Fate and Phantasms #173: Sherlock Holmes

Yes we’re going out of order, but I have a very good reason for this! ...Well, not really. We were already in the geniuses section, and any excuse to not think about summer while it’s still 40 degrees out is one I’m going to take.

Anyway, today we’re making the man famous for discombobulation, Sherlock Holmes! Track down mysteries, show up everyone else in the party, and kick ass with Baritsu. Easy stuff.

Check out his build breakdown below the cut, or his character sheet over here!

Next up: Chaldea’s other resident genius.

Race and Background

There are some theories about Sherlock’s race, but for simplicity’s sake we’ll call you a Variant Human, giving you +1 Dexterity and Wisdom. You also get Sleight of Hand proficiency for some close-up detective work, and the Keen Mind feat, giving you +1 Wisdom, the ability to always point north, perfect time telling, and the ability to recall anything from the last month in-game, a.k.a. the DM’s nightmare.

You know a lot yourself, but you also know how to build and maintain an archive, so the closest background to match would be the Cloistered Scholar background, giving you proficiency in Nature and Religion. Arcana and history would suit you better, but I’ve got something in mind for that, and good things come to those who wait.

Ability Scores

As you’d probably expect, your Wisdom and Intelligence are pretty freaking high. You are Sherlock Holmes after all. You’re pretty strong, but the reason you’re so scary in a fight is because of your technique, so we’re going with Dexterity here instead. You snort cocaine like it’s going out of style, so your Constitution has to be able to keep up. This does mean your Strength is a bit low, but you’re practically an anime protagonist, there are some things we just can’t get in a balanced build. Finally, dump Charisma. Half the reason you drag Guda along on your cases is to talk people out of thinking you’re the murderer, honestly it’s kind of embarrassing.

Class Levels

1. Rogue 1: You’re a skilled guy, and rogues get skills for days. You get proficiencies in Dexterity and Intelligence saves, as well as four skills- Deception for disguises, and Insight, Investigation, and Perception for cases and clue-catching. You also get Expertise in two skills, doubling their proficiency bonus. Right off the bat I’d suggest Insight and Investigation so you can hopefully get to the bottom of things quickly. Foiling a plan at the last second is thrilling and all, but utterly shutting down a villain is so satisfying.

To help with that, you can use a Sneak Attack once per turn if you’re using a ranged or finesse weapon and either have advantage against a target or a friend within 5′ of them. You also learn Thieves’ Cant, it’s a language that will be especially helpful when you have to navigate the criminal underbelly of a city.

2. Monk 1:None of that was Baritsu though, so we’re bouncing over to monk for some Martial Arts. You can use Dexterity instead of Strength on monk weapons (this does not make them finesse), and spending an action to attack with one also lets you make an unarmed attack as a bonus action. Your unarmed and monk weapon attacks also do at least a 1d4 of damage.

You also get Unarmored Defense, making your AC 10 plus your dexterity modifier plus your wisdom modifier. I don’t care how hot it looks, that corset isn’t armor.

3. Cleric 1: Last multiclass, I swear. Since you can literally make clues appear like magic, we kinda need a bit of magic. Clerics get Spells that they cast and prepare using their Wisdom, which you might have noticed is becoming a pretty important ability for you.

If you want clues, you’ll need knowledge, at least enough to know that the Knowledge domain can help with that. At first level you gain the Blessings of Knowledge, making you proficient in History and Arcana and doubling those proficiencies as well (hey, see what I said about waiting?).

You get three cantrips for joining the clergy, Light gives you some of those cool magnifying spotlights you carry around, Thaumaturgy for some parlor tricks, and Guidance for when you really have to focus.

For first level spells, Command gives you a basic command spell, and Identify teaches you all about the magic affecting an item or creature. Normally that would be more of a research montage, but some times you’re in a hurry.

As far as actually prepared spells go, anything with “Detect” in the name is a good pick.

4. Rogue 2: Now that we’ve got our spread, let’s build some of these classes up. Second level rogues can make Cunning Actions, Dashing, Disengaging, or Hiding as a bonus action. If you already spent your action rifling through someone’s files and they’re about to burst into the room, you’ll thank me.

5. Rogue 3: There’s really only two possible picks for your subclass, and we’re saving the Mastermind for Moriarty. As an Inquisitive, you have an Ear for Deceit, giving your Insight rolls a minimum of 8 on the die. On top of that, your Eye for Detail lets you make Perception and Investigation checks as a bonus action, further speeding up the process. On top of that, your Insightful Fighting uses your bonus action to make an Insight check versus a creature’s Deception check. On a success, you don’t need advantage to make sneak attacks against that creature for up to a minute. Finally, your Steady Aim uses your bonus action to get advantage on an attack if you don’t move that turn. I’d just use your insightful fighting, but your rival might push you to your limit.

This is a lot of stuff to do on your bonus action, and it’s only going to get worse from here.

6. Monk 2: Back at the school of Baritsu, you gain Ki Points that you can spend to make two unarmed attacks, dodge, disengage, or dash as a bonus action. Doing either of the latter two also doubles your jump distance for the turn. You also gain Unarmored Movement, increasing your movement speed by 10 feet while not wearing armor.

7. Monk 3: We need the most technique in the fewest levels, so that means we’re turning to the Way of the Open Hand once more. Your Open Hand Technique gives extra benefits to your flurry of blows. On each hit, the creature either can’t take reactions for a round, must succeed on a dexterity save or be knocked prone, or must make a strength save or be pushed 15′ away.

You can also Deflect Missiles as your reaction, catching an incoming attack and reducing its damage, possibly sending it back at the enemy if you bring it down to 0.

8. Monk 4: Our first Ability Score Improvement will instead be used to make you Observant, bumping up your Wisdom by 1, giving you +5 to passive perception and investigation, and allowing you to read lips. You can also Slow Fall as a reaction to take less fall damage. Hey, any help to survive the Reichenbach is well appreciated.

9. Rogue 4: Back in rogue now, your second ASI is going towards your Dexterity for stronger and more effective attacks, as well as a higher AC. 17′s pretty good for a corset.

10. Rogue 5: Fifth level rogues get an Uncanny Dodge, allowing you to react to an incoming attack and halve the damage.

11. Cleric 2: You didn’t think we forgot about this one, did you? Knowledge clerics get two Channel Divinity options each short rest. Turn Undead is your bog standard option, or you can gain the Knowledge of the Ages, spending an action to gain proficiency in one skill or tool for 10 minutes. Protagonist powers, activate!

12. Cleric 3: Third level cleric, second level spells. Suggestion is a more open ended command spell, and Augury is more “telling the future” than deduction. That being said, you do get Calm Emotions to keep your cool, as well as Find Traps, Locate Object, and Zone of Truth.

13. Rogue 6: You know I’m a sucker for quadrupling things, so for this round of Expertise double up on History and Perception. You’re good at everything, but especially current events.

14. Rogue 7: At this level you get the powerful Evasion feature, turning your failed dexterity saves to avoid damage into successes and successes into no damage at all.

15. Rogue 8: Use this ASI to bump up your Intelligence. It’s a shame we had to wait this long for it, but better late than never.

16. Rogue 9: Your Steady Eye gives you advantage on perception and investigation checks as long as you’re moving at half speed. Unless your DM’s really keen on mapping out rp situations, this is pretty much permanent advantage.

17. Rogue 10: Another ASI, another bump to Intelligence. Does it really do anything? Probably not, but you can feel smug about it regardless.

18. Rogue 11: Your Reliable Talent means you skill rolls are always 10 or greater on checks you’re proficient with. And thanks to your knowledge of the ages, you can be proficient in just about anything.

19. Rogue 12: Use your last ASI to max out your Wisdom for more AC, stronger spells, and more skilled Baritsu.

20. Rogue 13: Your capstone ability is your Unerring Eye, an action to sense illusions, shapechangers, and the like around you. You can sense something’s off, but will have to investigate yourself. You can use this a number of times per long rest equal to your wisdom modifier.

Pros

Your minimum rolls in Insight and Investigation are 27 and 26 respectively, making you an ace detective. Your ability to root out lies, plus your photographic memory, will make any mystery you play through a breeze. (You the player still have to connect the dots, though.) Also, literally being able to see through illusions is a big plus.

Maxed out wisdom also means your open hand techniques are as strong as possible, giving you a good amount of battlefield control to beat down enemies and push them around.

Knowledge of the Ages plus Reliable Talent equals you being really good at everything when you need to be, and you’re much faster a switching things up than Hundred Personas.

Cons

Since we only splashed into monk, your baritsu isn’t that great an option for damage. It also comes with the caveat that you can’t use your sneak attack unarmed, so you will have to carry the murder weapon around with you.

Despite being a melee fighter, your hp is pretty low, making straight confrontations a bad idea.

We really wanted Unerring Eye, but as a consequence we could only get a couple levels of the other classes. This means your ki points and spell slots are rather limited. But I mean, you’re Sherlock freaking Holmes, you’ll know when you need to use them and when you don’t.

How domain registration and website hosting Work

Hstariq

Just now·9 min read

what’s up everyone

in the last 10 years I’ve built almost

70 websites and haven’t gone through the

analytics they’ve been seen by close to

1 million people which is pretty

mind-blowing all of those website

projects were unique however the core

elements of how to set up a website

remain the same every single time this

article is for the beginners out there

that want to build our first website and

are confused by all the tech jargon that

goes along with that process if that

sounds like you stick around because

we’re gonna go through the basics of how

domain registration and website hosting

work and then we’ll discuss what the

various web hosting package types mean

and the pros and cons of each and

hopefully by the end you’ll have a

better understanding of how to choose

the right one for your situation so

let’s start with how websites work and I

created a real simple graphic here to go

over the process of domain registration

and website hosting for this example I

picked some of the big companies out

there Bluehost.com godaddy.com and Hostgator calm I

use all of them personally and bluehost

is most popular for domains but all of

these companies generally offer all

services so bluehost has hosting domains

website builders and Hostgator does the

same exact thing I have had a good

experience with bluehost hosting which is

why I’ve stayed with them from

hosting perspective but I’ve had no

problems with them for a domain

registration so when you register your

domain with bluehost you’re gonna get

access to these DNS settings for each

domain that you register and then when

you sign up with a hosting company like

Bluehost or Hostgator they’re gonna send you their

DNS servers so you sign up with your

bluehost account and they’re gonna send

you likely to DNS servers all you have

to do is go into your bluehost settings

and plug in your bluehost dns servers

that’s literally all you need to get set

up with your website and the DNS server

its function is to translate your domain

into an IP address so all it does is

when you as the visitor go to a website

you know you open up your browser and

type in a domain name it’s going to send

that domain name.

to a DNS server where it maps it to the

IP address of your web host and that’s

where it gets all the files from so

that’s how the website is downloaded so

hopefully that wasn’t too confusing for

you and I hope that this graphic is

simple enough to understand but really

all you need to remember is that when

you register your domain wherever you

access to DNS settings and whatever you

put within those DNS settings that’s

going to define where your website is

hosted now before we go into the hosting

packages we have to figure out what your

goal is you might be one to do one of

many things so the first questions that

you’re gonna want to ask yourself are do

you want to create one website only or

if we project into the future

are you planning to build multiple

websites and as multiple websites mean

two or three or does it mean maybe 10 or

20 and then you have to think about the

software that you’re gonna use to build

the website are you building from

scratch with HTML do you want to use a

content management system like WordPress

are you just going to use templates or a

builder offered by the web hosting

company like bluehost or GoDaddy or are

you planning on doing custom development

and maybe even code with a higher-level

language like PHP or JavaScript and last

but not least consider the traffic of

the website so if you’re just starting

out a website it’s not gonna have high

traffic it’s gonna take a while to build

up the traffic and then even for

established websites they might be low

traffic if they’re local and then on the

other end of the spectrum you might have

a global oriented website based around a

hobby or a general interest that applies

to people worldwide and in those cases

once you get to a point of high traffic

your web hosting options are gonna

change and I have to point this out

you’ll see a lot of people that leave

bad reviews for cheaper web hosting

companies there are people that don’t

consider the beginners experience you

know you can always upgrade there’s

nothing wrong with starting with a

cheaper package and upgrading down the

road when you start getting more traffic

so let’s look at the options that are

going to be available to you on the

majority of web hosting companies across

the Internet

more than likely you’re gonna be

choosing from one of these types of

packages shared hosting reseller hosting

a virtual private server dedicated

hosting cloud hosting and managed

WordPress hosting the first one is

shared hosting and this is the cheapest

the quickest and the easiest to get

started you’re gonna see really great

deals for shared hosting packages and

this is really dominated by the big

companies I mean that’s really how all

markets are anything cheap is gonna be

dominated by big companies and anything

that’s really expensive is by small

companies that offer a high end customer

service experience with that said the

main Conda shared hosting is that as the

name suggests you’re gonna be sharing

your hosting package with a lot of other

websites depending on you know who your

neighbors are that might mean that your

website is gonna load slower now what

that said I think it’s the option that

you should start with if you’re a

beginner for the reason of it being

cheap and that you can always upgrade

the next one is reseller hosting and

this is what I started with

many years ago I had the vision that I

wanted to create websites for small

businesses and local businesses so from

the get-go I knew that I wanted a plan

where I can create multiple hosting

accounts and that’s really what it

resell roasting is it’s pretty much

shared hosting but where you can create

unlimited websites and as as this name

suggests you can actually sell hosting

plans you don’t need to create websites

specifically you could literally just

create hosting accounts and let the

people figure it out themselves a step

above that is VPS hosting and this is

virtual private server and with this

you’re getting resources that act like

your own so so it acts as though it’s

not being shared with other websites

even though from a physical perspective

it might literally be on the same server

but their software overtop of it they

give you dedicated resources to run your

website so you don’t have to worry about

other websites interfering with your

performance they also give you root

access so if you need to do any

technical stuff for IT level stuff

you’re gonna have

more options with a VPS server versus a

shared hosting server and the main

downside is that this is going to cost

more than shared hosting and it’s also

not as scalable as some of the other

options if you do start to get more

traffic one step above VPS is dedicated

hosting so this is where you actually

get physical resources you know you get

a physical web server that is all yours

and that’s where your website runs so

this is generally expensive I think I’ve

never looked into this for myself but

just having browsed around I’ve seen

prices anywhere from like seventy five

dollars to two hundred dollars per month

for dedicated hosting plans so this is

something that you’re really only gonna

need if you have a high traffic website

and you’re a technical kind of person

nowadays a popular option is cloud

hosting so instead of your hosts being

on a physical computer you know sitting

somewhere maybe in the United States or

internationally your website hosting is

on the cloud and the big advantage to

this is that you have redundancy so it’s

usually faster it’s more scalable

especially if the traffic surges start

to happen you know your site’s not gonna

crash as easily as it would if you were

on a shared server that only had a

specific amount of you know RAM or

memory so this is gonna cost you a

little bit more and the other downside

is that you might not get the same

access that you would if you had a

dedicated server and a similar version

of cloud hosting is managed WordPress

hosting so this is specifically

optimized for the WordPress content

management software and database

oriented websites they also do a lot of

updates for you so it’s gonna be more

secure you don’t have to worry about

doing that manually and similar to cloud

hosting the downsides to this or pricing

control so I had to do this from one of

my websites it started to get a lot of

traffic and the performance of all the

websites that were on that shared server

and that included both personal and

client websites the load speed of all of

them started to decline so I knew I had

to get my high traffic websites off of

that shared server and just keep the low

traffic websites on there and when I

switched over to managed

Press hosting and the company I chose

was Ken stay calm the performance of the

website just went through the roof the

page for the time before was something

between a second to two seconds when I

transferred over to Kinston it’s now

down to like 0.2 seconds so it improved

way more than what I could have done by

tweaking all the settings within

WordPress or anything like that if

you’re a beginner though don’t worry

about any of that stuff

start with the most basic shared hosting

package and get your website up and

running if you’re ready to do that right

now I highly recommend Hostgator I’ve

used them for almost a decade now so

they’ve been around a long time

they’re very reliable and I think

they’ve been one of the easiest to use

go to hostgator.com slash WPC — I’m

partnering with them to give you the

best offer for a one-year term you’ll

get 45% off and if you get to the

checkout page in another way you can

apply this discount using the coupon

code wpa2 and if you don’t have the time

right now to set up your website or

maybe you just want a little bit more

guidance go to website profit course

comm slash beginner I’m gonna put

together an email series where you’ll

get this video along with WordPress 101

tutorials so you can get accustomed to

how to edit and create a website with

WordPress and on top of that you’ll get

a full length tutorial step by step on

how to create a business website from

scratch that should be more than enough

to give you the confidence to create

your own website this year go ahead and

check out that beginner series and if

you found this video helpful make sure

you give it a thumbs up if you’re

interested at all in building websites

you’ll definitely want to subscribe to

my channel because I’m gonna be coming

out with a lot of videos a lot of short

tutorials along with other teaching

videos like this my goal this year is

really to help as many people create

their website I’ve learned so much

through all of my websites personal

websites client websites I like to say

that websites are the best vehicle to

learn about business because you could

touch every aspect of business with a

website so they’re the the perfect

launching pad that doesn’t take a

massive investment you know it doesn’t

cost that much you can get started for

a hundred dollars in almost every case

and if you have a little bit more to

work with then that’s where you want to

invest more in the strategy set of

things I don’t think you want to invest

right away and the best technology when

you have don’t have a web design you

don’t have any traffic all the links

that I mentioned here will be in the

description below that’s all that I got

for you today I want to really thank you

for taking the time to read this and I

hope to see you on the next article have a

great one everyone.

Chapter 11. Welcome to the World Cup

I do not own Harry Potter or any of the characters from it. If I did, Albus would not be named Albus.

Something may be going on with Anneliese, I actually haven’t figured any of that out yet. Fun fact! James is my LEAST favorite character. In like, every fic I’ve read, he’s a piece of shit and now I can only see him as one. I like him more than Rose and Lysander Scamander and I don’t like them that much. (I only like them because I have read ones where they are pretty nice/become nice. Specially Rose)

(Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, Chapter 5, Chapter 6, Chapter 7, Chapter 8, Chapter 9, Chapter 10, Chapter 12, Chapter 13, Chapter 14 )

Chapter 11. Welcome to the World Cup

Albus screamed as his covers were torn off of him and there was a yelling in his ear. “What the hell?” He grabbed his glasses from the nightstand and slipped them on. “Lily? L?” He saw the red hair of his sister and the short black hair of his best friend. “What’re you guys doing waking me up at,” He looked at the clock and groaned, “5 am? And what’re you guys doing dressed?”

“Today’s the quidditch world cup! Mum has to get there by 6 am so she can start to interview the two teams! Mum wants you up so we can eat. Now hurry up! We still need to get James up!”

“Lil, go wake up James yourself. I’ll make sure Albus gets up.”

“Fine.” Lily ran out of Albus’s room and to James’s.

Anneliese grabbed Albus’s ankle and pulled him off of the bed. “C’mon Albus. If you don’t then you won’t be able to eat.”

He slowly got up, “That hurt.”

“Well I’m sorry, but you need to get ready.”

“Alright. Alright. Lemme get my clothes.” Anneliese nodded and Albus went to his closet and grabbed his clothes. While in there, he stripped himself down and slipped his clothes on. When he came out he laughed as he saw L fixing his bed. “Who are you? My mum or something?”

She laughed too, “Sorry, it’s just an instinct. My mum makes me make my bed whenever I get up and if I wake up one of my younger siblings, if they’re younger than 10, while they get dressed, I make their bed.”

“That makes sense. Since I’m only 2 years older than Lil, I never really had to.” She nodded, “Well, I’m ready, let’s go eat.”

“Wait, your hair.”

He touched his hair and looked at it and then back to her, “What?”

She grabbed a hairbrush from her bag and pulled him over to his bed. Sitting behind him, she began to brush it. “Sorry if it hurts.” He mumbled something about it being okay as she ran the brush through his hair. Neither of them noticed his mum leaning against the door. When Anneliese was done she placed the brush back in her bag and smiled, “There, done.”

“Wow, that’s smoother than even I can get it.” The two kids jumped when they heard the voice of Ginny Weasley-Potter. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you. I assumed you saw me. Well, if you want breakfast then you better get downstairs. We have to leave in 10 minutes. Ron, Hermione, Rose, and Hugo just got here. So your father and Ron have left. Lily and James are currently eating. If you’re not down by the time they’re done, then you don’t get to eat til later.” Albus jumped off his bed and ran downstairs as Anneliese shook her head and walked down. “Wait,” She gave Ginny a confused look, “I’ve never been able to get Albus to stay that still, even when he was younger. How did you?”

She shrugged, “I don’t know, maybe because I pulled him to the ground to wake him up.”

Ginny smiled, “Perhaps. But, I’m happy Albus made friends with you.”

“Why?”

“Because, you’re a positive aspect in his life. I know he won’t say it, but he needs as much positivity due to how his cousins have been.”

“Oh, well, he doesn’t say much. I think he talks to Scorpius about those things more.”

“Still, he’s always happy whenever he’s talking about you or hanging out with you.”

“I guess. Also, I’m sorry about practically living here this summer. I kinda was annoyed at the wedding planning by the first day.”

“Oh that’s alright. You’re never a bother. Plus, Lily loves you too.”

Anneliese smiled, “Oh, I love Lily too. She’s so sweet.”

“Yes. Well, I better let you go eat.” She tapped the back of Anneliese’s back and she walked downstairs.

--------

The group walked down the hill to the tents. Albus and Anneliese held onto Lily’s hands tightly, just in case there were any other reporters that would take photos of them and the two could run off with her. They would run to the Malfoy’s tent and wait there, they came up with that plan a couple weeks ago when Scorpius came over and he asked his parents when he went home. Thankfully, there were none, at least none that spotted them and they all made it to the tent with ease.

“Alright, I should be back in an hour or two.” Ginny turned to her kids and Anneliese, “Behave.” They all nodded and she walked out.

Rose, James, and Hugo were making bets on who would win while Lily, Albus, and Anneliese were talking with Hermione. “Well, I agree with Anneliese, I don’t understand quidditch either. But I also hate flying.”

They laughed, “I just don’t understand the fun in quidditch. I mean, at least one person gets injured per team.”

“But that’s what makes it so much fun! You never know just what might happen! Besides, no one has died in ages, of course people do vanish occasionally, but they show up in a month or two!”

“That helps so much Albus, thanks.”

“I have to wait 2 more years till I can try out for my quidditch team. You’re lucky Albus, you get to do it in 2 months!”

“You’re trying out Al?”

Albus shrugged, “Yeah, I decided why not. I mean, there’s no guarantee I’ll make it.”

“You probably will Albus. I mean, your mum, dad, all of your uncles besides 2, your brother, Teddy, and Fred are all on the team.”

“I guess. Anyways, L, when’re you supposed to meet your family?”

“Whenever you guys head to your seat, I guess. I mean, I’ll check out the tent when we leave to see if they’re there, if they are, then I’ll stay with them.”

They nodded and then Hermione continued, “Didn’t you guys mention how you know someone’s niece who is in this?”

“Yeah, our friend, Lorene, her uncle is on the Welsh team.”

“That’s what I thought, but I was just checking.”

“Yeah, he’s one of their beaters.”

“I hope they beat the USA. They aren’t good at anything, but choking out at the end.”

“What’s ‘choking out’?”

“It’s when you expect them to do bad and they do because they always do or they onlyy do when they get this far.”

“That makes no sense Albie.”

“Basically it’s how everyone feels about the Slytherin Quidditch team. They’ve done bad for the past like, 5 years, so now everyone expects them to be bad.”

“That stupid.”

“But it’s sadly true, do they still expect ya’ll to play dirty?” Hermione asked softly.

Albus shrugged, “I have no clue.”

Anneliese nodded, “Yeah, they do. It’s stupid, they know we won’t and yet some teams try and privoke us.”

“That’s so stupid.”

“It really is Aunt Hermione.”

--------

The group walked into the arena after showing their tickets. Anneliese hugged Albus. “I’ll see you in a week at Aidan’s wedding, alright?”

“If we don’t see each other after the game, definitely. Mum told me she’d drop me off at 10 since it starts at 11.”

“Okay,” She tightened the hug before letting go, “I’ll see you in a week.”

Albus felt confused after she hugged him so tightly and how she spoke. But he shook that from his mind. “Yeah, see you in a week.” The two walked away from each other and went to where their families were.

--------

Albus was on the edge of his seat as he watched the two seekers dive down to catch the snitch. Wales was in the lead, but America had longer arms. He tuned out the commentator as he watched. He screamed a yes when the seeker for Wales caught the snitch. Giving Wales the win of the game and Cup. Of course it wasn’t just him. Everyone in his family, that was there, cheered from happiness.

--------

Albus, Teddy, Vic, Lily, Roxanne, and Hugo danced around in celebration. The adults watched in amusement as the other kids did other things. Like read, write letters, or other things besides celebrating with the 6. Their portkey wasn’t due to leave until midnight and it was only 10:30.

They stopped dancing at about 10:40. Now they were just sitting around too. Teddy, Victoire, Albus, and Lily were all sitting together in a corner playing the muggle game of Go Fish. “How was your first year Albus?”

He shrugged, “Alright. I mean, it was weird not being home everyday and all that. But it was fun for the most part. I made friends easily.”

“That’s good. I will say, I was shocked when Vic sent the letter informing that you had been. But once the shock settled, I questioned why I was surprised as you have so many of the good Slytherin traits.

“Like what?”

“Well, you’re very cunning and resourceful for starters. But, you also take on the leadership role when you have to, and once you make a goal, you won’t stop until you achieve it. Plus, you tend to weigh the pros and cons before you do something. However, that one is rarer.”

“Huh, I never realized I did that.”

Vic and Teddy laughed, “You don’t realize how much you are like your house until someone points it out. I didn’t realize how many Hufflepuff traits, besides the stereotypical nice, I had.” She drew a card since Lily didn’t have the card she wanted. “But, I’m extremely patient with everyone and everything. I, like Slytherins and other Hufflpuffs, am very dedicated to things. For example, I am bloody dedicated to our family and my schooling. I’m also dedicated to becoming a Healer.”

“Oh Vic! Did you get in?”

“Yeah, I did Lils, training starts in 2 weeks.”

“Yay! Also, Go Fish Teddy.”

“Damn.”

“Language!”

-------

As Albus laid in his bed, he stared up at the ceiling. Was Teddy right? Did he really have a bunch of Slytherin traits? Were they more obvious now that he was a Slytherin? Was he really cunning and resourceful? He didn’t feel resourceful. Always having to ask L for help on work. Would, or more of does, he really try to make his goal, even through deception and lies? Did he really become the leader whenever he had to? He tried to think back on a time that he did, but he couldn’t remember a single time. The only thing that he knew Teddy was right on was the weighing of pros and cons. He did it before getting into fights, most of the time.

He groaned as the seven words echoed in his head.

Cunning. Resourceful. Leadership. Goal. Achieve. Pros. Cons.

However, something James had said to him the day before L came to stay were in his head.

“You’re a disgrace to the family! Mum and dad don’t care about you! You’re just harming Lily by being so close to her! She’s fighting with Hugo more because of you! You’re nothing. You’re a coward who hides behind older students! You’ll never get to achieve anything in your life! How about when you go over to that bitch Green’s house, you stay there!”

He held his pillow tightly and whispered to not cry. He didn’t want to cry over something so stupid. Over something that if James found out, he would make fun of him for. He didn’t want to cry. He didn’t want to be a coward.

Conventions Prep and Set Up

New Post has been published on http://sorcery101.net/news/conventions-prep-and-set-up/

Conventions Prep and Set Up

Like I said in January most of my money comes from conventions. It’s from 10-12 different conventions a year. Here’s a break down of all the prep which goes into those trips.

HOW I PICK SHOWS

First, I need to pick which shows I go to. Since, convention sales are a big part of my income is really comes down to profit margins. I go back to any show where I have made $500 profit. (Though I might change that rule to 175 profits per day because more and more shows are becoming longer than 3 days. ) So after everything is paid for I need to take home at least $500. Some times I can make a low sales show work because I live close by or can crash at a friends house. For example, Rose City Comic Con has my lowest sales of my regular shows but I live in Portland and on the same lightrail line as the convention center. So my costs are $5 a day in public transit tickets and the table cost which is $200. The other side of this is sometimes it means not returning to shows where I can have fun and see a lot of friends. I’m probably never going back to MoCCA because the tables are $450 (last I checked a few years ago) and a plane ticket cross country is $400-600. So it means even if I crash at a friends how I would need to sales twice as much as Rose City to just break even.

Now I am always looking for new shows, especially ones in February, June, August, and November. Those months usually don’t have shows. When I go to a new show I ask friends who have been and look at plane tickets. I try to figure out how sales will go. Right now, I’ve on the fence about trying Heroes Con, DINK, and Denver Comic Con. I have heard good things from several friends but in both cases but I need to cover a hotel, flight, and table. So I might give one a try in 2019, but this year is out. Also keep wanting to hit up Wondercon, which would be much easier, but it keeps conflicting with Anime Boston which is one of my best shows. This year was one of the few times that conflict didn’t haven’t but I got waitlisted.

When I go to a new show I bring my 2 test boxes. My 2 test boxes includes:

10 of each Cautionary Fables and Fairy Tales

10 of Can I Pet Your Werewolf

15 Misfits of Avalon vol 1

5 Misfits of Avalon vol 2

5 Misfits of Avalon vol 3

15 Fame and Misfortune

15 Better to Find You With

20 From Scratch

5 Sorcery 101 vol 1

2 Sorcery 101 vol 2

If I sell all of this that will make me 1500 gross. In most cases that will get me over my $500 profit goal. Part of why I’m hesitant about Heroes Con and the others is I would have to sell all of it to make goal. Even then I might not.

PREP

Now that the shows are picked for the year, I try to make sure I got everything organized. Every December I go through all my past convention notes. I box up or order anything I’ll need for that con every. In my closet right now are several boxes that have written on their side:

AB (short for Anime Boston)

1 of 5

Holds BTFYW/BUFFY/MOA1 (short for The Better to Find You With, Buffy, and Misfits of Avalon vol 1 respectively)

On the inside flap of the box it will say

Buffy – 10

BTFYW – 40

MOA1 – 40

So as soon as I open the box I know exactly what is inside.

I always take as many books as I sold the year before rounded up to the nearest interval of 5. If I sold out I’ll add 5-10 to that number. So in this case Misfits sold 39 copies at Anime Boston last year, which is why I’m bringing 40.

Doing this lets me know if I need to order or reprint books before the season starts. Like I bought 200 copies of Misfits of Avalon and 50 copies of Buffy from Darkhorse to have them at shows through the whole year. It’s not that I don’t expect Buffy to sell, but more I want my con sales to focus on my creator owned things rather than work for hire so I limited Buffy sales to 10 – 5 per show.

I also have a con kit box that goes to every show. In that is:

Promo Flyers

Sharpies

Cough drops

Aleve (my preferred headache medicine)

Tums

Ear plugs

Square Reader

Sold out form

This will get update before every show. Promo flyers are obviously so people can find me website later. Sharpies are for signing and sketching in books. Square reader is how I take credit card sales at shows. Paypal also makes one but I like Square better. Cough drops, Aleve, and Tums are for if I start to feel sick during the show. Usually I use Fisherman’s Friend cause they are stronger than other cough drops. Since I mostly sell books and books are heavy I do my best not to over bring those. That makes the sold out form important.

If has a blue border to match the price tags and table cloth on my con display which is the same blue on my website. I circle the book or write what they want in the blank space. I usually write the persons name and address cause I have an easier time writing my own hardwriting. Basically, someone can pay for a book or original page at the con and I will ship it to them for free.

GETTING TO THE SHOW

Books are heavy and that is mostly what I sell. This isn’t much of a problem if I’m car pooling with a friend. Load the car up and go. If I need to fly to a convention, I used to try to fly Virgin America cause they let you check up to 10 bags. But they got bought by Alaska Airlines. I can still check up to like 10 bags but it’s way more expensive. So this year I will mail them ahead. I try to send them a month ahead of me. If the books get lost, then I’ll check them.

Mailing them ahead of time is also why that “AB box 1 of 5” label is important. Because then I know which box got lost and what was in it.

If I’m not staying with a friend and I’m mailing stuff ahead of me, I need to call the hotel or convention to find out how long the hotel/con will hold my books and if there is a fee.

All of my display stuff that I’ll explain in the next part, fits into a large suitcase that I always check.

DISPLAY AT THE SHOW

The last step before the show begins is my display. I tried to brand my display with the same color scheme as my website. I linked you to my Sold Out Form and that blue is color of my table cloth and the color of my price tags.

Books are where I make most of my money and what I want people to focus on. They are front and center. My books get displayed on a colaspable shelf like this one . It is 18 inches wide which works for me because all my books are 6 inches by 9 inches or 9 inches by 6 inches. I keep meaning to paint it black or blue so it will also match my website. This keeps all my books upright and facing people who are browsing. It also keeps them close to eye level. All the covers are clearing visible. Some of the books in the back get hidden, and because of that I try to group books vertically. So Misfits of Avalon vol 3 is in front of the Misfits of Avalon vol 2 which is in front of Misfits of Avalon vol 1. Someone who is familiar with the book will still see the series clearly, but volume 3 in front will let people who have other volumes there is a new book. But the title is still clear so that new people can flip through the series. Cautionary Fables and Fairy Tales also gets stacked vertically.

For each book I have made a price tag. They are 10 inches tall and 6 inches wide. They fit nicely behind each book and poke out. Sorcery 101’s price tag is 7 inches tall and 9 inches wide for the same reason. I do individual price tags because of something I learned from reading “Why We By: The Science of Shopping.” People only spend like 30 seconds reading signs. So a giant price list is less likely to me read than an individual price tag.

I have tote bags and still haven’t quite figured out how to display them. I try to find a place to lay them flat so the design is clear.

Also laying flat is my portfolio. I don’t usually sell prints because I’ve had better luck selling books. Prints of my character did okayish. But most people I sell to at shows have never heard of me and it’s easier to tell someone to try a book than to grab a print of a character they don’t know (And I don’t think people should sell fanart.) Also, laying flat is my price list for commissions. Commissions I could make more money off of if I put more focus on them. However, I don’t really like to do commissions at shows. I’d rather stay in selling/pitching mode rather than switch back and forth between that and drawing mode. Also, I ink traditionally so it’s hard to make my work portable. All in all, I’m okay with them being an after thought. If you want a commission, you are better off shooting me an email before the show and picking it up there. I did recently get an ipad pro to draw digitally. So I might try to do digital commissions at shows now that I can be less concerned with bring all my inking stuff.

I also have two banners behind me. They are both the tallest version of this banner. I picked that one because while most people have 3 foot wide banners, the 2 foot wide one will fit in my large suitcase. But the 3 foot one doesn’t. One design is the blue black and white color scheme of my website. That one has my name on it and characters from different comics. I might redesign it in a year or so. The other design has Danny lighting his cigarette and has Sorcery 101’s logo on it. The Kel McDonald banner is more helpful for people who already know me. The Sorcery 101 banner brings over more people who don’t know me. They ask about the title which leads to my sales pitch. The Sorcery 101 banner is also easier to spot cause it is bring orange. So if you need to design a banner and are still unknown, maybe make a banner for your comic rather than you. Both of these banners are VERY TALL. They are hard to miss.

Giving someone a clear way to find you is important. I think that makes one of the most popular ways to display prints at shows a bad idea. I see it most at anime cons, but it happens are every show. I think it’s just more prevalent at animecons because the artists lean younger and therefore are less likely to have the funds for a big banner. There is a thin wall of prints taped together and only a small space for the artist to poke their head out. If you google anime con display you get 9 million examples of this. I don’t want to pick on anyone by grabbing a picture so I drew what I’m talking about.

First off, that display is flimsy and I’ve seen more then one fall over. Second, they are hard to put. My display can be put up by just me and takes ten minutes or so. Also, the sign being in front of the table means when the con floor is crowded someone can’t see it and therefore find you. Then the mass of images will blur together with nothing standing out from far away. If you and several other people in a row have a display like this is will be hard for someone to see you. And finally, this wall puts a wall between you and the person who wants to buy stuff. It’s hard to see if someone is browsing through that tiny window and hard to engage with a customer. If you want to do a print wall, try to put it behind you rather than in front of you. You should be visible. Part of why folks are coming to cons is to talk to/see you.

And the final part of my display is me. I’m not a very fashionable person. But I try to dress nicer than I usually do with a button up shirt. I pick button up shirts with a collar and a front pocket that has a button flap. The front pocket is where I put my large bills so the flap is to make it so they aren’t visible. Obviously most people have a cash box or bag, but I worry about losing it/forgetting it. I also wear a tie that matches Danny’s piano key tie. So I match my books and merch a little too. Now that Sorcery 101 is done I might switch to something kinda werewolfy if I can find it.

And all that is before the show even starts. Next month I’ll post about at the show stuff.

Agilenano - News: The 12 best outdoor flooring options to keep your home looking stylish from the outside in

Learn the pros and cons of each option and make the choice that’s best for you. Because you don’t want to spend your summer hanging out in the dirt. But really…choosing the right flooring for your backyard, front yard, poolside and patio decking is important and, often, overlooked. People be like “GIVE ME THAT HARDWOOD” and then forget about that little thing called curb appeal. In fact, most people don’t know what their options are, which makes it hard to make an informed decision on the best outdoor flooring for you. There’s plenty of options out there, but we’re just going to share our very favorites. This post is a long one, so if you’re interested in a specific type of flooring feel free to skip ahead by clicking on any of the following links: 1. Composite Wood-Look Decking Probably the most versatile in terms of appearance, composite wood-look decking can give your outdoor patio flooring a rustic, homey feel or a chic, polished, modern look. As we know, wood never goes out of style, making composite wood-look decking a choice that won’t go out of style. Think of these tiles as a trendier and inexpensive version of the traditional wood deck boards. These tiles give you the most sought after “wood-look”, minus the weight and pain of installation. And, they’re gorgeous! Composite wood decking gives you the best of both worlds. With modern technology, you can achieve a gorgeous, realistic wood look without the challenges of traditional wood. Composite deck flooring is like the luxury vinyl of the porch flooring market. Maybe some out-of-date folks are still turning their nose up at it, but others are embracing composite decking as the outdoor flooring of the future. Composite decks, like vinyl floors, bring you realistic wood looks without any of the hassle. Pros of Composite Wood Decking Maintenance: Listen, we all know wood is notorious for being high-maintenance. Expansion, contraction, termites, wood rot, resanding, refinishing, the list goes on! With composite decking, simply clean off your deck with soap and water when it gets dirty. The end. Fire resistance: We all know wood burns, but composite floors are made to be fire resistant to keep your floor and, more importantly, your family safe. Accessibility: When you’re purchasing solid wood, you have to make sure you get it from a reputable source and that it was legally harvested. With composite decking, you just click, purchase, finito. Perfect for sitting with your morning coffee or evening wine: For me, a wood (or wood-look) deck just screams cozy, relaxing sitting area. If I had one, I would be sitting out there every single morning. Great for balcony flooring: Not every outdoor flooring option works or looks good on a smaller upstairs balcony. Composite deck tiles do Installation: Do you want to work outside in the hot sun for hours, trying to build a deck with a hammer and nails? Yeah, I didn’t think so. Composite deck tiles connect together in a snap, and you can cut them to size with a tile cutter or utility knife. What could take days is now a project you can complete in a few dedicated hours. Eco-Friendly: Newer composite decking is 100% recyclable, made from bamboo, wood fibers, and recyclable resins. Now, you can enjoy the greenery of your yard with a deck made of “green” materials. Cost: Wait, what?! No, I ain’t lyin’ (well at least when you compare it to wood – not necessarily compared to other options)! Everything you read will tell you that composite decking is more expensive, but that just is not the case. Pressure treated wood will run you $15-25 per square foot, while higher end woods will run $25+ (source). Our high-end composite decking runs $9-17 per square foot. So let’s compare the top end composite to the bottom end wood: Wood $15/sqft + installation at $9/sqft + yearly sealing at $3/sq ft. (average cost of sealing in 2016 via Home Advisor) on a 200 sq ft deck = $4,800 initial cost, but just look at how that $3/sqft sealing adds up over time. At $600/year, that adds to a total (including purchase and installation) of $28,800 over 40 years. Umm, that is CRAZY! Composite $17/sqft + installation at $9/sqft on a 200 sqft deck = $5,200 with no treatments needed. Then you save $600 on sealing each year, which adds up to a savings of $23,600 savings over 40 years. I’m not kidding. Composite decking will literally save you thousands of dollars in the long run. Cons of Composite Wood Decking So, composite decking is kinda the bomb if you haven’t noticed. But it does have two noticeable drawbacks. Heat: Plastics retain heat more than traditional wood, and therefore they will get warmer if they are in a sunny area. They will still remain cooler than concrete, and you can combat the heat by choosing a lighter color. Bragging rights: Yeah, yeah…it’s not real wood. If you’re someone who really cares about using real wood, then composite might not be for you. It doesn’t feel exactly like real wood, so you may not be able to pull one over on your stuffiest dinner guests, but you could definitely fool someone like me! Cost: Wait, but you just said…! I know, I know. Cost is a benefit when compared to wood decking, but compared to the options below, composite deck tiles will still run you a pretty penny. SHOP COMPOSITE DECKING Related content >> 10 Outdoor Inspirations 2. Porcelain and Ceramic Tile Is there anything more gorgeous than classic stone patio tiles or a wood patio? I have a secret. Most of those “stone” or “wood” patios you see aren’t really stone or wood at all, but tile. Patio floor tiles, and specifically, porcelain exterior tiles, are often even more durable than natural materials like stone and wood, depending on the PEI rating, so you can really get the best of both worlds. Pros of Using Outdoor Tile Flooring Cost: You can get gorgeous stone-look or wood-look tile for, like, $2/sq ft. Just to remind you, above we were discussing options at $15/sq ft for wood, so outdoor tiles are a major bargain! Upscale look: Tile can give you not just a natural stone look, but a gorgeous, realistic wood look as well. Maintenance: Tile is famous for being super easy to clean and maintain. Just sweep and mop occasionally, and you’re good to go. Great for entertaining: A tile patio or fire pit area is the perfect place to entertain guests outdoors. Cons of Using Outdoor Tile Flooring Elements: While tile makes a great outdoor flooring option, it’s not necessarily the burliest when it comes to standing up to the elements, especially cold. After a lot of exposure to harsh environments, tile can become damaged, especially if it’s a basic ceramic and not porcelain. Slipping hazard: Some tiles can be extremely slippery, making them a less-than-ideal choice for near pools and other areas with a lot of water.

I promise I’m not about to try to convince you that ugly 1980s astroturf is the next big thing and you should get on it right away. It isn’t. The truth is, turf these days (20-teens turf? does anyone say 20-teens?) is, like composite decking, an incredible lookalike to the real deal! In fact, I bet you pass turf yards on the daily and have no idea. Now with a realistic look and feel, turf has become a sought-after alternative to real grass. I live in Phoenix. Do you know how much it costs to try to maintain a lawn when it’s 115 out and hasn’t rained in 11 years? Okay, that last part might be a bit dramatic, but that doesn’t change the fact that turf is, like, my dream come true! Pros of Artificial Grass Maintenance: No more time spent mowing the lawn, setting up sprinklers or staying home for your irrigation; turf requires practically nothing of you as the owner other than the occasional hose down. Seriously, so easy. Looks: Like I said, if you purchase a high-quality turf, no one will know it’s not grass unless you tell them. Allergies: Grass make you itchy? Turf won’t bother you a bit! Great for kids and pets: Kids and dogs love running around in the grass. They’re not going to have the same fun running around a cement patio. You can also get playground turf or pet turf and create a special place for the kiddos (both 2 and 4 legged). It’s soft! Most outdoor flooring options are hard. You have to sit in a chair in order to be comfortable. With turf, you can have a picnic, or just lay down right in the turf, especially since it doesn’t attract bugs the same way traditional grass does. You can keep it cool: One of the cons of turf has always been the heat – under heat, it does get warm and stops feeling soft and, well, grassy. Now, you can easily add some snazzy Hydrochill to keep it cool and natural-feeling all summer long. Cost: While it’s true that it is initially more expensive to purchase turf than grass, just take a look at the cost over the long run! **Notes about cost: Information is courtesy of Synthetic Grass Warehouse. Yearly estimations for grass maintenance come in at $2,268, which includes fertilizers, chemicals, irrigation and trimming. Turf installation price estimates all labor, gravel removal, possible irrigation movement, etc. Cons of Artificial Grass Upfront cost: Although it is less expensive over time, you do need to be able to spring for the initial cost of material and installation. It’s not grass: Hi, my name is Captain Obvious. But if you’re concerned with having grass that is ONLY GRASS, obviously turf won’t cut it. SHOP ARTIFICIAL GRASS Related content >> Pet-Friendly Flooring Buying Guide 4. Artificial Grass Deck Tiles You know about artificial grass rolls, but have you heard of these great new grass deck tiles? With grass tiles, you get the best of both worlds – the comfort and convenience of a deck, with the lush greenery of a lawn. This is the perfect solution for folks who might not have any yard space, but you still crave that yard-like experience. The best part is, there’s basically nothing to it when it comes to maintenance. They interlock together with ease, and they’re self-draining, which is a big plus for those rainy days. There’s also your pet to think about. Fido and fluffy will want to explore the outdoors too, and these grass tiles are completely pet-friendly. They’re something that the whole family can enjoy. Pros of Artificial Grass Deck Tiles Virtually no maintenance: No mowing, no trimming, and no watering. Just think of all the time and effort you can save with artificial grass instead of the real thing! Green all year: Tired of looking outside and seeing dead, brown grass in the winter and during droughts? Those drab days are over once you purchase these tiles. You’ll have a lush, green paradise all year round. Self-draining: A self-draining system means no standing water after a big rainstorm. This also keeps the surface from getting too slippery. DIY Installation: There’s no need to hire a pro for installation. You won’t need any adhesives or tools, either. Simply interlock the tiles together, like their pieces of a big puzzle. That’s about as easy as it gets! Long-term cost: As you save on watering and maintenance, these tiles are going to pay for themselves. That’s not the case with real grass. Pest-free: Bugs and other creepy crawlies aren’t going to set up camp in artificial grass. Plus, all the allergens in real grass are eliminated. Cons of Artificial Grass Deck Tiles Not the real thing: Having natural grass is important to some people, so they’ll prefer the real thing over grass tiles no matter what other great benefits come with the synthetic version. Upfront cost: Over time, artificial grass will pay for itself, but that initial cost is going to be more than natural grass. Consider these tiles an investment for a brighter, more easily maintained deck in the future. SHOP ARTIFICIAL GRASS DECK TILES 5. Outdoor Carpet Yes, it is a thing! Now, we’re not talking ultra-thick, plush bedroom carpet. If you’re going to use carpet outdoors, you need to make sure it’s manufacturer approved for outdoor use. Outdoor carpet is the very short, low pile carpet similar to what you see in offices. Our ribbed outdoor carpet tiles are often used under covered patios and areas not super susceptible to lots of water. The self-adhering backing makes for a simple but secure installation. Plus, these carpet squares are mold- and mildew-resistant, which perfect for patios, basements, and other areas with the potential for moisture. If eco-friendliness is important to you, you’ll love the fact that many carpet tiles are made from recycled materials. Pros of Outdoor Carpet Comfort: Carpet, even low pile carpet, is naturally soft and comforting. It gives you a much homier place to hang out outside, especially compared to brick and concrete. Style: You have a lot more options than you would think. Not to mention, many outdoor carpet options are carpet tiles, which means you can mix and match colors and create fun, unique designs. Price: You can get outdoor carpet tiles for under $1/sqft – it’s like they’re giving it away! Cons of Outdoor Carpet Longevity: Outdoor carpet is very durable, but it requires a decent amount of maintenance to keep it in good shape. Also, it just won’t last as long as many of the other outdoor options. Upkeep: Like I said, it requires a lot more maintenance to keep your carpet in good shape. They are built to hold up to commercial traffic and the elements, but it’s still carpet and that means you’ll have to vacuum and occasionally give it a legit carpet cleaning. SHOP OUTDOOR CARPET 6. Plastic Deck and Patio Tiles Plastic drainage tiles are like the ultimate outdoor flooring. They’re mold- and mildew-resistant and designed specifically to prevent slipping when they get wet. The vented surface allows water to drain under the tile, so there aren’t any standing puddles after a rain. The hard plastic of the tiles is UV stable, which means the color won’t fade even after extended exposure to sunlight. Drainage tiles work great for decks and patios, as well as around pools, outdoor showers, and anywhere that moisture might cause some challenges. Installing them is a easy as connecting them with the hook and loop system and laying them out. Pros of Plastic Deck and Patio Tiles Slip-resistant: Around pools and other high-moisture areas, a safe surface is important. These vented tiles offer plenty of traction, even when wet. Mold- and mildew-resistant: Outdoor flooring faces more exposure to moisture and warmth, which increases the chance for mold and mildew. Drainage tiles are made to resist mildewing, so they stay hygienic. Drains water: Water can come from anywhere: rain, sprinklers, splashes from the pool, you name it. Prevent puddles with drainage tiles in water-prone spaces. UV stable: No need to worry about your flooring fading in the sun. Hard plastic tiles will stay vibrant and look new even after extended exposure to sunlight and UV radiation. Cons of Plastic Deck and Patio Tiles Comfort: Hard plastic tiles aren’t the most comfortable option for outdoor flooring. You probably won’t be doing a lot of lounging on them, but they provide a solid, stable, slip-free surface. SHOP PLASTIC DECK TILES 7. Rubber Flooring And now for a round of “Floors You Never Thought to Put Outside”. I’ll take rubber flooring for 600, Alex! Seriously though, rubber is one of the most versatile flooring options there is. Although it is primarily used as gym flooring, rubber flooring is durable, slip resistant and shock absorbent. That means you can run, play and fall on it all you like, and both you and your floor will come out a-okay. So where do you start with rubber flooring? There’s a lot of options which can make it a little overwhelming. That’s why we’re breaking it down into the primary outdoor rubber flooring categories: rubber pavers, rubber tiles/rolls and rubber playground flooring. SHOP ALL OUTDOOR RUBBER Rubber Pavers Rubber pavers mimic the look of stone, brick and concrete, but give you the resiliency, comfort and ease of rubber. More economical than brick and in lots of cool colors and looks, rubber pavers are versatile and safe, easing your mind if you have kiddos playing outdoors, or just giving you and your guests comfort in your outdoor get-togethers. Pros of Rubber Pavers Price: Unlike many other outdoor flooring options, you can get rubber pavers for under $2/sqft! Of course, there are pricier options, but they are still usually pretty affordable. Comfort: Rubber is resilient and shock absorbent, making it super comfortable for walking, standing, jumping and back flips.* Slip resistance: Rubber is rare in that it gets more slip-resistant when it gets wet. It’s great for rainy climates, near a pool or anywhere with lots of water. Maintenance: A quick sweep or occasional mop. That’s all. *Note: You should probably not use rubber pavers to practice backflips… Cons of Rubber Pavers Longevity: While rubber pavers will last you quite some time, they won’t last as long as something like brick or concrete. Look: You can get brick and cobblestone looks, but they are not the same as the real deal. SHOP RUBBER PAVERS Related content >> Rubber Flooring: 5 Myths Busted Rubber Floor Tiles and Rolls These are the guys that most people only think of for gyms and fitness studios, but the truth is, they are super versatile, and they make a great outdoor flooring option! Pros of Rubber Tiles & Rolls Outside Flooring Price: Like rubber pavers, you can get rubber interlocking deck tiles and rolls for practically a steal! In fact, rubber rolls often start as low as $1/sqft. Comfort: Rubber is resilient and shock absorbent, making it super comfortable for walking, standing, jumping and back flips.* Slip resistance: Rubber is rare in that it gets more slip-resistant when it gets wet. It’s great for rainy climates, near a pool or anywhere with lots of water. Maintenance: A quick sweep or occasional mop. That’s all. Cons of Rubber Tiles & Rolls Outside Longevity: While rubber flooring will last you quite some time, they won’t last as long as something like brick or concrete. Ability to stand up to the elements: Rubber can wear in the sun. It is not as tough as something like concrete that can pretty much handle the harshest environments. SHOP RUBBER TILES SHOP RUBBER ROLLS Related content >> Rubber Flooring: Tiles vs. Rolls Rubber Playground Flooring Okay, so this is kind of a niche thing, but it’s still an excellent outdoor flooring option. In fact, if you have playground equipment, I’d be bold enough to say it is the best outdoor flooring option. No, this may not be your number one choice for a deck or patio, but if you have kids playing and jumping, regardless of equipment, rubber playground flooring is a safe option with lots of colors to choose from. Pros of Rubber Playground Flooring Safety: Rubber playground flooring is the safest option out there to protect you from falls and even general outdoor roughhousing options are rated to protect people falling from as high as 8′! Durability: This rubber is tough as nails. It will stand up to just about anything. Maintenance: While rubber mulch requires a bit more maintenance, it is still relatively easy. And playground tiles are a piece of cake – a quick sweep and the occasional damp mop and they are good to go. Cons of Rubber Playground Flooring Niche market: Rubber playground flooring is designed mostly for….playgrounds. You can use it in any outdoor area, but it’s typically a pretty niche market. Price: Kind of. Rubber playground flooring is (often) the most expensive outdoor flooring option, but it still comes in well below many of the other choices. SHOP RUBBER PLAYGROUND TILES SHOP RUBBER PLAYGROUND MULCH Related content >> Playground Flooring 8. Court Flooring When the weather is nice, it’s only natural that you’ll want to bring your games outside. Whether you’re looking for an outdoor basketball court, pickleball court, shuffleboard court, or something else entirely, there’s court flooring to meet your needs. Outdoor sports tiles can withstand the challenges that come with weather and temperature changes. These court tiles for sports are slip-resistant when wet. The perforated surface allows water and dirt to drain, reducing the need for upkeep. They’re also UV stable, so the vibrant colors won’t fade over time. Speaking of color, you can choose from a wide selection of bold colors to customize your court with team colors or any combination you like. Pros of Outdoor Court Flooring Slip-resistant: Even when wet, our court tiles provide a stable, slip-free surface to players. UV stable: Since these plastic tiles are colorfast, they won’t fade in the sunshine. That means your basketball or shuffleboard court will look great for years to come. Color options: Display your team spirit with themed colors, or just created the coolest court you can with a wide selection of tile colors. Easy installation: The hook and loop system makes installation a breeze. You can easily install these tiles on your own. When you need to cut, just use a utility knife or fine-tooth tile saw. Cons of Outdoor Court Flooring Not fall height rated: Our court tiles are great for playing sports on the playground, but they don’t absorb impact from fall. If you need flooring to install under playground equipment, consider rubber mulch or playground tiles. SHOP OUTDOOR COURT FLOORING 9. Rooftop Flooring To create a relaxing rooftop paradise, you need the right kind of flooring. Rooftop flooring, to be exact. Roof tiles are designed to protect rooftops from loud walking, punctures, temperature transfer, which is perfect if you have a lot of people walking around. That means there’s no need to worry when you’re hosting an outdoor event with tons of guests. These durable tiles have got you – and your roof – covered! The thing about rooftop flooring is that it’s going to be constantly exposed to the elements. There’s nothing up there to provide shade or protection from the rain. For those reasons, it’s really important you get something that holds up well to challenges. Rooftop flooring is built to withstand moisture, UV radiation, high traffic, and just about anything else you can throw at it. Pros of Rooftop Flooring Designed for drainage: All the water from rain can’t just sit there on your roof! Rooftop deck tiles are developed to optimize water drainage and prevent pesky puddles. No fading: Even after extended time under the unforgiving sun, it won’t fade or discolor, so you don’t need to worry about replacing washed out flooring. Durable: Rooftop tiles are made to add another layer of protection to your floor. They’re great for holding up in high traffic spaces. Cons of Rooftop Flooring Price: Specialized rooftop tiles aren’t the cheapest outdoor flooring option out there, but that’s because they come with so many benefits. Something, it’s worth it to invest a bit more on something you really want to last. SHOP ROOFTOP DECK FLOORING 10. Foam Tiles Really? Foam? Well…yes and no. Not all foam tiles are created equal, and most of the low-cost options won’t stand up to outdoor use. However, there are foam tiles specifically designed for outdoor use, particularly near pools and water play areas.* Soft, durable, slip-resistant and waterproof, these non-porous tiles will make your pool deck safe, fun and stylish. Pros of Foam Tiles Outdoors Safety: Outdoor foam tiles are soft, cushiony and slip-resistant. They’re great next to the pool to keep kiddos from slipping and falling on the harder surface. Anti- all of the bad things: Anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, nontoxic and mold/mildew resistant. Maintenance: To clean these babies, just wipe off the dirty area with a damp cloth. Really. It’s that simple. Cons of Foam Tiles Outdoors Longevity: The truth is, foam is soft and, probably, the least durable of all the outdoor flooring options. It will likely last you a decade, but not necessarily a lifetime. Price: Foam is usually a super cheap material. However, the foam tiles created specifically for outdoor use are built to stand up to the elements, especially water. This means they come at a higher price point. *For outdoor foam, we only recommend our Life Floor brand. SHOP OUTDOOR FOAM TILES 11. Brick Let’s go back in time to 1960s New England. The classic, elegant look of brick architecture. That’s what I imagine anytime I see brick, whether it’s walls or floor. I love it. It makes me feel almost like I’m in a different country traveling the world. Brick can give you a lot of different options for colors and patterns for your porch flooring and it definitely creates a unique look that sets you apart from the rest. Perfect for by an outdoor fireplace, or a cozy patio, brick is an often forgotten, but gorgeous outdoor flooring option. Pros of Brick Flooring Durability: This will come as no surprise. Bricks are one of the most durable materials out there, and they hold up well to outdoor foot traffic over the long haul. Cost: This one is tricky. Technically, over the short term, brick is one of the more expensive options. However, if you install brick correctly, it will literally last you until you destroy it yourself. Additionally, brick flooring is different than solid bricks – it usually comes in pavers, which are thinner and significantly less expensive. Look: There is just nothing out there that can compare with the look of natural brick. It adds a very unique feel to your space. Also, as your brick gets slightly worn with age, it just adds even more character and personality. Maintenance: Or…lack thereof. Slip resistance: Brick is naturally slip-resistant. Environmentally conscious: Brick is made from (almost) all natural materials and is often recycled during building demolition to make reclaimed/recycled brick. Warmth: Unlike stone, brick naturally stays pretty warm, but that can also be a negative in hot environments. Cons of Brick Flooring Water retention: Brick is naturally porous. Although it boasts a hard, solid exterior, if you don’t keep it sealed properly, it can retain water. That means you could have problems with mold and mildew down the line. Hardness: I mean….I think we can all agree that brick isn’t exactly soft. Uneven: Brick is already uneven and through natural wear, it will only get more so. Difficult to take up and replace: Removing brick flooring is, well, a process. It’s best to only commit if you can commit for the long haul. Related content >> 2019 Flooring Trends 12. Concrete Does concrete really count as a floor? I guess you could say concrete is the anti-flooring outdoor option. Many homeowners are drawn to using concrete outdoors because, well, have you ever heard the expression ‘hard as concrete’? You’d have to really put some effort into destroying concrete, which means it will probably last you forever. Also, you probably don’t even need to do anything. Chances are your house came with a concrete patio and, if you want, you can stain it. Or you can just leave it be and go au naturale. Pros of Concrete Flooring Durability: Like I mentioned, concrete is one tough cookie. If you go the concrete route, you will probably be able to keep your concrete porch flooring for the entire time you live in the home. Maintenance: I mean, sweeping and hosing when it gets dirty – it doesn’t get much simpler than that. Versatility: With staining and stamping, you can really create a unique, stylish design on your existing patio. These techniques, however, will not last nearly as long as just plain ol‘ concrete. Price: If you just go with the concrete you already have, or even lay some new concrete down without any staining, this is a super cheap option. Environmentally conscious: Since the concrete is usually already present, you don’t have to use any new materials and, if you don’t stain it, you won’t be using any solvents or chemicals. Cons of Concrete Flooring You have to pay to play: Basically, if you want to jazz up your concrete and make it look trendy and stylish, you’ve gotta put some money into it. This changes the lifespan of your anti-floor and comes with the likelihood of chipping/peeling over time. Dirt: Have you ever walked barefoot over concrete and ended up with no dirt on your feet? Yeah, me either. Even freshly cleaned concrete, unless it’s stained, never really looks or feels clean. Hardness: If you’re going to be standing on your patio (for example: if you put a cooktop/grill out there), it is going to feel hard on your joints. Likewise, you won’t want to lay on it the way you would with artificial grass. Conclusion As you can see, there are lots of great outdoor flooring to choose from. Most of it comes down to location, personal preference and budget. If you’re ready to jump on board, check out a few of our most popular outdoor flooring options. Ready to get started?

Nobi Women’s Fat Burner Review

Dear friend, Nobi women’s fat burner is becoming popular in 2020 so lets discover if there is any truth behind the promises. If you are a busy bee and want a quick takeaway of information I have put the 3 most common questions at the top.

Is It True Nobi Is The Best Fat Burner For Women?

NO. I like to be succinct

Nobi contains common ingredients found in other fat burners. Infact Nobi is basically a keto fat burner which contains BHB. Most keto lovers are now flocking to another keto supplement which contains the more potent variation of goBHB. For the latest top 10 rankings go to the health-info.org top 10 supplements.

How Quickly Can I Lose Weight Using Nobi Fat Burner?

Reported weight loss is 0 pounds to 3 pounds per month with Nobi women’s fat burner . Customers report losing 10 to 14 lbs per month with the no 1 fat burner in our top 10 list. Weight loss for the most popular keto supplement in the top 10 was 5 to 9 lbs per month but bear in mind keto is often used for energy and going to the gym as well. Find out about the latest rankings now.

Do Diet Pills Guarantee Weight Loss

It’s not legal to make a guarantee that you will lose weight. That said 2 premium diet pills in the top 10 list do offer a 60 day money back guarantee if you are not totally satisfied. It is a way of giving you total peace of mind so you have nothing to lose. We think it is a good step forward and look forward to all weight loss supplements being brave enough to follow this example.

What Is This Supplement

Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women is a fat burner made by Nobi Nutrition, marketed specifically towards women.

If you look more closely at the supplement you will realise that this gender-specific marketing is just to make a little extra money. There is nothing in its formula specifically for women, both sexes would experience similar effects when using this supplement.

Find the exact diet pills best suited for your lifestyle and body shape.

How Does It Work?

Hand with marker writing: How Does It Work?

It is believed that this fat burner will offer similar benefits to those experienced when undergoing the keto diet.

When you undergo the keto diet you will be eating a diet low in carbs, but is high in fat. This leaves your body in a state of ketosis, where your liver will start to manufacture ketone from stored fat. These ketones are then used for energy instead of the glucose you would usually get when eating carbohydrates.

What Are The Benefits?

25755376 – benefits

According to the Amazon listing, using the Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women will provide you with the following benefits:

An increase in metabolism

Energy boost

Weight loss support

Increased fat loss

What Diet Pills Do Celebrities Use?

Ingredients

Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women contains a proprietary blend of Calcium Beta Hydroxybutyrate, Sodium Beta Hydroxybutyrate and Magnesium Beta Hydroxybutyrate.

This is more commonly known as goBHB, which is a patented ketone body manufactured by Compound Solutions.

It is claimed that consuming this formula can help give you an energy boost, and is an alternative energy source to calorie-rich carbs.

Can It Help You Lose Weight?

I have my doubts that Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women offers any real weight loss benefit.

While the claims sound impressive, when you look at the ingredients used in more detail there is very little proof to back these claims up.

The keto diet itself has been shown to promote fat loss along with various other health benefits including an increase in HDL (good) cholesterol and decrease in LDL (bad) cholesterol, but research into BHB supplements is in its infancy. Not even the Compound Solutions (the manufacturer of goBHB) website have stated fat burning as one of its benefits.

Fat burning as a benefit is something that Nobi Nutrition has added to their Amazon listing without any proof. No doubt to entice people desperate to lose fat into purchasing it.

If you want to use this supplement then you should only use it as a way to boost your energy levels, perhaps while undergoing the keto diet. However, if you are following the diet correctly then this won’t really be of any benefit.

What Is The Science?

The only current scientific research available to prove any weight loss or fat loss claims was performed on rats.

In this study, it was shown that exogenous ketone supplementation could result in ketosis being experienced. Similar to the effects experienced while undergoing the keto diet.

Only time will tell if any human studies will be performed, and whether similar effects will be experienced.

Side Effects

Although the main ingredient (goBHB) is considered relatively safe. There are those who have encountered side effects from its use.

Potential side effects that you may encounter include stomach upset, diarrhoea, constipation and stomach pain. It should be noted that you are more likely to experience these side effects if a high dose has been used.

If you do encounter any ill effect then I would always recommend that you discontinue use of the supplement.

How Do You Take The Supplement

For best results, it is recommended that you take 2 capsules daily. These should be consumed 1-2 hours before a meal.

You should never take more than the recommended dosage.

Cost And Where To Buy?

Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women is available to buy online via Amazon. It is currently listed for $24.95 for a 30 serving bottle.

To save 10% on your order you could subscribe to get a bottle delivered to you every month. This will set you back $22.46.

Return, Refund And Guarantees

According to the listing on Amazon they state:

“If you are unhappy with your Womens Fat Burner, contact Nobi Nutrition directly. We will make things right!”

This does not actually mean a lot. How are they going to make things right? I would prefer to see a money-back guarantee so that if any issue occurs you can get your money back in full.

There are a few supplements that offer these types of guarantee and it shows me that they are confident in their own product.

The Pros And Cons

The pros and cons of Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women are as follows:

Pros

Energy-boosting benefits

Affordable

Mostly positive reviews

Cons

Very little proof that it works

Doubts over the legitimacy of the user reviews

Dubious guarantee

Customer Reviews And Complaints Amazon and Reddit

Customer reviews from Amazon are mostly positive with people submitting rather impressive sounding reviews:

“This product worked great for me. Please note that all bodies differ. Firstly, I have never had a surgical procedure unless giving birth to two boys is considered one. Secondly, I run three days a week ( 20 minutes, 2.5 miles). However, I’m a horrible dieter; I don’t eat much vegetables and I don’t drink the recommended amount of water. I take the recommended dosage of the Nobi fat burner every morning at the same time (8:00am). I’m a SAHM ( for now) so on the days that I don’t run, I’m super lazy. I hope my honest review help answers all questions. And also, I do not plan to take this product forever. Purchasing 2 or 3 times a year should help get you towards your goal because you never want to depend on it ( because sooner or later it won’t work the same) probably because the manufacturer exchanged primary ingredients for something cheaper or because the manufacturers really don’t care about your end goals so they exchanged primary ingredient with something worse and probably addictive. Good luck to you all!”

“This product is great! I’ve been using it for 2 weeks and have lost a total of 6 pounds. I workout/run 5 times a week and I’m definitely sweating up a storm while working out. It doesn’t upset my stomach and doesn’t give me the jitters like other weight loss pills. I take it first thing in the morning in an empty stomach, wait an hour to eat and go on with my day. I most definitely recommend.”

There are also the occasional 1-star reviews too, which are to be expected:

“This did absolutely nothing. I wouldn’t waste your money. I took this exactly how it was recommended plus exercise and eating well balanced and still nothing. I am skeptical of these types of pills but was desperate to try anything that would actually work. Disappointed again!”

“This may work for some, but not me. I did not change my diet as I already follow a low carb plan. I thought it would boost my metabolism and give me more energy. It didn’t. I also lost 0 lbs while taking this supplement.”

What is worrying is that when checking the legitimacy of these reviews using a website called Fakespot , only 62.3% of reviews were shown to be reliable.

That is quite a high percentage, and if almost 40% of these unreliable reviews were positive ones how can you trust that this fat burner even offers any benefit?

Return, Refund And Guarantees

According to the listing on Amazon they state:

“If you are unhappy with your Womens Fat Burner, contact Nobi Nutrition directly. We will make things right!”

This does not actually mean a lot. How are they going to make things right? I would prefer to see a money-back guarantee so that if any issue occurs you can get your money back in full.

There are a few supplements that offer these types of guarantee and it shows me that they are confident in their own product.

The Pros And Cons

The pros and cons of Nobi Nutrition Premium Fat Burner for Women are as follows:

Pros

Energy-boosting benefits

Affordable

Mostly positive reviews

Cons

Very little proof that it works

Doubts over the legitimacy of the user reviews

Dubious guarantee

Customer Reviews And Complaints Amazon and Reddit

Customer reviews from Amazon are mostly positive with people submitting rather impressive sounding reviews:

There are also the occasional 1-star reviews too, which are to be expected:

What is worrying is that when checking the legitimacy of these reviews using a website called Fakespot , only 62.3% of reviews were shown to be reliable.

That is quite a high percentage, and if almost 40% of these unreliable reviews were positive ones how can you trust that this fat burner even offers any benefit?

The Pros and Cons of Is Cervical Dysplasia Always Caused By HPV

One could strengthen the immune system and therefore typically create immunity to an HPV infection in only as short of time as a few months, prior to the time that it might establish any kind of serious damage. (See Book Sneak Preview)

By chance have you formerly endured a runny nose? By chance did you get rid of it? Obviously you survived it! You can't treat a common cold directly, yet your immune system generally creates resistance to a particular cold infection within several weeks. We call that cured by your personal immune system!

And definitely you will most likely get an additional runny nose virus, because there are more than several hundred different runny nose viruses. However you will unlikely get the very same cold infection that you had before since you have established immunity to it.

Grownups have previously had a lot of the cold infections. Parents have developed resistance to the colds they have actually suffered from. Therefore there are not quite as many cold viruses around for adults to catch. That is why parents only succumb to a few colds each year and kids usually get a dozen Dysplasia Of Cervix High Grade CIN 2 runny noses per year.

Human papilloma virus is similar in that human papilloma virus is just another viral infection. Therefore you will generally establish immunity to HPV. Nonetheless, HPV virus is more adept at evading your immune system than are the runny nose viruses. Moreover you should work a little harder to develop immunity to human papilloma virus.

Assuming one does not do anything it could take a couple of years to establish immunity to HPV virus. If somebody follows the writer's advice, it requires just a few months to establish resistance to human papilloma virus. The longer somebody is infected with HPV, the more likely it could cause cervical damage. So it is preferred to create resistance so as to remove human papilloma virus as quickly as possible.

Somebody may strengthen the body's immune system and therefore generally develop resistance to an HPV infection in only just a few months, sooner than it can make any type of significant injury. (Book Review)

Many individuals get confused because they believe they have actually not generated resistance to HPV virus simply since they get contaminated again by a different type of the over 100 HPV viruses. But somebody could avoid future exposure as well as future HPV infections.

Clearly this publication sheds light on HPV issues, the most usual STD infections in the United States, impacting over 20 million males and females. Human papilloma virus creates cervical dysplasia, cervical cancer cells, genital protuberances, plantar verrucas, losing unborn babies, the inability to conceive as well as penile cancer cells.

It matters not how this publication got into your possession. Exactly what is of concern is exactly how you utilize such information just like hundreds of others who have eliminated human papilloma virus.

The insightful author shares how she normally turned around the symptoms of HPV virus as well as completely recovered her very own body of the HPV problem by strengthening her immunity.

Exactly what the heck is HPV virus? The author remembers asking herself this question when she got the medical diagnosis back https://www.washingtonpost.com/newssearch/?query=Cervical Dysplasia Cures from her gynecologist. The author was ravaged, perplexed as well as embarrassed. The writer had tons of concerns yet she did not like the responses she was getting. Human papilloma virus, a sexually-transmitted issue that may cause cervical cancer, is more typical than what most assume. The writer wrote this publication to help others get rid of HPV virus.

Someone can enhance immunity and normally create resistance to an HPV virus in literally just a few months, sooner than it might create any kind of important infection. (Book Review)

Right here is the situation, this book is about recovery from HPV, but it is not only concerning HPV. It is about living the best life we could live. It has to do with acknowledging HPV virus as an incredible chance to take obligation for our own health and wellness. When viewed from this perspective, a person could be grateful for HPV virus. Yes, thankful! And with that appreciation and whatever else shared in this publication, somebody could, and someone will certainly, recover the body! She knows this works due to the fact that it helped her - it changed her life and also her health.

Look at what many are saying concerning this motivating publication: "Incredible! I acquired the Kindle Edition. This book is fantastic! I was specifically relieved as well as delighted by the information I found within Chapter 10 regarding the supplement that you refer to as the magic active ingredient in the food recovery chapter."

"Thank you for once more for putting in the time to share all your research, and also lifestyle adjustment for removing HPV. Your favorable outlook changed my attitude towards myself, and also the virus."

Someone may strengthen the immune system and consequently usually establish resistance to an HPV infection in only a matter of a couple of months, sooner than it could make any type of serious cervical injury. (Selected Chapters of Book)

"It is so true that your publication can aid any kind of female, including my friend with female cancer."

"This quick-read book provides legitimate encouragement to females identified with cervical-dysplasia-cures.com/s/DYS1/Mild-Moderate-Severe-Dysplasia-9.php HPV virus. I am so thankful I read it numerous months back, due to the fact that I appreciated her frankness and agree totally that HPV virus is an infection, not an ethical judgment. Most recent medical tests show my high grade dysplasia has vanished."

"Thanks again for writing this publication, I am so satisfied with it because without this publication and also your words of encouragement I might be totally without hope. Thank you! (Short Review of Book)"

You can enhance the body's immune system and therefore usually develop resistance to an HPV infection in basically just a couple of months, sooner than it might originate any type of compelling injury. (Selected Chapters of Book)

Perchance have you previously endured a common cold? By any chance did you get rid of the issue? Of course you did! You will not heal an acute rhinitis itself, however your system typically establishes immunity to a specific cold infection within a couple of days. We call that treated by your personal immune system!

And of course you will probably succumb to a different runny nose virus, since there exist over 300 various runny nose infections. But you will never ever acquire the same cold infection that you had in the past since you have actually developed immunity to that cold virus.

Grownups have in the past had a great deal of the https://cervical-dysplasia-cures.com/s/DYS1/Mild-Squamous-Dysplasia-CIN-1-6.php runny nose viruses. Grownups have actually developed resistance to the ones they have suffered from. Therefore there are not so many cold infections existing for grownups to catch. That is why grownups only get infected with a couple of runny noses annually whereas kids may get 10-12 runny noses per year.

HPV is comparable because human papilloma virus is simply another virus. Therefore you can generally create resistance to human papilloma virus. However, HPV virus is more adept at concealing from your body's immune system compared to the common cold infections. Therefore you have to work harder to get immunity to HPV virus.

Assuming someone does not do anything it might take a few years to develop resistance to HPV. If a person takes the author's recommendations, it requires just a couple of months to establish immunity to human papilloma virus. The longer a person is infected with HPV virus, the longer it can create cervical damage. So it is ideal to establish immunity and do away with HPV virus as soon as possible.

You may enhance immunity and usually create resistance to an HPV infection in literally a matter of a few months, before it can trigger any type of compelling cervical damage. (Sneak Peak Book Review)

Some individuals get confused because they think they have not developed resistance to HPV virus simply due to the fact that they become infected again by a different type of the over 100 HPV infections. However someone might prevent future exposure as well as new human papilloma virus infections.

This amazing publication sheds light on HPV virus problems, one of the most usual STD infections in the United States, impacting over 20 million males and females. HPV creates cervical dysplasia, cervical cancer, genital warts, plantar growths, losing unborn babies, inability to conceive and penile cancer cells.

It matters not how this material entered your hands. Just what matters is how you utilize such data just like thousands of others who have gotten rid of human papilloma virus.

The insightful writer communicates how she normally eliminated the signs of HPV virus and also absolutely recovered her very own body of the HPV issue by enhancing her body's immune response.

Real numbers from a real Instagram influencer (with 100K+ followers)

Well, well, well. I’ve suddenly discovered the secrets of being an Instagram influencer.

Follow me on Twitter

These “influencer” pitches I’m getting now make me laugh and laugh.

I can see the conference room conversation:

Boss: “OK Johnson, we gotta sell these yellow braided leather belts…hey what about that guy Ramit?”

Johnson: “Um, I think he talks about money and business.”

Boss: “Does he wear leather belts?”

Johnson: “Um, I’ve actually never seen him wearing a bel—“

Boss: “WHO WOULD TURN DOWN A FREE BELT?? ONCE HE SEES IT AND POSTS ABOUT US AND TAGS US 3 TIMES AND WRITES ABOUT IT ON HIS NEWSLETTER, WE’LL BE RICH! HE IS THE MAKE-YOU-RICH GUY, RIGHT???”

Now, with 140K followers on Instagram, I’m not that big. But I guess I crossed some mysterious D-list “influencer” level where companies now offer me free stuff (that I do not want). BTW, where were these free things when I had no money and would have actually worn a yellow belt??

Being on the receiving end of these pitches has been great. I get to see, firsthand, the underworld of influencers and deals.

And as I dug deeper, I started to realize a few more things about these offers.

INSTAGRAM INFLUENCER INSIGHT #1: If you win…you lose

If you’re hoping to become an influencer and get paid to post stuff, you need 100K+ followers. (There are lots of bigger celebs, but I’m talking about the goals of an ordinary person starting out.)

And yet, here I am with 140,000 followers…and these influencer offers suck!

Imagine I’d spent 2 years hustling and posting pics of beaches and inspirational quotes like “HUSTLE HARD, FLOW EASY,” knowing that if I just hit my goal of 100K followers, I’d eventually be getting money thrown at me…

…then imagine what it would feel like to watch my follower # tick up from 99,999 followers…

…and suddenly watch my first “influencer” offer come in — to promote Raid, the bug spray?

LOL! Follow me on Twitter

The key lesson here is to know about life goals where if you WIN…you actually LOSE.

If you’ve spent years and years thinking about doing something, find out if winning is really what you want.

If your DREAM is to buy a house, go ask 10 homeowners how they like it

If you’re thinking about getting married or having kids, go ask 10 married people/parents the true pros/cons (be sure to ask people you admire)

If you’ve spent 3 years in college thinking you want to go to law school, ask 10 lawyers if they like their job

For those of you thinking of becoming an IG influencer, allow me: If you somehow get 100,000 followers…you can expect to get bags of popcorn thrown at you. Wow.

INSTAGRAM INFLUENCER INSIGHT #2: Build assets, not random posts

Hey, listen. If you want to make an extra couple hundred bucks a month promoting how much you love some random mattress, be my guest. I think it’s great that more and more people are thinking about how to increase their earnings instead of cutting back on lattes.

But I really want people to think bigger. The opportunity is not just to hustle and make $500.

The real opportunity here is to build a REAL ASSET.

Allow me to illustrate the 3 levels of knowledge about assets:

Level 1: Ordinary Americans who spend more than they earn.

“Asset? What’s an asset? I just want to buy that car. It’s so cool.” Most Americans never think about earning more at all — they spend more than they earn, and they buy whatever they want because they want it. Then they enter the predictable pattern of trying to cut back on inconsequential spending, feeling puritanically guilty about their poor spending habits, becoming radicalized about taxes and blaming the government, and finally dying.

Level 2: Ordinary Americans who think they know about assets.

A small percentage of people hear the word “asset” and basically take their purchases — a car, a house, etc. — and try to convince themselves they’re assets. “What? That marble countertop is a great investment. It will raise the value of my house, which is an investment.” I’m sorry but you are very wrong. The good news is that your heart is in the right place.

Level 3: Americans who know what an asset actually is (and/or have read I Will Teach You To Be Rich).

Finally, a very small percentage of people realize they can spend on things they love — but also slowly accumulate assets that will pay them far into the future. These assets can be an investment portfolio, a business, real estate. Eventually these assets can provide more than a salary ever could.

Chapter 7 of my New York Times best-selling book: How to build an investment portfolio that will earn you more than your salary

I love that a lot of the IWT community thinks about earning more (not just cutting back). Some people are doing 1-on-1 coaching, others have created video courses, and lots more. But you can go further and think beyond a random IG post or next month’s earnings. Let me show you what I mean.

NOT AN ASSET: Promoting a new frozen carrot product from Procter & Gamble on your Instagram account with 187 followers A REAL ASSET: Building a business that generates $500/month or $50,000/month (we’ve helped people do both)

An asset can generate value even when you’re not actively working on it.

By the way, you don’t need a business to build an asset. If you have a 9-5 job, you can build an asset by setting up automatic investments, even at $50/mo or $200/month (which will generate tens of thousands of dollars). I show you how in my book

If you want to build a product — and turn that into a side business or a full-time business — I show you how to do that in my FREE Ultimate Guide to Business.

Example of an automatic asset: $2,500 from one customer

Here’s an example: Last week, on a random day, we sold a copy of a product I created about 6 years ago:

That customer went on to buy a second product:

That’s ~$2,500 from one customer.

He went through tons of free blog posts, videos, and emails we spent time creating — and eventually finding it so valuable, happily paid us thousands of dollars. And it all happened automatically.

So, I love seeing behind the curtain of Instagram influencer ads. They’re probably not right for me, but it’s good to know the type of offers that are being thrown around.

But instead of one-off ads, I focus on a system. Build an asset in life. It takes more work upfront, but it is infinitely more valuable.

Ramit Sethi CEO, I Will Teach You To Be Rich

P.S. I’ll talk more about creating assets on Instagram and Twitter. Follow me there!

P.P.S. If you want more time to build your assets, check out the course of the week: Delegate and Done. This is my exact playbook to save 20 hours per week and delegate tiny, mundane tasks that never really add to your life.

Here’s a taste of what I’ve delegated to my assistant, Jill:
