Who has time to bathe anymore? The truth is not many of us do. But the benefits of a good bath may just have you marking out a little time from your busy schedule for some much needed hydrotherapy and aromatherapy.
For centuries bathing has been associated with healing and tranquility. Roman bath houses were so grand some even included art museums and lecture halls. Bathing was also considered a past time of only the wealthy or a special prescription from the healer. It was not any everyday event for the common person. And so, how fortunate are we today to have clean, hot running water in our homes?
To get the basics of cleanliness covered most of us opt for the shower. But the occasional bath has far greater benefits than just getting us clean. Bathing improves circulation, relieves muscle pains and cramps, alleviates skin problems and edema, promotes relaxation, and stimulates the removal of toxins from the cells into the blood and out through the skin.
We’ve all heard our skin is the largest organ in the body. It absorbs nearly everything it comes in contact with and it covers, well, our entire body. That’s a lot of surface area for absorbing either good or bad materials. Not only that, but studies have shown that these absorbed materials are delivered directly to the bloodstream. How is that for efficiency? It’s no surprise that pharmaceutical companies manufacture many prescriptions in dermal patches for patients too sick or unable to swallow pills. What all this means to you is that bathing can be a super effective way to heal those little aches and pains given a few guidelines.
The best bath temperature for increasing circulation and absorbing all those wonderful herbs, essential oils, and minerals you’ve placed in your bath is around 100* degrees. You may be saying well this is hardly warm, but this slight increase above our body temperature is all that is needed to get the job done. Anything higher will actually cause the opposite effect. If possible, cover your entire body with water. Any parts and pieces not underwater cover with a towel.
Now comes the hard part….rest. Stay put for at least 15-30 minutes. Give your body time to relax and shift gears. Take the phone off the hook, notify your significant other you are not to be disturbed, focus on your breathing, and let it all out!
As water-logged as you may feel afterwards, bathing actually dehydrates you. Remember the prune-like fingers? So, be sure to drink a large glass of filtered water and head straight to bed.

Tankless water heaters are designed to only heat the water you need when you need it. This means you use less energy since you are not constantly reheating the same water. When you turn on the hot water tap the water heater will recognize the command and heat the water as it is sent to you, when you shut the tap off the water heater shuts down and waits until it is needed again.
A tankless hot water heater uses much less energy than a gas water heater or electric water heater and will deliver more hot water on a constant basis. If you have ever been in the shower and ran out of hot water then you know the importance of having a larger source of hot water coming through your tap. Gas water heaters and electric water heaters store a certain amount of water in their tanks and work to keep it hot so it will be ready when you need it. The downside to this method is the excessive use of energy it takes to constantly reheat the water while waiting for it to be needed and of course the limited amount of hot water that is available to you at one time.
A tankless water heater will offer you an endless supply of hot water and never leave you shivering under an ice cold shower faucet.
The savings that a tankless water heater can offer to you energy bill are dramatic. Most home owners experience a drop in their energy bills by about 40% compared to an electric water heater. Gas water heaters are much more efficient than electric so the savings are slightly lower when compared next to them.
Your typical tank style hot water heater has a life expectancy of around 10 years. A tankless water heater system will last up to 20 years, that’s twice as long as your typical tank style heaters.
The space in your home is valuable and every square inch counts. With typical gas and electric water heaters the tank can take up to 16 square feet of your homes space. The tankless water heating system is no larger than a briefcase and can be installed inside or outside of your home on any wall.
With your typical tank style water heaters you can expect that over time rust and other build up will occur inside the tank. This build up is transferred to your pipes and then to you through the tap in your home. Tankless water heaters deliver clean and fresh water upon demand.
You may pay more for a tankless water heating system initially but overall it is designed to save you money as well as offer an environmentally safe way to heat the water in your home.

Taking time to define your project vision, scope, goals, and governance will help ensure all project stakeholders are aligned and working toward the same end results. This is especially critical given that the technical readiness team and user readiness team will be working independently to pull their respective pieces together. After you complete this section, refer to it throughout your project to ensure you’re on track to achieve the end state you wanted. Use the goals that you identify below to measure against your outcomes, and mitigate as needed.
What do you want to accomplish with this project (in other words, why are you doing it)?
What are the risks, and what’s your plan to mitigate those risks?
Discuss the following sections with your project team and sponsors.
Document your vision, scope, goals, and risks for this project.
Revisit your project team to validate that you’ve engaged the right team.
Organization business driver: Standardizing on Microsoft Teams aligns with our digital workplace transformation and enables us to drive operational efficiencies, eliminate redundant solutions, and save USD5 million.
User value-add: Microsoft Teams (1) saves time by providing a single location for project notes, Office docs, team members, conversations, and meetings; (2) simplifies communication by using a centralized contact list and persistent chat tracking for quick access to your conversations, and (3) alleviates the frustration of trying to find that lost email attachment by storing and accessing files in one place.
Identify use cases and personas to further refine your project vision.
The various coexistence modes, and which would be optimal for your organization.
The best way for Skype for Business and Teams to coexist before you move to Teams.
Whether you should conduct a pilot to validate technical and user readiness in your organization.
Your goals define the outcome you want and enable you to measure the success of the project. Goals can be defined as objectives and key results (OKRs), and the measures of project success can be defined as key success indicators (KSIs). It’s essential that you get full participation from project stakeholders in defining OKRs and KSIs, to help ensure they feel a sense of ownership and align these measures of success to defined project tasks. Goals should include a mix of technical and user-focused success.
The following table shows examples of OKRs and KSIs for the initial phases of a Skype for Business to Teams upgrade project.
To help ensure your project stays on track, consider defining smaller, short-term milestones in addition to bigger, long-term goals. This can include metrics that you’ll capture as part of your user pilot. When considering your timeline, use the Microsoft 365 Roadmap if you’re waiting for features that aren’t yet available in Teams.
With any project, unforeseen events or other factors can arise and throw your project off track. It’s important to proactively assess potential risks and define a mitigation plan for overcoming the issues that might arise, so your project can continue toward your goals. A risk register is an excellent tool for tracking project risks—along with how likely they are and their potential impact—and capturing your mitigation plan. The following table shows a sample risk register.
Network quality Medium High High Execute a network planning exercise.
Low user adoption High High High Proactively work with users during the pilot and deployment phases; implement a targeted awareness and training campaign to create desire.
Product readiness for compliance and user scenario requirements: Refer to the product roadmap to gauge when Teams will be ready for your organization.
Upgrade groups: Determine whether you’ll be enabling Teams or upgrading users by upgrade groups, which could affect the timeline of your overall upgrade journey.
Organizational factors such as change freeze, fiscal year end, deployment lifecycles: Discuss and account for any internal processes that might influence your upgrade timeline.
Other changes that are occurring at or around the same time: Consider bundling changes or spacing them out to facilitate a positive user experience and minimize any impact on productivity.
Resourcing: Confirm resource allocation with your project stakeholders to ensure that the project team you’ve brought together has enough bandwidth to complete all necessary tasks.
As a reference point, a sample timeline is provided for the pre-upgrade, upgrade, and post-upgrade phases of the Upgrade Pro journey, which we encourage you to adjust as needed to align with the specific needs of your organization.
After you’ve completed the activities described above, you should have a solid foundation for your project. Continue with your technical readiness and organizational readiness planning activities.

A new visual identity reflects a start-up’s mission of family-empowerment.
Penguino needed versatile visual branding that can function on a variety of platforms, running the gamut from digital needs to print collateral to product design. The logo also needed to act as an ambassador that quickly conveyed the clients’ core values.
Create impactful visual branding elements for multiple platforms.
Following an in-depth creative consultation, we chose kid-friendly fonts and paired them with an approachable yet sophisticated color palette. We then worked with focus groups to ensure that the primary brand mark struck the perfect balance between purposeful and approachable. From there, we developed complementary graphics that allows Penguino to further evolve their brand story and bring their logo to life.
Develop graphics that meet clients needs, appeal to target audiences, and allow room for growth.
After fully understanding the goals and visions for the brand, our team developed a logo, color palette and flexible branding assets that appeal to children and adults alike. The result was a modern and energetic character-based logo who not only makes you smile, but encourages families to explore together. Beyond its feature on the recently-launched website, Penguino’s logo is set to roam the world on travel boxes, travel journals and more to come.
Penguino inspires families to be brave and explore the world.

“To be clear; I am a believer in decentralization. Having built systems with that I can tell you it is not the magic dust you are looking for.” — Amazon Web Services Chief Technology Officer Werner Vogels.
As we gear up to release our next e-book on the Kubernetes open source container orchestration engine (check with us in about a month), we have been reviewing how well K8s has been making its way into the enterprise — the true determinant of whether the software becomes an essential component of “the new stack,” so to speak.
Comcast has found that not only does Kubernetes easily scale applications, but even helps scale IT operations teams. Its use of Kubernetes is all about “decoupling the operations of [engineering] teams at an organization, and giving them a platform to manage their own large, complicated distributed systems as easily as I can manage my Linux box,” Comcast’s Richard Fliam said. Not only would this approach cut deployment time for apps, it also cuts the amount of time staff has to spend in documentation and the communication required across groups.
Elsewhere we found that — surprise! — even Microsoft is using Kubernetes, which it needed to quickly road-test the then upcoming release of a version of SQL Server 2017 that was ported to Linux . Originally, it would take Microsoft an entire night to run 700-800 tests of the containerized SQL Server. With Kubernetes, however, the time needed to complete those tests shrank to a few hours.
According to Module Counts, the total number of unique Node.js modules surpassed Java in 2014 and now outpaces 3 million to 2 million. Node.js continues to grow its user base and complexity, but the continued increase in downloads per year is also related to the shortening application release cycles. Looking to the future, npm downloads per user per month will be an interesting stat to monitor.
How does open source change in the cloud? This week in the New Stack Makers, we spoke with Apache Software Foundation co-founder Jim Jagielski about the Free Software Foundation’s Affero GPL, a version of the GPL that specifically covers cloud use of free software.

On 31 May 2006, the OECD held a workshop on increasing the access to public sector information (PSI, e.g., geographical and meteorological data, libraries, archives, museums). The public sector is a large producer of content with major potential for digitisation and new commercial and non-commercial applications and value-added services. But wider use of public sector information may require changes in policy approaches and reorganisation of public information. This workshop explored economic and distributional aspects of different PSI access, cost, pricing and distribution models. It took stock of OECD work to explore possible next steps on the basis of: i) available economic analysis and metrics of public sector information, ii) industry examples, and iii) different government approaches.
The Workshop built on the completed OECD study.
Questions addressed include: What are the rationale, advantages, disadvantages and effects of different access, cost, pricing, charging and distribution models.
Questions addressed include: Who is generating commercial value-added products and services based on public sector information? And how? Are there bottlenecks for development of the use of PSI? Are there special issues relating to data access at international level, with access/pricing fragmented at national level?
• Jennifer Campbell, Member of the PRIMET Board, Managing Director of Meteo Consult B.V.
How far have governments developed PSI access and use in practice? What is the experience with different models? What kind of information is required to clarify and improve policy?

Some of the most gratifying moments in my career have been when policymakers have used the objective evidence I helped unearth to write legislation and policy guidance. At those moments, it becomes clear that strong connections between policymakers and researchers can make meaningful contributions to social well-being.
At Mathematica, colleagues and I recently surveyed states’ call centers to assess the quality and completeness of information provided to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Numerous state policymakers used our findings to support additional training, likely resulting in thousands of enrollees getting better support to make decisions about their care. While I worked at the Congressional Research Service (CRS), members of Congress used evidence I gathered from states about Medicaid eligibility processes and, from providers, about care coordination interventions. With that evidence, they developed legislative approaches designed to improve care for recipients of long-term services and supports and establish new benefits to support coordinated care under Medicare and Medicaid. These examples, and so many more, fueled my passion for bringing evidence into the hands of policymakers to support decision making.
In previous posts, I described some reasons that it can be hard to bridge the gap between researchers and policymakers. I also offered tips to fellow researchers about how to more effectively reach policymakers. Now it’s time to turn the tables and offer some friendly advice to policymakers.
Policymakers are inundated with meetings and bombarded by special interest groups, so they often lack bandwidth to actively seek out relevant subject matter experts and research studies. By building informal networks of responsive and trustworthy researchers who will make themselves readily available via telephone or videoconference, policymakers can minimize their access barriers to evidence. Try to identify these researchers in organizations you trust, such as Mathematica or universities, or through personal referral or Google scans. Be sure they have shared values and are committed to drawing conclusions from evidence. These researchers must be willing to serve as on-call subject matter experts and make referrals to their colleagues for questions they cannot answer. When you find these researchers, store their numbers in your phone and reach out often.
During the time I worked for the California Medicaid Research Institute (CAMRI) and CRS, state and federal policymakers invested time in creating a dialogue with researchers. California’s Medicaid director at the time, Toby Douglas, held meetings to discuss policy priorities for the year that might benefit from evidence produced by researchers from the University of California. Similarly, at the beginning of each Congressional legislative session, committee staff met with CRS to discuss their foreseeable information needs. These conversations gave researchers time to design studies and gather information that would directly support policymakers’ agendas. Establishing similar routines with networks of trusted researchers can give them a heads-up to gather information before policymakers need it, minimizing delays and wait times for valuable evidence.
Policymakers often design programs and policies first and hire researchers to assess their impact later. Although researchers will do their best to adjust, being late to the table can hinder their ability to design meaningful evaluations, such as identifying control groups early and collecting baseline data to compare with data resulting from interventions. Early invitations to researchers might enable opportunities for random assignment, helpful data elements to be collected, and useful information to be captured during start-up activities for a particular program or policy. Seeking input from evaluators early can dramatically improve study designs and lead to more meaningful and applicable findings.
Researchers can also provide great value during policy discussions. Inviting knowledgeable researchers to serve on advisory committees and commissions, testify at hearings, and participate in policy discussions can provide invaluable opportunities to ground abstract policy discussions in facts and evidence. For example, as a Medicaid and Medicare expert at CRS, I often met behind closed doors with members of Congress and their staff to talk through legislative options. These meetings allowed them the opportunity to obtain authoritative information grounded in real-world experience. On countless instances, this helped members select legislative solutions that had their desired impact.
Policymaking entities, such as state legislatures or departments, can generate enormous benefits from formalized relationships with research institutions. One key to a successful partnership is to structure these relationships to allow for ad hoc questions to be posed as problems arise for policymakers who then encourage short turnaround times for responses. Another key to success is to establish mutually agreed upon ground rules for producing objective evidence and publishing research. CAMRI is an example of such an arrangement. CAMRI is one of several state–university partnerships that facilitate dialogue among University of California researchers and California’s department overseeing Medicaid. Opportunities exist for many state and federal government entities to build similar relationships with research organizations and universities.
Building routine, open, and formalized communication between policymakers and researchers has enormous potential to enable decision making to be driven by what works. Bringing researchers to the table helps remove the barriers to accessing evidence and builds bridges between evidence and decisions. Policymakers will need to make the upfront investment to establish relationships with researchers, but when those relations are built, there is no limit to the benefits they will reap.

Do you want to take a course specifically aimed at teaching professional-level dressmaking skills? Or do you want to perfect your sewing skills and make your hobby into a profession?
You will need to find a good tailoring or dressmaking school and sign up for a sewing course. There is a fair amount of choice out there – it all depends on where on you live, your age, your goals and your possibilities (both financially and time-wise).

Search for sewing classes near me to get started.
Sewing and other crafts are not university courses – manual professions are not taught there. However, some universities offer BAs on fashion design; sewing skills and sewing pattern-making are usually part of the curriculum.
There are several options: fashion illustration, fashion marketing, fashion practice and promotion, fashion and textile design, footwear design, patternmaking, costume design… depending on how you want to specialise.
Discover also helpful resources for learning how to sew.
There are also various colleges specialised in the textile arts, where you can take semester-length courses to perfect your sewing skills and learn to make sewing patterns and design suits, skirts and dresses.
University of the Arts London has undergraduate courses on bespoke tailoring, cordwaining (Fashion Bags and Accessories and Footwear as two distinct courses) and fashion design in various specialities (menswear, knitwear), costume design, as well as pattern cutting and embroidery.
The Arts University Bournemouth teaches fashion and costume design.
University for the Creative Arts give undergraduate and graduate courses. You can get a PhD in Fashion and Textiles, or why not go for a BA in Hand Embroidery for Fashion, Interior, and Textile Arts?
Hereford College of Arts lets you do a BA in Textile Design.
The Glasgow School of Art offers courses in fashion design and textile design.
You will find Bachelor (Hons) courses on fashion or costume design at many British universities. Most courses last 3-4 years full-time (4-5 years sandwich).
The entry requirements vary greatly. Some insist on A-levels (but even here the requirements vary from CCC to BBB); others use the UCAS tariff points, accepting other post-16 qualifications. Those offering courses with a foundation year usually accept applicants starting at around 64 points; otherwise the average is around 112-128 points (but again, it varies greatly and some universities accept starting 96 or even 80 points). You can find out more about the UCAS conversion system here, including a tariff points calculator.
Perhaps of interest is the University of Bedfordshire’s Fashion Design BA with professional practice year – a good way to get a foot into a firm and learn the day-to-day craft of fashion design and sewing.
The University of Wales Trinity St. David offers an integrated 4-year Master of Design, allowing you to skip a BA entirely.
Not all universities offer post-graduate courses, but there are a fair amount that will let you go on to a Master’s or even a PhD in Fashion Design.
Undergraduate courses cost somewhere between £10,000 and £16,000 a year, though again, some universities are cheaper than others. It’s worth comparing different universities to find the fashion design course that suits you best.
Do you want to find more reading material for learning how to sew?
If your interest is in dressmaking and bespoke tailoring rather than design, you are better off looking for an apprenticeship.
Most require basic skills (L1 or L2 depending on the school or business offering the apprenticeship) in English and Maths (making and adjusting sewing patterns require basic maths skills) but not necessarily art levels or any previous sewing experience – most provide basic sewing lessons. Of course, if you can demonstrate that you know how to use a sewing machine and make bias tape or know basting and hemming, you will have a better chance when applying to lower-level apprenticeships.
In some fields, you can go on to up to level 7, earning the equivalent of a Master’s degree in your field. The greatest advantage of an apprenticeship for learning how to sew professionally is the fact that it will cost you nothing – in fact, you will receive a small salary in return for your services to the firm, and there are various programmes to help apprentices with travel costs and room.
You have a better chance of being taken for an apprenticeship if you have some of the necessary sewing skills. You can, of course, take sewing classes at various private institutions or take a private sewing teacher to teach you how to use the overlock presser foot on your sewing machine.
But there are also various preparatory sewing courses for young people who want to become a tailor or dressmaker.
Newham College London offers a pre-apprenticeship course for 16-18 year-olds and for adults in bespoke tailoring. Working with Savile Row tailors, you can continue on to a full apprenticeship with Newham College’s Intermediate and Advanced courses.
Would you like to know where to find free sewing patterns online? Living in Scotland and want to start sewing your own clothes: search for “sewing classes Glasgow” and sew away.
If you continue with Newham College, you will be working with Savile Row Bespoke at the same time as you continue your lessons at the college.
You can also try the Textile Centre of Excellence for apprenticeship programmes.
If you prefer not to take part in a programme, you can contact individual tailors and dressmakers with open apprenticeships.
That well of information for anyone searching for a job, gov.uk offers an overview of what sewing skills you might learn on the way to becoming a bespoke tailor or cutter – from sewing machine maintenance to doing a French seam to piping to the right basting stitches.
If you are uncertain if hemming pants, making sewing patterns, pinning and basting garments or matching fabrics is really the job for you, you can do an internship at a tailor’s or a fashion company. You will spend several weeks observing professionals and, ideally, learning a few sewing basics yourself. It’s the best way of finding out if becoming a dressmaker or home dec designer is really the right fit for you.
You can look for internships on general sites such as studentjob, or use one of the specialised portals such as Fashion United.
In addition, the Fold Line offers a list of companies regularly hiring or offering internships in the creative branch, including sites such as the Fashion and Textiles Museum in London or the online shop The Village Haberdashery.
You might consider taking online sewing classes and getting a diploma through an Internet school. There are certainly online schools out there offering lessons in anything from simple sewing classes to online diplomas in Fashion Design or Dressmaking.
It’s a good idea to try and find a forum where you can ask people about their experiences with that particular online sewing academy. You will probably end up well able to handle machine quilting, sew cushions and fashion dresses and trousers, but if the school is not well-regarded and their diploma cannot get you a job in the UK, you might want to look at the options for a physical sewing school instead.

Could removing taxes on new cars make our roads safer?
A car loan calculator is an online tool you can use to figure out how much you’d have to repay under different borrowing scenarios. RateCity’s car loan calculator lets you play around with the borrowing amount, interest rate, loan term and repayment frequency.
How much you plan to borrow – This is usually enough just to cover your car purchase, although some car loans can also include other expenses, such as insurance costs and extended warranties. Keep in mind that the more money you borrow, the longer it may take to pay back your car loan, and the more interest you'll likely be charged.
The length of your car loan term – A shorter term means higher repayment instalments but ultimately paying less in interest over the life of the loan. A longer loan term means lower repayment instalments but ultimately paying more in interest over the life of the loan.
The interest rate you’d like to pay – While many of us would love a cheap car loan, these loans may also have more specific lending criteria and thus may not be available to all borrowers. Some car loans with higher interest rates may offer more features and greater flexibility, which may provide greater value for money to the right borrower.
The best way to use a car loan calculator is to play around with different scenarios. So type in a range of borrowing amounts, loan terms, interest rates and repayment schedules. You might be surprised to discover how seemingly minor changes to the car loan calculator can result in significant changes to your repayment instalments.
A car loan comes with two main costs – interest and fees. The car loan market changes all the time, so there is no ‘normal’ interest rate. In some years, rates will be higher; in others, lower. That’s the nature of a market.
But whatever the average market rate is at the time, this average will be made up of several hundred different products, covering a wide range of interest rates. So you should never just accept the average rate – shop around and see if you can find a better deal.
A car loan is a loan that is specifically used to buy a vehicle, such as a car, van, motorbike, campervan or truck. There are two different types of interest you can be charged – variable-rate interest and fixed-rate interest. Some loans allow you to choose your preference, while others will only allow give you one option.
With a variable-rate car loan, the lender is entitled to change the interest rate at any time during the life of your loan. For example, your loan might start at 7.50 per cent; six months later, it might increase to 7.60 per cent; three months after that, it might fall to 7.45 per cent.
With fixed-rate car loans, the lender cannot change the interest rate during the fixed-rate period. For example, if you take out a five-year loan that is fixed at 7.50 per cent, you can be certain that the interest rate will remain steady during those five years.
However, once the fixed-rate period ends, your loan might automatically be reclassified as a variable-rate loan. In that case, you would be charged whatever the variable rate happened to be, whether it was lower or higher. This is something to ask about before signing on the dotted line.
The great thing about a car loan calculator is that it allows you to test different repayment scenarios, which means you can see how your finances would be affected by a rise in interest rates or a fall in interest rates.
With a secured car loan, you use your vehicle as collateral to guarantee the loan. If you default on your repayments, your car could be repossessed to cover the lender’s losses. In that case, your car might sell for less than the outstanding debt.
To cover themselves, some lenders will provide secured car loans only for new cars or particular used car models under a certain age. That way, the resale price is likely to exceed any outstanding debt. You can use a car loan calculator to work out what your repayments might look like if you took out a secured car loan.
With an unsecured car loan, you don’t have to provide any collateral to the lender. However, unsecured car loans generally have higher interest rates than secured car loans, because lenders regard them as riskier. To ensure you don't take out an unaffordable car loan, punch some numbers into a car loan calculator and see if you can meet the repayments.
Using a comparison website allows you to quickly compare dozens and dozens of different car loan products, and to filter the loans based on your preferences. With RateCity, when you find a car loan you like, just click and take things from there.
Letting your car dealer organise your loan for you is arguably the most convenient option – but it’s also likely to be the least beneficial. That’s because dealer finance is often less flexible and more expensive. You might also feel pressured to make big decisions on the spot.
Approaching a lender directly will allow you to cut out the middleman (i.e. the car dealer). The key, though, is to choose the right lender, because the lender will only discuss its own products. Comparison websites like RateCity make it easier for you to narrow down your options.
The final option is to go through a finance broker. Brokers offer several positives – they generally don’t charge for their services, they offer expert advice and they give you access to a range of options. The negative, though, is that brokers will only discuss lenders on their panel – and brokers are highly unlikely to have every lender on their panel.
Whatever option you choose, you should first use a car loan calculator so you're better informed before you start discussing options. That way, you’ll be in a much better position to understand whatever the finance professional tells you – and, if necessary, to negotiate better terms on your car loan.
How much can I borrow with a car loan?
Lenders don’t hand out money unless they’re confident the loan will be repaid. So one way to think of borrowing capacity is to imagine that it starts at $1 for each person and continues rising until the lender believes it has reached that particular person’s limit. For one person, that might be $10,000; for another, that might be $50,000.
To work out your income and spending, check your pay slips, bank statements and credit card statements. If your spending exceeds your income, you won’t qualify for a car loan. If your income exceeds your spending, you might qualify for a car loan.
The ‘gap’ between your income and spending is what you would use to repay the car loan. Once you know what that number is, you can use a car loan calculator to get a rough idea of how much you might be able to borrow.
How do you calculate the interest rate for a car loan?
The great thing about a car loan calculator is that it does all the maths for you. One important point to note is that at the start of your car loan, a relatively high share of your monthly payments goes towards interest, while a relatively low share goes towards repaying the principal.
However, the closer you get to the end of the loan, the less your monthly payments are allocated to interest and the more they’re allocated to principal. That’s because interest the price you pay for borrowing the principal; so the lower your outstanding principal, the less you get charged in interest.
As the table shows, the lower your principal, the less you get charged in ‘money fees’ (or interest). So if your car loan allows you to make additional repayments and reduce the principal ahead of schedule, the earlier you can close the loan and the less you’ll ultimately pay in interest.
Will I be penalised if I repay my car loan early?
Some lenders will slug you with early repayment charges if you pay off your car loan ahead of schedule. However, some lenders won’t. So this is something you should check before signing up for a car loan. Don't forget to use a car loan calculator before applying for a loan, because this will help you understand your repayment capacity.
A balloon payment is a one-off lump sum you pay at the end of a loan. Some lenders will give you the option of making lower repayments on your car loan in return for making a balloon payment. Generally, a loan with a balloon payment will cost more over the life of the loan than one without.
The big advantage of dealer finance is convenience. Instead of having to visit a car dealer and a lender or broker, consumers who opt for dealer finance only have to deal with one party. For some people, that is a big benefit.
Convenience, though, comes at a cost. Consumers who take out dealer finance often get less flexible car loans and end up paying more over the life of the loan, compared with consumers who work directly with a lender or take out a loan through a finance broker.
Another disadvantage of dealer finance is that often applies to a more limited range of makes and models than are available to consumers who take out car loans via a lender or broker. Plus, you might feel pressured into accepting an offer then and there, instead of taking time to think it over.
Make sure you punch some numbers into a car loan calculator before you sign up for dealer finance. That way, you won't lock yourself into a loan that you can't afford. Don’t be afraid to tell the car dealer that you need at least 24 hours of thinking time before signing up for a loan.
Before you take out a loan to finance your car purchase, you need to figure out what vehicle you want to purchase. And before you choose one of the thousands of makes and models on offer, you should consider whether you want a new or used car.
What should I consider when comparing car loans?
The obvious things to consider when comparing car loans are the advertised interest rate and the comparison rate. But don’t stop there. You should also take the time to consider the car loan’s features, which can often make or break a loan.
During your research, take the time to consider how often you’re likely to use each of the car loan’s features, as you might have to pay extra for features you don’t need. These extras could include insurance options, extended warranties or shortfall cover.
Watch out for fees. Numerous lenders charge establishment fees to cover the creation of your loan documentation. Ongoing fees may also be charged from month to month, in addition to the interest, which can make your loan significantly more expensive in the long run.
To get a better idea of the true cost of different car loans, look at each loan’s comparison rate, which combines the advertised interest rate with the lender’s standard fees and charges. Remember, though, that some loans include non-standard fees and charges that aren’t included in the comparison rate.
If you’d like to be able to pay off your car loan ahead of schedule and reduce the total interest you pay, check whether your lender charges fees for making extra repayments or for exiting the loan early, as these can make this option less affordable.
A car loan with a redraw facility can be helpful if you’re trying to pay your car loan off ahead of time but are concerned about committing too much of your money to the loan. Once you’re ahead of your repayment schedule, a redraw facility can be used to withdraw money from your car loan’s surplus balance, if required.
If you’re buying a car, it’s important to organise a report from the Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR). Formerly known as a REVS check, this report will determine whether the vehicle is being sold with a financial encumbrance (money owed by a previous owner). Some lenders will offer to do this check on your behalf – possibly for a fee.

An accident that allegedly happened just five miles west of Sunnyside on Friday claimed the life of a 52 year-old according to the news. The accident happened sometime after 5:20 p.m. at the intersection of Dekker and Van Belle roads.
Official records released from the Washington State Patrol show that the man was driving up Dekker Road when he reached Van Belle but failed to stop at the stop sign ahead of him. According to the news, a 55-year-old man driving a Chevrolet Cavalier collided with the vehicle that didn’t follow the traffic signs properly.
After the tragic crash, both cars came to rest on the northeast side of the road.
A passenger in the Cavalier was taken to the hospital but the passenger that was in the other vehicle refused to be taken.
The driver who reportedly failed to stop at the intersection was pronounced dead at the local hospital.
As a Bellingham personal injury attorney I sincerely hope all injured passengers and driver involved in this accident will have a steadfast recovery and wish that the a better education regarding traffic safety could be transmitted to all drivers across the country.
The thoughts of many personal injury lawyers are with the family of the man who was killed in this tragic incident.

This story contains information from a 2010 National Research Council (NRC) study that the NRC later updated and republished in the spring of 2011. To learn how Penn State Science programs rank in the updated study, click here.
Research and education programs in the basic sciences at Penn State are among the top programs in the United States, according to a comprehensive new National Research Council study titled "A Data-Based Assessment of Research-Doctorate Programs in the United States." The study uses a broad range of measurements to rank the performance of over 5,000 graduate programs in 62 fields at 212 U.S. universities, including all of the major research universities. "By any interpretation of this comprehensive study, Penn State now ranks among the best universities in the basic sciences in the United States," said Daniel J. Larson, professor of physics and dean of the Penn State Eberly College of Science. "The core programs in all of the seven academic departments in the college -- Astronomy and Astrophysics, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, and Statistics -- have risen dramatically in the NRC rankings since it last published such a report 15 years ago," he said.
Penn State Plant Biology, an intercollege program, is tops in the nation in the new National Research Council rankings, as illustrated by this graph, in which the blue oval shows the performance range for Penn State Plant Biology at the highest-ranked position. The performance ranges for all the other 117 plant science programs ranked by the National Research Council are illustrated with green ovals. Image credit: David Hunter, Penn State.
To see more graphs showing how other Penn State Science programs performed, click here.
The National Research Council study specifically ranks graduate programs, and it incorporates measures of student quality and success in those programs. It also is widely viewed as a review of faculty quality and research productivity -- both of which are very important for undergraduate programs as well. The report positions individual doctoral programs within a range of quality as gauged by two different ranking methods -- dubbed "R" and "S" rankings. The two ranking methods assigned different levels of importance to 20 characteristics, including the number of research publications per faculty member, the number of times a faculty member's publications have been cited in the research publications of other scientists, the percentage of faculty members whose research is supported by competitive grants, the number of Ph.D. graduates, and the median time to degree. Measures of faculty and student diversity and student support are also included. The report gives each program a ranking range, rather than a simple ranked list, to reflect the statistical confidence range in the results. "In a striking example, the report's ranking range for Penn State Plant Biology using the S ranking methodology is #1 to #3 among 116 doctoral-level plant-science programs nationwide. This narrow range places Penn State Plant Biology as tops in the nation, as compared with other high-ranking programs including the University of California at Berkeley (with a range from #1 to #6) and Cornell University (with a range from #1 to #8)," Larson said.
Simple rankings -- rather than ranges -- can be obtained from the National Research Council data, using the tools at <http://www.phds.org>, a website suggested by the National Academies Press. "A conservative approach of equal weighting of the National Research Council's R and S methodologies shows that our Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics rose from #21 in the 1995 NRC report to #5 in 2010, our Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology rose from #45 to #25, our Department of Chemistry rose from being tied for the #18 spot to #12, our Department of Mathematics rose from #37 to #8, our Department of Physics rose from #55 to #11, our Department of Statistics rose from #19 to #11, and our Department of Biology, not directly ranked in the 1995 study, comes out at #11," Larson said. "A simpler analysis based on the midpoints of the R and S ranges given in the National Research Council report produces very similar results," he added.
Applying similar analyses to the National Research Council ranges for all the top universities in the study reveals that there is a group of six elite universities in the basic sciences: Harvard, Princeton, Berkeley, MIT, Caltech, and Stanford, and that this group is followed immediately by Penn State Science. "While we were well aware of substantial improvements in our programs, I was surprised to find that, no matter how I analyzed the relative positions of the best-ranked science programs in the nation, our college consistently ranks right at or near the top of the next-tier grouping and unambiguously is in the top ten nationwide," Larson said.
Penn State programs in other areas, particularly in the College of the Liberal Arts, made impressive gains in the National Research Council rankings as well. "Penn State's rising stature among U.S. and world universities is now officially recognized with the publication of the National Research Council study.," Henry C. Foley, Penn State's Vice President for Research and Dean of the Graduate School, said. "This new report confirms what we already know from many other measures, and that is that Penn State has continued to strive for and to achieve scholarly and research excellence over the last 15 years. In that time, we have gone from what was a very good university to a truly great university."

Back at the Herald News, several of the editors and reporters wrote a regular series of columns for the newsroom called “Best Practices.” In digging through my archives, I’ve found several that are timeless that I will gradually repost. This first one was written by Jonathan Maslow, and his tips for being transparent in our reporting and writing continue to ring true.
1) Don’t use hearsay. Don’t describe things you didn’t see, but rather attribute it to a firsthand witness and tell the reader who that witness was. If you are writing about a public meeting you did not attend, be aware that readers must not be given a false impression. You don’t need to say you weren’t there. But you can’t report things as if you were there.
Transparency is a habit, a muscle. Flex it and it gets stronger. And your work gets more accurate, better, more useful to readers.
Bolstering transparency in our reporting was published on June 24, 2012 by Tom Meagher.

Chris brought this to the customer attention and knew it had to be replaced immediately. This was something Chris knew he could take care of right away, due to him coming out with a fully stocked truck. Chris made simple work out of it and made the necessary repairs.
A new customer in Florham Park, NJ called Pipe Works Services on a Saturday. They had a leak from a pipe in a closet. Our technician, Pedro, was on the scene and diagnosed the issue. A hole had occurred in the cold main water pipe near the water meter. Pedro replaced a partial section of the pipe with high quality copper piping, fittings, and a new valve for the hose bib. Now, no more leak!
If I could get a price for an energy audit. Our new to us 1940s house probably leaks like a sieve. Thanks!
Need new whole house ac system estimate.
I need to relocate washer, gas dryer and sink to more convenient place in the basement. Could you make this job? Some sewerage work. Could you give me an estimate?
The toilet is clogged. Used a 3ft snake numerous times. Which is the only way it will flush.
Have a crawl space that needs to be insulted and need to look at the whole house from the heating and insulation point.
We have a stopped-up bathtub drain that could not be cleared with a plunger. It is not an emergency, but if someone could come tomorrow (Monday 9/19) that would be great. Thanks!
I am in the process of selling my house and as a result of the home inspection, the buyer is asking me to fix some items: 1. sump pump discharge pipe appears to be missing a check valve. 2. The water heater flue pipe is not sealed where it enters the chimney - seal vent penetration into wall/chimney Please let me know if you can provide a quote so that I can decide on what I will fix. Thank you.
I am writing this letter to make you aware of the absolute gem you have working for you. His name is Kevin Jensen.

The customer had an old HVAC unit that was beyond repair and he purchased an Armstrong unti to replace it. The technician installed a coil, condenser lineset, and EZ-Trap for Ac drains. The they ran a lineset through garage and strapped it against the wall. They took out the old wall mount condenser and sealed the hole with silver glow and foam. The next step was to apply Nitro, vacuum, and charged lineset. The technicians dug a trench to bury lineset and electrical. Sealed all of the holes and connections.
Pipe Works Services removed a bush that was necessary for the installation of the the condenser. Pipe Works Services also installed the electricity and the line set through the foundation of the building and ran it through the basement to the furnace/air handler.
A previous customer in Florham Park, NJ had a sewer backing up into the basement. Our Pipe Works technicians Richard and Alan performed the drain cleaning. Both technicians decided to perform a video camera inspection of the main line. One of our senior plumbing technicians, Jonny, video inspected the line and saw a lot of debris in the pipe, so a hydro scour of the line was recommended. The customer chose to do the hydro scouring, and our technicians - Jonny, Nick, Malik, Washington, and Pedro - excavated approximately 6.5 feet deep to expose the 4 inch main sewer line. Once this was done, Pipe Works Services cut open the main sewer line and hydro scoured it. They performed a final video camera inspection to ensure proper flow and drainage. We also installed a 2 way clean out for future access.
The tub faucet in my shower room is leaking and the water is dripping through the ceiling to the kitchen downstairs. Now I put a big bucket to hold the leaking water, no more water comes from the ceiling.
My daughter's bedroom has a draft that originates from either the garage or the crawl space.
Would like an estimate to install a bathroom vanity.

Previous Article Let's all share the road please!
Being thrown under the bus is not something that gives me sleepless nights or undue worry.
I harbour no illusions or expectations that when faced with trouble there are very few who will stand by your side when you are under heavy enemy fire.
It's part of leadership - taking one for the team - is a motto I live by, even though at times taking one for the team is no insurance that you will have company when the difficult decisions have to be made.
In reality, many of the things we think that are hard facts aren't. They are half-truths, they are assumptions, they are misinterpretations, they are based on biases and at times deliberate and wilful plausible denial.
Like plenty of other things in our lives, we fail to act or procrastinate because our uncertainty comes from fear of being judged by others. We are afraid of what the group - the tribe - will think and the prospect of being criticised.
Greek philosopher Epictetus once said: "If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid."
Theodore Roosevelt made the point thus when he declared: "In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worse thing you can do is nothing."
Recently faced with a difficult situation that required a series of decisions, I reflected on the words of Roman historian Tacitus: "The desire for safety stands against every great and noble enterprise."
Over time life reveals to us that any time you are working to achieve something, you are going against the current. The people around you will say you can't do it, you are making a mistake, its impossible, you will fail. The more out-of-the-box your idea may be, the stronger the pushback.
People will always seek to make you question the journey but it's important to transcend the obstacles.
If you think about all of the things that have been created in human history that were once considered "impossible". Carl Jung's advice that: "You are what you do, not what you say you will do", can be inspirational.
T&T, Team TTO can achieve much more than we have done but we will continue to underachieve if we allow the fear of failure and uncertainty to guide our thoughts and actions.
Ten (10) or more Olympic gold medals by the year 2020, future is female, gender equality, creating a sustainable billion-dollar sports industry T&T by 2030, having a world-class national long-term athlete development programme, a governance culture that is best practice are all impossibles that can be possible.

New Delhi: A group of students from Arunachal Pradesh called on the Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER), MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr Jitendra Singh here today.
Addressing the students, Dr Jitendra Singh said that North East is on the priority of the Government led by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. Highlighting various initiatives for the North East India, he said that Government has taken various steps to promote the rail, road and air connectivity in North East. He said that construction of new airport at Itanagar will begin soon. He also said that the second Film and Training Institute of India (FTII) will be set up in Arunachal Pradesh, the first being in Pune, Maharashtra. He also said that region-based road development scheme for NE region namely “North-East Road Sector Development Scheme” (NERSDS) has also been started for maintenance, construction and upgradation of such roads, which remain neglected because of being interconnecting roads between two States as a result of which they remain un-owned and had thus gained the dubious distinction of being described as “orphan roads”.
The Minister said that priority is also being given to promote tourism in the North eastern states. Speaking on the ‘Act East Policy’ of the Government, he said that North East region shares similarity with neighbouring countries in terms of culture, lifestyle and food habits. He said that, keeping this fact in mind, the NE states should focus on manufacturing such products that will find market in these places and promote trade in North eastern states.
Highlighting various youth-centric initiatives taken by the Ministry of Development of North East Region (DoNER), the Minister said that foundation stone has been laid for the Barak hostel for students from North East in the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus in Delhi and a Hostel exclusively for Northeast girl students in Bengaluru. He said that a North Eastern Cultural and Information Centre will soon be set up in Dwarka, New Delhi.
On the occasion, the Arunachal Pradesh youth also gifted Dr Jitendra Singh clay idols made by them on the lines of ‘Make in India’ programme of Government of India. The Minister congratulated the youth for this unique initiative of promoting indigenous manufacturing and promoting ‘Make in India’ flagship programme of the Government which aims at providing employment opportunities to youth of the country. He also appealed to the youth to make efforts in the direction of indigenous manufacturing that will help boost economy and provide them employability.

Last Saturday when Jeremy made chili for our pumpkin carving party I was looking for a vegan cornbread recipe to compliment his delicious chili.
While I love oil-free cooking, I’m still convincing myself when it comes to oil-free baking. Granted I’ve made some delicious cakes but there have also been cookies that don’t seem like cookies and breads that are gooey and not right in the middle; I blame that on being oil-free.
So when I followed google’s first search result for vegan cornbread to Isa Chandra’s Post Punk Kitchen and found a minimal amount of oil in the recipe, I was A-Okay about it.
The recipe also made a cake pan’s (9×13) worth of cornbread versus the usual 8×8 square pan. Perfect for a gathering (upcoming holidays – hint hint) or when you also enjoy cornbread for dessert with a little maple syrup.
It was delicious and the knife slid right through. The texture is perfect. It’s been awhile but it reminded me of the Jiffy cornbread I grew up with.
So have at it. Go make this cornbread. All of our guests loved it too.
Your pan might just look like this.
Oh and I almost forgot. Happy Halloween!!!
This is from the last time we carved pumpkins in 2006.
Do you like sweet syrups with your cornbread? I used to LOVE love love dark karo syrup on cornbread, corn muffins, and pancakes growing up. Pure corn syrup. What’s that? 😉 Thankfully maple syrup stands in perfectly.
I’m gonna try this corn bread. Thanks!

Bandai Namco is bringing their World Trigger: Smash Borders smartphone game to the Vita too, apparently.
Coming at us Vita owners with a pure port (no major gameplay changes apparently), World Trigger: Smash Borders has you sending out units to take on Trion soldiers – protecting the Border headquarters. Good aim and a mind for tactical approach will go a long way here, and will have bearing on how battles play out.
No word yet on when exactly this one will make an appearance on Vita, but seeing as how it’s keeping the original gameplay style it’ll probably be free-to-play when it does.
