Q: How to scrape a site by loading content via triggering load more button? I need to scrape the titles for all blog post articles via a Load More button as set by my desired range for i in range(1,3):
At present I'm only able to capture the titles for the first page even though i'm able to navigate to the next page using selenium.
Update:
In a previous question (How To Scrape Content With Load More Pages Using Selenium Python) by myself the pagination url was captured via:
Network Tab > Reload Page > Click Show more button > Select wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?...... Right Click Copy > Copy Link Address.
However, i do not know how to capture similar url for the site learnwoo.com/blog. I'm not sure if it uses a different technique.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Home Uncategorized Reynolds to stay as Dem. Chair
Reynolds to stay as Dem. Chair
Rep. Gene Reynolds, D-Minden, has decided not to step down as House Democratic Caucus Chair, and the hope for true tax reform is the reason, he said.
"For right now," he said, "and when the normal elections come around, I'm going to step aside and let somebody else have it, but we're maybe looking at a special session, and we can't have a special session until we know what it is we can do. The tax structure is so important to get done."
He said at the urging of several people from the Democratic and Republican parties, he decided to stay in the position to help organize a series of meetings to discuss tax reform structure.
"It's something that we're going to have to do," he said. "That was the driving thing behind it. I think we're ready to work, and I think that's encouraging. That's the reason I want to get back in there and get back into the normal swing."
Reynolds will remain the Democratic Caucus chair for the next two years until elections.
Since the closing of the special session in June, Reynolds said there has been genuine discussion by the Democrats and the Republicans to begin tax reform talks.
"We'll probably hold a series of retreats before we even talk about a special session and talk about what we can get the votes for," he said. "The key number on some of these important issues is 70. What can we get 70 votes on? With the feedback I've been getting the last couple of days, I'm starting to think we can get this done.
It's going to take some work."
If a special session is called, it would be after both parties strongly agree on reform, he said. The legislature could call the special session, but Reynolds said he would go to Gov. John Bel Edwards and present a proposed reform package that would pass.
A tax reform package to stabilize the tax structure and stop the state from depending on temporary taxes is the entire goal, he reiterated.
"If our two groups can agree on something, we'll sit down with the governor and tell him, 'Look, we can do this. We have the votes, and if you call a special session, we know we can get this accomplished,'" he said. "Until that happens, I don't think we'll have a special session."

Non-profit suing BLM over lease sales
The Western Energy Alliance filed a lawsuit against the Bureau of Land Management on Thursday.
Non-profit suing BLM over lease sales The Western Energy Alliance filed a lawsuit against the Bureau of Land Management on Thursday. Check out this story on CurrentArgus.com: http://c-cargus.co/2bl3gEh
Maddy Hayden, Carlsbad Current-Argus Published 4:45 p.m. MT Aug. 11, 2016
This Feb. 26, 2015 photo, shows an oil well on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation near Mandaree, North Dakota. U.S. officials announced plans Thursday, July 28, 2016, to speed up permitting for oil and gas drilling on federal and American Indian lands to reduce delays, as applications were projected to be down amid an ongoing price slump.(Photo: Matthew Brown/The Associated Press)
The Western Energy Alliance filed a lawsuit against U.S. Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell and the Bureau of Land Management on Thursday, due to their failure to conduct an adequate number of oil and gas lease sales annually.
The lawsuit cites the Mineral Leasing Act, which requires each state hold at least four land lease sales every year where eligible lands are available.
Bureau of Land Management spokeswoman Kimberly Brubeck said the BLM is aware of the lawsuit but is unable to comment on pending litigation.
"Lease sales shall be held for each State where eligible lands are available at least quarterly and more frequently if the Secretary of the Interior determines such sales are necessary." — Mineral Leasing Act
The Western Energy Alliance is a non-profit organization that represents around 300 companies in the oil and gas industry.
Kathleen Sgamma, vice president of government and public affairs at the Western Energy Alliance, said the Bureau of Land Management is often hampered by its own bureaucracy when planning sales.
"In 2010, the Department (of the Interior) made leasing changes and those policies have resulted in leasing taking two years, where it used to be a matter of months," Sgamma said.
Those changes were made to provide more opportunity for public comment and to improve the environmental screening process for available parcels.
The changes also instituted sale scheduling restrictions, in which sales must be held in each district where land is available on a rotational basis.
"There's still a lot of interest in the Permian Basin, but lease sales will only happen there once a year," Sgamma said.
Only two oil and gas lease sales were held in New Mexico in Fiscal Year 2015 and only once during this fiscal year. Some were due to postponements, and others were due to a lack of expressions of interest.
Sgamma said New Mexico also suffers more than some other states because the BLM administrates Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Kansas together.
The lawsuit seeks the rescindment of policies Sgamma said are creating the problem (including the rotational policy) and for the BLM to begin carrying out four oil and gas lease sales in each state each year.
Maddy Hayden can be reached at 575-628-5512.

Position:Home > news >zegerid magnesium
zegerid magnesium
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Zegerid with Magnesium Hydroxide (omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate/magnesium hydroxide) Chewable Tablets 40 mg/600 mg/700 mg and 20 mg/600 mg/700 mg, an immediate-release proton pump inhibitor (PPI).
Zegerid Chewable Tablets are indicated for the treatment of heartburn and other symptoms associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), the short-term treatment (four to eight weeks) of erosive esophagitis diagnosed by endoscopy and active benign gastric ulcers, the short-term treatment of active duodenal ulcers and for maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis (controlled studies do not extend beyond 12 months).
About Zegerid
The Zegerid family of products, including capsule, powder for oral suspension and chewable tablet dosage forms, offer a distinct pharmacological profile -- rapidly reaching maximal plasma levels (in approximately 30 minutes) and providing acid control, with a median 24-hour gastric pH of greater than 4 ranging from 12.2 hours to 18.6 hours, depending on the strength and dosage form, after repeated once-daily dosing. Zegerid can be conveniently taken once-a-day anytime during the day on an empty stomach, at least one hour before a meal.
PPIs are widely prescribed for a variety of diseases and disorders of the upper digestive tract. All currently marketed oral PPIs, other than Zegerid, are delayed-release formulations that utilize an enteric coating to protect the PPI from acid degradation, which delays absorption and initial acid suppression. Unlike delayed-release PPIs, Zegerid utilizes one or more antacids in lieu of an enteric coating to protect the omeprazole from gastric acid degradation. The antacids neutralize stomach acid and protect the PPI, omeprazole, from gastric acid degradation and allow for its rapid absorption and suppression of gastric acid.
The most frequently reported adverse events with Zegerid are headache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. In critically ill patients treated with Zegerid, adverse events generally reflected the serious, underlying medical condition of the patients, and were similar for patients treated with Zegerid and with the comparator (acid-controlling) drug. Symptomatic response to therapy does not preclude the presence of gastric malignancy. Atrophic gastritis has been noted occasionally in gastric corpus biopsies from patients treated long term with omeprazole.
Zegerid Capsules contain 300 mg of sodium per dose in the form of sodium bicarbonate (1100 mg/13 mEq), and Zegerid Powder for Oral Suspension contains 460 mg of sodium per dose in the form of sodium bicarbonate (1680 mg/20 mEq). The chewable tablet dosage form contains 600 mg (7 mEq) of sodium bicarbonate. This should be taken into consideration for patients on a sodium-restricted diet. Sodium bicarbonate is contraindicated in patients with metabolic alkalosis and hypocalcemia. The chewable tablet dosage form also contains 700 mg (24 mEq) of magnesium hydroxide. The use of magnesium hydroxide is associated with diarrhea, abdominal cramping, chalky taste, diuresis, dehydration, nausea and vomiting. Zegerid is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation.

Microdermabrasion benefits people with uneven pigmentation, fine lines and clogged pores can benefit from a series treatments. Although after just one session you will notice improvement, we suggest having regular treatments based on your skin type/skin issue.
Skin type/issue does play a major factor in determining how often you should be treated. Oily, clogged or pigmentation issues skin can receive a micro as often as ever 2 weeks. Dry, aging, dull skin should be a consistent monthly routine.
Microdermabrasion stimulates blood flow, which increases the nutrition delivered to skin cells. This improves cell production, which improves skin's elasticity and texture.
Every session not only improves pigmentation and unclogs pores, it also has great anti aging benefits. Making microdermabrasion great multi tasker!
Cellulite is considered normal and very common. Cellulite is actually caused by fibrous tethers that run through your fat and pull on the fascia that lies underneath your skin resulting in lumpy, bumpy thighs and buttocks. It effects up to 90 percent of women and approximately 10 percent of men. Getting rid of those pesky dimples takes a dedicated routine. Ideally dry brushing and caffeine based scrub should be done 3 to 5 times per week to smooth the appearance of cellulite.
Dry brushing is good for glowing skin, manual lymphatic drainage and also helps to remove cellulite from the body by boosting oxygen into the blood.
There is a right way to dry brush. Make sure to research the proper techniques and always brush towards the heart. Dry brushing helps to remove cellulite from the body by boosting oxygen into the blood. Dry brushing is not recommended for the face!
Realistically, most people will not be able to do a full body dry brushing 5-10 minutes 3-5 times a week. I suggest targeting the buttocks, thighs and belly for 30 seconds each directly before bathing.
Once you are done with your regular bathing routine, apply a coffee based body scrub. It is important to do the scrub last before ending bathing. The oils in this scrub do make the tub/shower slippery, so take caution. Caffeine tightens and provides antioxidants when applied to skin topically. This will leave your skin soft, glowy and moisturized.Here is a wonderful DYI scrub recipe.
Here at Drift Wellness Studio we provide a dry brushing service. It is an add service to any massage or facial. We get to those hard to reach areas and let's face it, it feels good. Come in a relax and refresh today.
I truly felt that I had made a connection with a client, we just clicked. When she no longer showed up for regular facials, I asked myself what did I do wrong? It feels strange on a professional side to inquire about why she was no longer coming in.
Over one year later, she walks in with an ear to ear smile and a slight tear in her eye.
She explained that when I expressed numerous times to please, please go see a Dermatologist about a spot on her face that I was concerned about, she began to worry.
She took my advice, went to the Dermatologist and they confirmed my suspicion. It was indeed, melanoma.
Her situation was dire. Immediate removal and Mohs surgery was required. 6 stitches the first test removal and over 25 internal stitches during Mohs.
Let's just say there was a lot of tears, hugs and long conversations about how much I missed her and her smile.
Knowing that I truly made an impact on someone's life is a life changing moment for both of us.
So on this note, please take the time to get a yearly full body check at a Dermatologist.
Best wishes for the New Year and Health!
Going into the winter month's, it is important to protect your skin. The combination of lowered humidity from heaters, wind and cold, our skin begins to feel the weather. We have just the facial treatment to combat winter skin. The Winter Repair Facial is a full 90 minute treatment designed specifically to rehydrate dry winterized skin. We start off with a skin analysis to ensure that every treatment is fully customized to each individual's needs. Next a deep cleansing followed by a full face microdermabrasion treatment, a customized masque and hand and a foot massage. The masque is removed by a warm steamed towel, a vitamin packed serum is applied and then a complete facial massage including; face, shoulders, neck and scalp.

Dry brushing has so many health and skin benefits, but how does it work?
Exfoliation: This is what most will notice immediately, softer and much smoother skin! The process of running a firm brush on dry skin helps loosen and remove dead skin cells, thus naturally exfoliating skin.
Clean Pores: When you dry brush you are exfoliating, that also means that you are clearing your pores of oil, dirt and impurities.
Lymphatic System: When you dry brush it will kick start you lymphatic system, which eliminates toxins. The stiffer the brush (bristles) the better the stimulation.
Cellulite: What, cellulite? Yes, it helps reduce cellulite. Cellulite is really toxic materials that have accumulated in your body's fat cells and are stuck and unable to be eliminated from the body. Dry brushing helps break down those trapped toxins from within and helps eliminate them naturally.
In-grown Hair: When dry brushing you are exfoliating, that means you are removing a thin layer or dead skin build-up. If you suffer from ingrown hair, particularly from shaving, when this layer is removed it allows the hair to grow in its natural direction and avoid infection.

Ive always had a passion for aromatherapy. As a teen, I experimented with oil blends and my fair share of patchouli. My teacher in massage school was a highly skilled aromatherapist from England and she taught us in depth blending techniques beyond what is typically taught. Ive been working with essential oils for my skincare products for years now but have recently dove into the therapeutic benefits for the mind and spirit. I enjoy doing energy work and the aromatherapy works in harmony with that type of healing. Using specific essential oils during my reiki and massage treatments allows me to enhance the relaxation and bring a deeper healing to my clients. I'm now offering customized aromatherapy blends. We can schedule an online consultation and I will create a blend specifically for your issues and goals. I will send you home with a 1oz oil blend to use on yourself or to bring in to be used during massages or facials. Are you stressed? Can't sleep? Dealing with grief? Bad breakup? Insecurity issues? Need help studying? Depression? Nervous energy? Aromatherapy can help with all of this. Contact us today and we can get started.
Have you stretched lately? Chances are you haven't. Many of us don't have a regular stretching routine and we forget (possibly ignore) how vital it is to our overall health. Granted who has time to stretch when there is dinner to make, dogs to walk, laundry, yoga class and the list goes on and on. Did I say "yoga class"? Yes, even those who do yoga on a regular basis could benefit from additional stretching, and here's why. If you practice yoga daily, you're probably set, but if you are a once or twice a weeker you still have 5 days a week you need to stretch. Focus on areas like chest, abdomen, hips and neck. Optimal times are before bed and upon waking, post workout or pretty much any free time you can squeeze. It doesn't have to be fancy, just taking a few minutes to get on the floor and stretch what feels good is a start. Here are a few videos to help get you started.
Ultrasonic Facial is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that is safe for all skin types and conditions, from acne or rosacea to mature skin. Even the most sensitive skin will benefit from this treatment. The application of ultrasonic frequency is used to increase cellular turnover, plump up and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, improve acne, tighten enlarged pores, relieve puffy eyes, or fade dark eye circles. The sound waves penetrate into the skin but they do not cause any discomfort or adverse side effects, making the process highly effective, with no downtime, redness or pain.
The sound wave technology is used to penetrate below the surface of the skin, ultrasound energy is absorbed which results in a slight rise in temperature in the surrounding tissue. This promotes cellular renewal and repair, increases blood circulation, encourages lymphatic drainage, combats puffiness and swelling. Sound vibrations also have the power to push nutrient-rich serums deeper into the skin, increasing active ingredient in products.

A significant majority of our clients come to us complaining about neck and shoulder pain. With the lives we lead in our society which are heavy with time on the computer or phone and driving in the car, as well as ridiculously high stress levels, it's not shocking those are the most common problem areas.
When sitting at the computer, take a 5min break every hour to get up, walk around, hydrate with water and stretch.
Try alternating sitting and standing with a standing desk.
When looking at your phone, hold your phone up in front of your face instead of looking down at it.
When driving, make sure the back of your head is touching the headrest to keep you from sitting with your head forward.
Ideally, your sleep position is laying on your back with a very thin pillow and a pillow under your knees if needed. This is the most neutral position for you muscles, it allows them to heal and balance while you are sleeping.
If you haven't been able to sleep on your back, try laying on your back with something with weight on your torso, ie a folded quilt, pillow or weighted blanket. This gives the sense of security stomach and side sleepers need in order to fall asleep.
If you're a side sleeper and you tried the above recommendation but still can't manage to fall asleep on your back, there is a way to minimize the effects on your body from sleeping on your side. First, use a medium thickness pillow under your head and make sure your head and neck are inline with your spine, as opposed to curling in forward like as in fetal position. Next, hug a pillow between your arms and legs, use two separate ones if you don't have a body pillow. Having the pillow(s) between your limbs reduces the amount of stress put on the muscles, tendons and joints.
Lastly, sleep is the most important thing! If some nights you just have to lay on your stomach to fall asleep then do so. Your body and mind need the healing and rejuvenation, every night, that sleep provides.
We offer Reiki in Athens GA. I remember my first experience with Reiki. I read about it in a book when I was a teen and couldn't wait to try it out. I went to visit my grandfather in the nursing home and somehow convinced my mom and sisters to join me in trying this strange energy work out on my grandpa who was suffering with dementia. We kind of giggled and gave it our best. Focussed our energy, our hands hovering above him. A warm, tingling energy came over us and before you know it, My Pop sprung to life and asked for a cigarette. It scared us all to death! I was sold. I went to massage school when I was 25 and studied Reiki under a fantastic British woman. I went and had my first professional treatment form her. She surrounded me with crystals, put crystals in my hands, asked me some questions and next thing you know, I was sound asleep. She was very nice and sent me on my way without much info on what had happened or what it meant. I wondered if it worked at all. I noticed a difference though. My anxiety was better and I felt more confidence for about a week.
I went on to get my Reiki I and II certification form a eccentric woman in Charlotte NC. She ran a Bed and Breakfast and was a dog breeder. A litter of puppies was born, while I was there. She was fantastic and I felt an energy I had never experienced. She attuned us to a vibration that allows us to receive and transfer the healing energy easier. 3 days of Reiki Reiki Reiki. I was really starting to connect with the idea but still feeling insecure in that "I" could do this. Suddenly her husband rushed into the room, frantic, with a brand new, hour old, puppy who was lifeless and not breathing. Teacher was calm, and continued the class while her hands were gently folded around the sagging pup. I found this kinda weird and morbid but I'm not one to judge. After about an hour, she paused her lesson and opened her palms to reveal a weak but wiggling puppy. We were all in shock. She called her husband up, he walked in and began to cry. We all jumped to attention then. We wanted to learn!
After my certification, I tried Reiki on anyone who would let me. I did distant Reiki on friends that lived in other states, any chance I could get, but still I struggled knowing if I really felt anything substantial...if I was really doing anything. During this time, I was single, raising a child, working 2 jobs, going back to school, opening a business. I was stretched so thin, I didn't know who I was anymore. I was lost. So I did something that I never really tried much before. I did Reiki on myself. It seemed to help but I still felt off, I needed proof, something visible. I did a little research and found that many people use crystals and even pendulums to assist with Reiki. I went on Amazon and ordered a well reviewed, Rose Quarts pendulum. I began to work with the crystal and built a trusting communication with it. Then I began balancing my chakras, one by one, every day. I found patterns with my emotions and body pains and what the pendulum would tell me about my chakras. I learned so much. I eventually found my way back to myself. I restored peace, faced darkness and moved forward in ways I never imagined. My body healed. I began to share my practice with trusted clients and they seemed to really enjoy the feedback. I always inform my clients on what I find and where they can research the info. It is a very personal thing for each person. Only they can really know what the result may mean to them. I fell in love with Reiki.
Then my father got sick, with terminal cancer. I did't know how to comfort this man, whom I loved so much. This quiet, conservative man that was my closest male figure but also a stranger in some ways. I'm the baby of the family and didn't know my place in all of this. I gave what I could.... Massages, lots of home cooked meals and swinging crystals over my heads head as often as possible. At first he found it weird..but he was use to that with me. Eventually he would ask me to do it. "Make sure you bring your weird hippie crystals" he'd say. We became the best of friends during that time and made some of the BEST memories of my life. We still talk every day though it's been almost a year since he passed over. I do most of the talking these days. It helped him.. I'm not sure how or why but it did.
Then the aftermath. the ones left behind, the care taker. My mom. 3 years of care taking, doctor visit, chemo recovery, praying, crying, hiding behind smiles. After it was all said and done she was down to 90 lbs and developed crippling pain in her hip and back. She wouldn't stretch, she wouldn't got to the doctor, she wouldn't eat. All she could do was complain about the pain. She was the pain. I massaged her, stretched her, nagged at her, fed her, anything I could do. Finally I busted out my crystals and said "Just try it". She thought it was ridiculous but agreed. I began reading her chakras and it made sense to me. Her heart chakra was waaayyyy off and the Root was destroyed. The Root chakra is at the base of the spine, known for causing low back pain. The Root also holds the emotions around our foundation of life, our home and family. Dad was our foundation... her everything for almost 50 years. She was broken. I began to work, with her permission, every day. I would check and balance her chakras every morning when I got out of bed doing distance Reiki. Mom was beyond belief. She tried to explain it away but would call and ask me to do distance Reiki when she felt a twinge coming back. She is pain free, eating well, traveling and making the best of every day. I cannot take credit for her massive, endless strength but I know I helped and I am so very grateful I could in some way, give back to her.
Why does it work? I really have no idea How does it work? ummm....there are lots of books about it but honestly...no clue.
I know that I now have a gift for it and I love doing it. I do it daily on myself and it SAVES me.
Emotional pain causes Physical pain and Reiki can help.

Having a beautifully aligned smile is now possible without any metal brackets, wires, or adjustments. With invisible braces, patients are able to have their alignment issues treated and the appearance of their smile improved. While children are not good candidates for this method, teenagers and adults can typically receive treatment. This information will allow people to learn more about how invisible braces work so they can make a sound decision for their smile.
Invisible braces are a made from a clear, rigid plastic that slides over the teeth. Each aligner tray is made specifically for the patient and allows the teeth to become straightened over a period of time. Once the aligner is in place over the teeth, it is practically invisible so no one will know a person is having their teeth treated. Because the aligner can be removed during eating and brushing, these braces are much easier to deal with, especially for those who do not want a mouth full of metal.
The aligners are made at the very beginning of treatment and are used in order. Each aligner is worn for two weeks and then they are thrown away. Once the old aligner is thrown away, a new aligner is put in place. This allows continued changes in the alignment of the teeth so they are made straighter. Most people can see results in as soon as a year while others will need treatment for a longer period of time.
When a person consults with the dentist, they can learn more about their options for invisible braces and learn if they are a good candidate. The dentist will plot their treatment and then have the dental lab create the aligners. They will also give the patient information on how long they can expect their treatment to last.
Those who are embarrassed about the alignment of their smile are urged to schedule an appointment with the dentist greeley co. With invisible aligners, you can have your teeth straightened beautifully so you can finally love your smile. Call today so you can schedule your appointment and get started on the process of straightening your teeth.

Many rocking chairs today are actually for double purpose that is used while nursing a baby or used as a place for a baby to sleep comfortably. Additionally, there are designs that would serve a newborn up to a specific toddler age.
The next point is to consider baby's safety. When you are mommy or daddy, you should not fail to wonder what baby furniture items are safe for you kid.

Getting advice online may or may not help, depending on the complexity of the problem. In many cases, however, it will be difficult for people to get a clear picture of the problem you're experiencing. It is for this reason it's advantageous to hire a plumber, as they physically come to your house to get a first-hand account of what is happening.
Doing it yourself can prove costly in the end If you go by your own judgment and you are not an expert in plumbing, it could all backfire on you, especially if it's a serious issue. Online advice, as well as advice given by friends, could possibly mislead you. Therefore, while you might believe you're saving on costs by not enlisting the help of a plumber, a poorly execute job can end up costing you a lot more. Time and time again, people have tried to resolve their plumbing problems. Some of them have indeed succeeded, but it's things have taken a turn for the worse for others.

If you therefore have some lingering doubts about handling a plumbing problem, at least speak to a qualified plumber first. You want to be in compliance with the local plumbing code When you don't know what you are doing, it's easy to find yourself violating your jurisdiction's plumbing laws. Since your home's plumbing system is part of a larger whole, you will want to avoid the risk of contaminating the water supply or doing some other damage. Professional plumbers know the plumbing code, and have a better understanding of the plumbing system. It is therefore critical that you consult an expert plumber before embarking on some significant work, such as renovating your home or adjusting the plumbing system itself.
How to Employ the Top Painting Company in Calgary Regardless of why you should have a painting job performed, choosing the best possible painting company is crucial. With the absolute amount of companies giving their services online and offline, it could be difficult to separate the trusted from the unreliable. We have some recommendations which could come in handy and might provide the aid you need to locate a painting contractor in Calgary that you could trust with just about almost any painting work needed by you. Generally, your first intuition could be to get the telephone directory and start finding names randomly or to do a quick Web search. The Internet selection is more effective as the space restrictions dealt with by those posting their numbers on yellow pages would not bind your normal painting specialist on the web. They would have significantly more room to describe their services, post photos of their work and record their charges. Phone book ads do not offer you much insight into a painting contractor's capabilities – often they only post their number, and that is it. Nevertheless the smartest choice would still be to search online and offline and consult guidelines from people you trust and know. You just may notice several typical recommendations offered, and of course if you do, you should undoubtedly include those names to your shortlisted candidates.
When you have listed some few organizations; you can start studying their sites. Again, you will want to test those photographs of artwork jobs that are accomplished and compare prices and services. It is also recommended to check for feedback in their guestbook.
Keep clear of "fine print" and continually be aware of hidden catches. If anything appears and sounds too good to be true, it most likely is too good to become true. When the site appears like the artist "mailed it in", then you might want to scratch the business involved from your listing. Unprofessional website design is often a warning of a business that is lazy. Aside from the website information, you must surely contemplate the time a painting company has been running. But to become more distinct, inquire about the length of time the contractor has been certified. Anyone and anybody could state to possess thirty years painting knowledge, but it's not going to do you much great, if they have simply been certified one year out of that thirty. Lastly, you should consider the purchase price you will be paying the painting company. While you should not get too excited over amazingly low costs, you must not have to overpay for any kind of painting accomplished in or around your home. Choosing the best painting company could ensure your household or building continues leaving an excellent effect to the public and stays in the best condition.

ISIS brides are being gifted suicide belts and machine guns in their wedding dowries, new paperwork reveals.
Newly uncovered documents in Libya tell how cash-strapped jihadis are offering their wives-to-be deadly bridal presents as a bizarre sign of their affection.
In one example, Tunisian Abu Mansour married a Nigerian called Miriam but instead of paying a dowry he vowed to pay compensation 'of one suicide belt' in the event of his death or the marriage being dissolved.
Forces allied with Libya's unity government found the documents as they searched buildings seized during a battle with the terror group in the coastal city of Sirte.
The papers belonged to the ISIS 'Judicial and Complaints' department and have now been published on the pro-government forces' Facebook pages.
Many reveal the bizarre marriage contracts and divorce rulings that have been drawn up.
Meanwhile jihadi bride, Fatima from Nigeria was promised a Kalashnikov assault rifle in the case of divorce or if her husband Malian Abu Said, was to die.
Last year, an ISIS marriage certificate was circulated among supporters of the extremist group after the bride included being allowed to carry out a suicide attack as a condition of marriage.
The document states that the woman should be allowed to go on a "martyrdom operation" should ISIS leaders approve her request. It stipulates the husband must not forbid her from undertaking such a mission, and is signed by both parties.
The document was first shared by Elijah Magnier, chief international correspondent for Al-Rai Media, who disclosed that the certificate was not the group officially allowing all 'jihadi brides' to commit suicide missions.

She & Him nicely outshine their records at The Mann, but with mixed results (photos, review, setlist)
By Noah Silvestry

American indie duo She & Him made a stop at Philadelphia's Mann Center for the Performing Arts as a part of their tour supporting their 4th studio album, Volume 3, released this past May. The unlikely duo of Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward was accompanied by a full live band, and performed not only songs from their 3 volumes of original music, but covers of a variety of artists including Frank Sinatra, Sonny West and Chuck Berry, as well as some of M. Ward's own music. The fusion of Deschanel's rich vocals and Ward's airy guitar embellishments come together rather nicely onstage, possibly even more so than on their recordings.
Notably off their new record, fans enjoyed tracks such as "I've Got Your Number, Son", "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me" (Mel Carter cover), "Never Wanted Your Love" and "I Could've Been Your Girl". These more recognizable tunes ("This is Not a Test" included) certainly made for the show's highlights, but the group struggled to sound quite as poised on their more obscure songs. This, in large part, explained the seeming trend of fans leaving not midway into their performance, diminishing an already small crowd.
Zooey Deschanel's songwriting combines well with a voice that is, at times, truly excellent, and M. Ward's knack for arranging and producing a song. It makes for an interesting pitch, but was ultimately a tough sell. The ability to captivate an audience was certainly there, yet fleeting, begging the question of whether or not She & Him can consistently deliver the results one would expect given their collective talent.
Joining She & Him was Scottish indie pop band, Camera Obscura who, in my book, stole the show. Not only was their mix better, but their sound was altogether tighter and more self-assured. Coincidentally, Camera Obscura has been produced by fellow Glaswegian Stuart Murdoch, a founding member of Belle & Sebastian, who you can catch performing at the Skyline Stage at The Mann this evening.

Home / Bank Overground / How large is the leveraged loan market?
We estimate that there is more than US$2.2 trillion in leveraged loans outstanding worldwide. This is larger than the most commonly cited estimate and comparable to US subprime before the crisis.
This analysis was presented to the FPC as part of their 2018 Q4 round.
Focus on leveraged lending as a potential source of financial stability risks has intensified recently.
But measuring the size of the leveraged loan market is complicated: there is no consistent definition of what a leveraged loan is.
The most commonly cited estimate of the market uses a figure of around US$1.3 trillion. This is the value of loans in indices that are used to track performance of the leveraged loan market. We think this underplays the true size of market. It only captures loans that are distributed to non-bank, institutional investors. And, within that, it mainly captures larger, more liquid loans.
When we account for smaller, less liquid loans, as well as lending facilities that are held by banks, the size of the market is more like US$2.2 trillion (Chart A). Around US$1.8 trillion of this is typically held by non-bank institutions.

See full footnotes in the Financial Stability Report, November 2018.
This makes the stock of leveraged loans in 2018 comparable to the stock of US subprime mortgages before the onset of the financial crisis, if measured relative to the size of the relevant credit market. But there are several reasons to think it is less risky (see Financial Stability Report, November 2018).
A large share of leveraged loans are sold to non-bank institutional investors. Around 45% of the stock of these are held through collateralised loan obligations (CLOs), and 30% by investment funds and insurance companies together. A sizable share of the market is unallocated because it is unclear who the end-investors are (Chart B). Banks also have significant exposures to the same borrowers via amortising loans and revolving credit facilities.
This post explores which investors are most exposed to CLOs.

Biggest problem I have is finding good pose reference atm.
True words that cover many more thing's than just what we do here. Thank you for the post.
If it is a joke, it's not very funny.
Movies, training videos, etc.. and screen capture.
I think of those as training excercises. I've never bought one myself, but I can understand their use. You can break it down and look at things like the lighting setup, the pose, the backgrounds and generally get a feel for how to achieve certain effects in Daz. That way you can reproduce similar results on your own later.
Of course, that doesn't mean I haven't seen countless copies of those ready to render scenes on DeviantArt with literally no alterations at all.
flipping BRILLIANT MattyManx!!! Thank you for that. The thing is, after fifteen years playing with 3D stuff, how come I feel like I STILL am somewhere in the middle of my first two?
There is never a point at which you stop learning. Even I have learned new things lately and am very glad I did. So no matter how long you have been doing it, just keep going at it.
Excellent post Mattymanx...definitely words to live by.
Back when those were first proposed I suggested a follow-on pdf or video tutorial - covering both how to see what was under the covers and how to 'make it your own' by experimenting with lights, poses, camera setup, and textures. Never went anywhere. Still think it would serve as a valuable introduction to 3D.
Very true, thanks for posting that.
I finally got around to viewing Dreamlight's DS4.5 FREE video tutorials in the DAZ store as I'm contemplating getting one of his Surfaces video tutorials. There are 11 DAZ Studio specific video tutorials and they are all currently FREE. He provides very clear tutorials on each subject. I highly recommend anyone new to DAZ Studio to get them.
I never saw them as ridiculous at all, though they're of little use to me.
So very true, Matty. A lot of skillful artists it seems like want to pretend like they just woke up one morning magically able to do exactly what they wanted, but achieving really good results takes time and effort!
It's so easy to get discouraged when your first results don't live up to your expectations. It's refreshing to see some advice like this once in a while to remind you to keep trying until you get better. :) Thanks!
I have to find a way to quit my day job (or at least find one closer to home so I don't spend 4 hours just getting to and from it) and still keep a roof over my head, the computers running, and content being downloaded.
As to learning being an ongoing process, I have learned more about music, music history and history in general since I left college, particularly in these days of the Net (and I'm not talking just dialing up Wikapedia). True, most of what is out there is commercial/political carp, conspiracy theories, and pr0n, but there's also good and helpful stuff as well. Heck, I used to work on search engine development in the old CD-ROM multimedia days (sheesh, that was two decades ago), so knowing how to structure and filter keywords/phrases to get the results I want the first time is kind of second nature.
For example, sites like the Blender Foundation have really helped me get a foothold on the powerful yet oft seen as cryptic modelling app. Without the tutorials on Tom's Hardware, I never would have built my own workstation (now I need to find where to go to learn how to configure WIn7 properly). Even lowly YouTube can be enriching if you make it so. 90% of my playlist is composed of incredible performances of music from Baroque to the modern era. Watching and listening to the performance of a Chopin ballade performed on a piano of his day rather than a modern grand piano or a Bach fuge on three century old mechanical action organ offers a unique perspective on the music and a greater appreciation of the composer's artistry.
The other 10% are tutorials, historical stuff, and the Nom Nom Kitty. This is not to say it cannot be a source of enjoyment as I do get a laugh from what I like to call "the stupid human tricks" vids (even those can have an "educational" effect if not at the very least making one feel a little better about one's self ).
...apologies for the ramble. In the end, I've been at this thing called 3D-CG for about 4 and a half years (which is nothing compared to some others here). I feel I've barely set a foot in the waters and still have a long way to go and not many years left to do it all in.
While I agree 100% with the message in the OP, there are times when certain limitations become so restrictive that continued growth and even interest can become stifled. To this I address advancement of the media which has pretty much exceeded the boundaries of the 32 bit platform. All the new features, better meshes, improved lighting systems, etc, have come at a cost in the need for greater processor power, GPU performance, and more memory. So there are those times when the tools do need a bit of an "upgrade" for one to move on with his/her visions.
It can be very frustrating when the vision in your head doesn't match your render.
I've been an artist of one kind or another my entire life.
So very true and most appropriate Matty! I am truly fortunate in that I chose a few very useful Usenet newsgroups (alt.binaries.3d.poser) and the 'Big 3' 3D sites forums. Particularly the DAZ forums for the high level of participation by a great mix of users. Folks in these places have been telling me all this for YEARS now. Each person in their own way saying the same in a way of encouragement. And even after nearing a decade, are still telling me this.
I have seriously debilitating health issues now that I didn't even know of back then. That does not dampen my desire to get up a DO things I want to do. It does not lessen my want, my NEED to express myself in some artistic way. Whether that be to grab up a guitar and pick out a melody, or to fire up the PC and slap a scene together and hit the MAKE ART! button a few times or to nab a Sharpie and scribble on my desk top; I WANT to express myself and have others SEE/HEAR/EXPERIENCE my 'art' themselves. I know that for me ART is *communicating* something. To someone. I know that IF someone else becomes aware of what I did, it WILL make a dent of some sort. That in itself is satisfying. IF someone that's aware of any of my stuff communicates something back to me about it, then I have been given a powerful gift. If I hear them and consider their input, I have the ability to grow and increase myself more than if they didn't respond.
To ALL of you who have responded to me over the years (and you are MANY!), thank you so much for your gifts!!!
I've now printed this off as a gentle reminder for when I become overly disappointed with my own results.
Sometimes the gap between desire (what's in my head) and outcome (what my skills can achieve) seems impossibly big. If you want to realise your desires then the only way to close the gap is to increase the skill. Lowering the desire doesn't work for me.
Talent is born with you but skill grows. I think talent is the seed from which the skill grows. Desire is the sunlight, perseverance is the soil, effort is the rain,questions are the roots and experience is the fruit.
It's true one never stops learning and that is true when applied to everything and everyone. Most of what I have learned has been through sites like Daz and forums sites like PFDLives, If not for the support of such sites, I probably would have given up. I have learned you don't need a lot of money to do what you love. That is not true just for Graphic Art, but for anything in life. There have been ups and downs along the way, but I keep plugging along, learning more as I do so. MattyManx, you did something very few others do..You actually said what needed to be said. Most will think it, feel it, argue against it, but rarely will they actually say it. Bravo to you.
Hard to remember in these days of instant gratification and nows it does seem.
We live in a very unrealistic world.
But the things that matter still play by the timeless rules.
While I have seen the message before (can't remember where), it is quite inspirational and does help to keep going. I started doing products in 2009 and even though I've been fortunate enough to become a PA here, I can tell you I'm no where near where I want or plan to be. I have literally thousands of projects that started to be worked on then dropped out of either frustration because I couldn't get it the way I wanted, or I wasn't far enough along in this journey to be able to complete them. It can be extremely frustrating when you're doing something and no matter what you do, it just doesn't look right and it's the same feeling no matter if you are creating art or making content. However, once you start to break down those barriers, it can be one of the most rewarding experiences. It won't come all at once (usually), but once you see that you are making progress, the frustrations usually go down accordingly.
Rofl Matty, that hit the nail on the proverbial head.
When I first read this I was crushed. It will take YEARS before I will be any good! I know DAZ is a complicated program with a steep learning curve but YEARS.
Then after I thought about it it gave me HOPE instead. I was starting to get frustrated because I did not seem to be making much progress. (The fact that I have not been using the program for very long is totally irrelevant :roll: ) There is a chance that with hard work and perseverance I may get better. That is good enough for me.
And if you can't have good taste, try to have friends and family who do while you develop some.
When you are learning a new skill, often it seems that nothing makes sense. Then suddenly all fall into place and you start controlling it rather than it controlling you.

Vivek Oberoi on Inside Edge: Show's success leaves me vindicated
Updated: Dec 08, 2019, 07:24 IST | Sonil Dedhia | Mumbai
Having seen many highs and lows in his career, Vivek Oberoi believes recent release Inside Edge has turned the tide for him
A still from Inside Edge 2
Vivek Oberoi decided to foray into digital entertainment with Amazon Prime's Inside Edge, well before the country witnessed the OTT boom. As the second season dropped over the weekend, the actor wears a look of content, secure in the knowledge that the gamble has paid him rich rewards. "People felt I had lost the plot. They weren't aware [of the potential of] OTT content and wondered why I was doing a serial. Also, with the show, we were swimming against the tide as everyone in this country loves cricket and we were showing the murky side of the game. So it was a tough call," says Oberoi, who plays mastermind Vikrant Dhawan who runs a successful cricket league, in the show.
In a 17-year-long run in the industry, the actor has seen it all—from overnight success to abject failure. The success of the Karan Anshuman-created show, he says, has once again turned the tide. "People had written me off often, but when the audience loves me in Inside Edge, it gives me a sense of validation and vindication. It has allowed me to pick and choose from the offers [coming my way]. It hasn't been an easy journey as I have had to start all over again, several times, but I have never given up."
On the big screen, Oberoi was last seen in PM Narenda Modi, a biopic that received attention and flak in equal measure for its subject. A self-admitted Modi bhakt, the actor is proud of the film. Ask him if a sequel is on the cards, and he says, "It was an incredible journey to play this amazing persona. The audience's feedback has been positive. Any actor would give their right arm to play the character. We have not even scratched the surface. The legacy of Narendra Modi by the end of his term is going to be unparalleled, so never say never."
