Participants can reply any time and anywhere within a wave, and they can edit content and add more participants as a wave develops. It is also possible to rewind waves with the playback functionality, to see what happened, and when.Waves are often shared among a group of friends, associates or a business team with a common goal: perhaps planning a marketing strategy, reviewing sales results or recording meeting notes. Once a Wave is created it becomes a virtual mini-hub that members can add, edit and comment upon at any time.Small Business Project WaveWhere I see tremendous potential is in the combining of so many resources into a single online hub.

The Benefits of Payday Loans

Payday loans are becoming more popular, and more in demand, as the credit squeeze continues. But can you afford to take one? That is a question that many people ask of themselves. And rightly so, because unless they go about it the right way, they can end up paying a massive amount of interest.So, if you feel that you need a payday loan how should you go about it? First, don’t opt for the first online advert you see. Not all payday loans are the same, and you can usually get a deal that suits you. You should look for a deal that has a limited ‘rollover’ period.Although a payday loan should strictly be repaid next payday, many people find themselves unable to do so and it carries on for another month. That is when the rollover comes into play. The rollover involves another fee payment. You don’t pay interest as such with a payday loan: you pay a ‘fee’. For example, with a payday loans of $400 you could pay a $50 fee. That works out at an interest rate of 25% a month, or an APR of 300%. If you miss the payment, then you pay a rollover fee of another $50, so that your APR has suddenly risen to 600%. So a payday loan can be very expensive unless you make sure that you pay it. So, how do you do that?Simple. Make your payment by direct debit from your bank on payday. Make sure that the direct debit is dated for your payday, or as close as possible to it, and you will always have money in the bank when the payment is due. If you are paid on a certain date each month, make the direct debit for that date.The definition of a payday loan is that it is paid back on your next payday after taking out the loan. If you know your payday after taking the loan then you can arrange a direct debit to be applied on that date, and the payment will be made before you can access your account. That way there will be no temptation to spend the money before you pay it back.If payday is a Saturday or Sunday, then you will be paid on the Friday, so arrange the direct debit for the Friday. If you have taken the loan out close to payday, you might have made an arrangement to pay next payday: in that case the same arrangements will apply.If you ever make an arrangement to make repayments over a number of months, then it will be difficult to arrange a single direct debit date, and that kind of payment is not variable: it is made on the same date each month. Many people I know come to an arrangement with their bank in such situations.You can open another account with your bank after discussing your problem with them, and arrange the bank to transfer your payment to that account on payday, and then have the direct debit remove that for your payday loan repayment on the 1st of each month. I know this all sounds a bit complicated, but it works for many people, and helps them to keep clear of rollovers that can end up with them owing more than they borrowed.However, payday loans have many benefits if you are able to make the payment at the right time. It will give you emergency cash when needed, such as an emergency car repair or medical bill, and allow you to pay it back next payday. How often have thought ‘I could pay that in a couple of days – I wish it were payday today’? Well, payday can be ‘today’ with a payday loan, arranged the same day, or at least within 24 hours.So payday loans do have benefits to those that need them, and if you need one then think carefully before taking it, and make sure you get the best deal. The take it and use it well.

Garden Landscapers, Garden Makeovers Or Creations?

Garden Landscapers love good old fashioned garden makeovers or so they like to make you believe. Garden landscapers in essence are those hardy breed of men that are often seen in more cosmopolitan areas hanging off of scaffolding structures making suggestive remarks to ladies passing in the streets below. However, as one rather famous singer pointed out, the times they are a changing.Garden landscapers these days have to be more than just garden builders and planters. Generally, people are demanding more and more from their garden landscapers. Requests such as installing a garden pond, a water feature or water fountain are fast outstripping the more conventional garden makeovers.Garden landscapers are now far more likely to be garden technicians, requiring skills and knowledge of water gardening products, pump flow rates, water lighting requirements, water fountain jumping jets, effects of head of water, stream flow effects and much more. Top class garden landscapers now have to be equipped with garden designers, builders, labourers, water garden technicians, horticulturalists, electricians, fencing contractors along with all the necessary garden machinery and garden supplies to turn your dreams into reality.There is much more than meets the eye to garden landscapers of quality gardens. Landscape gardeners are often found to be spiritual people, often with a drive and desire to improve the environment. Providing a garden rich in nature is often their goal although they also keep in mind the future well being and enjoyment of their human employers.Garden landscapers often have to provide areas for seating, eating, playing and interacting with nature often within the limited space of the garden boundaries. Patios do not get laid on their own, jungle gyms for the children do not magically appear in the night, garden ponds do not dig themselves and as for garden maintenance, I shall say no more. This is where the garden landscaper excels, in those times where the hard gardening begins.Being able to work with natures resources of earth, water, light, wood, rock & stone is what make garden landscapers of quality a commodity unto themselves. Creating shapes, textures and sounds of pleasure within the garden is what sets this breed apart. Given the opportunity to create, garden landscapers will often produce garden makeovers of awe. Turning what was once no more than a backyard into a space of tranquility, inspiration, meditation and admiration is without doubt a skill to be respected.Garden landscaping is an art, a devotion to duty and care beyond sticking a few plants in the ground. Garden landscapers work hard, play hard and smile a lot. They have a joy of heart in the back breaking work they carry out second to none. Working with nature, moulding, sculpting the earth to the requirements of their hosts must come with pressures, but it seems that hardened garden landscapers see this as nothing more than the necessary pursuit of perfection to the senses.Landscape gardeners need nothing more than a place to stay, food to eat and cups of tea or coffee to assist them in their garden makeovers. It is said that in the colder days, hot chocolate is deemed to be their fuel of choice in performing their daily grind. So, the next time you invite garden landscapers to your door, please be aware, they are very, very special !

What are anti-ligature blinds?

Anti-ligature blinds are becoming increasingly popular in a range of different settings. The way these blinds differ from traditional blinds is that they are designed to prevent suicide by hanging.

Initially, uptake for this type of blind was largely restricted to high-risk environments such as psychiatric hospitals and prisons, where suicide is common. In mental health environments and detention centres, suicide via hanging is common and preventative measures must be implemented. A huge range of objects could be used to create a ligature point, meaning anti-ligature systems are highly important.

Over the years, anti-ligature blinds have been supplied to hospitals, schools, student accommodation and even hotels.

How do they work?

There are a range of different systems on the market, but the most reliable could well be the magnetic anti-ligature system. YewdaleKestrel® products utilise load release magnets which separate when a downward force is exerted on the product. This means that the product falls to the ground safely and prevents suicide via hanging.

The magnetic systems used in Yewdale’s products are highly reliable because magnets don’t lose their strength for hundreds of years, guaranteeing a lifetime of lifesaving functionality.

Anti-ligature blinds usually have a magnetic connection point above the blind’s barrel. The blind is easy to reconnect to the magnetic bracket after it has fallen to the floor.

If you are considering an anti-ligature blind, Yewdale is a highly recommended company. Based in the UK, Yewdale produce a wide range of anti-ligature products, commercial blinds, and healthcare products including hospital cubicle tracks and medical curtains.

Yewdale produce other anti-ligature products too including a soft, lightweight en-suite door and other accessories such as soap dispensers, toilet roll holder, shelves and artwork. You can see the full range on the website using the link below.

Complete weight loss strategy

For those who want to lose weight

Research on the causes of obesity, knowledge about weight loss, and various diets for weight loss are updated every year. However, with the update of knowledge and the release of diet pills one after another, the obesity rate continues to rise every year, and there is no sign of wanting to decline. I used to be very, very fat, and I am also a person who is prone to obesity.

So I understand the voices of fat people, I really want to lose weight, but I tried many ways to lose weight at that time without success.

I have tried the common boiled meals on the market, eating less and moving more, but it was not until I tried other diets that I managed to lose weight. After I lost weight, I began to study the essence and method of losing weight, and wrote him in this weight loss strategy article, hoping to help you.

A few key myths about losing weight

The weight loss myth of eating less and moving more

The phrase “eat less and move more” is actually true, but most people do it wrong. Many people think that they should eat less of everything, so they limit their calories to a very low level, and it feels a bit like eating an ultra-low-calorie fairy meal. Then, for the hyperactive part, the first thing that everyone thinks of is aerobic exercise such as running, cycling, etc., but in fact, this is a very short-term and easy way to regain weight, mainly because eating too little is an easy way to lose weight. The reason for the loss of muscle mass, coupled with the fact that aerobic training is not helpful for muscle mass growth, causes the metabolism to drop too much.

Maybe you can lose 5 kilograms in this way, but if your metabolism declines, you will easily regain the weight. And it’s all the fat that gets back up, not the muscle you lose that makes you look fatter than before. This is what we call the yo-yo effect, lose weight, get fat back, get fatter than before, lose weight, get back on Fat, get fatter than before.

Stop taking diet pills and meal replacements

At this time, you may start to seek other ways, eat weight loss meal replacements, taking diet pills, and so on. But believe me, most diet pills will inevitably hurt the body, especially the gastrointestinal tract. You may actually lose weight in the moment, but when your gastrointestinal tract is damaged, you will be fatter than before.

The key to understanding how to lose weight

You must have thought, why some people will not gain weight no matter what they eat, while some people will gain a kilogram the next day after eating a little bread? What is the cause of obesity? This is not a simple answer that can be solved!

You can see the link to the picture below, mainly talking about the influencing factors of obesity, which are very, very complicated.

Image source: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/296290/obesity-map-full-hi-res.pdf

In the middle of this picture is the heat balance

So we can know that calorie balance is very important

But this article doesn’t keep preaching that calorie balance is the key to losing weight like other sites

If you don’t know what calorie balance is, you can probably imagine that our body has calorie consumption (exercise, thermogenesis, basal metabolism), and calorie intake (eating).

When calorie consumption exceeds calorie intake, the weight will drop, so the truth of weight loss is to eat less and move more, very simple. In the short term, it is really possible to simply achieve weight loss by eating less and moving more, but simplicity is not simple, because the operation of the body is very complicated. Many people think that they can control their calorie consumption, that they can achieve a lot of calorie expenditure by running all the time, and that eating fairy meals (low-calorie meals) can reduce calorie intake and then easily lose it.

However, according to research, 90% of people who use calorie control, eat less and move more to lose weight will fail or regain the weight.

Because eating less and moving more for too long, metabolism will easily drop, hormones will easily become imbalanced, and muscle mass will easily be lost. Even if you lose 10 kilograms, you will easily regain weight.

When losing weight, the body is like a factory

For me, the key to long-term weight loss and maintaining good posture is the environment in the body, such as hormones, the level of inflammation in the body, and the gastrointestinal system.

Think of the body as a factory

-Your hormones are the managers and workers of factory operations

-Inflamed condition is how good factory machinery and hardware are

-Calorie intake is wages for factories as well as fuel

If the manager of this factory is an idiot, or if the hardware in your factory is completely rotten, then no matter how it works, it will create a pile of waste. Just as our hormones are already out of balance and the level of inflammation in the body is very high, no matter how much you eat, if you don’t solve the existing problems, it will easily accumulate into fat. It may be easier to understand with a few examples.

Hormones vs Weight Loss

This study looked at the effects of sleep and weight loss

Research source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20921542

Both groups of humans were calorie-restricted, but one group slept 5.5 hours a night and the other 8.5 hours. Both groups lost weight, but the group that slept less lost 55 percent less body fat and 65 percent more muscle mass than the group that slept more. It is equivalent to losing weight, but most of the loss is muscle mass, which reduces metabolism and makes it easy to regain weight later.

There is such a big difference mainly because poor sleep has a negative impact. The imbalance of the secretion of these things will easily increase fat and reduce muscle.

This next study looks at the effect of insulin sensitivity on body composition!

Research source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19471290

Basically, many chronic metabolic diseases, obesity, and poor muscle-building effects are closely related to low insulin sensitivity. Insulin is an anti-catabolic hormone whose main function is to store nutrients in cells. For example, after heavy training, our muscles will be more sensitive to insulin, and the nutrients we eat will be more easily absorbed into the muscles. When insulin sensitivity is low, the nutrients we eat are more likely to be stored as fat rather than absorbed into muscles.

We can simply say that the nutrients in the food eaten by people who are insulin insensitive are more likely to be stored as fat, and the relative fat mass will be much higher than the muscle mass.

To put it simply, the key to losing weight is actually to improve hormones, improve inflammation in the body, and add an appropriate calorie deficit. It is not difficult to achieve a calorie deficit. What is more difficult is how to choose the type of food that suits your body to improve hormones and achieve a long-term good body.

If you only pursue short-term weight loss and rely on a lot of calorie deficits to achieve the effect of weight loss, and then the hormones are still the same after the loss, then I can guarantee that you will gain weight very easily.

With so many ways to eat on the internet, which diet should I try?

When talking about losing weight in Taiwan 30 years ago, everyone would definitely want to use boiled meals

When it came to losing weight five years ago, everyone might think of using a low-sugar diet. When it came to losing weight in the past two or three years, everyone might directly think of the ketogenic diet.

I lost 30kg in 3 months on a low-sugar diet myself for the first time, so I used to believe that a low-sugar diet was the best way to lose weight

But after my long-term understanding of weight loss-related research, genetic cognition, and observation of students, there is no diet that is most suitable for everyone! Although it is said that high-carbohydrate foods will most stimulate insulin secretion, which in turn promotes the storage of nutrients into fat, some people are naturally good at metabolizing carbohydrates, so they can still be healthy and strong after eating high-carbohydrate throughout their lives.

For example, this study compared the responses of people with high and low insulin sensitivity to high- and low-carb diets.

The study concluded:

-For people with high insulin sensitivity, eating high-carb and low-fat to lose weight is very helpful

-However, people who are insulin insensitive use a high-carb low-fat diet to lose fat, but the weight loss effect is not so good.

But on the contrary, studies have also shown that people with low insulin sensitivity have a very good weight loss effect on a low-carb high-fat diet, which shows that improving insulin is very important for weight loss, and it also shows that people with insulin insensitivity are more suitable

Lose weight with a high-carb diet.

So if you have been obese for a long time, you know that you eat carbohydrates easily, or you know that you have diabetes in your family and want to lose fat, then I would suggest that you can start by reducing carbohydrates, which is what we call low carb diet!
