article: Debt settlement isn't as bad as a bankruptcy, but it is almost as bad. With debt settlement, you stop making payment on your debts. Instead, you make payments to a debt settlement company. After a certain amount of time, this company will approach your creditors and try to negotiate a settlement using the lump sum you have saved. If successful, you might end up paying only a fraction of what you owe. With this approach, your credit score will be shredded because you aren't paying your bills. Also, there's no guarantee that your creditors will agree to negotiate with you. Debt settlement works only if your debt is "unsecured." This means it isn't backed up with collateral like a secured loan is. Unsecured debt is typically credit card or medical debt. Most debt settlement companies are "for profit," and in any profit-seeking field there are many scams. Make sure to research any debt settlement company you see on the Internet or advertising on television. In particular, keep an eye peeled for the following: A debt settlement company should not guarantee a result. It's ultimately up to your creditors whether they agree to settle your debt. Never pay upfront fees and avoid any company that charges fees before settling your debt. The company shouldn't promise it can stop collections lawsuits. It can't. Avoid any company with a long history of unhappy customers bringing lawsuits. You can find this information in a few ways: Search online. Type the company's name and "complaints" into a search engine. Read through the results. If you see people complaining of being scammed, then cross the company off your list. Contact the Better Business Bureau for the city where the debt settlement company has its main office. Call your state's Attorney General, which might have information on lawsuits filed against the company. A legitimate debt settlement company must give you disclosures. You should read them carefully. If you don't receive anything, then don't sign with the company. The following disclosures are required: A description of the fees charged and any conditions of service. For example, the disclosures should spell out how much you will have to pay the company. The length of time that will pass before the debt settlement company tries to negotiate with your creditors. What happens if you stop paying your creditors. In particular, the debt settlement company should explain how stopping payments will hurt your credit and potentially make you vulnerable to a lawsuit. Who will manage the bank account you pay money into. An explanation that you can take your money out of the account whenever you want and that you are entitled to any interest that accrues on the deposited amount. You shouldn't work with a debt settlement company unless you have a detailed contract. If you don't understand it, then schedule a meeting with an attorney who can help you. Always keep a signed copy of the contract for your records. If at any time the debt settlement company doesn't follow its contract, you should reach out to your attorney.

Apply wood glue to the back the corbel about every 12in (1.3cm). Hold the wood glue up to your surface for 60-90 seconds. Hang your second corbel with wood glue after the first is secured. Hammer in 1 nail at the bottom of your corbel for a more secure hold."
article: Arrange your corbels in your desired location. If you'd like, use a pencil to mark your placement, so you can easily install them when you are ready. This ensures you don't misplace your corbels. If you want to use the floor, lay down a drop cloth or piece of cardboard so dirt and debris do not get on your corbels. Lay the corbels down so the back edge faces you. This way, you can easily apply the glue. Place your corbels down gently so they don't get damaged. Apply your glue in dime-sized beads, working from top to bottom. Evenly space out your beads of glue, and apply glue around the edges if you want extra stability. Purchase wood glue from a home supply store. After you've applied your wood glue, hold your corbel up to the wall. Push the corbel against the wall with moderate pressure for about a minute. Then, let your glue dry for 2-3 hours. Your corbel should easily stay in place. If it starts to slide, apply more wood glue to the back. After you've installed the first corbel, repeat the process for your other corbel. It is best to work 1 corbel at a time so your glue doesn't dry out. Pick a spot towards the bottom of your corbel, and hold a nail up to the corbel. Use a hammer to attach the nail to your corbel and wall. Be sure to use a nail thick enough to reach through both surfaces. This way, your corbel will stay put with confidence. You can do this right after you secure the corbel. The wood glue can dry after you install the nail. If your corbels are painted, you can use a bit of putty to cover up the nail if you'd like. Place the putty over top the nail head to hide it. Alternatively, you can use a nail gun.

Eat often. Snack during the Induction phase of Atkins Monitor water intake. Survive the first ten days of an Atkins diet Avoid the pit-falls of the Atkins diet. Determine whether you're ready to move on to the next phase."

The Induction phase is designed to kick-start the Atkins diet by putting the body into a state of ketosis, which metabolizes stored fat. Some people lose as much as 15 pounds (6.8 kg) in 2 weeks, but only if they have an extreme amount of weight to lose, usually 100 pounds or more. It is normal to lose 4 to 6 pounds on Induction. Ketosis occurs when your body has no sugar based energy and uses fat instead. Ketosis has some side effects such as nausea, headache, mental fatigue and bad breath. Not everyone enters Ketosis. It is not uncommon to get sick during any dietary changes, especially if you have been eating unhealthy foods for some time. Remember to hydrate your body, take your vitamins and get adequate sleep. After removing unhealthy carbs, replace them with vegetables and some proteins and fats. Atkins is diet based on VEGETABLES, unlike any other diet out there. Eating more healthy carbs from vegetables will bring nutrition to your body and still let you lose weight. Try to eat the following foods to obtain these fats and proteins: You can eat chicken, red meat, fish and eggs, including egg yolks. Aim for at least 4 ounces (113 g) of protein at each meal. You may enjoy fats including olive oil and mayonnaise during this phase. Consume more mono and polyunsaturated fats instead of saturated fats and trans fats. Avoid processed meats, as they may be cured with sugar and count as carbs. The main focus of Atkins is to eat healthy carbs from vegetables. Strive to get 12-15 grams of healthy carbs from vegetables like leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower, and others listed on the Atkins Phase 1 (Induction) List here: https://www.atkins.com/how-it-works/atkins-20/phase-1/low-carb-foods. Keep the amount of other carbohydrates that you eat every day as low as possible. This will help you to lose weight at this stage of the diet. Consume 20 grams of carbohydrates or fewer during this phase. 12-15 grams should come from healthy vegetables. Remember, Atkins is a VEGETABLE-based diet. No other diet puts such an important emphasis on healthy veggies! Avoid fruits and grains such as bread and pasta during Induction. Make sure that 12 to 15 grams of your daily carbohydrates come from foundation vegetables. Foundation vegetables are vegetables with next to no carbohydrates. Examples include pickles, spinach, broccoli, sauerkraut, avocado, Daikon radish, red or white onion, and zucchini. Eat at least once every 2-3 hours when you are awake. You can choose to eat five to six smaller meals to jump-start your metabolism. Eating only 3 times per day will not yield as good results for most people, though it will still work. When you do eat, make sure to only eat until you feel full. Do not overindulge. . Eat at least one mid-morning and one mid-afternoon snack to help conquer cravings and to help maintain energy levels. Keeping energy levels up is important. Choose snacks that are high in fat and protein. Fat and protein help to maintain blood sugar and extend satiety. This is critical during any weight loss program, but especially in one where carbohydrates are limited. Make sure your snacks have minimal carbohydrates. Don't be afraid to make changes to how you were snacking before. Try snacks such as vegetables with hummus, a deviled egg, or even beef jerky. Drink 64 fluid ounces (1.9 L) of water daily during your low-carbohydrate diet. In addition, drink 2 cups of broth or eat 2 tablespoons of soy sauce to help your body retain sodium and potassium. . Surviving the big changes of the first days of Atkins may require support. Preparation for certain physical challenges, like lagging energy and dizziness, is also important. Watch your food budget to accommodate for more vegetables, protein, and other whole foods. Keep your meals interesting by trying new foods that fit with the Atkins diet. Certain uncomfortable physiological symptoms and potential nutritional deficiencies can be avoided by taking a few precautionary measures while you're on the Atkins diet. Avoid staying on Induction for more than 2-4 weeks. Some people try to stay on Induction for months or even a year or more, and this is VERY unhealthy for your body. In fact, it is NOT recommended by Atkins nor anyone at Atkins. If you are on Induction for longer than a month, you are no longer doing Atkins. Atkins insists on moving forward and adding more healthy carbs back to your diet. Drink plenty of water. Take supplements such as vitamins and minerals. Get plenty of rest. Eat plenty of fiber Monitor your weight and pay attention to exactly how much you have lost. Weight loss is NEVER the only gauge and tell if you it's time to move on to the next Phase of the Atkins diet. Remember to take measurements, check how your clothes fit, and if you have been on Induction for a month, move on to the next Phase. There is NO minimum weight loss to reach before moving on to step 2. Stay in Phase 1 for NO MORE than 4 weeks. You should NEVER stay on Inductions for 6 months or more. That is NOT Atkins. Anyone who states that you "should" lose a certain amount of weight like 15 pounds or that you should stay on Induction for 6 months or a year is NOT doing Atkins. They are advocating a dangerous and unhealthy diet. Please consult Colette Heimowitz, the nutritional expert at Atkins for more information.
