Untold – The Inside Story by its Founder in a Three-Part Tell-All Expose

Adam Zuckerman, founder of Progenex – an international sports nutrition company, emerges from the shadows after 10-years to tell the true accounts of great invention, criminal fraud, and what he intends to do about.

In 2009, Adam Zuckerman, an American finance entrepreneur partnered with Dr. Scott Connelly, famed inventor of MET-Rx, an American brand of nutritional supplements Connelly sold to Rexall Sundown for $108 million in 2000, currently owned by NBTY.

After 9-years of retirement, Connelly wanted back in the game and launched Progenex Dairy Bioactives, Inc., a bio-nutritional/medical start-up, consisting of a patented and proprietary product Connelly named “Recovery.”

Recovery, as its name implies, was a consumable whey-protein hydrolysate Connelly co-developed with largest dairy producer in Australia, Murray Goulburn Co-Operative Co. Limited (MGC), acquired in 2017 by Saputo (TSX:SAP) for $1.2B. MGC and Connelly co-created a unique substance called Whey Growth Factor Extract (WGFE), which was discovered by tracking RNA expression signatures to reveal which genes were involved with muscle growth, metabolism, and inflammatory response. The product was noticeably effective and it was pricey because it was costly to make. As part of Connelly’s agreement to co-develop WGFE, MGC granted Connelly an exclusive license to market WGFE in the United States, provided he could meet minimum production thresholds for raw materials. Connelly needed a business partner and capital.

Prior to founding Progenex Dairy Bioactives, Inc. with Zuckerman, Dr. Connelly began his career as an anesthesiologist.

Dr. Connelly worked in the hospitals burn unit, which is where he discovered that healing from wasting or damage to human tissue was to occur from the inside out not topically. Simply, while the medical and pharmaceutical world raced to create a topical solution for tissue regeneration, Connelly created a digestible consumable that would not only prove to regenerate tissue in burn victims and slow wasting, but in anyone who needed fast repair and recovery. These findings led to the creation of Progenex “Recovery” – the company’s marquis product, but not before Connelly made his bones a decade earlier, where many sports-fitness enthusiasts consider Scott Connelly the Godfather of industry.

MET-Rx is best known for pioneering a new category of bodybuilding supplements known as meal replacement powders or MRPs.

It was also involved in the androstenedione controversy in the late 1990s. As noted above, the original MET-Rx product was intended to help prevent critically ill patients from losing muscle mass. Connelly’s product was marketed in cooperation with Bill Phillips and the two began marketing to the bodybuilding and athletic communities, launching sales from the low hundreds of thousands to over $100 million annually.

Connelly sold all interest in the company to Rexall Sundown for $108 million in 2000. MET-Rx is currently owned by NBTY

Connelly’s intended application for MET-Rx was the medical sector, as with Progenex to follow, where MET-Rx fast became the gold standard for the bodybuilding community worldwide for obvious reasons in the 80’s – lifting weights is a process of repeatedly tearing tissue and requiring fast repair. And Connelly wasn’t shy about being the poster boy for his brand, nor did he pose in a lab coat. Quite the contrary, where beyond his exhaustive credentials as a protein science pioneer and MD, who revolutionized an industry, Connelly was ripped and often posed with dumbbells in his hands and a tank top for advertisements and interviews.

Enter CrossFit. Progenex gains significant momentum as the title sponsor for CrossFit and becomes a national brand.

Greg Glassman, founder of CrossFit, met with Zuckerman and Connelly in 2011 to strike a deal with Progenex as title sponsor for the CrossFit Games. CrossFit was just becoming a household name, which attracted Reebok in 2014, squeezing Progenex out.

CrossFit, a branded fitness regimen that involves constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity. The method was developed by Greg Glassman, who founded CrossFit with Lauren Jenai
in 2000, with CrossFit its registered trademark. The company forms what has been described as the biggest fitness chain in the world, with around 12,000 affiliated gyms in over 150 countries as of 2022,
under half of which are located in the United States.

CrossFit, meaning cross-discipline fitness, was conceived as a company in 1996 as Cross-Fit. Greg Glassman and Lauren Jenai incorporated CrossFit, Inc. in 2000. They opened a gym in Santa Cruz, California in 2001 and posted their workouts on the Internet for their clients, and these workouts were then quickly adopted by individuals in the police, military, firefighting services. The first affiliated gym (known as ‘box’) to form was CrossFit North in Seattle, Washington when Glassman’s internet postings were used by those who wanted to officially incorporate his workouts into their training regimen in 2002.

Glassman obtained complete control over the company in 2012 after a divorce with Jenai, who tried to sell her share in the company to an outside party after the divorce settlement, but Glassman bought it with a $16 million loan from Summit Partners. In June 27, 2020, CrossFit sold to Eric Roza, a tech entrepreneur who made his name and fortune with a data company he sold to Oracle for $1.2 billion in 2014. Roza, 53, according to one source, paid $200 million buying CrossFit Inc.

Connelly and Zuckerman go to war over Progenex before the ink even dries.

In May of 2010, Zuckerman brought suit against Connelly for breach of contract. Both said to have egos as large as the Grand Canyon, Zuckerman emerged victorious in 2013 after a three-year legal blood bath, winning all of Connelly’s shares for $1 dollar. But this is merely where the story begins. Progenex had become an industry leader and was about to go international, but Zuckerman had other issues looming.

Zuckerman was released from prison in late 2013 after beating trumped-up charges by the government, which led to a decade of secretive activities that to this day remain sealed by the Feds. It is believed that his 7-year relationship with the government prior to founding Progenex, not only assured Zuckerman’s early release but would make his government enemies into allies and Zuckerman forever untouchable.

After just 14-months, on October 14, 2013, Zuckerman was released from Terminal Island Federal Correctional Institution, expecting to retake control of the Progenex empire he had won from Connelly. But his chief underling, Ryan Page, who would be later sued by CrossFit for trademark infringement, along with Steve Shamion, a trusted investor Zuckerman appointed as temporary Manager to protect his assets had other plans. Shamion and Page saw dollar signs, and instead elected to conspire to steal Progenex from Zuckerman and his ex-wife, Patricia Robinson, who Zuckerman gave full control of Progenex through its managing entity, Amidah LLC, and 40 investors. (See related court transcripts).

Zuckerman met Page four years prior to founding Progenex, rescuing him from a company he ran into the ground in Las Vegas with Luke Adams, who currently serves as Progenex’ dirty CFO.

Zuckerman refers jokingly to Page as the M&M pirate – a tongue-in- cheek descriptor of Page, who would eat an entire large bag of peanut M&M’s in every meeting, and hides his identity as Progenex’ puppet master. Page is hidden from sight by design, and not merely to avoid a head on collision with the legal freight trains coming for him.

Page is anything but a poster boy for a global sports-nutrition brand that caters to an elite athletic market. He not only lacks expertise in the field or requisite credentials to develop these products, but bears no physical resemblance to the exclusive athletes the products cater to. Page is a fraud in every way, and continues to thwart authorities and the courts, after being found culpable for defrauding over 40 investors, pilfering Progenex corporate assets, and failing to turn over the company to investors and Patricia Robinson. Page, along with his entire family, Luke Adam’s, and Paul Gomez, Zuckerman’s ex brother-in-law, are all alleged to be co-conspirators, helping Page to scatter Progenex assets around the world in a hide and seek game of catch me if you can.

Page not only illegally controls Progenex, but has his hands in every pot, using sub-entities he owns and controls as the company’s vendors. From manufacturing to shipping and co-packing, Page created a tangled web used to fleece the company and its investors in every way, including changing the long-established website address from www.progenexusa.com to www.progenexfit.com, to the avoid seizure of Progenex assets ordered by the courts.

Paul Gomez, who started as a warehouse boy for Billabong, a global surf brand, under then CEO Bob Hurley, founder of Hurley International, sold to Nike, apparently contributed nothing more than t-shirts to the supplement maker, and serves as a pin up patsy for Page. Zuckerman describes Gomez as an “illiterate parasite that betrayed his entire family,” along with wife Stephanie, Patricia Robinson’s sister. Robinson remains to this day the rightful heir to the Progenex throne, where Zuckerman put the controlling entity, Amidah LLC in her name for safekeeping prior to serving his prison term.

Page viciously targeted Robinson after Zuckerman let the legal wolves loose on Page, blackmailing her to backdate documents that would disavow her control and rights to Progenex. When Robinson refused, Page illegally ceased paying her distributions from the company, along with the rest of the Progenex investors. Not a single investor has received a dollar in profit or return on their investment to date, while Page lines his pockets and continues to deceive and defraud Progenex customers.

To say that Zuckerman has been lurking in the shadows all this time related exclusively to the Progenex saga would be inaccurate. Zuckerman has been anything but inactive.

Zuckerman knew he needed to be patient. After Zuckerman’s release in 2013 as noted above, Page and Shamion, along with Dwight Beckstrand, Progenex’ now disgraced former corporate counsel, who faced domestic violence charges, instead of returning Progenex to Zuckerman as agreed, conspired to destabilize and oust Zuckerman.

Page began plucking off, one by one, Zuckerman’s internal founding team at Progenex while he was serving time. In a Lord of The Flies-esque corporate kill off, Aaron Thomas, who raised most of the early startup capital for Progenex from over 40 close investors and family, was the first to go. Then came Cameron Verdi, a close friend Zuckerman salvaged from the loan modification business, who would later attempt his own coup by high jacking Amidah from Zuckerman’s ex-wife Patricia Robinson with no legal authority.

Cameron Verdi, who imposters as a founder was nothing more than a mid-level employee who Zuckerman appointed as a Wooden Indian to manage Amidah LLC under his direction.

Zuckerman is well known for making outrageous public commentary without restraint. When asked, Zuckerman explains that he simply says out loud what everyone else thinks. Zuckerman describes Verdi as a “nobody opportunist, dumber than his dog,” which is a bold statement considering Zuckerman’s love of animals.

Per Zuckerman and according to filed corporate documents, Verdi lacks any legal authority as a decision maker for Amidah LLC, the controlling entity and largest shareholder of Progenex. Verdi simply vexatiously interfered and bungled efforts to retake control of Progenex from Page. Patricia Robinson, Zuckerman’s ex-wife is the managing member of Amidah, owning 90%, and more than 45% of Progenex in the aggregate. Robinson remains in legal control of Amidah and therefore Progenex.

Any significant actions on behalf of Amidah must be authorized by Robinson, including but not limited to, bringing and settling litigation. But Verdi, per Zuckerman is “an unscrupulous troglodyte, who took advantage of Robinson’s lack of sophistication and turned on his master, Zuckerman.” And worse, Thomas Frost, the San Diego lawyer retained by Zuckerman to take the case, allowed it, and refused to talk to his actual client, Patricia Robinson.

Not only did Frost fail miserably in court using Zuckerman’s airtight roadmap and evidentiary file of over 2000 organized documents, but allowed Verdi to subvert Robinson, who is his true client, causing a four-
year stall to retake Progenex from Page. Zuckerman indicates that Frost should have been sued for malpractice and disbarred. And so should Judge Margret Nagle, according to Zuckerman, who had been stymied for 4 years in finalizing her ruling for these very reasons. Zuckerman remains emphatic that Judge Nagle failed to do her job. According to court transcripts and per Zuckerman, Judge Nagle was as well dumfounded related to how Frost was able to proceed without Robinson’s authority. In fact, Judge Nagle asked that Zuckerman testify to these facts as part of a recorded testinomy soon to be published.

Progenex is no longer the patented formula Dr. Connelly invented. Page uses Glanbia Nutritional’s patented whey-hydrolysate, Thermax 690, in both More Muscle and Recovery, the company’s marquis products.

The Connelly/Zuckerman war suffered many casualties, among them MGC and with it WGFE – the secret sauce that made Recovery and More Muscle unique. MGC severed ties with Connelly after Zuckerman won the company back. The formula is not sold by anyone in the US currently, but Zuckerman plans to change that. Connelly and MGC had published significant science behind WGFE’s efficacy, while Page buried independent lab reports that prove Progenex products lack of efficacy, and are nothing more than overpriced cheap whey, along with label fraud claims. Zuckerman claims Progenex is a fraud, and anyone can buy Thermax 690 from Glanbia or competitive alternatives that are superior hydrolysates, and Zuckerman intends to make sure they do.

Zuckerman doesn’t want Progenex, just its customers. Making deals with Progenex competitors, he plans to introduce WGFE 2.0 to millions of Progenex customers who will fast jump ship as the truth comes out.

Armed again with deep pockets and a dream team of high-powered lawyers, Zuckerman has no intention of picking up where Progenex and the lawyers failed. Zuckerman has other plans, and intends to disclose the brands fraud, along with Page, and migrate millions of customers to a recognized industry leader and announce a its full suite of WGFE 2.0 alterative product for less. (Soon to announced)

Zuckerman had his plan, and knew timing was key. Waiting patiently for the statute of limitations to run out for the government, who had been hunting his war chest for a decade, Zuckerman has quietly amassed a new army while reclaiming his resources to strike.

In a 3-part live streaming interview, conducted by high-level CrossFit influencers, and redirected back to www.progenexuntold.com, Zuckerman will tell the entire story from start to finish to what is expected to be a significant audience. But it doesn’t end there.

Zuckerman wants the customers to know the truth about Progenex and Page, and understand that they are being ripped-off, lied to, and are lining the pockets of a thief, Page – who not only betrayed the market, but has harmed innocent people and their families. Zuckerman believes that customers will be outraged and abandon the brand for new options – a safe landing where Zuckerman holds equity and can repay investors. Zuckerman’s team of internet mercenaries are prepped to get the word out via Twitter, Instagram, email, Google, and even to cell phones of customers directly.

Premium karaoke club rooms Gangnam: Located in Mapo-gu, Club Vurt is the perfect choice for those who prefer a more subdued and nuanced party atmosphere.

Warm up your voice before you get up to sing: While others are singing, hum quietly along with the songs. Humming is a great vocal warm up and you’ll be surprised at the difference singing on warmed up vocal chords.

If you’re looking to paint the town red in Seoul, we’ve got you covered! Here’s a list of the eight best clubs in Seoul to party at so you can fully experience the excitement of Seoul once the sun sets and the neon lights come on! Before you go out partying, there are a few things you need to take note of. Before choosing a club to party at, you should know that it’s a common rule that ALL foreign visitors need to show their passports to be allowed entry. This is for age verification purposes mostly. That being said, you may also come across clubs that are exclusive to locals. Don’t worry though, most clubs are open to foreigners. Discover extra details at https://alexandclark85.creatorlink.net/.

Use a little mic technique: A beginner is usually scared and he/she unconsciously keeps the microphone a foot or two away from the mouth which makes the voice sound bleak. A more experienced singer keeps the mic close to their mouth, in order to get a nice tone. A pro who has mastered mic technique, however, keeps the mic close to their mouth until they sing louder (often higher) notes. At that point they pull the mic away by a few inches, to compensate for the sudden increase in volume, then bring it back to their mouth when the louder singing is over. This can be perfected at home with a hairbrush.

Make sure you sound the best you can. Jesse Rauch, the commissioner of Washington, D.C.’s, District Karaoke, wants to stress that you don’t have to have a good voice to be good at karaoke. “What matters is how much of you you’re able to add to it—how much fun, or energy, or drama, can you infuse into your performance?” However, if your voice is cracking, you probably won’t be able to focus on a dramatic performance. Get a sense of what your vocal range is. Hell, sing some scales in the shower and see how high and low you can go. Just don’t attempt Prince’s “Kiss” if you’re a baritone.

Bill Trikos’s full achievements index of Australian Richmond Tigers football club in grand finals: The Tigers sealed their 11th flag – and first since 1980 – with a run of seven unanswered goals from early in the second quarter that had the Crows staggering on the ropes just 10 minutes into the third term. Richmond led by 28 points at that stage, having kept the Crows goalless for a quarter and a half. And when Taylor Walker finally broke Adelaide’s goal drought with a 40m set shot midway through the third term, the Tigers swiftly killed off any hopes of a Crows comeback, rattling on the next four goals to take an unassailable 45-point lead early in the final term that had even the most pessimistic Richmond fans daring to believe.

2017 Grand Finals highlight : The Crows had the first two scoring shots of the second term – behinds to Betts and Tom Lynch – but it was the Tigers’ term from there. With their tackling and chasing rising to 11 on the pressure-meter, Richmond piled on four unanswered goals, the first at the four-minute mark, when Riewoldt finally broke his duck with a 40m snap that was confirmed after a video review. Jacob Townsend put the Tigers within two points midway through the term when he converted from 45m after a questionable holding free kick was paid against Jake Lever. Graham and Martin then goaled in quick succession late in the quarter – Graham after a clever snap on the run, Martin following a strong mark in front of Luke Brown – to send the Tigers into half-time with a nine-point lead.

Full achievements index of Richmond Tigers football club from Bill Trikos: It now has two flags in three seasons. The ‘Dimma Dynasty’ started on a sunny Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It was just as invigorating and exciting two years on, as Damien Hardwick’s remarkable group brushed aside Grand Final rookies Greater Western Sydney on its way to an emphatic 89-point win. The Tigers tackled, harassed and drove forward with the relentlessness they have become renowned for throughout their three years of dominance, inspired by an unstoppable mix of genius coaching, tremendous individual talent and astonishing team cohesion.

Each Tiger goal – all five of them, kicked one after the other – was met with exceedingly raucous cheers, as the Punt Road end celebrated what was quickly becoming inevitable. The Giants went some way to stemming the bleeding by the break. However, in reality, they quite simply couldn’t lay a glove on the Tigers. They were held goalless for the entirety of the second quarter, as a disaster unfolded in front of them. Trent Cotchin and Dustin Martin chat to Channel 7 following the Grand Final win over GWS.

Richmond has claimed back-to-back premierships, and made it three of the last four flags, after coming from behind to beat Geelong by 31 points in the historic first ever Toyota AFL Grand Final at the Gabba. It etched the Tiger dynasty into football history as one of the most dominant sides of the his century.

The under lights Gabba clash had it all: injury carnage, a remarkable recovery, a comeback, two stretchers, pitch invaders, pyrotechnics and an entertainment package that will make the debate for day Grand Finals a harder sell in 2021. But mainly it again illustrated the brilliance of Martin and the Tigers, who came from 15 points down at half-time to secure their 13th flag and first consecutive flag since their 1973-4 triumphs. It was their third premiership under coach Damien Hardwick and skipper Trent Cotchin.

Geelong took that momentum into the second term, dominating Richmond in the pressure stakes and using their strength at the contest to push aside the Tigers. The Tigers, so renowned for their tenacious attack, were being beaten at their own game. Ash Barty presents Trent Cotchin and Damien Hardwick with the 2020 premiership cup. The Cats kicked three goals to one in the quarter but should have been further ahead after some straightforward misses. They are sprayed kicks which will linger in the minds of the Cats well beyond the final siren.

How Plantations International’s Sustainable Agriculture is Supporting Local Communities: We strive for an injury-free workplace through a strong health and safety program supported by high employee engagement. We train our employees to conduct their activities in a safe and environmentally responsible manner. We expect our suppliers to adhere to the applicable environmental laws of the countries, regions and cities in which they operate. We encourage our suppliers to surpass baseline requirements where possible to reduce the environmental impact of their operations.

As food prices are closely linked to inflationary trends, owners of agricultural assets and those exposed to farming businesses possess a hedge against inflation. This is one key diversification benefit of the asset class. Agriculture has been shown to have low correlation with many other asset classes such as equities and corporate debt, which dominate the investment market. This means that including agricultural in a portfolio can provide significant diversification benefits, resulting in an increase in portfolio return or reducing overall portfolio risk. Population driven food demand remains the core base of demand for agricultural commodities. The demand for food is relatively inelastic to income, making demand for agricultural commodities less subject to an economic slowdown.

Despite multiple definitions for food security there are common themes or indicators that tend to appear and underline its characterization. These include food affordability, food availability and accessibility, food quality and safety, and existing natural resources. The FAO and The Economist both measure food security on a country based on these indicators at varying degrees. Food security ought to be a priority for all countries, whether developing or developed. Although low levels of food security are commonly associated with poverty stricken countries they are also found in affluent developed countries as well. Food security rankings despite providing a decent gauge of performance are not without limitations. For example, some of wealthiest countries logically fare well in overall rankings as they have the capability and infrastructure to provide accessible, healthy food to their populations. Yet these high rankings dangerously mask their poor natural resources and resilience rank which measures food import dependency to a small degree. This raises the question, how can a country be food secure when they can be highly dependent on others for their food supply?

With offices, plantations, and representatives across Asia, Europe, and Africa, Plantations International is a multinational plantation and farm management company that specializes in providing sustainable agricultural and forestry or “agroforestry” management services for its clients. Plantations International has clients ranging from private individuals to large landholders and corporate investors. We put teamwork, innovation, and our passion for creating “Ethical & Sustainable Capital” at the heart of everything we do.

Water scarcity is another impending crisis. 28% of agriculture lies in water stressed regions. It takes roughly 1,500 litres of water to produce a kilogram of wheat, and about 16,000 litres to produce a kilogram of beef. In 2050, the world will need twice as much water. As the world population soars, arable land per person proportionally shrinks. The stresses on food production and food prices will inevitably keep rising. Arable land loss can be combated by improving productivity per acre and taking measures against climate change and erratic weather conditions. Food wastage’s carbon footprint is estimated at 3.3 billion tonnes of CO2. Developing countries suffer more food losses during agricultural production, while in middle- and high-income regions, food waste at the retail and consumer level tends to be higher.

Scientists have spent decades figuring out what is causing global warming. They’ve looked at the natural cycles and events that are known to influence climate. But the amount and pattern of warming that’s been measured can’t be explained by these factors alone. The only way to explain the pattern is to include the effect of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by humans. To bring all this information together, the United Nations formed a group of scientists called the International Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC. The IPCC meets every few years to review the latest scientific findings and write a report summarizing all that is known about global warming. Each report represents a consensus, or agreement, among hundreds of leading scientists. Plantations International calls the result global warming, but it is causing a set of changes to the Earth’s climate, or long-term weather patterns, that varies from place to place. As the Earth spins each day, the new heat swirls with it, picking up moisture over the oceans, rising here, settling there. It’s changing the rhythms of climate that all living things have come to rely upon.

Excellent karaoke playing rooms Gangnam South Korea: On the flip side, you’ll be happy to know that most clubs in Seoul open till early morning. You could literally party till the sun comes up! If you can’t be bothered to properly plan your night out, just join a pub crawl. Some hostels actually organise these events, so feel free to join in. The more the merrier, right? Finally, if you’re having trouble finding any particular place in Seoul, consider switching to NAVER or Kakao Maps. By and large, these work better than Google Maps in Korea.

Use a little mic technique: A beginner is usually scared and he/she unconsciously keeps the microphone a foot or two away from the mouth which makes the voice sound bleak. A more experienced singer keeps the mic close to their mouth, in order to get a nice tone. A pro who has mastered mic technique, however, keeps the mic close to their mouth until they sing louder (often higher) notes. At that point they pull the mic away by a few inches, to compensate for the sudden increase in volume, then bring it back to their mouth when the louder singing is over. This can be perfected at home with a hairbrush.

Boombar is another one of those clubs in Seoul that is more suited for classy partygoers. The interior features elegant chandeliers and velvet couches, giving off a chic, sexy vibe even as the DJs play heart-pumping hip hop and R&B sets in the background. As much as Boombar is a great place to party like there’s no tomorrow, the clean atmosphere also makes it a good place to simply chill with friends over a couple of drinks and cocktails.

Practice karaoke at home: If you have a karaoke machine, great. Use it! Otherwise, you can usually find your karaoke track and lyrics online. Sing while having bath, cleaning and driving, it will benefit you more than you realise, and make sure you not only understand the lyrics of the song, but have memorised them. Record yourself singing and listen back but don’t freak out the first time; it’s always weird to hear yourself singing when you first start. Use a full-length mirror or a smartphone to video, then watch yourself. Practice and improve your style; get comfortable with performing.

There’s a fine line between fun experimentation and disaster when it comes to karaoke. That’s where greatness lives. A few shots of sake can either give you the courage to nail “Guns and Ships” from Hamilton to everyone’s shock, or make you that guy desperately stumbling through “Paradise ty the Dashboard Light.” Which is why I’ve found that, no matter what else you choose to sing, it’s good to have a song or two you know you can nail. Spend a little time prepping, and you’ll never panic over a karaoke invitation again.

Yahya Raje Leicester high quality real estate advices right now? Here are a couple real estate news: Before you get too excited, or worried that time is running out, it might actually be in your favor to slow play this one. Per Zillow, the best time to buy a home may be in late summer, including the months of August and September. Basically, you’ve got the slow, cold months at the start of the year where there isn’t much inventory, followed by the strong spring housing market where everyone and their mother wants to buy. Then you get a lull and perhaps even a dip in home prices during summer, which could be an attractive entry point. You might even get lucky and snag a price cut with a lot less competition while other prospective buyers are on vacation. That being said, get pre-approved NOW and set up your alerts for new listings ASAP and just be ready to pounce whenever. Discover additional details at Yahya Raje Leicester, England.

This is where the groundwork is laid for the search for your new home. There are several points you should cover in your initial consultation. For example: Define your needs; the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, size of the kitchen, where you want to live, your price range, timeline, etc. Determine when and how often you can look at prospective homes. Verify your contact information and how you want to be contacted (email, phone, etc.) Ask your agent about financing. They can explain the different types of available loan programs, and refer you to lenders that can answer specific questions. Review the paperwork. While not necessary at this point, reviewing paperwork will allow you the advantage to ask questions about documents before it’s time to sign them.

There are endless benefits to remodeling your kitchen and any real estate agent will probably tell you that the kitchen plays a big role in making a sale. Although it may cost a few thousand dollars to replace or remodel your kitchen, it is proven that you will probably get 85% of your money back. If your kitchen looks dated or worn out, buyers may try to knock off $10,000 or more off your asking price when it would have only taken you a few thousand dollars to upgrade the kitchen. The fastest and cheapest way to make a kitchen upgrade is to include new cabinet hardware and add a fresh coat of neutral color paint. By making this upgrade, buyers will be able to envision their own style using a blank canvas.

This should be a necessity for anyone who is buying real estate. You don’t want to buy a home that has a crack in the foundation or needs a new roof. A home inspection can spot these and other things that are wrong with the house, which gives you far more negotiating power, and it gives you a reasonable idea of what to expect in terms of expenses for the future. What type of storage space does the estate have? Is it a luxury home with plenty of space, or is it going to be a tight squeeze when you move all of your stuff in? This is important as you begin your home search, you want to set proper expectations for how much room you’ll really need. Discover additional info at Yahya Raje United Kingdom.

Spend Less Than You Earn: Yeah, yeah, I know, it sounds obvious, right? Well, it must not be because according to CNBC, 78% of Americans working full-time are living paycheck to paycheck. Here’s the thing: It’s easy to KNOW that you should be spending less than you earn, it’s a lot harder to actually do it. However, if you want to escape the paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle that so many others live, you need to spend less than you earn. This is one of the most crucial but basic personal finance tips ever. In order to do this, you need to track your spending. You can do this by either writing your purchases down or by using a free personal finance app. Business Debt: There are a lot of online business ideas you can start on the cheap these days, but a small investment can also go a long way in certain endeavors. Business loans are considered good debt because they are put towards something with the goal of increasing your net worth.

Renovating increases the house value says Yahya Raje : Most materials come in standard pack sizes, so quantities of things like insulation, bricks and blocks need to be rounded up. Contractors know that an allowance needs to be made for breakage, both in delivery and on site. Reclaimed materials for renovation projects have an even higher wastage factor. You may need to over-order by up to 20 per cent on second-hand bricks, slates and tiles compared to around five per cent for new. Better order too much than not enough. Any surplus can usually be sold or returned. Renovation work always costs more than you expect. This is because some problems are not revealed until you start work and uncover them, but mostly because items are forgotten from the budget, or because you change your mind and alter the design or specification.

Wow, 2020 was a challenging year. With so much that happened across the country, you might be wondering how it’ll impact real estate trends in 2023. While the pandemic did disrupt home sales in the spring of 2020 (which is usually considered the hottest season for real estate), the market quickly made an impressive rebound. Real estate experts have reported that the surge in home sales toward the end of 2020 actually made up for the spring market losses.1 Will we see more of the same results in 2023? How will the housing market shake out in our current economic climate? Whether you’re selling, buying or staying put, here are the 2023 real estate trends you need to know!

When we first started our home renovation journey I heard from so many people that the process wouldn’t be easy. But boy, I didn’t think it would be that hard. Renovating our home literally took years off of our lives. When I was going through it, I remember getting a DM from a reader who told me that they renovated their home about 3 years ago and while it was miserable, they would do it again in a heartbeat. At that moment, I wasn’t sure if she was right. Would I voluntarily put myself through this again? Fast forward a year, and it turns out she was right. I would do it again, but I would do it a little differently. Here’s what I wish I knew before I renovated my house and some home renovation tips:

Best rated Indian sarees online shop: Women traditionally wore various types of regional handloom saris made of silk, cotton, ikat, block-print, embroidery and tie-dye textiles. Most sought after brocade silk sarees are Banarasi, Kanchipuram, Gadwal, Paithani, Mysore, Uppada, Bhagalpuri, Balchuri, Maheshwari, Chanderi, Mekhela, Ghicha, Narayan pet and Eri etc. Years later with the advent of foreigners, the rich Indian women started asking the artisans to use expensive stones, gold threads to make exclusive saris for the strata, which could make them stand out clearly. But sari did remain unbiased as a garment and was adapted by each stratum, in their own way. That was the beauty of the garment, that still remains. See additional details at shop Indian sarees online.

The style was popularised in the 1870s by a Bengali lady – Jnanadanandini Devi … She adopted the front pleat style of wearing the sari from the Parsee women she had seen in Bombay, and wore it with a blouse and petticoat, as they did, which was different from the traditional Bengali style of wearing the sari, says Chishti, who started a Sari School in 2009 in Delhi, and conducts workshops on the sari and the different methods of tying them. The blouse is also an adaptation by the Parsees, from the Western puffed sleeve blouse they wore over the long skirt. Though they had come from Persia 700 years earlier, they adopted the sari as they sought asylum in India on the condition that they would wear the local dress, adopt the local food habits and the local language of the western state of Gujarat. The sari shows the rich diversity of Indian dyeing, printing and silk weaving.

According to Chishti, there are more than one hundred ways to drape a sari depending on region, fabric, length and width of the garment, and what the wearer might be doing that day. She created a series of videos showcasing dozens of ways to tie one on. “The younger generation wants to be able to experiment with it, to wear it in various ways,” she says. Among the techniques for wearing a sari: the ubiquitous Nivi drape (pleated, wrapped around the waist, with the pallu (the embellished end of the garment) flung over the left shoulder); and the rural Dharampur drape, which cleverly transforms a long rectangle of material into knee-length bloomers. Most sari presentations require a choli (cropped top) and slender half petticoat, the latter often helps to anchor all that textile wrapping and fabric manipulation. Some sari folds need to be held with stitches or pins, others are more free form, like fabric origami for the body.

Hegemony and its many deleterious aspects include the shackling of thought processes. Thought processes are so sacred that they deny the colony the right to free thinking. Colonization has taken away our right to think in the context so innate and sacred to individuals—the right to express ourselves through the art of wearing. Therefore, there remains an urgent need to reverse this thinking through decolonization. Decolonization entails removing oppressive behaviors while assisting Indigenous peoples in reclaiming land, culture, language, community, family, history, and traditions that were taken away through the colonial process.

My fondest childhood memories were going sari shopping with my mother and grandmother. I was fascinated by the endless shelves piled with neatly folded, colourful saris, entertained by the salespeople, who were always men, unfolding and draping the whole sari on themselves, and educated by the haggling over the prices while countless cups of coffee were consumed. When Matthan received a gift of 47 Kanjeevaram silks from her ailing grandmother, she was inspired to start the 100sareepact, a social media movement, along with 52-year-old Anju Maudgal Kadam, which encourages women to wear saris and share their stories online.

Lisa Ly or the climb of a a relationships writer: The book features her struggles with setting boundaries, navigating through the dating scene in different stages of her life, and chronicling her pursuit of love and addiction to mind-blowing sex. Interestingly, the book also showcases her adventures and how she discovered the different behaviors of different men. On this journey, she experienced love, lust, and heartbreaks. Did Lisa find love, or did she find herself in the process? Discover even more details on https://linktr.ee/iamlisaly.

Lisa Ly is a multi-talented individual with a broad range of focus areas. She published a book on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. In addition to that, she is also a swimsuit designer who is coming out with her brand-new line very soon. Her brand is named Bronzed Babe Swim, and it stands out as a perfect introduction to her unique style and creative vision.

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative? As an author, my most rewarding aspect is when my readers tell me they can relate to my stories. They say to me, wow, your journey is incredible, yet some chapters are heartbreaking. It feels good when they tell me they are proud of me for penning my pain and growth as a person.

I’ve always wanted to become an author, as writing was an outlet. I had a story to tell that many could relate to. After a tough breakup, I realized that I reverted back to being a caretaker emotionally and physically to the man in my life. I wasn’t working on the version of me that was destined to be and do more. I was determined to no longer let fear and criticism of who I knew I could become hinder my growth. I had to sit with myself and allow my pain to become my most prominent driving force to overcome my fear of sharing my story. Life is hard, and we all have our own unique stories that are worth being heard. I wanted to ensure that I contributed mine to the world.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers: I’m Lisa, and I am a mother of two. I have an adult son and a daughter who’s seven. We reside in Los Angeles, CA. I am an immigrant from Cambodia and migrated to America when I was six years old and was raised in the Bay Area. My mother was the first generation to arrive in America; therefore, we were strictly raised to preserve our traditions. In my culture, women are raised to become wives and caretakers. I’ve always felt that I was destined for so much more. From an early age, I was inquisitive and always wanted to make my mother proud, even if I had to break the mold and introduce some foreign concepts to my family. I wanted to show them we can do what we set our minds to.

Lisa’s adventures in life are incredibly compelling. She is also incredibly active in swimsuit design, and her new collection is groundbreaking. There is something extraordinary about her designs, which are perfect for allowing women to shine and look fantastic! These swimsuits offer a deeper insight into Lisa’s impeccable fashion sense, and what she offered hits the spot in terms of quality. Her swimwear is posh, somewhere between modern excellence and timeless charm.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson? One of my biggest lessons is learning to set boundaries and learning what those were. Being a Cambodian woman, I was raised to appease and accommodate. I was raised to sacrifice my own happiness to ensure the happiness of others first. That mentality has led me to not know boundaries and caused many disappointments in relationships, whether friendships and/or romantic. I didn’t want to say no or would sacrifice a little of my own happiness to make sure the other person’s needs were met. That was a recipe for disaster and pain.

My swimsuit line idea came to me in April when I was on vacation in Belize. I’ve always loved traveling, especially to tropical destinations. Another factor was I was tired of being in corporate America. I wanted to do something I was passionate about and strictly for myself. I needed to evolve, so I decided to plunge into the swimwear world! I plan to launch my line Bronzed Babe Swim in March/April of 2023. Find additional info on https://www.facebook.com/BronzedBabeSwim.

Lisa has an exciting and one-of-a-kind background. She moved to the United States from her native country, Cambodia when she was only 6. Based in California, she put herself through college and obtained a BA in business management from Menlo College in Atherton, CA. This was a springboard for Lisa to kickstart a very successful career in industries as diverse as technology and finance. For over 20 years, Lisa has worked in corporate America, building her family and raising her two children in the Los Angeles area. Today, she is ready to take a leap and focus on an actual passion project, launching a stunning swimwear collection and reaching out to the world as a published author.

Saving people in a war zone with Alnaserbelh Al Naseri: As an emergency room physician in Iraq, Dr. Alnaserbelh Al Naseri not rarely faces very challenging circumstances. In the middle of a crisis, his patients love his grace under heavy pressure without realizing that his courage was forged as a patient, not in medical school. At 17, he was shot in the leg by a sniper. He could have caved under peer pressure and considered revenge, but instead, as he recently told a journalist, he remembered Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous words, “Violence begets violence.” After being treated without anesthesia in an understaffed emergency room, he decided to pursue a career in medicine to fill an urgent need in Iraq. Read even more details at Alnaserbelh Al Naseri.

Dr. Alnaserbelh Al Naseri is a proud 2010 Iraqi Youth Leaders Exchange Program (IYLEP) alumnus and he is committed to working with fellow Iraqi alumni to improve the state of medical care in Baghdad, particularly for children with grave illnesses. When he is not pulling double shifts as a resident at the Sulaimaniyah Teaching Hospital, Dr. Alnaserbelh Al Naseri is an active member of the Iraqi exchange alumni community. He credits his exchange with launching his impressive volunteer work, saying “I view my IYLEP experience as the starting point of my volunteer work in support of civil society and the start of my work in youth leadership. The new friends that I met during IYLEP provided me inspiration and a strong network that I knew I could rely upon even far away in Iraq.”

Al-Nasir Bellah Al-Nasiry was attacked and shot as a teenager. But instead of seeking revenge today he is a medical doctor and an advocate for a peaceful future in Iraq. But the teenage Al-Nasiry had other ideas about how to react. “I remembered this saying from Martin Luther King [Jr.], ‘Violence begets violence, and hate begets hate,’” he says. “So I thought … if I go out and shoot people because of this, I would probably shoot another innocent bystander. I would fuel this idiotic cycle of violence.”

Alnaserbelh Al Naseri’s story is one of hope in the face of extreme adversity. In 2006, Alnaserbelh Al Naseri was shot in the leg in Baghdad (a war zone). Nasir went to the emergency room and there were no doctors on call to treat him; they were treating three wounded police officers. He was treated for a gunshot wound by a nurse without anesthesia. Today, at 26 years old, Nasir is himself a doctor working in his country. Given the instability in Iraq today, he could choose to leave. Instead, he serves his people. His leadership reminds me that millennial leadership exists in every place on earth; these are the leaders the world must invest in and unite behind.

Today, Al-Nasiry wears many hats and holds an impressive list of titles. He is a resident at the Sulaimaniyah Teaching Hospital, a coordinator at TEDxBaghdad, a member of the Iraqi Youth Parliament, and is on the Global Advisory Council of World Learning, alongside ambassadors, CEOs, and NGO presidents. He frequently gives talks on youth empowerment and is a tireless activist when he is not on the speaker’s podium or within hospital walls.

He started a project called “There’s Always Hope” with Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) and IYLEP alumni. Project volunteers visit local medical facilities and provide support to Iraqi children with cancer. For the past three years, Dr. Alnaserbelh Al Naseri has worked with alumni to organize the annual Baghdad City of Peace Carnival in conjunction with the UN’s World Peace Day. The Carnival, which features a wide array of entertainers, poets, and actors, attracts thousands of annual attendees who come together to promote alternatives to violence, extremism, and sectarianism.

“The ideology, or education and teachings that we are used to having – the words we kept hearing at that time – about Americans in general was vanishing second by second,” he says. In February 2015, Al-Nasiry was invited to attend the Summit on Countering Violent Extremism at the White House. When asked what he would say to President Obama about ways to prevent or mitigate the swarms of youths in Iraq becoming involved in violent groups, Al-Nasiry did not hesitate.

His work with the alumni network is only the beginning of his career in civil society. He is also a member of the Iraqi Youth Parliament and the head of the TEDxBaghdad blogging team. Dr. Alnaserbelh Al Naseri’s professional accomplishments are impressive, but his personal story of resilience and forgiveness serve as a reminder of the truth in Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s statement on courage: “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

Each month, the State Department’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs’ (ECA) Alumni Affairs Division, which supports program alumni as they build on their exchange experiences, recognizes one outstanding alumnus or alumna.
