admin

After being married for over 10 years, raising 3 children and getting along with my husband has been such a challenge that I left my teaching career behind and headed into my new career which is being a full-time wife and mother. In my youth, I was a jazz singer, a rock band vocalist, then became a drummer’s girlfriend, and finally became his wife. I have learned so much about how to treat and talk to men, that I can actually tell how they think and how they react to women. I can say that I know boys better than most girls because I have always been around them, since I was young, I had 3 brothers, all my best friends growing up were all boys, I enjoy their company even at school because they don’t gossip much and they don’t like drama much. All the bands I’ve been in were male dominated, I’ve seen them do things and heard them talk to each other, like there’s no woman around because they all consider me one of them. My best friend and my man, who always loses to me in our drinking competition, is a drummer and a painter, and I married him. My goal is to make my marriage last, and make it fun, while I’m in the process.

So let me share 5 techniques to ensure a peaceful and harmonious relationship with your husband, as I have learned from all the men I have talked to and observed. I am still learning more and am on a never-ending quest to maintain a good relationship with my husband. Hopefully, these tips will help you get along with your husband, the man you want to spend the rest of your life with…

How to get along with your husband in 5 easy ways:

1. Get to know the real him: Don’t focus too much on the background, the past, and the skeletons in your closet. If her goal is to get along with her husband, finding out too much about his past and her previous activities and relationships may cause her to react negatively and be suspicious of his every move. What I mean by getting to know the real me of him is finding out how he thinks, his passion and getting to know his interests and hobbies. If you think you know her husband because you’ve been together for so long, you might be surprised that you do or don’t have much in common after all. Unlike women, men still think that even after they get married, going out with boys, going to bars, and playing sports is still fun and interesting. They are also more inclined to pick up new interests and activities that their friends are currently in. Remember, like most men, her husband wants to keep up with his friends and, like a high school boy, wants to “go with the flow.” For example, James, a husband with 2 children and has been married for 10 years, admits that he hates the Saturday night movie marathon with his wife and his children. “I love my wife and kids, and I’d like to spend as much quality time with them as I can, but I can’t sit on the couch and watch 3 movies in a row, I’d rather take them out for dinner. Kiss the wife, take the kids to bed and then hang out with my friends at the bar I used to go to. “I’d also like to catch up with my friend Lawrence, who just made his first million in real estate, and hangs out at the bar every Saturday. My wife won’t understand, so I play along and pretend to wait.” Looking forward to our Saturday nights.”

Knowing his interests, you can jump ahead of him and suggest that he might want to do this and that with his friends, and you’ll be surprised at the big smile your husband gives you, and you’d probably buy into it. that $300 pair of shoes you’ve been praying for, just because you let him do his thing. For most men, giving them freedom and supporting them with their recreational activities is showing how much you love them. Better still, if she finds that her husband’s new hobby interests you too, she may want to join him and spend more time with him and do some things that you both enjoy.

2. Understand your husband and try to find out how he thinks: If you are not a graduate in psychology, or an expert in body language or profiling, don’t rely too much on your assumptions and don’t be sure you know how your husband thinks. husband thinks. They think differently from us, and it’s hard to read her thoughts behind her smiles and sweet words. Even if you are not an expert in psychology, do not despair, there are ways to know what he is thinking. Women often assume that men think like us and share the same priorities as us. Again, we return to the differences between a man and a woman. A man does not think like us, sometimes he acts like us, performs tasks that we would do, and sometimes he talks like us. But more often, while doing what they think we want them to do, they think, “I’d rather hang out with the kids and play basketball than help with the kitchen chores, if it wasn’t for the in-laws coming over for dinner,” and /or “the reward I will get from my wife tonight if I do a great job.” Mike, one of my closest friends at the office and a really nice guy, is a husband with 3 young children and has been doing laundry since his wife gave birth to his second child. His wife boasts to her friends that her husband, unlike theirs, works very hard, but he still does the laundry and enjoys it. Mike admits to me that he hates doing homework, saying, “I love my wife and I still feel guilty about my affair a few years ago. I don’t want her to find out about it, so I show her how much I love her.” and since I regret having an affair, I do the laundry.” Not only is there a lingering rift between him and Mike’s wife, which his wife doesn’t know about, but Mike also tortures himself and fails to handle his guilt properly This went on for several years, partly because Mike’s wife assumed she knew how her husband thought Mike is secretly unhappy.

To learn how to find out or say what your husband is thinking, you need to communicate with him in a way that doesn’t feel like you’re spying on him, or just snooping around because you’re setting up a fight. Instead of talking too much, she tries to quietly observe and participate in the small talk that her husband starts. Another effective way to find out your husband’s inner thoughts is to meet her friends, since more men open up to their friends than to their wives. When you get a chance to talk to your husband’s friends, talk to them without alienating them and try to find out what your husband is like when you’re not around. Start with a very light and informal conversation, throw in some humor if you can, and when your friends feel comfortable enough, they tend to spill the beans. Also, listen to your husband and pay attention. If you feel like he is hiding something from you and you think you should find out what it is because you want your marriage to last, listen to what he says and how he says it. Instead of assuming your man is so good, “he does what he has to do without telling me,” you should take the time to figure out what he thinks is fun and pleasurable, and what he thinks is tormenting and difficult. That way, you can support him with his likes and help him avoid or deal with his dislikes. When you understand your husband well enough, you will be able to communicate with him more effectively and peacefully.

3. Don’t Criticize Your Husband: Unless he’s asking for your honest opinion, which is really “Can you calm me down and boost my confidence?”, you don’t want to start a conversation by criticizing him. If you feel like telling him the truth, say, for example, that he looks like Barney in his favorite purple shirt he’s wearing in your daughter’s school play, that you personally want to rip his shirt off before you both go inside. to the car, say “Honey, that’s a nice shirt, but not for the school play because I think the stage is decorated with purple curtains.” Later, if he sees that the stage doesn’t have any purple on it, he’ll think and probably ask you why you said that the stage has purple curtains, you can lie and say that the school changed it, or you can tell him the truth. that the shirt isn’t as pretty as he thinks, but he goes on to say that you’re much more handsome in that shirt you’re wearing now than with the purple. Do you understand my point? Men hate being criticized, especially if their critic is the wife. Compliment as often and as sincerely as you can, and be careful about your “honest opinions.” You can provide feedback, which should include both the good and the bad, but avoid simple criticism if you want your husband to enjoy his company.

4. Know when to speak up and when to shut up – Good communication is always key, I can’t stress that enough. Don’t get me wrong, I’m too much of a woman and I hate men who complain that women talk too much, especially if a woman is right. But the fact of the matter is that we have an objective, and that is to avoid arguments and fights, to please our husbands and to get along with them. As a woman, I know how wives feel and how much we need to get our point across, but honestly, we don’t need to overdo it. Nobody likes a chatty mouth and a scolding, not in the office, not in restaurants, and certainly not at home. Men and women alike are attracted to people who are intelligent and soft-spoken, who only open their mouths when necessary. The nicest people I know are the quiet and friendly ones, and the people I stay away from are the loud and boisterous ones, who talk all day. A friend of mine who was engaged to a beautiful and attractive model, who was rumored to have dumped him, was surprisingly happy at another friend’s party that we both attended. I asked her if the rumors were true, and she said, “Yes, we broke up, but can you keep a secret? I was the one who dumped her, and since she has a career, I chose to lie and tell everyone that she dumped her.” me.” Naturally, I asked him what happened to a perfectly beautiful and successful model, and he replied, “She wouldn’t shut up!” Of course, at the time I didn’t believe him, and thought maybe it was just his way of getting back at her and that her embarrassment was too much. So when I had the chance to meet this female model, I wanted to confirm my friend’s statement. And wouldn’t you know it, I was just passing by telling her my name, when she opened her mouth , and it was like Pandora opened her box. My friend is right! She just wouldn’t shut up and her voice is close to a scream and what’s worse is her endless cursing. I can’t blame my friend for leaving his fiancée model after meeting her. The bottom line is that men and women hate people who talk too much. If your husband wants to talk to you, make sure you don’t turn your conversation into a talk show, with you as the host. Less talking, less problems.

5. Have fun with your husband: You may not think that watching a basketball game is a good idea for an anniversary date, but if it guarantees enjoyment for your husband, then you should consider it and have as much fun as you can with your husband. . We never share exactly the same interests and fascination with anyone, we all have our differences. No matter what it is, as long as it doesn’t compromise your time and morale, what the heck, do it. If he likes mountaineering, get trained and then hike with him. At first, having fun with your husband means that you enjoy his company while he enjoys his activities and you support him. Eventually, if you really love your man, and see that your little sacrifice makes him very happy, you will be surprised that an activity that is boring or unimportant to you, turns out to be incredibly fun when you see the smile on his face. , enjoying the moment, with you.

The history of craft beer is impressive

admin

Ruhstaller Beer of today represents itself as a revival of the Ruhstaller Brewery of the late 1880s, both of which have a heritage of Sacramento beer and hops. But the similarities continue between past and present with the strong commitment to locally sourced ingredients and quality. Today’s Ruhstaller’s has a California ingredients list that shows almost exclusively California sources. Ruhstaller Brewery of the past was also a highly regarded local ingredients brewery for several decades, starting just after the California Gold Rush era (1849-1855) and disappearing due to Prohibition from 1920 to 1933.

Captain Frank Ruhstaller came to the United States at age 15, arriving in Sacramento in 1865. In Sacramento he began working in breweries and a few years later bought his first brewery. Upon his death in 1907, the local newspaper wrote in his obituary: “Surely no death has caused more sorrow in this city than that of Captain Frank J. Ruhstaller.” He was a beloved gentleman by all accounts.

The backstory on today’s Ruhstaller beer focuses on Sacramento as it was with the original Ruhstaller brewery. Frank Ruhstaller built the largest brewery west of the Mississippi in Sacramento. That’s amazing because Sacramento, at one point, had 16 breweries in the city. Much of Sacramento’s economic success was based on population growth (due to the Gold Rush), agriculture, large water sources, the railroad, and access to the sea. From 1870 to 1880, the Sacramento region became the hop capital of the world due to the success of quality beer. Regional hop growers even exported their hops to Europe.

An interesting fact from the time is that Adolphus Busch came to the United States in 1857. In 1861, he married the daughter of another German immigrant named Eberhard Anheuser. Mr. Anheuser had opened a small brewery in St. Louis, MO in 1857. After the Civil War, Busch went to work for his mother-in-law at the Anheuser Brewery located “west of the Mississippi.” Here’s what’s interesting: Frank Ruhstaller had built the Ruhstaller Brewery empire in Sacramento to be the largest west of the Mississippi in 1881. He did it on his own.

In an era in California where agriculture was king, it was the quantity, quality and variety of hops that was astounding for the time. Sacramento would eventually become the primary supplier of hops to much of the world’s and American breweries.

Ruhstaller Brewery (formerly) could be said to be one of the first premium craft breweries. They produced a steam beer 15 years before Anchor Steam was founded. According to Beer-FAQ, “Steam beer is a style of beer that originated in California during the Gold Rush. They are typically clear and crisp like a lager, but also full-bodied like an ale. The flavor is toasty and malty but with fairly aggressive hopping and carbonation.The brewing process is unique in that it uses lager yeast but brewed at warmer beer temperatures.“

Taking the banner from the original Rruhstaller Brewery, in 2011 Ruhstaller Beer began operations. The culture of the early Ruhstaller Brewery is the foundation of today’s award-winning “Ruhstaller Beer•Sacramento.” The founder and leader of Ruhstaller Beer is Mr. JE Paino. JE, as he prefers to be called, graduated from UC Davis with a bachelor’s degree in business administration; the brewing race came later. He strikes me as a down-to-earth person who appreciates a team approach and is totally customer focused. Like many who build companies, he is driven by the quality of his ingredients and that quality starts with the hops, Sacramento hops, that is.

JE has been very methodical in building an award-winning craft beer company brand, building on a rich Sacramento history in beer, grains and hops. The company has invested a great deal of time and money to nurture the hop industry that remains today. From 3 local hop farms, enough hops are produced to supply Ruhstaller Beer with most of the hops they need, except for the 5% that comes from outside of California. Even the barley comes from farmers in Northern California.

JE is not shy about his belief that California offers the best environmental/terroir conditions for growing premium hops. “I’ve tried it on our own 10 acres of hops,” Paino says. As he drives west on I-80 in Dixon, CA, he can see his hop farm on the side of the road. “At Ruhstaller Beer, we believe that great beer starts with the best ingredients. Like our founder, Captain Frank Ruhstaller, we’re partnering with California hop and barley farmers to grow the best California ingredients for our beers.

To show how serious Ruhstaller Beer is about their commitment to ingredients, they started a hop school to teach the history of Ruhstaller, the techniques necessary to grow premium hops, and to help consumers understand the foundation of good beer. beer. In fact, the class is not free, in 2019 they charged $30 per participant for 6 sessions and gave lunch and beer.

Interestingly, Sacramento was the hop capital of the world and that era is generally acknowledged to have begun around 1850. A hop grower from that period started a hop farm located at what is now the University of Sacramento. By 1904, that producer was supplying hops to the Guinness Brewery.

Research indicates that most people buy craft beer based on regional identity, a recommendation, a positive testing experience, label design, and brand loyalty. If a brewery owner and his employees are passionate about what they are doing, they will inherently drive quality and customer recognition. The value of quality, passion and a recognizable corporate culture that is recognizable will drive consumer brand loyalty.

To paraphrase a legendary New York City advertising genius: If you don’t sell, everything else doesn’t matter. Ruhstaller Beer’s marketing approach has probably had a profound impact on the brand. As just noted, Ruhstaller Beer•Sacramento builds on a storied regional name known for consistent quality, support from local growers, and an identity consumers can identify with. From faucet handles made from old farm implements to the stylized abstract silhouette of a man with a cigar and the name ‘Sacramento’ on its labels; they have created a brand that is easy to understand and creates affinity. Who doesn’t like a success story built on the early history of an upstart Western brewery?

In it Yolo County News Bret Johnson’s article, JE Paino (founder of Ruhstaller Beer) says of beer marketing: “You can’t just have a good story with a good name. You have to have good beer first. When Sacramento was the -region in Growing up in America before Prohibition, brewers competed on quality, not Super Bowl ads. Not gimmicks. It had to be good beer. It was supposed to be better beer.” The Ruhstaller family gifted Paino one of the original gold-rimmed glasses.

In that same interview, Paino predicted that beers brewed with local hops will cost an extra 50 cents per bottle. To justify the cost, it is essential that the consumer be aware of the value and purpose of quality ingredients that add aromas, flavor and mouthfeel to the quality craft beer experience.

It’s about Ruhstaller Beer•Sacramento: Yes, the name does matter. The resurrection of the iconic JE Paino name comes with the best wishes from the surviving Frank Ruhstaller family. Today’s Ruhstaller beer is unique in the craft beer industry because of its history. This craft beer brand has roots dating back to 1881 in its humble beginnings. The history of Ruhstaller Beer today is the documented history of Frank Ruhstaller, the history of Sacramento as the beer capital of the western half of the US, the history of ingredient sourcing, and a deep history of corporate culture. We can always learn from the masters of yesteryear. Mr. JE Paino adds to Ruhstaller’s legacy/history by adding a deep understanding of building brand loyalty over true quality.

History can make a good beer!

Renovate your mobile home and save energy

admin

Although the details may vary slightly from home to home, the average mobile home built up until the mid-1980s is built with 2 x 4-in. exterior walls and RSI 2.1 (R-12) fiber insulation. Mid 80’s to present day: Exterior walls are 2 x 6 inches. walls with R-20 wadding insulation. The ceiling insulation is R-24 to R-34.

Mobile homes built before the mid-1970s are less airtight than newer homes. Leakage areas are generally distributed throughout the unit, but in double-width homes, the seam between the two halves can be a significant source of air leakage. In fact, if you combine all the fonts, there’s an average of 12 x 13 inches. air gap.

Homes with forced air systems often do not have cold air ducts that prevent ventilation of the entire unit. Homes typically sit on stilt foundations with an uninsulated and unheated crawl space.

The following are improvements you can make that will help save energy in your mobile home. Savings potential varies by year and the condition of your unit and your location. They are designed to reduce:

– energy used
– drafts
– summer overheating
– humidity and condensation problems
– outside noise
– Emissions of greenhouse gases
– improve humidity levels
– improve indoor air quality
– increase the overall comfort level

1. Heating:

Replace the furnace with a high-efficiency model based on the size of your mobile home. In some cases, the furnace can be combined with the water heater so that only one unit is required. Seal any conduit where you can easily access it. Install programmable thermostats to automatically lower temperatures at night or when you’re not around.

2. Drafts:

Seal air leaks around light fixtures, wiring, where utilities enter through walls or floors, and in double-width homes, the joint where the two halves meet. Better air sealing will also keep humidity levels from dropping, but if levels drop below 30 percent, consider adding a humidifier.

3. Insulation:

Increase ceiling insulation to a minimum of R-28. If your unit has a vaulted ceiling, the change can be made from the inside with little impact on ceiling height. Rigid board insulation (with taped seams), can also be attached to the ceiling and covered with gypsum board. Insulate hot water pipes with pipe insulation and insulate the hot water tank.

4. Windows:

Replace windows with an array of low-e, energy-efficient, argon gas double-glazed windows. Make sure the seam around the window frame is well sealed and the weatherstripping is in good condition.

5. Exterior doors:

If your unit has the older wooden exterior doors, consider replacing them with the insulated metal version. They are durable, easy to maintain, and look great. Repair any damaged weather stripping. You may want to consider adding a small vestibule to trap cold air before entering the house in areas with bad weather.

6. Bases and crawl spaces:

For houses on pile foundations, make sure the gable is fully insulated and the roadway barrier is in good condition.

Reduce moisture by covering dirt or concrete floors by placing a continuous layer of polyethylene on top, running 6 inches up the wall.

4 Crucial Ways to Control Android App Development Costs

admin

One of the main concerns for most companies when looking for lower application development costs due to budget pressure is quality. It’s always undemanding to compromise on app quality while cutting costs when, inevitably, quality is the cornerstone of the apps people love most. Therefore, when there are many ways to reduce application development costs without impacting aspects of UX design and QA, it is prudent for companies to invest in one. Here are some tips to tactfully cut the expenses involved in developing an app.

Destination number devices/platforms

The outlay of developing an app corresponds directly to the operating system platforms and mobile devices that it targets in the marketplace. All major platforms like Android, Windows, and iOS have their own limitations and potentialities. The higher the number of target platforms, the higher your development expenses. Apart from adding hassles, Android app development has various classifications on the devices. So it is smarter to choose a preferred platform and range of devices according to the target audience as it is purely efficient.

Go to an MVP app

The MVP (Minimal Viable Product) concept does not pressure developers to reinvent the wheel. When it’s always difficult to incorporate all the unique ideas into an app to make it more interesting, developing an app with just the core idea is enough. App creators are encouraged to define their target users, analyze market trends, brainstorm with a development team, and then narrow down ideas to the most prospective ones. This results in the development of a really useful application with cost savings.

iterate the process

Outsourcing to in-province mobile app development pioneers is a great way to eliminate cost overruns. When the development task is handed over to an eminent company, they divide the entire process into iterations. This results in more accurate cost estimates and helps customers plan their budget based on the cost involved in tasks for each iteration. Additionally, developers can make any changes to the app in between at the request of customers, saving money that would have been wasted if changes were made after release.

Minimize the use of custom processes or graphics

Finally, an easy way for app investors to control cost is to restrict the use of custom layouts, animations, fonts, and graphics in the app. Full customization is not necessary at all when various basic elements like the way of navigation, buttons are common in most apps and app stores have come up with their own UI/UX guidelines. Therefore, it’s wise to stick to the basics and standards of application development and opt for customization only when it’s appropriate to do so.

In this mobile-first era, where mobile apps have become the advantageous medium for businesses to boost their marketing, businesses without a custom app will fail to get ahead of the competition. Therefore, these above mentioned points are sure ways for companies to develop an app without feeling a strain on their pockets and keeping its quality intact.
