Foursquare started as a social network in 2009 that let users “check in” at different landmarks and businesses. Since then, it’s adapted to the changing mobile scene and enabled search functionality, which includes business contact information.

And while it may seem like Foursquare wouldn’t have a big usership – Facebook lets you do the same thing, after all – they still have 45 million users after a huge rebound in 2013. Now, Foursquare has a database of 75 million businesses around the world that helps people find what they want on the go. In other words, if you have a physical storefront somewhere, Foursquare is a potential goldmine in foot traffic, especially if you’re in a city. Continue reading “US vacation companies reviews”

Whether you’re looking to build a website for yourself, a website for your small business now or for the future, a simple online store or just want to save money, moving to a cheaper web hosting provider, we’ve got you covered. Extra details about vpswala.org

WordPress hosting is for people who want to build their sites on the back of the popular WordPress content management system (CMS) from WordPress.org. There are multiple ways to set up shop using this free, open-source blogging and site-building platform. You gain the most web-building functionality if you create a self-hosted site. This typically involves transfering the free WordPress CMS to server or signing up for a web host’s optimized WordPress plan. With an optimized plan, the host automatically handles backend stuff, so you don’t have to worry about updating the plug-ins and CMS, and enabling automatic backups. In these instances, the WordPress environment typically comes pre-installed on the server.

Limitless Hosting offers web hosting, VPS, and game servers. It also does reseller hosting and rovides DDoS protection of up to 250 Gbps. For gamer servers, there is a control panel with array of features such as auto-restart and backup system. They also preinstall and maintain all the software you need on your server. Among the hosting features include unlimited mailing disk space, IP tables firewall, SEO and marketing tools, cPanel, 99.9% uptime, monthly backups, CloudLinux, instant activation, free SSL, virus scanner, and many others. Limitless Hosting is best know for offering one of the lowest, if not the lowest pricing plan available today. And all the prices among their plans and packages are comparatively more affordable compared to other web hosting providers.

They are famous for their fast and high quality support, known as ‘Heroic Support’. All Liquid Web hosting servers are highly tuned for speed, performance, and security making it a completely hassle-free hosting solution. Their WordPress hosting option includes staging sites, automatic updates, and an intuitive dashboard to manage all your sites in one place. There’s a reason why top companies like Motorola, Red Bull, ESPN, Audi, and FedEx use Liquid Web.

When you have a dedicated server, it means you are renting one physical server from a hosting company. You can have full control (called “root” permissions in Linux) if you want it. With a dedicated server, you don’t have to worry about other websites on a shared server taking up your resources and slowing your website down. A dedicated server is generally the highest level of server you would need if your online business grows into a presence that is getting a lot of website traffic. While the costs of a dedicated server are significantly higher than shared hosting, your business will be at a point that can easily afford the necessary costs of having your own server.

Movie News : Vikram Vedha turned out to be a blockbuster hit of 2017. The film, which had Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi in the lead roles, is a crime thriller about a notorious don and a ruthless police officer. Directed by filmmaker couple Pushkar and Gayatri, the film was lauded by the audience from all walks of life. It was earlier confirmed that the film is getting remade in Hindi and the producer of the Tamil version Y Not Studios took to Twitter to share that they are teaming up with Reliance Pictures and Neeraj Pandey for the Hindi remake. Meanwhile, it is now rumoured that the film is getting remade in Telugu with Balakrishna and Rajasekhar playing the roles of Vijay Sethupathi and Madhavan respectively from the original version.

Sport news : Virat Kohli will soon be seen wearing No 18 on his white flannels as the ICC has allowed Test-playing nations to have the players sport their names and numbers on their jerseys. The move is aimed at popularising the longest format of the game. The English county sides as well as the Australian state sides playing the Sheffield Shield are used to wearing whites with names and numbers on the back but this will be an altogether new experience for the Indian team, who will play the second Test of the World Championship against West Indies wearing numbered white shirts. “Yes, it starts from August 1 for the World Test Championship. It is a part of the wider plan to promote Test cricket,” Claire Furlong, ICC’s GM Manager (Strategic Communications) said on Friday.

Auto news : Toyota Motor Corp and Suzuki Motor Corp said they planned to produce electric vehicles (EVs) and compact cars for each other to better compete with fast-changing technologies in the global auto industry. The agreement follows an initial R&D tie-up announced by Japan’s No. 1 and No. 4 automakers in 2017, and will see more vehicles produced by Suzuki for Toyota, one of the world’s biggest carmakers. Although Suzuki is far smaller, it is a dominant force in the fast-growing Indian market. The two automakers have been pooling their strengths. Toyota is a leader in hybrid technology and is investing heavily in automated driving, while Suzuki specialises in affordable compact cars. Many automakers have struggled to keep pace with ballooning investment in EVs and self-driving cars. Under the latest agreement, Suzuki will source gasoline hybrid systems for cars it sells worldwide from Toyota, which pioneered hybrid vehicles with the Prius more than 20 years ago, the companies said in a joint statement.

visit Australia Post and signup to a PO Box Facility
Install dummy or real security cameras
Sign up for Australia Post delivery notices.

Abel is also running a hydro products / home brewing business, you can check it here https://hobbyhydroandhomebrew.com/. Here are some home brewing advices :

Control the Fermentation Temperature

Now that you’ve chilled and aerated the wort and pitched an appropriate amount of yeast, it’s almost time to sit back and let the yeast cells do their thing. But first you need to make sure they’re at a comfortable temperature so they can do their best work. I say “comfortable” because yeast cells can reproduce and convert sugar into alcohol and CO2 in a wide range of temperatures. However, each strain has a narrower optimal temperature range. You can find the recommended fermentation temperatures for each strain on the manufacturers’ websites. Most American and English ale strains will perform best in a range of about 63?F-68?F. If you ferment cooler, you run the risk of an incomplete fermentation. If you ferment much hotter, the yeast can produce more fruity esters than are desirable as well as harsher, higher alcohols.

To keep your fermentation in check, find a cool place that doesn’t see a lot of temperature fluctuations. Also keep in mind that the yeast will produce heat while it’s reproducing and creating alcohol, so temperature of the fermenting beer may be 5 to 7 degrees warmer than the ambient room temperature. If you have trouble finding a place that’s cool enough, Joe Postma has a few tips for adjusting your temperature.

Get the big(ger) auto-siphon.

Whether you are transferring from the kettle to the primary fermentor or racking to the keg, the auto-siphon is your primary tool. Most beginning brewing setups include a 5/16″ auto-siphon. These usually cost about $10 when purchased on their own, but for just $4 more, you can get a ?” racking cane that will save you a ton of time getting that precious liquid moved from vessel to vessel. It wasn’t until my fortieth batch of homebrew that I moved to the larger size-something I wish I had done on batch one. Learn more about auto-siphons.

6 years old ukrainian boy helps childrens in Africa!

February 24, 2019 by Marie Poppins

This is a story about how sometimes mass media has a dramatic influence on our decisions and how they can change people’s life for the better. The fate of children in the villages of Togo, who have to work hard so their parents can search for food to eat, has always been of little concern to others, except perhaps the children themselves. Jeremies Pimizi, head of Fly for Live Charity, had once been such a child. He was born and raised in Blacksmiths Village in Kara Province.

For five long years, Jeremy sought help and support for the youngest residents of his village by writing to various international foundations and successful Togolese businesspeople. But all his efforts were in vain.

Thanks to Jeremy, his native village was visited by a crew of RT international TV channel. The crew told the story of the blacksmiths’ village and produced a documentary film on the difficult life of children in Togo under the title “Togo: Tough to Survive.”

As it turned out, it was after watching this documentary about the life of young children in Togo that a small boy of the same age from a different continent decided that he had to come for a visit and provide all the necessary assistance he could.

The boy’s name is Andrii Fednov. He is six-years-old, he is a student at an ordinary school in Ukraine, and a footballer. After watching the film about the life stories of children from Blacksmiths Village and Damad village, Andrii decided to give them a helping hand, and told his father, Ukrainian traveler Pavlo Fednov, about the children in Africa who would really like to have their own football and that this would make them happy. Andrii said that he wanted to go to Africa and give the children his own football, and added that they also had to buy food and other necessary items.

After watching the film, Andrii’s father promised him that they would go to Togo by all means and will help the children when they have raised enough money for that.

The saddest thing about the life of rural children in Togo is that poverty forces them to work hard in conditions that some adults would probably not manage, instead of going to school, learning, growing and developing.

Many of these young children abandon their homeland and travel to Nigeria to find a job and earn a living. Often, though, instead of getting a real job, the children find themselves working on plantations as slaves. They have to endure 12-14-hour days just for food.

Nigerian plantation farmers view young Togolese as sub-humans, and would often force famished and sick workers to toil in the fields. Many of these young people never return to their homeland again or see their families.

Playing street football is perhaps the only joy for residents of Blacksmiths Village, Damad Village and many other villages in Togo.

On those rare occasions when the village falls silent, when no clanking is heard from the forges, and when dozens of hammers in thin hands of the children stop crushing pieces of rock, the boys, overcoming the pain from their injuries, pick up a ball they made of old nylon bags and tied all around with an old rope, and a full-scale football battle begins.

Then a real miracle happens, when children, tired and exhausted after a long day at work, race around their improvised football pitch, argue hotly about breaking the rules and even demonstrate various football tricks they had seen somewhere.

At that time, they are joyous and excited, filled with much emotion and feelings, which they lack so badly when on ordinary days they have to do lots of hard, routine work.

After one of the boys from Blacksmiths Village told the film crew that he wanted a real football, Andrii, 6, and his father Pavlo traveled to Togo.

It was not easy, even for such an experienced traveler as Pavlo Fednov to organize such an expedition. Andrii had to be thoroughly prepared for the trip: get vaccinated against yellow fever and other diseases, select effective and safe medications to treat malaria and other tropical diseases that are very harmful and toxic and represent a considerable danger to anyone, especially children.

They were met by Jeremies who took them to their hotel for the night. In the early morning, the three of them went shopping together at nearby stores and markets.

The guests from Ukraine bought piglets, a lot of rice and other food, various necessities and hygiene items and many other things they knew the villagers would appreciate. Andrii offered advice to his father, and personally selected quite a few products for the residents of Blacksmiths Village.

The road to the Blacksmiths Village was not easy and ran through almost the entire country from its south-western to its north-eastern corner, but by the evening the charity cargo was delivered to its final destination and the entire village gathered to celebrate.

Andrii gave the children their new footballs, candy and stationery products, and the older residents of the village got

gifts and groceries. The boy also presented the villagers a hefty sum of money to help them meet their needs.

Meanwhile, Pavlo cooked traditional Ukrainian foods on an open fire. The villagers could not pronounce the names of those dishes but the great spicy aroma that flowed all over the village made almost every adult at Blacksmiths Village come out to join in the feast.

The fabulous dinner was provided to more than 150 people, and the children received many good emotions not only from the sport games: their faces virtually shone with happiness after they had their fill of sweets, drinks and other treats.

As they sat around the fire as one large family, Jeremies and other residents showed their inquisitive nature as they asked many questions of Pavlo about his life.

They found out that Pavel’s life was decided once and for all when he was just five-years-old. One wonderful day, he decided to run away from his daycare because he wanted to walk around the city, visit the amusement park and even go for a swim in the river. His teachers were hysterical, and his parents were shocked when they found out that their child was missing.

As Pavlo grew, he felt more and more attracted to traveling and seeing the world. Before turning 20, he had travelled all over Ukraine and dreamt of embarking on a grand world tour.

It was then that he decided to visit 100 countries of the world before he turned 30. By 27, he had visited more than 35 countries, and in the period from November 2016 to October 2017 he undertook a global tour visiting more than 120 countries of the world.

https://www.instagram.com/traveler_explore_world/

Pavlo stayed up talking to the villagers into the early hours of the morning. They drank coffee, and Pavlo told them about his journeys, interesting and beautiful places that he had visited, the most famous cities of the world, and nature in various regions of the planet. The residents of Blacksmiths Village did not want him to go, and asked him many interesting questions that Pavlo was happy to answer.

Having spent the night in a village hut, Jeremy took Pavlo and Andrii back to the capital so that they could purchase more of the same products and gifts for residents of Damad Village, located in the vicinity of Lomé at the foot of Mount Agou.

Jeremies said that the Ukrainian team planned to go to the other village the next day because later that evening they were scheduled to leave and go back home.

And so these plans were implemented. When they came to Damad Village, the Fednovs, accompanied by the head of Fly for Live, presented their gifts and groceries to the adult residents of the village, and gave footballs to all the children.

As he told our publication about the visit of the Ukrainian guests, Jeremies said, with a sad smile that he had not seen so many happy children together in a very long time, and added that now he was confident that there existed people out there in the world who would respond to a call for help, even if they live on the other side of the planet.

Calgary office movers

February 23, 2019 by John Concrane

When you close the door on your old house for the last time, it’s a great idea to leave the new owners a welcome pack.

If you happen to have older kids or teenagers you can get them involved using the same techniques or maybe a simple promise of a night out on their new town. Take them out to see a movie, go to the mall or out to eat at a local popular eatery. Try being creative, Calgary is a fun town for all ages. Museums, theme parks, theatres, plays, sport complexes or school groups.

So heres a summary of what are some very useful moving tips (from Calgary office movers) :

Moving house costs.

A lot.

Why would you want to add to this cost by paying to move things you don’t use or need?

We all have items in our house that have long been forgotten – usually ending up in the garage, loft or shed, but they could be lurking anywhere.

Before you start your packing is the perfect time to go through everything and have a good sort out.

Moving is a fresh start, so the last thing you want to take with you are things that you don’t need or use any longer.

Decluttering before you sell means that you only move what you really need – and you will not only save money by doing so, but you will also save time in the new house by not having to unpack and deal with all that stuff in the future.

I call that a win-win!

Take a look behind your living room TV.

What do you see?

Chances are it’s a mass of wires and plugs – working perfectly for you but confusing to say the least.

A really great tip is to get some coloured stickers** and stick the same colour to each socket and each end of the cable – so that you can easily set everything technical up in your new home.

To go one step further – why not take a photo of the setup so you can have a visual reminder as well.

Moving when you have children can have its own set of issues. Children often don’t want to move as they like routine and are unsure of the unknown.

If you get them involved in the process and excited about the move then it can take this uncertainty out of the equation.

Get them to pack their own box for the move, and remember to pack this into your car on moving day (the last thing you want is for this specific box to go missing.).

In it you can have things like: –

Favourite teddy / doll
Book to read
Bedroom items to create their own space asap
Nightlight / reading lamp / torch
Toys
Photos
Change of clothes and bedtime clothes
Bathroom bag

You can then get them to unpack this themselves which will help them feel right at home immediately.

There’s nothing worse than getting to a new house and having to open all the boxes to find the night light they won’t sleep without..

Before you rent a truck, you should assess how much stuff you have and try to sort and get rid of things you don’t need or haven’t used in a very long time. It will not only save you time and money when packing and unpacking but also ensures you start off in your new home without too much clutter.

While using a truck rental company’s estimate when selecting the right size of truck or trailer to rent may be helpful, keep in mind that this is merely an estimate. Some people have much more substantial furnishings, more things, and tons of stuff crammed into every closet and cabinet. Other packrats even have entire garages jam-packed with items from floor to ceiling. A smart way to better estimate a suitable truck size is to attempt to cluster your things together, such as in an unused formal dining room, a garage or another large space. This effort also helps you prep for the move. When you pack a place full of items and measure the area, you will have a better idea about the right truck size for your needs.

An important factor many people overlook is the distance of the move. If you are relocating to a new home in-town or just a short distance away, you may feel comfortable estimating your truck needs on the low end. After all, you can always make two trips if you run out of truck space. On the other hand, if you are making a long distance move, it is not practical to make multiple trips. Estimating on the higher end may be beneficial. If you get in a bind, you can always rent a trailer to tow behind your car for additional space.

The steps that you take to prepare for moving day can make or break your overall moving experience. Apply these tips to estimate better the truck size that is suitable for your needs.

You will likely find that a larger truck (see medium sizes below) costs the same or sometimes less than a small truck. This is because most companies don’t have an extensive inventory of small trucks whereas they usually have a large inventory of medium trucks.

Medium truck sizes are best used for 1-2 bedroom apartments as well as small homes. We typically don’t recommend this size to anyone with more than 1200 SqFt of living space.

We know choosing your rental truck size can be difficult, especially if your moving long distance. If you still need more help we recommend reviewing another one of our relocation guides, choosing a rental truck size. We hope that our guide to choosing the correct rental truck size was helpful for you. We leave you with some final tips and advice not otherwise covered in this blog:

If you plan to pack and load your moving truck by yourself or with help from your friends you should defer to a larger truck size. Professional movers are trained to maximize the overall space, whereas those not professionally trained may not be able to achieve the same level of efficiency. If you are considered about space consumption consider hiring moving labor to properly load your truck.

So you found a new place! It’s all wonderful and exciting until you start to think about how much crap you have.

Place an extra cotton pad or ball into your powder cosmetics to keep them from breaking.

Grab a box and fill it with all the essentials you’ll need on the first day. Include toilet paper, mugs, teabags, milk, scissors, bin bags and why not add a celebratory tipple? Remember to keep it with you on your journey to your new home, so it doesn’t get mixed with rest of your belongings and lost.

Creating an inventory helps you to keep an eye on all your belongings to make sure nothing is lost throughout the whole moving house process.

Your removal company can create an inventory for you if they have been hired to pack your belongings so this is also worth considering.

Also worth considering is what you actually have in your new home.

Is anything being left (carpets/curtains/furniture etc.), is there fitted storage etc..?

For example – if you’re moving from a house with all fitted wardrobes, and the new house has none, then you will need somewhere to hang your clothes asap – you may therefore want to invest in some rails for the interim while you decide on suitable furniture etc.

Or if you are leaving the curtains in your old house, you will definitely need some sort of window covering at least on the bedrooms windows in the new house (it may be worth asking them if it’s possible for them to leave certain curtains for you).

It will be worth making a shopping list and getting things sorted ahead of time, I’m sure you agree!

Moving a WordPress site to a new host can be deceptively tricky. You follow the checklist, get it all transferred and configured, and everything looks good-until it goes live and something turns up missing or broken. The more complex your site is, the easier it is to lose a file, a plugin, or a page in the move.

First, do some WordPress migration optimization. Think of it as spring cleaning for your site. Look for unwanted files: Find duplicates and files that no longer appear on the live site. Then clear out dead pages. If you have changed your design since the last migration, odds are you have pages that aren’t linked anywhere on the site. Get rid of any plugins or themes you aren’t using, too. Finally, fix any broken links and optimize your database.

When to move ? The lack of having a persistent object caching service available, such as Redis or Memcached, would be a big, yet basic, reason to switch to another hosting provider. Without this, it will be very difficult to scale at a basic level.

Simply put, a WordPress migration is the process of moving a WordPress website from one server to another without affecting its functionality. There are several reasons why you would want to go ahead with this, such as:

– Migrate WordPress site to new better host. In this context, better could mean anything – for example, lower prices or faster loading times.
– Moving WordPress site to new domain.

What do we need in order to complete the transfer process?

1) Domain registrar to change DNS from old server to new one.
2) Hosting credentials.
3) WordPress website credentials.

The migration process takes a couple of hours or more. It depends on many factors such as proper domain setup and hosting configuration and file size. Source: https://wordpressmigrationservices.com/
