"This is my second time using tinyprints and I love their products. The set-up was easy, the design options are just beautiful and it is very hassle free. I did not think the photo came out very crisp but I also used a photo off my iphone and not something from a professional so that could have been part of the issue. Still I would recommend this company to friends or family."
"The card came out as expected! I love every detail on it including the way the picture came out, the font of the writings, the nice border with the matching envelope, and I got to choose all of these. Everyone who got the invitation loved it! This is the best invitation card I have ever seen...simple yet very charming!"
"This invite is elegant and beautiful - I am pleased with the final product. I did have some issues along the way though. This order came but was not to the standards I expect. The invites did not fit in the envelopes sent with them, and the invites themselves were cut in a way that the left margin was noticeably smaller than the right. I called and the order was fixed and sent out right away - I received the right envelopes this time and the invites looked wonderful. My expectation is that the cards would have been looked over and tested to make sure they fit in the envelopes, especially for the price point."
"I ordered this card because it features large picture of my choice. I chose o picture of my daughter with communion head piece on. It is in sepia. I think the whole card turned out great, very elegant. I had to play a little with fonts to fit all the info I wanted to include on the card. I think it's a great product. Paper is of good quality, striped back adds to overall finished look. Service and delivery was fast and effortless ."
"It was easy to personalize. I love the faded look of the photo on the paper. The thickness of the paper is just what I wanted. The only thing tat was a bit confusing is when typing everything was lower case I did not realize it was going to be all caps which is fine. But I went and capitalized everything in the correct spots... being confused why it was not caped..LOL I have not sent them as I got them very early for a First Communion, but my mom thought they were great. She did have a bit of a time reading it I think it was the size of the type set, but love them. Thanks so much!!"

Taking care of a pet is not an easy task that should be treated lightly, and those who have a canine companion already know this. It’s true there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing love and happiness reflected in your dog’s eyes, but, as an owner, you have to earn this by making sure your pet is well fed, healthy, and has everything his heart desires. This is why “The Complete Holistic Dog Book” should be a must-read for anyone who owns a dog.

No matter if you own a pup or an older dog, this book will offer you the answers to any question you may have regarding his health and development. The authors discuss natural preventive health, nutrition, environmental safety, and the importance of early socialization. If you have a puppy, then you must know that he needs to be exposed to different people, dogs and places in order to learn good manners and how to behave properly when you take him with you. Thus, you will never feel insecure about carrying him around, because he will feel confident enough around new people and animals.
“The Complete Holistic Dog Book” will even help you identify the health problems your canine companion might be suffering of.

Thus, you can choose what you think is best for your dog, or try more solutions until you find the right one. All of them are based on the application of alternative therapies and allopathic medicine, so there are no chances for these methods to hurt your dog. The authors have also introduced an easy-to-use 80-page Materia Medica that covers nutritional supplements, herbs and homeopathic remedies. The clear, professionally drawn illustrations will also help you understand a dog’s body and the way it works.
“The Complete Holistic Dog Book” also includes practical, easy tips for taking care of an older dog. Besides making sure that he is healthy and eats properly, you’ll see that it’s also important to make his life as comfortable and pleasant as possible by buying him a softer bed, or getting him toys that would make him happy.
One thing is for sure: this book truly is complete, and you may never need another one to help you take care of your beloved pet.

Company Will Provide Mitsubishi Regional Jet APU Inlet And
Hartzell Aerospace has been awarded
a long term contract by LMI Aerospace to design and supply the APU
inlet and exhaust components for the Mitsubishi Regional Jet (MRJ),
expected to enter into service in 2014.
Hartzell Aerospace said Tuesday in a news release that it will
be responsible for the component design from the joint development
phase, through to aircraft certification and product support, and
has been working with the LMI/MRJ team members for almost a year.
Hartzell Aerospace will provide the engineering required to meet
the program schedule and expectations including: design, analysis,
testing, certification support, and tool design. Design and
manufacturing will be supplied by AcousticFab, LLC in Sanford
The APU inlet and exhaust are critical components of the tail
cone assembly awarded to LMI. Hartzell-designed inlet systems
provide noise attenuated, flow balanced air to the APU. Properly
profiled exhaust nozzles and systems dissipate hot exhaust gas,
while optimizing sound reduction to ensure the lowest possible ramp
noise at aircraft service locations. The inlet and exhaust will
include noise attenuation treatment to meet the noise requirements
of the International Civil Aviation Organization's (ICAO) noise
management. To meet this requirement, Hartzell Aerospace is using
its proprietary noise treatment material, Acousti-Flo 2.2.
"This is the third major program award for Hartzell Aerospace in
the last six months," said Simon Shackelton, vice president of
sales and marketing for Hartzell Aerospace. "With two new
design-build programs for APU inlets and exhausts, we are placing
ourselves in a great position to be the preeminent supplier of APU
kits for future programs. Our technical strength and total value is
very evident to our customers."
Hartzell Aerospace's sound attenuation technology is used in a
variety of APU and ECS applications for transport and business jet
aircraft including: Boeing 787, Bombardier Q400, Comac ARJ 21,
Embraer 135/145, Embraer 170/190, Hawker 4000, Hawker 900XP.

The No. 18 Arizona State Sun Devils and the Utah Utes are set to square off in a Pac-12 matchup at 10 p.m. ET on Saturday, October 16 at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Utah is 3-2 overall and 2-0 at home, while the Sun Devils are 5-1 overall and 1-1 on the road. ASU is 3-3 against the spread and Utah is 1-4 ATS in 2021.
Arizona State i favored by one point in the latest Utah vs. Arizona State odds from Caesars Sportsbook, and the over-under is set at 51. Before entering any Arizona State vs. Utah picks, you need to see the college football predictions from the computer simulation model at SportsLine.
The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every FBS college football game 10,000 times. Over the past five-plus years, the proprietary computer model has generated a stunning profit of almost $3,800 for $100 players on its top-rated college football picks against the spread. It also enters Week 7 of the 2021 season on a 19-7 run on all top-rated college football side picks. Anyone who has followed it has seen huge returns.
Now, the model has set its sights on Utah vs. Arizona State and just revealed its coveted picks and analysis. You can head to SportsLine now to see the model's picks. Here are several college football odds and betting lines for Utah vs. Arizona State:
- Utah vs. Arizona State spread: Utah +1
- Utah vs. Arizona State over-under: 51 points
- Utah vs. Arizona State moneyline: Utah -110, Arizona State -110
What you need to know about Utah
Utah came away with an impressive road win over the USC on Saturday, outscoring the Trojans 42-26. QB Cameron Rising had a stellar game for the Utes, passing for 306 yards and three touchdowns in addition to scoring a rushing touchdown.
On Saturday night, Rising will have his work cut out for him against an Arizona State defense that is among the best in the country. If the Utes can get their rushing attack going early and keep the ASU defense off balance, they will have a good chance at walking away with a win in this critical Pac-12 South matchup.
What you need to know about Arizona State
Arizona State dominated Stanford last week, winning 28-10 at home. ASU can attribute much of their success to QB Jayden Daniels, who accumulated 175 passing yards in addition to rushing for one TD and 76 yards, and RB Rachaad White, who punched in one rushing touchdown. That touchdown -- a 51-yard rush in the first quarter -- was one of the highlights of the contest.
With a win against Utah, Arizona State has a chance to separate themselves from the pack in the Pac-12 South and make a serious run at their first Rose Bowl berth since 1996. The Sun Devils lead the all-time series against the Utes 22-9.
How to make Arizona State vs. Utah picks

You may be a pet person. You’ve had a dog or a cat for a pet, and maybe several of each. But now you’re a bird owner. Wow! This is a different kind of pet. Here are some of the things that make companion birds interesting, and things that make them different from dogs and cats.
Prey vs. Predator
Dogs and cats are predators, while birds are prey species. You can see this by looking at eye locations. Predators have eyes facing forward, while prey species, whose lives may depend on seeing a predator coming, have eyes on the sides of their head.
So our parrot companions have a much larger field of vision than we do. They can see almost all the way around themselves and can move their eye in its socket to see even better. They also have a higher resolution throughout that field of vision compared to people. Our vision is concentrated in the center of our field of vision. Besides that, birds can turn their heads around up to 180 degrees to look for danger. Don’t even attempt that yourself!
Behavior Note: Building trust with a companion animal is always important, but especially so when you are working with a prey animal like a bird. If your companion bird is a little shy, try approaching it with your head to the side, so he sees just one of your eyes. That’s less like a predator. And do not leave your predator dog or cat pets alone with your prey-animal bird. If the bird is being stalked, move him or provide him with a curtain of toys, a piece of plywood, or some other way to be out of the line of vision of a predatory species with which he shares the house.
Unlike dogs and cats, parrots generally cannot be neutered due to the location of their vital organs. There are times of the year when their hormones rage. In these times they can be aggressive and territorial and a female bird could start to lay eggs. Birds might mate with or “incubate” a toy, defend their cage as though it’s a nest, and be unpredictable in their biting behavior. Bird owners need to be understanding about this. It’s most likely to happen in the spring or fall. Sometimes it seems to be all of the time. Some birds become hormonal when daylight hours are lengthened. This happens artificially if we watch movies past sunset, or stay up with lights on in the area where a bird is.
Behavior Note: If your bird is excessively hormonal, try covering the cage so that he or she gets only 10 to 12 hours of daylight each day. If that doesn’t work, consider having a separate sleep cage for you bird or birds that is in a dimly lit, quiet room of the house. Move your bird there so that he or she spends 12 hours in the dark and quiet and gets a good nights rest, without lengthened days that stimulate hormones.
Some of the signs that a bird is becoming broody include excessive chewing and looking for a dark place to nest. Female birds may feel heavy – they store calcium in their leg bones preparatory to laying eggs. It’s also normal for a broody bird (especially female budgies, both sexes of cockatiels) to withhold feces overnight, and evacuating one large, smelly dropping in the morning. That’s how a parrot keeps the nest clean.
Behavior may include lunging at you to defend the cage or other “nesting” area. There will be lots of vocalizing. Males try to impress the females with their vocalizations, and some birds will call loudly, trying to get a mate to answer. The bright side? These behaviors don’t last long. Put up with them for a couple weeks or a couple months and you and your bird will be back to normal.
Living With No Teeth
It’s obvious that our companion birds do not have teeth. Both dogs and cats do. Parrot beaks are appropriate for cracking seeds, and for applying pressure to a hard nut in order to crack the shell. Another term for the parrot family is “hookbills,” which refers to the hooded shape of their upper beak. Parrots do a fair job at chewing up wood and anything else in their path. Beaks can be used for defense as well, though most birds will try to communicate displeasure or avoid trouble before resorting to biting.
Behavior Note: In order not to be bitten, be observant of your pet bird and his moods, as well as the season. Don’t frighten a bird by moving suddenly, and if you see aggression or fear (hissing noise, stepping back and away, flying away, pinning eyes, flaring tail feathers) don’t push your bird. Learn to tempt your bird with treats or act in a non-threatening way to gain your parrot’s trust.
Built for Flight
Our companion birds are lighter than dogs or cats. We appreciate that when they perch on our fingers! Birds attain this with hollow bones and a lightweight outer covering of feathers built to trap pockets of air and insulate their bodies. We appreciate them again when we don a down jacket, of lightweight but insulating feathers.
Parrots see in color (again, unlike dogs and cats) and can even see colors in the UV spectrum, beyond what people can see. It’s possible that some of your outfits fluoresce to these birds.
Behavior Note: if your birds are flighty when they see you, for no particular reason, note what you are wearing. I find my flock shies away from me when I wear purple. To me it’s purple, to them it could be glowing and menacing.
Has anyone mentioned that you will lose your heart to your companion bird? That you’ll know quickly why people become so attached to their pet birds? The personality and love and curiosity in our small, feathered friends are beyond description. There’s no explanation how that happens, but it does for many of us.

Polio is a highly contagious virus that can cause paralysis and even death in young children. The Polio vaccine is one of the most successful public health interventions of all time, having saved millions of lives around the world. It has been used since 1955 and has been instrumental in eradicating polio from many countries.
The Polio vaccine works by introducing a weakened form of the virus into the body, which stimulates an immune response without causing disease. This means that when a person is exposed to wild polio virus, their immune system will recognize it and be able to fight it off before it causes any harm. Vaccination against polio is safe and effective, with only minor side effects such as soreness at the injection site being reported.
The Polio vaccine has been instrumental in reducing cases of polio to near-zero levels in many countries, including the United States where there have been no cases since 1979. Despite this success, there are still pockets of infection around the world where vaccination rates remain

Highly stable polysulfone anion exchange membranes incorporated with bulky alkyl substituted guanidinium cations†
A series of guanidinium-based cations with various N-substituted groups (methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, cyclobutyl, benzyl and phenyl) were synthesized and their alkaline stabilities were evaluated by 1H NMR analysis. The results indicated that the contribution of the substituent group toward the stability followed the sequences: isopropyl > ethyl > benzyl > phenyl and ethyl > methyl > cyclobutyl. The relative stability sequences suggested that free and bulky alkyl substituent groups with large steric hindrance can dramatically improve the alkaline stability. Tetraethyl-benzyl-isopropyl guanidinium showed the highest alkaline stability which remained unchanged after treatment with 1 mol L−1 KOH/CD3OD at 60 °C for 312 h. Novel polysulfone anion exchange membranes (AEMs) with such stable guanidinium cations were prepared via iridium-catalyzed C–H activation and the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction. The obtained guanidinium functionalized AEM exhibited excellent resistance to alkaline solutions (after immersing in 1 mol L−1 NaOH at 60 °C for 30 days, no degradation was observed), indicating that AEMs functionalized by guanidiniums with large steric hindrance are very promising materials for AEM applications.

Kyle Clifford LW LA 26 Days
Kyle Clifford (head) did not practice on Sunday.
Clifford was injured in the first period Saturday and did not return after 'getting his bell rung' according to coach Darryl Sutter. He will likely miss at least Tuesday's game against the Sabres and if he can't go, look for the Kings to recall a forward, possibly Tanner Pearson.
Kyle Clifford LW LA 27 Days
Kyle Clifford was injured in the first period Saturday and did not return.
Coach Darryl Sutter said that Clifford 'got his bell rung'. Consider him day-to-day for now. Clifford had one goal in 16 games with 32 penalty minutes. Look elsewhere in the penalty minute category if Clifford was on your roster.
Kyle Clifford LW LA 1 Month
Kyle Clifford has been fined by the NHL for a kneeing incident against Edmonton's Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on Sunday.
He was slapped with a $2,756.41 fine, which is the maximum that is allowed under the CBA. There was no penalty assessed on the play and Nugent-Hopkins managed to return to the game.
Kyle Clifford LW LA 4 Months
The Kings and Kyle Clifford agreed to a two-year contract, a source to the situation told Mayor's Manor.
Clifford was a restricted free agent this summer and the two-year deal appears to fall in line with most of Dean Lombardi's RFA contract. Clifford scored seven goals and 14 points in 48 games this season, each of which matched his career highs set in 2010-11. He's not worth drafting in most fantasy formats but is a solid role player for L.A.
Kyle Clifford LW LA 6 Months
Kyle Clifford admitted that winning on Tuesday was a bit of a "sigh of relief" moment.
"Yeah, definitely," Clifford said. "I think we knew it was going to be a big game tomorrow. It was one of those must wins. Kind of get the ball rolling for us. We know we got a little bit better and getting ready for tomorrow night." The Kings will attempt to ride that momentum into Game 4 on Thursday. Chicago still has a 2-1 series lead.
Kyle Clifford LW LA 7 Months
Kyle Clifford recorded his first point of the postseason on Thursday.
Clifford was moved to the top line to help spark Anze Kopitar and Justin Williams. The move worked as the three combined for the first goal in the Kings' 3-0 victory. It wouldn't be surprising to see Clifford back on the top line for Game 6 on Sunday.

Switch up your version of a beach escape with a visit one of these eight incredible lakes — with calm waters and fewer crowds, these vacation spots pack more of a punch than their quiet profile would suggest.
Despite its proximity to the Alps, the weather in Lake Geneva is surprisingly moderate, and swimming is an extremely popular activity during the summer. For proof, look no further than the hundred or so public beaches ringing the lake, such as Geneve Plage (which also boasts swimming pools and slides) or family-friendly Baby Plage.
But if you’d prefer to stay dry, take a pleasure cruise on a charming paddle steamer. These elegant Belle Époque boats have been crisscrossing the lake for more than 100 years, and just like the lakeside Grand Hotel Suisse Majestic, Autograph Collection in Montreux, represent of the era’s opulence and optimism.
If dining well with a water view is a priority, plan a meal at Fiskebar in The Ritz-Carlton Hotel de la Paix, the first restaurant in Geneva to serve Nordic-fusion cuisine. Savor Scandinavian-inspired dishes like pickled, salted and smoked raw fish, or confit beef cheek with a sparkling lake vista beyond the window.
After dinner, sip a signature cocktail at FRED by Fiskebar; the menu’s eight imaginative cocktails combine artistry with narratives inspired by Norsk lore and Scandi heritage.
Part of the Great Rift Valley, Lake Malawi is one of the world’s oldest and deepest lakes, plunging well below sea level at points.
While this calm, clear and warm body of water offers an abundance of water sports and activities, from kayaking to sailing, your best bet is to head underwater: The lake is home to some 850 species of colorful cichlids and mesmerizing rock formations.
Even the most basic snorkeling gear yields good results, particularly at the Lake Malawi National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but there are also a number of dive schools along the lakeshore.
Lake Bled’s blue-green waters are effortlessly charming: The compact lake is surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks, with Slovenia’s oldest castle perched above its shore and the country’s only natural island — punctuated by a church’s picturesque bell tower — at its center.
Thermal springs warm the lake’s crystalline water to swimmable temperatures between June and August, while it’s also popular to pick up paddles and explore by rowboat or stand-up paddleboard (SUP). Prefer to stay dry? The lake’s 3.7-mile (6-kilometer) shoreline makes for a lovely stroll.
For a meditative experience, board a pletna, a traditional flat-bottomed boat reminiscent of a Venetian gondola, to visit the island. If an adrenaline rush is what you’re after, sign up for canyoning or rafting in one of the nearby rivers.
Lake Como’s pristine natural beauty and mountain-lined shores have attracted visitors for centuries, yet this Northern Italian lake still retains an air of exclusivity, in part because of the luxurious villas and charming lakeside villages dotting its coast.
Como may be the lake’s best-known town; however, it’s worth exploring the scenic villages, like Bellagio, better known as “the pearl of Lake Como.” Stroll the town’s waterfront promenade toward Villa Melzi and its manicured gardens. Later, meander along Bellagio’s stone lanes and stairways. Then cool off with a gelato at one of the town’s many cafés.
Of course, the best way to really enjoy Lake Como is to actually get on Lake Como — and the best way to appreciate the jaw-dropping villas lining the lake, as well as the steep mountains that serve as their backdrop, is by private boat — or if a rental is beyond your budget, by local ferry.
For more-active travelers, windsurfing and kitesurfing are popular on the northern part of the lake where the wind always seems to blow.
At 23 miles long, a mere mile and a half wide, and deeper than the North Sea, Loch Ness has long held allure for travelers. Of course, everyone knows the myth about “Nessie,” the purported Loch Ness monster; and yes, the centuries-old legend certainly draws visitors to this chilly, narrow loch wedged between Inverness and Fort Augustus.
But even more rewarding than monster-spotting is soaking up the natural beauty and romance of the Scottish Highlands that surround the lake on a boat tour: The crumbling Urquhart Castle, set against undulating green hills, makes for a striking sight.
Don’t forget to bring binoculars. While you likely won’t spy Nessie, wildlife abounds here, and it’s possible to spot golden eagles, pine martens and even otters during the boat ride.
The magnificent scenery can also be enjoyed while walking or cycling the Loch Ness 360° Trail, which loops around the entire circumference of Loch Ness.
Lake Victoria may be grand — it’s the largest lake in Africa and the second-largest freshwater lake in the world — but the pleasures it offers are simple: It’s a place to relax and unwind.
Tucked between Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya, the lake sprawls an astonishing 26,600 square feet (68,000 square kilometers), and within its confines lie two major sights: Rubondo Island National Park, which is the largest island park in Africa, and the Ssese Islands archipelago.
Explore them on a boat tour, and keep an eye out for fishing villages of the Luo tribe marking the shore.
After a day spent fishing (more than 200 species call the lake home) or birding along the shoreline, which is home to a number of rare species, continue to luxuriate in the slow life at a dreamy lodge on one of the lake’s islands or at Protea Hotel Entebbe, an elegant lakeside resort outside Kampala.
An enormous salt lake, Tuz Golu in central Türkiye looks otherworldly — literally. In the spring, the shallow water has traditionally turned pink, deepening to a Mars-like red as rainfall decreases (and salinity subsequently increases) in May, June and July.
The algae behind this color change feed colonies of flamingos, and in the winter, the lake is one of the major wintering habitats for migratory birds, making it ideal for birding.
The lake can be reached via day trip from Cappadocia, where you’ll also find Göreme National Park, a mesmerizing landscape of prehistoric rock formations, inhabited as early as the fourth century, with 10th- through 13th-century towns and churches carved into its caves.
An important source of clean water in Finland, Lake Paijanne is famous for its eskers, glacial landforms shaped in the last ice age. These long, narrow and sandy islands, replete with isolated lagoons, are ideal spots for placid beach days. Päijänne lies within the Finnish Lakeland, a labyrinthine landscape of lakes, islands, rivers and canals. Stand-up paddleboarding and boating (via sailboat, motorboat and canoe) are popular summer activities, while in the winter, tour operators offer ice fishing and even snowmobiling on the frozen lake.Plan a visit to Päijänne National Park, in the southern part of the lake, which is composed of more than 50 tiny islands, including the must-visit esker, Kelvenne. Here, you’ll be able to walk the circumference of the island along a 5.5-mile (9-kilometer) hiking trail.

When we talk about sublimation printing, or anything related to sublimation, it might sound very complex and technical process. But actually, it’s a very unpretentious and simple process.
can you sublimate on canvas:
When solid material directly turns into a gaseous form without going through a liquid phase.
If we look at the canvas sublimation, it is the process of sublimating your desired image on a canvas by using your regular heat press setting (380-420° F). We stretch the canvas on stretcher bars. In the end, a vibrant and attractive canvas print is generated. The same process is used to get personalized images.
Materials you need for Canvas sublimation:
There are the following required tools that you will need for this process.
1. Sublimation Printer:
If we look back a few years, this type of printer was very expensive due to the newness of the technology. But with passing years, the demand for this process is increasing day by day. Hence, the prices have reduced significantly. A few famous sublimation printer brands are Epson, Sawgrass, and Mutoh.
2. Sublimation Paper:
The question is, “can you use any paper as a sublimation paper?”. The answer is yes, you can. But the problem is, the results will not be good. Regular paper is not a good carrier of the sublimation ink.
The most important thing to keep in mind is, the higher the ink limit, the heavier the paper should be to accept moisture from the ink.
3. Sublimation Ink:
The true definition of sublimating ink is based on the dye which is being used in this process. The higher temperature allows the ink to follow the sublimation process without cracking or migrating. Because then it becomes the essential part of the print, which does not fade away with time.
The difference between regular ink and sublimating ink is that it does not smudge and lasts longer than other inks.
4. Canvas Blanks:
Polyester materials are the best and ideal substrate for transferring your design. It provides you with the best quality design. 100% cotton blanks are not recommended because the design won’t be permanent and will wash off.
5. Computer and RIP Software:
Raster image processer is a software that is used to set up the sublimation printing. This software is not provided along with the package and is needed to be purchased separately.
6. Cutting Mechanism:
During sublimating process, a cutting device is needed, either it is a knife or a blade. For example, while creating fabric items, i.e., t-shirts, cushions, etc.
7. Heat Press Machine:
Its main function is to transfer the design from sublimation paper to the substrate (cushion, t-shirt, mugs, roaster). This process will create a good image that will be resistant to fading.
- Mini Heat Press.
- Calender Heat Press.
- Flatted Heat Press.
- 3-D Vacuum Heat Press.
Canvas Sublimation Printing Process:
so what about our question “can you sublimate on canvas” As I have mentioned earlier, Dye-sublimation printing is when a solid material directly turns into a gaseous form without going through a liquid phase.
But how does sublimation printing work? The following steps are included in it.
- Once you have chosen your design, you will use a sublimation printer to transfer your design on a sublimation paper.
- By using a heat press, the design will transfer from paper to your required substrate.
- You will have to use good paper and high heat so that the design remains vibrant and does not wash off.
Best 4 Places to Buy Canvas Sublimation Blanks:
This brand does not need any introduction. We will find it in any big country all over the world. It provides some of the best quality products like sublimation ink, printer, blanks, mugs, and others. While purchasing from Amazon, the plus point is that it provides you with a safe transaction method and no question asked return policy.
It’s an e-commerce company. It has almost everything when it comes to sublimation. When we talk about blanks, Etsy has more than 16,000 products, and it costs 9.34$ per blank on average.
3. HeatPress Nation:
It is the best shop when it comes to buying sublimation blanks. They provide you with the best items at reasonable prices. This site offers you full safety and privacy on every payment step.
It is a Barcelona-based company. It provides you with sublimation blanks, mugs, printer ink, and other related products.
Tips to improve Fabric Sublimation printing:
- Use RIP installed computer to have a perfect size printed pattern.
- Use a good dye and high temperature to transfer the design on fabric. So that it would be long-lasting.
- Always use a sublimation paper instead of a regular paper.
- Check the heat press temperature.
- Always check the moisture.
- Secure your product to the piece.
- Read the instructions before using any product.
- Adjust your design to fit the abstract you are going to print.
- Sublimation printing is done first, and then sewing is done. So, keep your design a little bit random from the edge to save yourself from an awkward situation.
- Learn to understand your customer’s demands, requirements, and other things they are looking for. This will provide you with the highest ratings in your niche.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Glass, ceramic, special plastics, polyester fabric, and wood are few substrates used in sublimation printing.
You can do sublimation printing on cotton fabric, but the results will not be good and long-lasting. But sublimation on polyester will have vibrant colors. It will not wash off because sublimation ink sticks better to the polyester fabric.
For beginners, all you need is a sublimation printer, a good heat-press, computer, and a designing table.
Yes, if you want your prints to be the best, you will need to use a compatible sublimation paper.
It is not possible because white sublimation ink is unavailable.
Yes, Sublimation on canvas material is awesome! If you removed the frame to sublimate, be sure to reassemble it with double-sided tape or hot glue. Trim off any excess materials that are sticking out of your new masterpiece after assembly.
Polyester canvas is used for sublimation.
Because sublimation relies on the property of polyester to release acetate under high heat, an inexpensive common fabric like polyester is great for this because it raises its temperature quickly and efficiently to be suitable for the process without burning the material at all.
The increasing demand for personalized work has given this business and boom, and you cannot ignore the importance of this technology.
It might be expensive compared to other technologies, but the images produced from it are long-lasting and vibrant.
Either you are looking for a piece of quality information or starting a sublimation business. This information should be helpful to you in either way.

Behind the Scenes: Choreographing the Epic Dance Battles in Step Up 3D
Discover the intricate work that goes into choreographing the electrifying dance battles in Step Up 3D. Uncover the behind-the-scenes process and the creativity it takes to bring these epic scenes to life.
January 18, 2024
Choreographing the Epic Dance Battles in Step Up 3D
The Art of Choreography
Choreographing dance battles for a film like Step Up 3D requires a high level of creativity and technical skill. How does the choreographer approach creating dynamic and memorable dance sequences for the movie?
Choreographing dance battles for Step Up 3D involves a meticulous process that begins with understanding the characters, setting, and overall theme of the film. The choreographer must craft movements and routines that not only showcase the dancers' abilities but also elevate the storyline. This requires a deep understanding of various dance styles, including hip-hop, breakdancing, and contemporary, to create a diverse and visually stunning experience for the audience. The choreographer also collaborates closely with the director and cinematographer to ensure that the dance sequences are captured in the most impactful way on camera.
The choreographer must also consider the unique abilities and strengths of the cast members and tailor the choreography to highlight their individual talents. This involves extensive rehearsals and fine-tuning of movements to ensure that each dancer shines in their respective roles. Additionally, the choreographer may draw inspiration from real-life dance battles and competitions, infusing authenticity and excitement into the sequences. Ultimately, choreographing the dance battles in Step Up 3D is a multi-faceted process that demands a blend of artistic vision, technical expertise, and collaboration with the entire filmmaking team.
Crafting Memorable Dance Routines
What are some key elements that make the dance battles in Step Up 3D memorable and impactful for the audience?
The dance battles in Step Up 3D are designed to leave a lasting impression on the audience through the incorporation of several key elements. Firstly, the choreography prioritizes storytelling through movement, effectively weaving the emotions and motivations of the characters into the dance sequences. This adds depth and resonance to the battles, allowing the audience to connect with the dancers on a deeper level.
Additionally, the use of innovative and visually arresting choreography sets the dance battles apart, with intricate footwork, acrobatic maneuvers, and synchronized group routines showcasing the exceptional skills of the dancers. The incorporation of various dance styles and music genres also adds diversity and energy to the battles, ensuring that each sequence offers a fresh and dynamic experience.
Moreover, the choreographer pays close attention to the spatial dynamics and staging of the dance battles, utilizing the environment to create visually striking compositions that captivate the audience. This attention to detail elevates the impact of the routines and ensures that they remain memorable long after the credits roll.
Technical Challenges and Innovations
What technical challenges did the choreographer face in choreographing the dance battles in Step Up 3D, and what innovative solutions were implemented to overcome them?
Choreographing the dance battles in Step Up 3D presented several technical challenges that required innovative solutions to achieve the desired impact on screen. One of the primary challenges was the incorporation of complex group choreography, as the film features large-scale dance battles involving multiple performers. This required meticulous coordination and rehearsal to ensure that each dancer seamlessly synchronized their movements while adding their unique flair to the routines.
Another technical challenge was integrating the use of 3D technology to enhance the visual experience of the dance battles. The choreographer had to consider how certain movements and staging would translate in a three-dimensional space, taking into account the depth and perspective offered by 3D cinematography. This meant experimenting with dynamic camera angles, depth of field, and spatial awareness to create an immersive and engrossing viewing experience for the audience.
Moreover, the choreographer had to work closely with the film's production design and special effects teams to ensure that the dance battles seamlessly integrated with the visual effects and set pieces. This involved creative problem-solving and a collaborative approach to maximize the impact of the choreography within the context of the film's overall visual style and narrative.
In conclusion, choreographing the dance battles in Step Up 3D required the choreographer to overcome technical challenges through creative innovation and collaboration, resulting in visually stunning and technically impressive sequences that resonate with audiences.

After Elon Musk‘s numerous attempts to “revitalize” Twitter (or rather sink it, depending on who you ask), the platform continues on its course. The social media platform is updating to provide us with new features, one of which seems to be heavily inspired by other social networks like WhatsApp or Telegram: voice messages.
The social media platform has globally launched a new feature that we predict will be widely used by everyone. Finally, we have voice notes available through direct messages, a feature that was extensively discussed back in 2021.
Fortunately, that’s not the only update we have. The platform has also expanded the time limit for videos, now allowing them to last up to two hours. It’s important to remember that prior to this update, Twitter only allowed the uploading of short videos, with a maximum duration of 60 seconds. And for now, it will remain the same for those who don’t subscribe: only Twitter Blue subscribers will be able to upload longer videos.
How do I use voice messages on Twitter?
If you’re feeling a bit lost and unsure how to use the new voice messages, here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Open any conversation on Twitter.
- Tap on the audio icon located to the right of the message box, as shown in the image.
- Start recording your message. Once you’re done, you can either send the voice note directly or delete it if you’re not satisfied. Please note that currently, this feature is only available through the Twitter mobile application, so you won’t be able to record voice messages using the web version.

Question 1: Summary
“Performance Load is the degree of mental and physical activity required to achieve a goal” (Lidwell, Holden & Butler, 2003). Performance load has an effect on the time required to do the job and as well as the amount of errors that are likely to occur which overall determines the chance of successfully accomplishing the goal desired. If there is a high performance load required then this would increase the amount of time required to be dedicated to the job, consequentially a knock on effect would occur and a same increase would happen regarding the chances of errors being made. Overall this would result as a decrease in successfully accomplishing the goal. The opposite effect would happen if the performance load was low, decrease the time needed and chances of errors finding an overall increase in the goal being achievable. The two forms of Performance Load are: Cognitive Load which involves the mental requirements such as memory, in particular the working memory and long term memory (Bozarth, 2010). Cognitive Load also includes perception and problem solving where as Kinematic Load involves the physical requirements such as number of steps or movements, the amount of force needed (Lidwell, Holden & Butler, 2003). Creating tasks to be easy and simple as possible will reduce the Kinematic Load reducing the amount of errors and increase the chances of completing the overall task.
- Bozarth, J. (August 3, 2010). Nuts and Bolts: Brain Bandwidth – Cognitive Load Theory and Instructional Design, from http://www.learningsolutionsmag.com/articles/498/nuts-and-bolts-brain-bandwidth—cognitive-load-theory-and-instructional-design
- Lidwell, W., Holden, K., & Butler, J. (2003). Performance Load. In Universal Principles of Design.
Question 2: Chunking
“Chunking is a strategy used to improve memory performance” (Anonymous, CA Software in Practice, 2012). Chunking involves putting pieces of information together in a way that is easier for you to remember. These Chunks of information should be small however the larger they are and the more you can remember, the better. Once you start using this technique and train your brain to remember more, the larger the chunks will become. “The chunking principle requires you to classify the items into groups to reduce information overload” (Anonymous, CA Software in Practice, 2012). In terms of chunking in relation to design and visual communication, less usually means more. By overloading material such as PowerPoint slides, websites and WebPages, brochures and hand outs, the most important information will result in confusion and unsuccessful communication. The information that you want to be remembered is lost in all the other information and noise going on within the design. Keep it simple by chunking the information that is relevant to one another together and then chunk it again into what really is important and what could be left out, ask yourself, will the individual who reads this be able to remember the information that I am trying to communicate?

Question 3: Psychology in Design
It’s important to have aspects within design that do incorporate and including psychological theories as having an understand of how the humans work, read things, interact with different mediums and media etc makes it easier for graphic designers to construct work and ideas which are easy for the user to utilize, it allows the designers to create communication and convey messages through their work knowing that what they are creating will engage with the audience due to the knowledge about Psychology they have. It’s almost like a cheat sheet in a way. For example, it has previously been tested that when we read, we focus on the first couple of words at the start of each sentence before skipping the rest of that sentence and moving onto the next. We scan material, not necessarily read through every word of that paragraph, so designers can use this information to their advantage. Psychology can assist designers to play on emotions, feelings and attitudes also.

Welsh broadband going faster
If the various BDUK projects have been given an impolite nudge by the DCMS in response to the scathing criticism from the Public Accounts Committee it is unlikely that the rush of announcements in the last few days are the result of that nudge, particularly given the time taken to get any type of press release approved in local Government.
The good news is that some 151 towns and villages across Wales are now set to benefit from the joint project between BT and the Welsh Government (with ERDF and Westminster funding too) with their roll-out expected to complete by the end of March 2015. These 151 areas represent some 206,000 homes and businesses, and combined with the previous announcements mean some 480,000 premises will have the option to access a fibre based broadband service by the end of Spring 2015.
This is only the start of the roll-out still, as while the amounts look large this takes Wales to around 75% availability of fibre broadband, and those getting superfast speeds will be a subset of that. When we look at data from our speed test across the whole of Wales it has the highest proportion of results at 2 Mbps or slower and the lowest proportion of tests that qualify as superfast, so clearly lots of work to be done.

With a target of 96% of Wales with access to a fibre based broadband service in 2016, there are obviously a lot more target areas to be announced, so well done if you are on todays list, but for the others more patience is needed.

Patrick Lacey keeps getting better! I read DREAM WOODS about two years ago. It is one of my favorites. If you haven't read it, then you really should. You should also read WE CAME BACK if you haven't. Both books are equally compelling and creepy. If you read them in that order you can see the progress–you can see Patrick Lacey honing his craft. He is one of the best horror authors of his generation, and he is just getting started.
With BONE SAW, Patrick Lacey takes different horror tropes and blends them nicely together, making it his own thing. The added layers and dimensions of the storyline made this one stand out. There are several things going on in this book, but the author manages it well. There are unforgettable characters with bloody scenes that pour from the pages.
BONE SAW is set in a small town called Bass Falls. The protagonist is a guy named Liam Carpenter who lives above his aunt's garage and watches obscure horror movies. He's all about cheap beer and thrills, but all that suddenly changes. His favorite director, Clive Sherman, arrives in town. Soon after Clive arrives, people are murdered. The murders look similar to the ones in Clive's popular Pigfoot franchise.
Blood and gore fill the pages. What's not to like? On top of all these things, Liam is crushing on a random girl. This random girl isn't so random after all, though. She is pursued by a private investigator that hallucinates on cough syrup. This is just one of the many layers of the story.
Bone Saw Studios is in town to shoot a Pigfoot sequel. It is going the be the bloodiest film in the series. Clive won't stop until the final cut.
BONE SAW is like an onion. You have to peel it back a layer at a time. The characters are great. They are three dimensional. The cast fits into stereotypes, but the author keeps things fresh. You can tell Patrick Lacey is well versed in slasher films.
Patrick Lacey sets the pace just right for this book. The characters all have depth, which is quite rare these days. The author manages to explore their backgrounds while keeping the story flowing smoothly.
This book reads like an 80s slasher. It also has elements of the psychological and paranormal. It reads like a movie. The scenes are vivid and gut-wrenching. If you have a weak stomach, then you probably shouldn't eat before reading this book. It had me wincing and biting my fingernails.
The author writes sharp prose. The dialogue is smart and witty. The ending is very satisfying as well.
I thought casting the characters for an adaptation would be fun. Here goes nothing. I think Joaquin Phoenix would make a great Clive. I think Pigfoot should be played by Pruitt Taylor Vince. Paul Dano or Donald Glover would make a great Liam. Tessa Thompson or Jessica Rothe could be the love interest. I don't know about you, but I would definitely watch that film!
This is one of Patrick Lacey's best. If you love slasher films, then you will love this book. Why wait to buy it when you could go ahead and pre-order?
5/5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lord of Water I – A Precious Water Planet
Chapter 17 – Slab
Slab filled his flight log robotically as another boring day passed waiting for the outer orbit to turn. Stuck with nineteen moronic dumbbells was the last thing in this universe that he needed for company. He had been a universal extractor with six successful missions into various universes, sucking life of various forms and then sneaking back through the wormholes to be home again with his dark beings.
This was his first journey into the water universe. All entry had been placed on hold since the past forces had so badly had their arses kicked back so many millions of years prior to now. But the balance of this evil and dark sector grew thirsty and had unbalanced to such a degree that aqua-anti-matter was vitally necessary to hold the dark universe in place.
Even dark being civilizations require their balances of the elements to sustain themselves. These beings had made a home of what is more like a giant kidney, pulling all filth in from the edges of the oh so many universes that surround them and then emanating a once again pure energy filtering through the various membrane walls back in, wide spread, but continual in quantity enough to balance the flow.
Slab and his ancestors for so long past had found refuge. Somehow a haven and universal center for those so strongly in agreement to death, destruction and pain for all others eternally. A home never imagined on the eve of the universe’s creation. Slab had now proven himself, without a doubt, as the elite of universal extractors able to ruthlessly, and without the slightest touch of emotion, ransack the planet and return with minerals, fluids and slaves to obey future orders of his missions to come. Six missions of perfect record is the top of the dark extractor elite making him the first selection for a long awaited entry into the water universe. Long awaited and very overdue.
Slab closed his log with the final words of his report of nazi looking symbols “INSKY BACKUNIBLAST SMACH AQUA ANTI. DISS KAR GIR MIG TI NI FA KU ZEN IST KAN KAN TAN……” . Translated to: “ALL WATER WILL DIE. ALL NINETEEN RIGS IN POSITION ON STANDBY FOR OUTER ORBIT. SEVEN DAYS TO COMMENCEMENT OF WATER CONVERSION. ALL WATER WILL DIE.”
Slab leaned back and enjoyed a little chat time with himself as he closed the log, one day closer to the death of a water planet.
“These groping, hopeless operators couldn’t suck a dummy if their mama’s butt cheek depended on it. I think after this successful mission I will demand some sweet bitch to accompany me while on standby for my next challenge. Can’t believe they have sat so long. Cowards of our history books. Finally they have me. The only one with enough balls to cut in and fry them all up once and for all.”
Slab took a slow glide at an even height along the line of his nineteen Rigs. All poised across the surface; ready to commence extraction. Seven days till execution commenced seemed to him like a light year away at this moment.

The Tesla Gigafactory 4 build site in Grunheide is now off-limits to local explorers as experts scan and clear the area for explosive ordnance.
“No Trespassing / Explosive Ordnance Clearance,” one of the signs in the forest reads in German. Tesla fan @Gf4Tesla who has been following the developments in Grunheide shared the news on Twitter. He added that he might resort to drone shots to update his followers about the latest GF4 news.
The Tesla board of directors recently approved the purchase agreement for the 300-hectare property where the first Tesla car factory in Europe will rise. This follows the approval of the Brandenburg Finance State Committee that sealed the deal for the purchase of the land for 40.91 million euros or about $45 million.
According to the spokesperson of the state government Florian Engels, Brandenburg authorities are still waiting for the independent report about the second appraisal of the expansive industrial property. Engels said that the report will be prepared as soon as possible and if the appraised value of the land deviates from the first assessment, the price of the Tesla GF4 property will be adjusted.
Okay, friends, the "Tesla Forest" is now – officially restricted area
I will have to specialize in flying drones, 🚁
because I am no longer allowed to enter the construction site..☹.
the sign means:
" no trespassing, / explosive ordnance clearance "🚨 pic.twitter.com/JyeqZCxRLW
— #Gf4 #Gigafactory4 (@Gf4Tesla) January 20, 2020
Sealing off the forest in Grunheide is a safety measure to avoid unwanted incidents as workers on the site have been building access roads for better logistics in the area. The team has also been searching for unexploded World War II explosives in the area, most likely American aviation bombs. In case vintage bombs are found, the German federal government will shoulder the cost of disposal.
Aside from the dangers of vintage bombs, Tesla is also closely coordinating with authorities and local environmental groups to move animals living in the forest such as a species of endangered bats, deers, wolves, ants, among others. The electric carmaker must be able to remove the trees in the parcel of land they will use for the first phase of construction by Feb. 27, just before the breeding season of birds in the area and when tree cutting will be prohibited.
The area has also been cordoned off and proper signs put up in the build site to make sure only authorized personnel move in the area. Members of local environment groups recently conducted forest walks to protest the building of the Tesla factory and it could be dangerous for anyone to roam around the forest that has not yet been cleared of vintage bombs.
To address the issues raised by locals, Tesla opened an information center in Grunheide and has promised to resolve issues within the legal framework.
Tesla plans to begin construction of the Gigfactory 4 facility by mid-March and start production by July next year. The car factory is set to generate about 8,000 jobs and produce roughly 150,000 cars during its initial phase.

How To Manage Diabetes in Seniors
Guest post by Lindsay Johnson
They say old age is gold age, but the truth is that it is only gold when older people are taken good care of. Age is characterized by the onset of several illnesses that are hard to avoid; Alzheimer’s is one such disease. In many cases, children, due to their demanding routines, fail to take care of their elderly well, so to make the situation easier, home care centers have been introduced. The dementia care whittier provides exceptional care for the oldies with Alzheimer’s issues and supports them emotionally and medically.
Another very upsetting condition in old age is Diabetes which will be discussed in detail in this article.
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a chronic condition affecting millions worldwide and is extremely challenging for seniors to manage. As we grow old, our bodies become less efficient at maintaining blood sugar levels, and we may also be dealing with other health issues that complicate diabetes management. However, with the right strategies and support, seniors can live well with Diabetes. This article will explore some tips and techniques for managing Diabetes in seniors.
Tips on How To Manage Diabetes in Seniors
Regular physical activity can help stabilize blood sugar levels, improve insulin sensitivity, and boost overall health. Seniors with Diabetes should aim to get at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week, including activities like brisk walking, swimming, or cycling. Strength training exercises are also essential to maintain muscle mass and bone density.
However, seniors should be careful not to overdo it and should talk to their doctor before starting a new exercise program. They may need to make adjustments based on their other health conditions.
Keep a balanced diet
A healthy diet is essential for managing Diabetes in seniors. This means eating plenty of nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Seniors with Diabetes should aim to consume a balanced diet that provides the nutrients they need while keeping blood sugar levels stable.
They may need to work with a dietitian to develop a meal plan that meets their needs. Seniors should also be mindful of portion sizes and avoid skipping meals or going too long between meals, which can cause blood sugar levels to fluctuate.
Monitor blood sugar levels.
Seniors with Diabetes should monitor their blood sugar levels regularly to ensure they are staying within a healthy range. They may need to check their blood sugar levels several times daily, especially if taking insulin or other medications that can affect blood sugar.
Several types of blood sugar monitoring devices are available, including glucose meters that use a fingerstick test and continuous glucose monitoring systems that use a sensor inserted under the skin. Seniors should talk to their doctor about which monitoring method is best for them.
Follow the medications as prescribed.
Seniors with Diabetes may need to take medications to help control their blood sugar levels. These may include oral medications or insulin injections. It’s essential to take these medications as prescribed and to keep up with any necessary dosage adjustments.
Seniors should also be aware of any potential side effects of their medications and talk to their doctor if they experience any concerning symptoms.
Get regular check-ups
Seniors with Diabetes should see their doctor regularly for check-ups and monitoring of their condition. They may need to have their A1C levels checked every three to six months, as well as regular blood pressure and cholesterol checks.
Staying on top of any other health issues is essential, as these can affect diabetes management. Seniors should also be aware of the signs and symptoms of complications related to Diabetes, such as neuropathy or retinopathy, and report any concerns to their doctor.
Keep stress level in line
Stress can significantly impact blood sugar levels, and seniors with Diabetes should take steps to manage stress effectively. This could include practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation, staying active, and maintaining social connections.
Seniors may also benefit from talking to a mental health professional if they struggle with stress or other emotional issues.
Diabetes management strategies are continually evolving, and seniors with Diabetes should stay informed about the latest research and best practices. They may benefit from joining support groups or attending educational classes about diabetes management.
Seniors should also be aware of any changes in their condition or medication regimen and talk to their doctor about any concerns or questions.

It's been a pretty uneventful fall at the San Francisco Opera, as former General Director Pamela Rosenberg passes -- or rather tosses -- the baton to her successor, David Gockley. And nothing says "uneventful" like the umpteenth revival of Bizet's "Carmen," which is the company's final offering until the summer.
Well, not so fast there, partner. Tuesday's opening performance at the War Memorial Opera House may not have been a "Carmen" for the ages -- it was far too stolid and conventional for that -- but it was still a capable and respectable piece of musical theater, as well as a good reminder of how classics become classics in the first place.
