have somebody else take care of speed, security, backups, etc.. The cost is bundled with expert and completely free accounts, so it's a good value-add.
Whenever You start some piece of software — regardless of how intuitive — there is that moment where you think"okay, what do I do today?" This process is called onboarding, and it's also incredibly hard to execute well.
The Software maker does not want to be annoying, but they also wish to provide help. I really like how Weebly assembles in strong onboarding and education not just via email drip sequence but also via small info buttons constructed with their platform.
One Promoted benefit of using an all-inclusive site builder is that you won't need to write HTML or CSS code. You can just drag and drop elements. Everything you see in the builder is exactly what you get on the site.
It's Not necessarily that simple. There is a whole lot of nuances to"drop and drag." Most of us really mean"I wish to click and drag this component and move it to a general area where it will look good — you know, automatically focused, etc." Put simply, it is like playing tee-ball rather than baseball…or bowling with gutter guards up. You want to do something, but also have a little bit of help.
For The most part, Weebly pulls off this. Their drag and drop really functions. And, for the control freaks among us, they supply access to some custom CSS module, so which you can edit the template into precisely your choosing.
With An all-inclusive platform, client service is able to troubleshoot and correct any issue. This is a massive benefit of website builder platforms in general, but especially with Weebly since they have telephone support.
If You conduct your site, you've got to figure out just who can correct a problem before getting in touch with them. Together with Weebly, you just get in contact with them.
The Big advantage of building your own website on your host is you don't need to depend on a platform's attribute set. If you proceed the stage route, it's key to be sure that they have all the features you desire and need.
Weebly's Feature set is strong. They've got all the fundamentals — like website performance, contact forms, etc, but also the necessary innovative features like URL redirects and page-level customized code positioning.
Even Beyond the advanced requirements, Weebly even includes features like discussion, subscription choices, integrated advertising options, file uploads, etc.. They also have eCommerce alternatives, which I will cover individually below.
If You proceed the comprehensive website builder course, Weebly's feature set must provide everything you will need for typical personal/business websites (though as we will see in the Cons section, you really do need to be especially aware of innovative options).
Why? Square is a payments processor. They're huge offline and want to be bigger in the on/offline arena. That is why they bought Weebly — and the future is pretty bright for Weebly's ecommerce features.
If You are starting a site and plan on selling a few things here and there or if you have an offline presence (ie, pop-up stores ) and you would like to market online, the Weebly offers a readymade alternative with tightly integrated ecommerce features that should only get better.
I've Been using site builders for 20 years because the Homestead.com days and have been paying attention to the industry for the previous 5 decades. 1 overarching trend is a company's structure pushes product investment over the marketing group or the product team.
Even In a fast paced marketplace, a company's construction and end targets will dictate how it acts and what investments it makes. As I outlined in my Wix vs. Weebly vs. Squarespacestructure can vary wildly among direct competitors.
Total Pricing is quite competitive not only in contrast to other all-inclusive site buildersbut also with purchasing your hosting. Their Starter plan starts approximately $8/mo when paid up front. And they do not have the typical caps of other site builders. The Pro plan adds solid features and stays under $12/mo.
And Again — you'll see that everything is accessible and unlimited. There are no caps on pages or storage area. And unlike competitions such as Wix, they remove all ads with the initial paid grade.
Compared To building your own website in your host and notably with other site builders, Weebly's pricing is very aggressive. Cost is not everything, but I really like how they structure it.
Weebly Sort of has that. It has a Pages section that lists out all the pages on your site. It allows you to drag and drop the hierarchy and then click on to edit each. But it's far from a efficient system.
There is No way to add custom content forms (except inside an individual page). If you're planning a large site (such as hundreds of pages), the content contained in Weebly would require a private system to keep it all sorted and easily accessible.
The Last huge drawback of Weebly is that moving to a new platform is difficult. If you want to move someplace else, such as your own WordPress powered website, migrating your content and redirecting your URLs will be a difficult procedure.
Since Weebly allows for HTML editing, many advertising tools and attributes can be added to your website. However, since you still do not have 100% control over your site & server — it can be challenging or not impossible to include advanced marketing tools such as an EV SSL, customized email collection tools, custom analytics packages, habit social shares, specific Schemas and A/B testing software.
A bonus for Weebly is their eCommerce functionality. You can sell products from the Weebly site without changing platforms or performing some distinctive developments. It fits in effortlessly and has strong functionality.
It is Ideal for sites that are mostly lead-generation, informational, etc but also wish to sell a few goods. Additionally, it is a fantastic match for anybody testing out products before going into a long-term platform. It's not a long-term match for sites which are eCommerce-first. For all those, an online shop you have with WordPress + WooCommerce or even a specialization eCommerce platform such as Shopify (inspection ) or even Bigcommerce (review) would be a better match.
If You are looking to build a long-term content or direct generation site, then I'd look at WordPress.com (for content) or Wix (for overall drag & drop) instead of Weebly. Even if Weebly meets your needs now, they may not in the medium future.
When we first started testing Weebly many Years past, it was only another website builder. That has completely changed. Weebly has evolved into an outstanding website building tool that is better than many competitors. It's easy, uncluttered and simple to use — that is precisely what people with limited technical abilities need in regards to making their own internet presence.
Obviously, it is not 100% perfect. We'd like To observe somewhat more templates, for instance. Getting an email address attached to a domain is also a bit pricey, as they recommend G Suite, that costs $5 per month, per user. (Although there are workarounds, as you can see in the FAQ below).
But all in all, Weebly reaches the very top of the list of site builders. Their ease of use combined with cool tools like the iOS or Android app for editing your site on the move, or the number of add-ons available in the app centre makes it robust, and enjoyable to use.

The FDA recently accepted a New Drug Application (NDA) for Sunovion's investigational treatment SUN-101 (glycopyrrolate) administered by the eFlow nebulizer to treat adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Although the FDA's acceptance of the NDA for review does not guarantee approval, it is a crucial step in the drug approval process. Sunovian filed the NDA in July.
SUN-101 is a long-acting blocker of muscarinic receptors intended for COPD maintance. The eFlow nebulizer was developed by PARI Pharma, which collaborated with Sunovion to bring SUN-101 to the market.
The FDA accepted the NDA application based on data from the GOLDEN clinical trials program. The GOLDEN-3 (NCT02347761) and GOLDEN-4 (NCT02347774) Phase 3 studies both explored the effects of SUN-101/eFlow treatment compared to a placebo for 12 weeks in patients with moderate to very severe COPD.
Both trials resulted in improved lung function compared to a placebo. Lung function was measured by forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1).
The open-label Phase 3 GOLDEN-5 (NCT02276222) trial continued exploring the safety and tolerability of the treatment over 48 weeks. The study included 1,087 patients in a direct comparison to the drug Spiriva (tiotropium bromide) delivered once-daily by the HandiHaler nebulizer.

Peter Falk Dead at 83
June 24, 2011 | by	shep | 0
It's being reported that Peter Falk, star of TV's Columbo, has died at the age of 83. The statement said that Falk died peacefully at his Beverly Hills, Calif., home on the evening of June 23. Falk had Alzheimer's disease and advanced dementia that intensified after a series of dental operations in 2007.
Falk created one of TV's most iconic detectives, Lt. Columbo, in his long-running TV series. He'd politely show up on a case, act aloof and as if he didn't know what was really going on. Then when the criminal least expected it, Columbo would show back up, acting as polite as ever, and nab the criminal by explaining how there was just one little detail he could not figure out. It was great TV and the character is one that will never be forgotten.
Falk is survived by his wife of 34 years, Shera, and two daughters from a previous marriage.

Communion for the pro-abortion politicians during the Pope's visit
LifeSiteNews.com's daily bulletin today links to yesterday's Robert Novak column (click on this post's title) about the pro-abortion politicians receiving Communion during the Pope's visit to Washington, D.C., and New York City.
Novak points out that Archbishop Wuerl and Cardinal Egan invited trouble by inviting the pro-aborts to the Pope's Masses. He also says the pro-aborts' reception of Communion "...reflected disobedience to Benedict by the archbishops of New York and Washington."
Novak adds this:
"Vatican sources say the pope has not retreated from his long-held position that pro-choice politicians should be deprived of Communion, but the decisions in Washington and New York were not his. The effect was to dull the pope's messages of faith, obligation and compassion. In his Yankee Stadium homily, he talked of 'authority' and 'obedience' -- acknowledging that 'these are not easy words to speak nowadays.' They surely are not[,] for four former presidential candidates and two princes of the church, representing Catholics who defy their faith's doctrine on abortion.
"Benedict's position was unequivocal when he was Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Asked in 2004 whether Kerry, as the Democratic presidential nominee, should be allowed to take Communion, he replied, "The minister of Holy Communion must refuse to distribute it.'"
"Ratzinger's demeanor necessarily has changed with his elevation from doctrinal enforcer to global pastor, but he has not altered his position. When the pope arrived in Brazil a year ago, he declared: 'The killing of an innocent human child is incompatible with going into Communion in the body of Christ.'"

All Blacks' haka challenge gets protection
Source: Agencies | February 12, 2009, Thursday | Print Edition
THE haka challenge made famous by the All Blacks' rugby team was yesterday given back to the Maori tribe whose ancestor devised it with the aim of protecting it from commercial exploitation.
Ka Mate, which is used by the All Blacks before matches as a challenge to their opposition, was originated by Ngati Toa's warrior chief Te Rauparaha in the early 19th Century after he escaped death while being chased by his enemies.
The New Zealand government gave the intellectual property rights of the challenge to the tribe yesterday as part of an agreement to settle grievances going back 160 years.
The tribe also received NZ$121 million (US$63.72 million) and land around the bottom of the North and top of the South Islands.
Ngati Toa has tried several times, but failed, to trademark the haka over the past 10 years to limit commercial abuse.
Renditions of the haka used in international advertising campaigns have provoked outrage amongst Maori, who claimed they undermined its cultural significance.
In 2006, automaker Fiat released an advert featuring Italian women giving a rendition of the challenge, which is only allowed to be performed by men, while in 2007 a bakery produced an animated commercial with gingerbread men performing it.
While Ngati Toa would protect the haka from "inappropriate use," Prime Minister John Key said he did not expect they would be able to claim royalties nor veto its use, particularly by the All Blacks.
"It would be unacceptable for the Crown if there was a charge on New Zealanders or a restriction on New Zealanders for them to have a rendition of Ka Mate," Key said.
"They (the All Blacks) are our national sports team and they have had the rendition of Ka Mate for a long time. I just don't count that in issues of commercial."

Most people today are spending more time in the outdoor areas like gardens, patios and decks. With this advancement, more builders are giving house buyers facilities to relax in these outdoor living areas after a tiring day. However, it is essential that you choose the Outdoor Lighting very carefully and effectively. Because lights plays the most important role, especially when decorating the outdoor areas like gardens, decks and patios, you must make sure that you have chosen the best outdoor lighting to give the area a beautiful and perfect look.
Most of the times, the outdoor lights like walkthroughs and Lamp Shades set the mood of the living areas. Thus, they are first considered for practical purposes and then for aesthetic value of the property. However, you can put them to great use provided you know the importance and can set it in the right way. If you place the outdoor lighting strategically, you can definitely manage to highlight the beauty of you outdoors as well as the interiors.
But you are not a lighting expert and that is why, it is better to take a look at the available options. This will give you a clear idea as to what is good for your outdoor and help you choose the best one. There are different types of outdoor lighting that can be used to increase the aesthetic value of your property, while putting the lights to proper use.
1. Walk way Lights are those that point downward and are attached to the walls around the walkway. You can use a variety of walkway lights to decorate the pathway or the entrance of your house as well as the outdoors. These lights usually throw a slightly blue or pink hue. This is possible the best outdoor lighting option to keep your porch, gazebo, or deck lit up after sunset.
2. The other type of outdoor lighting that can be used to improve the aesthetic appearance of your outdoor living area is a decorative post cap lights. These lights are a fantastic way to give your outdoor both lighting and style. They function just like lamp shades, for the only difference is that they can be attached to the railings or bridges and posts.
3. The hanging light is a way to light up the decor of your outdoors. If it is hard to imagine, think of Japanese paper lanterns. Just the same way, they keep hanging to strings or ceiling. You can choose these lights to make a dramatic lighting statement and create focused pools of light over your favourite spots.
4. Yet another type of outdoor lighting includes floor and table lamps. These are the best way to favour ambient lighting instead of overhead lights. However, you can find a variety of lamp shades that would be perfect for the kind of interiors and exteriors you have. In addition these kinds of lights give a more comfortable appeal and can be moved to a place that needs more light. Therefore, you must carefully decide on the style and type of lighting you want to make your ambient and interiors beautiful and relaxing.


I love understanding how things work. I also take a lot of pride in creating things the lay person wouldn't recognize as homemade. I have a background in farming, construction, manufacturing, and now engineering. I look forward to sharing more of what I do in my garage.


Rohingya refugees, Mohammed Kamal, right, Khafs bindi Slammat, in the orange headscarf, Jainaff, 2, and Umar, 4 months.
He fled in the dead of the night, knowing he could be captured and shot at any moment.
Mohammad Kamal is the newest Rohingya refugee from Myanmar to call Palmerston North home. He says life here is far different to the one he used to lead.
Kamal was 19 when he fled his family farm in the northwestern Rakhine State when his home in Myanmar had become too dangerous.
Life there was knowing you could be shot at any time, he said.
Conflict, chaos and violence has bled through the state since the 1970s, when a militant group came to power.
Kamal was one of the many Rohingya to witness ethnic violence and be denied citizenship.
Following Myanmar's democratic election in 1990, Kamal said the situation in Rakhine worsened as the military clung on to power and refused to recognise the result.
So Kamal fled in the dead of the night. He hid and journeyed in two trucks and later a boat, to escape military control.
However, his escape hit a hurdle on his arrival into Thailand when his imitation documentation was taken by immigration. About 500 Thai baht solved his problem and earned his release.
Yet he was stopped again on a Thai train and arrested by police for not having the proper documentation.
From there, Kamal and a group of other men with mixed nationalities were released at the Thai-Myanmar border.
The situation was grim. Kamal said the men were forced to swim across the Moei River, knowing they would likely be shot when they got to the other side.
So they took their chances. They swam away from the authorities and headed back to the Thai border.
All but one managed to survive. Cold, wet and exhausted after not eating for about three days, the men arrived on the doorstep of a Muslim mosque. It was here their luck began to change.
Kamal found work making roti flatbread and worked on saving enough money to get himself to Malaysia.
He worked hard for five years, managing to send money back home to his parents and siblings, and eventually to pay an agent about 1200 baht to smuggle him into Malaysia.
Kamal was one of many bodies lining the back seat, floor and boot of a car as they were smuggled into their new home.
Those who died along the way were dumped along the roadside, he said.
Kamal eventually ended up in Kuala Lumpur. In the 13 years he worked there, he met and married Khafs bindi Slammat.
Together they gained refugee status and arrived in Auckland in March 2017.
The couple and their two children, Jainaff and Umar, now live in Palmerston North where it was "very safe for my children and family".
Red Cross humanitarian services manager Sonja de Lange said it was great to see the community growing. She welcomed the family, saying it was likely they had not heard the words "you're welcome" in about 20 years.

Once again Johnson and Johnson is involved in a cancer causing lawsuit payout. This one makes it even more scary because we are talking about baby powder. Plaintiff Eva Echeverria, 63, told a Los Angeles court she developed incurable ovarian cancer after decades of Johnson's Baby Powder use. She used it as a feminine odor protection and the constant use of the powder containing talc was instrumental in her and other lawsuit victims contracting ovarian cancer. As Johnson and Johnson faces thousands of U.S. lawsuits over potential cancer risks of its talc-based products, a California jury ordered the company Monday to pay $417 million in damages to the terminally ill woman. This is what is known in the pharmaceutical industry as "collateral damage." Putting a product out, knowing there might be a potential hazard to health but are willing to take the "hit" with lawsuits because of the enormous profits to be lost if they pull it off the market or make a change.
Eva Echeverria, 63, who is undergoing treatment in the hospital for ovarian cancer, testified through a video deposition that she'd used Johnson's Baby Powder for feminine hygiene for more than 50 years before halting the practice in 2016, the Los Angeles Times reported. She only stopped after watching a news story about a woman with ovarian cancer who had also used the talc for a similar purpose, she said. She was still using the talc product as she was being treated for ovarian cancer for almost a decade. Agreeing with the plaintiff that there was a connection between her cancer and her use of Johnson & Johnson products containing talc, a Los Angeles Superior Court jury awarded Echeverria $70 million in compensatory damages and $347 million, a record total in punitive damages on Monday. The verdict was the largest sum that's been awarded in a series of talcum powder lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson. In May, a jury in St. Louis, Missouri, ordered the company to pay $110.5 million to a 62-year-old Virginian, who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer after using Johnson & Johnson's talc-based products for many decades. The company has also lost three other similar trials in Missouri last year, which it paid out a total of more than $300 million in damages for.
The organization added that cornstarch powders, which can be used as an alternative to talc-based ones, have not been linked to any female cancers.
Wow! This is also what we use in baby's diapers! Regardless of what Johnson & Johnson states as no scientific proof that talc causes ovarian cancer when used in the genital area, the fact they are losing the cases one by one, says something different. So much for collateral damage and how many years back do you have to go to know if it has affected you? Girlfriends and mothers, NATURAL ORANGIC POWDERS!!!!!!
Two of Swords:Stalemate and not being able to come to a decision. As in all cases like this, there is never absolute proof but statistics to make a case. Johnson & Johnson will stand by its product and continue to pay out the "shut up" money for it admits knowingly putting a product out there that is a danger for women, the payouts will be much higher.
Loving, giving and caring of nature and wants the best for everyone. This card I feel represents Echeveria in her fight to bring to light the cancer-causing talc situation. It is too late for her but as she states, she wants to help others in her situation and for others to never use it.
A loving and generous of nature female. Since this is inverted, it shows the cold disregard for women's health that Johnson & Johnson has taken in these cases.


Is that Crabgrass or Quackgrass in Your West Michigan Lawn?
Is that Crabgrass or Quackgrass in Your Lawn?
Bykerk Landscaping » Is that Crabgrass or Quackgrass in Your Lawn?
May is a beautiful month in Michigan. It's the month when the ornamental trees bloom, and perennials begin to blossom. The trees put on their green garments, and grass grows and thickens. It's also the month when you begin to see weeds emerge in your lawn. The very first ones you'll probably notice are the dandelions. Everyone recognizes those by their bright, yellow flowers. However, a number of better camouflaged weeds are infiltrating your lawn if you're not taking measures to stop them. These include crabgrass and quackgrass.
Crabgrass is a summer annual grass that sprouts in the spring, grows vigorously in the summer, and then dies in the late fall. It is a wide bladed grass whose blades grow horizontally rather than upright. Crabgrass seeds do not germinate until the temperature of the soil is between 55 and 60 degrees, so it's not a problem in early spring in Michigan due to our cool temperatures and late frosts.
Quackgrass is a perennial with a hardy system of roots. It's also a thick, wide bladed grass, but, unlike crabgrass, it has clasping auricles where the grass blade wraps around the lower stem. As soon as the temperatures are warm and enough rain falls, quackgrass begins to grow along with the rest of your lawn. It will grow until late in the fall until the weather turns cold.
How Do You Get Rid of Crabgrass and Quackgrass?
It's complicated. This is because, while they might look similar, especially early on in their growth cycles, they're different types of grasses. You can prevent crabgrass if you apply a crabgrass preventer early enough in the season or a post-emergent crabgrass eliminator soon after, but that only works if what you have is crabgrass and not quackgrass.
If you have quackgrass in your lawn, it's already established as a perennial, and you'll have to kill it with a herbicide like Roundup. A better way to handle quackgrass is to seed your lawn with desirable grasses, mow it regularly, and fertilize. This way the more desirable grasses will naturally crowd out the quackgrass. Alternatively, you can kill an entire section of quackgrass-infested grass and reseed it.
If you can't or don't want to learn to tell crabgrass from quackgrass during all of their stages of their development, don't worry – Bykerk Landscape Management is here to help. We have plenty of experience with the full spectrum of Michigan weeds and know how to prevent and eliminate them. Our lawn treatment program involves applying crabgrass preventers, broadleaf weed control, insecticides, and fertilizers. Together they will stop weeds from infiltrating your lawn and strengthen and revitalize the grass you do want growing there. We also target stubborn weeds with herbicide and seed your lawn wherever it needs help growing. We'll do whatever it takes to correct any lawn problems you have.
To ensure your lawn is lush, green, and beautiful this summer, call us at Bykerk today.

CPAs examine the issues – and ethics – of marijuana as a business
While marijuana is now legal to one degree or another in 28 U.S. states, the substance is still federally illegal – and that means that CPAs and others who want to serve this potentially lucrative niche face questions of professional conduct that are not easily answered. Having made the plant-based drug legal for certain medicinal uses in 2014 under the Compassionate Care Act, New York is one of those states in which marijuana can be legally distributed in some way, and recently, the New York State Society of CPAs hosted a symposium on the marijuana business.
Getting respect
Reno News & Review
In Manhattan this week, the New York State Society of Certified Public Accountants held something called a "Marijuana Symposium: Business, Tax and Legal Implications." Nothing gives a stronger sense that this industry is here to stay than professional meetings on how accountants can keep business people out of trouble. "As the marijuana industry continues to grow rapidly, as well as generate jobs and profits, CPAs have been asked to provide their services to businesses that cater to the ever-growing medical marijuana industry," said a statement from the Society.

The $68 billion question: Will Trump, GOP cost NY its most popular tax deduction?SiLive.com
New York taxpayers stand to lose about $68 billion that they now deduct from their federal taxes if President-elect Donald Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan move forward with their tax reform plans next year, according to state officials and tax experts. Trump and Ryan have proposed scaling back or eliminating the deduction for state and local income and property taxes as part of one of the most sweeping changes to federal tax code in more than 100 years.
Savino: Sessions could throw medical marijuana programs into 'disarray'
State Sen. Diane Savino, the chamber's sponsor of the state's Compassionate Care Act, said Tuesday she is concerned about the new administration's impact on medical marijuana laws. "While the current president-elect, Donald Trump, has not said anything hostile about medical marijuana and, in fact, his comments have been pretty positive about medical marijuana ... his selection for Attorney General is a real concern for myself, and I know for people in the industry," Savino, a member of the Independent Democratic Conference, said during a panel discussion sponsored by the New York State Society of CPAs.

Why New Yorkers are rushing to divorce before New Year's Day
Santa baby, slip a divorce judgment under the tree, for me. While January is known as "Divorce Month" across the U.S. because couples typically wait until after the holidays to say "I Don't" — New Yorkers rush to finalize their pending divorce cases in December, to cash in on income tax savings. "If you're divorced as of 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 31st you can file as single for the entire year," said Manhattan divorce lawyer Susan Moss.

Avoid Social Security Screwups
Not long ago, I attended an all-day seminar on Social Security, my goal being to soak up as much as I could about a devilishly complicated system. By noon, my brain had started to feel numb; by late afternoon, facts were bouncing off it like rubber darts. Considering that I already had a working knowledge of Social Security, I wondered how anyone coming at it cold could possibly master all the details.
Marijuana Symposium
BV Wire Newsletter (full blurb below)
During the presidential election, voters approved marijuana initiatives in eight of the nine states where it was on the ballot. That means a total of 31 states and jurisdictions now have legal marijuana in some capacity. This is a situation that business valuators simply can't ignore. The New York State Society of CPAs has put together an event, the Marijuana Symposium: Business, Tax and Legal Implications, to be held in New York City on December 13. Among the speakers will be Ron Seigneur (Seigneur Gustafson LLP), who is a valuation practitioner based in Colorado, one of the first states to legalize adult recreational cannabis. He will cover valuation nuances based on lessons learned in his state. Seigneur is a contributor to a new guide, What It's Worth: Value and Business Challenges in the Budding Cannabis Industry.

Year-end tax tips for 2016
CPA Michelle Staebell from the New York State Society of CPAs discussed some year-end tax tips Monday on News 8 at Sunrise. "There's so many decisions happening right now," said Staebell. "For employees, they can elect retirement contributions for next year, their health savings accounts, deductible benefits for their child care expenses, and flex savings accounts. All these things will effect 2017 returns but the decisions have to be now." Staebell discussed health insurance considerations. "As far as we can tell, the Affordable Care Act is going to be in place and everyone needs to have health insurance," she said.
New year, new president, new changes, new challenges and new opportunities: 2017 promises to be an interesting 12 months. To help you start getting a handle on what it might mean for your practice, your firm and the accounting profession as a whole, we've turned to two different groups: a panel of experts in the field, and a large group of accountants themselves. This year's experts are: Joanne Barry, executive director and CEO of the New York State Society of CPAs; Crosley+Co. founder Gale Crosley; California Society of CPAs CEO Loretta Doon; and others.

As New Yorkers Participate in Giving Tuesday, NYS Tax Department Reminds Them of Added Benefits
NYS Department of Taxation and Finance
The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance today reminded taxpayers to follow established guidelines when claiming charitable contributions on their personal income tax returns. Millions of New Yorkers donate to charities, especially around the holidays. In 2014, the most recent year for which tax data is available, more than two million New York taxpayers claimed $32.9 billion in charitable giving for a total tax savings of $599 million.
Back to work after retirement
CPA Scott Adair discussed some of the considerations for people who decide to go back to work after retiring Monday on News 8 at Sunrise. "There's a lot of advice to give those people," said Adair. "One of the things is you really need to take a look at what current retirement benefits you are receiving. Take a look at what potential impact going back to work could have on income taxes, could have Social Security benefits, could have on health care, and ultimately could have on your overall financial projections as you move forward in life." Adair called Social Security benefits the hot topic.

Democrat & Chronicle
When Michelle Staebell enrolled in an accounting class during college, she discovered the career path she wanted to pursue. "I always enjoyed math but I didn't know what I could do with a math degree. Taking that accounting class helped me realize that numbers truly had a purpose in life and I was hooked." Numbers have played an important role ever since for both Staebell, as the owner of CPA firm Towner Taxes and also for the hundreds of low income and elderly taxpayers she volunteers to help every year with VITA of Livingston County.

Marriage & finances
CPA Matt Bryant discussed the challenges surrounding finances for newlyweds Monday on News 8 at Sunrise. Bryant said newlyweds need to begin with a conversation about money. "I think the first step is to write down the goals each person has," he said. "Then you can look at them as a couple and order them in terms of priorities." Even if the goals differ, Bryant said couples can work together to address their differences. "Trying to make them in an order of priority helps the couple," he said. "Try to get goals that are going to accomplish things for both people."

Election Creates 'Very Real Possibility' of Tax Reform
With Donald Trump having aligned his tax plans with those of Congressional Republicans over the course of the campaign, his election puts the GOP in a position to enact significant changes in the nation's tax system. "There's no more reason for any delay for any type of tax reform," explained Tony Nitti, a CPA, tax educator and partner at Top 50 Firm Withum. "You've got a Republican in the White House, control of the House and Senate, and a tax wonk as Speaker of the House in Paul Ryan. Their plans are fairly aligned between Trump and things that Ryan has proposed in the past, so there's really no reason not to have significant change in the tax law – if that's what they want to happen."

Fink says BlackRock advising private equity investors on fees
Laurence D. Fink
BlackRock CEO Laurence D. Fink says private equity fees are too high and his firm is offering advice to pension plans that want to reduce fees.
Mr. Fink, who spoke Tuesday at a retreat meeting in San Diego for the $213.5 billion California State Teachers' Retirement System, did not identify any plans talking with BlackRock. But several sources said one is the $333.3 billion California Public Employees' Retirement System. The sources say the Sacramento system has been in preliminary discussions with BlackRock over a partial or full takeover of CalPERS' private equity program, which would be separate from BlackRock's existing $21.5 billion private equity fund-of-funds business.
Mr. Fink did not specify how BlackRock is working with the pension plans but did offer his view on fees: "If you believe that returns are going to be lower, then I do believe fees should be lower."
Pension plans such as CalPERS have lowered their private equity return forecasts for the next decade in part because of high valuations for portfolio companies normally taken over by private equity funds.
Mr. Fink specifically took aim at management fees being charged by private equity firms, noting that a typical 2% fee was necessary financially for new managers until performance fees started kicking in.
But Mr. Fink said now that private equity firms have "hundreds of millions of dollars" and company officials are buying "Bugattis and private art collections," it's questionable if the fees are still justified.
Mr. Fink did not criticize performance fees: "I don't think anyone should be against fees" when private equity funds perform well.
It was not clear if Mr. Fink was taking about conversations he's had with institutional clients in the firm's fund-of funds business or other institutional investors or clients. BlackRock has more than $5 trillion in assets.
Mr. Fink also disclosed Tuesday that BlackRock was several weeks away from making a major hire to head ESG efforts.
He said the election of Donald Trump has only interested more investors in ESG strategies.
"There has been a surge of interest," he said.
Mr. Fink did not offer specifics on how much of a pickup has occurred.

10 Inspirational Career Quotes to Motivate Yourself
Valerie David
Lifestyle and Career Expert
As you move along your career path, you sometimes need some motivation from an expert. Whether it's from a celebrity, a respected CEO with tons of experience in your industry, or just a person who's seen enough to know better, there's plenty of useful advice out there on how to achieve career success.
To help inspire you, we've put together a list of 10 inspirational career quotes from various men and women who dreamed big, worked hard, and reached incredible heights in their fields. Their wise words should get you thinking about how to boost your confidence, get ahead at work, and make the most of your career and life.
1. 'Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right.' – Henry Ford
This quote from Ford, the innovative industrialist that founded Ford Motor Company and developed the assembly line method of production, holds extra weight because of his accomplishments. Many successful people agree that self-belief is an essential component, but Ford's counter here is also important. Even when all other factors are in your favour, a lack of confidence can sadly become a self-fulfilling prophecy of failure.
In this context, 'confidence' is more than just liking yourself or thinking you have talent or creativity. Believing you have the skills to organise and enact a specific plan to achieve goals and manage difficult situations is called 'self-efficacy'. Scientists have proven it is the key to higher performance and success.
Researchers at the University of Salford found that people often project more confidence and resilience onto colleagues than themselves. The positive aspect of this finding is that it demonstrates the importance of teamwork, where group confidence helps raise each individual's prospects.
2. 'Never be afraid to recruit people brighter than you are, and never be afraid to recruit people who are different than you. That is sometimes hard to do, but incredibly powerful if you want to create a team that is really effective.' – Judith McKenna
McKenna's career quote taps into one of the big reasons management can be entirely dysfunctional. Those who fought hard for their positions often worry that someone may eventually usurp them, so they avoid promoting anyone with talent and potential. While this may preserve the hierarchy, an incompetent string of middle managers can lead to mistakes, failures and low employee morale.
Recruiting a culturally diverse team is what any company should strive for and has been proven to increase business profitability. Be sure to improve your intercultural communication skills to help ensure success. It's also important to embrace different work styles. You may have some personality clashes but hiring people with different strengths and social styles means you can handle a wider variety of challenges.
Many companies often fail to create this kind of diverse workforce because of hiring by committee. Rarely will an entire panel agree on one person, so once the strongest candidates are eliminated, all that is left are the blandest, inoffensive choices. Give hiring power back to department heads, or at least allow them the final decision after a committee puts forward several options.
3. 'If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat. Just get on.' – Sheryl Sandberg
Sandberg, COO of Facebook, shared this nugget of wisdom based on a job interview with the then-CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt. A graduate of Harvard Business School with an MBA, Sandberg had questioned why she should turn down higher-level jobs for a somewhat nebulous position at Google. It didn't fit her 'perfect job' criteria, but Schmidt convinced her that hitching a ride on a company's rocket ship was worth the leap of faith.
Sandberg took that advice to heart when she leapt on board the fledgeling Facebook to work for a then-23-year-old Zuckerberg. Her career is a testament to taking bigger risks for bigger rewards. Even if you aren't as lucky as Sandberg in choosing your targets, you'll earn valuable work experience for your next endeavour.
Getting in early on a start-up or a newly expanding company offers immense opportunity for career growth. You can learn and change with the business, often writing your job description along the way. Start-ups also value creativity and innovation and often have more progressive ideas about business operations and expansive employee benefits.
4. 'Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.' – Mark Twain
This is one of our oldest career quotes, but Twain's advice to an aspiring performer is still relevant today. Self-belief is a strong component of success, but the environment you place yourself in can also be a big factor. Read the biography of any successful person, and you'll find they had a supportive boss, friend, spouse or colleague that helped them along the way. Staying in a stagnant work environment or hanging with directionless friends who scoff at your ambitions can easily stifle your potential.
That's why it's important to find a mentor who is your champion as well as your teacher. Despite the common movie trope of an instructor who tortures their student into greatness, Twain felt that truly exceptional people chose a more positive path. Find a mentor who offers inspiration and support as well as constructive criticism and advice. Avoid anyone who focuses only on critique and seems threatened by your potential success.
5. 'Your career is like a garden. It can hold an assortment of life's energy that yields a bounty for you. You do not just need to grow one thing in your garden. You can do more than one thing in your career.' – Jennifer Ritchie Payette
The education system and the job market are still largely based on the idea of choosing one career path and sticking to it forever. The rise in globalisation and technology continues to challenge that 'ideal', however. A job you chose to pursue at age 18 may not even exist ten years later, and adaptability to drastic changes at work is now essential.
Changing careers at any age is a lot less rebellious and risky than it used to be, and many workers shift the focus of their career many times. You can also grab inspiration from multihyphenate celebrities who pursue multiple paths simultaneously. This could mean working on writing a book in the hour before your morning commute, or starting a business during a summer break from teaching, or even working two part-time jobs in two different fields.
6. 'The important thing to you is not how many years in your life, but how much life in your years!' – Edward J. Stieglitz
The average worker will spend 90,000 hours at work in their lifetime. So, making the most of each day rests largely on what you choose to accomplish in your career. Author and researcher Jessica Pryce-Jones discovered that confidence, commitment and a positive company culture greatly contributes to employee satisfaction and fulfilment. If you feel uninspired at work and don't trust the environment or management decisions, consider changing jobs or careers.
You may worry that it's too late to change once you're further along your career path. Stieglitz made the above observation in a 1947 book about ageing, offering encouragement to make the most of each year no matter what age you are.
If you're not ready to make a drastic move, change one thing in your current situation that will put more life back into your days. Focus on what's most important to you and what you want to accomplish. Ask about telecommuting or schedule flexibility, for example, to improve your work-life balance. Approach a supervisor at work about becoming your mentor so you can excel faster in your career. Set up a partnership between your company and a charity to facilitate volunteer work and contributions to the community.
7. 'What sets you apart can sometimes feel like a burden, and it's not. And a lot of the time, it's what makes you great.' – Emma Stone
You may not expect to get wise career quotes during an MTV Movie Awards speech, but Stone had some great advice to offer. She was addressing a teenage audience, where nonconformity and 'not fitting in' are common issues, but she noted that it applied in adulthood as well. While trying to blend in with the crowd can limit confrontation and anxiety, it also stifles your potential.
We often seek out jobs based on what skills we have that perfectly match what employers are looking for. It's important to consider your differences as well. Whether it's experience from another industry, perspective gained from being a different socioeconomic background than other candidates, innovative ideas about the direction of the business, or an unusual way of doing the work, it could be the key to that company's success.
Seek out jobs that will embrace your unique qualities. It's not always easy to find the right corporate environment, so be prepared to strike out on your own. Being innovative and setting your own trends are two key factors in being a successful entrepreneur.
8. 'The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.' – Theodore Roosevelt
Once you get good at your job, it's tempting to just rest on your laurels and coast along doing the same thing. While this can personally lead to boredom and stagnation in your career, a lack of innovation in the workplace can also cause the failure of the entire business. Just think of all the companies that got left behind by innovations in digital photography, computer-aided design, streaming video and other technologies.
Whether it's trying a new organisational process at work, testing an invention or starting a new career, mistakes will have consequences. It takes confidence and fortitude to work through those mistakes, learn from them and find a better path moving forward.
Remember that a crucial step to being a great leader is to own up to any errors in judgement or execution rather than trying to shift blame to others. Employees respect colleagues who acknowledge their mistakes and will work harder for a boss who is honest about their part in a project that failed.
9. 'Be prepared to spot growth opportunities when they present themselves—because they are the key learning opportunities. You'll know because they make you uncomfortable, and your initial impulse may be that you're not ready. But remember: Growth and comfort never co-exist.' – Ginni Rometty
Rometty joined IBM as a systems engineer in 1981 and became the CEO in 2012. She took several steps from technical positions to management, working in systems analysis, marketing, sales and financial departments until her ultimate ascension to running the company. Her achievements in a less progressive climate in a male-dominated industry must have been particularly uncomfortable at the time, but she persisted and succeeded.
Most of us have ambitious career goals when we begin our careers, but many factors can cause us to stall somewhere along the way. One of the keys to professional growth is lifelong learning, and Rometty here reminds us that it's not just textbooks or classrooms that can provide it. Taking on different roles even within the same company helps you learn new skills, learn more about your industry, and make more professional contacts that can help with your career progression.
10. 'Take criticism seriously, but not personally. Critics can be your best friends if you listen to them, and learn from them, but don't get dragged down by them.' – Hillary Rodham Clinton
One of the keys to being confident and successful in the workplace is to embrace constructive criticism. We generally consider it to be constructive when a colleague or boss offers a critique of your work in an effort to help you improve. Guides on good leadership typically urge managers to not berate or belittle employees, as a gentler approach usually yields better results.
Unfortunately, as Clinton has experienced a lot more than the average person, criticism doesn't always arrive constructively. As she indicates, however, we don't have to be crushed by the way it's delivered. Ignoring any and all criticism stifles growth, so it's important to pick out any common threads from your critics that point to a need to change your actions.
Picking apart the useful from the unfair can help you distance yourself from the critique. Get a second opinion from a trusted confidante who will assist in the process and keep you from spiralling into self-doubt. Achieving greater success after learning from a critique is also satisfying revenge for the hurt the remarks may have caused.

Introducing The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 Naomi Osaka Limited Edition watch
Roberta Naas / January 13, 2022
Tennis star Naomi Osaka wearing her new TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 limited edition watch.
With the Australian Open beginning today in Melbourne, Australia, it is a great time for TAG Heuer to honor its brand ambassador Naomi Osaka. Osaka, one of the most influential female tennis players, is also passionate about fashion and is a lover of the color green. To pay tribute to her and to appeal to the discerning customer, TAG Heuer unveils a collaborative effort between the brand and Osaka in the form of the Aquaracer Professional 300 Naomi Osaka Limited Edition watch.
TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 Naomi Osaka Limited Edition watch with pale green lacquer dial.
The Aquaracer Professional 300 Naomi Osaka Limited Edition watch is crafted in stainless steel and boasts an alluring pale green lacquered dial that recalls nature. The watch is accented with green details on the bezel and features diamond markers on the shimmering wave-patterned dial. Carrying through Osaka's love of nature, TAG Heuer pairs the watch with a forest green strap. Another strap in green rubber is also sold with the watch and that strap is made of 100 percent recyclable and recycled fishing nets to underscore Osaka's (and Tag Heuer's) commitment to the environment.
The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 Naomi Osaka Limited Edition watch boasts diamond markers, luminescent hands and a ceramic bezel.
The Aquaracer Professional 300 watch is powered by the brand's Caliber 5 automatic movement and offers hours, minutes, seconds and date indication. The unidirectional bezel is crafted in ceramic and boasts a 60-minute scale. The case back of the 36mm watch features Osaka's official logo – a teddy bear holding a flower. That logo is also on the black and green packaging and inner travel pouch. The watch, created in a limited edition of just x250 numbered pieces, is sold with a tool for changing the strap. Water resistant to 300 meters, the watch retails for $3,650.
Just 250 of the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 Naomi Osaka Limited Edition watch will be made.
According to Osaka, "… It is an honor to be able to create a timepiece with such an iconic brand with a rich history in watchmaking. I'm grateful to TAG Heuer for allowing me to fuel my passion for fashion and product design."
