Check your mailbox: New property assessments coming early May
BOULDER – This May Day, there's one thing every property owner in Boulder County can depend on: receiving a new assessed property value.
"Because 2017 is an odd numbered year, State statute requires that every property in Boulder County be evaluated for 'assessed' value," says Cynthia Braddock, Boulder County Assessor.
Notices of assessed value will go out countywide on May 1. The new assessed value is based on past real estate market sales of comparable properties from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2016.
With 120,000 properties to assess, it's a big task for Assessor Braddock and the 45 employees of the Boulder County Assessor's Office. But since the staff is made up primarily of appraisers – including Certified Residential Appraisers and Certified General Appraisers – the group is up to the task.
"The valuation process includes the steps of discovery of properties, listing properties in the database; defining their characteristics, and categorizing properties into how they are used such as residential, commercial or land. The data is then put through a statistical modeling process called mass appraisal. The data from the sold properties is used to predict the values of the unsold properties," says Braddock.
The assessment rate, which is assigned by the state legislature, is then applied to the property value and that determines the assessed value, explains Braddock. For residential properties, assessed value is currently 7.9 percent of their actual value. For commercial properties and land, assessed value is 29 percent of the value.
Property taxes are then calculated by multiplying the assessed value by the mill levy, according to Braddock. The goal of property value assessment is to equalize property values so property taxes are distributed fairly and equitably between property owners, according to the Boulder County Assessor's website.
The property assessment process is the basis for generating property tax revenues that pay for schools, roads, fire protection, police protection, and other local services.
But Braddock wants you to know that the Assessor's Office "does not set or collect taxes."
It's not unusual for property owners to have questions about their property's assessed value. If that occurs, Braddock has issued an open invitation to come in person to visit, call or respond through the Boulder County Assessor's website.
"We hope we are accurate on the assessed value, but if you have a concern about the assessed value of your home, then come in and talk to us," she says.
"It's important for the public to know there is a formula for determining assessed value and taxes. Sometimes property owners argue so hard for a couple of thousand in value, and if you apply the whole formula, a couple of thousand in value doesn't really change your taxes that much," says RE/MAX of Boulder Realtor Duane Duggan.
Appeals must be filed by the end of the first day in June. Property owners will be notified of the ruling the last day of August when the Assessor's Office mails out their Notice of Determination. If property owners still don't agree, they can file appeal with the County Board of Equalization. Instructions are provided on next steps on with the Notice of Determination.
"One of the things the Boulder assessor is dealing with is that Boulder is a preferable place to live. And people are willing to pay a lot for properties to live here," says Braddock.
This article is based on a RE/MAX of Boulder podcast with Boulder County Assessor Cynthia Braddock. The goal of the conversation and article is to help build a bridge of communication and understanding between the Boulder County Assessor's Office, Realtors® and the general public. Watch the full podcast interview with Duane Duggan and Cynthia Braddock on the RE/MAX of Boulder YouTube channel.

Becca is from the UK and has been engrossed by water all her life. She started diving in 2010 in the U.K. and it inspired her to study Marine Environmental Studies at Bangor University. She went on to be captain of the Uni dive club and took every chance to explore underwater North Wales and beyond. During the summers she training to be a Divemaster in Malta, a Instructor in the U.K. and a Bubble Artist (But that is a completely different story!). She was attracted to Iceland by the unique geology, beautiful diving and stunning landscapes. She can't wait to share this amazing place with you!
Originally from Transylvania in Romania, have always been attracted by myths and legends and where they started from.
Have done hiking, trekking and some climbing for more than 10 years in the Carpathians, Alps and a few greek islands. This combined with photography lead to more travels and new passions to be born.
Always loved the sea and it's abundance of life, colours and also it's secrets. And that's the reason that leaded to discover diving and to start training, firstly as a Dive Master, for a full summer in 2015 in Corfu, Greece and after also decided to take things further and became SSI Instructor. Started also studying through online courses Marine Archeology with the University of Southampton from UK and Marine and Antarctic Science with the University of Tasmania. When the opportunity arised, couldn't say no to Silfra fissure and Iceland.
I was born in Athens in 1989 and have loved the sea since I was young. I studied Web Design and Development and have done several jobs and office jobs which mainly meant I was getting up every day early in the morning and was stuck between 4 walls and computers away from the sea.
In 2013, as a Rescue diver, I decided to do an internship for the first professional stage, the Divemaster and that's where the dream started. In 2014 I became an instructor, living my dream, being a mermaid !!!
After I had been working in all the warm places around the world I decided to come to Iceland and work. I find this place unique, the amazing visibility that Silfra has, which can be more than 100 metres and the fact that it is the only place in the world that you can snorkel and dive in the crack of the two continental plates makes it an amazing experience. Silfra is amazing to see, every day, every month, every year ...it is amazing to see how fast small things change!


How do I clean and maintain my kitchen equipment?
Kitchens are the undoubtedly the busiest part of a modern home. Not simply a perfunctory area for preparing and cooking food, kitchens are central gathering spaces used for socialising, entertaining, and congregating. The kitchen is the workhorse for the entire abode, and consequently tends to bear the brunt of the mess and untidiness in the home. In order to get the most out of your kitchen space, you need to ensure it is well-maintained and looked after. As well as the joinery, cupboards, flooring and surfaces, the most valuable assets in your kitchen are the appliances. As well as having your appliances regularly serviced, it is also a good idea to clean them thoroughly and frequently.
Today on homify we are going to look at some of the most common appliances, and the best way to keep them clean and in good working order. Read on for some handy hints, great cleaning tips, and interior kitchen inspiration!
Let's start with the least popular kitchen appliance to clean: the oven. Many perceive ovens as the most difficult item to keep grime-free within a kitchen, and this unfortunately means that they tend to be neglected. If you are lucky enough to have a self-cleaning oven then you will probably have a fairly clean cooker, however, if you do not own a self-cleaning oven you must be prepared for a little elbow grease. Oven cleaner is a tough blend of different cleaners that will cut through grime helping you scrub the interior of your appliance. However, this is often bad for the environment and nasty to breathe in, try a combination of vinegar, water and baking soda. Remove all the interior racks and any other pieces that will come out. Make a mixture of 1/2 cup baking soda, a little water, and spread the paste throughout the oven. Leave overnight and clean out the next day with a soft cloth. Wipe the interior clean with vinegar, and rinse.
If you have decided you would like to purchase a new oven and forego the cleaning, chat to a professional to get some appliance advice.
Exhaust fans work by sucking up moisture that is emitted during the cooking process. However, during cooking they also tend to pick up a fair amount of gunk and grime. Luckily they are fairly easy to clean. Remove the filters, submerge in soapy water, and leave to soak. Scrub with detergent and a scratch-free scourer until clean. Use some white vinegar to clean the exterior if this is covered with grease as well.
For such a large appliance a fridge is surprisingly easy to clean. Firstly, remove all of the contents and the shelves within. These can be simply washed in the sink with a scratch-free cloth/sponge and detergent. Sprinkle baking soda onto tough stains or grime and wait for a few minutes before wiping off. Secondly, and to clean the interior, you will need to wipe with a cloth and detergent.
Cooktops or stovetops can easily become the dirtiest appliance in the kitchen. Second only to the oven in terms of difficulty to clean, it requires a little patience and muscle to bring back that shine. There are plenty of different of cooktops to consider as well. If you have a glass appliance you should use an approved glass cleaner, or a simple solution of soapy water. If however, you have a stainless appliance with iron covers it can be slightly tougher to clean. Make a baking soda paste with a little water and spread onto the stains. Place a wet tea towel over the top and leave for 1 hour. Rinse with soapy water. Repeat until clean. If the stains are still persisting consider making your baking soda paste with white vinegar.
Dishwashers are wonderfully helpful kitchen appliances and require constant cleaning in order to wash dishes sufficiently. The best way to maintain your dishwasher is to firstly wipe down the interior with warm soap water, and scrub the interior racks. After this, run an empty cycle on the hottest setting. At this stage you can also use a store bought dishwasher cleaner. Alternatively, you can dill the detergent holder with white vinegar and set the wash.
Microwaves are notorious for spilling food and causing mess within their metallic chamber. Ensure you keep your microwave clean by regularly washing the interior with a soft sponge and soapy detergent. Remove the turning plate, attachment, and wash thoroughly.
Once you have cleaned the interior of the microwave you can get rid of any odours. This is done by filling a mug with water and lemon wedges and running the appliance on high for approximately 2 minutes. Once complete, leave for 5 more minutes to let the lemon steam soak up any smells.
You'll need: a lemon, water, a soft sponge and detergent.
Kettles are one of the most commonly used household appliances, so it is essential you keep them clean and operational. Make an equal part solution of water and white vinegar and soak in the kettle for about one hour. Once soaked, boil the kettle, empty, rinse thorough and voilà! Your kettle will have purged any dirt, calcification, or grime. You can also try this with lemon juice if you don't have white vinegar.
These days kitchens are full of smaller appliances ranging from apple peelers to coffee makers. Each appliance will require a different cleaning method so it is important to read the manufacturers guide to the particular appliance. One of the most basic cleaning methods will involve simple detergent and water, and if used regularly on the parts and fittings will ensure your machine remains shiny and clean.
You'll need: soap, water, and instructions for your specific appliance.

A tribute to a very loved cat called Mini, who passed away the other day.
Thanks for letting us care for you while your human parents went on holiday.
we did have a few funny and playful moments with you in the garden.
Have a jolly good play wherever you are, free of pain.
There will be people who will always remember you.
As she was never "Just a Cat".
Previous postDid Santa Claus live in Turkey?
Terribly sorry to hear about the loss in your family. We–my wife and I–lost our beloved cat, Chloe, in March this year, the week of my birthday. She was just shy of her 18th year. Not a day has gone by that we don't miss her personality, the space she occupied, and the calmness she brought to our household.
Mini was a cat we cared for while housesitting. She was a regal old lady and we admired her endurance and she had such a lovely personality. It was her time to go.
She looks gorgeous – and I so agree, never "just a cat".
Thanks Anabel for your comment.
Oh Mini! I remember your post on her. She was such a beauty.
She was Hayley, she had such a caring home environment to live in and explore.
What a lovely cat and a touching tribute to her.
That's lovely Suz…I love the wee cats and had a few pass out of my life…never forget them.

Something I'm working at a very slow pace as it's really not a priority right now. I do plan to have it done by 2014 though. I've kept the same colour pattern as the previous set I painted. W40K is really not my favourite stuff but these models are really good, can't argue with the quality. About another 8-9 models t go^^Next update in 6 months!
Un projet qui prend son temps, vraiment trop de temps à vrai dire. C'est le problème de repeindre un set qu'on a déjà fait, la motivation est pas la à 100 % même si j'adore les figurines. Bon, j'espère tout de même finir tout ça avant 2014. J'adore la science fiction mais l'univers 40K ce n'est pas ma tasse de thé. Encore 8-9 figurines à faire je crois, prochain post dans 6 mois !
This is a superb kit from Forge World with both versions of the Theodore, mounted and on feet. It also comes with a choice of heads which is quite nice. It's not the most difficult of kits to put together but still tricky enough. It was a real pleasure to paint as I've not done any Empire stuff in bloody ages!!!
Anyway, hope you like it, here's the link from the manufacturer: Theodore on Reaper.
Un superbe kit de chez Forge World qui vient avec les 2 versions de Theodore, à pied et monté. Il y a aussi un choix pour les têtes, ce qui est sympa. Ce n'est pas un kit super difficile à monter mais quelques sections parties délicates tout de même. Un vrai plaisir à peindre surtout que je n'avais pas fait de pièces de l'Empire depuis des lustres !
Bref, j'espère qu'elle vous plaira, voici le lien sur Forge World : Theodore on Reaper.
I'm currently working on an unusual conversion. The idea was to transform the Triceratops model from Dark Sword into an Ork beast of war. The customer sent me a very nice model from DragonRune Miniatures to use as rider and a goblin shaman (no idea where from) as part of the team. I also had quite a few bits left from some previous ogre work which seriously helped.
The initial model is ridden by an Amazon with a bit of a jungle theme which I changed by adding armour bits, weapons, random pieces of meat…The trickiest part of the conversion were to change the left arm of the Ork and "elongating" the neck of the Triceratops to be able to fit the new chair. I'm not going to explain everything I had to do but the pictures will show better.
I'm quite advanced on the painting, so that should be up soon.
Je suis en train de travailler sur une conversion orque. L'idée est de transformer le Triceratops de chez Dark Sword en machine de guerre orque. Le client m'a aussi envoyé un orque de chez DragonRune pour monter la bête ainsi qu'un shaman Goblin. J'ai aussi rajouté pas mal de pièces provenant de kits ogres.
Le modèle initial est monté par une Amazone donc il fallait changer le thème un peu en rajoutant des pièces d'armures, armes, morceaux de viande…Les parties les plus délicates furent de changer le bras gauche de l'orque et allonger le coup du Triceratops afin d'accommoder le nouveau siège. Je ne vais pas tout expliquer mais les photos en diront plus long.
Je suis pas mal avancé sur la peinture donc les photos devraient suivre dans pas longtemps.
I was planning to write this update from my computer once the internet was finally connected but as it happens the boat that was carrying the wires to do that has been attacked by Somalis pirates and I'm therefore waiting to hear more about It from BT. So, I decided to carry on with the updates with the iPad.
Here are the models from Room 25. Room 25 is a board game inspired by "The Cube", 90's popular sci-fi movie. I could put up a link to the publisher or BGG but it takes about 30mns of my time to do that on this machine so I'll let you do it if you're interested. The models are pretty basic, terribly cast but for the price you can't really complain (in the £20 region for the whole game). I think it's a good selection of characters. I did a super quick job which involved fixing the legs of 3 of them which were completely snapped in 2.
Anyway, looking forward to play this one.
Toujours pas d'internet donc je fais ca texto mode rapide. Une sculpture de chez Forgeworld, superbement detaillee et tres agreable a peindre, la creature en particulier.

Revealed - No-deal Brexit 'highly likely' to disrupt food, medicine and fuel in Suffolk
Food prices could be affected in Suffolk if Britain leaves the EU without a deal, a new document has revealed Picture: Neil Didsbury
Food prices, the adult care system and public order could all be disrupted in Suffolk under a no-deal Brexit, it has been revealed.
The Government published its Yellowhammer documents earlier this month. Prime Minister Boris Johnson Picture: Kirsty O'Connor/PA Wire
The county's no-deal Brexit plans have finally been published, with just over a month to go until Britain leaves the EU.
Papers published late on Friday afternoon by the 'Suffolk Resilience Forum' (SRF) - made up of a number of agencies including the police, ambulance service, district councils and county council - reveal there is a risk of public demonstrations and disorder, and a no-deal could also impact food, medicine, and fuel.
Travel, freight transfers and border control are also highly likely to be impacted, and there may be increased risks to information and data sharing.
It comes after the Government published its Yellowhammer document, outlining a series of "reasonable worst-case planning assumptions".

Soon after it was published, SRF chiefs said they were not yet ready to publish their no-deal Brexit plan.

However, nearly a week later, the forum has now published its plan - here's what it could mean for you:
Demonstrations and disorder
Although there is currently no police intelligence relating to disorder planned in Suffolk, the forum believes it is highly likely demonstrations and disorder will occur in the future. However, it says the relative impact on Suffolk is 'minor'.
Disruption to services
According to the SRF's 'risk chart', disruption to services - particularly food, medicine and fuel - is high, but the impact is expected to be minor.

Fuel disruption due to traffic congestion should only be for limited periods, the Suffolk planners write in their report.
It may also be "exacerbated" by public behaviour.
The SRF has a fuel plan in place for such events, though this is yet to be made publicly available.
A reduction in food choice is likely.
However, no shortages are predicted at the moment.
Food prices could go up Picture: NEIL DIDSBURY
An increase in prices may have an impact on low income groups, Suffolk planners wrote.
In terms of their response to this particular issue, the forum said there is a national benefits system in place for people on low income - and no further action is required from the group.
NHS England are leading the response on this nationally, SRF chiefs said. They are taking no further action on this at the moment.
Medicines are also likely to be disrupted in Suffolk Picture: ALEXRATHS/GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO
Adult social care provision
There is a plan in place, also put together by the forum, for the potential failure of the adult care service.
Travel, freight and borders
Meetings with the Port of Felixstowe have confirmed no risks needing additional planning for port congestion. The forum has drawn up a 'stack' plan in the event of a closure of the port to large goods vehicles.
Felixstowe Port, which deals with freight from outside EU, is said to be relatively unaffected by Brexit Picture: Ed Taylor, r_e_d_r_o_c_k_e_t
This summarises the agreed arrangements for this scenario, and aims to:
- Prepare key parts of the community likely to be affected by the closure through the provision of advice and information
- Provide accurate and timely information to public and local business on closure events
- Manage the wider impact of highways response activity to reduce disruption
Information and data sharing
Suffolk planners have been reassured by national agencies that communications companies are doing everything possible to keep data paths open.
Information sharing and security could also take a hit Picture: HAKINMHAN/GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO
At the moment, no action is required but guidance has been passed to individual responders - particularly emergency services - about understanding potential risks.
These services are being urged to take appropriate action to mitigate these risks.
MORE: How a no-deal Brexit could affect you
'No clear strategy'
This morning, Labour's Jack Abbott criticised the report as "flimsy".
He said: "Our country is potentially a matter of weeks away from a damaging no-deal Brexit, but this contingency plan looks like it was cobbled together over a few hours.
Jack Abbott, Labour's education spokesman at Suffolk County Council, criticised the no-deal Brexit planning document Picture: SARAH LUCY BROWN
"It outlines a number of risks to Suffolk, but there is little analysis and no clear strategy about what the response would be should all these scenarios come to pass at once.
He added: "It casually talks of failure in the adult care service without exploring the subject in any detail, instead citing a 'business continuity plan'.
"This is a flimsy local plan struggling to come to terms with a Conservative-inflicted national disaster - it will be our residents who have to pay the price, once again."
'Aiming for minimal disruption'
Simon Megicks, chair of the SRF and assistant chief constable, said there is a great deal of activity going on behind the scenes to ensure Suffolk is as well-placed as it can be for a no-deal Brexit.
"Suffolk Resilience Forum is planning for Brexit as it does for other risks in the county," he said.
"Emergency planning and business continuity is business-as-usual for the SRF. We are told that leaving the EU with a deal remains the Government's top priority. However, a responsible resilience forum must plan for every eventuality, including a 'no deal' scenario. We are aiming for minimal disruption to our front-line services.
"We are preparing for the operational impact of a no deal Brexit. We have no intelligence to suggest a rise in crime or disorder, but we are considering worst case scenarios provided by the Government to inform our planning.
He added: "There shouldn't be any need for members of the public to act differently or change their consumer habits."

'Never mind the potholes, what about the pavements?' - Concerns raised over 'dangerous' walkways


In 2013, with funding fromUSAID, IRH conducted an initial review of recent literature and programs on male engagement in sexual and reproductive health. The review showed that the practice of engaging men in sexual and reproductive health programs is not yet clearly defined, and evidence of its effectiveness is still accumulating.
This brief is based on: a) the preliminary review of recent initiatives to engage men in sexual and reproductive health programs; b) the subsequent technical consultation to define male engagement practices, discuss evaluation of male engagement programs, and consider feasibility of scaling-up successful approaches; and, c) the case study of four interventions which used gender-transformative approaches to engage men in family planning programs.

This highly compact motion light is wireless, fully automatic and completely solar powered. The Slate's minimalist design and clean white finish lends itself perfectly to contemporary settings. The Slate can be installed quickly and easily by using its slot on bracket which creates a clean floating shelf styled installation.
Easy to fit and works really well, even though the wall is NE facing it still is able get enough sunlight to work well when needed.
I needed a light above the front door of a 100% north facing porch. A difficult job to get mains power connection. So turned to solar and this light is perfect. Easy to fit, works great and the light can be removed in an instant taken to back of the south facing house and charged in a short time and replaced. Very portable and has solved our problem and I would add is unobtrusive but smart.
I bought two of these lights for my son. They were very easy to fit and worked almost immediately, giving a very bright light, better than my mains powered light! My son likes them so much he wants another for the rear of his property. I am very pleased.
Really pleased, easy to fit, light and bright.
I gave it a couple of days to charge and it works perfectly. Would definitely get another one. Wasn't even in full sun either. More than happy with the light it gives off. No more struggling to see to get into my house when it's dark.
The Slate Solar Motion light is a modern design making it very unobtrusive, especially being coloured white. The fixing bracket was very easy to fit with just two screws and the light fitting just slotted onto the bracket. I left the light switched off for just two days and then activated it, and the Slate then gave out a brilliant light. The only slight drawback is that the motion sensor does not activate the light until you are within 3 to 4 metres, a bit less than I was hoping for. Otherwise with a special offer of £5 off this is very good value for money.
Installation above my back door took a few minutes only, only 2 screws were needed and the design of the mounting bracket made it very easy. The light just slots over part of the bracket and that's it. The instructions say, "leave turned off for 2 to 5 days before using to make sure the battery is fully charged" I left it for 2 days and when I turned the light on it was dazzling! Excellent light, unobtrusive design and easy to install, then afterwards, maintenance free! What more could one ask? I thought it a little pricey, but there's a fiver off so it's not too bad for a good product. I hope it lasts!
Once installed this powerful motion light emits a 450lumen light for approximately 10 seconds each time motion is detected within a 5m range. Designed for use year round in the UK the Slate comes with an optional Powersaving mode which reduces the brightness but doubles the amount of available activations each night.
Will this work on a North facing wall?
We do not recommend putting this light on a north facing wall. It will work but may not last very long in the winter months. If you think the area the light is in has low traffic (low number of triggers) per night then it could be an option.
does the slate switch off during daylight hours?
The Slate only illuminates after dusk and once motion is detected. It won't operate during daylight hours.
Does this give off more light than the eco wedge elite as the light seems much brighter in the outdoor photograph used for both lights.
The Slate is 450 lumens and the Eco wedge Elite is 1,000 lumens so more than double the brightness.

Own Apple, don't sell it — Stock could have more upside
Apple rallied nearly 5% on Wednesday, but CNBC's Jim Cramer said there could soon be even more upside.
"That's why I always say own it, don't trade it," the "Mad Money" host said. "With this quarter, we got yet another reason to stick with Apple, and even after today's terrific run, I think it will turn out to be a real bargain because of its embrace of the subscription economy."
Apple reported that iPhone sales, historically its largest source of revenue, plunged 17% year over year. It said that trend could continue, but that didn't stop the stock's Wednesday rally. Shares of the iPhone maker gained $9.85 during the session, closing above $210.
Cramer said the company is going through a "paradigm shift" from being a device manufacturer to a big-league service provider.
In its second-quarter report, Apple revealed an installed base of 1.4 billion devices. It yielded 390 million paid subscribers, which could reach 500 million in the near future and translate into $11.5 billion in high-margin sales, he highlighted.
"The stock caught fire today because it's become impossible to deny the power of that metamorphosis," Cramer said. "When I say this is a paradigm shift, what I mean is that, within two years, this subscriber base will profoundly define the way we judge the stock of Apple. We're already well on our way to a world where the key metric is subs, not iPhone sales."
Initially, most analysts that cover Apple were unsure about the tech giant rebranding itself as a service company, he recalled. The analysts were so focused on the iPhone that they did not care about Apple's other fast-growing wearable products, he continued.
Over the years, its services revenue kept growing and leadership decided to embrace the segment. In January, Apple preannounced some bad news to get ahead of the curve and revealed that they would stop disclosing the amount of units it sells each quarter, which many saw as a terrible move, Cramer said.
"In the future, it's gonna be seen as a subscription company with a terrific razor/razorblade business model: the phones are the razor, the services are the blade where they really make their money," he said. "Before Apple started breaking out its service revenues, the stock tended to sell for about 11-times earnings. Now it sells for 16-times earnings because it's got a better mix of businesses, both hardware and services."
The paradigm shift is still unfolding, and investors are still trying to wrap their minds around it, Carmer said.

The major U.S. indices all declined during the session as investors start to worry if the stock market has been too strong for its own good, Cramer said.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed about 163 points, while the S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite fell 0.75% and 0.57%, respectively.
"We've had a terrific run, so I am blessing you to do some selling tomorrow," the host said. "But other than that, I think we're in fine shape. Somewhat overheated, most definitely, but I still think it makes sense to stay the course."
The Dow Jones had the best four-month rally to start the year it's seen since 1987. The Nasdaq had its best showing in the same period since its big rally in 1999. No one wants 2019 to look like those two years, Cramer said.

Beyond Meat, the food company behind the meatless Beyond Burger, is set to debut on the public market this week. Carmer said the stock is worth buying — at or below $35 per share.
The plant-based meat maker priced its shares at $25, up from the its original $19 to $21 offering. The stock could surge to $30 once it starts trading, and investors should be cautious if it climbs above $35, he said.
"I think this is exactly the kind of growth story that the stock market tends to adore — in a year that's already been chock-full of IPOs, Beyond Meat is the fastest grower among them," Cramer said. "I doubt it will be another Lyft, where the revenue growth was already decelerating by the time the company came public. "
The company reported a net loss of $29.9 million on revenue of $87.9 million for 2018.

When Chegg CEO Dan Rosensweig first appeared on "Mad Money" in early 2016, the stock was trading at its all-time lows under $4.
Fast forward three years later: the stock has matriculated to Wednesday's $34.74 close.
"The transformation started on this show," Rosensweig told Cramer.
Now the textbook and education platform is fueling the public's everlasting needs to keep learning, according to the chief. More people need to learn, they will need to learn more things more often, and they will have to keep learning for their future and careers, he said.
"We believe in believing in the inevitable," Rosensweig said. "And the answer is we believe in all of that."

Cramer's lighting round: The quarter won't be good, but buy this stock
In Cramer's lightning round, the "Mad Money" host zips through his thoughts about callers' favorite stock picks of the day.
Kohl's Corp.: "Kohl's is run by the fabulous [CEO] Michelle Goss, who is doing a great job. Heavily shorted stock, that makes no sense. I know the quarter's not gonna be that great, but I say [buy]."
Exxon Mobil: "You're not going to get hurt with a 4% yield buying Exxon at these prices, but it's no longer my favorite. By the way, I think [CEO] Mike Wirth's doing a dynamite job at Chevron, although my friend [CNBC's] David Faber made me feel like: 'wow, maybe they're going to come and bid for Anadarko after [Occidental], but I do prefer Chevron to Exxon. "
Delta Air Lines Inc.: "It's a very cheap stock at 8-times earnings. I'm not gonna tell you to ring the register. I'm gonna tell you that it's cheap."
Disclosure: Cramer's charitable trust owns shares of Apple, Kohl's, and Anadarko.

If you've just been diagnosed with terminal cancer, it's normal to feel confused and overwhelmed that you overlook the need to decide issues related to your imminent end-of-life. However, educating yourself about the hospice care options available to you might help in better managing your specific circumstances.
Opting for hospice care is a very personal decision. In general, however, when the adverse effects of cancer therapy such as chemotherapy and radiation far outweigh the potential benefits, patients decide to stop getting treatment and opt for alternatives such as hospice home care services in Indiana.
Hospice care is typically described as a treatment approach that targets the treatment of the patient instead of the patient's disease. Its primary objective is to ensure that patients are as pain-free and comfortable as possible for the remainder of their lives.
You'll work with a hospice team, including doctors, caregivers, nurses, social workers, chaplains, etc., to satisfy your emotional, physical, as well as spiritual wishes and requirements. They could help in easing your pain and offer medication and medical equipment, guidance, and emotional support for as long as you want them.
In or Out of Your Home?
You have three options for where to get hospice care: at home, in a hospice facility, or a hospital with a hospice facility. If you want to stay in your home, in-home care might be best for you. But if living at home isn't possible or if you require medical personnel constantly, it would be best to get hospice care in a dedicated facility.
It's immensely vital that you inform your family, close friends, and healthcare team of your end-of-life decisions such as choosing hospice care. Explain to them why and how you've come to your decisions so that they could help ensure that your wishes and needs would be met. While you could certainly change your mind about some of your end-of-life decisions, it's a great idea to make decisions as early as possible to avoid potential conflicts later on.

Temple looking to earn bowl bid
Owls went 2-10 in first season under Rhule
Temple looking to earn bowl bid Owls went 2-10 in first season under Rhule Check out this story on thedailyjournal.com: http://vineland.dj/VtcEc8
Aaron Bracy, Associated Press Published 8:15 p.m. ET Aug. 15, 2014
Temple quarterback P.J. Walker will look to build on a strong freshman campaign for the Owls again this year. (Photo: USA TODAY Sports )
PHILADELPHIA – Second-year Temple coach Matt Rhule has clear expectations for this season.
"We're expecting ourselves to be bowl eligible," Rhule said. "We don't put any limit on what we can do and don't put any excuses on what we can't do. We're just going to go compete."
Rhule endured a 2-10 mark in his first season and the Owls' initial one in the newly formed American Athletic Conference. But the coach is optimistic after the Owls finished well, winning 41-21 at Memphis in the season's finale after losing the three previous games by a combined 13 points.
The Owls, who were picked to finish eighth in the 11-team AAC, open their season Aug. 28 at Vanderbilt.
"Now we know who we are, what we're doing and the players are comfortable in the system," Rhule said. "Last year there were times you feel like you're the only person who knows what you want. You're trying to get all of these people on the same page. In year two, all of the people are on the same page. It goes from being an introductory phase to being something where we all work together."
If they are to reach their fifth bowl in school history, the Owls will need to continue the pace they began under the offensive-minded Rhule after averaging 24.9 points and accumulating 4,788 total yards in 2013. But Temple needs to improve the other side of the ball after ranking last in the conference in total defense last season while allowing opponents to score 29.8 points per contest.
Five things to know about Temple:
Tackling machine
With 99 solo tackles, linebacker Tyler Matakevich led the nation in 2013. He has 237 tackles in the last two seasons.
Rhule had high praise for the 6-foot-1, 230-pound junior.
"He's a leader, he's tough, he's physical, he represents what we want to represent," Rhule said. "Players around him respond to him. He has the physical tools, the mental tools and the intangibles - the instincts, the feel for the game - that are hard to find. I don't think there's any secret why he led the nation in tackles last year and right now he's much better than he was last year."
Under center
Sophomore P.J. Walker will run the Temple offense after shining as a true freshman last season when he passed for 2,084 yards and 20 touchdowns in seven starts. Walker also ran for 488 yards and 3 TDs.
"They know they have a guy who can win, a guy who is dynamic," Rhule said. "He's someone they believe in because he's a good person, a winner and great teammate. He's only going to get better and better and better."
Rhule would like to see the 6-1, 200-pound Walker improve his decision making and cut down on mistakes after throwing eight picks last season.
Snapping the ball to Walker will be arguably one of the Owls' best players in junior center Kyle Friend.
Temple will need Friend to be good, too, because he's the only offensive lineman returning in a unit that will be implementing four new starters.
"He's big, strong, fast and extremely intelligent," Rhule said. "He keeps everyone on the same page."
Kicking game
Temple made just three field goals last season, on nine attempts, and doesn't have a player returning that made one.
Sophomore Jim Cooper went 0-for-3 last season but has shown promise in the preseason in a three-man battle with freshman Austin Jones and junior Tyler Mayes. Rhule said the competition for the starting position will continue until the season opener.
"There's probably not an area more vital," he said. "We have to be able to score points in the red zone and feel really certain about what we're doing."
Improving the D
Rhule is banking on junior college transfers Alex Wells and Khiry Lucas to help solidify the Owls' secondary that gave up 3,583 yards through the air last season.
The coach also has emphasized getting pressure on the quarterback and feels Matt Ioannidis, who led the team with three sacks last year, along with Sharif Finch and Praise Martin-Oguike, will have the greatest impact on improving the defensive line.


LONDON — Philips Semiconductors has introduced two Nexperia semiconductor platforms for televisions with liquid crystal displays.
The TV810 reference design an integrated analog/digital hybrid system suitable for global analog and digital broadcast TV sets with matrix displays including LCD, plasma, moving-mirror and liquid-crystal on silicon (LCOS) displays, Philips said.

Kinsey meets her new hero, Lauren Brewer Bass.
y just has an affinity for characters.
Last week my husband and I brought both of our daughters to Cooperative Baptist Fellowship's General Assembly in Dallas. We began our week at Baptist Women in Ministry's annual worship service. Squirming Kinsey sat on my lap as the service began. After a few minutes, Pam Durso introduced a young woman who would be supported by the Carolyn Weatherford Crumpler missions fund. As the young woman got up to speak, I whispered in Kinsey's ear, "Shh. Please be quiet right now. This is mom's friend Lauren Brewer Bass and I want to hear what she says." Kinsey quieted down and listened carefully…and then proceeded to continue fidgeting once Lauren was done.
Later at BWIM's luncheon Kinsey also heard Pam say that Lauren had written a book and would be signing copies after the lunch. On her way out, Kinsey quietly made a note of how neat it looked for people to stand in line and have Lauren sign their books.
When we arrived at the hotel just hours later, Kinsey spotted a banner with Lauren's picture on it and shouted, "Hey, look! It's Lauren Brewer Bass!" Then, she heard my husband and I talk about how Lauren and her husband, David, would be commissioned as field personnel during the Wednesday evening worship service.
Kinsey had found a hero—a character—for her CBF trip. For the next 48 hours I heard the name "Lauren Brewer Bass" over and over. Once Kinsey realized that Lauren was moving to Cambodia to be a missionary she was a little concerned that she wouldn't be able to see Lauren much, but she still chanted her name, "Lau-ren, Lau-ren, Lau-ren," as we waited in line to get a picture with Lauren at Smyth & Helwys' book signing on Thursday night.
I am so grateful to be a part of a Fellowship that has characters like Lauren Brewer Bass. Baptist Women in Ministry and the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship are places where a 7-year-old girl can find heroes who write books, sign books, have their pictures on banners and even go to Cambodia to share God's grace and hope.
You can buy Lauren's book, 500 Miles from Smyth & Helwys, here, or learn more about Lauren & David's work on their blog. My family will be supporting Lauren & David in their ministry and I will keep Kinsey updated on all things "Lauren" in the years ahead. You also can give to support Lauren and David as well as other CBF field personnel here so that little girls and boys around the world can find characters and heroes worth standing in line for and chanting about. Learn more about Lauren and David's ministry in Cambodia in the video below.

Founded in 1912, Custer State Park is undoubtedly a "must see and do" during your South Dakota vacation.
Custer State Park is home to a wide variety of free roaming animals such as American buffalo (bison), mule deer, whitetail deer, elk, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, pronghorn, feral burros, prairie dogs, coyotes and mountain lions. Visitors commonly use the Wildlife Loop Road to view these amazing animals from their cars.
The Custer State Park Wildlife Loop Road is 18 miles in length, and is a semi-circle route that originates at the State Game Lodge and ends at Blue Bell Lodge. This nicely maintained paved road takes visitors through prairie grasslands and Ponderosa pine-covered hills. Located along the Wildlife Loop Road are numerous well-maintained dirt "spur" roads that allow cars to gain access to more remote sections of Custer State Park to further enhance their wildlife viewing experience.
To assist visitors in finding and identifying the many species of wildlife found along the Wildlife Loop Road, the Custer State Park Wildlife Station Visitor Center is there to help. Located on the Wildlife Loop Road, this helpful visitor center even has a map showing visitors where the buffalo herd was spotted during that particular day. We recommend that visitors at least allow an hour to drive the Wildlife Loop Road at the bare minimum.... as you will want to take time to stop and enjoy watching these incredible free roaming animals.

Custer State Park is home to a world-renowned herd of 1,300 free-roaming buffalo (bison). This massive herd originated in 1914 when Custer State Park was known as the Custer State Game Sanctuary.
36 buffalo (bison) were purchased by the State to start the herd, and in less than 30 years the herd exploded to over 2,500 buffalo! This created serious over-grazing issues in Custer State Park, therefore the number of buffalo was slowly reduced each year during the popular Custer State Park Buffalo Roundup.
Typically held in September of each year, the Buffalo Roundup has become an annual event where people from all across the globe come to see the show. Visitors can watch the Custer State Park Buffalo Roundup from the corrals located on the Wildlife Loop Road and no reservations are needed. During the roundup, calf buffalo are branded with an "S" and a single digit above it. The "S" indicates that the buffalo is part of the Custer State Park herd, and the digit represents the last number of the year that the calves were born.

Custer State Park is also home to feral burros (donkeys). These wild burros have been appropriately named "Begging Burros" as these donkeys commonly approach passing cars throughout Custer State Park and "beg" for food. Due to their popularity, visitors have even been known to bring food specifically to feed these feral donkeys. There are approximately 50 feral burros found in Custer State Park, and have gained quite a reputation throughout the years for causing "burro jams", which are a result of the donkey's stopping traffic. The Custer State Park feral burros are actually descendants of a herd of burros that once upon a time carried visitors up to the summit of Harney Peak. When these rides were eliminated, these burros were released into Custer State Park.... and the rest is history!
