Principles of Web Design

Thiết kế is Vietnamese for “Design,” and Thiết kế Websites is all about excellence in website design. Creating a great website only seems simple to those who don’t do it! Here we have a lot of fun with those who design sites poorly. Old-fashioned HTML–the dreaded Internet of 1995–can be an entertaining topic! But we also care about those who design well, who understand the beauty of web design, and of being able to navigate smoothly through your world via computer.

The Internet has made the web a place where we travel, communicate, learn, socialize, research, and consume. Here we watch TV and movies, listen to music, chat with friends, do our jobs, shop, study, and more. Web design, then, is as important as urban infrastructure. A well-designed or poorly-designed website impacts us just as a well-designed or poorly-designed highway. If you’ve ever missed your exit because you didn’t see the sign for it until you’d zoomed past, then you understand this analogy all too well.

What is great web design?

  • It serves a specific purpose. Whether to entertain, to gain marketing leads, to sell books, or to inform, a well-designed website is one whose design exists to help fulfill its purpose.
  • It is planned out. Haphazard design will cause navigation byways that short-circuit the site’s intention. Planning will help produce a harmonious result.
  • It is invisible to the user. The site shouldn’t be invisible, but the design should. Unless the purpose of the site is to sell web design, then the design should recede into the background so that the user can enjoy his or her experience. When you go to the movies or the theater, you don’t want to watch an actor act; you want to see a character so real you forget the person is really an actor pretending to be that character. “Seeing” web design is like seeing an actor act.
  • It’s a pleasure to use. Hey, designer. Users are people too. Let them have a bit of fun!

Choosing the Right Warehouse in the Media Industry

Choosing the Right Warehouse in the Media Industry

Media-dependent companies know how important warehousing can be for a variety of reasons. Whether a business sells media equipment, requires large amounts of stock to repair their own equipment, or needs vast storage space, warehousing is an integral part of media success. With that in mind, it’s a good idea for any firm owner, small or large, to understand how to choose the right media warehousing company for the job. Here’s a quick guide to doing just that.

How Much Space Should a Company Get?
This can vary wildly, and is largely dependent on a business’s individual needs. A few rules apply in every situation however. It’s always best to pay for too much space, rather than too little. Companies stocking parts could receive large shipments in error, and it’s important to have a place to temporarily stock extra supplies. Talking to a firm’s media warehousing company about how such situations could be handled in theory is always a good idea before purchasing a plan. This being said, avoid paying too much for additional space it’s unlikely the business or firm will need by planning ahead.

Location Matters
Most media warehousing companies set up shop in busy city centers that position themselves in a location where everyone’s within reach. It pays to consider things, however, like proximity to the business that needs service, in addition to location in general. Pick the company that can service specific firms best.

Whittemore Enterprises: A Company History

Whittemore Enterprises: A Company History

Whittemore Enterprises: A Company History

Whittemore Enterprises is a California-based company that has been refurbishing and selling medical equipment for three decades. The international market for refurbished medical equipment is thriving, with experts predicting a growth rate of well over 8 percent annually. Once confined to developing nations, the demand for such equipment has spread to developed economies as well. Within the next five years, market analysts say the sector will represent a $9 billion portion of the global economy.

Whittemore Enterprises began as a one-person shop in Bill Whittemore’s garage in 1983. Today, from its Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., showroom and business offices, the company specializes in OR equipment sales, offering after-sale support, warranties, and repair services.

Like other firms in the burgeoning aftermarket sector, Whittemore Enterprises has financing plans for customers who make large purchases. In a rapidly changing health care environment, hospitals and nursing homes are turning to the secondary market for low-cost devices, taking advantage of aggressive discounting. It is not unusual for refurbished medical equipment to sell for 50 percent of its original price.

Whittemore frequently performs custom refurbishing on specific items, allowing buyers to enter the process early. That way, specialized equipment can be rebuilt according to exacting requirements.

Look at it in another way; at least you won’t have to ask strangers to take your picture. You and your friend can take turns taking each other’s pictures.

  6. Go local: Ditch the 5 star hotel and tours. Go for what locals are doing. They’re guaranteed to be fun, cheap and insightful. You won’t have to contend with those expensive tourist gimmicks here.

Small Spot, Big Problem

I live in the wonderful state of NJ, and roofing concerns were the farthest thing from my mind last spring. That is, until I noticed a tiny brown spot on the ceiling of my living room. I still did not give it a second thought, and just went about my daily routine. That was one of the biggest mistakes I ever made.

I live by myself, and tend to think I am fairly smart when it comes to taking care of things around the house. That’s why when I noticed the spot, I thought to myself that I would just keep an eye on it and follow up if it changed at all. Little did I know that once you notice a ceiling spot, the damage to your roof and interior has most likely already been done. The spot didn’t change for weeks, then the snows came. During the winter months, I stayed warm and dry, still keeping an eye on my little brown ceiling spot. When the days warmed up and the snow started to melt, my tiny spot changed overnight into a huge discolored area on my ceiling. That is when I panicked and called a NJ roofing company that had been recommended to me. They came out the very next day and after about a 20 minute inspection informed me that my roof shingles were damaged over that area. I also had water damage inside the attic from the leak. On top of that, the insulation around the leak was no longer any good and had to be replaced as well. Luckily everything was able to be fixed as good as new within a few weeks.

I learned my lesson, and the next time I notice a tiny spot I won’t keep an eye on it. I will call an expert like those at American Home Remodeling to come take a look for me.

Navigating Divorce Waters

One of the hardest decisions a married couple may have to make is deciding to get a divorce. This may be due to a variety of different reasons, but none of them make the decision any easier. The first thing you should do is to hire good divorce attorneys, and in NJ there are many from which to choose.

Once you have made the decision to follow through with divorce proceedings, you should immediately hire a lawyer. It is not advisable to represent yourself when it comes to something of this magnitude, even if the divorce is not going to be contested. A good lawyer can make sure all aspects of your particular situation are taken into consideration. Some things they will discuss with you are visitation, custody, and child support if there are children involved. They will also help you decide on the dispensation of marital assets including the house, any vehicles that are owned, and finances. They will also discuss distribution and payment of any debt that is owed from the marital union. Your NJ divorce attorneys will also guide you from beginning to end as to what paperwork needs to be filed. They will take care of setting up mediation, if desired, and court dates. You can also count on them to listen to your individual story, as everyone’s needs will be different. No matter what the reason, divorce can be a painful process. Your attorney will help you through these rough waters with compassion and will make it as easy as possible. Hiring a divorce lawyer will ensure that your legal rights are being taken into consideration throughout the entire process.

If you are considering divorce, please contact the lawyers at Murano & Roth, LLC. They will be happy to provide you with a consultation and answer any questions you might have.

Getting the Message

One of my most favorite things to read are electronic church signs. They often have a religious message that is also humorous and captures my attention. It also makes me think. I haven’t often put a lot of thought into where those signs actually come from, though. Now that I know there are companies that create them, I’m going to make it my personal mission to learn more about them.

I didn’t realize that the same type of company that makes a church sign will also make the signs for schools and hospitals. It’s funny how you can look at a sign and appreciate the message but not truly see the sign. You often only see the words that are printed on the sign. People often overlook something so basic and don’t appreciate it. Most of us don’t appreciate the sign and really, we should. The  sign is what makes it possible for us to get the message. I admit to liking loud and bright signs. They always make me pay attention. I am just as likely to read a sign for Joe’s Chicken Shack as I am a deeply religious message, if the sign is bright and colorful. A big sign with bright colors can be the best marketing tool that a business has. Black and white ads in a local newspaper won’t garner you as much attention as a nice bright sign. One of the best aspects of a sign is that you have the ability to change the message at will. I often see people outside working on their signs. I’m always curious as to what the message is going to be. I often drive by the business a little later so I can see the completed message. It’s kind of like a mystery to me, and I’m never happy until I read the last page. If you’d like information about signage, you can visit BuyDirectSigns.com.

The Dangers of Oil Tank Removal

The author is an oil tank removal NY based expert who has worked with leading fuel tank removal companies such as Enviro-Tech Services.

Does your household have an underground oil tank that needs removal? If so, I urge you to hire a professional fuel tank remover to handle the task. Their services may not come cheap, but it’s a small price to pay so you can avoid all the hazards associated with unskilled oil tank removal.

The greatest danger associated with unskilled oil tank removal is that of oil spillage. As a layman, you may not know how to handle oil tanks in a way that minimizes the possibility of spillage or leakage. Should any of the tank’s contents spill out onto the ground, there is a likelihood that the oil will leach into the soil and surrounding water bodies, posing a severe health hazard to yourself and your community. Spilled oil is also a fire hazard. If you are unaware of the spillage, even simple activities such as welding or home barbecues can set off a raging fire that threatens to consume your precious home. Safe oil tank removal requires specialized equipment. You won’t even be able to buy this equipment at your local home depot, much less use it effectively, so hiring a professional oil tank remover is your best option.

In addition, if an oil tank remains buried for an extended period of time, the interaction between the oil tank, petroleum gases and gases in the surrounding soil sometimes produces toxic gases that can cause brain damage or even death if directly inhaled. That’s why all professional oil tank removers wear protective equipment when handling buried fuel tanks. If you thought you could remove an oil tank in your t-shirt and shorts, you’ve got another think coming. Why expose yourself to unnecessary risk? Let the professionals do it – it’s what they’re paid for!

As you can see, the removal of underground oil tanks is not a task for the faint-hearted and definitely not a task to be attempted by laymen.

Air Conditioning and Comfort

Air conditioning in Tampa, FL is an absolute must. There are a lot of people that retire down to Florida because they’ve had enough of the harsh winters up north. However, once they get there, the heat hits them like a ton of bricks. I speak from experience. I’m one of the people that went to Florida for the heat and then ended up living with my air conditioning going all of the time.

One of my favorite creature comforts is the air conditioner. I can’t really live without it. I have it in my house, in my car, and in my office. I thought I was so smart by booking my one year wedding anniversary to Florida. In June. During a heatwave. Hindsight is really 20/20 and I’d never do it again. When I got on the plane at Logan International Airport, it was cold. I had on long jeans and a sweatshirt. A mere three and a half hours later, we landed. When I stepped off the plane I had expected to feel the sunshine and feel rejuvenated. Instead, I started to whine that it was so hot and I needed the air conditioning. We went over to the car rental desk and asked for a car. I quickly piped up with “And make sure it has air conditioning.” I got the car with the a/c. Then we checked into a hotel with air conditioning. A few hours later, our air conditioner stopped working. I made frantic phone calls to the front desk and insisted someone come fix it immediately. They managed to get a repairman over to our room within a couple of hours and get it fixed. Never in my life have I appreciated a repairman as much as I did that man. There’s a lesson to be learned in my failed vacation. Always plan ahead and always use a company that has skilled HVAC and air conditioning repair people on their payroll.

The Truth About NYC Florists

Choosing to Sue

One of the sweetest people I know recently lost her only daughter in an automobile accident. I don’t know if she will ever recover from the
loss of her only child. She is devastated. To compound her grief, it was not necessary and could have been prevented had the person behind
the wheel of the other car not chosen to drink and drive. The drivers blood alcohol level was far above the limit. My friends’ grief is insurmountable but I am angry. I am angry that the person who did this will go on with their life while the life of this young girl is
over. I am angry that my friend will have to spend the rest of her life without the love and companionship of her beautiful and talented
child. She will never go to her wedding or experience the births of her grandchildren at her daughters side. She will never hold the hands of her grandchildren and they will not be near her in her old age. I don’t think it is right and I am encouraging my friend to contact a personal injury lawyer in the Houston area of Texas. Something has to be done to try to assure that what this person has done to my friend and her daughter, will not be done to another person.

I did some research online and found that there is a law office in this area who has successfully prosecuted for this crime. It is The Law Firm of Alton C. Todd. I am going to encourage my friend to contact these people once she is better able to cope with the subject. If you know someone who has lost a loved one because of the acts of someone who is impaired by alcohol or drugs, you may want to pass on this information as well.

The Best Places to Sell Used College Textbooks

Selling your used college textbooks is not as hard as it may seem. Many students have textbooks from prior semesters just sitting around taking up space. You are never going to use them again so why not get some money for them. Many students are shocked at the cost of textbooks when the semester starts and look for used textbooks in a variety of places. Therefore, here are some tips for places to sell your books instead of using them as coasters. 

On Campus

Selling your books back to the college you attend is the ideal situation. The only problem with that being sometimes the books are outdated as guidelines and text are updated yearly and new textbooks are coming out every semester. The college bookstore usually gives a lower price than other places as well. If you need the money quickly though, this is your best option. 

Direct Sale

Another way to quickly sell your used college textbooks is by posting on the bulletin board on campus for other students to see. There are rules for this however and they vary with each college so check the rulebook first. 

Online

Everyone knows that you can sell anything online. Used textbooks are no exception. Go online to places like e bay and list the books you wish to sell. This is not the quickest way to sell them but it will eventually bring in the money and get the books out of your space. 

Off Campus

Many of the larger campuses have used bookstores right around the corner from them. There are also many bookstores that specialize in buying used college textbooks, find one, and see how much they will give you for each book. You will also get more money than you would selling your books on campus. If you are looking to sell your used textbooks and need more information, bucks4books can be a big help.

What Affects HRSDC’s Labor Market Opinions?

If you are a foreigner applying for a temporary Canadian work permit through the Actyl Group, you will be familiar with the accelerated labour market opinion scheme. If you receive a favorable labor market opinion, your chances of getting your work permit immediately skyrocket. That’s why it’s important to understand the different factors that Human Resources and Skills Development Canada take into account when they draft labor market opinions for foreign workers.

The first criterion is the authenticity of the job offer. This may sound a little puzzling at first, but you must remember that many would-be immigrants try to gain entry into Canada each year by falsifying job offers. There is actually a huge market for these fake job offers, so the HRSDC needs to correspond with your employer to make sure that the job offer you have received is genuine. Of course, the Actyl Group only recruits expatriates for existing job vacancies in reputable companies, so you needn’t worry too much about this criterion. (more…)

Breast Augmentation Implications and Benefits

Why Women do It

The decision to do an augmentation to a woman’s breasts comes up very often in cases where she wants some level of control over her overall
appearance. The breasts are a fundamental part of the reproductive and nurturing aspects of women and medical procedures which augment a
woman’s breasts are crucial. Some women perceive that a larger bust line will increase their attractiveness to the opposite sex, while some want
their clothes to fit better.  Others are more interested in escaping teasing. ‘Itty bitty titty committee’ jokes have put millions in the hands of plastic surgeons in California, Chicago and Florida, which represent some of the highest numbers totaled by state. Some women who are more amply blessed up top might do breast reduction surgeries to alleviate back pains or even possible muscular dystrophy. For many American women who consider breast implants, Chicago, California and Florida are the states most likely chosen for surgery, since these states have the most qualified doctors in the nation. In Florida, Tampa cosmetic surgery is widely known and Stern Cosmetic Surgery is famous for it.

State Law

Many state laws permit any trained medical surgeon to practice cosmetic surgery as long as the individual can prove there was specific course of study pursued to achieve this end. State and Federal laws apply and taxes on these practices are also different from other medical facilities. For
the procedure of breast implants Chicago stands to earn as much as 9% from the bill. Reputable surgeons are not easy to find and word of mouth is key to helping the business grow. Breast augmentation is also a very touchy subject, so women have a greater tendency to keep hush about it.
It’s not the proudest thing to consider, so the need for secrecy is clear.

Making the right Choice

Breast augmentation is not for everyone. Women below the age of 22 are advised against it, because their development has not been completed. Pregnancy and childbirth will also present more complications. These decisions should always be guided by a medical professional as well as a spouse, family member or someone in whom the woman can confide.

Visit the http://sterncosmeticsurgeryoftampabay.com/  website, to learn more about physicians and surgeons in the Florida area dedicated to breast augmentation and other forms of cosmetic surgery such as liposuction, tummy tuck and facial procedures.

Scientists and Clean Supplies

Clean room supplies are supplies that are manufactured and produced in a clean and sterile environment. There are many different reasons as to why someone would need to use clean room supplies. A scientist is someone who would greatly benefit from the use of this type of supply.

A scientist is someone who frequently works in a sterile area. They may be working with dangerous chemicals or biological components. It is of the utmost importance that their work area be free of any particles that could skew their data. If a scientist was working on a theory about cells and they were to use a contaminated piece of equipment then their results would not be usable. The data would all have to be thrown away and the experiment would need to be started again. This could be a very costly mistake in different ways. The financial cost could be quite high. The reputation of the scientist would also be at risk. A reputable scientist is one who would use caution when choosing his or her work tools. They would be extremely careful when it came to contaminating their specimens. This is one of the reasons that a scientist should always use clean room products for their work.

Ordering supplies of this nature is relatively easy. You can go online, phone, or fax in an order and have it delivered at your convenience. It is a good idea that you order in bulk so that you are never caught in a situation where you must decide between using a non-sterile product or having to forgo your research while waiting on a shipment. Having the right tools and equipment on hand can up your productivity and increase your confidence in your work product. People will be more likely to believe you’re a credible scientist when you are dedicated to using the right materials.

Ecommerce troubles can damage your website

Ecommerce sites are sometimes poorly designed. That goes without saying. What is maddening is a shopping cart site that doesn’t provide basic information.

When designing for ecommerce, know what you need to close the sale:

  • Measurements. Everything from furniture to sporting goods, from clothes to jewelry, should be catalogued with exact dimensions. When people shop in brick-and-mortar stores they can bring a measuring stick (such as for furnishings) or just eyeball it or try it on (for clothes or jewelry). Allow e-customers to feel secure about skipping that step.
  • Components: Again, in brick-and-mortar, a customer can feel the fabric, see the color, test the weight. Provide all this information online.
  • Includes: Batteries? An extra stylus? A complimentary pack of mints? Whatever is included with your shipment should be carefully spelled out.
  • Shipping costs: If you haven’t found a way to offer free shipping you are going to be left behind. Make sure any additional costs are carefully spelled out: Don’t surprise people on checkout! Offer free shipping as a premium for Facebook likes or retweets in order to boost your social signal.

Clean Room Supplies

A clean room, which is also known as a white room, is a room that is free of pollutants. These pollutants can include dust particles, aerosol particles, chemical vapors and airborne microbes. These types of environments are usually common in scientific labs or manufacturing plants. Businesses that use cleanroom supplies include scientific, manufacturing, and health-related industries. In a place where products must be sterile, clean room supplies are often used. The controlled work place setting can be properly maintained when these supplies are used. Some of the items that are offered are gloves, paper, pens, tacky mats, wipes, swabs and pharmacy supplies. The gloves are important, as many germs can travel from the hands. Gloves are made from different materials like latex and nitrite, and are manufactured in a place that is sterile. Clean room clothing and apparel is helpful in keeping pollutants from outside clothes from entering the work place. White room clothes come lint and particle free, and can come in disposable form. Items like hoods, coveralls, boot covers and face masks can help keep a controlled room clean. Pharmacy supplies are equally important and the policies and procedures must be followed precisely. There is a wide variety of testing done in controlled settings, and the supplies need to be guaranteed germ-free. These pharmacy products include beakers, glassware, tape, mops, clothing and spatulas.  Chemicals and cleaners still need to be used, no matter how sterile a room is. It is important to disinfect the supplies after use, and keep up with proper hand washing techniques.  Maintaining a controlled environment doesn’t have to be hard or stressful, as long as the right procedures are followed and the best sterilized equipment is used. Clean room supplies come from some of the best, high quality companies in the United States of America. Sanitary bags and packaging are used to ship tested products.

If you are in need of venue ideas for your daughter’s special day, you may want to consider the following options:

1. Hotels




A local hotel in your area is a good option for a Sweet 16 party. Hotels are well equipped and they have ballrooms and event halls for special occasions like birthdays and weddings. They have enough manpower to cater to large numbers of guests and they can also cover catering for your party. 

2. Restaurants



Many restaurants accommodate private parties. If your daughter has a favorite restaurant that is large enough to accommodate all her guests, then booking it for her party might be a good option. If you book a restaurant for the party, you won’t have to worry about hiring a caterer for food and beverages. All you’ll have to take care of are party decorations and activities. 

3. Concert Hall/ Music Lounge

 

Concert halls have become a popular venue for Sweet 16 birthday parties. If your daughter has a particular band in mind that she would like to play at her party or she wants a dance-themed Sweet 16 party, then a concert hall is a good place to book. Of course, you’ll have to bring your own food and decorations but this shouldn’t be much of a problem if you coordinate with a Sweet 16 NJ party planner during the preparations. 

Once you have set a budget for the event, you can narrow down your venue choices and give your daughter the freedom to choose which venue she thinks would best suit her party.
