"Women are obsessed with the work" of a strong woman's gentle philosophy: Listen to women fans CEO and editor-in-chief chat work
by Abby 2015/01/14
Work is love made visible. Women fans have always believed that work is a love of the elephant, to see our work site, this week to listen to the editor said.
Female fans have come to the fourth year this road is very happy, often at midnight inspiration can not sleep, occasionally because the closing report busy to the head, with a new project everyone will be high morale forward out, "why" work on the Womany team is a happy thing? "The Women fans team has taught me that" life is about love and happiness, and work is ".
directly invite women fans co-founder-Zhang Wei Xuan, with the woman fan editor--audrey Kotzetzen, we three people, from five o'clock in the afternoon chat to the evening 10 o'clock many shops are about to close, we are still chatting, I sat opposite them two, looking at their occasional four-eye intersect revealed trust, Looking at them in the tacit understanding of each other, listen to them talk about womany work in the feeling, look at their eyes dream, I once again deeply love here. (Recommended reading: woman fan CEO share: Use corporate culture empower team!) )
Womany, no off, is a way of life!
I'm the editor of the Women's Obsession Internship program. I always remember the day when I joined the team of women fans, I really feel what is "blood". An avalanche of editorial affairs, a new plan, and the thought of something interesting will happen if you dare to do it! We're in a woman's office, almost every day in a kind of blood and excitement through, in the office of a topic can inspire a different point of view discussion, a news caused by our grief write more care, at every moment of female fans, every moment is a surprise and full of anticipation (but after a day, It also feels as if adrenaline has developed and has an amazing sense of exhaustion, and sometimes I wonder how it can be filled with adrenaline for years! )。 So the first question, I directly asked Wei Xuan and Audrey to chat with us, they in women's time, how to adjust their on & off state?
audrey:"in women fans, the mood has always been in the" emotional "state, whether it is happy, sad, angry, this space is absolutely feeling, especially aroused I want to do more things, I will say in women fans every day, are" feeling of the day. " 」
Wei Xuan: "I very agree with Audrey said" feeling ". Maintaining a high degree of perception is the ability of a woman's team to cultivate, and it is also a way for team partners to always give each other energy. And when it comes to on and off, I really don't think there is such a problem, because I think "life is not an office, there is no playground", especially our team, the majority of the partners in the working state of the few "On/off." I think, when you must deliberately to divide the boundaries of the On/off, it is easy to feel tired, so I often sing in the office, dance, let the work become a part of our life and entertainment, and work is also our life of the belief in the local industry. (Recommended reading: are you tired?) The law of balance between work and life )
audrey:"before I had to discuss with Wei Xuan" What is the division of On/off ", I think in Womany can do is" Womany is a lifestyle ", learning to use the angle of the womany to think things, no matter where you can do this practice. Just out of society, I have found that we all struggle with the dividing line between work and rest, so it's easy to get tired when switching, and sometimes even tell yourself in the off state that I'm on now and force myself to do something I don't want to do, so why not just let the "dividing line" be so obvious? Keep yourself in a more balanced state, and don't force yourself to switch work, but adjust as you feel. At first it is not simple, it is easy to feel that they have not rested, when there is such a situation, I will re-examine their life status, so that the work also has a life! 」
Wei Xuan: "I think this work and life these two kinds of things are flowing, just like the river." Sometimes it is very wildwater water, sometimes a pool of calm lake, occasionally slow down, occasionally run, I hope the team is like this always keep flowing. Work is definitely able to stop the pace, stop it is not a dialogue? "(same field Gayon: Design your favorite life )
The two of them are talking about a woman who is obsessed with not on the & off thing, I myself in this half a year actually also deep feeling, Wei Xuan said the life and the work actually will have the flow dialogue, actually not only with the cooperation unit, the team partner's dialogue, is with the life, with own dialogue, in the woman's each day, Lunch with the team at noon, often in the afternoon cake silently appear on the table (and then everyone will make a wild wish), the Cherub guides everyone to Jung (and then everyone fights and kicks) and the night feels right someone can sit in the office until two O ' Night (and then silently open a bottle of wine or a candle).
This is the womany that I've known, the women I've seen or Instagram seen on Facebook, are true, I used to secretly doubt that they do not know where the momentum, until now, I also slowly become a woman fan, and began to believe that for us, the work is not the responsibility of others , but a commitment to ourselves, a promise to create a better world together (the state of writing is written to a point in the middle of the night).
And I don't know why, I've always felt like running a relationship in a woman's time, from love into the running-in period (because the workload is really huge, we are pulling very high standards), through a friend to cherish, through the warm insipid, like with a can bring you together to grow the other half, and constantly explore new possibilities, Why is work a bit like a love affair for a woman fan? When the work encounters setbacks, those who toil, frustration, self-denial, how to face and deal with? Listen to Wei Xuan and Audrey to share with us, in the work encountered setbacks, they all how to face?
Work, to have love, to be happy
audrey:"Honestly, I have not to face the period of work (remark: Wei Xuan, this time with a very gentle eyes, secretly saw Audrey one eye), for me in the Womany road is very much like to climb uphill. When I encounter obstacles, occasionally there will be "God I have been very hard to climb up, now incredibly still have to cross a wall" such a rejection mood. But when it comes to chaos, I feel like asking myself, "What makes you tired?" "If you understand your tiredness, you may have the next move, and talk to that question:" Can I solve it myself? Or maybe it's my motivation to grow up? "If I can't solve it myself, I will ask for help from the team, in Womany do not have to fear weakness, I can raise my hand please, and everyone to chat." When the "advanced" encounter obstacles, and the team to chat, listen to their past experience, you can get the courage to climb up again. (Extended reading: Stress is the spice of life!) Four ways to embrace frustration )
Wei Xuan: "To say the truth, see the team partner luminous moment, will make everything become good worth." You will remember, will be moved, will shed tears, those moving moments will stay in your heart. We have also been crying loudly, those things go back to see, I will feel wow we have walked so many roads together. or read a letter from a reader, they have been because of love hurt themselves, at home in the storm did not dare to come out, in the family did not realize the dream, because Womany articles accompanied, and they grow up into a more courageous people, they find to know how to cherish their people, they go out of the comfort circle to overseas. It is these moments that I will feel, yes, that is the value of our existence, our mission, the slightest sense of frustration. (Extended reading: The team is the most important asset!) Silicon Valley's top venture capital Andreessen Horowitz's three people-consciousness method )
audrey:"one night, Wei Xuan suddenly sent a message to me, tell me all things will be white go, work not tang donate, to the end of all the efforts will be in a variety of different ways to produce ripple effect. The minute I saw the message, I burst into tears in bed. In fact, I still feel very tired occasionally, but that sentence in a strange way to heal me, I know all things as long as efforts, it will produce echoes. Most of the time we pursue things in a crash, but what Womany is doing is cumulative, far-reaching, and not just craving "now." So I learn not to rush to see the results, I also want to let bullets fly! 」
This half year, I slowly feel the work philosophy of women fans, in fact, it is really difficult to explain between the words, but in the time of working with them, I also slowly understand that this really is not just a job, women fans to create not only commercial profits, but value, more temperature, perhaps because of such a simple reason, So these crazy guys never really felt frustrated, more did not want to give up, as Wei Xuan said, when the reader because the female fans have changed and the unprecedented courageous choice, those real life, because women fans and produce drastic qualitative change, and become better, then everything may be worth it. So, What is it that makes these two women have such a strong and soft heart? What do they think of each other when they are two ?
Audrey: Wei Xuan is like the Big Bang of the universe, constantly subvert the previous world view.
audrey:"Wei Xuan is the person who has been evolving. Know her at different times, there will be different description, a beginning to know, I think she is a very gentle person, later she has another side is very strict (Wei Xuan at this time secretly smiled and said, I am now very gentle), I think afterwards, feel her, may also be trying to become a leader in her mind. In fact, very few people will think, like Wei Xuan so has been walking in front of everyone's role, it is also necessary to constantly try to revise the adjustment of courage. ( this Shi Xuan secretly interposed: And as leader, still can't be in a bad mood, everybody can be in a bad mood, only I can't. Because as long as I am in a bad mood, there will be a low-pressure gas field, affecting everyone's work. Once I had a joke around Audrey, and she told me you hadn't been joking for a long time. I realized that my own state would have a dramatic effect on the office atmosphere. )
audrey:"Wei Xuan is a person with many characteristics, she is very able to inspire the team, give us different direction to think. Her qualities are subversive, and she is like the Big bang, constantly correcting the previous world, or even subverting the old worldview, and then generating some newer, better ideas, or closer to the ideal direction. But the process is going to explode, and I'm thankful she's willing to make this drastic change and take us to a better world. "(you would also like to: change the Big World from a small place!) Three women entrepreneurs on the list of the rich world
"I think I'm the crew of a spaceship," Audrey said of herself and her fans. In Womany, as we sit in a spaceship to explore the vast universe, you can experience the subversion of those planets after blasting. I feel privileged to be with my partner on this ship and to look forward to the new universe we have created. 」
Wei Xuan: I See "Infinity" in her.
Wei Xuan is this talk Audrey: "audrey very like childhood me, personality is very blunt, very fond of reading, a little pretentious, to the world want to have more understanding, the human nature has more observation, we can make friends happy, won't let the cold, I see her in her former appearance, So I will be very strict and direct to her, I think she is my youth, even the invincible youth. My 24-year-old is not as wonderful as her 24-year-old. If my 24-Year-old has a team like this now, I certainly do not only this way, so I will be particularly worried about Audrey, because I know the time passed quickly. 」
"I see infinity in her, and I see Audrey growing up at work, from interns to being a leader now." She has all sorts of traits in development, and I can see what she can do better, even beyond. She used to be like an angry bird in a cage, flapping her wings but not flying out, feeling but not knowing how to act, but who was not on the rampage when he was young? Women fans of the team are emotional to the future of the social environment of the people, and we are such a rampage, and constantly grow together in the wrong. There are some things I do not know the answer, we go together to find. 」
audrey:"just came in my heart will have a lot of anger, before I believe in what I believe, put a lot of emotions in the heart, worry, helpless, uncomfortable. Wei Xuan told me: "You want to turn your emotion into passion, and then become action", all emotions must become actions. 」
Audrey went on to say: "The former has a big Taiwan university student more than 300 people speech, usually such task is not to find Wei Xuan is to find Tanya." But they wanted me to go, and when I first knew it, there was a sense of defense anxiety, "How can I talk?" Frankly, then will be afraid, worried that they are not a good speaker, not to tell the story, afraid of their own disgrace, let women fan out embarrassing, but Wei Xuan said content planning control are you are doing, how is not you to say? "We want to give the stage to the young. "That's what she told me. in Womany as soon as ready, the stage is over there, waiting for you to stand, ready, go up. Luminous! Wei Xuan's itinerary is very busy, but into the big speech that day, she still accompanies me to Tainan, she just sits silently listens to me to say, afterwards spends a lot of time to feedback to me. She allows me to be honest with myself and to be frank with the shortcomings that I don't want to be seen by others. (Hey Dear: Challenge yourself, do something that scares you every day!) )
Wei Xuan smiled and said: "For me, female fans as long as the" people "related things, is definitely ranked first. Sometimes I feel like, my relationship with the team is like a mirror, when the situation is good when everyone would like to look in the mirror, but when the situation is not good when everyone is afraid to look in the mirror, people are afraid to see the imperfect of their own, will want to escape, I will go in particular, but this process may be uncomfortable So now I also learn to make my mirror into a softer yellow bronze mirror, so that everyone will not be so stung. But I believe that whether it is for people or entrepreneurship, should be honest, I have a side of my own mirror, at any time to examine themselves, and then adjust to be able to become better. "(The same field Gayon: Successful entrepreneurs never say:" Do not know, do not, I do not havetime)
Wei Xuan This describes himself: "I feel like a gem stone, I can see they have a lot of beautiful characteristics, see people absolutely not only look at technology, before turning into a diamond, they may think:" I am a stone, why do you want to force me to become a diamond! "I'm going to spend a lot of time making them believe in themselves." 」
With them to adjust together. It is the happiest thing for me to grind out their brightest appearance.
We, who are fascinated by women, often describe Wei Xuan as a lovely and fascinating rebel character, but we all know how happy to be in such a team, of course, to do a good rebel role is not easy, listen to Wei Xuan and we share in the women of the CEO position of the most important three key!
1th is absolutely hard but happy to have to:
"Don't be afraid to be hated by everyone. What's wrong with being a guy who loves to see people? That is not necessarily a good thing, the team often described me as a love and hate role, so there is no bad, because the team must have such a person exists. 」
Audrey also said Wei Xuan is a willing to inherit the experience of the leader: in Womany learn when leader, Wei Xuan told me: "You don't just want to be a let everyone loves you." If you just want to be very intimate, very lovable person, in fact very selfish, you are only for their own sake, not for the sake of partners, to see his problems, to think can be a better direction. To have the courage to bear his grudge on this road, he may grow very uncomfortable, but this is the responsibility of leader, to make the team partners better " no matter where, I think should be held in this spirit." This is also in Wei Xuan body to learn the thing.
2nd, there is a huge and strong belief:
"I believe we've all been demonstrating that maybe we're doing the quickest, fastest-growing thing, but it's definitely the right thing to do," he said. I believe in the two of the Temple of the Master of a generation: "Dwell on, there will be echoes." "Don't forget what we've been working so hard to do here," he said. A speech can affect 300 people, an article can change tens of thousands of people, I completely firmly believe that this matter, no matter what setbacks. Many people think we are good, but in fact not, these things do not need to explain, and not important, as long as the belief in this, self-evident. 」
Audrey to Wei Xuan said belief also felt and hair: "Just as we all believe that the text has the power to shake the world, I have been in other people's words to gain strength, before entering Womany internship, I do not even know that I can become a writing worker, this is a writing really can change what place. Even when writing, talking to the reader and giving back to yourself. The flow is fascinating, and every reader is a part of Womany culture. "(same field Gayon: Time magazine teaches!) 10 key exercises to promote "text charm"
The 3rd is absolutely sweet but absolutely heavy load:
"Absolutely sweet is, I really feel too happy, can and partners to fight together, I have heard many large companies small company personnel disputes, defection, this is not interesting, we have to do is the new corporate culture, create a new culture, create a Taiwanese dream enterprise. My team and I believe this thing, let me very happy. 」
"And absolutely heavy is the absolute responsibility, I carry all the youth, including my own, Audrey, I have asked her a question:" When you see children of the same age to become big boss of special help, follow the world run, go to many countries, you will not envy? "I want to think for her, to make sure that the people in Womany can not get the stage she wants, can achieve what she wants to do, this is for their youth." I hope that every person's life in Womany is not wasted. "(Extended reading: adventure while Young, because of the fall )
Such a sweet load, let me come here with no regrets.
Wei Xuan: "My own heart will have a step version of the Wei Xuan, put in that and I dialogue, that is my vision of their future, not blindly blaming themselves, but imagining themselves." People will be busy, will be deadlocked, feel that they only like this, you must jump out of the box stand at a higher point to see things, the future to have expectations. 」
More than half a year here (hope will be longer), I found that because there is not only for the sake of the company, a shoulder to bear all the youth of the leader, so we more attentively, also rest assured in the female fans on foot to open up a new journey. This stage, not belong to a person's glory, but the whole team let woman fan bit by bit to radiate warm. Wei Xuan and Audrey in unison say, have these partners, is they in female fan meet the most moving force.
Wei Xuan: "The team shines, is my most touching moment." Seeing my partner on stage, I was happier than standing on the stage alone. Depression is often a big environment. Taiwan is already small enough, I believe that we should go out together instead of confronting each other, we should create an environment, or even create an ecological circle of new media, so that we can take a little long way. Having more understanding and friendliness is my expectation for this environment and Womany team. "
Audrey:"'s Most recent moment was one night when the office was doing a 30-minute writing marathon, writing a different view of the Liu Jiaoan incident, and I felt like I was surrounded by a great deal of happiness. You know the people around you are the people who want to say something, so many people in the things they believe, want to do, I feel a very warm hug around, is also a kind of energy. This atmosphere is not caused by a person, but everyone has lost something created, because there are so many people, in order to better the world to work hard, is a very happy thing. "(Recommended reading: Five articles, five views, one next step, inviting you to talk about the Sun Flower Queen event )
Audrey said here, shed tears, such tears are hot, to the identity of the editor of women, I also want to share with you Audrey once said to me: "Write down what you believe." "Because of her, I've also learned to be brave enough to say what I think should be changed, and to discover the different fascinating features of women's fans day after day." have you ever cared about a woman's obsession with women as a website with feminine awareness? In fact, we want to do not only the female consciousness, but also gender awareness, and in addition to gender, in women are obsessed with us as much as the world of the size of the event. Then, please Audrey and Wei Xuan with us to share their hearts of women fans!
audrey:"the first is to break the imagination of women's media, the second is to make everyone here can be very comfortable, you always believe in their future appearance has a better imagination. "
"I have recently realized that the imagination of women's media is very limited, and we often feel that girls should be concerned about something." But in women fans, care about fashion is no more than caring about gender or current affairs, These things do not have good or bad points, even if the feminist is very high, fashion should not be a derogatory word. These options are equal, we hope to create is, here you can see more information, you are aware of current events, also need to be in a lovelorn when someone patted you on the shoulder, you care about fashion, does not mean no gender consciousness, here there is no opposition. I hope that a woman's obsession is a place for everyone to be comfortable. (Recommended reading: The force is very Emmahuasen!) The stunning feminist manifesto of Paris Fashion Week.
Wei Xuan: "I think Womany is a very difficult to imagine, but really worthy of existence." Compared to many female media, we have no chance of winning on the scale of capital, but now we are really stronger. There may be a lot of questioning along the way, and sometimes it takes some of the things you don't understand, so you need to stick with it for a long time. "
"I also think that the woman fan is a fascinating little universe, is intimate, comfortable, and everyone breathing together to grow." Womany is not an upper-right system, we together lovelorn, long distance, together to watch current events, together to admit mistakes. Womany can remind you not only live in the historical, cultural framework, we want is very simple, is to remember to be yourself. 」
Womany are many,you are the only. We always inspire and motivate us to be better people here. However, the people who always say this sentence, how to adhere to this value, with what to encourage themselves? Finally, please Wei Xuan and Audrey share peacetime encourage their words, and also give each other a word!
Discomfort is the beginning of growth.
Audrey, editor of the Women's mystery
"A previous one months ' leave to go abroad, come back immediately face company many things, oneself feel rush, include a lot of excellent intern waiting for me, at that time I think oneself should want to grow quickly just right, but in body and mind all feel tired, so write down the mood at that time, while writing and their own dialogue, When I was done, I was relieved of the pressure and could face the matter. We often make a detour when we feel uncomfortable and sore, but we miss out on better possibilities. (same field Gayon:"Uncomfortable, it is the beginning of growth" to write a letter to the work of your hesitation )
Audrey to Wei Xuan: because she recently in the "gentle" practice, so I want to send her Lao Tze's word: "Weak and strong." 」
"It's not really about winning, but it's easy to overlook the softness," he said. Many people will tell us to have achievement, to blockbuster, to have lofty value, but the soft thing is very important, this is also the thing that the woman is obsessed with. 」
Wei Xuan always use Gibran said words to encourage himself: "Life is dark, unless there is a desire, all aspirations are blind, unless there is knowledge, all knowledge is in vain, unless there is work, all work is void, unless there is love." 」
"I used to encourage myself and inspire you, work must have love, everyone love the purpose is not the same, some people need money, some people need ideals, some people like the team, some people like to be Soho, no matter what your choice is, be sure to know their favorite, or in the work is very empty , I can't find the meaning to fill myself. "
Wei Xuan gave Audrey two words: "Pondering"
These two words have the concept of time, do not rush, cut is to be slow, to thin carving. Before pondering the first to have the vision, to observe more, "Dream big,but do small." Sent to Audrey.
Five hours, always feel that there are more can be asked to share, listen to Wei Xuan and Audrey dialogue, you are not also on the life and work have a layer of imagination? I also use Wei Xuan "pondering" to give everyone, alive every moment, big picture, small start, so that every day, have the opportunity to become your life the most beautiful day. I hope you can work harder to realize and have the courage to get the life you want because you deserve it.
And women are obsessed here, and never stop trying to create a better and more friendly environment for all the small voices, with you.

There's the messy way to brew coffee, and there's the Keurig way. Keurig specializes in single-serve home and commercial coffee machines. The K-Cup pod coffee makers from Keurig offer a fast, cheap, clean, and easy way to brew coffee.
In fact, sophisticated models brew a cup of coffee in less than a minute. And, after brewing all you need to do is remove the used K-Cup. More importantly, commercial K-Cup coffee makers cost only a fraction of what commercial espresso machines do.
But, if you're not sure about K-Cup coffee, don't worry. The entry barrier for this type of Keurig machines is less than $50. If you take a liking to the convenience of the system, you can buy one for your family, dorm, or office. So, are you curious to learn more about the best Keurig coffee maker for your needs? Great, let's start exploring.
We will begin the exploration with this section on Keurig coffee maker reviews. After reading this section, you will recognize the variety in capability and purpose of popular Keurig machines. In the section that follows, we will explain the important considerations relevant to buying the ideal K-Cup pod brewer for your situation and budget. Using the information in the two sections, you will be able to choose the best product for your needs from all the amazing products from this company.
The Keurig K155 is a commercial brewing system built for small to medium offices. But, die hard coffee enthusiasts would love to have this machine at home as well. The major advantages of this product are its speed and performance. And, the most significant drawback of the machine is its price. So, let's look at these factors in detail.
After filling the 90-ounce reservoir, the K155 takes about 3 minutes to heat water. Once the water is up to 193° F, the machine is ready for brewing. Now, all you need to do is insert your favorite K-cup and select your cup size. Then, within 30 to 60 seconds, you will get a hot cup of flavored coffee.
The K155 also lets you adjust the water temperature by ± 5° F. You can also program the available cup size, which are 4, 6, 8, and 10 ounces. The machine lets you feed the auto-shut off time. And, all the programmability features are accessible via a beautiful LCD display.
However, this machine does not plumb to a water line. So, re-filling the reservoir is a bit of a hassle. For a commercial machine, it should have had that feature. But, the K155 is way cheaper and easier to use than commercial espresso machines are. In summary, the K155 is worth the price if you're buying it for an office setup. For a personal K-cup machine, consider other options from Keurig.
The Keurig K475 costs half as much as the K155 does. But, unlike the K155, which is a commercial brewer, the K475 is a better suited for home use. This brewer accepts K-cup, K-mug, and K-carafe pods. This allows you to prepare single-serve cups, mugs, or carafes. And, it also has a host of programmable settings.
For instance, the K475 provides five temperature settings. This way, you can set the temperature high for milk drinks. And, if you're drinking flavored black coffee, you can set the temperature higher. The machine also comes with auto-off, auto-on, and power saver functions. You can also choose cup sizes among 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 ounces and carafe sizes among 22, 26, or 30 ounces.
The display interface that allows you to access the programmable settings is easy to use and well laid out. However, the water reservoir is only 70 ounces and you cannot hook it to the water line. So, if you drink a lot of coffee, you'll need to refill the reservoir often.
If you prefer using K-cups instead of freshly ground or pre-ground coffee, the K475 is the ideal machine for homes with three to four people living in it. But, if you're looking for a coffee machine just for yourself, we suggest you look at other options from Keurig.
For personal use, the Keurig K55 is the ideal choice. It costs less than $100 and it is an Amazon bestseller. With thousands of favorable customer ratings, this coffee maker is as popular as it is economical. The machine is easy to use, clean, and maintain. However, it is lacking in programmability. But, before we discuss the shortcomings, let us explore the benefits this machine offers.
The K55 has a 48-ounce water reservoir and takes K-cup pod sizes 6, 8, and 10 ounces. It has a simple interface with button controls. The buttons allow you to brew K-cups of the required size, descale the machine, heat water, and pour hot water. It also has an auto-off function.
But, unlike more expensive Keurig machines, the K55 does not have an auto-start function, temperature selection, and strength selection. So, you can't expect much flexibility in your brews. However, this is a machine for personal use, and once you get used to the taste, you won't have to tweak around with settings anyway.
Considering the product's price, popularity, and features, we think the K55 is a good choice for people who want to brew K-cup pods for themselves. If you're planning to use the machine for three or more people, the K475 is the better choice because it lets you brew a carafe of coffee with K-carafe pods.
The K15 is designed for portability. It's compact and weighs just a pound. So, if you're looking for a single serve K-cup pod coffee maker that you can carry along with you on your travels, the K15 is a superb choice. This mini coffee maker is also ideal for small kitchens where the counter and cabinet space is at a premium.
The water reservoir on the K15 is large enough to prepare a single serve. You can choose between 6 ounces and 10 ounces. The removable drip tray also gives enough clearance for cups as tall as five inches tall. And, it has an auto-off function to save energy and prevent damage from overheating. The K15 is available in five different colors.
The product's strength is also its weakness, depending on what's important to you. For instance, if you use the machine frequently, you should fill the reservoir before each use. This is rather annoying. The annoyance increases, even more, when you have to make coffee for more than one person.
Although the machine costs less than $50, you should not buy the K15 for the price alone. You should consider the utility instead. As long as the benefits and limitations of the product align with your requirements, you will be happy with the K15.
Like the K155, the Keurig K145 is a K-cup pod coffee maker for office use. By this, we mean that it is built for high-volume use. Think about this, a 30-person office would brew 60 to 90 cups of coffee every day. So, an office brewer experience in a day the same load that a home brewer experiences in a month. Naturally, an office brewer should be durable, fast, and efficient. And, that's what the K145 is.
The best part is that the K145 costs less than half as much as the K155 does. However, the K145 does not have the programmability of the K155. And, the K145 has a 48-ounce water reservoir, as opposed to the K155's 90-ounce reservoir. You cannot program the temperature, start time, or stop time. Also, the interface on the K145 uses buttons, not a touchscreen display like the K155 does.
In terms of raw functionality, the K145 and the K155 are on equal footing. However, the K155 is more sophisticated than the K145. The principal contention is between programmability and economy. If you value the economy of the K145 more than the auxiliary features of the K155, we suggest you take advantage of it.
Keurig has many K-Cup pod coffee makers at different prices. They have different capabilities. So, a product that's ideal in one situation may be terrible in another. In this section, we will help you properly align your requirements with the features of the product.
To do this, first, we will look at the benefits and drawbacks of K-Cup pod coffee makers. Then, we'll go through the important factors to consider when buying a Keurig brewer. Towards the end of the section, we will suggest notable models in the Keurig product line.
After reading this section, you will be able to frame your requirements clearly and evaluate a product's value based on objective considerations. This way, you will be sure that your money is spent in a way that benefits you the most. If you're ready, let's get started.
Should I buy a K-Cup pod coffee maker?
Keurig invented the K-Cup pod coffee maker in 1992 for office use. Since then the K-Cup system has become popular among home users as well. The system is popular because it prioritizes convenience, speed, variety, and low-maintenance. But, how does it fare against other ways of brewing coffee? Let's see.
Using a drip brewer is the simplest and the easiest way to brew a pot of coffee. But, with drip brewers, you should weigh the coffee to ensure consistency. With K-Cups, you can avoid this tedious step.
Now, if you like drinking specialty drinks, such as espresso, latte, and cappuccino every day, you may need a semi-automatic or a super-automatic espresso brewer. These machines make better coffee than K-Cup pod coffee makers do. But, the pod system is significantly cheaper.
And, among all machines, the K-Cup brewer is the easiest to use, clean, and maintain. Plus, Keurig alone offers 160+ flavors of K-Cups. And, most of the K-Cups cost less than a dollar per serve.
In summary, if you appreciate speed, convenience, ease-of-use, economy, and variety, a K-Cup pod coffee maker is ideal for you. But, these machines come in different models, each offering different advantages and disadvantages. So, you should be aware of relevant points of comparison.
What are the factors to consider when buying a Keurig K-Cup pod coffee maker?
Speed: K-Cup pod coffee makers are single-serve machines. So, consider the number of cups you brew back-to-back. For example, if the employees in an office use the machine at the same time, let's say during the 10 o'clock coffee break, the machine should brew an order quickly and be ready for the next order with very little downtime in between cups.
Cup Size: Almost all Keurig coffee machines that use K-Cups allow at least three cup sizes. For example, 6, 8, and 10 ounces. A customary US cup measures 8 ounces. Changing the cup size also allows you to adjust the flavor. For instance, the flavor is at its boldest when you set the cup size to 6 ounces. If you increase the cup size, the flavor becomes less intense. But, this is a very crude way of adjusting the strength. Cup size also impacts the number of cups the machine can serve before running out of water.
Water Reservoir Capacity: Water reservoir capacity is an important consideration. If you choose a coffee maker that has too small a water reservoir for your situation, you should fill the reservoir frequently. This is a pain. So, divide the water reservoir capacity with 8 to get the number of cups you can brew on a single fill. For example, the K155 has a 90-ounce water reservoir. So, this machine will make 11 cups before running out of water.
Waterline Plumbable: Now, there's a limit to the size of the water reservoir Keurig can put on a coffee maker. So, to cater to very high demands, Keurig offers machines, such as the K150, which you can plumb directly to a water line. This way, you will not have to worry about filling the reservoir. But, make sure that you have a good filtration system. Also, check whether the machine has an automatic decalcification cycle.
Temperature Selection: By default, the brewing temperature in most Keurig machines is set at 192° F. But, some machines allow you to change the temperature. In our opinion, this feature is good to have. But, it is not a must. After all, if you're sensitive to brewing temperatures, what you need is a PID controlled super-automatic and a $1000+ budget.
Strength Selection: Earlier we mentioned that changing the cup size is a crude way of controlling strength. So, some machines offer ways to change the strength without changing the cup size. This feature is useful when you frequently change the variety of K-Cups, or when many people, all with different preferences, use the machine. For an office environment, strength selection is a useful feature to have.
Interface: Keurig interfaces are easy to use. But, they vary in sophistication. In high-end models, you get LCD touchscreen displays. On cheaper models, you get no display, only buttons. This is a matter of sophistication, not function. So, this is a nice way to splurge. That said, an LCD display is extremely useful if you love a machine with good programmability.
Auto-Off: Since coffee makers have a heating element, it consumes a lot of power. The auto-off function saves energy by turning the machine off after a pre-set time from the last use. This can be as short as a minute or as long as a couple of hours. Almost all coffee machines have this feature. But, the extent of programmability varies.
Auto-On: This is the opposite of the auto-off feature. This function allows you to program the machine to brew a cup of coffee at a predetermined time. For example, if you want a fresh cup of coffee right after you wake up, you can set the machine to brew a cup ten minutes before your wake-up time. But, make sure you put the K-Cup. Otherwise, you'll get just hot water.
Okay, if I'm buying a Keurig coffee maker, what are my choices?
If you're looking for a cheap K-Cup pod coffee brewer, the K55 is your best option. But, if you want a commercial machine with great programmability, buy the K155. If you're not big on programmability, but you still want a commercial machine, consider getting the K145. And, if you want to use K-Carafe pods to brew a 30-ounce pot, the K475 will suit your needs perfectly. Lastly, for people looking for a compact, lightweight, and portable model, you can't go wrong with the K15. In addition to these models, Keurig offers many other products. So, if you want to explore your options further, be sure to check their full product line.
If budget is not a constraint and you want the best product, then the Keurig K155 is the best option. But, based on our reviews of Keurig coffee makers, you know that certain products outshine the K155 in certain situations. For example, the K475 can brew a 30-ounce pot of coffee. So, the K475 is better than the K155 when it comes to brewing coffee for the whole family.
Another example is the compact K15. If you prize portability, then no other Keurig machine beats the K15. And, if you're looking for a balance between price and functionality, the K55 is a great choice. So, no matter what your requirements are, there's a Keurig machine that's right for your needs.

IETF RFC 5691
RTP Payload Format for Elementary Streams with MPEG Surround Multi-Channel Audio
Organization: IETF
MPEG Surround (Spatial Audio Coding, SAC) [23003-1] is an International Standard that was finalized by MPEG in January 2007. It is capable of re-creating N channels based on M < N transmitted channels and additional control data. In the preferred modes of operating the Spatial Audio Coding system, the M channels can either be a single mono channel or a stereo channel pair. The control data represents a significantly lower data rate than the data rate required for transmitting all N channels, making the coding very efficient while at the same time ensuring compatibility with M channel devices.
The MPEG Surround standard incorporates a number of tools that enable features that allow for broad application of the standard. A key feature is the ability to scale the spatial image quality gradually from very low spatial overhead towards transparency. Another key feature is that the decoder input can be made compatible to existing matrixed surround technologies.
As an example, for 5.1 multi-channel audio, the MPEG Surround encoder creates a stereo (or mono) downmix signal and spatial information describing the full 5.1 material in a highly efficient, parameterised format. The spatial information is transmitted alongside the downmix.
By using MPEG Surround, existing services can easily be upgraded to provide surround sound in a backwards-compatible fashion. While a stereo decoder in an existing legacy consumer device ignores the MPEG Surround data and plays back the stereo signal without any quality degradation, an MPEG-Surround-enabled decoder will deliver high quality, multi-channel audio.
The MPEG Surround decoder can operate in modes that render the multichannel signal to multi-channel or stereo output, or it can operate in a two-channel headphone mode to produce a virtual surround output signal.

Seven-day strike for South32's Dendrobium coal mine workers
August 13, 2015 Newss11_admin Vicky Validakis
Workers at South32's Dendrobium coal mine are set to strike for seven days after the collapse of negotiations over a new enterprise agreement.
Mine workers will stop work at 6am this Friday after South32 and the CFMEU were unable to resolve the long-running dispute.
The agreements expired in April 2014 when BHP Billiton still owned the mine, which is managed by subsidiary Illawarra Coal.
South32 now owns Illawarra Coal and the Dendrobium, Appin and West Cliff coal mines after the BHP demerger in May.
CFMEU Mining and Energy Division South West District Vice President Bob Timbs said that the union had been attempting to reach a new enterprise agreement for the past 18 months.
"We sat down with the company again today and put forward some proposals designed to break the deadlock and we are very disappointed with their refusal to come to fair terms," Timbs said.
The main stumbling block is a security of employment clause which would protect permanent employment and provide future job opportunities for contract mine workers.
The union claims that in recent years, BHP and now South32 have increasingly made use of lower paid labour hire and contractors to do work normally performed by permanent full time employees.
It says contractors can be paid around $500 per week less than full time employees and claims that most contractors employed in recent times do not have access to conditions such as annual leave, sick leave, redundancy pay and top up accident pay.
"The company appears to be entering into a strategy of replacing permanent full time employees with contractors when workers retire, resign or are promoted, meaning the permanent workforce is slowly but surely being casualised," Timbs said.
"Around 20 per cent of the workers employed at this mine are now contractors and that number is considerably higher at other South32 mines. It's going to keep increasing unless we take a stand.
"BHP and now South32 are multinational companies that have extracted billions of dollars out of the Illawarra and they're using every trick in the book to dodge their obligation to workers."
Illawarra Coal says it is disappointed workers have voted to take strike action.
Troy McDonald, Illawarra Coal Asset President, said the company had been working with employees and their representatives to develop a new agreement since late 2013.
"We are extremely disappointed in this action, given that since we started negotiating this agreement we have put a number of proposals to employees to address their concerns," McDonald said.
"In addition, we have commenced the payment of a wage increase as a sign of good faith to our employees while discussions are continuing.
"Industrial action in return is both disingenuous and irresponsible.
"The mining industry, like many other industries in the Illawarra region, is facing a difficult business environment.
"Disruptive industrial action by the CFMEU would create further uncertainty for the company, its employees and the broader community. "
Agreements at South32's Appin and West Cliff coal mines have also expired.

like Split Lip and Falling Forward.
If you have this record, please contact me!
I'll add it as soon as I got it.
So, if someone could help me out with that, too - would be awesome!
Otherwise, I'll add it when I found it!


Let me tell y'all these allergies are killing me! It's bad y'all! I can go maybe 5 minutes without sneezing! And when I do sneeze I go crazy! If you didn't know I'm one of "those" people that sneeze back to back to back! haha My skin is also acting crazy! Through time, I've gone from having oily skin to combination skin, to now dry skin! I'm thinking the weather has a lot to do with it! So I'm trying out all sorts of moisturizers!
Okay, so in the last few months I've been trying out some beauty products and have found some good ones! I really wanted to share these with y'all because, when it comes to makeup I just do the basics ya know? I wish I was the creative type when it comes to makeup but I wasn't blessed in that category. And I know a lot of my follower friends are the same! You can also check out my last beauty post here!
1) MAKEUP REVOLUTION BLUSH/HIGHLIGHTER PALETTE - I found this palette on the ulta website, if you click on the bold parts of this post, it'll take you to the exact product. This palette is super affordable! The blushes are so pigmented and they color pay off is great! As far as the highlighters go, the only one that fits my skin tone is the gold-yellowish color! The other shades look a bit ashy on my skin tone.
2) NYX MATTE BRONZER - I have bragged about this bronzer many times already but I just honestly love it so much! It wasn't until I bought this bronzer that I actually started to bronze my face. I have swatched others and they come off a little greyish and this one is just the perfect shade, it's more on the orange side but definitely nothing crazy, in my opinion is the PERFECT shade!
3) MORPHE BRONZED PALETTE - This is my first time purchasing anything from this brand, but when I saw Casey Holmes using this palette I had to have it. It has ALL the perfect neutral colors! I have used it a gazillion times already and I purchased it like 2-3 weeks ago! I will say that they shimmer or foiled colors are a tad bit hard to blend, I've tried wetting my brush and using my finger but it's still a little difficult for me. Do take in mind that, again, I am not great at eyeshadow so I could totally be doing something wrong. I'll keep you guys updated on this.
4) TARTE LIGHTS, CAMERA, LASHES MASCARA - So this gem actually came as a free gift when I purchased the Morphe palette. And y'all....IT IS AMAZING! I started using it last week sometime because my all time favorite (l'oreal telescopic) ran out so I tried this and dang it I fell in love! It's definitely a little pricier ($23) and I'll be honest I don't know if I'd purchase the bigger tube so I'm going to make this baby last! I'm more a drugstore type of gal, but you know what they say, you do crazy things when you're in love!
5) MAKEUP REVOLUTION BANANA POWDER - I have a love and hate relationship with this product right now. Like I said, my skin has been super dry this week so of course that affects how your makeup applies. I've been using it just for my under eye (where I apply my concealer) I let it sit for maybe 2 minutes and then I brush it off, and it just makes my under eye so bright! I have used it all over my face and works great too! BUT with how my skin is right now, it just clings to my dry areas! Especially under my eyes because I'm constantly rubbing them (hello allergies) and you know the rest, so I'm staying away from it until I get my skin under control.
6) E.L.F BEAUTY SPONGE - If there is one thing that I highly suggest you try is this sponge! I've never tried the original beauty blender, I use to use the Real Techniques Beauty Sponge, which works amazing, but again I saw Casey Holmes bragging about this so I purchased! haha and WOWZA is this beauty sponge good! It works great either damp or dry! It's a little squishier (i'm great with description) than the real techniques. And for the price ($4) it's great y'all I promise! Try it!
7) MAYBELLINE FIT ME LOOSE POWDER - Another product that I have previously talked about! I love this powder! I apply it all over my face to set everything and it just leaves my makeup looking flawless! This is such an oldie but a goodie!
I hope you enjoyed this post! And if you try any of these products let me know how you like them! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for continuing to support me!

For UNESCO, Christian monuments are 'more important than Islamic ones: Double-standard attitude towards Azerbaijan
An agreement on sending a UNESCO mission to Azerbaijan and Armenia can be considered one of the most important outcomes of the February 4 virtual meeting of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, French President Emmanual Macron, President of the European Council Charles Michel and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. The meeting took place on the French leader's initiative.
The February 4 virtual meeting of the Azerbaijani, French, EU and Armenian leaders
Since UNESCO's position on the agreement reached during the meeting is of particular interest, APA news agency sent the following questions to the organization's headquarters:
- Have you started preparations for the visit of the UNESCO mission to Azerbaijan and Armenia? If so, what about the dates of the visit?
- What objectives of the UNESCO mission are we talking about? Does the mission is expected to visit the liberated Azerbaijani lands and the territories of Azerbaijan, where Russian peacekeepers are temporarily stationed?
- Does the UNESCO mission have plans to monitor the religious and cultural monuments of Azerbaijan on the territory of Armenia?
The response that APA received from the UNESCO Secretariat was defiantly general: "We are working with all parties to create conditions for organizing an independent technical mission of UNESCO within the framework of the 1954 Convention. UNESCO welcomes all ideas and initiatives by regional organizations and countries that may be useful. In this regard, the ideas put forward at the February 4 meeting can be considered and evaluated by UNESCO in the framework of cooperation with Armenia and Azerbaijan."
So, the UNESCO Secretariat has traditionally refused to give specific answers. Tue, not so long ago media outlets reported that this organization was supposedly going to send a mission to the region, but Baku prevented this.
Meanwhile, it should be noted that this issue is still irrelevant for UNESCO. As for the epistolary passage: "The ideas put forward during the February 4 meeting can be considered", behind it lies the desire of UNESCO to either drag out time or make some plans unknown to us.
It seems that the UN agency is not interested in highlighting the destruction of Azerbaijan's cultural heritage, but in investigating the slanderous allegations by the Armenian side.
Otherwise, during the period of the occupation of Azerbaijani territories by Armenia, the UNESCO leadership would not have ignored Baku's repeated requests to send at least one mission to the region and would not have called them 'politically motivated'.
At the same time, there is no doubt that even then, and even more so now, representatives of the UN agency were aware of the real extent of the destruction of Azerbaijani historical and cultural monuments in previously occupied territories of Azerbaijan.
The UNESCO staff is well aware that during the First Karabakh War, Armenia turned the Azykh Cave, one of the cradles of civilization, into an ammunition depot.
President Ilham Aliyev visited the Azykh Cave
They knew but were silent
Furthermore, the UNESCO staff is well aware that the Armenian invaders destroyed the famous Khojaly mounds, systematically ruined Islamic monuments, especially mosques, tombs, cemeteries, falsified ancient monuments, erased Albanian inscriptions on the Elysee Church, where the tomb of the Albanian ruler Vachagan III was destroyed, and looted other monuments that are the historical heritage of the Azerbaijani people.
UNESCO did not notice the destruction of mounds in Khojaly
They knew by were silent
The UNESCO staff is well aware that the Armenian occupiers destroyed objects that make up the invaluable cultural heritage of Azerbaijan, that they burned down 12 museums, 6 art galleries, 9 palaces of historical significance, looted 40,000 museum treasures and exhibits of unique historical significance, 927 libraries with a book fund, demolished 192 shrines, 144 temples, 67 mosques and 808 clubs of various purposes.
UNESCO did not notice the burned museums in Karabakh
The UNESCO staff is well aware that the only Bread Museum in Aghdam during the Soviet period was destroyed as a result of Armenia's bombing of the city. Almost 13,000 items of the world-famous Kalbajar Local History Museum and over 5,000 rare exhibits of the Lachin Local History Museum were seized and taken to Armenia. They also looted up to 5,000 items of the Shusha Historical Museum, about 1,000 exhibits of the Shusha branch of the State Museum of Azerbaijani Carpet and Folk Applied Art, as well as the State Museum of the History of Karabakh, thousands of items of the Gubadli and Zangilan local history museums, more than three hundred items of the House-Museum of Uzeyir Hajibeyov, the founder of Azerbaijani classical music.
The destroyed Bread Museum in Aghdam
We do not ask rhetorical questions and do not ask why UNESCO, a UN agency that is obliged to take care of cultural, religious, historical monuments and the spiritual heritage of all states, peoples and confessions without exception, has never condemned the vandalism, the cruelty of Armenia and its occupying army, which for thirty years have consistently destroyed the spiritual and cultural heritage of the Azerbaijani people.
We do not ask, because we understand that for UNESCO and its administration, Christian monuments are more important than Islamic ones. Over the years, this UN agency, backed by certain circles of political interests and mediators, has earned a reputation as a completely bureaucratic body that prefers the techniques of political hypocrisy and double standards.
As is known, Azerbaijan constantly informed UNESCO and other international organizations about the destruction of its historical monuments. Back in 2007, the book "War against Azerbaijan – an attack on cultural heritage" was presented especially for this UN agency. The book contains detailed information about the cultural and religious monuments of Azerbaijan destroyed by Armenia, which was a gross violation of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, the 1992 European Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage, and the 1972 UNESCO Convention for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.
What, in fact, has changed today? Why did UNESCO, which for decades "has not noticed" the arbitrariness of the Armenian vandals in the previously occupied territories of Azerbaijan, decide to send its mission to the region?
The answer is obvious: the new realities that emerged after the brilliant victory of Azerbaijan in the 44-day war forced the influential Western political circles to radically reconsider and geopolitically correct their attitude towards Azerbaijan.
It was one of these "gestures of forced recognition" that was the meeting with the participation of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, French President Emmanuel Macron, President of the European Council Charles Michel and Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, during which they agreed in principle to send a UNESCO mission to Baku and Yerevan.
In turn, Baku, which has never opposed the deployment of a UNESCO mission to the region and considers its position consistent and fair, expects only one thing from this UN body and its employees - professional work and objective conclusions.
…Because Azerbaijan is fed up with the policy of hypocrisy and double standards.

PATERSON – City police arrested 39 suspected hookers and johns over the weekend in a neighborhood where the proliferation of streetwalkers prompted one homeowner to erect "Just Say No to Prostitution" signs during the summer.
Residents and community activists praised the enforcement effort, but they also said Paterson police need to conduct such sweeps on a regular basis in order to eliminate a problem that has plagued Van Houten Street for decades.
The area of Van Houten Street where the prostitutes work has several churches, an elementary school and the main branch of the Paterson library.
Cheryl Holman, who put up the "Just Say No to Prostitution" signs, said she was at work when a neighbor called to tell her about the police crackdown.
The sweep was conducted Friday night into Saturday morning targeting Van Houten and surrounding streets, said Paterson Police Director Jerry Speziale.
Sixteen women and 23 men were arrested, police said. Almost all of those arrested were released within a day, police said.
In response to the chronic problem, one church on Van Houten, United Presbyterian Church of Paterson, has decided to remove some of its bushes because church members say hookers and vagrants use the shrubbery to hide their illegal activities, including shooting and smoking drugs.
Neomia Scott-Simpson said she was not aware of the police crackdown over the weekend, but noticed a change in the area when she went to church services on Sunday morning.
"There weren't any girls out on the street," said Scott-Simpson. "It's amazing that it takes a newspaper article to get something done," she added, referring to a Paterson Press story last week about her church's problems with streetwalkers and vagrants.
Meanwhile, Holman said she has ordered an extra 30 "Just Say No to Prostitution" signs that she plans to put up on other sections of Van Houten. She said the signs cost about $900, with donations from area churches and residents helping her cover the cost.
Holman has endured some backlash because of her activism. For example, she believes pimps tore down some of the signs she put up in August. But worse than that, someone slashed the hood of her convertible after she put up the signs.

After orthodontic treatment with fixed braces, retainers are usually provided to minimize the chance of relapse, or unwanted movements of the newly straightened teeth. Most patients are given clear plastic retainers to prevent relapse. Because the face continues to grow throughout life, a small amount of relapse can occur if patients stop wearing their retainers altogether. Therefore, patients who want to ensure that their teeth remain as straight as when their fixed braces were removed, may choose to continue wearing their retainers every other night on an indefinite basis.
Clear plastic retainers are provided when you finish active orthodontic treatment. The big advantage of these retainers is that they are only worn at night time! Click on the link below for detailed instructions.
In some cases, a small wire is ´glued´ to the back of the front teeth where no one will see it to keep the teeth straight. However, just like fixed braces, they can over time become damaged or detached from the teeth resulting in some tooth movement. Patients might need to wear an additional ´back-up´ plastic retainer just in case. As the wire prevents conventional flossing, "super-floss" which has a threader at one end, is used instead.

Nothing for sure is known of these McLellans before they immigrated from Ireland. Presumably the family had migrated from Scotland to northern Ireland about a century before, with many Scots, because of incentives provided by James I to populate Ireland with protestants. This group then suffered persecution after the Restoration, after 1660, since Charles II was a closet Catholic, sympathetic to Catholics. In the 1670s the Test Act was passed that insisted on membership in the Church of England for many offices and privileges; "non-conformists" were, in this case, just as suspect as catholics.
There is a regular statement by nineteenth-century histories that Bryce and his cousins Hugh, James, and Mary were descended from a Sir Hugh McLellan, but considering all of the wishful Victorian genealogy out there, and the utter lack of any documentation attached to these statements, I'll believe it when I see it.
Bryce immigrated to Maine from Ballymoney, Country Antrim, Ireland. He was a weaver and a ship's carpenter. He was part of a wave of migrants that started in 1718 with group brought over by the Rev. James McGregor of Aghadowey Presbyterian Church. This was the first wave of the Scots-irish "Great Migration," which was actually a series of waves of migrants, culminating in the greatest wave during the early 1770s.
The group that went north to Casco included Bryce.
Aghadowey is just across the Bann River from Balleymoney, only 3 or 4 miles away. Most narratives, such as Bourne's, say he arrived in Wells about 1720. Bryce was for sure there in the summer of 1720 when he received a grant of land in Wells. After he arrived he joined Wells Congregational Church. He appears on a list of inhabitants in wells in Spring of 1726; a series of conflicts with native indians had taken place over the previous few years.
He apparently had a hard time there. In 1729, he and his family moved to Falmouth (now Portland), and he built a house in 1731 on York/Fore St. Here the rest of his children were born, starting with Susannah. Judging by the dearth of records for several earlier children, perhaps some of the earlier ones had died young.
