Generally, renting a dumpster in Mount Laurel is an affordable means to remove debris from a construction, remodeling, or clean out job. As long as you get price quotes so you can compare your options, you need to discover that you could get a great deal on a dumpster rental in Mount Laurel.
Most cities or municipalities do not have many regulations regarding dumpster rental in Mount Laurel as long as you keep the dumpster entirely on your own property during the rental period. Should you must place your container on the road at all, you will likely have to obtain a permit from the correct building permit office in your town.
Most dumpster rental companies in Mount Laurel will take care of procuring this permit for you if you rent from them. Be sure that in case you're planning to place the dumpster on the road, the business has made the proper arrangements. You must also guarantee that you get the permit in a timely manner and at the correct price. If you thought the dumpster business was getting a permit and they did not, you will be the one who will need to pay the fine that is issued by the authorities.
If you're seeking to rent a dumpster in Mount Laurel, one of your primary concerns is going to be cost. There are generally two pricing options available when renting a dumpster in Mount Laurel. Flat rate is pricing determined by the size of the dumpster, not the quantity of stuff you put in it. Per ton pricing will bill you based on the weight you need hauled.
One sort of pricing structure isn't always more expensive than the other. Should you know just how much stuff you need to throw away, you might get a better deal with per short ton pricing. On the other hand, flat rate pricing can assist you to keep a limitation on prices when you're dealing with unknown weights. Whether you regularly rent dumpsters for work or just need a one-time rental for a project around the house, you need to look around to find the best rental costs predicated on your demands.
Most dumpster rental companies in Mount Laurel commonly rent containers for a normal rate for 7 days, although most one time customers end up keeping their container an average of three and a half days. When you call to reserve the container, conversation with the customer support representative about the period of time you think you will need.
In case it turns out that your project takes longer than you expected, just phone the dumpster company to describe. Most companies will charge you on a per-day basis after your first seven days. It is important to communicate this additional need as soon as you know you've it since most dumpster businesses have a limited number of bins that could already be allowed. Most companies will work together with you to accommodate your extra rental time. Should you think you will want the dumpster for an extra week or more, be sure to mention that; rates may change based on a longer time period.
Dumpster rental businesses that charge flat rates in many cases are the very best alternatives for contractors and home owners. When you make use of a business that charges a flat rate, you can expect at least two benefits.
Paying a flat rate normally means that you get to prevent any hidden fees and charges. Businesses that don't charge flat fees may include additional charges for basic services like dropping off the dumpster. Keep in mind, however, that you still may need to pay extra if you want to include particular items and stuff in the dumpster.
Having a flat rate also means you can prepare your payment ahead of time. This really is especially useful when you need another person to make the payment for you. When you understand the exact amount, you can compose a check in advance. Afterward, anyone can pay the rental business when its driver drops off the dumpster.
You can put most kinds of debris into a dumpster rental in Mount Laurel. There are, nevertheless, some exceptions. For instance, you cannot put chemicals into a dumpster. That includes motor oil, paints, solvents, automotive fluids, pesticides, and cleaning agents. Electronic Equipment and batteries are also banned. If something presents an environmental hazard, you probably cannot set it in a dumpster. Contact your rental company if you are uncertain.
That leaves most kinds of debris that you can set in the dumpster, comprise drywall, concrete, lumber, and yard waste. Just about any kind of debris left from a building job can go in the dumpster.
Certain kinds of satisfactory debris, nevertheless, may require additional fees. If you intend to throw away used tires, mattresses, or appliances, you should request the rental company whether you need to pay another fee. Adding these to your dumpster may cost anywhere from $25 to $100, depending on the thing.
What if I want my dumpster in Mount Laurel picked up early?
When you make arrangements to rent a dumpster in Mount Laurel, part of your rental agreement includes a specified length of time you're allowed to use the container. You normally base this time on how long you think your project might take. The larger the job, the the more time you will need the dumpster. Most dumpster rental businesses in Mount Laurel give you a rate for a specific amount of days. Should you exceed that quantity of days, you'll pay an additional fee daily. In case the job goes more quickly than expected, you may be ended with the dumpster sooner than you anticipated.
If that is true, give the dumpster company a call and they will likely come pick your container up early; this will allow them to rent it to someone else more quickly. You normally will not get a discount on your rate if you ask for early pickup. Your rental fee includes 7 days (or no matter your term is), whether you use them all or not.
What Size Dumpster Should I Get for a Residential Clean Out in Mount Laurel?
Residential clean outs typically do not demand large dumpsters. The size that you simply require, however, will be contingent on the size of the endeavor.
When picking a dumpster, though, it's frequently a good idea to ask for a size bigger than that which you believe you'll need. Unless you are a professional, it's tough to gauge the precise size required for your project. By getting a slightly bigger size, you spend a little more money, but you also avoid the possibility that you will run out of room. Renting a bigger dumpster is nearly always cheaper than renting two little ones.

'Redneck Hipster' Drawings Juxtapose Two Diametrically Opposed Subcultures
The subcultures somewhat meaninglessly signified by the words "redneck" and "hipster" may seem miles apart, culturally, but they do have a few things in common: tattoos, beer in cans, a fondness for skulls, and the latter's ongoing appropriation of the former. In what seems like a joke on both groups — although the artist claims to have "no goal… in mind, just wanted to [do] some funny shit and go balls to the wall" — Orlando-based designer and illustrator Joshua M. Smith used these shared elements to create the series Redneck Hipster (spotted via Design Taxi). Below, you'll see a big cat's face bearing the words "fuck Helvetica, use Comic Sans"; a tattoo-like anchor design that proclaims, "I am not a sailor, but hipsters eat this shit up"; and plenty of other irreverent cross-cultural typography that's sure to make you smile.

Anyhow, happy new year everyone, Lots to be going on in 2012. 2011 wasn't a bad year as such, I wouldn't say it was a good one either. I think everyone has learnt new things from 2011, to bring into 2012. I know I have. It's the time when we forget all the crap we got last year and move forward, on to better things. Last year was great though, I worked with two different bands, I recorded a few tracks to YouTube and I got a fair few viewers on them. I'm looking into getting an album out this year, and hopefully I'll do that. As you probably all know, I'm releasing 'Do you remember you?' as a free download on the 20th January, so be sure to check that out. I'm sorry I didn't update the recording diary, but i didn't really do much in terms of recording… Getting back on track today though and hopefully gonna record some keyboard for the track.


Brands are how organizations relate to consumers. Marketers create the brand, yet in reality, a brand is what consumers say it is. Customers engage with brands through the way they think, the way they feel, the way they behave and the way they live the brand. In June 2017, Australian Catholic University began to roll out its new branding strategy. As a student, you are living this 'rebranding' of the University. Your task is to use this unfolding case study to critically evaluate the branding exercise of Australian Catholic University and the associated marketing communications from your perspective as a current student and through the eyes of a potential student.
1) Was a rebranding needed?
2) In what ways has the brand been changed?
3) How effective are these changes?
4) How is the University positioning itself?
5) How is this positioning being communicated?
6) What does making 'impact through empathy" mean?
7) Is the communication working?
8) How well is the 'rebranding' working?
9) Will the branding make any difference to students selecting a University?
10) What recommendations would you make?

"It's not the despair, Laura. I can stand the despair. It's the hope." - Mr. Stimpson


Tesla Motors made a big media splash with its plans for a giant battery plant, nicknamed the Gigafactory. The goal is to push down battery prices. Interestingly, Tesla is already supplying batteries to sister company and giant rooftop installerSolarCity Corp for pairing with rooftop solar systems. The problem is, financially speaking, pairing a battery with solar may not be the best idea for your home -- at least not yet. Still, as an investor, there's good reason to watch this developing trend.
Not aloneIn the middle of 2014, SunPower Corporation announced it was working with homebuilder KB Hometo offer home buyers the chance to install batteries along with its rooftop solar systems. The idea makes a lot of sense. Rooftop systems generally generate more power than a home uses in the middle of the day, but little or no power in the late afternoon and at night -- when power is most in demand. So, if you add a battery to the equation, customers can store the excess power from the middle of the day and use it later.
That's the same plan SolarCity is pushing with its Tesla battery packs. Only SolarCity, which is only selling the batteries in select California markets right now, is going one step further. It suggests customers can benefit from charging the battery from the grid when electricity is cheaper, and using that juice at night when power is more expensive. Clearly, that logic only works where variable rate structures are in place, but it's a compelling sales pitch. Of course, those Tesla batteries can be paired with a solar system, too.
Ahead of its timeBut does it really make sense for the Average Joe to do this? The answer is most likely not. Even Elon Musk, a key player at both SolarCity and Tesla, puts large-scale pairing of solar and batteries out five to 10 years. And the reason is cost.
Yes, battery prices are coming down, and they should fall even further once Tesla's Gigafactory is up and running, flooding the market with batteries. But GTM Research found that the rate of return for residential customers was between 6% and 14% for solar systems paired with storage in 2014. Senior Energy Storage Analyst Ravi Manghani told Utility Divethat "financing costs would exceed the benefits in some areas." And if a variable rate plan isn't offered, then there's no benefit to avoiding peak usage times for those customers without solar systems. But you should still keep a close eye on this space.
GTM found that business customers can get returns of between 16% and 23% from this strategy. There are numerous reasons for this, from costs that business customers face that individuals don't to usage patterns. But that return is more than enough to make an investment in batteries worth the expense. And, thus, for the solar-plus-storage market to keep developing. Since SunPower and SolarCity work with both individual homeowners and businesses, there are clear opportunities for growth in this segment right now.
Source: Walmart Corporate, via Wikimedia Commons.
It could be the futureAs SolarCity and SunPower build up additional expertise on the commercial side, this pair should be able to streamline the installation processes and further reduce costs, like they've done on the pure solar front. That, in turn, will make the day when solar-plus-storage works for most homeowners even closer. And the potential customer counts on the residential customer side are huge, particularly if SolarCity and SunPower can retrofit older systems with the gear -- effectively providing a built-in customer base.
So, if you are installing a rooftop solar system on your home, be careful to ensure it's worth the added expense if they offer you a battery. You might find you're better off waiting. But if you are investing in SolarCity or SunPower, keep a close eye on this developing niche. It could lead to expanded sales opportunities down the line as what works for commercial customers starts to make more sense for individuals.
It won't be a game-changer for either company, but it will give them a chance to increase revenues and perhaps margins. And that will make their businesses stronger.

What real mums have to say about your texting-while-breastfeeding guilt trip
Renee Liang | Guest writer
A parenting expert has warned mothers against 'brexting' or using their phones while breastfeeding. Renee Liang, a paediatrician, poet and mother, responds.
First there was Brangelina, then Brexit and Megxit. And now, apparently, there's Brexting.
Brexting, the Herald on Sunday solemnly informed us, is the unpardonable sin of texting while breastfeeding. Don't click – I'll cover its main points while laughing angrily.
Clinical psychologist Dr Natalie Flynn worries that texting could distract mothers from the crucial task of holding their infant's gaze as they feed. I don't remember my newborn making a lot of eye contact, but admittedly things were hazy back then. So I ignored my now school-age kids and used my phone to ask Facebook if brexting was bad.
I got a heap of laughing-face emojis. Also eyeroll emojis. And comments such as, "What eye contact? My baby has her eyes closed the whole time!" and, "I feel that a person with first hand experience of feeding an infant would never pose this question."
Here's the thing: I love my phone. I use it to keep track of what my family are doing, to look up everything from scientific papers to what time is best to call London, to chat to friends I can't see in person but still love from the bottom of my heart, and to text dad to ask whether he wants me to buy him some great prawns I just saw. Sometimes I even use my phone to make a call. My phone keeps me connected. Technology, right? It's what we use these days to do the same things humans have always done.
I can't put it more clearly than one mum who responded: "If you've been up all fucking night, you're losing the plot and sleep deprived and need support and solidarity. If you need help because breastfeeding and mothering is really hard and you wonder if you're doing it right, [those experts can] fuck off. Facebook is the village we need and breastfeeding is a great time to check it."
Chimed in another: "And you can log in and see that other mums are up with their babies at 2am. And you might feel less alone."
After I gave birth, a friend joined me to an online forum for Kiwi mums. At first I was dubious, but then I realised its power. Logging on in the early hours of the morning, with that dark stillness outside and no sound but the rhythmical suckling of my baby (eyes closed), I watched as a post appeared from someone I didn't know, wanting advice about her infant who wasn't latching. After a few seconds, an answer appeared from another stranger. Then another. By a minute, there were five comments, lighting up from all around our long white cloud (see what I did there). Some gave ideas, most just offered support and sympathy. I had found it. The Village. People gathering virtually around you. It often became real-life friendships.
By contrast, we need parent-shaming from self-appointed "experts" like we need a battery-powered pepper grinder – it's unnecessary and quickly becomes useless. Such articles are patronising and unnecessary. And I sometimes struggle to believe they're genuinely well-meant advice.
There's an entire industry built on the "stay mean, keep 'em keen" philosophy of making parents feel so guilty they'll buy anything to be better parents. Let's assume the best, and that it's a coincidence that Dr Flynn's new parenting book is prominently mentioned in the fourth line of the serious news article, but there is no shortage of people using scientific pseudobabble to sell things.
Speaking of science, there's very little actual evidence presented in this article: most of it is reckons, such as Karen from Plunket helpfully suggesting that "mums [should] take every opportunity to be really present with their baby and that can be difficult when they are on the phone." No shit, Karen. There are quite a lot of things a parent needs to do to, you know, parent, and some of that might involve a phone. But more on that soon.
The sole scientific study mentioned is the Still Face experiment, done at Harvard in the awfully recent 1970s. In this experiment, mothers who were well bonded to their infants were instructed to deliberately blank their facial expression for three minutes. The infants responded by wriggling more and trying everything they could to attract their mum's attention. When that failed, they gave up and turned their faces away from their mums.
Friends, this is not "proof" that infants are traumatised by three minutes of inattention. This study is about social cognition and how even very young infants can control their behaviours – it's like catnip for behavioural scientists. In fact, this famous technique is still used, and it's been proven that there are cultural differences in response.
To really prove that texting while breastfeeding leads to long-term harms, say, in infant development or socialisation, you would need to track children over time, in, say, a longitudinal study. I checked in with my colleagues who work in this field, and there's still very little published research (more is coming) – definitely not enough that anyone can say with certainty that being on the phone while breastfeeding is harmful. In fact, a Pubmed search turned up (surprise!) many scholarly articles about the utility of supporting breastfeeding mothers by text. There was also an article supporting the idea that having access to social media shielded mothers from stress.
Here's my revolutionary concept: mothers are people! We are not just milk production machines sitting on a couch going "moo". We are real people, with real lives. And while we're at it, can we please ignore all articles pointing the finger at Mothers (capital M) as if there isn't another partner, grandparent, friend or flatmate in the parenting equation. Has any dad, ever, been told off for having a phone while they bottle feed? Let me know if you hear of one and I'll buy them coffee.
Mothers are people. We are not bodies to be policed or minds to be "educated". We have lives, and it might seem odd, but we continue our lives outside of being attached to a breast. But having a phone may actually aid us in multitasking, which no study is needed to tell us we are terribly good at.
Here is my Facebook crowdsourced list of Things People Have Done With Phones While Breastfeeding:
written a memoir of parenting (OK, that might have been me)
dictated clinic letters (also me)
gone internet shopping (guilty, already confessed to that in print)
edited The Spinoff's books section
produced a play
completed essays on maternal and infant nutrition & human lactation for Massey
refinanced a mortgage
launched legal action
planned a 70th birthday party
worked out whether to sleep train or not using online forums
sourced advice about medical treatment for baby
watched TV. Yes, just because you have a baby doesn't mean you have to give up Netflix.
Also, how could the marketing guys sell us apps for breastfeeding if we weren't allowed our phones?
Here's my conclusion. Firstly, wearing my scientist hat: there is no evidence that all phone use while parenting will harm your baby. Nothing in science is cut and dried, and even when the study results start being reported my hunch is that there will be some benefits and some harms, and it will be up to each individual to weigh their decision.
Secondly, as a media person it is poor form to present marketing as expert advice. Doing so might inadvertently expose your "experts" to righteous motherly rage, as happened to Dr Harry Nespolon, GP, who's quoted in the article. As poor old Michael Leunig found out recently, this is to be avoided.
Thirdly, wearing my clinician hat: clinicians and other "experts" need to stop being complicit in judging women for their choices. It doesn't change behaviour (actual research has shown). As shown by my most excellent colleague Dr Maneesh Deva, support and understanding is best. It's particularly problematic when this judgement comes from other women, because this is really about who controls women's bodies.
Finally, as a mother, who breastfed continuously for five years (two babies): I simply wouldn't have been able to do other things, and hence be the person I am, if people looked at me and only saw me as a mother. I am a parent and so much more. So is every parent.

You are here: Home / Recipes / Cake Recipes / Gluten Free Strawberry Cake!
Susan is here with another great recipe: Gluten Free Strawberry Cake.
My husband and I used to live in a small rural community as farmers in West Texas when we were first married. Our social circle was centered around our church family and quite often, we would have old fashioned potluck suppers. I have never seen such awesome food. No one would ever consider buying a dessert or skimping on butter and if they brought fried chicken, it was homemade. Granted, it wasn't healthy but back then, that wasn't the point.
There was such a spirit of family communion and sharing of lives and love of God. These gatherings were the highlight of our lives. Anytime someone would bring something different to the table that was delicious, I would get the recipe and I still have most of those in my recipe file. I rarely make them because they are not recipes that are heart healthy but every so often, I pull one out.
The other day, my daughter made a cake that she had adapted to be gluten-free for a family get-together. The minute I bit into it, I knew that it was one that we used to have at church fellowships when we were farmers. She gave me the recipe and I thought I would share it.
If you need this to be gluten-free, just use a Betty Crocker's Gluten Free White Cake Mix.
10 oz frozen strawberries, thawed and drained.
Reserve 1/3 of the strawberries for the icing. Dissolve the Jello in the hot water. Drain, smash and cut up the strawberries. Add the egg yolks and the rest of the ingredients to the Jello and beat for 2 minutes. In another bowl, beat the egg whites until fluffy. Fold into the cake mixture….gently.
Grease 3–9" cake pans. Cook at 350 for 20-25 minutes. Cool and then ice.
As you can see, I put sprinkles on top. I forgot to take a photo until we cut into it but it was really festive looking. The kids loved it.

SADA promotes tourism potential
13th Sep 2017 | Source: Graphic Online
Dr Ziblim Iddi (middle) Deputy Minister, Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, with Mr Charles A. Abugre (right) CEO, SADA, at the launch of the Northern Ghana Tourism Investment and Promotion Summit in Accra
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (SADA), Mr Charles A. Abugre, has appealed to investors to take advantage of the enormous opportunities in tourism in the savannah zone to help increase their earnings and grow local economies.
He is optimistic that increased investments in high-end and budget hotels, restaurants, shopping malls and other hospitality facilities in the savannah zone will help attract more visitors into the savannah zone, known for its serenity in nature and being home to dozens of historical and breathtaking sites.
With a sizeable number of domestic and international tourists beginning to take keen interest in the area's sites, Mr Abugre said in Accra that investors could be assured of handsome returns on every penny of investment made in the area.
He was speaking at the launch of this year's United Nations (UN) World Tourism Day, which will be observed on September 27 in Tamale in the Northern Region.
"Tourism potentials in the zone are immense. Attractions are attractions; you first must know that they exist and then through investments such as Zaina Lodge (at Mole the Northern Region) or Akayet Hotel (at Zaare in Upper East), these attractions will then become actual revenue-generating means and so on," he said.
An initiative of the UN's World Tourism Organisation, the World Tourism Day (WTD) is marked every year on September 27 to help throw more light on how countries can use tourism to develop their economies.
Just like last year, the WTD in Ghana will be observed by the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts in collaboration with SADA, the specialised institution tasked with the transformation of the northern half of the country.
Given its multiplier effects on growth and transformation, Mr Abugre said the authority had made tourism one of the catalysts for its transformation agenda and was now working to make that a reality.
He bemoaned the limited interest in the various tourist sites in the area but expressed the hope that initiatives such as the marking of the tourism day in the zone would help market the potentials to investors and tourists.
"There are so many places out there about the savannah zone that are less known but if known, will not only be places for recreation but will also be places for investments," he said at the launch.
He charged Ghanaians to take interest in the various tourism sites to help promote domestic tourism and grow the economies of the host communities.
Following the hosting of the international trade fair in Tamale and last year's tourism day at Kintampo in the Brong Ahafo Region, the SADA CEO said investor interest in the zone had increased and expressed the hope that such interests would translate into investments soon.
"Above all, it will be an opportunity to see the rich culture of the people, music that is unadulterated, histories that are unknown and food that is yet to be commercialised, among other things," he said.
The savannah zone, which covers the three northern regions and parts of the Brong Ahafo and Volta regions, currently accounts for five per cent of annual tourist numbers.
Foreign direct investments (FDIs) in the area are also low, accounting for a little over one per cent of national FDI inflows.
Line-up activities
Activities lined up for this year's tourism day which starts from September 21 include a float through the principal streets of Tamale; inter-school quiz competition on tourism under the auspices of the Ghana Tourism Authority; Muslim prayers; health walk and free medical screening; Christian prayers; launch of Tourism Investment and Promotion Summit.
There will also be welcome and awards dinner, cultural displays; unveiling of Tourism Ambassadors including Abede Pele, Sherifa Gunu, Yvonne Nelson, Stephen Appiah, Fancy Gadam, Okyeame Kwame and Sarkodie; and a grand durbar of chiefs and people to mark World Tourism Day on the theme: Sustainable Tourism, a tool for economic development. It is to be held at the Tamale Jubilee Park.

Mr. Axel Neubert - Representative of Hanns Seidel Foundation in Vietnam delivered the welcome speech at the conference
The conference this year was divided into two sessions: Session 1 "creative reform in public services" and session 2 "innovative reforms in public spending and the national target programs". Besides presentations, the conference also received discussions and comments from experts, senior policy advisers as well as policy makers in the field of public services and spending.
In the first session, researchers and policy makers put stress on the need to redefine the role and functions of the state in provision of public services, as the services are characterized by Nonexcludability and nonrivalrous consumption. The issues were raised in the discussions of Dr. Dang Duc Dam - Former Deputy Head of Prime Minister's Research Commission and Prof. Adam Fforde - Victoria Institute for Strategic Economic Studies, Victoria University, Australia.
The scholars also put special emphasis on the "withdrawal of monopoly" of the government in public services to create a market of effective public services in the context of restricted budget and transition from administrative modeled government to serviced modeled government. In such situation, the government should focus its limited resources in the four key areas: macroeconomic management, governance of public entities, funding basic and essential services and support for policies and disadvantaged people.
In the second session, the researchers focused on innovation of public spending and better serve the objectives of sustainable development which Vietnam has committed. Speakers of session 2 are Dr. Tran Thi Thanh Tu - Dean of the Faculty of Finance and Banking (UEB), Ms. Chu Thi Hanh - Deputy Head of the Office of Poverty Reduction Program (Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs), Prof. Finn Tarp - Director of UNU-WIDER.

The speakers focused on discussing the policy basis and specific solutions for sustainable poverty reduction in rural and mountainous areas, on the basis of orientations and specific targets for sustainable poverty reduction by 2020.
Besides, the research team of the State-level project coded TB MOST 03X / 13.18 under the Northwest program, including Dr.Nguyen Quoc Viet, Dr. Tran Thanh Tu, Dr. Hoang Khac Lich, proposed to analyze the framework of 5 GAPs to evaluate the appropriateness and effectiveness of enforcement of the National Target Program (NTP) in the Northwest in the period from 2001 to 2015. The study results showed significant differences between the targets and achievement of the NTP, between the evaluation of enforcement officers and beneficiaries, as well as evaluation of different levels of authorities on compliance of the program and participation of citizens.
The conference also received various comments and discussions from experts and participants. The organizers hoped that the results of the conference will contribute to the planning and implementation of socio - economic development programs of Vietnam in the next phase from 2016 to 2020.
With the motto: Research activities should lead the training activities of the University, along with maintenance of the series of conferences, the VNU University of Economics and Business in general and the Faculty of Development Economics in particular has been implementing the postgraduate programs with intense focus on theoretical research and applications in the field of public policy and management. The programs include: Master in Maritime Economics and Master of Public Policy and Development. The master programs are scientifically designed to combine theoretical research and highly practical applications, with reference to similar training programs worldwide.
