We also like the Freedom No Pull model for larger dogs because it’s sold in a wider range of sizes than our other picks, available for dogs weighing 14 to 250 pounds or with chests measuring 14 to 44 inches. Or, if you prefer, you can use the back attachment ring for a traditional walking experience. Redesigned handles are lighter and shorter with the most comfortable grip yet. Go light to heavy and back again for an effective full-body workout. Constructed of clear plastic that provides easy identification of the box.

It has a belly strap behind the armpits and a horizontal attachment point along the lower chest, as on our top pick, rather than at the neck. The 2 Hounds Design Freedom No Pull Dog Harness is the harness we recommend for dog owners who want greater control over a rambunctious or large dog. No matter how strong of a grip you think you have on your 100-pound behemoth’s leash, there’s no planning for when they suddenly lunge at a cat darting across the street. Although Kurgo offers a lifetime warranty, that policy covers manufacturing defects only, and there’s a small fee to replace the harness if your dog chews through a strap. Christmas Tree Gift Box Xmas Elk Print Candlestick Candle Holder Table Lamp one.

Take a look while you sip a mug, and tickle your tongue with flavor while we tickle your funny bone with humor! We’ve put together a list of some of the best coffee memes out there! COFFEE BUZZ GIF FULLĪnd with the digital world full of memes, you’re sure to come across a good one now and then about coffee and coffee drinkers. You’ll come away with extra energy and high spirits between the caffeine and the laughter. That relaxing time we spend with our family… The time when we look back at our lives with appreciation, thanking our closest persons and wishing everyone the best. The holiday season is freakin’ exhausting. Let’s admit it, before anything else we need to be fueled up with some delicious coffee to be able to enjoy the holiday season. Did you think those stars shine on their own?Ĭoffee is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end of all good things. Why would Santa’s crew be any different? So what if a little favoritism is involved here. As long as the presents get where they’re supposed to, I’m okay with Santa’s little coffee bribery. I’m sure you’ve all witnessed people reacting differently to a barista mixing up the coffee order. Some get CRAZY, demanding revenge, throwing chairs (OK, I’m making this up). But, honestly, no one likes their coffee order mixed-up. Why? Because then you have to wait longer for them to make a new one. Or, if you’re too nice, you’ll accept the one they brought. Let’s just say this waiter was lucky that Mr. Snowman has a MELTING POINT, RATHER THAN THE BOILING ONE. Who knows how he’d react had he not been made of ice. Holiday season transitionsĮvery reign comes to an end. You’ll know it’s Christmas season by Eggnog spice coffee’s RECLAIM OF THE THRONE.Īlso, you’ll know that WINTER’S COMING. So, you know what to do – get the nearest blanket, make yourself some delicious holiday-spiced coffee and stay away from the cold. How many times have I laughed at how baristas misspell my name on the coffee mug. I’ve gone from different genders to pet’s names and different nationalities. Sorry, Santa, you were given some funny cards the night you were born. How the Grinch Stole Christmas! is such a classic tale, one of the most popular Dr. Seuss stories, and Jim Carrey’s take on the not-so-cuddly creature thrilled audiences. ![]() Especially notable was his portrayal of the grumpy disposition the Grinch had. Of course, the grievous green grouch may have blamed his troubles on a lack of Christmas cheer, but we all know the truth - he just needed a cup of coffee! Maybe with enough caffeine, the blood would have pumped through him better, and he wouldn’t have needed his heart to grow three sizes to warm ( 1) up! 7. A Case of the MondaysĮveryone has come to love the deviant little yellow creatures known as the Minions. They appear everywhere and are particularly popular in memes. With their special language and overly dramatic reactions to everything, it’s no wonder that they seem a bit strung out on caffeine. Of course, you may not have the same aspiration of taking over the word that these little creatures have, but enough coffee to start your day off right can certainly make you feel capable of joining in that endeavour! Proceed with caution, though: an entire pot could actually lead to profound happiness! 8. Okay, maybe this is taking things a little far. ![]() ![]() ![]() If I may, I would suggest that, while it is true that a logo is very functional and one must take into account the usage to decide upon the needed form, it is also a matter of how new a brand is. Great article, very useful for clients or beginners in the industry (and even for non-native speakers in the agencies, who meet the terms for the first time). Have you heard some confusing logo terminology? Are you unsure about which type of logo you need? Leave a comment and we’ll help bring some clarity. Will you be printing your logo on bumper stickers? Creating billboards? Starting a viral marketing campaign? Do you need to communicate more with external customers or internal employees and volunteers? You may need a collection of wordmark, brandmark, lettermark, and various lockups to meet your needs. The trick is to find the best combination of visual appeal and clear communication while meeting the restrictions of any specific application.ĭeciding on a logo format is all about the application. Lockups can also be made from a main logo and a department name or a logo and slogan.īusinesses often use a lockup, sometimes called a combination logo, as their primary identifying mark. This is the exact arrangement of the individual pieces to create a new whole. While a wordmarks, brandmarks, and lettermarks can operate separately, they can also appear “locked together” as a lockup. Most people don’t know HBO stands for “Home Box Office,” so it would be silly for the movie channel to use that full name in its primary logo. By using a lettermark logo, the 24-hour breakfast chain found a place in our hearts and bellies as IHOP. International House of Pancakes is quite a mouthful when you’re discussing where to grab stuffed French toast at 2 a.m. ![]() Universities are referred to by their initials more often than their full names, so these institutions also need a recognizable lettermark.Ī lettermark can be useful if you have a long name or are more commonly known as an acronym. Think of the Yankees and the classic NY on their hats. Sports teams often use lettermarks as part of their greater branding systems. It’s the design of a brand’s initials only. Many companies use a brandmark as one part of a greater logo family.Ī lettermark is like a logo’s monogram. Brandmarks are also useful for internal communications or when you want to be subtler with your branding. Sometimes space just isn’t available for your full wordmark. That oh-so-sleek nibbled fruit tells you all you need to know.īrandmarks, also called iconic logos or logomarks, are useful for small business, too. You don’t need to read a company name of the back of your Mac to know it’s an Apple product. The world’s most recognizable companies use brandmarks because they’re so well-known that a symbol is sufficient. But using a wordmark as your primary logo can be difficult if you have a particularly long or difficult to pronounce business name.Ī brandmark is a symbol that represents a brand without the accompanying name. This can be especially important for small businesses and nonprofit organizations that haven’t yet built a large following. The benefit of a wordmark is that it features the full name of your company or organization so it cultivates clear brand recognition. Wordmarks can also be called logotypes, emphasis on type. The whole design is wrapped up in the typography, the nuanced handling of the letters only without additional symbols or graphics. It includes the exact typeface, color, letter spacing, and arrangement of a word. Use this quick guide to master logo terminology and learn about the most common logo forms.Ī wordmark is the custom design of a brand name. Logos come in all shapes, sizes, and formats. ![]() ![]() ![]() Because we can’t negate the VPN (for obvious security reasons), we experimented with all applications.

This is a big security no-no that’s taught in any introductory security class. Finally, I was very surprised to find that ooVoo actually e-mails your account password to you in plain text. At no point is your information ever decrypted and re-encrypted at a middleman server. With VSee, your information is encrypted from the moment it leaves your computer all the way to its final destination (the receiving person). Not to continue beating a horse that’s still very much alive, but ooVoo relies on a go-between server that can expose your information to the public. Finally, VSee’s drag-and-drop file send is an intuitive way to immediately “hand over” files that you have just finished collaborating on together.

Even Skype offers HD video, but few people are able to actually take advantage of it. So when ooVoo says it offers HD video, while it may work in theory, it’s questionable how well it works in practice. In fact, VSee is able to deliver four HD video feeds simultaneously over a 4G wireless network. VSee’s proprietary technology is designed to use 30-50% less bandwidth than most video calling solutions including ooVoo, WebEx, and Skype, which means that VSee is able to deliver high quality video over some of the weakest networks. I’m not alone when I say that VSee provides some of the highest quality interactive video around. Of course, the best thing to do is to try out VSee and ooVoo for yourself, especially since both offer free group video calls. While I can’t tell you if VSee is the ooVoo alternative for your needs, I will point out some issues with video quality, collaboration design, and security that may help.

When it comes to crypto futures contracts, the counterparties wager on the price of a particular crypto coin at a certain point in time in the future. Futures exchanges are necessarily the platforms where futures contracts are traded and sealed. A futures contract works as a buffer when it comes to the ever-changing prices of particularly volatile assets that are traded frequently. While this might or might not turn out to be a profitable bargain, it’s important to keep in mind that the whole point of a futures contract is risk mitigation, and not increased profits. Once a futures contract has been agreed upon, all involved parties must carry through with it at the predetermined price, regardless of the product’s market price at the time of the contract’s termination. So futures allow counterparties to trade upon the projected future price of an asset.
