EPL: Super strikers wanted
Manchester United's Dutch manager Louis van Gaal arrives ahead of the English Premier League football match between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in Manchester, north west England, on August 8, 2015.
Neil Humphreys
Save the sugarcoating for the spin-doctors.
The opening weekend of the Premier League season took on the complexion of a paint-stripping contest, with less colour and fewer incidents. Once the hype gave way to reality, three out of the Big Four got poorer reviews than the Fantastic Four.
Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal either stumbled at the first hurdle or, in the case of the Gunners, clattered into the hurdle in heavy headgear.
But the fundamental flaw isn't Petr Cech. It's the shared concern of inadequate firepower.
After their 2-0 defeat by West Ham, Arsenal are Premier League candidates in the way that Donald Trump is a presidential candidate - sputtered because of the glaring absence of striking depth.
Chelsea started with Diego Costa against Swansea, but the Spaniard struggled as the thought of another tweaked hamstring hampered both his movement and his manager's selections.
Eager for all three points at Stamford Bridge on opening day, Jose Mourinho persevered with the flailing Costa, a damning indictment of Falcao, who managed a six-minute cameo and Loic Remy, who never left the bench, in the 2-2 draw.
Manchester United, at least, managed a 1-0 victory, but the stuttering attack expressed itself with the finesse of a Tourette's sufferer, guilty of doing the wrong thing at the wrong time and embarrassing those around them.
Wayne Rooney required so many touches to control and dispatch a simple pass he left it to Tottenham's Kyle Walker to supply the clumsy finish.
United prevailed in large part to Spurs' never-ending transitional period that began when Gareth Bale left the club and has yet to reach a satisfactory conclusion.
But the Gunners were the colossal disappointment, not a surprise particularly, just a crushingly predictable collapse with the usual mental weaknesses.
Olivier Giroud must grow tired of the "decent, but not a world-class striker" tag.
The description has been thrown at him like a patronising crumb of comfort for so long now the Frenchman might as well have it printed on a T-shirt.
But a couple of presentable chances were spurned against West Ham, the kind usually put away by - all together now - world-class strikers.
Ironically, there was one smart striking acquisition on show yesterday (Singapore time), but he was bought by a club that have started the season more schizophrenic than ever before.
Christian Benteke is the right striker lost in the wrong formation, or even the wrong club, if Brendan Rodgers doesn't compromise quickly.
The brutish, occasionally brilliant, Belgian would flourish at Mourinho's Chelsea, an obvious replacement for Didier Drogba.
Instead he finds himself at Liverpool, where short passes between fullbacks and inverted wingers remain the order of the day.
Against Stoke, he looked like a static bumper in a pinball machine, unable to trap the ball or influence proceedings.
But Benteke opted for Liverpool because the Big Four never came calling, reiterating the ongoing dilemma for the title chasers.
HARDWORKER
Benteke isn't quite good enough to chase for continental and domestic honours, but he is a committed, honest toiler perhaps capable of a dash for Champions League qualification.
The next, upper tier of talent is harder to come by.
Despite the avalanche of TV cash engulfing the Premier League, the pool of genuine world-class strikers continues to shrink.
By the time Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have pulled out their hooks, there's no big fish left to catch.
The English anglers are currently fighting over Barcelona bench-warmer Pedro Rodriguez or Karim Benzema - but only if Real Madrid are certain they are better off without him of course.
So the inconvenient truth promises to be more self-evident this season. The Premier League's big boys are cash rich, but asset poor in the penalty box.
They're overhyped over here. But the finest strikers are over there, elsewhere.
The squads of Chelsea, Arsenal and United resemble bloated pyramids with blunted apexes, filled with creative dynamos and scampering wide men, but starved of proven, dependable quality up front.
Put bluntly, their respective title challenges depend on a raging bull with the hamstrings of a hamster, a mercurial Frenchman and a weary warrior heading towards his 30th birthday.
The title contenders really should go shopping for strikers to reinvigorate their squads and wake up the season.
Or we'll all be hitting the snooze button.
Who can fit the bill?
Neil Humphreys picks the strikers with the best chance of joining the Premier League big boys before the transfer window closes.
1. KARIM BENZEMA (Real Madrid)
After the West Ham defeat, an irate Arsenal fan reportedly confronted Arsene Wenger and demanded that he either sign Benzema or resign immediately. The incident highlights two truisms.
First, the Gunners faithful remain notoriously fickle, considering they were supposedly going to win the title 90 minutes earlier with the best squad in a decade. And second, the supporter has a point.
Benzema would be perfect for Arsenal. The 27-year-old is not foolproof in front of goal, but far more consistent than his fellow Frenchman Olivier Giroud. It would take a club record fee for Arsenal to persuade Real Madrid to let him go, but the cash is available.
It's now a test of Wenger's nerve and principles, particularly if Manchester City are also serious about pinching Benzema.
2. Pedro Rodriguez (Barcelona)
According to Italian media reports, Pedro has secretly taken part of his medical at Manchester United after a £24.7 million deal ($53m) with Barcelona was agreed. Having sold Angel di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain, the funds are available and Pedro's services are obviously required.
Wayne Rooney is a willing runner, but lacks the acceleration. At 27, the World Cup, European Championship and Champions League winner Pedro should be hitting his prime.
Instead, he's hitting a brick wall behind Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez. Old Trafford should be his new home.
3. GONZALO HIGUAIN (NAPOLI)
He's already rejected a new contract at Napoli and popped up on both Chelsea and Arsenal's radar screens.
If Wenger fails to capture Benzema, he may see Higuain as a fall-back. Still only 27 and the quintessential No. 9, the Argentinian managed 18 goals in 37 games last season.
But he's also famously erratic and comes with a rumoured £66m release clause. Even United manager Louis van Gaal rarely takes such transfer gambles.
4. HARRY KANE (SPURS)
Sources are claiming that van Gaal has made discreet enquiries about the 22-year-old sensation, presumably after watching pigs fly past the kitchen window.
But the athletic, freakishly strong forward would be an invaluable asset up front with his England partner Rooney.
He bludgeoned his way to 31 goals in all competitions for Spurs last season and will come with a prize tag of at least £40m.
It's the longest of shots, but van Gaal has shown in the past that he's just as willing to splash the cash as Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is to receive it.
When we can buy another striker who has a lot of qualities, more than our players, then we buy. But we have always done that. - Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal on buying a striker.

The Nicolum River, formerly Nicolum Creek, is a tributary of the Coquihalla River, rising in the Cascade Mountains and flowing northwest to join that stream near the town of Hope, British Columbia, Canada.  Nicolum River Provincial Park is located at the confluence of the two rivers.

In 1942, the official name of the stream was changed to Nicolum Creek on the recommendation of the Dominion Topographic Survey to reflect its relative size.  The official name was changed back to Nicolum River in 1991 based on local nomenclature.  The name appears as "Nkalaoum River" on John Arrowsmith's 1862 map and as "Nicolume River" on Joseph Trutch's 1871 map.

In 1965, Outram Lake, a small lake in the river, was buried by the Hope Slide, and the river's course altered.

Why is Pre-Ranging Your Turkey Hunting Setup so Important?
Turkey hunting success often comes down to whether or not you can get a turkey into range. Whether using a shotgun or a bow, knowing the exact range at which you can effectively shoot a bird is vital. While you might be limited to no more than 40 yards, it's important that you know where that is in the heat of the moment in the field. Pre-ranging your turkey hunting setup is easy enough but it needs to be ranged with confidence that only comes with the other tips mentioned below!
Almost everybody has heard the phrase "know your effective range". This phrase applies to every weapon you use regardless of the quarry and is no different for turkey hunting. Finding out what your effective range is for turkey hunting is as simple as patterning your shotgun. Your goal should be to place at least 10 pellets in the head and neck region of a gobbler. When patterning, a better goal to shoot for is around 100 pellets in a 10-inch circle.
Mounting a scope on your shotgun will also help you with adjusting your pattern. Having moving reticles allows you to adjust your scope if your pattern is off in any direction. Similar to deer hunting, just move your reticle to the densest portion of your pattern, shoot, and repeat until you're confident with where your pattern is hitting on the target. This will help maximize the number of bb's you're able to place in the head and neck region of a turkey. Turkey hunting scopes are becoming more popular with most companies having some type of product for easy target acquisition and easy aiming for patterned shotguns. Regardless of whether you use a scope or not, patterning your shotgun will give you confidence knowing your effective range before entering the turkey woods which will also increase your efficiency and success.
After you know what your effective range is you can immediately improve your turkey hunting setup and it's as simple as using this information to help you decide how far away from your blind you should set your decoys. It might be tempting to set your decoys out at your maximum effective range, but you should resist that temptation. Instead, set your decoys up even closer than what you've established as your maximum effective range. This will help you to still be able to make a lethal shot even if a gobbler hangs up beyond your decoys. So, for example, if your effective range is 30-yards, try setting your decoy up at 20-yards. That way if a gobbler hangs up at 30-yards, you'll still be able to take an ethical shot and if that gobbler comes strutting into your decoys at 20-yards, then you should have a chip shot.
Remember that sometimes it doesn't take much for a tom to hang-up just beyond your decoys so be sure to set yourself up for success. This is when having a rangefinder becomes useful. Having a rangefinder is an easy way to decide whether you should take the shot on a tom or whether he's just out of range. Be sure to also range natural markers such as easily identifiable trees, shrubs, rocks, patches of grass, etc. to help you quickly determine how far the gobbler is once he becomes visible. Having these natural markers ranged before you have a gobbler in sight will also help you reduce the amount of movement needed to range the gobbler itself. Sometimes, even the best hunting plans can get flipped upside down so be sure to do everything you can to increase your chances of success.
Knowing terrain features of the property you're hunting can greatly improve your turkey hunt. A little bit of scouting can go a long way, particularly if you're hunting out of a field in a ground blind. First of all, establishing where toms tend to strut in the field before setting up will obviously help determine your blind placement and can be easily accomplished using a trail camera or by doing some scouting from a nearby road. But things may become a little more complicated if you decide to get out of your blind to pursue a bird on foot. Most people have experienced a situation where a tom was gobbling and seemingly coming into their calls, only to have the bird go silent and never show up. Knowing where property lines are and whether there are any creeks that run through the property can increase your chances of success. When chasing a tom, make sure to set up in a way so that property lines and creeks aren't in between you and the tom. That way, there is no chance for those features to be the cause if a tom hangs up. Also, identify potential strutting areas where there is short vegetation that allows for a gobbler to be seen while strutting. Setting up in strutting areas will also increase your chances of intercepting the tom and closing the deal.
It's your responsibility as a hunter to make a clean and ethical kill and knowing your effective range will help you to do that. Taking shots that are outside of your effective range, or are taken with brush or tall grass in between the turkey and the hunter will often times lead to a miss or even worse, an injured bird. It can be easy to fall into the mindset that you're sending several bb's down range and all it takes is one to kill the bird, but don't fall into that kind of thinking. Letting a tom walk away uninjured is far better than taking a questionable shot and injuring a bird.
There are many rangefinders to choose from that can work great for turkey hunting. Here are some good options but feel free to look around for several discount rangefinders and deals!
Following these steps by patterning your shotgun and being confident with your effective range along with carrying a rangefinder while hunting will help to decrease the chances of wounding a bird and increase your chances of success.

PRESS RELEASE. DATGANIAD I'R WASG.
Local politicians have warned that Carmarthenshire County Council's announcement that between 400 – 500 jobs could be lost due to spending cutbacks will have a devastating impact on the county's workforce. Rhodri Glyn Thomas AM and Jonathan Edwards MP have issued their concern and will now be writing to the council to arrange a meeting to discuss the potential impact and how support can be given to those facing unemployment.
"There is already a high level of unemployment in the county and so clearly talk of slashing anything up to 500 jobs will be a hammer blow. Unfortunately Labour's mismanagement of the economy, coupled with the Tory-Lib Dems savage cuts means job losses are inevitable. We will of course do everything that we can to support those who do face the prospect of being made unemployed and will be asking for a meeting with the council to try and keep those job losses at a minimum.

loped bushland site in Shortland. As enrolments grew, the University embarked on a major building program and redeveloped the Shortland site into the Callaghan campus, named for Sir Bede Callaghan, foundation member of the University council and chancellor from 1977 para 1988.
Students at the university celebrate Autonomy Day on 1 July of each year. According to unverified sources, official autonomy was marked on 1 xaneiro 1965 with a "symbolic ceremonial bonfire held at the site of the Great Hall". This celebration is said to have been officiated by Professor Godfrey Tanner who is said to have poured wine libations onto the ground as to "sanctify the land upon which the University rests". Since the university technically became autonomous on 1 xaneiro 1965 autonomy day should be held on 1 xaneiro. 1 July actually coincided with the New South Wales University of Technology's autonomy from the Public Service Board's authority on 1 xullo 1954. According to Don Wright, students interpreted Autonomy Day as celebrating the autonomy of the University of Newcastle from the University of New South Wales. The students were entitled to give the celebration whatever meaning they chose. The fact that they called it 'autonomy day' heightened the students' sense of the importance of autonomy and their need to defend it against outside interference.
en 1989, the Dawkins reforms amalgamated the Hunter Institute of Higher Education with the University of Newcastle. Newcastle Teachers College had been established in 1949 and was later renamed the Newcastle College of Advanced Education and finally the Hunter Institute of Higher Education as it had expanded its educational offerings beyond teacher education to nursing, other allied health professions, negocio, and fine arts. The Hunter Institute was located in a series of buildings on land immediately adjacent to the University at Callaghan and amalgamation expanded the campus to some 140 hectáreas. Under the reforms, the University also gained the Newcastle branch of the NSW Conservatorium of Music located in the city's central business district.
en 1998, the university established a partnership with the Institut Wira, a Malaysian private business school. en 2002, Ian Firms, a lecturer, failed a large number of student papers from Wira for academic dishonesty, but his actions were reversed by the Newcastle administration and he was discharged. He then appealed to the New South Wales Independent Commission Against Corruption, which made a finding of corruption against Dr Paul Ryder, a failure by Vice Chancellor Roger Holmes in the execution of his duty and recommended disciplining the Deputy Vice Chancellor, Professor Brian English.
en 2003, the University of Newcastle, together with five other Australian universities (Macquarie, La Trobe, Flinders, Griffith and Murdoch) established Innovative Research Universities Australia (IRUA).
Forty years after obtaining autonomy, the University of Newcastle has developed a reputable position in national and international university standings; ranked in the 10–14 range of the 38 universities in Australia by the Shanghai Jiao Tong University and 215th in the world by the Times Higher Education Supplement en 2007.
The university unveiled a new logo on 31 marzo 2007 as part of a brand refresh to align the university's image more closely with its new strategic direction.
en 11 maio 2007, the university launched a campus at the PSB Academy's two main campuses in Singapore. en 30 xullo 2015, Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete was the first head of state to be awarded an honorary degree (Doctor of Laws) by the university.

I've been using the ReportViewer .NET control recently for a project at work. I'm using a collection of data objects as a data source, and while the ReportViewer itself works great, the documentation doesn't really go beyond putting things together in the Visual Studio designer. It's actually just as easy to do the configuration in code at run time, which is useful if you need to choose from multiple reports or types of data. Just add the ReportViewer control in the designer, but use the following code example instead of choosing a report and bindings context.
Note that the ReportEmbeddedResource string must include the full namespace as well as the file name. If you're not sure what data set name to use, just open your report in the XML viewer.

State sanctioned violence has utilized science, religion, academia, gender binary, amongst other systems of oppression to justify its acts of oppression, genocide, rape, slavery, subjugation and conversion . It has demanded that we assimilate, erase ourselves our heritage, to show obedience to these destructive ideologies. Feigning safety, equality and freedom while killing us at every turn.
We have seen these same conditions replicated in social justice spaces where we have yet to experience a demonstrated intentional sustainable investment in the socio- economic growth, cultivation of political and earning power of Black trans leadership. In partnership with Gilead Sciences, Black Women's Health Imperative, ISA Associates, HBO and National Geographic and led by our Chief Operating Officer and West Coast Leadership Samantha Jo Dato, our Black Trans Health Initiative seeks to create spaces for our communities to engage in healing strategies, curate spaces of safety, awareness and empowerment while providing sustainable economic opportunities for our members to thrive.
Our efforts center those in our community who have not had access to resources, opportunities and sustainable systems of support to live unapologetically in their truths; Trans and gender non-conforming people of color, in particularly Black trans women and femmes, poor, indigenous, disabled, our seniors and youth who are disproportionately impacted by structural and state sanctioned violence that impacts our socio-economic growth and development and is inextricably linked to physical violence and discrimination we face daily.
There is a critical need for trans youth of color led initiatives that cultivate affirming spaces for our communities to engage in healing and restorative justice. We lean in with an intentional response to the trauma our community has endured by leading with the voices and leadership of our youth and young people.
TWOCC seeks to shift the narrative of surviving to thriving in our communities. We strive to build economic empowerment and global networks that connect rural communities with suburban enclaves, inner city youth with elders, donors with Black trans entrepreneurs, healers with those seeking to be whole and collaborators with agitators.
Our work elevates those in our community who have had their voices stolen, usurped, commodified, silenced and exploited by cis gaze, colonization, anti-Blackness, imperialism and transphobia.
Our mission is to uplift the narratives, leadership and lived experiences of trans and gender non-conforming people of color while building toward the collective liberation of all oppressed people.
Our Community Teach Ins, advocacy workshops and direct actions serve as an avenue for our community members to enhance their skills as community organizers, become policy proficient and expand social justice efforts.
Our Visibility Campaigns serves as a vehicle to raise awareness of our lived experiences. It is an opportunity for our community members to share their stories and tell their own truths in an effort to be affirmed and see themselves reflected in the social justice landscape.
As we build economic growth and development for our community, we are enhancing the capacity of future leaders by equipping them with the tools to navigate systems designed to kill them. Pouring into the lives of Black trans youth is a revolutionary act. We are showing the world that there is a place where we belong, that our community members have a home, that we are loved by our chosen family and that our lives have tremendous purpose. We believe that everyone deserves to exist in a world where they are celebrated in their truth. Through our Community Funds, we support the everyday lives, goals and dreams of our members.
Our Survival Fund is used to assist with financial needs that can range from a meal, car fare, hygiene products, assistance with bill pay, a pair of shoes and so much more.
Our education fund is used to support the efforts of our members who engage capacity building, community education and cultural competence as participants in National Coalitions, and Conferences.
Core to our work is a deep investment in healing and collective care. It is critical for trans people of color to curate spaces that center our health and wellness as well as leadership development. Our wellness fund supports our leadership retreats, community events (which are free to trans people), dinners and gatherings.
Trans, gender non-conforming and non-binary Black and Brown people are disproportionately impacted by high rates of homelessness, trauma, criminalization, under-employment and incarceration and which is inextricably linked to state sanctioned violence.
All of our work is led by the narratives, leadership and voices of our community members who exist at the nexus of state sanctioned violence. Sex workers, poor people, homelessness and folk experiencing housing insecurity, healing from trauma while deeply entrenched in complex, seemingly inescapable traumatic environments. Through healing and restorative justice, are building a network of trans, non-binary people of color who are entrepreneurs, consultants and content creators to share and cultivate economic empowerment and sustainable projects for us and by us.

Lady luck smiled on Castle Nantgarw Bingo Club when Tracy Evans, an IT controller from Nelson Caerphilly, won £81,206.50 from the new National Bingo Game Jackpot!
The occasional bingo dabbler scooped the whopping cash prize on a Sunday night out with her sister and Bingo buddies, including the £25,000 National Prize and a £56,000 progressive Jackpot prize too!
Tracy's win came almost exactly one year on from receiving the devastating news that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. In the past year she has remained incredibly strong and positive whilst undergoing six rounds of chemotherapy, a full mastectomy and radiotherapy.
Tracy's positivity paid off. After her mastectomy she was told that there was no residual cancer in the breast and the chemotherapy has done the job. Tracy has one scan left and is looking forward to be given the all clear in the very near future.
Tracy was playing bingo with her sister and Bingo Buddy, Barbara Morris-Brown when she scooped the Jackpot on Sunday 23rd February. The two occasionally play at their 'bingo home' Castle Nantgarw, where their mother is a regular face, playing up to three times a week. It was a running joke between the three of them that Tracy was the unlucky one as she had never called 'house' on a game before.
Tracy says: 'I had rubbish 2013 and my whole family have been there every step of the way. My sister and I were in shares on the evening, anything we won that night belonged to the two of us - if I'd have won £10, she would have had £5. That's the kind of relationship we have and we wouldn't consider anything else.
Tracy also revealed that she vows to spend the money wisely, but the sisters plan to treat their families to a trip to Disneyland Paris.
The team at Castle Nantgarw held a celebratory party for Tracy and all the club regulars on Sunday 2nd March. She was presented with the £81,000 cheque by Castle Bingo CEO, Jeffrey Harris and his wife Susan.
Tracy and sister were picked up in a Rolls Royce with Jeffrey and Susan Harris and escorted to the club for the celebration and private champagne buffet. The other 700 players were treated to free bubbly and dinner, courtesy of Castle Bingo, to mark the occasion.
Marcus Mclean, Club Manager said: 'We were all very excited by the new National Bingo Game Jackpot and were thrilled for Tracy when she won.
Taking part couldn't be easier, simply visit your local club, or go online to find your nearest participating club and get down for a session!
For updates on the National Bingo Game jackpot follow Twitter @NationalBingo and visit www.nationalbingo.co.uk. To stay up to date on the bingo news, winners, fun and games join our Facebook page Facebook/nationalbingo-game.
All players must be aged 18 or over. The National Bingo Game is played under the provisions of The Gambling Act 2005. Players should always gamble responsibly and play the National Bingo Game within their limits.

The perfect painting contractor in Savannah, GA may seem hard to find but it doesn't have to be that way. Dissecting the wheat from the chaff just isn't what you need to spend your time doing. The Painting Pro Guys are recognized as the top rated and most reliable painting contractors in Savannah. You should use these tactics when attempting to select a contractor for your painting needs.
Choosing a painting contractor can be a matter of balancing cost and quality to find the very best value. Hiring the cheapest can be more expensive in the long run due to poor quality project or poor quality material used. The lowest price contractor may have to do the job more than one time where a more reputable contractor can finish the job correctly the very first time. Do not forget to research the quality of the paint brand by putting in a call to your local paint store.
Every time a painting contractor quotes a price that seems too good to be true, you could have good reason to be suspicious. Ensure that the service provider you work with will stay in business as soon as the project is finished, especially if you have a high concern about the warranty. You can eventually find yourself attempting to collect on a warranty from a contractor that's no longer in business. Warranty coverage should be offered to you and offered in writing.
Insist on getting three references from each prospective painting contractor. Our painters ensure every customer is absolutely delighted with their completed paint job before they pack up and leave. A comprehensive list of customers who love the work that we've done can be provided to you. After we've completed a job for you, you'll be ushered into the alumni of the very satisfied customers The Painting Pro Guys have helped.
When you talk with the references your service provider has given you, ask them if their property was treated with respect and care. Specifically, ask how well they cleaned up when they were done for the day and when the entire job was finished. A professional painting contractor should return the house to its original condition. Working with an irresponsible and careless contractor can risk damage and loss to your furniture and property.
Always ensure that you're able to see their liability insurance policy on paper. A licensed insurance company will only underwrite and approve people who have been secured as an acceptable risk. Working with an uninsured contractor will put your property and time at risk – two things you do not want to lose. Painting contractors typically are extremely careful not to take any chances that can result in a lawsuit that might result in increased premiums or cancellation of their policy.
Paying attention to whether or not your painting contractor has professional signage on his vehicle is a good idea. Everyone has the option to go through a car rental establishment to rent a pickup truck. Checking any and all signs to effectively ensure that it has a local number is something you should really do. Be sure you call the number listed on the vehicle to discover if they have a professional answering their phone or if it's a private line.
If you do desire to live on site during the project, a legit contractor will probably be in a position to present you with info on their plan for dealing with the mess. There needs to be a plan that's drawn up and presented to you just before the project, despite whether you plan on occupying the property during the painting project or not. This report will lay out the details, timelines, and expectations during the entire project. The Painting Pro Guys will review the plan with you and answer any remaining questions you might have before the work begins.
Ask prospective painting contractors for a description of their process, from the very first step to the last. A licensed painting contractor may go with a room to room style of work, and another may go with a style where he finishes every room all simultaneously. Painting is a messy process that generates a lot of trash, so ensure your local contractor agrees to eliminate it at the end of each and every work day. Additionally, ensure your local contractor will perform a complete cleanup when the work is completely done.
The question you should ask is how the local service provider will prevent a potential mess. A reliable and professional painter is conscious of the importance heavy plastic provides. The plastic sheets are overlapped to create an effective barrier, not only for paint, but additionally for the dust created by sanding surfaces before painting. The tape that reads "Men Working" looks just like the movie crime scene and is also used to wrap a whole painting area.
To prevent young ones from entering a room under construction, have the price quoted for heavy drapery that distracts people from entering. Wet paint and kids do not mix, unless you like the look of little hand prints on your walls. Professional painters should be in a position to avoid a possible mess. Painters do not want to return and reconfigure a whole wall.
Conveying the pros and cons of his products from memory is something a professional contractor should have the opportunity to do. They typically come to your home to make a professional presentation and help you define what you are looking for. A reliable contractor can recall the good and bad of his products and walk you through the price options without using documentation. A painting contractor who must search for product features or prices probably doesn't have very much experience.
After your service provider draws up the formal agreement, read it very carefully to see to it that it includes all of your specifications for the job, exactly as you stated them. In the long run, as long as you see to it that everything you and your service provider have agreed upon is clearly stated in the contract, it's going to save you a lot of time and money. The local contractor you are working with should be aware of each and every concern and inquiry you have before you sign any document presented to you. If there're things about your contractual agreement that you do not fully understand, make sure to consult with your lawyer before you sign off on them.
Regardless of how careful and thoughtful you're about selecting paint colors and textures, sometimes what you see in your mind doesn't match what you see on your walls when the work is done. The durability of the paint you've chosen is much more important than any extra charges you may incur after changing plans. Do not settle for less when it's about the quality you seek concerning your project. The Painting Pro Guys have made it their mission to effectively ensure your complete satisfaction with the results of your project.

In the past, big corporates who gave shoddy customer service had little to fear: the worst that could happen was was loss of repeat business from a customer who was probably more trouble than he was worth anyway.

A Toowoomba protest drawing attention to Work for the Dole. The ACTU says 187,000 people are on the program. (IMAGE: Australian Unemployed Workers' Union)
How Work For The Dole 'Discriminates', Even After Death
By Max Chalmers on	 May 3, 2016 Workers' Rights
The death of a young man in Queensland has provoked questions about the safety of the program, while drawing attention to the disparity between those forced to work for welfare, and those employed in a regular job. Max Chalmers reports.
Toowoomba, in regional Queensland, is not the place you would expect to find Australia's chief unionist on a weekend marking international action for workers' rights.
But in the wake of an accident that has shaken the nearby town of Meringandan, and provoked deeper questions about the treatment of Australians unable to find work, it's where ACTU President Ged Kearney decided to spend part of the weekend, joining a procession of around 250 people commemorating May Day.
Two weeks earlier, 18-year-old local Josh Park-Fing had been working at the Toowoomba Showground. Josh had been cleaning the site and collecting wheelie bins and chairs – a seemingly innocuous task. But as the young man rode around the grounds where the show is held, something went wrong. A tractor pulling the flatbed trailer on which Josh perched reportedly slipped a gear. Apparently jolted by the change in momentum, the teenager fell from the trailer and was killed.
Hailing from Meringandan, Josh's death left the small community in a state of shock and mourning, with a funeral held on Friday.
The nature of the work he was doing also ensured the story reached far further, eventually drawing Kearney to visit, and eliciting expressions of sympathy from a government Minister, the opposition, and the Greens.
Josh had been working as part of the Federal government's work for the dole program.
Josh Park-Fing, right.
On the very same day the young man was killed – in a grim coincidence – a group of unionists, social workers, activists and unemployed workers met in Melbourne. The conference was organised by the Australian Unemployed Workers' Union, and heard testimony from people placed in Work for the Dole programs about the absence of proper safety measures on their sites. Little did they know that at the moment they were discussing these problems, the program claimed what may be its first fatality.
In the wake of the accident, Josh's family have kept a low profile and requested privacy. They did not take part in the weekend's May Day procession.
But their son's death has drawn attention to a disparity which the ACTU is now describing as a form of discrimination.
People like Josh may be effectively exchanging their labour for payment but, as the Department of Employment is keen to emphasise, they are not considered paid workers. In spite of performing what are called "work-like" activities, and facing the kind of repercussions a regular employee might face if they fail to perform their tasks (i.e. non-payment) they do not enjoy the same rights.
It's a legal distinction that endures even after death.
According to the Department of Employment, those on Work for the Dole sites generally do not qualify for state and territory Workers' Compensation schemes. As a result, the Department has its own insurance scheme, one which the ACTU claims is far less generous than the entitlements open to regular workers.
In a statement, the ACTU told New Matilda that dependents of a worker killed at work could be entitled to up to $500,000, depending on circumstances. Under the Department of Employment's insurance scheme, the maximum payment is just half of that, coming in at $250,000.
A spokesperson for the Department confirmed the $250,000 cap, but said their insurance policies were comparable with those available to volunteers. "The Department's insurance policies are not workers' compensation policies," they said.
In the Union's view, the discrepancy in entitlements is indicative of a bigger problem.
"Our key concern is that the government is supporting and indeed promoting two levels of workers in this country," Kearney told New Matilda.
If you think of Work for the Dole workers as the same as someone with a regular employer, that's obviously true, and their situation starts to look like a double insult. Why shouldn't someone forced to work for their income be entitled to earn the minimum wage, for example. And then there's the question of compensation.
"The compensation regimes are discriminatory and create a situation where one set of workers are more valued – from a compensation perspective – than another," Kearney said. "Every Australian worker should be treated equally."
The Department denies the claim of discrimination, again on the basis that people placed in Work for the Dole are not classified as paid workers.
Labor's shadow Employment Minister Brendan O'Connor said he had been briefed on the death of Park-Fing, but that it was too soon to comment on the specific details.
Greens' spokesperson Rachel Siewert said it was not appropriate for Work for the Dole participants to be offered lower levels of compensation.
"I'm not a fan of the Work for the Dole program to begin with, but from what I've seen reported, and conversations we've been following up, it doesn't seem like there was any safety processes in place," she said. "It leads me to question then, is this common across Work for the Dole programs?"
On the day that Josh Park-Fing died, Christabel Dodds had been working with Josh's mother at a local department store. Police had come to their workplace to inform the single mother that one of her five children would not be returning home.
Dodds hadn't known Josh before the accident, but is currently fundraising to assist the family, and said it now feels as though she had. Dodds has raised $7,500 and told New Matilda that, as far as she knew, compensation was a long way from the family's concerns at present.
"I don't thing it's even really hit them properly yet, that he's not coming back," Dodds said.
"At the moment they're just trying to grieve, and come to terms with what happened, and give him the best send-off."
She said the family had been embarrassed to even accept the offer to fundraise for them.
With Josh's death being investigated by Workplace Health and Safety Queensland, we may eventually know more about how the young man lost his life, and whether his placement in the program involved appropriate occupational health and safety practices.
According to Safe Work Australia, there have been 41 worker fatalities so far in 2016. However this one is classified, the impact on Meringandan has undeniably been severe.
"It's hit everyone," Dodds said. "Even where I work, I'm in contact with a lot of people. I've had customers come up and say, 'I don't cry, but this made me cry'."

It has never been easier to choose your Honda tire size. Below you will find a unique directory of tire sizes across Honda models. Get the best tire size for Honda by specifying your Honda model and year. Our catalog provides data with possible tire size range for Honda models.
Each car goes with a specific tire size that has three basic parameters – protector width, aspect ratio (distance from the ground to the lower edge of the rim) and rim diameter. Tire size measurements are not of a random choice. Those dimensions emerge with many factors and calculations taken into consideration by the manufacturer as they can have a huge impact on such car performance indicators as speed, gas mileage, driving comfort on a highway or off road, safety, etc. We recommend installing the original tire size for your Honda provided by the manufacturer.

"We have used Pinsight in the selection of a Managing Director Designate recently. We started with 314 candidates and used Pinsight for the last 3. To say I was impressed would be an under statement. The nuances and information provided by this 3 hour computer simulation were most impressive and very insightful. I also liked the fact that the candidates have access for 12 months so that even if unsuccessful with us, they could use the information in their career development. We are about to appoint a Sales Director designate and will use Pinsight again in the final stages.
I wish you and the system every future success and will be pleased if you want to use this testimonial in promoting Pinsight."
"I met Janice / Pinsight as part of the selection process for the position at Europa Components, and I cannot begin to say how impressed I have been.
The process (business case simulation & subsequent feedback / development cycle) has been truly amazing and by far the most professional, thought provoking and challenging I have ever faced. Despite thorough preparation on my part, it was still challenging in the extreme whilst remaining fun at the same time.
The preparation information and background for the 3 hour simulation was so well done, the mechanism itself of undertaking the simulation expertly managed and the live interaction during the simulation provided a real life scenario that tested and engaged me. I've never seen anything so well constructed in my professional career.
The superb and in-depth follow up review with Janice was enlightening, and given the quality of the opportunities for development it proposed, I found it truly inspirational.
Having been through typical interview and psychometric evaluations before, the Pinsight method/system was by far the most stretching, engaging, challenging and enjoyable I have ever had - I could not recommend it and Janice enough as part of a truly holistic and thorough engagement process."

8 Must-See Lighthouses Across the U.S.
by Olivia Abel
It's no wonder so many people love visiting lighthouses. These beautiful, one-of-a-kind structures transport us back to a bygone era when life was simpler and shipping was the center of both commerce and passenger travel. The fact that these beacons are often situated in spectacular natural settings doesn't hurt either, while stories of lonely lighthouse keepers battling the elements only adds to the intrigue. Of the more than 750 now automated lighthouses in the U.S.—many preserved by dedicated volunteer groups and open to visitors—about 75 percent still serve as navigational devices. These are some of our favorites from across the country.
Battery Point Lighthouse, Crescent City, California
This cozy little structure, made of brick and granite, routinely shows up on lists of the country's most haunted lighthouses. First lit in 1856, it helped boats carrying lumber navigate the craggy coast near this busy shipping hub north of San Francisco. It's now a museum, but heads up—you can only visit during low tide.
Share This Slide
Loggerhead Lighthouse, the Dry Tortugas, Florida
Constructed in 1858, this 150-foot tall tower stands on one of the seven remote islands in the Dry Tortugas National Park, almost 70 miles west of Key West. (This uninhabited tropical island is also known as the home of breeding Loggerhead turtles.) One of only two Gulf of Mexico lighthouses that stayed in full operation during the Civil War, you must now make special arrangements in advance to visit.
Eldred Rock Lighthouse, Lynn Canal, Alaska
This historic 1906 octagonal building, situated on a small uninhabited island in the Lynn Canal, is the oldest (and only wooden) remaining lighthouse in Alaska. It was constructed after a ship carting 800 pounds of gold on its way from Skagway to Seattle ran aground, killing everyone on board. Due to disrepair, the lighthouse is not currently open to visitors, but many boat tours and ferries get close enough to provide a good look.
The Saugerties Lighthouse, Saugerties, New York
This Italianate, red-brick building, first lit in 1869, was one of 14 lighthouses on the Hudson River in the mid-1800s shipping heyday. It fell into disrepair in the 1950s, but has since been transformed into a cozy two-bedroom B&B and museum. The lighthouse is only accessible by boat or by a half-mile trail through a beautiful nature preserve, but beware as high tide puts the trail underwater twice a day.
Biloxi Lighthouse, Biloxi, Mississippi
Built in 1848, this structure was one of the first cast-iron lighthouses in the South. Known for having several female lighthouse keepers, including one who tended the light for 53 years, this beacon on the Mississippi Sound has endured many serious storms, including Hurricane Katrina. That specific storm surge enveloped more than a third of the 64-foot lighthouse. Daily guided tours are available.
Big Sable Point Lighthouse, Ludington, Michigan
Nestled among pine trees in Ludington State Park, this 1867 tower kept this treacherous—in 1855 twelve ships wrecked in that area— but important shipping lane on Lake Michigan safe for generations of sailors. In 1949 it became the final Great Lakes lighthouse to be electrified. Today, visitors can take a 1.5-mile walk to tour the 112-foot lighthouse; some volunteers are even allowed to temporarily live and work there.
Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Buxton, North Carolina
Since 1871, this iconic striped lighthouse, the tallest brick one in the U.S., has towered over the treacherous waters off Cape Hatteras, aptly nicknamed the "Graveyard of the Atlantic." In 1999, in an amazing feat of engineering, the lighthouse was moved a half mile inland to save it from beach erosion common on the Outer Banks. Visitors today can climb 257 steps to the top of the 208-foot structure.
South East Lighthouse, Block Island, Rhode Island
Considered one of the most architecturally sophisticated 19th century U.S. lighthouses, this gothic brick building sits atop a bluff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Originally lit in 1875, the light was changed from a fixed white to a flashing green light to distinguish it from Montauk Point. The light was deactivated in 1990 and moved back from the edge of the cliff three years later. The lighthouse museum is open on weekends.

Over the last week I've gotten several pitches from companies taking a new twist on OpenTable's business. One of two things has happened: Either there's a new flurry of activity around the restaurant reservation/recommendation/lead generation space or having groused about OpenTable and recently posed a question on whether they should be disrupted, I've just become the go-to target for anyone launching a business in this space. Either way if you're a restauranteur looking for a better way, watch this space, because the topic will keep coming up.
Tripleseat's founder, Jonathan Morse, says an average client makes 30% of their income from private events and managing them is a huge headache, because they take a lot more coordination and details than a restaurant full of individual diners. Especially since private events tend to come in clumps, especially during the Holidays. As someone with 20 years experience in the hospitality and restaurant business, he's seen the pain first-hand. OpenTable isn't optimized to handle it and most restaurants are just using pen and paper and basic Excel files.
But the opportunity aside, one reason to watch Tripleseat is that they're building the company completely outside the usual Silicon Valley Web echo-chamber. The company is headquartered in Boston, and turned to Omaha for its Web development and, now, its funding. Until now the company has been bootstrapped, and it's done pretty well with no cash: It manages $140 million in event revenues for about 100 customers, many of which are sizable hotel and restaurant groups. The company's revenues are a fraction of that, they charge between $100 and $300 a month for their software as a service package. But it's an indication of their value to a restaurant or hotel.
Morse and a handful of sales people have built the company since 2008, mostly doing meetings over the Web and cold-calling, boldly saying his business doesn't need a big on-the-ground-sales team. I'm not so sure he's right, at least if he wants to become a large company. Software as a service products are great for getting revenues quickly, but most of the big ones have built huge salesforces and taken a decade or more of work to get to point where they could go public. OpenTable, although a hardware and software solution, is a great example of that playbook done well. But I respect Morse's staunchly anti-Valley mindset. He believes this business will take time to build no matter what and organic and sensible growth is safer than rather than raising a ton of money and throwing dozens of sales people at the problem all at once.
Every week on my TechCrunchTV show, Ask a VC, we get questions on how cities like Omaha and entrepreneurs like Morse who have deep domain expertise, but aren't coders and are outside the Valley system can get attention from VCs. And nearly every guest always says look to your own community first, build something good and money and attention will come. Maybe Tripleseat will take double the time to get to OpenTable's size, but the company deserves props for taking that advice and building a solid business whether they get the Valley's blessing or not.
