The Dow Chemical Company
Incorporated in 1897 in Midland, Mich., The Dow Chemical Company is one of the largest chemical manufacturers in the world. Dow strives to combine science and technology to drive innovations that extract value from the intersection of chemical, physical and biological sciences. In this way, Dow can help address challenges such as the need for clean water, clean energy generation and conservation, and increasing agricultural productivity.
There can be no understating the impressive reach of the Dow organization. In 2014 alone, Dow had annual sales of more than $58 billion and employed approximately 53,000 people worldwide. It manufactures more than 6,000 product families at 201 sites in 35 countries around the globe.
Through this footprint, Dow has built an integrated, market-driven, industry-leading portfolio of specialty chemical, advanced materials, agrosciences and plastics businesses. It delivers a broad range of technology-based products and solutions to customers in approximately 180 countries and in high-growth sectors such as packaging, electronics, water, coatings and agriculture.

Few retailers have the size and scope that Walmart does, and that means few retailers have as complete of an understanding of the consumer as Walmart does. As the world's largest retailer, Walmart has a bird's eye view of virtually every significant market on the planet, so it's safe to say that if there's a trend happening somewhere in the world, Walmart knows about it. As divisional vice president, supply chain, Sherry Harriman is responsible for ensuring that Walmart's supply chain is up to the task of staying in front of those emerging trends. According to Harriman, all of Walmart's leadership understands how important the supply chain is for changing along with the trends.
"You have to keep adapting," she says. "Our customer is changing and has changed significantly, and the companies that aren't changing their supply chains are getting left behind."
Based in Regina, Saskatchewan, Viterra is a leading grain, oilseeds and pulses marketer and handler, and is also involved in canola processing. The company partners with growers in North America to help them market and deliver their grains in more ways and to more markets.
"Our company buys, markets and handles the leading share of western Canadian grain," Supply Chain Manager Fernando Lamk says. "For more than 100 years, Viterra has earned farmers' business with our expertise and commitment to service, tailored to their needs."
Red Wing Company
A supply chain, like any other kind of chain, is only as strong as its weakest link. Many manufacturers must depend on the strength of numerous vendors throughout their supply chains to ensure the entire operation is strong. That's not as much of a concern for Red Wing Shoe Company, however, as the company's integrated supply chain maintains tight control over virtually every stage of production. As Director of Logistics Dewey Rothering explains, Red Wing's vertically integrated supply chain makes it unique not only in the footwear industry, but in the manufacturing sector as a whole.
"I would say one of our largest strengths is that we have nearly full integration of everything we do in the company. We source raw material cattle hides which are tanned in our owned tannery, followed by shoe manufacturing in our plants, with finished goods shipped to our owned retail stores and mobile shoe trucks for sale to our many consumers in the United States and around the world," Rothering says. "We are vertically integrated throughout the entire supply chain from beginning to end."

Price Chopper Supermarkets
Nowadays, not only are supermarkets expected to have in stock enough of an ever-growing variety of food and pharmaceuticals that consumers desire, but they even are being tasked with getting the merchandise into consumers' homes. Previously, that last mile was the domain of the shopper, but now home delivery is being offered at five of Price Chopper Supermarkets' 135 locations. An alternative curbside pickup option is also offered at seven of the chain's locations.
"We have a fleet of vans which service these customers," announces Jason Kennedy, who was director of distribution services at press time. "Personal shopping has become a growing part of our business over the last few years since we started offering these services in 2011." The supply chain's challenge is to drive cost out of what tends to be an expensive operation by using onboard computers, telematics data analysis and route optimization.
Founded in 1980 as Precision Corp., Precor has become a leader in exercise equipment. Known for quality, innovation and performance, Precor provides state-of-the-art fitness equipment to health clubs, hotels, spas, fitness centers and private homes around the world.
"The major driver of our success is highly talented people who are drawn to a company culture focused on work/life balance," Director of Global Sourcing and Supply Chain Management John Fogerty says. "We make fantastic products that enable people to live the lives that they desire. The freedom we give our people in a great place to work allows us to design and make great products."
OGE Energy Corp.
Like many other utilities, OGE Energy Corp. believes strongly in customer service. For the Oklahoma City-based energy company's supply chain organization, this service goes beyond providing energy and timely maintenance to its residential, business, commercial and institutional customers.
"When I joined the company six-and-a-half years ago, the one thing I learned was you have to partner with internal customers, which are the other business functions supported by supply chain, so you can align goals and objectives and get moving in the same direction," Enterprise Supply Chain Director Sherryl Love says.

Marco's Franchising
Don Vlcek finds himself on the road quite a bit these days, but it comes as no surprise. Vlcek is vice president of purchasing and distribution for Marco's Franchising, the company that franchises Marco's Pizza, which calls itself the fastest-growing pizza chain in the country.
Vlcek meets with vendors and distributors, talks to franchisees and meets with other members of the restaurant's executive team in a continual effort to grow the company. So far, that endeavor has been a success.
"We're shooting for 200 stores next year," Vlcek says. That's double the growth the company realized in 2013 when 102 restaurants opened. The following year, Marco's Pizza added 155 locations, and the company expects to close 2015 with another 138 locations. Marco's Pizza has 641 restaurants in 36 states and three countries, and the growth plan remains aggressive in the $46 billion pizza industry, he says. The goal is to quadruple the store count over the next five to seven years, he says.

Transparency Market Research (www.transparencymarketresearch.com) has released a new market report titled "5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) Market for Food and Beverage, Dietary Supplements, Medical and Other Applications - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2013 - 2019." According to the report, the 5-HTP market was valued at USD 31.7 million in 2012 and is anticipated to reach USD 51.4 million by 2019, increasing at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2013 to 2019. In terms of volume, demand for 5-HTP stood at 136.4 tons in 2012.
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is a precursor to neurotransmitter serotonin and an intermediate of tryptophan metabolism. 5-HTP is an essential amino acid produced by the brain that regulates serotonin level in the body. Global demand for 5-HTP is primarily driven by the rapidly changing lifestyle of various population groups across the world. Increased stress level due to improper diet and hormone fluctuations have led to higher consumption of anti-depressant medications. Furthermore, being a plant extract, 5-HTP offers several advantages over tryptophan, a synthetically derived anti-depressant available in the market. These factors are expected to remain the major driving force for the 5-HTP market. Complication involved in the supply and price of raw material, i.e. seeds of Griffonia Simplicifolia, is likely to be the key challenge for market participants.
5-HTP used for dietary supplement applications was the predominant application segment, accounting for over 40% of the total demand in 2012. Demand for 5-HTP used for dietary supplements is estimated to rise significantly in the next few years due to increasing consumption of 5-HTP to maintain serotonin level in the brain. 5-HTP is widely consumed in the form of dietary supplements across the globe. It has a positive effect on pain sensation, anxiety, sleep and reduced appetite.
North America accounted for about 48.0% of the total 5-HTP market in 2012, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific is expected to be the one of the fastest growing regional markets in terms of consumption and production of 5-HTP. The region is characterized by the presence of numerous small and medium sized 5-HTP producers. Changing lifestyle is also anticipated to be a major factor for higher demand for 5-HTP. This has encouraged various manufacturers to focus on capacity expansion in Asia Pacific. Europe is the other major region with higher consumption of 5-HTP. In terms of volume, demand for 5-HTP in Europe is expected to increase at a CAGR of about 6.8% from 2013 to 2019.
Linnea SA, Chemill Inc, Jiaherb Inc, SanHerb Biotech Ltd., and Cactus Botanics are some of the major participants operating in the 5-HTP market.

Human Brain Naturally Inclined Towards The Supernatural
From: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,3-2342421,00.html
By Mark Henderson,
The human brain is hard-wired to be susceptible to supernatural beliefs as a result of tens of thousands of years of evolution, a British psychologist said today.
NI_MPU('middle');
Religion and other forms of magical thinking continue to thrive, in spite of a lack of evidence and the advance of science, because people are naturally biased to accept a role for the irrational in their daily lives, according to Bruce Hood, Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of Bristol.
This evolved credulity suggests that it will be impossible to root out belief in ideas such as creationism and paranormal phenomena, even though they have been refuted by evidence and are held as a matter of faith alone.
People ultimately believe in them for the same reasons as they attach sentimental value to inanimate objects like wedding rings or teddy bears, and recoil from artefacts linked to evil, as if they are pervaded by a physical "essence".
Even the most rational people behave in these irrational ways, and supernatural beliefs are part of the same continuum, Professor Hood told the British Association Festival of Science in Norwich today.
To demonstrate, he asked members of his audience if they were prepared to put on an old-fashioned blue cardigan in return for a £10 reward, and had no shortage of volunteers.
He then informed them that the cardigan used to belong to Fred West, the mass murderer.
"Most hands went down," he said.
"When people did wear it, most people moved away from them. It's not actually Fred West's jumper. But it's the belief that it's Fred West's jumper that has the effect. It is as if evil, a moral stance defined by culture, has become physically manifest inside the clothing."
Similar beliefs, which are held among the most sceptical of scientists, also explain why few people would agree to swap their wedding rings for identical replicas. The difference between attaching significance to sentimental objects, and believing in religion, magic or the paranormal, is only one of degree, Professor Hood said.
These tendencies, he said, are almost certainly a product of evolution. The human mind is adapted to reason intuitively, so it can generate theories about how the world works even when mechanisms cannot be seen or easily deduced.
While this is ultimately responsible for scientific thinking, as in the discovery of invisible forces such as gravity, it also leaves people prone to making irrational errors about what cause and effect.
"In most cases, intuitive theories capture everyday knowledge, such as the nature and properties of objects, what makes something alive, or the understanding that people's minds motivate their actions," Professor Hood said.
"But because intuitive theories are based on unobservable properties, such theories leave open the possibility of misconceptions. I believe these misconceptions of naive intuitive theories provide the basis of many later adult magical beliefs about the paranormal."

William of Ockham and his adherents also expressed strong opposition to Thomism, as did the later Jesuit Molinists (named after the movement's founder, the 16th Century Jesuit theologian Luis de Molina), notably Robert Bellarmine (1542 - 1621), Francisco Suárez (1548 -1617) and Francisco de Lugo (1580 - 1652).

The Culture of Conformism
Understanding Social Consent
Book Pages: 192 Illustrations: 2 figures Published: April 2001
Author: Patrick Colm Hogan
Politics > Political Theory, Sociology > Social Theory, Theory and Philosophy > Psychoanalytic Theory
"[Hogan's] goal is not merely to explain but to provide tools of understanding that will be of practical value to those who struggle for justice and freedom. Drawing from an impressive array of sources, his valuable study advances both ends considerably, no mean accomplishment."—Noam Chomsky
In this wide-ranging and informative work, Patrick Colm Hogan draws on cognitive science, psychoanalysis, and social psychology to explore the cultural and psychological components of social consent. Focusing in particular on Americans' acquiescence to a system that underpays and underrepresents the vast majority of the population, Hogan moves beyond typical studies of this phenomenon by stressing more than its political and economic dimensions.
With new insights into particularly insideous forms of consent such as those manifest in racism, sexism, and homophobia, The Culture of Conformism considers the role of emotion as it works in conjunction with belief and with the formation of group identity. Arguing that coercion is far more pervasive in democratic societies than is commonly recognized, Hogan discusses the subtle ways in which economic and social pressures operate to complement the more obviously violent forces of the police and military. Addressing issues of narcissism, self-esteem, and empathy, he also explains the concept of "rational" conformity—that is, the degree to which our social consent is based on self-interest—and explores the cognitive factors that produce and sustain social ideology.
Social activists, economic theorists, social psychologists, and political scientists will be intrigued and informed by this book.
"The Culture of Conformism engages in a very risky endeavor; the attempt to critically analyze the operation of culture through the lens of biological science. . . . Hogan achieves this remarkable end primarily through his insistent positioning of The Culture of Conformism as a radical intervention in political theory. . . . In providing an intellectual arsenal with which to combat the culture of conformism, Hogan has made an important contribution to political theory as well as set an example for scholars attempting to bridge the physical and social sciences." — Andrew Reynolds , Politics and Culture
"[A] remarkably lucid introduction. . . . Hogan is good at providing clear explanations of the various conceptual and psychological mechanisms that secure conformity." — John Trumpbour , Socialism and Democracy
"Hogan takes a multilayered approach in his thoughtful, well-dcumented discussions of the wild disparities that exist-and will continue to exist if left unchecked-among different elements of the world's populations. . . . Highly recommended." — Library Journal
"Given that capitalist society demeans and deprives most of its members, why don't they revolt? Hogan lays out this problematic with elegant directness and lucidity and provides a complex—yet simply drawn—explanation of consent." — Richard Ohmann, Wesleyan University
"Reflecting on the principles of government, David Hume was struck by the 'implicit submission' of people to the rulers in all societies even though 'force is always on the side of the governed,' a surprising outcome that he attributes to control of opinion. Patrick Hogan greatly enriches the Humean concept, unravelling an intricate web of 'modes of action and thought' that ensnare the governed in forms of 'implicit submission,' contrary to their deeper motives and ideals and long-term interests. His goal is not merely to explain, but to provide tools of understanding that will be of practical value to those who struggle for justice and freedom. Drawing from an impressive array of sources, his valuable study advances both ends considerably, no mean accomplishment." — Noam Chomsky
Patrick Colm Hogan is Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Connecticut. His previous books include On Interpretation: Meaning and Inference in Law, Psychoanalysis, and Literature and Colonialism and Cultural Identity: Crises of Tradition in the Anglophone Literatures of India, Africa, and the Caribbean.

A super cyclonic storm over east central Arabian Sea has put Kerala on alert again. The storm named 'Kyarr' is expected to turn into an extremely severe cyclonic storm on Tuesday. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued weather warnings for various Kerala districts.
Orange colour code warning, implying authorities to be prepared, has been issued in Kollam district for Tuesday and in Idukki for Wednesday. Isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall ranging up to 204.4mm has been predicted in the two districts.
Meanwhile, yellow colour code warning, meaning to keep updated, has been issued for Thiruvananthapuram, Kollam, Pathanamthitta and Idukki on Monday; Thiruvananthapuram, Pathanamthitta, Alappuzha, Kottayam, Ernakulam and Idukki on Tuesday. On Wednesday, the yellow colour code warnings have been declared similar to Tuesday, with the additional warnings given to Thrissur and Palakkad.
"Kyarr is very likely to move west-northwestwards towards Oman coast during next 5 days. It is very likely to maintain the intensity of a Super Cyclonic Storm till Monday and weaken gradually thereafter," states a weather warning report of IMD. Kyarr which will remain as a super cyclonic storm on Monday will turn into a extremely severe cyclonic storm on Tuesday. The storm has been predicted to lose its strength after Tuesday and turn into a very severe cyclonic storm on Wednesday. By Thursday, it will further lose intensity and become a severe cyclonic storm.
IMD and Kerala State Disaster Management Authority have put out strict warnings for fishermen prohibiting them from venturing into the sea. "The fishermen are advised not to venture into east central Arabian Sea till Tuesday and into west central Arabian Sea from Monday to Friday," states IMD. High swell waves in the range of 2.5 - 2.9 meters are forecasted till Tuesday midnight beyond 10 km off the coast of Kerala.

A stranger paid $50 for it at auction and I regret I have only this fairly low res photograph of it. Many people have admired it over the years, and I would love be able to offer merchandise and copies of it via RedBubble, but at the moment all I can do are stickers and phone cases. Still, I thought I should announce this painting's entry into the world of merch.


According to statistics, over 700 people died from bicycle-related accidents in 2017, and over 90% of those fatalities involved collisions with motor vehicles. The total number of injured bicycle riders in the past year totaled about 540,000. Bicycle riding is a perfect way to get some exercise while enjoying the outdoors, however this popular pastime can turn into a dangerous hazard in the blink of an eye. Bicyclists are granted the same rights as other vehicle operators, however motorists are the deadliest threat to people riding on two wheels.
Common safety tips like wearing a helmet and proper safety gear when riding are well known and widely practiced but such measures prove inadequate in the instance of a collision with a motor vehicle. It is therefore prudent to take steps to prevent such incidents before they occur so as to avoid debilitating injuries and potentially death.
It is advisable to wear bright reflective clothing while riding and equipping your bike with headlights and taillights in order to remain visible to inattentive drivers. Such simple precautions greatly decrease the odds of getting into an accident even during daylight hours.
People often find it convenient to ride in the evening or early morning, however doing so can potentially compromise their safety and visibility. According to statistics, 20% of bicycle accidents occur between 6:00 and 9:00 p.m. so it is best to avoid riding during such hours.
Always Take Advantage Of Safe Spaces.
State governments have started to take the needs of bicyclists into consideration by creating dedicated lanes and bike paths. It is therefore important that you ride in designated areas whenever possible to avoid any potential threats of getting into a collision with a motor vehicle.
Always Look Out For Distracted Or Aggressive Drivers.
If a vehicle is moving erratically or a driver is distracted, it is highly advisable to remove yourself from their immediate surroundings. You can pull off to the side of the road and allow them to pass and thus avoid the risk of getting into an accident.
It is best to obey all the laws, traffic signs, signals and lane markings when riding a bicycle, however that does not guarantee that other motorists will do the same. Pay attention to your surroundings and be prepared to react appropriately at any given time.
Bicyclists have the same rights as other motorists and they also have the same responsibilities. You should always be courteous enough to people around you in order to help traffic flow smoothly and avoid any potential accidents on the road.
In situations involving collisions between bicycles and motor vehicles, liability is typically determined by who had the right of way. However, every bicycle accident is unique in the sets of facts and circumstances that need to be considered in evaluating such a scenario.
If you or someone you love has been injured in a bike accident, it is vital to have your claim reviewed by an experienced Bicycle Accidents attorney Chino Hills CA as soon as possible to get the compensation that you deserve.

Exchange students should select courses according to the Faculty's regulations, procedures and rules. The normal course load for HKU LLB students is 30 credits (5 LLB courses) each semester or 60 credits (10 LLB courses) for one academic year. Students cannot take more than 36 credits of courses for each semester. Acceptance into selected courses will be determined by the Director of Student Exchange for Incoming Students, in consultation with the teacher-in-charge, if necessary. Students are advised to indicate their choices on the application form for preliminary consideration by the Faculty. For students who are interested to enroll in courses offered outside the Faculty, approval must be sought from the respective departments and final approval rests with the offering department. However, students are not permitted to choose more than 6 credits worth of non-law courses in each semester.
You are strongly advised to consult the Director of Student for incoming students and your home institution should you wish to change your intended courses of study on arrival.
Students are invited to visit the Faculty of Law homepage for details of the courses on offer in 2018-19 for reference at this stage, https://www.law.hku.hk/course/. The draft course list for 2019-20 will be only available on the Faculty's website in August 2019.
Course availability does change from year to year, subject to the availability of teaching resources and student enrolment. However, the majority of LLB courses will usually be offered. Exchange students are usually given more flexibility in selecting their courses. Hence, final course selection and registration takes place on arrival at the Faculty of Law after students have received the lectures and tutorials schedule. There is a two-week add/drop period during the start of each semester when students have the opportunity to attend the first one or two lectures before finalizing their study plans.
Note: The undergraduate courses are 6-credit in value, whereas the postgraduate courses are 9-credit in value.
Exchange and visiting students should communicate with their home institutions on the courses they intend to study at HKU before their arrival in Hong Kong. It is also your responsibility to keep your home institutions informed of any changes in your study plan here.
For exchange students under the Faculty-level exchange agreement, we will arrange official transcripts to be sent direct to your home institutions in early February (for first semester) and early July (for second semester) each year. Visiting students will have to apply for official transcripts on their own if your home institution requires it for credit transfer purpose. No matter you are exchange or visiting students, you will have to apply for official transcripts if you need one yourself.
For details on application for transcripts, please refer to the webpage of Academic Services of Registry.
Students should check with the offering lecturers to ascertain the means of evaluation and provisional dates of examinations in the beginning of the courses. In case of time clash, it is the responsibility of students to approach the lecturer concerned and arrange a separate examination.
Exchange and visiting students who need to provide examination results to their home universities earlier than July may submit a request to sit for early examinations and/or receive early indication of pass/fail. The request must be made in a prescribed form and sent to the Department of Law for consideration before the end of the add/drop period.

Here's a question I often hear when I speak to CEOs about defining the culture they want to create: "Is it better to figure it all out and introduce it to our staff as a completed document, or is it better to introduce what we can think of now and then let it evolve over time?" I'll use this blog to share my perspective on this question.
Times change and you need to change your culture to stay relevant.
It's too hard to think of everything you'd want upfront.
Over time, you'll learn new things that you might want to add.
If you waited till it was perfect, you'd never roll it out.
Despite these reasonable points, I'm actually an advocate for taking the opposite approach. I say that we should work on our culture with "an intention of permanence." In other words, we should put the effort in upfront to try to really get it right, with the expectation that it will last forever. At the same time, it's an "intention." If something comes up later that's so critical that it must be included, I'm fine with changing it. But we're not going into the exercise expecting it to evolve. Let me explain why.
If our culture is truly foundational to who we are and how we operate, it's not likely to change. In fact, in a changing, chaotic, tumultous world, it can give employees a needed sense of stability or continuity to know that something is enduring.
While it's no doubt true that our marketplaces are constantly changing, this requires us to change our strategies, our priorities, and our initiatives, but not necessarily our culture. What would change in our marketplace that would require a change in such foundational behaviors like honoring commitments, practicing blameless problem-solving, doing it right the first time, checking the ego at the door, or doing what's best for the client, to name just a few? Nearly all the behaviors (we call them Fundamentals™) we typically identify, are relevant regardless of the environment. They're simply an important part of creating a highly functioning organization.
As to the concern that it would never get done if we waited until it was perfect, my experience is that in a matter of 3-5 weeks, we can identify the Fundamentals™ that most drive success, articulate them, and edit and polish them enough to feel really confident they're exactly what we want to say, in the way we want to say them. Of course, our experience having done this so many times now in so many different companies helps to make that process faster and more effective.
By the way, when I first created the concept of the Fundamentals™ in my previous company, I wrote them in a matter of a few weeks and then never changed a single word over a dozen years of practicing them. Could I have made some changes? Of course. But I felt that the value of the permanence outweighed the extra value I might have gotten by rewording something or adding/subtracting one.
Our Fundamentals™ System is the fastest and the most effective way to clearly define what you want your culture to be, and it's the most sustainable way to have it live in your company for years into the future.

NOTE: Remember that these numbers fluctuate from year to year, so looking at the statistics from just one year can be misleading.
Successful applicants are appointed to a 2-year programme; the applicant chooses their F2 programme when they select their F1 programme.
Every foundation school honours linked applications so that linked applicants are allocated to the same foundation school. Others will honour them further, ensuring applicants are allocated programmes within a certain distance of each other.
Trent does not support linked applications at a programme level, however most hospitals are reasonably close.
Providing eligibility criteria are met, Less Than Full Time (LTFT) training may be undertaken. More information can be found here.


A Legacy Construction home is distinguished from other custom homes by a timeless commitment to craft, quality, and a sponsorship of our local environment--providing a home for you and future generations. You can read more about our team and our building philosophy here.
Building a home can be a often daunting undertaking, especially for first-time home builders. Our team is here to expertly guide you through the process and give you a home that represents your personal legacy. Our small family of quality craftsmen have been building homes in the Pacific Northwest for the past three decades, and provide a deep understanding of all phases of the home building process.
Construction→ ...we build your dream home on time and on budget!
Over the years, we have established close relationships with the talented building professionals our community offers, including architects, designers, engineers, contractors, sub-contractors, and tradesmen. Building a home is a collaborative process and we help assemble the best team possible.
1. WE WANT TO MEET YOU!
During this first step, we learn about you and your goals for building a custom home. We give you the opportunity to ask about us and take time to answer any questions or concerns about building a custom home. We want to see if LEGACY is a good fit for you . We work closely with you through the entire building process providing straightforward and transparent communication that will allow you to make clear and informed decisions about your project.
Quoting a square footage price for a home without knowing details is equivalent to quoting a square footage price for a new car, not knowing whether you want a KIA or a Mercedes and yet there are a lot of builders who will throw out a square footage number to get you through their door. Our preference is to get as many details as possible up front.... We want to see , your 'wish lists'.....( your Pinterest and Houzz pages if you made one and we highly recommend you do ) as we listen to the details that are important to you. Then, and only then, we can help you decide what parameters you have to work with for square footage and design, keeping your desired finishes in mind. No matter how big or how small your project is, understanding cost and establishing a budget early, even before design happens, is critical to guiding the shape, location, size, and amenities of your dream project. Your bottom line is our top priority!
If you do not already have a building site, or are just curious about what other properties may be available in our area, LEGACY offers full real estate services through our sister company Hometown Real Estate. Having both a licensed contractor and Real Estate broker working together, means you are informed about your property purchase from both a real estate and construction perspective! "Would this site be more expensive to build on?", "Are there any potential issues with set backs and easements?", "What are the advantages of sewer v. septic, well v. public water, natural gas v. propane?"...we can answer these and more!
The first major decisions within the design/build process are some of the most influential in the overall construction cost and energy use. Involving the contractor early within the design process has important advantages. Whether you choose to work with an architect, a designer or use a stock plan, we will guide the conversation you have with your design professional keeping your budget and amenities list balanced. If budget is a primary focus, we will work with you and your designer to make sure you get as much of your wish list incorporated into your new home as possible. If budget is secondary to your design, we will work with your designer to incorporate all of your amenities list in a thoughtful, sustainable building process.
We will walk you through the contracting process, making sure you clearly understand the when, how, and how much, each phase of the project will cost. Our completely transparent agreement process has left clients of LEGACY in control of their own budgets and timelines, and makes the daunting task of home building as simple as possible.
The fun begins! LEGACY prides itself on quality construction and craftsmanship. We have been building in the Pacific Northwest for the last 30 years and will walk you through each phase of construction with weekly updates and professional construction reports. If you are out of the region while your home is being constructed, LEGACY will send updates and photos of weekly progress and inform you of all job site activity.
As part of our service package, Legacy will return one year after you move in to inspect and verify your home is still in tip-top shape, performing just how you imagined. Our post-occupancy checks can give you peace-of-mind that your home will endure the test of time.
We would love to be the ones to answer your questions about building your next home! Please feel free to Contact us here.


Fiverr is different from other freelancing market place. You must have heard the oDesk or Elance market place where contractors and clients made profile. Then clients advertise their job and contractors apply. These two market places are complicated and depends on several variables and perfection. Whereas Fiverr is easier to use than these two.
Fiverr is a micro freelancing site and I couldn't recall any other like this now. In here the sellers sell predefined job (Gigs) skills for a fixed price. Mostly it is for $5. You make a profile and you tell what you gonna/can do for $5. So, someone will contact you if they need your help.
Sometime I am amazed to see how all these people are doing these works in such a low price!!! The jobs varies in several categories and you can choose it depending on what you are going to sell.
For a person who want to buy some good but cheap labors and want to make it quick (trying to skip job advertising, interviewing etc.) this can be a good place to look for, But remember you are only looking for a short term solution in here.
Online workers who are specialists in one or some fields, and are willing to make some quick cash with speedy skill displaying, then this is a good place. You can define your price for every skills and get highlighted for a good finishing touch.
Overall the price rate is lower but the chance of getting hired for small deeds may increase your earning in the long run.
Not actually, but Fiverr is kind of interesting to me.
Recently they have introduced Payoneer Master card for payment.
And they already had the PayPal for payment.
Why Hostgator Hosting is My Favorite?
Hi DJ, I like fiverr because they make it simple to list your gig. People will think okay they will pay just $5 and that means $4 (after fiverr cuts the charge) so what's in for me?
But the top rated sellers sell tons of gigs + they sell additional extras for $10-$20 that's where the real money is.
And because it's just $5, the payment is made instant + buyers don't hag much of the money. In odesk many people get jobs of 1000 entries and get paid just $5. Here the work load is less.
So overall fiverr is a cool place for jobs because most people can't even earn $4 per hour in odesk, but here they can earn it per gig.
In a sense Fiverr is cleaner than all the other freelancing sites and less hassle to advertise as a worker.
I agree with you that most people can't earn $4 per hour on oDesk but you have to admit that some people are getting continuous work on a persistent basis. This is where oDesk is a mile ahead of Fiverr. And you can see that some odd jobs are also done through Fiverr which I do not think goes with freelancing.
But this a cool market place for the specialist who can do at least one job perfectly.
