Spanish giants had pushed for prolific Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen as a a replacement for Luis Suarez, one of his agents, Roberto Calenda, has revealed.
Osimhen eventually joined the Italian side for an African record fee of €81m, plus add-ons.
In an interview with Radio Marte quoted by Tuttomercatoweb, Calenda said Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Barcelona pushed to sign the striker until the very end before Napoli won the race for his signature.
He said, “I usually never talk about these things, out of respect for professionalism and the club. It is right that Napoli say things as they went, they are the main players.
“I can say that it was a well-conducted negotiation by the parties started from a distance. The signing took place outside the giant eye of communication and we were good at keeping track of it.
“Difficult operation, Tottenham and Liverpool wanted Osimhen until the last; even Barcelona initially wanted him in place of Suarez. Napoli, however, did everything they wanted it and took it.”
Osimhen on Friday opened his goal-scoring account in his first appearance for Napoli with a promising hat-trick in a friendly game against L’Aquila.

Hi.Yes,normal operating tenpeture for these vehicles is anythere between 180 an 205. At about 205 degree,the ECM turns on the coolant fans.The only time the coolant fans are on at all times is when the a/c is on.As far as the funny smell,it could be the heatercore starting to leak.If it smells like coolant,it will be the heater core.I suggest you take it to your local dealership.This repair will be covered under the factory warrenty.

This is a problem with your thermister (heat sensor) You will find this on the left side of the water manifold about half way down. I'm not sure but I think it is a small tube that slides into the manifold and if you follow the wires back to the board it just plugs in. The part is reasonable priced for a heater part and very easy to install. Good luck.

Thank you for posting your question here on Fixya.com.
The part you will need is called a thermistor; it is the part that reads water temp and converts it to a digital signal for the board to display. The part number should be 42001-0053S. If you need additional details or troubleshooting tips, try the owner’s manual, here. You should be sure that there is no potential problems with water flow prior to just replacing the part. In extreme cases you could have poor water flow and the water in the heater is way too hot (105) yet the pool is much cooler. Generally you will have other indications this is the problem, such as a lot of banging and popping, like making microwave e popcorn. If that’s not the case, the thermistor is the way to go
If this answer does not fix your problem, please comment with additional details prior to rating the answer. Positive feedback is appreciated once your problem is solved!

Time to call qualified service technician. And watch what that person does to learn about your water heater.
I assume you have Honeywell Icon gas valve. Honeywell makes different several model numbers.
Here is 'typical' Honeywell Icon gas valve service manual for Bradford White, that may or may not apply to your water heater. It shows testing for Icon and disassembly instructions, and error codes.
Gas water heaters today require yearly service that includes cleaning burner parts and combustion chamber, checking vent and air intake, electrical connections, testing gas valve, checking gas pressure, bleeding air out of gas line, etc. These are things you can learn to do by reading service manual, and making sure you have a spare water heater around to connect real quick if experiment goes wrong.
If Icon gas valve is problem, that control is modular and can be replaced without draining tank.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel was due to visit a refugee camp in the southern Turkish town of Nizip near the Syrian border on Saturday afternoon. The chancellor said she hoped the one-trip would give her a chance to assess the conditions on the ground for those who had fled Syria’s war, as well as discuss the next steps in the implementation of the migrant deal.
Under the EU-Ankara plan, which went into force last month, migrants who don’t qualify for asylum in Greece will be deported back to Turkey. In return, the EU has agreed to extend visa-free travel to Turkish citizens and put forward €6bn ($6.8bn) over the next four years to help Turkey improve conditions for Syrian refugees already inside the country.
EU Council President Donald Tusk, EU Commission Vice President Frans Timmermans and Turkish prime minister Ahmet Dovutoglu were to accompany Merkel to the refugee camp and to a child protection center before retiring for talks.
EU urged to ‘rethink’ deal
Rights groups and the United Nations refugee agency have raised concerns about the moral and legal implications of sending people to Turkey. Ankara has been criticized for preventing several thousand refugees fleeing northern Syria from crossing into country and instead providing them with aid at displaced persons camps near the border. Rights group Amnesty International urged the European delegation not to “close their eyes to the catalogue of human rights abuses faced by refugees” in Turkey.
Judith Sunderland, Human Rights Watch’s acting deputy Europe and Central Asia director, criticized Merkel’s visit to what she called a “sanitized” camp and urged EU leaders to instead acknowledge the tens of thousands of Syrian refugees blocked from entering Turkey.
“That should make them rethink the flawed EU-Turkey deal,” she said.
Free speech concerns
Merkel is also under pressure to broach concerns about freedom of speech restrictions in Turkey. The German leader’s visit comes a little over a week after she granted Turkey’s request to allow prosecutors to investigate German comedian Jan Böhmermann over alleged insults targeting Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Merkel’s critics say her decision sought to appease Ankara at a time when Turkey has taken on a key role in stopping the influx of migrants to Europe.
EU Council President Tusk said Friday that “our freedoms, including freedom of expression, will not be subject to any political bargaining. This message must be heard by President Erdogan”.
A meeting between Merkel and Erdogan is not scheduled for during her visit, but the chancellor said “all issues would be mentioned during the conversation with the Turkish prime minister.”

Toshiba Memory America, soon to be Kioxia America, presents a new form factor for NVMe-SSDs in the format of a microSD card.
The new form factor, XFMEXPRESS, was introduced at the Flash Memory Summit in Santa Clara, California, and is primarily intended for ultra-mobile PCs, IoT devices and embedded applications.
An XFMEXPRESS card is slightly larger and thicker than a microSD card, with dimensions of 18 x 14 x 1.4 millimetres. Outside the similar footprint, however, XFMEXPRESS does not work the same as microSD, but as an SSD. You will need to open a device to replace or upgrade the card.
Unlike an NVMe-SSD that is connected via an M.2 connector and requires a screw to hold the SSD in place, connecting an XFMEXPRESS-SSD does not require any additional tools.
Toshiba worked with Japan Aviation Electronics Industry (JAE) on the design of the connector. It works with a metal lid that clicks over the SSD to keep it in place and also serves as a heatsink to cool the card passively.
4 to 8 GBps
XFMEXPRESS supports the PCIe 3.0 standard with the NVMe 1.3 protocol, as well as the new PCIe 4.0 standard, and uses two or four lanes. According to Toshiba, the first generation offers a theoretical bandwidth of up to 4 GBps. The next generation will increase that limit to 8 GBps.
The XFMEXPRESS technology looks promising, but everything will depend on its adoption by the industry. It is not known whether Toshiba has already brought other manufacturers on board to support the new standard on future hardware.This news article was automatically translated from Dutch to give Techzine.eu a head start.

It was definitely a Blue Christmas for one young Everton fan – after she dyed her hair in the Clubâ€™s colours in aid of Everton in the Community.
Lifelong supporter Hannah Stone made the decision to change hair colour to suit that of her beloved Blues as a gesture of thanks to the Clubâ€™s official charityâ€™s disability football programme, of which her cousin Ethan has been a participant of the Cerebral Palsy team for the past 12 months.
Hannah exhibited and explained her new look to a number of Everton´s first team stars at the Boxing Day fixture against Sunderland including Ross Barkley, Steven Naismith and John Stones.
And the fundraising 23-year-old has a specific target she is desperate to reach.
â€œI want to raise a grand for the Grand Old Team,â€ she said. â€œBut everything counts, no matter how big or small.
â€œI´m dying my hair blue first and foremost to raise people´s awareness of how much Everton in the Community do for all the kids who playfootball in their disability teams.
â€œThey give kids the chance to just play football, which is what they love and I want to say thanks. I´ve got a family member who was given a chance to play football and I´ve seen him and all his teammates at Everton in the Community, and I am so proud of every single one of them.
â€œI think everyone involved deserves all the credit in the world.â€
The Everton faithful can help Hannah reach her target by donating here.
Hannahâ€™s employers, Santander, have even offered to match the money raised from her fundraising to the tune of £700.
And if her target is achieved, Hannah has made an Everton-related choice to mark the occasion.
â€œIf I reach my target, I want to get a â€˜Nil Satis Nisi Optimumâ€™ tattoo,â€ she said. â€œAlthough with Roberto now in charge it might have to be â€˜Solo lo Mejorâ€™!
â€œEveryone has been really supportive of my idea and I would really like to thank Santander, Hannah McLellan from the Junior Fansâ€™ Forum who helped spread the word for me, and my hairdresser, Maxine Murphy, who donated the cost-price of dying my hair to the fundraising pot.â€
Everton in the Community is proud to have the largest and most respected disability football programme in the world, with over 10,000football opportunities for disabled children and adults delivered each year.
For further information on the life-changing work carried out by the disability staff and coaches of Everton in the Community, click here.

US Senate backs new law to prevent supply chain chaos from rail strike
US legislators have moved swiftly to avert a rail stoppage. After the House of Representatives ...
The UK government has launched a one-week consultation on its proposal to relax cabotage restriction on freight HGV drivers, despite mounting opposition from the haulage industry.
Under the proposal, foreign drivers arriving in the country with a laden truck would be allowed to spend two weeks in the UK performing an unlimited number of domestic deliveries, also known as cabotage operations.
Currently, non-UK drivers are allowed to perform just two cabotage runs within a week after delivering a Europe-UK shipment.
The Department for Transport said the measure would likely come into force towards the end of the year and last for six months, “helping secure supply chains in the medium term, alongside the wider package of measures government has put in place to address the shortage of drivers more broadly”.
Transport secretary Grant Shapps added: “The temporary changes to cabotage rules will also make sure foreign hauliers in the UK can use their time effectively and get more goods moving in the supply chain at a time of high demand.”
However, the Road Haulage Association said relaxing cabotage restrictions would “undermine the work being done to provide long-term solutions to deal with problems of lorry driver availability, pay and conditions”.
It explained: “This is not about drivers from outside the UK working for UK companies – this proposal outsources the whole haulage activity. Tax, safety regulation, national insurance obligations are all controlled outside the UK when cabotage is unfettered in the way proposed by government.”
RHA policy director Rod McKenzie called for the government to instead relax restrictions on non-UK drivers working for UK haulage firms and change the Certificates of Professional Competence (CPCs) to allow UK drivers whose certificate has retired or lapsed to return to the industry.
“These two measures would make a difference to the availability of lorry drivers for UK companies. It is a shame the UK government chose not to proceed in a timely way on these measures and instead decided to offshore UK haulage work to unaccountable operators,” Mr McKenzie said.
And further pressure is facing UK road transport supply chains after Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said the union would be “exploring” possible strike action to raise driver wages and improve working conditions.
“The treatment of drivers across the board has been nothing short of a disgrace. As the prime minister said recently, the answer to the driver shortage is better wages and improved conditions. This is what we demand.
“Now is the time for action not words. Britain’s drivers kept the nation moving during the worst crisis in living memory. It’s time for employers to pay workers a proper rate for the job.”
Ms Graham added: “Unite will be consulting its members before deciding on next steps, including exploring options for industrial action. I will not allow workers to pay the price for the pandemic.”

The latest high-tech and feature-rich mobile phone that should get launched on the Japanese market is the Hitachi-branded AU phone by KDDI Japanese cellular services dubbed WOO Ketai H001. The most impressive feature of this handset can be considered its 3D display, which can deliver games, photos and videos using the 3D technology.
The most attractive part about this feature is the fact that even conventional 2D multimedia content can be virtually optimized to use the 3rd dimension when displayed. Besides the color-accurate IPS-enabled 845×480 screen, which features a 3.1-inch diagonal, the WOO Ketai H001 also sports a 5-megapixel camera.
More features of the Hitachi-branded AU phone include Global Passport CDMA service support, 1Seg broadcasting TV tuners and eWallet functionality, Bluetooth and infrared connectivity, as well as a microSD expansion slot for up to 2GB of additional storage. The phone's battery is reported to provide up to 260 hours of standby time, as well as about 220 minutes of talk time.
The Japanese mobile phone market has a wide offering when it comes to 3G networks and mobile phone-based wallets, which drives the carriers to adding to their lineups more advanced handsets to see leveraged traction from the users. This is why KDDI has come up with the mobile phone that features a display with 3D capabilities, as well as with a large pack of other functionalities.
The Hitachi WOO Ketai H001 mobile phone measures 51 x 111 x 18.6mm and weighs only 145 grams. The handset is expected to hit the Japanese market sometime in spring this year, and it should come in colors like “Flame Red,” “Solid Silver” and “Neon Purple.” Unfortunately, it seems that the manufacturing company does not have plans to offer the device on other markets, at least not in the near future.

Wipfli Adds Steinberg Advisors
Top 100 firm Wipfli LLP has merged in Steinberg Advisors, Ltd., effective January 1, expanding the Milwaukee-based firm’s presence in Illinois.
Steinberg Advisors, based in Northbrook, Ill., provides audit, tax and management consulting services to businesses and individuals in the Chicago area.
“Steinberg Advisors is a natural fit with Wipfli,” said Wipfli managing partner Rick Dreher in a statement. “Their culture and the services they provide complement Wipfli’s broad range of services. This combination will add to the depth of our resources in the Chicago area.”
Approximately 50 professionals from Steinberg, including seven shareholders, have joined Wipfli as part of the deal, including Irwin Steinberg, who founded the firm in 1999.
The combined firm will have approximately 1,500 associates, including 181 partners, 32 U.S. office locations (three offices in the Chicago area), and two offices in India.
Wipfli ranked 21st on Accounting Today’s 2015 list of the Top 100 Firms, with $180.99 million in annual revenue.
Gary Shutan, managing partner of Steinberg Advisors, said his firm is pleased to join Wipfli. “This will be a great combination of two strong firms that will position our firm to provide expanded services to our clients while continuing to provide the personal attention and exceptional client service they expect from our firm,” said Shutan.
Allan D. Koltin, CEO of Koltin Consulting Group, who advised both firms on the merger, commented, “This is huge for Wipfli as it makes a serious statement about their entering the commercial marketplace in Chicago and this will probably serve as a springboard to other mergers and strategic hires in the Chicago market. Steinberg Advisors was courted by eight different firms over the past couple of years and chose Wipfli based on their culture and growth opportunities for their associates. Steinberg’s merger was purely strategic in that they had already figured out succession and were looking for a way to offer more resources and services to their clients. Outside of some friendly disagreements on whether the Bears or Packers had a better football team, the negotiations went as smoothly as any merger I can recall. I wouldn’t be surprised to see another Chicago merger added onto this one in the next one to two years.”


We offer the comprehensive development of projects in the renewable energy sector, mainly wind and photovoltaic energy, addressing the different phases necessary for commissioning and operation.

Given the need to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, Galenergy is committed to the production of clean, efficient, safe and renewable energy. After a rigorous study and planning process, we install the wind farms in unpopulated areas with the aim of avoiding the impact on the lives of the inhabitants. Current climate needs require green and clean energy such as wind power.
Offshore wind energy is a type of renewable, inexhaustible and non-polluting energy that is obtained by taking advantage of the force of the wind that is produced on the high seas. This wind resource is greater than on land and reduces the visual and acoustic impact. Offshore wind energy is a potential and innovative resource with a future perspective.
Green hydrogen is the cornerstone of the energy transition and one of the solutions to decarbonise important sectors of the economy. It is one of the simplest chemical elements and as a fuel it releases energy without emitting polluting gases and hence its importance.
Green hydrogen, produced from water and renewable energies and obtained either through electrolysis or alternative methods of its own, is destined to become the eternal fuel that lights up a new era.
We have photovoltaic projects in the early phase of development in Andalusia, Extremadura and Catalonia, with land availability and a high probability of obtaining an access/connection permit.
Currently, one of Galenergy’s objectives is to achieve a portfolio of photovoltaic projects of 200 MWp by 2023.
In the last year, the processing of a 40 MWp photovoltaic generation plant in the province of Lleida has begun.

Kent County prosecuting attorney Christopher Becker, must decide whether the officer who shot and killed Patrick Lyoya will face criminal charges, reported NPR. The official and independent autopsies on Lyoya’s death confirmed he died of a gunshot wound to the back of the head. Advocates and Lyoya’s family demand justice for they call an execution.
While Michigan State Police investigate the incident, Officer Christopher Schurr has been placed on paid leave without policing duties. Becker said he needs more information including forensic evidence regarding the body camera and Taser to make a decision on charges. While he requests more information from MSP, advocates apply pressure on Becker as they await his decision.
They demand Schurr be charged as the need for police reform is long overdue. They also questioned the ethics of Becker prosecuting the case while having ties to the police department.
More on the case from NPR:
“You’re a prosecutor. Your job is to make sure the law is uphold, and if anybody breaks it, no matter if they’re a police officer no matter if they are a regular civilian,” activist, Davionne Smith, a Black Grand Rapids resident said during a weekend protest. Smith has been shot at by GRPD and is a cousin of Breonna Taylor.
“If people would have listened, it would have been preventable, but now it’s like an ‘I told you so’ moment. That’s exactly what it is now. ‘I told you so,’ “ activist Olabanji Olatunde said during a march to a Grand Rapids City Commission meeting.
City leaders said they are working toward change. During a meeting to address the city’s 2023 budget, Grand Rapids City Manager, Mark Washington, proposed a plan that, if voted in, that, would ramp up the budget for the city’s Office of Oversight and Public Accountability, taking it from 404,781 in fiscal year 2022 to $1.7 million.
Lyoya’s family continue to grieve Patrick’s death as the case goes on. “I was thinking that Patrick would take my place, and to see that my son has been killed like an animal by a police officer, I see that I have no life,” said Lyoya’s father Peter.
On the other hand, the Grand Rapids Police Officer Association has thrown their full support behind Schurr under the argument“officers have a right to protect themselves.” In a statement the association called the incident a “volatile” and “dangerous” situation for Schurr.
Becker said his findings could be “earth-shattering” or nothing at all. Until then, demonstrators will continue saying Patrick’s name.

How to Build a Comprehensive Afterschool System in Rural and Frontier Regions
Out-of-school time programs in rural and frontier regions serve youth throughout the nation. Yet many existing frameworks to support out-of-school time professionals are misaligned with the unique needs of rural and frontier communities, unintentionally preventing staff in these programs from building their own skills.
In this session, learn how the Wyoming Afterschool Alliance (WYAA) and the National Institute on Out-of-School Time (NIOST) partnered to create a statewide system of quality improvement from the ground up. Key features of the current system include program self-assessment processes facilitated by quality improvement coaches, with a strong focus on building programs’ internal capacity to provide high quality OST experiences. Panelists will speak about the unique assets that programs in rural and frontier regions bring, as well as strategies they use to address programs’ geographic isolation.
This session will offer practical guidance to anyone seeking to meaningfully engage programs in rural and frontier areas in continuous quality improvement. This presentation is part of a two-part series featuring contributors to Measure, Use, Improve! Data Use in Out-of-School Time, from Information Age Publishing.

Although I’m loath to admit it, I’m probably not as young and vital and ‘street’ as once I was. The very fact that I used ‘street’ there to exemplify the cutting edge of gritty, urban youth culture almost certainly proves that original point. With this in mind Somebody Help Me probably wasn’t targeted at me, a geeky thirty five year old from the North East of England whose idea of a good time is a nice cup of tea and a Miss Marple on TV. For the benefit of better understanding, and to fill in my own cultural blanks of things that happened post 1986, I have conducted some research:
Somebody Help Me is directed by Chris Stokes, Chris Stokes is a record producer, manager, and film director. He wrote and directed the 2004 dance-drama film You Got Served (???) and House Party 4: Down to the Last Minute (slightly firmer ground here, I am aware of the work, and the hair, of Kid ‘n’ Play, though I had no idea House Party was a franchise. To make matters worse House Party 4: Down to the Last Minute is the only film of the franchise not to star Kid ‘n’ Play so I’m still no more culturally hip).
The movie’s two leads are Marques Barrett Houston and Omari Granberry. Marques Barrett Houston is an R&B singer, rapper, and actor and was a member of the R&B singing group Immature/IMx until 2002, he went solo in 2003. (I know what some of these words mean). Omari Granberry, better known as Omarion, is an R&B singer, actor, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and former lead singer of the boy band, B2K. He is currently a judge on America's Best Dance Crew. (I know what dance is).
Now, while I strongly believe the many assorted accomplishments of the cast and crew, listed above, to be valuable and impressive in the wider cultural sphere, these accomplishments, however, do not qualify them to make a credible horror film.
The thing about Somebody Help Me is that it could have pretty awesome. It makes an attempt to challenge the stupid stereotypes that shouldn’t exist in the 21st century film making, or indeed society. Our main protagonists happen to be black and this quite rightly isn’t treated as any kind of issue, but within the context of the horror genre it is addressed and our heroes and the white supporting cast are seen to challenge the assumptions of the horror viewer. Unfortunately it’s a half hearted attempt and this then leaves us in a cinematic no man’s land between the non issue of the these nice young people who happen to be black and this half formed challenge to horror genre expectations that doesn’t really go anywhere and that the film makers just seem to be coyly skirting round. So ultimately the viewer is left confused, we are not allowed to simply accept that protagonists happen to be black and get on and enjoy the film, but equally once the challenge is set and we’re aware of it we are not provoked enough to gain anything from the experience. Either way it’s a shame.
Anyway, on with the drama. After a confusing flashback to three years previous involving girls, dog cages and a crazy person, the action proper begins with two nice, young couples driving into the wilderness for weekend birthday celebration. Our two heroes, Brendan (Houston) and Darryl (Granberry) and their respective girlfriends are LA city types, they are headed to Darryl’s ‘Uncle Charlie’s’ cabin, but as LA city types they are a little apprehensive about the country adventure, however, by the time they arrive and everything seems deluxe cabiny fresh they happily resolve themselves to having a jolly good time. Although there is the small disconcerting of neighbouring creepy guy who seems intent on giving them a good staring at, but that’s probably perfectly fine.
Brendan and Darryl gallantly head off into town to stock up on the necessary party supplies, Battenberg cake and fizzy pop I can only assume, and there they run to the friendly local sheriff who spends a little time quizzing them on the nature of their visit. Here we learn two things; firstly that Darryl’s uncle is named Charles Bronson (honestly, he is) and secondly that sometimes young people staying in secluded horror movie locations are nice, friendly and polite and not just all about the drinking and the drugs and the sex. The sheriff seems taken with these nice young chaps and gives them his card for emergencies and reassures them that the neighbouring creepy guy is really quite harmless.
What happened next actually made me feel better about my whole lack youthful vitality and street cred. Back at the house our two couples are joined by three of the oddest, whitest couples in the world (seriously, one of them was dressed as an approximation of Velma from Scooby Doo and one had such chronic asthma she apparently can’t even blink without a demonstration) for the birthday bash. Now the gang are all assembled the dullest birthday party ever can finally kick off. If I was Brendan’s girlfriend and this was 21st birthday party I’d be praying for crazied up psycho killer to liven things up. Our hip young things blow up some balloons, listen to some surprisingly, given the pedigree of those concerned, bad pop music and drink some shots until Velma from Scooby Doo falls over a bit. On my 21st my friends and I woke up on the Albert Dock in Liverpool, 200 miles from where we started, because at some indistinct point in time the previous evening we’d thought it was good idea to commandeer the This Morning weather map and sail to Ireland using an AA road map as a guide. Now while this might not exactly be the epitome of rock ‘n’ roll it’s a damn sight better than balloons and pop. Well, kind of, I believe there was some singing of show tunes involved as well, but we’ll gloss over that.
This Morning: A soul destroying late morning magazine show watched predominantly by students, the unemployed and bored housewives.
The This Morning Weather Map: 'Fred the Weatherman' would jump about on this in a variety of ‘hilarious’ jumpers in an ill-conceived attempt to make the weather more interesting and dynamic.
Me: Drunken idiot
|Bright young things trapped in crazy killer cage|
|Lou Lou: Cute but dim escape artist|
On the off chance that you still want to see this movie I will refrain from divulging any more of the plot. However, before I stop talking there are a few notable moments that I simply can’t let slide:
3) Most Incompetent Serial Killer Ever: Crazy surgeon can’t find three whole people hiding behind a couch in his own bloody house.
4) Whathisface Who?: Despite living in a apparently small town where, judging by their interest in strangers and new arrivals, everyone presumably knows everyone the locals still manage to miss that a national news worthy on the run serial killer is living down the road. He’s got his medical certificates with his name on them on the wall for God’s sake!

Carpets are one of the most sizeable investments you make into the décor of a room so their care should be taken regularly. Carpet cleaning mistakes are however quite common as most owners often end up taking certain steps that end up having a negative impact upon the condition of the carpet.
Poor maintenance of carpets can lead to the discoloration, development of molds and other health hazards as well as providing a dirty look to the room. Hence it is important to regularly clean carpets but also make sure that you are not making the common carpet cleaning mistakes that could ruin a carpet. Often, it is better to consult a carpet cleaning professional in this regard for the best possible solution and maintenance measures to undertake.
Shiny Carpet Cleaners is an established brand in the carpet cleaning business and we have compiled 5 common carpet cleaning mistakes that people often make so you can avoid making them as well. If you are located in the GTA region (Mississauga, Toronto, Oakville or Milton), you can reach out to Shiny Carpet Cleaners at 289-236-0898 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.org for professional carpet cleaning services and eco-friendly solutions for carpet care.
Common Carpet Cleaning Mistakes to Avoid
1) Scrubbing for Stain Removal
Carpet stains are very common and especially in households with children or pets, spills may cause permanent carpet stains to develop. These stains may be caused due to various reasons such as drink spills, pet urine and dirt from shoes etc. For these sort of commonplace yet persistent stains, most people simply end up using scrubbing to remove the stains.
However, scrubbing the stains powerfully will not only serve to damage the fibers of the carpet thus ridding the carpet of its smooth touch but also causing the carpet to fray. Fraying typically occurs when the carpet fibers become worn, often at the edges which is due to constant scrubbing. This will directly result in the reduction in the lifespan of your carpet while also damaging its appearance.
The proper method of removing solid stains (e.g. food stains, dirt) is by gently scraping it off while for the case of liquid stains, it is best to blot the stain by using a clean cloth. These techniques are better at preserving the life of your carpet as well as its appearance when compared to scrubbing which is one of the most common carpet cleaning mistakes.
2) Trying Different DIY Cleaning Methods
Carpet cleaning is not an easy task. Loads of carpet cleaning mistakes happen because homeowners decide to take things into their hands and perform “DIY” carpet cleaning i.e. do it yourself carpet cleaning by using either traditional or non-traditional means. There is always the risk of making a slight mistake which in the scheme of things, may result in the spoiling of your precious carpet.
Lack of experience and experimenting with unreliable methods can lead to undesirable results. However, for important and sensitive decorations like carpets, it is best to let professionals handle carpet cleaning due to having proper experience and equipment in this regard. Professionals are well advised in different carpet cleaning mistakes and are able to perform maintenance effectively and efficiently. Other common carpet cleaning mistakes can also be learned about more as well.
3) Getting the Carpet Too Wet
This is another common carpet cleaning mistake that carpet owners often make. Cleaning things with water is a typical human reflex and as soon as some food drops onto the carpet, the immediate response is to add water onto the stain or spot. Often times, too much water will be poured resulting in the carpet getting too wet due to the water seeping deep into the fibers of the carpet.
If your carpet gets too wet, then your carpet’s long term future will be at risk due to the excess water ruining the carpet fibers and causing the carpet to loose color as well as smoothness. In certain situations, depending upon the type and material of carpet, the water may leave residual stains upon the surface of the carpet which may be difficult to remove. To avoid one of the most repeated carpet cleaning mistakes, it is advised to either sprinkle small amounts of water on the spot and follow it up by blotting it using a tissue paper.
4) Not Vacuuming Regularly
When most people buy a carpet, they make one of the most common carpet cleaning mistakes,, namely not vacuuming the carpet regularly. Vacuuming is very important for your carpet as it helps remove the dust and dirt trapped onto the surface of the carpet. You can read about some vacuuming tips to steer clear from common carpet cleaning mistakes that most people make. It has been estimated that not vacuuming regularly can solely lead to the life of a carpet decreasing by 3 to 4 years due to the accumulation of dust which gets embedded deep into the fibers of the carpet thus giving it a dirty and disheveled look.
Vacuum cleaners are not only effective with respect to carpet cleaning but are also quite useful in the maintenance of sensitive household objects. Regular vacuuming i.e. once every 1-2 weeks will not only result in a longer lifespan for your carpet but also a cleaner look and will prolong the need to call professional carpet cleaners for maintenance of your carpet.
5) Not Cleaning Spills Immediately
Carpet spills are a common occurrence in any household. However, most owners make the mistake of taking too long to clean the carpet spill often resulting in that small spill becoming a permanent stain on the carpet surface. As this is another one of the most common carpet cleaning mistakes to avoid, we strongly advise you to clean up that stain quickly before it gets deep into the carpet fibers if its a liquid stain or leaves a mark if its caused due to a solid.
You can learn more about cleaning different carpet stains as well.
6) Over Shampooing The Carpet
When undergoing carpet cleaning, often carpet owners make the mistake of adding too much shampoo solution to the carpet when cleaning it. As one of the maintenance tips to prolong carpet life, we recommend either adding a balanced amount of shampoo to clean the carpet followed by thoroughly rinsing and drying of the carpet or that you consider hiring a professional to thoroughly clean the carpet.
Not hiring a professional is another one of frequent carpet cleaning mistakes due to the cost of carpet cleaning but professional carpet cleaners know which different type of carpet needs which type of cleaning as well as knowing how to deep clean your carpets. Due to hiring professional carpet cleaners, the lifespan of the carpet is increased as well as its general appearance. As mentioned, over shampooing the carpet is one of many carpet cleaning mistakes that can happen when people decide to take matters into their own hands.
How Often Should You Shampoo Your Carpet?
For keeping the appearance of the carpet as fresh as possible, shampooing the carpet is one of the better options. You should shampoo your carpets once every 12-18 months professionally, as according to this article. This helps keep the carpet smell and look appealing, albeit it should be noted that this shampooing is best done by hiring professional carpet cleaners.
What Should You Not Put On Carpet?
Some of the carpet cleaning mistakes owners often make is the addition of certain substances and products on the carpet in an attempt to clean the carpet. Many times, these products often end up doing more harm than good. Such substances include bleach, laundry detergents, dish soap and abrasive cleaner. Once again, it is recommended to seek a professional for thorough carpet cleaning.
What Is Safe To Use On Carpet?
However, it is not like we are wholly recommending you to keep away from DIY cleaning as there are certain situations where cleaning the carpet by yourself is fine. In these situations, it is best to use natural substances like vinegar, baking soda, water solutions to clean the surface of the carpets and avoid any carpet cleaning mistakes.
This article about cleaning carpets safely is also worth a read.

In the 1930’s, quite by chance, mineral prospectors noticed that certain rocks changed colour when exposed to filtered spectrum of a mercury lamp (a source of black light). During the Second World War the ultraviolet lamp gained importance. The U.S. Army realised that tungsten was of strategic importance for army equipment. However tungsten deposits had not yet been discoverer in the U.S.A.
Then large finds were made in the old mining regions. All the miners had to do was to switch on their ultraviolet lamps for the blueish-white colour of the tungsten ore (scheelite) to show. This is how the U.S.A. became the world’s major producer of tungsten during World War Two.
After the war, the search for uranium gave new impetus to the ultraviolet lamp. It was used by miners to differentiate between uranium and thorium, and in smaller mines to detect the zones richest in ore.
Some deposits were discovered purely by chance. A ranch owner in Nevada was going down into an old gold mine with his lamp when to his surprise the galleries lit up in a yellowish-green colour, the fluorescent colour of Autunite. A large deposit had been found. Thereafter, prospectors used ultraviolet lamps to search for deposits of lead, zinc and fluorite.

How to write a front cover of a book that sells
The cover of your book should look attractive… And attract attention… And be distinctive from other books in that genre… And appeal to your target group… And fit your story.
How do you make sure that your cover does all that and also sells well?
Don’t make the same mistake I made (for years!)
When I started publishing my own books, I made a lot of mistakes. The biggest mistake was trying to design a book cover myself. I thought a book cover just had to look nice. There is much more to it though.
I tried to put too much on the cover. I wanted to create something magical, something different. I added images of each step of the process described in the book, symbolism of the title, or a reference to an important detail in the book.
Only people who read the book would understand these things, and I hoped they would be really impressed. It turned out that potential readers weren’t impressed and my books hardly or didn’t sell at all…
It took me a while to discover that my approach was completely wrong. The cover is not intended for people who have already read the book. The main purpose of the cover is to make your book stand out from other books (both online and offline), generate interest from people who are new to it, and sell it.
Tips for a good cover
- When you search for a book online, on your laptop or smartphone, you don’t see the full cover, just the thumbnail, the mini version of the book. It must be clear at a glance what your book is about, who it is suitable for, and what benefits it offers the reader.
- Make sure that your cover is visible, readable, and attractive as a thumbnail. There’s not a lot of room for details. Limit yourself to the title, subtitle, author, and one image. It was a game-changer once I figured this out.
- Take a look at book covers by other authors, within your genre, and in other genres. What do you notice? What works for you? What attracts you less?
- What do you want to convey to your reader? How can you get the message across? Which images, colors, and fonts work together well?
- Do you want to highlight a problem on your cover, or the solution, the result that readers can achieve after reading your book?
Ask a professional designer (with book experience!)
It’s great to do some preliminary research and generate some ideas, but I recommend having the final design of your cover done by a professional. Preferably a designer who also has real experience with book covers, because there are technical specifications that you have to take into account. Plus: homemade often looks really homemade. And that’s not what you want to convey to your potential readers, is it?
Have fun designing your cover!
Are you serious about writing your book?
Don’t reinvent the wheel, like I did. As the author and co-author of more than 30 books, writing coach for hundreds of people and organizer of 20 writing retreats, I have finally found the best system for writing a good book: the ‘Reverse Writing’ method. If you begin at the end and create a good structure before you start writing, you will be able to follow your energy, instead of the page numbers.

Recently, I spoke with Michael Welch of Global Research News Hour, for his episode, “Truth and Lies of the Syrian Conflict”.
Michael Welch’s introduction includes:
“The Syrian crisis is once again making headlines. In particular, humanitarian agencies like UNICEF, AVAAZ, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International are blaming Syrian and Russian airstrikes for civilian deaths in East Ghoutta while completely ignoring the carnage meted out by rebel factions in the area.
While such respected agencies, as well as supposedly independent media outlets like Democracy Now may fall short of actually endorsing war, the distorted coverage and one-sided humanitarian narratives they relay play into the hands of the military interventionists.
This week’s installment of the Global Research News Hour returns its gaze to Syria and attempts to provide a fuller picture of what’s happening on the ground and why.
First up is Eva Bartlett. She has visited Syria frequently over the last several years, interviewing numerous people in all parts of Syria. She can attest to the important stories that are being deliberately weeded out of the corporate press. In her conversation with the Global Research News Hour (transcribed below) she details missing reporting about terrorist activities in the country. She also corrects the record on the meme of her being on Russia’s payroll, while disclosing areas where the objectivity of UN and other humanitarian agencies are compromised.
We next hear from Damascus-based journalist Tom Duggan. He speaks about the shelling of schools, hospitals and other non-military targets by militants in East Ghouta and the suffering that has resulted. He also elaborates on the way Western sanctions against Syria have contributed to the humanitarian disaster in the city.
Finally, Patrick Henningsen returns to the program. The geopolitical analyst has been to Syria in the last year. He addresses the actual reasons for U.S. interest in the overthrow and undermining of President Assad. He also gets into Washington’s ‘Plan B’ for Syria and interprets Turkish operations in Afrin, Israeli involvement near Damascus, and Kurdish activity within the north of Syria within that context.”
“Eva Bartlett is a Canadian independent journalist and activist. She spent years on the ground covering conflict zones in the Middle East, especially in Syria and Palestine.
She’s a recipient of the international journalism reward for international reporting from the Mexican Press Club in 2017. Bartlett maintains that the major press have based their assertions about the Syrian conflict on unreliable and partisan sources.”

Louisa May Alcott Quotes: Wisdom from the Author of Little WomenShe grew up around transcendentalist writers such as Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson , who were family friends. Much of her schooling came from the instruction of her philosopher father, along with some informal lessons from the neighboring transcendentalists. In , Alcott began writing her own work, publishing poems, short stories, and tales with the pen name Flora Fairfield. In that she started to use her own name for her work and with the enormous popularity of "Little Women" she became financially independent. In the following years, Alcott published a number of novels and short stories, generally focused on the younger generation; these novels include, "Little Men" , "Eight Cousins" , and "Jo's Boys" In addition, she wrote several adult novels, which include "Work" , and "A Modern Mephistopheles" None of her adult works ever reached the popularity of her young adult novels.

It’s the JPT competition next for the Valiants and here’s our brief guide to Tuesday evening’s opponents.
Manager: Rob Page (interim)
Last match: 0-1 vs Fleetwood
Form guide: L-D-W-L-L
Manager: Simon Grayson
Last match: 4-2 vs Colchester
Form guide: W-W-W-D-L
Ryan McGivern: misses the match
Vale will not be facing former striker Jordan Hugill, who has been ruled out of action until the New Year. The home side. Meanwhile, Scott Wiseman, Alan Browne, Will Hayhurst and Callum Robinson are all on International duty.
Rob Page has commented that he won’t be making too many changes but he will have at least two enforced on his hands. Ryan McGivern is on International duty and with former Preston man Chris Robertson seemingly out of favour, it looks like Stephane Zubar will make his full debut. Meanwhile, it looks like a straight swop upfront with Ben Williamson in for the suspended Jordan Slew. It remains to be seen what (if any) other changes will be made so our predicted starting eleven is a work of much guesswork…
Yates – Duffy – Zubar – Dickinson (c)
Dodds – Lines – O’Connor – Marshall
Pope – Williamson
“We want to win every game we play in. Everyone is talking about changes but for me it is about keeping the continuity and the slight progress we have seen in the last few games…”
– Rob Page
Last time we met
Gavin Tomlin: scored against Preston
The Valiants came out worst after a five goal thriller back in January. The home side had gone 3-0 up before goals from Jordan Hugill and Gavin Tomlin set up a frantic finale. The match at Vale Park back in November 2013 ended in a 2-0 loss for the Vale with Joe Garner scoring both of North End’s goals.
Vale’s last win at Deepdale was way back in 1992 and here’s the highlights courtesy of the OVF YouTube channel:
- Vale wins: 17
- Preston wins: 22
- Draws: 11
Ben Williamson: a half-century of starts
Should he start upfront, this game will mark Ben Williamson’s 50th career start. The striker has mainly been used as a substitute throughout his career with 49 starts and 90 sub appearances.
Vale enjoyed a six match unbeaten run over Preston stretching from March 1988 until December 1992.
Striker Joe Garner scored four goals in two games against Vale last season.
There have been a number of high-scoring games between the two sides. In 1926, the game ended 4-4; in 1929 Preston thrashed Vale 7-1 while Vale recorded a 4-1 away win in 1931.
They played for both…
Jordan Hugill: misses out on a game against his former club
Vale will miss catching up with striker Jordan Hugill as the forward is injured. It’s fair to say that Hugill did not depart Vale Park on the best of terms. Many fans felt that he owed some loyalty to the club after he was plucked from non-league obscurity and developed into a raw but potentially prolific forward.
Chris Robertson: appears likely to be on the bench for Vale
Another player who is set to miss out is defender Chris Robertson who appears to be out of favour at Vale right now. The centre-half was signed from Preston in 2013 after a one-year spell at Deepdale. Goalkeeper Chris Neal also began his career at Preston, making a solitary appearance before moving to Shrewsbury Town.
Other players to appear for both clubs include:
- Winger Gareth Ainsworth
- Midfielder Ian Bogie
- Striker Darren Beckford
- Defender Liam Chilvers
- Striker Akpo Sodje
- Winger Oshor Williams
- Striker Dave Hibbert
- Goalkeeper Barry Siddall
1926: an eight goal thriller
Wilf Kirkham (centre) : on target for Vale against Preston
In September 1926, the Valiants played Preston North End at Deepdale in front of an 18,960 crowd. The supporters were certainly entertained as the match ended in a thrilling 4-4 draw.
The Vale goalscorers were Jack Maddock (a penalty), Jack Lowe, Tom Page and all-time record goalscorer Wilf Kirkham.
Vale won the fixture at the Old Recreation Ground in April 1927 thanks to goals from Harry Anstiss and Billy Briscoe while Kirkham finished the season with 41 goals in all competitions including four hat-tricks.

delivery of Russian MiG-29 fighters for the Myanmar Air Force.
A 400 million-euro ($570 mln) contract has been signed for the delivery of
Russian MiG-29 fighters for the Myanmar Air Force, a source close to
Russia's arms export monopoly told a business daily on Wednesday.
Vedomosti quoted the source at Rosoboronexport as saying the Russian bid to
supply MiG-29 Fulcrum-D carrier-based fighter jets beat China's offer to
sell its latest J-10 and FC-1 fighters.
Myanmar was rearmed with Chinese military aircraft worth some $2 billion in
the 1990s, the paper said.
The country bought 12 MiG-29 fighters in 2001, but this contract is the
largest since the 2007 unfulfilled contract to supply Algeria with 34 MiG-29
In 2008, a contract for the supply of six MiG fighters was signed with Sri
Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov announced last year that Russia
would give Lebanon 10 MiG-29 fighter jets for free, Vedomosti said.
