Love Jars

Preserving is something I have loved doing ever since I can remember – I have memories as a very small person helping my Mother to make jars of jam ready for the Winter. I could only just see over the kitchen table but loved all the neat rows with their cellophane tops and labels. I made my first chutney alone and unaided when I was about 11 years old - I don't know what my Mother was thinking of - but I was delighted with the result and embarked upon trying out more recipes over the next few years. Preserving has been a lifelong passion and I have enjoyed experimenting with creating my own recipes which is after all, the roots of preserving in the first place. Our ancestors used what they knew with what they had in order to extend the life of food that they farmed or foraged in order to feed their families, and to survive. Nowadays, preserving can be more of an enjoyable hobby but is still an important means of making the most of what we grow or harvest or maybe find as bargains at the market. It makes a significant contribution to the family diet by adding nourishment, variety, and flavour to everyday meals. Nowadays, when we are all trying to make ends meet it is even more important to make sure we make the most of all that we can and prevent waste. about rosie making jam age 5 I now live in rural Rutland with husband Trevor, love good food, chickens and knitting (when I'm not making jam!) With teaching jam and preserve making and Master Classes, talks and demonstrations, writing, running my own Artisan preserves business, LoveJars and being Nanny to four grandsons, life is busy. In addition there are books! 'In a Bit of a Jam' is my personal account of my jam making story which began before I went to school and is supplemented with a series of recipe books on the individual methods of making preserves - and is a work in progress. We also publish a monthly digital magazine 'Simply Preserved' for all of those who love preserving as much as we do, home makers and artisans alike. Free to read in page-turning software it is a ground breaking resource for the preserving world.

I’m Monique Shaw, a career coach, writer, podcaster and brand expert who helps people to rewrite their old stories to create careers, businesses and lives that work. Our stories shape our lives - but we can rewrite them. I’ve rewritten my own story many times to create a life that fits with the way I want to work and live - I founded Re/Write to help you do the same! I started my career in the arts and public sector before pivoting into the corporate world where I spent over a decade shaping marketing, brand, sales and communication strategies. I spent 8 of those years with a Big 4 firm working on rebrand projects, running global campaigns, coaching pitch teams and leading a global sector brand & marketing team. After becoming a parent, I craved a deeper sense of purpose in my work and a different lifestyle. When I turned 40, I took the plunge and rewrote my career story, launching Re/Write and bringing together my love of people, words and self-development with the rigour of my global corporate experience and training. My approach to career change is to work from the inside-out. I don’t focus on job titles, industries or company names, instead I help people to connect with who they are, what they need and how they want to live.

Furnished houses have become an increasingly popular choice for many renters, offering a range of benefits that cater to various lifestyles. Whether you're a professional, a student, or someone who frequently relocates, furnished homes provide a level of convenience and comfort that is hard to beat. Let's delve into the reasons why furnished houses are the best option for modern living. CONVENIENCE AND EASE OF MOVING READY-TO-MOVE-IN One of the primary advantages of Furnished Houses In Lahore [https://iharent.com/] is the immediate readiness for occupancy. You don't have to worry about the time-consuming and often stressful process of buying, transporting, and arranging furniture. Everything you need is already in place, allowing you to move in and start living right away. HASSLE-FREE SETUP Setting up a new home can be daunting, especially if you have to start from scratch. Furnished houses eliminate this hassle by providing all the necessary furniture and appliances. This ease of setup means you can focus on other important aspects of your move, such as adjusting to a new job or school. COST EFFICIENCY NO FURNITURE PURCHASE REQUIRED Furnishing a home can be a significant financial burden. By choosing a furnished house, you save a considerable amount of money that would otherwise be spent on purchasing furniture and household items. This cost-saving is particularly beneficial for short-term renters or those who frequently relocate. REDUCED MOVING COSTS Moving furniture can be expensive, especially if you have to hire professional movers or rent a truck. Furnished homes negate this cost, as you only need to transport your personal belongings. This reduction in moving expenses makes furnished houses a more economical choice. FLEXIBLE LEASE TERMS Many furnished rentals offer flexible lease terms, catering to both short-term and long-term stays. This flexibility is ideal for people with unpredictable schedules, such as corporate professionals, interns, or travelers, allowing them to find accommodation that fits their needs without being locked into lengthy contracts. TIME-SAVING NO TIME SPENT ON FURNITURE SHOPPING Finding the right furniture can be a time-consuming process, involving numerous trips to stores and hours spent online searching for the perfect pieces. Furnished houses save you this time by providing a fully equipped living space, so you can spend your time on more enjoyable or productive activities. QUICK AND EASY SETUP The immediate availability of a furnished home means you can set up your new living space in no time. There's no need to wait for furniture deliveries or spend weekends assembling flat-pack furniture. You can simply move in, unpack your clothes and personal items, and start enjoying your new home. PROFESSIONAL AND STYLISH INTERIORS EXPERTLY DECORATED SPACES Furnished houses are often professionally decorated, ensuring that the interior design is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This professional touch can make your living environment more comfortable and enjoyable, providing a home that feels well put together and inviting. CONSISTENT STYLE AND QUALITY With a furnished home, you can expect a consistent style throughout the house, with furniture and decor that complement each other. This consistency creates a harmonious living space that is both attractive and comfortable. Additionally, furnished rentals often feature higher quality furniture than what you might purchase on a budget, enhancing your living experience. IDEAL FOR VARIOUS LIFESTYLES PERFECT FOR PROFESSIONALS For corporate professionals or those relocating for work, furnished houses offer a hassle-free solution. The ability to move into a fully equipped home means you can focus on your job without the distraction of setting up a new household. This ease of transition is particularly beneficial for busy professionals who need to hit the ground running in their new location. STUDENT-FRIENDLY OPTIONS International students or those studying far from home can greatly benefit from furnished rentals. These homes provide all the essentials, making it easier for students to settle in quickly and focus on their studies. The availability of study desks, comfortable living areas, and essential appliances creates a conducive environment for academic success. SUITABLE FOR FREQUENT MOVERS For individuals who move frequently, such as military personnel, consultants, or digital nomads, furnished houses offer unmatched convenience. The ability to relocate without the burden of moving furniture simplifies the process, allowing for a smoother and less stressful transition between homes. MINIMAL MAINTENANCE AND RESPONSIBILITIES LANDLORD TAKES CARE OF REPAIRS In a furnished rental, the landlord typically takes responsibility for maintaining the furniture and appliances provided. This arrangement means that if anything breaks or needs repair, it's not your financial or logistical burden to bear. This reduced responsibility can be a significant relief, especially for busy individuals. LESS WEAR AND TEAR Furnished homes often experience less wear and tear on personal belongings since the provided furniture is designed for durability. Additionally, tenants are less likely to use their own furniture, reducing the chances of damage during moves. This preservation of personal items can be a considerable advantage over time. ENHANCED SECURITY AND AMENITIES SECURE BUILDINGS Furnished rentals are frequently located in secure buildings with additional safety features such as security cameras, gated entries, and on-site security personnel. This enhanced security provides peace of mind for tenants, knowing that their home and belongings are well-protected. ACCESS TO AMENITIES Many Furnished Houses In Paragon City [https://iharent.com/places/house-no-638-woods-block-5-marla-3-beds-paragon-city-lahore/] rentals come with access to shared amenities like gyms, swimming pools, and communal lounges. These facilities can enhance your living experience, providing opportunities for recreation, fitness, and socializing without the need to leave your building. ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS REDUCED WASTE Choosing a furnished home can be an environmentally friendly decision. By utilizing the existing furniture and appliances, you reduce the demand for new products, which in turn decreases waste and conserves resources. This sustainable living choice can have a positive impact on the environment. LOWER CARBON FOOTPRINT The process of manufacturing, transporting, and disposing of furniture contributes to carbon emissions. By living in a furnished home, you reduce the need for these activities, thereby lowering your overall carbon footprint. This eco-conscious decision supports a more sustainable lifestyle. FLEXIBILITY IN PERSONALIZATION ADDING PERSONAL TOUCHES While furnished homes come equipped with essential items, they still offer the flexibility to personalize the space. You can add your own decorative touches, such as artwork, cushions, and plants, to make the home feel uniquely yours without the need for permanent changes. TEMPORARY YET CUSTOMIZABLE Furnished homes provide a great balance between temporary living and personalization. You can enjoy the convenience of a fully equipped home while still being able to customize the decor to your taste. This flexibility is particularly appealing for those who value a personalized living environment without the long-term commitment. CONCLUSION Furnished houses offer a range of benefits that make them an excellent choice for many renters. From the convenience of a ready-to-move-in home to the cost savings and reduced maintenance responsibilities, furnished rentals simplify the process of finding and settling into a new place. Whether you're a professional, a student, or someone who moves frequently, furnished homes provide a comfortable, stylish, and hassle-free living solution. Consider the advantages of furnished living for your next move and experience the ease and comfort it brings.

DLP India Edutech Private Limited

dlp india edutech private limited

It all started in January 2011 with the noble thought of making high-quality and world-class education accessible to students, regardless of their geographical location and background. We are here talking about DLP India- one of the leading and well-known educational service provider of the country. It attracts students in large numbers from all over the world- the ones who are interested in pursuing distance education courses or skill development courses. In order to give a meaning to his thoughts and turn his ideas into a reality, Perminder Singh Malik came up with a creative idea of launching DLP India. The idea was to offer a range of distance learning and skill development courses to students interested in pursuing online education by affiliating itself with highly reputed and well-known universities- both in India as well as abroad. DLP India offers a wide variety of courses, ranging from certificate courses to doctorate degrees, in distance learning mode via its 2 very famous portals- distancelearning.edu.in and rapidskillz.com. They offer courses in almost every field of education like Banking, Management, Human Resource, Finance, Design, Marketing, Media, Medical, Life Skills, Soft Skills, Writing, Project Management and a lot more. What has made the services offered by DLP India popular is their accessibility through distance mode. While its services are majorly focused on Information and Career Counseling, they help professionals acquire skills for growth and sustainace. The students can easily compare between various universities and courses options available on this platform and make a choice depending on their budget. Furthermore, there is a provision of after sales services as well to make it easier for students to study online and operate University LMS and Portal. Having revolutionized the concept of distance education and online learning in the education sector of India, DLP India has successfully got itself listed on innovationprofiles of National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) due to its innovative profile in the field of education. Also, it has been a dynamic and active member of Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) since last 6 years. Experienced Educationist and Dynamic Entrepreneur Based out of Delhi, Perminder Singh Malik could give wings to his dreams, primarily, due to his strong understanding of consumer behavior in the digital space of education and skill development.

With over 20 years of experience in the industry, he has been awarded several reputed industry certifications like iCEO certification and Green Belt Six Sigma Certification. He has also been shortlisted as one of the top 30 entrepreneurs (out of 500 entrepreneurs) for ‘Accelerating Entrepreneurs Program 2015’ hosted by Ernst & Young. “It has certainly not been an easy journey coming this far. To be able to offer top-notch services in the field of education requires a lot of hard work, commitment and dedication,” quotes Mr. Singh confidently. Ramneet Kaur, Co-Founder DLP India stated, “What helps us distinguish from others in the market is our collaboration with top-ranked universities in the world including Marconi International University, Amity University, UPES Dehradun, UNICAF University, ICFAI University and MIT School of Distance Education. We are unique because we are not a single university offering distance learning courses but a network of universities offering students abundant options to pursue the course of their own choice and that too, from the university they wish to.” DLP’s Expanding Footprints Besides offering various academic and non-academic learning courses, there is a lot more to the work of DLP India. Having marked a niche in the education industry of India, DLP India has further diversified itself into offering various other services complementing the education domain.

Perminder Singh and his team have indeed managed it amazingly well.

New School Of The Anthropocene

new school of the anthropocene

London

The New School of the Anthropocene is a radical and affordable experiment in interdisciplinary higher education for the digital era in collaborative association with October Gallery in London. We are an ensemble of experienced academics from the higher educational world who, in the company of diverse artists and practitioners, wish to restore the values of intellectual adventure, free exchange and creative risk that formerly characterised an arts education in the UK and beyond.    The New School is registered with Companies House as a Community Interest Company and is run cooperatively. We think of ourselves as a purpose or condition, rather than an institution, open to collaboration and gathering. Our curriculum is dedicated to addressing ecological recovery and social renewal through the arts. Learning styles flex to accommodate the domestic and employment responsibilities of our students. The age-range within this heterogenous community extends from 18 to 75 and qualification-levels range from GCSE to PhD. We regard our participants as researchers from the start and they co-design their work with an emphasis on critical intervention fused with creative process. The collaborative work of the body – learning, for example, about food resilience at Calthorpe Community Garden and rainforest restoration in Puerto Rico - is assigned equal prominence to more conventional university-level activities such as textual analysis, philosophical discussion and filmmaking.    We opened our doors to a first yearly cohort of 26 students in September 2022. They have joined us for 28 weekly Anthropocene Seminars led by the likes of Marina Warner, Robert Macfarlane, Gargi Bhattacharyya, Adam Broomberg, Ann Pettifor, Assemble Studio, Michael Mansfield, Robin Kirkpatrick, Esther Teichmann, Anthony Sattin, Chris Petit and Mark Nelson (Biosphere 2), whose work covers the entire range of subjects falling within the framework of the Environmental Humanities. These vigorously participatory sessions are prefaced by a movement class and are run in-person and streamed on-line to enable our planetarians to join us from Tajikistan, Egypt, US, Niger, Ireland, Scotland and France. Our teachers are gathered within an ever-extending Ensemble, not an exclusive faculty, and are paid at UCU-recommended rates for their contributions.  All NSotA students also work on a research project that is individually supervised and benefits from five meetings a year with at least two Ensemble members. This contributes towards a Diploma in Environmental Humanities, rather than a degree: a means of countering an anxious culture of accreditation, which we differentiate from the principle of recognition. Our students instead carry forward a supervised portfolio of their critical and creative work accomplished over the year as testament to their development.  While seeking to maintain a genuinely inter-generational student body, our recruitment continues to prioritise applicants from those with no prior experience of university. Our pay-what-you-can-afford scheme means that our students typically pay between 0.5% and 5% of the average cost of a UK postgraduate degree and enjoy double the number of contact teaching hours. This means that no one with the aptitude and desire to participate need be excluded. We have also set aside free places for forced migrants fleeing conflict across the world, which are awarded in association with Revoke and Birkbeck College’s Compass Project.   The New School is to be simultaneously regarded as an applied research project that explores how an agile, self-organising model for higher education might be effectively constituted. Its processes have been fully archived with the intention of creating an open-source toolkit for educators who might seek to emulate this prototype and co-establish a sisterhood of corresponding initiatives. We are a contributing partner of the Academia Biospherica Alliance, which from 2024 will offer on-site educational programmes under the auspices of October Gallery’s parent organisation, the Institute of Ecotechnics, across the five main earth biomes of mountains, oceans, forests, desert grasslands and cities in locations such as Puerto Rico, Brazil, Argentina, Iraq, Italy, Catalonia and Egypt.    This reflects our expressly collaborative ethos, as manifested further in our participation within the Ecoversities Alliance and Faculty for a Future, alongside established associations with Embassy Cultural House (London, Ontario), the London Review of Books and Birkbeck College Library, where our students enjoy borrowing rights, and prospective academic partnerships with the Central European University and Global Centre for Advanced Studies. We are also in the process of gaining recognition as a UNESCO Futures Literacy Laboratory. Our public launch in November 2021 was marked by a symposium on the future of the university in relation to biopolitical emergency, timed to coincide with COP26. It features recorded dialogues with leading thinkers available to view on our website: www.nsota.org [http://www.nsota.org].    In February 2023 the New School hosted a seminar jointly with Birkbeck’s Institute for Social Research to announce the relaunch of the Stories in Transit project founded by Marina Warner with the intention of initiating a collective research project for NSotA students. This will form a central component of a continuing second year active engagement with the present cohort following the end of the academic year in June, which is currently under collective discussion.    From September 2023 our first-year cohort size will be increased to 40 students drawn from the UK and around the world. The programme will be augmented by small-group creativity classes as a means of building a collaborative environment and preparing scholars for the intensity of their project work. NSotA's debut cohort established an additional self-organised reading group, meeting on-line on Sunday afternoons with the purpose of extending discussions broached in previous Anthropocene Seminars. For the next academic year this will be formally incorporated into the curriculum. Long-term plans include the founding of a research agency with D-Fuse intending to explore innovative multi-modal representations of biocidal emergency in civic spaces.   We are keenly aware that today’s university system is outmoded, sclerotic and wasteful; yoked to punishing systems of debt finance and managerial bureaucracy; and falling short in its responsibility to nurture future generations as confident participants within the complex universe in which we are all embedded. In proposing an affordable interdisciplinary education, the New School of the Anthropocene seeks to rejuvenate the core values of an adventurous education that are under sustained threat across the world. In so doing, it represents a genuine alternative for those who consider experimentation across the critical-creative seam to be the prerequisite to personal resilience and cultural renewal.
