She is not only entrepreneur, beautiful and talented – she is also working as a model: Stephanie Burkhalter handled turning herself into a label. Born in Geneva she moved to New York City and established Burkhalter Couture with a fantastic collection of expressive shoes and dresses. Sugarpop interviewed the French, Italian and English speaking woman with two passions: fashion and traveling.
Stephanie – you’re Model, Fashion Art Director of your own blog and Owner of your company Burkhalter Couture. Sounds like lots of work. How do you handle all these tasks?
I handle everything with passion. As fashion is my passion, nothing is never enough for me.
Why did you decide to found your own business? Did you have a turning point that made you do this?
I have always been in the fashion industry since I am a child, first as a model (I did my first big commercial when I was 6). At some point, as i’ve always been a very creative person, I decided to study fashion design in Milan, attending the Marangoni Institute. After some working experiences, I started my own brand in order to express myself through the maximum of creativity I carry each day with me.
Your clothes and accessories are legendary. Where do you take your inspirations from?
I get inspired by the connection between people and the space they are related. I trust my instinct and based on this, I start giving life to my emotions. Burkhalter Couture is uniqueness. It is the reflection of the energies I am surrounded, therefore my brand doesn’t have only one direction.
Describe your new collection in three words.
Spring/Summer 2014 is a reflection of Central America. It reveals me a palette of colors that I have never consider before through its fabulous Caribbean’s landscapes. Fresh silks meet floreals prints. Particular high heels ready to rock the Rio’s Carnival.
In 5 years, I see myself having a solid distribution in the high fashion market. In order to reach this goal, I focus my work to conquer the prestige of the critics and the most important market, the one of New York City.
And your childhood? What influence did your childhood have on your dreams and plans?
I was born and raised in Geneva until the age of 18. Indeed I began travelling at this age as I started my international carrier as a model. I was a very expressive, positive and creative child, living in my own world. As only daughter, I spent a lot of time by myself. Painting and drawing were the tools I used to fulfill the need I had to express and give life to my internal world.
What is one thing you ‘must’ accomplish before you die?
Her photos are stunning she is really talented!
fabulous interview and gorgeous fashion!
Was für eine interessante Frau! Ich kannte sie ehrlich gesagt gar nicht, aber ihre Ready-To-Wear Kollektion ist der Hammer! Danke für dieses tolle Interview :).
What an interesting interview babe! Good job!
Great interview, what an amazing lady!
I love her personality !!
She is a great woman! Great post dear.
Lovely article! Thanks for sharing!
What a great post Stella, I love reading interviews like this, getting to know what inspires successful and passionate people.
I think in a way, her style is a reflection of her passion.
wow!♥ awesome interview! I love her style!
Love her stuff! How exciting!
Great interview thanks so much for sharing!!!
I loved the interview so much, and aspire to one day travel the world myself. I am a dreamer! I know they can come true somehow.

In March 2016 the Government published their National Infrastructure Delivery Plan, bringing together the government's plans for economic infrastructure over the next 5 years with those to support delivery of housing and social infrastructure. The NIDP is underpinned by the National Infrastructure Pipeline which showed the size and status of planned public and private investment worth over £480 billion to the end of the decade and beyond, including over £390 billion to 2020-21. It is anticipated that around 50% of the infrastructure pipeline to 2020-2021 will be financed and delivered by the private sector.

As new warming shelters open in Spokane, city police have given notice that campers in front of city hall must leave.
As new warming shelters open in Spokane, city police have given campers in front of city hall notice to leave.
After 48 hours, police have the authority to enforce the order and make campers pack up.
City spokeswoman Marlene Feist says the police department posted notice of the city’s intent to enforce the Protecting Public Lands ordinance, which prohibits camping on public property.
The ordinance is different than the sit-lie ordinance, which prohibits people from sleeping on sidewalks and in doorways between 6 a.m. and midnight. That ordinance is still suspended until the city creates 200 new shelter spaces.
Homeless residents have been camping out in front of city hall for weeks to protest the lack of adequate shelter space in Spokane. In late November, demonstrators set up about two dozen tents in front of city hall.
In response, the city approved more beds for homeless residents.
Feist said the city will open an additional 60 beds on Friday at Salem Lutheran Church in the West Central Neighborhood. The city opened 40 beds at a warming center on West Cannon.
The city also approved additional warming center contracts at Open Doors and Women’s Hearth and Hope House, Feist said.

Early in the second half, a video review led to a penalty kick for Portugal when Saeid Ezatolahi was judged to have fouled Ronaldo.
In the course of those two matches, both of which ended in draws that allowed Spain and Portugal to advance to the knockout stages, VAR was used to award three penalties that were not called on the field and to award a goal that had been disallowed by an offside call.
"You do not prepare for a game against one player but against a team", added Coates.
More penalties have been awarded at the 2018 Fifa World Cup than at any previous event.
Ronaldo will be hoping to continue his scoring streak in Russian Federation with his new Mercurial Superfly 360 boots as he bids to win the golden boot and World Cup.
The Portugal players are fully aware of the threat Uruguay carry and seemed focused as they begun their preparations for Saturday's clash. Pique's tackle wasn't even reviewed; Ronaldo's elbow was, but the offence was deemed only worthy of a yellow card by a referee who was clearly sweating buckets, literally and otherwise.
I don't know how many times I have seen that 2 seconds when Beiranvand saved Iran's net; It looked like the Iranian keeper wanted to live inside that moment where he saved a penalty from Ronaldo for as long as humanly possible and I don't blame him; "when I saved that penalty, I did not understand anything".
"I waited until the last second to stop that penalty and I feel our hard work could have earned us a spot among the last 16 in Russian Federation", he said.
Going back to the story about my daughter yesterday, I need to know if I am a grandfather or not. The rules don't say if it is Messi or Ronaldo it's a little bit. So the question it is for me, as I said before, it is not about the refs, it's about the attitude and the bravery and the character.
"Players make mistakes, coaches make mistakes and referees make mistakes", Queiroz said. I am not in a good mood, as you can see.

How Do You Spell Wi-Fi?
So many new vocabulary words in our language! The one I’ve seen spelled many different ways is Wi Fi. I’ve also seen Wifi, Wi-Fi, and wifi. Which is it? Spell check on Word tells me Wi-Fi (it’s on spell check already?) Or maybe it doesn’t matter. My head is spinning!
As an author you always want to spell correctly. Readers notice misspellings and other grammatical errors which can interfere with their reading. Editors are always on the lookout, but some spellings can even slip by them.
With all these new words, it’s sometimes hard to find the correct way to spell them. One of them is apps. Should the word be capitalized? Google is always capital, right? So if I use it in a story, I have to say–He Googled it?
Tweeting and trending, hash tag and instagram are already part of our everyday vocabulary. They even made their way into the nightly news.
Who would have thought just a few years ago these words would be part of our daily lives. I try to keep up. I really do. I may even use some of them in my stories. But please, make up your mind on the spellings!
It seems to be the way of the future. New words, multiple spellings. Maybe spelling won’t matter anymore. I hope not. I’m still old school that way.
Free. We tend to see that word more and more these days in the book world. Self-published authors offer up their books for free in order to capture attention. I subscribe to Book Bub and they send me a daily list of free to low cost books. The books can be from top selling authors to self-published.
How does an author make a living on their books? I don’t think they can anymore with all the choices out there. Maybe the top 1% can, but not the rest of us. But the reason we write is not to make money. The story just has to get out there. The ideas are swirling in our heads. The characters are pounding on the door begging to get out.
Today I have the privilege of releasing a free short story. I love my publisher. She had the confidence in my series to create a cover, format the story and get it out there for free.
I never thought I’d be so excited about giving something away for free. But here is the link for “Taking Chances”, a short story from the Waiting for Dusk series. You didn’t have to read the series to enjoy the story. The POV is from my male main character, Andrew. The reader will follow his day, the day he met the love of his life, Kate. Enjoy!
Today I would like to welcome Sue Gesing, aka Read Around Sue. Authors depend on reviews and are grateful to those people who love to read so much they create a blog! After having a summer of author tips, I thought readers would appreciate a look at books from the other side. Read on for my Q&A with Read Around Sue.
I’m a retired kindergarten teacher who has loved to read her entire life. I have two grown children and a husband who support me in all my endeavors. My latest is a cupcake company.
How many books can you read in a week?
It depends. Sometimes if I am swamped I can read four or five. I don’t like to do that though as I like to read as carefully as I can. I’ve always been a speedy reader!
I knew a lot of independent and small publisher authors need all the support they can get so I decided to go for it and lend them a hand.
I concentrate mostly on YA and NA but I’ll read anything if it captures my interest.
Will you review every book sent to you? If not, what won’t you read?
No, I won’t read every book that is sent my way. I never do horror or erotica, they are just not for me.
Did you always like to read? Favorite book as a child. As an adult.
You bet I have always loved to read! My favorite as a kid was the Mrs. Piggle Wiggle Series by Betty MacDonald. I don’t have a favorite book as an adult because I enjoy too many of them. If I was forced to pick, I couldn’t do it!
Do you prefer print books or eReader?
Both are fine by me.
When you review a book, do typographical errors bother you? Would it affect your review?
Oh, you just caught my pet peeve. I hate typos and misused language like their for there. I don’t let it affect my review unless I know the author was the editor and no one else. Then I feel I have to speak up. Some books I’ve read have been spoiled by too many errors.
I like the fact you will only give three stars or above to books you review. Sometimes you just can’t do that. How do you let an author know you won’t be reading their book after accepting it?
Well, that’s not an easy question. I am sensitive to the fact that an author works hard and loves their book with a passion. I usually just say, I’m sorry your book is not for me. That’s about the kindest way I can think of to do it.
Do you take genre into consideration? Let’s say, it wasn’t for you, but was a good book.
I don’t really take genre into consideration unless it is in horror or erotica which I don’t read. If a book wasn’t for me but was well written I would give it the review I felt it deserved and try to put my personal feelings aside.
Can authors directly contact you or do they have to use a blog tour?
What services do you provide authors?
We can work out just about anything. I have done giveaways, interviews, character interviews and guest blogs.
And finally, did you ever write a book or want to be an author?
Yes, I wrote a book. It is not for publication but I learned a lot doing it. My dreams of being an author are over and I’m happy to be a reviewer.
Thanks, Nancy for having me today. I enjoyed answering your questions. I am open for submissions at http://readaroundsue.blogspot.com/ if any of your readers are interested. Again, thanks for the opportunity to share my thoughts.
Refresh your skills! Think you remember what you learned in grade school? High school? Think again. Does a comma need to be placed before “and” or “but”? Quotation marks or Italics for songs, names, titles?
One of the first things I realized after writing my first book, I wasn’t a good editor. I set out to fix that problem right away.
I know Word is very good at recognizing spelling errors, incomplete sentences and capitals. If you use a homonym (similar words like too, to, two) it won’t pick up on those mistakes. Only rely on Word as your first line of defense.
Use names sparingly when characters speak to each other. I learned that from my publisher. Think of how you talk. Do you repeat your friend’s name over and over again? Read your dialogue aloud. Does the wording sound realistic?
After trying it, I liked it much better. That was my original sentence.
After experimenting with a few sentences, I liked the new statement much better. This new sentence took away any question of what I was trying to say.
My last word of advice is to wait a few weeks after finishing a new manuscript. Look at the words with a fresh eye. If you begin to reread as soon as you finish, you’re too close to the story. You’ll miss mistakes.
Remember, you are the alpha reader of your story. You should enlist beta readers after you feel you’ve done your best. You don’t have to hire someone. There are groups who exchange services, family members and friends may volunteer. Be open to constructive criticism because in the end, you want your book to be error free and ready to be released to the world.
Summer Writing Series: Ready, Set, Go!
Today my guest author is Val Clarizio. I’m always happy to find out another author knows the beginning and end of their novel, but the story will evolve as they begin to write. Also those challenging blurbs and creating a title get to me, too! Can I borrow that friend, Val? Read on to find out how Val’s writing process works.
Where do I Begin and how do I get to the Finish Line?
Usually, what happens to get me started is I have some sort of bizarre dream with a crazy scenario for my characters to endure. After I bounce the main idea around in my head a bit I simply start typing. I know how I’m going to start, and most times I have a clear idea about how I’m going to end the story, but getting from point ‘A’ to point ‘B’ is a mystery for me until my fingers hit the keyboard. It’s then, my characters come to life and tell me how it’s going to be. Sometimes my characters are quiet and mellow about it, and other times they yell at me in the middle of the night, wanting to be heard. I love when they yell, my fingers can’t move fast enough on the keyboard to suit their needs, and I get a lot accomplished on those days. Unfortunately, when my characters are quiet, I may have to step away from the project for a bit, but they always tend to come back around to help me complete the book.
After two published novellas and two published books, I can honestly say that writing the story is the easy part, it’s naming the books and writing the blurbs that I can’t seem to handle. That said, I call on my friends and beta readers to help me out. We spend days emailing back and forth trying to hone in on a name. As for the blurb, I usually write one that includes all the points I want to make and then a good friend of mine pares it down for me. She can write blurbs but not books, and I can write books but not blurbs. We’re quite the duo.
Now that everything is in order I have to go through the terrifying process of querying my publishers to see if any of them will contract for the book. Will I get the dreaded rejection letter or will I find myself doing the happy dance? In the event of the happy dance, a new phase of work begins….Edits, cover, and promo! In the meantime, my fingers are itching to hit the keyboard to start the next project. As a whole, writing is a never ending process, and I absolutely love it.

Perhaps the most perplexing and controversial problem facing heavily used indoor pools today is chloramine production. Chloramines cause obnoxious odors as well as skin, eye, and respiratory irritation that many swimmers mistakenly attribute to chlorine itself. When chloramine levels become troublesome (0.3-0.5 parts per million (ppm)), people begin to complain. And while much finger pointing takes place, often little progress is made in correcting the problem. Swim coaches and competitive swimmers blame the pool operators, while pool operators in turn blame the swimmers; pool chemists blame the ventilation systems, whereas those in charge of air handling blame the water chemistry.
But who truly is to blame? And how is the problem fixed? In reality, everyone is to blame when chloramines are produced, and everyone has a role in controlling them. While a heavily used pool may never be completely chloramine free, you can greatly reduce chloramine production through good pool management practices.
Chronic chloramines and the associated smell and irritation are caused by a variety of factors. Despite what many swimmers assume, the major cause of these problems is too little free chlorine rather than too much! "Free" chlorine, used to kill germs and help prevent the spread of waterborne illnesses, also oxidizes natural waste products from swimmers, including sweat, body oil, urine and other ammonia-nitrogen compounds. If the free chlorine levels are not sufficiently high to oxidize these nitrogenous wastes, the free chlorine combines with them to form noxious cholarmine compounds. Whenever someone calls me with a chloramine problem, the first thing I tell him or her is that once they shock their pool (shock treatment will be discussed below) they should maintain a free residual of 0.5ppm higher than usual. This higher level of chlorine usually does the trick.
Another remedy that is rarely used but very effective is to enforce soap showers prior to swimming. A soap shower will remove excess body oils and sweat, thus greatly reducing the amount of body waste going into the pool. Some pool chemists claim that if everyone showered prior to swimming, it would reduce the chlorine demand by 50%. So perhaps you could get your swimmers to shower if you told them to shower, not because they are dirty but rather because their body oils react with chlorine to produce the smell they hate. Along those lines, competitive swimmers produce a great deal of sweat when they train rigorously. There is absolutely no way to avoid this, so you must plan on combating the perspiration that they will normally and regularly produce.
Even with the cleanest swimmers and the best water chemistry, though, chloramines can be a problem. If you have an energy efficient air handling system that re-circulates the air, often the chloramines are re-circulated and trapped in the building because they cannot escape. Air handling systems must bring in lots of fresh air and exhaust full blast when the pool is busy. If this is not done, chloramines will keep building. If the air handling system does not significantly exceed existing ASHRAE standards, then a heavily used pool will probably have an air quality problem.
Ever notice how you don't notice chloramine odors at an outdoor pool? As they say, "No harm, no foul."
"Shock" more often with free chlorine. Shock treatment involves raising the free chlorine level to at least 10 times higher than the combined chlorine level. Weekly is best for most pools but it may be required even more often for extremely heavily used pools.
Use a non-chlorine shocking agent like the monopersulfate-based oxidizers. These reduce chloramines without adding chlorine. Many pool operators find alternating between traditional chlorine and the non-chlorine shocking agents works best.
Add volcanic ash to your sand filters. This holds the ammonia in the filter tanks rather than in the swimming pools. Zeolite works well but must be regenerated to be effective in the long run.
Granulated Activated Carbon (GAC) filters may also be added to your existing filtration/circulation systems to remove ammonia that produces chloramines in the pool water.
Anticipate heavy bather loads. When you know your swimming pool is going to be inundated with swimmers either by way of a swim meet, swimming lessons or a huge rental or party, take preventive action prior to the swimmers arrival.
Shock the pool and keep the free chlorine levels up extra high before the swimmers enter the pool. Insist that the group shower before entering. These preventive measures will do wonders in keeping chloramines formation to a minimum.
If you have a good clean source of fresh water, give your filters and extended backwash so that you drain off lots of water (up to 1/3 of your pool volume) and replace it with fresh water.
Vacuuming and brushing your pool daily also removes much of the dirt chlorine reacts with that your filters have not caught yet.
A word of caution -- Many water companies are using chloramines to disinfect the water they supply their customers. If your source water is disinfected with chloramines, as many are, you have an uphill battle on your hands. The facility may need to strip the chloramines with a GAC filter as the water enters the building and before it enters the swimming pool.
Finally, most of the "ideal" ranges recommended for chlorine in public swimming pools are simply too low and just plain wrong. Heavily used pools often need 3.0 - 4.0 PPM in order to prevent chloramines. Try running yours higher for six months. You'll be glad you did.

Generally you simply cannot print unreleased PO. But for example someone may print from print preview, or from the PDF file if you have PDF output.
To overcome this we have codified the form in such a way that an unreleased PO is always printed with title 'Draft Purchase Order'.
The reason, why you can't print an 'un-released' PO might be, that an entry into table NAST (Messages) is only written, once the PO is released.
And I also agree with previous posts.
If the PO isn't released you normally shouldn't want to output it. What if the approver rejects and you already sent the PO to the vendor??

One of the great things about being on residency is the creative freedom you have to pursue new work. A shortage of ideas isn’t a problem for me (for the moment anyway) but the time and space to experiment can be. This is why the artist space within Paper Gallery is so valuable. Its an informal set-up and I can access the studio whenever I need to, yet they can and will provide some mentoring and advice in order to develop your work further. So its a fantastic way of them getting to know you.
I often work better when I have a large mood-board in front of me, this helps me to combine and select different aspects of my practise and try out new ideas. This time its taken the form of an ongoing mural, one which is continually changing depending on what part of my idea needs to be addressed. Overall the mural represents one of the shifting dynamics between urban and non-urban spaces. The city of Manchester vs. its surrounding rural counterparts = with a constant focus on nature and the landscape.
For instance the stag’s head is an urban product of a nature, commodifying its values into plastic and wood effect. Magazine collage also feature in the floating cityscape with its long, narrow cut-outs of fashion and perfume advertising just like our man-made advertising billboards. Symbolising consumerism, yet subversive elements of nature come creeping up on it as it weathers due to the natural elements (which is one thing even we can’t hold back).
A recent helicopter trip around Manchester provides the influence behind this. Nothing surprised me more than to see the Manchester metropolis rising up in the distance, yet surrounded by dark grey motorway networks and miles upon miles of farmland as far as the eye can see. Our landscape is both obscured and beautiful at the same time.

The idea of starting a business from home sounds tempting when you have small children. The truth is, there’s a lot that goes into building a brand.
I started Motherhood Through My Eyes in 2013 without thinking how much work it was going to be. I knew there was going to be a laundry list of things I needed to do while managing a household and starting a business.
Fortunately, I had full support from my husband and he’s been my number one fan since day one.
One thing I tell other moms looking to start their own business from home is to think of their Why and to write down their Goals.
It might sound odd since the answer is typicallyto make an income while being home with the kids, but there’s more to starting a business than making money.
Having a set of goals will help you better understand what you’re working towards and you’ll have your reason on what you’ll need to invest.
For some, the word investment is scary. You automatically think about dollar signs. Although it can be, there’s something else you’ll need to consider — investing your time.
Whenever people ask about my secret to success, I tell them the truth: I invested time when I didn’t have the money, and money when I didn’t have the time.
Regardless of what you decide to spend, it can get expensive. One thing I remind clients is that you can always make back the money you’ve invested. You’ll never get back the time you put into it — use it wisely.
You often hear from other entrepreneurs that you shouldn’t quit your day job, and I couldn’t agree more. It’s all about doing what you need to do to get where you want to be.
Remember the idea of investing money where you don’t have the time and vice versa? That day job comes in handy.
To create something from scratch, you will need to find time. In some instances, it might feel as though you don’t have the time to work on achieving your goals. That’s where outsourcing comes in.
You’d be surprised how many businesses have started from needing services. Just think about Uber and AirBnB. Both companies provide a service to others who need access to transportation and temporary stays.
Creating a schedule is a great way to find time in your day to accomplish tasks that help you reach your goals. I shared some thoughts on doing so here.
1) Share your opinion onSurvey Junkie: By simply sharing my thoughts on everyday topics, I earned $10 after answering 20 surveys.
If you’re in the marketing/advertising industry like me, then it will be tough for you to qualify for the points. Fortunately, Survey Junkie gives you three points for at least trying the survey.
2) Shop withSwagbucks: If you have a couple of gift cards you’d like to make use out of, then I suggest signing up for Swagbucks.
Unlike Survey Junkie, you’re not only answering questions, but you also get deals from your favorite stores and can check out deals from new ones. Simply download the Swagbucks button on your laptop/desktop for access to deals for online purchases. There’s also the option to watch advertisements to get more points.
3) Offer your services on Facebook: Social media is a great way to connect with family and friends, but did you know it’s also one of the quickest ways to reach out to locals as well?
Facebook Marketplace and Facebook Groups are perfect for engaging with people in your area. One of my side businesses is offering marketing services to local bloggers. It’s helped me fund my own hustle and it even pays for our monthly pizza and ice cream trips.
Have you tried any of the options above? Tell me about your experience in a comment below!
Hope you get a chance to try these options out. I typically do the surveys on the weekends.
Finding time sure is a challenge but a good organization system always helps. I use Trello to keep me organized!
Having an organized system does help. I’m always revamping my schedule to fit everything that comes my way.
I enjoy finding ways to make money with my phone. I’m always looking for new ideas and tips. Swagbucks has been amazing over the years! I also like earning gift cards by playing mobile games.
Yes! That’s one of the options they have as well. Glad it’s been working for you as well!
Wow, Facebook marketplace is a place I’ve never considered! GREAT advice!
Good ideas. Do you earn much cash from any of them?
I am going to try out Swagbucks. Looks like it is a good way to make some extra bucks. Thanks for sharing.
These are some really great options to make a little extra money in your free time. I know that we all have that time where we are mindlessly on our phone anyways.
A lot of people have Smart phones nowadays. I can see the potential in this! These are some great opportunities to earn some money.
I think it’s so cool that there are so many options to work from home now. Thanks for listing some of them here.
I never knew these were ways to make money! I would give these a chance, and would recommend these to others.
This is pretty cool and they are all pretty stress-free ways to make money while using your phone and they won’t take up ALL of your time either! Cool post!
These are really great ways to earn a little side cash. I never heard of these places before but it’s a great idea!
People have no idea how much money you can make online its insane. Thank you so much for this post very informative.
This is so great! Always looking for another hustle to make some extra cash!
I do have an online business where I sell sweets and chocolate lollipops and Social Media definitely helps a lot to connect with costumers and to promote your product. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for these tips. If you can find a way to earn money from home, why not do so?
I love finding new options to support myself financially. I mean A little extra is always welcome, right?
There are always ways to make money online. You gave great resources on how to do this so thank you!

Difficult to make cash online and at home. Your tips are so good. Hope I can follow them.

Boeing opens first European manufacturing site – Sheffield, U.K.
Boeing has opened its first component factory in Europe, at Sheffield in the U.K. The premises will be used for the manufacture of actuation system components for the Boeing 737 and 767 jets from raw materials sourced in the U.K. Parts by the thousand will be produced each month, then shipped to Boeing’s Portland, Oregon facilities back in the U.S. Actuation systems move the flaps at the back of the wing to provide extra lift at low speeds during takeoff and landing.
Sheffield will be responsible for manufacturing over 100 different high-tech actuation components of the 737 and 767 wing trailing edge, Boeing having invested some £40 million (US$51.2 million) in the 62,000-square-meter facility. There is a total of 52 employees, including experienced mechanics, engineers and more than 20 apprentices working in the current Boeing Sheffield team.
Greg Clark, U.K. Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy said: “Boeing choosing the heart of South Yorkshire as its first European home is testament to our capabilities, talent pool and strong manufacturing supply chains which are vital to job creation and creating value for local economies.

Lufthansa Technik Malta is officially ready to perform all work required for the Base Maintenance of the Airbus A350-900, as the company has been licensed by the German Federal Aviation Office (LBA).
The granting of the "Base Maintenance Approval" certificate by the LBA marks the successful end of an intense period of preparation, in which employees were trained, processes were established and infrastructure was adapted.
Lufthansa Technik Malta kicked off this extensive program in November 2016. The first Airbus A350 is expected to arrive for base maintenance services at Lufthansa Technik Malta in spring 2019.
Lufthansa Technik's CEO Marcus Motschenbacher said: "More than 50 employees of Lufthansa Technik Malta spent just over three months in personal preparation acquiring the necessary qualifications and practical training to enable them to work on the A350. Two out of six base maintenance lines at the facility have been outfitted to accommodate the A350-900 with an investment of over €3.2 million to cover the first C-Checks. A substantial investment in new tooling has included the purchase of more than 280 different tools including engine removal tooling."

Norwegian (NAS) has reported a result (EBT) of 1.6 billion NOK (£149 million) for the third quarter 2018. The company continued to reduce its unit costs despite a capacity growth of 33%. Going forward, the growth will abate, consequently further reducing unit cost.
The net profit for the third quarter was 1.3 billion NOK (£121 million), an improvement of 18% compared to the same quarter last year. The company's unit costs excluding fuel have decreased by 10% this quarter. The total revenue increased by 33% to 13.4 billion NOK (£1.2 billion). In total, approximately 11 million passengers chose to travel with Norwegian in the third quarter - an increase of 11%. The load factor remained high at 90.5% compared to 91.7% last year.
Norwegian has made significant investments in recent years, with the establishment of new bases internationally and in new markets; recruitment of several thousand employees - primarily pilots and cabin crew - the launch of many new routes and increase of frequencies on well-established routes. The strong international footprint has for instance contributed to the United States now representing the largest market after Norway in terms of total revenue.
HAECO Hong Kong, a member of the HAECO Group, has introduced the ENVISION® nGen maintenance information system – a web-based digital platform developed by global aviation software solutions company Rusada – to support its engine maintenance operations.

I have been a bit lazy the last few nights, Ollie is racing in the Rolex China Sea Race to the Philippines and I always prefer cooking when there is someone else to cook for. So I seem to be making mostly snacks and eggs for my dinner... Sweet potato wedges are so tasty and so easy to make they are perfect healthy snack or great served beside grilled chicken or a homemade burger if your not being lazy.
Peel sweet potatoes and slice into around 8-12 wedges depending on the size of the potato.
In a bowl, mix potato wedges, olive oil, salt, pepper and rosemary together.
On a non stick baking tray or a tray lined with baking paper evenly spread the wedges out so they are not touching.
Bake wedges in oven, flip wedges half way through cooking.
Remove wedges from oven and place in a paper towel lined bowl and sprinkle with sea salt.
Serve with yogurt dip or ketchup.
Mix all ingredients together and serve in small dish beside wedges.

It was a loose connection to begin with, but our friendship was officially terminated when she determined that when I posted photos of food and meals on Facebook it was with the intention of making her feel bad. I tried to explain that all of us feel weird sometimes when we view other people’s lives online—I tried to tell her that when I saw photos of her out to dinner with friends and sisters I cried because at that time I was painfully lonely. But that was that, and with a few clicks of the keyboard I was cut off. For good.

On Tuesday August 30, 2016 the GSBC Spirits held its initial Mentoring Session with the focus on getting prepared for the opening of school. Coordinator of Instruction, Sinclair Harris, engaged student-athletes in a dialogue about how sports and academics tie together and discussed strategies that students and parents can implement in order to ensure high levels of academic achievement.
As the mentoring program monitors student academic progress, students will be required to submit their interim reports (progress reports) and their report cards (end of nine week grades). Those students showing progress and high levels of academic achievement will receive incentives.
In an effort to support schools' PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports) systems, student behavior is also monitored through weekly correspondences with student-athletes' teachers and administrators and recorded in Class Dojo. Students maintaining positive behavior over a weekly period will also be recognized!

We consult with charitable organizations, foundations, corporations, government agencies, and philanthropists worldwide.
You need sufficient financial resources to achieve your vision. This requires knowing how to raise funds in a sustainable way, and how to do it really well. What has worked to bring in dollars in the past may not work now. Success demands that your fund development efforts be highly sophisticated and focused.
In this fast-track, solutions-driven society, you want swiftly realized, tangible results that make an impact on our communities. These come through having a clear and motivating vision, strong values and the right people around the board table – people with the capacity to think strategically, to set direction, determine acceptable risk and ensure success.
It’s easy for organizations to fall into a state of stasis as teams become comfortable with one another and their tasks. The loss of key players is often feared. But, executive or board searches provide a unique opportunity to grow organizations in exciting new directions. Every individual brings something special to the table. You just need to know what special skills, experience and characteristics your organization needs at this point in time to take it to new heights.
Public relations is “the art of the dialog” – a conversation that takes place between you and the diverse stakeholders required to help your organization maintain current support and spearhead future initiatives. It is the means by which your organization promotes its core values, interacts with the community, involves prominent leaders and bolsters fund raising campaigns.
The most effective leaders recognize that making decisions without sufficient information is like participating in a prize-fight with one hand tied behind your back. Research provides the necessary evidence upon which to base recommendations for change. It gives CEOs and Directors confidence to move forward. It unties that second hand.
Public and private grants may be available to your organization to help you achieve your mission. What must you do to maximize your chances of competing successfully in this arena? It starts with deep research regarding where you should apply, creating a grant application that meets all criteria and stands out, managing the grant and using it for the purposes intended, and reporting back on time and with transparency.
Many believe they can "make do" during the search for a new leader by dividing up the ED duties among existing staff or putting a board member in the position. But most organizations are already stretched in these competitive times. Keeping your team at its most productive should be at the top of your list. An interim ED can provide the leadership you require to navigate the transition.
Coaching is popular today because it works! It helps your leadership build confidence and skills. It helps them look at situations differently and generate new approaches. Whether you wish to help your ED/CEO grow in his or her position, or further engage your entire board, coaching is a cost-effective tool.
Not only is it becoming more difficult to find corporations that will buy a “bronze,” “silver,” or “gold” package to support an event today, it’s counter-productive for both parties. We need to be building mutually beneficial partnerships that can run for years.
We partner with you to do what's necessary to achieve your goals.
You will always get our full attention.
Together we align the right business model with the right resources to achieve the right outcomes, giving you the confidence to lead the change you and your community deserve.

Abstract: In this thesis, the thermal and photo-induced oxidation reaction on silicon and copper surfaces were studied by using various experimental and theoretical technologies, including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. O2 and CO2 are selected as the probe to adsorb onto the clean silicon surfaces, acetylene modified silicon surfaces and clean copper surfaces, and the results demonstrate that there will be different oxidation reactions on surfaces with thermal or photon activations.

Principal photography will begin Monday, July 15th on the horror-comedy, Cooties starring Elijah Wood, Alison Pill and Rainn Wilson. The film also stars Jack McBrayer, Jorge Garcia, Nasim Pedrad and Leigh Whannell. The commercial-directing duo, Honest (Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion) make their feature-film directorial debut from a screenplay by Leigh Whannell and Ian Brennan. In addition to starring in the film, Elijah Wood also serves as producer with his SpectreVision partners, Daniel Noah and Josh C. Waller. Steven Schneider also produces, as well as Tove Christensen and Georgy Malkov of Glacier Films, who are financing the feature. Glacier's Vladimir Poliakov, Sarik Andreasyan, Gevond Andreasyan and Hayden Christensen serve as Executive Producers.
A cautionary tale of a school lunch program gone horribly wrong, Cooties tells the story of a young girl who eats a chicken nugget infected with a virulent disease. She begins to transform into a violent, murderous flesh-ripping juvenile who transmits the disease, which only affects the pre-pubescent. As it quickly spreads, the teachers find themselves trapped in the school, faced with a horde of rampaging adolescents, and must come up with an immediate lesson plan to save their very lives.
Related: Cooties Trailer: Elijah Woods Vs. Zombie Kids!
Wood will portray Clint Hadson, a substitute teacher who must deal with a little more than the usual classroom hijinks. Alison Pill is Lucy, an eternally optimistic 4th grade teacher and Clint's childhood crush. Rainn Wilson portrays Wade, a former high school all-star athlete whose dashed dreams have landed him the position of PE teacher.
Cooties screenwriters Leigh Whannell and Ian Brennan are (separately) the creators of two hit series on polar ends of the entertainment spectrum. Whannell was the Co-Creator and writer of the first three chapters of the Saw motion picture franchise, as well as Insidious (1&2) and Brennan is the Co-Creator and Executive Producer of the long-running series Glee, for which he has received two Golden Globes. Brennan will also appear in a featured role in Cooties.
Cooties is the second film in production for Glacier Films, with American Heist currently shooting in New Orleans.
Financing for Cooties has been arranged by Paradigm who are handling North American sales.
Cooties will shoot entirely in the Los Angeles area.

(Crain's) -- Washington reigned supreme in this year's voting for the 100 Most Powerful People in Healthcare.
With health care reform holding center stage in our nation's capital--and even across the country--it's not surprising that the top five named to Modern Healthcare's eighth annual list all have their offices--and perhaps second homes--in the gray and white buildings that run along Pennsylvania, Constitution and Independence avenues.
And, as the debate rages on over reform, it's clear that the top man in this year's list, President Barack Obama, will face many more hurdles as he works to broker deals with sectors of the health care industry to achieve cost savings in his No. 1 domestic priority, while herding a still-divided Congress into approving a bill that he can sign his name to and claim as a victory for his administration.
In making his predictions on the 100 Most Powerful, "I'll be surprised if President Obama is not at the top of the list," speculated Bill Carpenter, president and CEO of LifePoint Hospitals, Brentwood, Tenn., and chairman-elect of the Federation of American Hospitals. Mr. Carpenter, who debuted on the list at No. 27, says Mr. Obama's strong leadership position in the national debate about health care reform made him deserving of the top billing.
"I think he's done this in a politically astute way," Mr. Carpenter says. "Clearly, the president is pushing hard on his goals to expand access to care, to reform health insurance and to control costs. There's no question that this is his agenda."
Mr. Obama--who rose from No. 5 last year when he was a presidential candidate--began earning his stripes as a champion for reform during the campaign and early in his presidency. He signed a $32.8-billion bill to reauthorize the State Children's Health Insurance Program, and then a sweeping $787-billion economic stimulus package that will invest billions of dollars to boost health information technology, hospital payments, Medicaid assistance to states and research projects.
And he didn't stop there. In an attempt to achieve what the Clinton administration failed at more than 15 years ago, Mr. Obama this past winter released a budget blueprint that sought to reform the way health care was delivered and paid for, setting aside more than $600 billion to establish a new health reserve fund, using cuts from public entitlement programs as a way to pay for this endeavor.
He also sought to raise the visibility of the White House as the reform debate heated up in Congress, holding public town hall meetings across the country, making it clear to lawmakers that he wanted a comprehensive piece of legislation to sign by the fall.
The core of the administration's objectives has been to extend health insurance to the uninsured while striving to lower the cost of health care. Expanding health care coverage to all will increase America's economic well-being as more Americans become healthier, and have a positive impact on the nation's labor supply, the White House Council of Economic Advisers concluded in a recent report.
But the road to reform, as the new administration has discovered, has not been easy. Mr. Obama faces a fragmented Congress, with multiple bills on the table to reconcile, with price tags in the near $1-trillion range, not to mention a restless American public, whose faith in the Obama administration to revamp the system has foundered recently, according to national polls. Naysayers have accused Mr. Obama of trying to gut the employer-based private health insurance system, replacing it with a government-run program that would end up rationing care.
Who will pay? And how much?
How to pay for such an overhaul has also been a contentious issue.
Mr. Obama has worked to bargain with hospitals and drug manufacturers alike, to pledge and then deliver additional savings over the next 10 years for the greater good of reform. Hospitals are hoping, for example, that the deal they made with the White House to limit Medicare rate cuts in reform legislation to $155 billion over 10 years will result in longer-term returns by having more people covered by insurance.
These deals, however, are not expected to cover the full cost of reform, and as both chambers of Congress pushed back the date of full passage for a bill until at least September, it's becoming more and more likely that Mr. Obama may be losing his grip on some of the promises he made in last year's election.
Mr. Obama repeatedly told prospective voters during the presidential campaign that "you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime." However, in light of the fact that Congress has been rolling out legislation that costs just under the $1-trillion mark, there may not be any other way to foot the cost of such an overhaul.
As director of the White House's National Economic Council, Larry Summers recently cautioned that Obama's proposed health care overhaul "needs funding from somewhere" and that source may very likely be a tax hike, although the White House later retracted this notion. Whether taxes will be raised on Corporate America or on individuals to pay for such an expensive overhaul remains to be seen.
In addition, the president has taken a great deal of flak on his reform platforms during this month's town hall meetings on health care reform, forcing him to take a less hard-line position on a public health-plan option.
The option is "not the essential element" of an overhaul, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said recently. She debuted at No. 2 on the list.
If any reform deal is reached, it's going to have to come from both the president and Congress, says Nicholas Wolter, CEO of the Billings (Mont.) Clinic, another first-timer on this year's list, coming in at No. 36.
"President Obama seems to be using his presidential leadership to get movement at this point," Mr. Wolter says. "He's already said congressional leadership is going to be critical" in getting a bill to his desk.
Ron Pollack, founder and executive director of advocacy group Families USA, who placed at No. 83 this year, expects that Obama will play a larger role as legislation reaches conference proceedings between the House and Senate, Mr. Pollack says. This is the fourth time Mr. Pollack has been named to the annual 100 Most Powerful ranking.
"The House version is more of a partisan exercise than in the Senate and will be more liberal, whereas the Senate will be more conservative," Mr. Pollack predicts. "Given these significant differences, the president will play an important role in bridging those differences, to get to 'yes' in both places."
Mr. Pollack says he's very confident Obama will succeed. "We have made truly historic progress in moving reform, and I expect meaningful legislation to be enacted into law this year," he says.
Other Obama administration officials scored high on the list this year. In an e-mail, HHS Secretary Sebelius reiterated the administration's commitment to enacting health insurance reform this year.
"We have an historic, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to improve the lives of all Americans, insured and uninsured alike. Reform will improve the quality of care for every American and give us all the peace of mind that comes with knowing you can always find high-quality, affordable health insurance, no matter what. I'm confident that we will achieve this goal," she wrote.
Nancy-Ann DeParle, director of the White House Office of Health Reform, who ranks No. 3 as another first-timer on the list, has taken a more visible role in the president's town hall meetings, health care stakeholder forums and backdoor negotiations on health reform.
Ms. DeParle, who also made Modern Healthcare's list of this year's Top 25 Women in Healthcare, has been a staunch advocate for a public option, stating earlier this year that she was optimistic the White House and congressional Democrats could overcome opposition by the GOP and insurers to a proposed new government-run health insurance program.
Karen Ignagni, president and CEO of America's Health Insurance Plans, who ranks No. 50 this year, down slightly from her No. 44 spot in 2008, has challenged the White House position, saying the public option was a reform "deal-breaker," and noting the insurance industry has made other concessions to increase industry competition.
Ms. Ignagni, undoubtedly one of the most influential health care lobbyists in Washington, has made a giant push to defend her industry, arguing that insurance companies should not be portrayed as the villains in the reform debate. Insurers, in the meantime, have made it clear that a government-sponsored plan would be a deal-breaker, not to mention a "death spiral for private insurance and financial catastrophe for many hospitals and doctors," Ms. Ignagni says.
The House bill championed by Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, does call for a public option, something that Waxman is likely to be fighting for throughout the debate.
After falling off the list for several years, Mr. Waxman is back on the list at No. 21, a testament to how important his committee and his negotiating skills have been in shaping health care reform in the House. He last appeared on the list in 2006 when he held the No. 77 spot.
Mr. Waxman, whose committee was the last of three panels to orchestrate and approve the House health reform bill--America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009--found himself in a crossfire between members of his own party, as fiscally conservative and progressive Democrats sought to challenge provisions in the bill and stymie negotiations.
After several weeks of closed-door meetings and playing traffic cop among the various Democratic caucuses on his panel, Mr. Waxman finally managed to broker a deal to achieve additional cost savings in the bill, which was approved by a very narrow margin in the Energy and Commerce Committee.
Whether the controversial provision remains in any reform package lawmakers deliver to Mr. Obama may be influenced in part by the two lawmakers who run the Senate Finance Committee: Sens. Max Baucus, D-Mont., the panel's chairman, and Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, its ranking member. Both soared up the list to rank No. 4 and No. 5, respectively, after ranking No. 28 and No. 29, respectively, last year.
All eyes on Capitol Hill and in the health care industry have been focusing on Mr. Baucus, and what he will ultimately roll out as the committee's health care reform blueprint. Unlike his counterparts in the House and on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, Mr. Baucus has held off on releasing an actual bill in an effort to achieve some type of bipartisan agreement that has a chance of getting to the president's desk this year. "Reforming our broken health care system is not only a moral imperative, it is an economic necessity," Mr. Baucus says in an e-mail. "We are committed to meaningful health care reform that reduces skyrocketing costs and ensures quality, affordable coverage for every American. This is our No. 1 priority, and we are dedicated to getting it done--done right and done this year."
Recently, he set a Sept. 15 deadline to get his committee to agree on a reform proposal that aims to cover at least 95% of all Americans, and will hopefully cost under $900 billion over the next decade. A number of provisions in the forthcoming bill are expected to drive down health care costs, such as moving providers away from fee-for-service to "bundled" payments, establishing a system of value-based purchasing and creating so-called accountable-care organizations, a model that lets hospitals and physicians share joint responsibility for the quality and cost of care delivered to patients. Mr. Baucus, who's now in his sixth term, "is probably going to be the most influential member in the Congress in ultimate resolution of health care reform," Mr. Pollack says, adding that both Messrs. Baucus and Grassley deserve credit for taking such careful negotiations in an effort to write a bipartisan bill.
"Grassley is under tremendous pressure right now. He's got members and leaders in his caucus telling him to stop negotiating and join in opposition to health reform," Mr. Pollack says. At the same time, the package being crafted in the Finance Committee is more conservative than what the Democrats would like to see, "and so he is experiencing difficult criticisms to his left and his right, and it takes a rather brave and caring person to continue a process with that kind of static."
Mr. Baucus is facing the same challenges. "The easy thing would be to just go with the majority in his caucus," Mr. Pollack says.
However, one of the mistakes former President Bill Clinton has admitted to, in negotiating his own health care reform bill nearly two decades ago, is that "he felt he had an opportunity to reach an agreement with Republicans, which would have yielded a different bill than he wanted. But it would have made progress on health reform. Baucus has learned from these mistakes and is facing the criticism on left and right to try to reach an accommodation," Mr. Pollack adds. "I give him credit for his persistence in doing so."
In crafting this package, Mr. Baucus made a bold decision not to include a public plan option--a move that's bound to rankle his Democratic counterparts in the House and in the Senate, as Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy's bill includes such an option. Instead, the Finance Committee has leaned toward the much talked about "cooperative" type marketplace for health plans, where groups of individuals, regions and even states can team together to better negotiate rates with private health plans.
One of the more notable first-timers on the list is Peter Orszag, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, who debuts at No. 9. The former director of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has made his stamp on the direction health care reform should take. In particular, he has advocated for an independent review council to advise the president on Medicare reimbursement decisions, despite the CBO's recent calculations that such a council would deliver only modest savings over the next decade.
The point of the proposal was never to generate savings over the next decade, Mr. Orszag insisted recently on his blog. "Instead, the goal is to provide a mechanism for improving quality of care for beneficiaries and reducing costs over the long term. In other words, in the terminology of our belt-and-suspenders approach to a fiscally responsible health reform, the (Medicare council) is a game-changer, not a scoreable offset."
George Halvorson, chairman and CEO of Kaiser Permanente based in Oakland, Calif., who leaped from No. 78 in 2008 to No. 12 this year, is hoping that Congress will include more provisions on prevention in the final reform package.
"Much of the legislation is built around financial issues, not on better care," says Mr. Halvorson, an outspoken critic of the current health care delivery system and author of the book Health Care Will Not Reform Itself, which was released in June.
Mr. Halvorson believes that universal coverage could be achieved "by requiring everyone to buy coverage, every carrier to sell coverage," and by allowing low-income families to get their premiums subsidized. "This way, people don't wait until they're pregnant or have cancer before they join the risk pool."
As for Mr. Obama's tack on reform, "he hasn't come back with a final plan yet. It's still a work in progress," Mr. Halvorson says, adding that Mr. Obama has taken the position of having Congress do the first cut on the plan before he steps in. "Once he has all of the pieces on table, he'll sit down and figure out how this whole thing fits together and that has yet to happen."
Like Mr. Halvorson, Steve Burd, president and CEO of Safeway stores based in Pleasanton, Calif., who ranks No. 17 as a first-timer on the list, believes that making Americans healthier is the key to lowering health care costs.
Dismayed by annual double-digit increases in its health care bill, which had amounted to $1 billion annually, Safeway, a self-insured employer, in 2005 "decided to design a plan where personal responsibility was the core," says Mr. Burd, an early supporter of health care reform who has been CEO since 1993. Safeway is one of the largest supermarket chains with more than 1,700 stores in the U.S. and Canada, some 190,000 employees and more than $44 billion in revenue in 2008, according to the company.
Using automobile insurance as the inspiration, Safeway built upon a provision in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 that permits employers to differentiate premiums based on behaviors.
"There's a piece of this called Healthy Measures, which measures cholesterol, blood pressure, tobacco use and body mass index," Mr. Burd says. Employees pay a higher premium based on whether they smoke, have a high BMI or blood pressure count, although Safeway offers smoking-cessation and other prevention programs to encourage better health.
As a reward for quitting smoking, Safeway "will write a check for any elevated premiums they've experienced," Mr. Burd says. Similar deals exist for lowering BMI numbers and cholesterol levels, he says.
Considering that a smoker easily costs an employer $1,400 a year in annual medical expenses, based on Safeway's estimates, "If you can give them free cessation training, it can save you money on annual health care costs" just by eliminating these types of health care risk factors, Mr. Burd says.
So far, it has paid off: "Over the last four years, we've held our health care costs flat. During that same time period, costs have increased by 38% for the rest of the country," Mr. Burd says.
Mr. Burd, chairman of a coalition of large employers that endorses a mix of market-based reforms and universal coverage to improve health care, says his plan to bend the cost curve has already made an impact on Capitol Hill. As an example, there's a provision in the Senate HELP Committee bill "to allow employers more flexibility to do wellness programs and differentiate premiums," he says.
Meanwhile, John Tooker, executive vice president and CEO of the American College of Physicians, has his own wish list for reforming the health care system: improving the way primary care is structured and how it's reimbursed for the services it provides. Mr. Tooker is another first-timer on this year's list, coming in at No. 86.
"For example, there is currently no reimbursement for care coordination of chronically ill patients or preventive services in primary care, and we've been advocating for that to be included" in reform legislation, Mr. Tooker says.
Mr. Tooker attributed his selection to the growing recognition of the importance of primary care, and the role that the ACP has played in health care access, delivery, workforce and payment reform.
"The ACP, American Academy of Family Physicians, American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Osteopathic Assn. have worked together and with other key stakeholders over the past year to boost primary care," Mr. Tooker says. The group, which represents internists and subspecialties of internal medicine, has taken an active role in promoting health IT, comparative-effectiveness research and the development of patient-centered medical homes.

Should a Storm Window Design Match my House?
The storm window selection process is an important one because you want to ensure that you not only spend a reasonable amount of money on the design that you end up selecting but also that the window looks as great as possible when paired with the rest of the property. As such, when you are first comparing the options that are available to you to purchase from window manufacturers, it can help to consider how well each one will look when combined with the other elements of the property. One question many property owners ask during this process is whether they should select a window design that matches or contrasts with the other elements of their houses. As such, here are some different options to help answer this question.
The decision regarding which design of storm windows to select is really going to be based on your personal preferences and sense of style. In truth, some home owners regularly choose storm window designs that contrast with the other elements of their homes while other property owners prefer to select designs that match appropriately with the other elements of their houses.
A great way to determine which look you will prefer is to compare both those designs that complement the other aspects of the house as well as those that contrast with the house design. By doing this, you will begin to gather ideas on which styles you prefer and will be able to make a decision from this point. Be sure to note any restrictions that may be placed on you by a home owners association if you belong to one to ensure that you don't violate any rules with the storm window design selection.
One special consideration that many people must take into account is when they own a historic type of house. In this type of situation, it is usually best to select a storm window design that will match your house rather than one that will contrast with it. This decision is usually made for historic purposes since you won't want anything to detract with the historic appeal of the property. Thankfully, there are many storm window styles that are made to be practically unnoticeable so that you won't need to worry about people noticing them when visiting the property. This storm window purchase can be particularly beneficial for you if you own an older house because the windows that are already on the property probably aren't working as well as they did in the past.
Again, the best thing you can really do when buying storm windows is compare as many offers as possible before selecting the one that you would like to purchase. By comparing several different options, you will likely find the one that catches your eye the best and that you feel will work well with the other elements of the house that you own. Additionally, when you compare several different storm window offers, you may end up saving more money since you will be able to determine how the prices are varying from one manufacturer to the next.
Overall, this purchase of a storm window can be very beneficial for your house in many different ways, regardless of which house matching storm window design you decide to select. Not only can the window help to protect the interior of the house from storm damage but it can also help you to feel more comfortable in the home because of such things as increased energy efficiency and also for reduced noise entering the house from outside.
