Many people find it stressful to move to a new house due to many #household items which are heavy and fragile. Unpacking too is a tiresome job if things were not packed in an orderly manner. Luckily professionals and expert movers have come up with tips and ways of packing in order to make every move on that specific day #systematic and smooth.
Get rid of the things you don’t use or need
When you are planning to move into a new house, consider getting rid of things that you no longer use. These include clothes, shoes, electronics and kitchen items such as old #coffee #makers and other items. Consider packing these items and give them to people of good will around your community. By so doing, the bulk of unnecessary items will reduce hence making the items to be packed to be less. It will also minimize overcrowding in your new house.
Consider looking for the best moving company one month prior the moving day
Compare prices of the moving companies and any other terms of payment to prevent unexpected costs during the #moving day. Also, check the moving company that you have chosen if it is licensed to ascertain the security of your items. Plan with the company the best flexible day to move in. It is also crucial to map the best and easiest route to use before the moving day. Look for possible traffic; detour and other constructions that might be scheduled on a moving day. This will make the journey more manageable and less tiresome as there will be no obstructions on the way.
When you are moving to a new house, start packing as early.
Start with things that are not being used for the time being. This includes decorations, some clothes, books that you have already read and other things that might not be of use. This is done by buying boxes from a nearby shop together with different packing materials like packing tapes, cardboard boxes, putty, extra screws and wrapping papers from a nearby hardware store. Pack items like books, toiletries, clothes as well as kitchen utensils in separate boxes and label the boxes at the top and on sides. This will make unpacking an easy task as each box will be taken to where those items are kept. Also, number your boxes to make sure that all things reached and no box was stolen.
Stop shopping like two weeks earlier
To avoid wasting any #food, consume all the shopping at home. Don’t buy more supplies unless you need them. Also, you can call friends and neighbors to take extra shopping that you might have. Pack extra toiletries and cleaning items in a different bag. These are items that will be used immediately when you rich the new home. Consider also packing extra clothes, laptop, and any other thing that you might need before unpacking. Call friends and relatives to help you in packing when you are moving to your new house. During the moving day ensure all things are handled with care especially electronics and other fragile items .When you reach to your new home, put someone in charge of unpacking process. This will help the task move smoothly without wasting time. Consider taking a picture of the new house before bringing your items inside. This is to show any damage that would be there.
Finally, appreciate all the people who helped you by ordering food, drinks, and snacks for them.
Relocated from the former Roses space at Ashton Square to the former Marshalls space at Plantation Point Shopping Center
Nature never ceases to amaze me - how did the couple communicate this move. First he had a mouthful of grasses that he took to the old home - I assume to keep the babies busy eating while he moved them one by one. When he returned - his wife was following (not carrying a baby) and he had the first baby. She stayed on the new nest in the marsh while he retrieved the rest of their family. It was a lot of fun to watch and we were lucky to be in the right place at the right time.
2 1/2 hours later he had moved 5 babies and must have been exhausted - he went back to the old home, but hadn't returned within 45 minutes so we left. He was aware of me, even though I was at a respectable distance and he would swim by quickly - changed my camera body to the 7D for a faster shutter speed with the available evening light. Some babies were moved upside down, others with their bum toward me so it was nice that this one's head was facing my way. The marsh is surrounded by trees as you can see reflected in the water. He was moving them from one pond to another and had to dive under a culvert with the baby in his mouth - this is just as they are breaking the surface of the water.
Dropping in to say hello - I was hoping to be back on flickr more regularly but it hasn't worked out - hopefully I'll be back soon. Miss you all and want you to know that I check your images every chance I get. Will catch up on your latest tonight.

Use the right size boxes
Put heavy items, like books, in small boxes; light items, like linens and pillows, in bigger ones. (Large boxes packed with heavy items are a common complaint of professional movers. They not only make the job harder but also have a better chance of breaking.)
Put heavier items on the bottoms of boxes, lighter items on top
And if you’re loading the truck yourself, pack heavier boxes first, toward the front of the truck, for balance.
Don’t leave empty spaces in the boxes
Fill in gaps with proper shipping supplies. Movers often won’t move boxes that feel loosely packed or unbalanced.
Avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same box
It will make your packing quicker and your unpacking a lot easier, too.
Label each box with the room it’s destined for and a description of its contents
This will help you and your movers know where every box belongs in your new place. Numbering each box and keeping an inventory list in a small notebook is a good way to keep track of what you’ve packed―and to make sure you still have everything when you unpack.
Tape boxes well
Use a couple of pieces of tape to close the bottom and top seams, then use one of the movers’ techniques―making a couple of wraps all the way around the box’s top and bottom edges, where stress is concentrated.
If you’re moving expensive art, ask your mover about special crating
Never wrap oil paintings in regular paper; it will stick. For pictures framed behind glass, make an X with masking tape across the glass to strengthen it and to hold it together if it shatters. Then wrap the pictures in paper or bubble wrap and put them in a frame box, with a piece of cardboard between each framed piece for protection.
Bundle breakables
As you pack your dishes, put packing paper around each one, then wrap bundles of five or six together with more paper. Pack dishes on their sides, never flat. And use plenty of bunched-up paper as padding above and below. Cups and bowls can be placed inside one another, with paper in between, and wrapped three or four in a bundle. Pack them all in dish-barrel boxes.
Consider other items that will need special treatment
Vansant says his movers treat TVs like any other piece of furniture, wrapping them in quilted furniture pads. He points out, however, that plasma TVs require special wooden crates for shipping if you don’t have the original box and can be ruined if you lay them flat. If you’re packing yourself, double-box your TV, setting the box containing the TV into another box that you’ve padded with packing paper.

FWC Video Still by Cindy Bennett
Largest Florida black bear ever captured is relocated
When bears find easy food sources, like trash cans that are not secured, they tend to return time after time and can get into trouble. This bear was so used to getting into trash that even after the garbage was secured in a shed he returned and pulled the aluminum siding off to get at his free meal. FWC bear trapper Mike Connolly set a trap and caught this 620-pound bruin. The near-record size male Florida black bear was trapped in Lake County and is second in size only to a 624-pounder struck and killed by a vehicle in Naples years ago. Before relocating and releasing this big guy, FWC biologists Mike Orlando and Dave Turner sedated him, collected some hair samples, and gave him an exam, an identification tattoo and ear tag. And WHAT a release it was! Watch the video of the bear running over the gopro camera here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMgIIZrvxjU

Cardboard, also referred to as corrugated cardboard, is a recyclable material that i recycled by small and large scale businesses to save money on waste disposal costs. Cardboard recycling is the reprocessing and reuse of thick sheets or stiff multilayered papers that have been used, discarded or regarded as waste. Cardboard boxes are usually heavy-duty or thick-sheets of paper known for their durability and hardness. Examples of cardboard include packaging boxes, egg cartoons, shoe boxes, and cereal boxes.
Recycling is good for us as it not only saves our environment from deterioration by reducing pollution but also conserves valuable resources and creates jobs. Cardboard recycling is done as a way of keeping the environment clean and green. The steps below provide an explanation of the cardboard recycling system.
Step-by-Step Process of Cardboard Recycling
1. Collection
Collection is the first step of recycling cardboard. Recyclers and businesses collect the waste cardboard at designated cardboard collection points. Majority of the collection points include trash bins, stores, scrap yards, and commercial outlets that generate cardboard waste. After collection, they are then measured and hauled to recycling facilities, mostly paper mills.
At this point, there are certain types of cardboard that are accepted while some are not depending on how they were used or manufactured. For instance, cardboard that are waxed and coated or used for food packaging are not accepted in most cases as they undergo different specialized recycling process.
2. Sorting
Once the corrugated boxes arrive at the recycling facility, they are sorted according to the materials they are made of. In most cases, they are classified into corrugated cardboard and boxboard. Boxboards are the ones that are thin such as those used for cardboard drink containers or cereals boxes while corrugated cardboard boxes are bigger and stiffer commonly used for packaging transport goods. Sorting is important since paper mills manufacture different grades of materials based on the materials being recovered.
3. Shredding and Pulping
After sorting is done, the next step is shredding then pulping follows. Shredding is done to break down the cardboard paper fibers into minute pieces. Once the material is finely shredded into pieces, it is mixed with water and chemicals to breakdown the paper fibers that turn it into a slurry substance.
This process is what is termed as pulping. The pulped material is then blended with new pulp, generally from wood chips that ultimately help the resulting substance to solidify and become firmer.
4. Filtering, conterminal removal and De-Inking
The pulpy material is then taken through a comprehensive filtering process to get rid of all the foreign materials present as well as impurities such as strings, tape or glue. The pulp further goes into a chamber where contaminants like plastics and metals staples are removed through a centrifuge-like process. Plastics float on top while the heavy metal staples fall to the bottom after which they are eliminated.
The next process, de-inking, involves putting the pulp in a floatation device made up of chemicals that takes away any form of dyes or ink via a series of filtering and screening. This step is also called the cleaning process as it cleans the pulp thoroughly to ensure it is ready for the final processing stage.
5. Finishing for reuse
At this stage, the cleaned pulp is blended with new production materials after which, it is put to dry on a flat conveyor belt and heated cylindrical surfaces. As the pulp dries, it is passed through an automated machine that press out excess water and facilitates the formation of a long rolls of solid sheet from the fibers called linerboards and mediums. The linerboards are glued together, layer by layer to make a new piece of cardboard.
In other cases, the medium is used as the corrugated sheet which is taken through two huge metal rolls with teeth to give it the ridges. Linerboards are then glued to the medium as the thin outer covering. Alternatively, the linerboards and mediums are ferried to boxboard manufacturers where the manufacturing process is completed by use of machines that shape and create crease along pattern folds to make the boxes used for packaging or transporting products.

The bronze statue that once stood atop the Pitt County Confederate Soldiers Monument is secured for transport as the sun begins to rise on Monday, June 22. Crews worked throughout the night to disassemble the monument while hampered by equipment issues; the remainder of the monument was removed on Tuesday evening. Work was performed at night to prevent interfering with traffic, court proceedings, and businesses in the Uptown area.
On Monday, June 15, the Pitt County Board of Commissioners voted to relocate the memorial due to threat of vandalism and concern for public safety after property damage occurred during rioting in the Uptown area two weeks earlier. Following the vote to relocate the monument, County Commissioners created a committee to select a new location for the statue, which has not been determined at this time.
The monument was formally dedicated in November 1914; various groups have called for its removal from the courthouse grounds since at least the 1990’s.

The lighthouse was built in 1874 on the south side of the Hereford Inlet. The wood frame lighthouse was designed by Paul J. Pelz, an employee of the Lighthouse Board, and was built in the Eastern Stick style. Following a severe storm in 1913 the lighthouse was moved inland by about 150 feet. The lighthouse was closed in 1964. For eighteen years the lighthouse was vacant and neglected. The City of North Wildwood gained control of the lighthouse in 1982 and restoration work was started. In 1986, a nearby automated light was removed from an iron tower and placed in the lighthouse lantern room. The lighthouse once again became an aid to navigation. The lighthouse is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Paul J. Pelz designed several lighthouses before achieving fame as the designer of the Library of Congress. Hereford Inlet is one of only three Pelz's designed lighthouses that remain, the others are in California- East Brother and Point Fermin Lighthouses.

The site of the Granada Relocation Center is nationally significant as one of ten camps which housed Japanese Americans from 1942 to 1945 following their forced removal by military authorities from the West Coast. The site is significant under Criterion A for its association with U.S. Military History (World War II on the Home Front), for its association with U.S. constitutional law (the protection of civil liberties during wartime), and for its association with Japanese American social history. The camp, with a period of significance of 1942-45, is eligible for listing on the National Register under Criteria Consideration G for its exceptional historical significance in the above areas.
More than ten thousand persons passed through the Granada Relocation Center, which operated from August 1942 to October 1945. At its peak, Amache contained 7,318 Japanese Americans, nearly all of whom were former California residents and two-thirds of whom were United States citizens. As one of only ten such camps in seven mostly western states, the center housed Japanese Americans removed from the West Coast under the authority of Presidential Executive Order 9066. Although not charged with any crimes and without benefit of judicial hearings, Japanese Americans as a group were uprooted from their homes and businesses and taken under armed guard for detention in a system of assembly and relocation centers. At the time the "evacuation" of Japanese Americans was justified on the basis of "military necessity" in the months following Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor and due to the professed inability of the military to gauge the loyalty of individual Japanese Americans. From the relocation centers, evacuees were released over time to pursue jobs or higher education in parts of the nation away from the West Coast. The exclusion from the Pacific Coast states was lifted in early 1945 and a portion of the Japanese American community returned. The relocation had a profound impact on the social life of Japanese Americans in terms of family structure, assimilation into American life, and the geographic distribution of the group as a whole. A number of United States Supreme Court cases dealt with the relocation, which has received extensive legal and academic study.
This wall was originally where the CD towers were; I swapped them for the bookshelf and fiber arts cubes to make room in that corner. This bit of wall is *just barely* wide enough to accomodate both the cubes and the bookshelf. Though it did give me a handy place to hang up my Who poster, which made me pretty happy.
Also, as part of this and "the great lessening of 2007," I decided to clean out at least "one box's worth" of books while rearranging the living room. (Box size non-specific!) I wound up clearing quite a few books out, and actually cleared nearly that whole top shelf, which gave me space to put my audiobooks up there instead of leaving them stuffed in the closet. Though, even they may fall victim to a future "lessening" if they continue not being pulled out of their boxes...
Philosophically, I have gotten over my book hoarding tendencies. I no longer see it as necessary to keep every book I buy or enjoy. I try to keep only the ones I know I will re-read or want to refer to, or which have some sort of specific value to me. And I'm working really hard on getting over my "display the books that show what really good taste in books I have" tendencies. It's harder than you'd think! Still, it's hard giving my books away sometimes, even if I know I am sending them on to make someone else happy.
