My AutoCAD-01; List
What is the use of “LIST” command?
While we are measure the irregular shape, we have to measure the each line. For example see the following shape.
Here we have to measure each straight line separately & curve line. Suppose your PM ask give me this shape’s area, it’s urgent…. But it will take time to measure.
In AutoCAD there is one command “LIST”. If we use this command we able to find the Perimeter Length, Area, radius of the curve & angle also.
But here one condition that particular object should draw by “POLYLINE”. Because when we use the Polyline then only that is an one object.
Now you able to see one dialog box from that we findout our requirement
Shortkey for List: li

How to Apply….?
Click “Tool” in that “Inquiry” select “LIST”, Now see the command bar ‘Select objects:’, so now we have to select the object then “Right Click”.

TYROLEAN RENDER
WBS Tyrolean is a cementitious cement based render incorporating silicone technology.
Applied using a hand operated or open-hopper spraying machine, the unique ‘honeycomb’ texture is built up using several strokes from different angles until a finished thickness of 4mm – 6mm is achieved.
The substrate must possess suction capabilities for the tyrolean finish to achieve the desired effect.
Hardwearing & weatherproof, therefore highly suitable for coastal, suburban and rural environments.
Plastering Advice & Tips - Creating a Tyrolean Finish
What Is A Tyrolean Finish In Plastering Terms?
Tyrolean finish is an exterior rough finish whose name originates from the traditional alpine building process and gives a weathered look to walls. Tyrolean is a traditional finish in the UK and is available in different colors. If applied properly, tyrolean finishes resist cracking unlike plaster and cement finishes. Tyrolean finishes resist rain and snow and provides some insulation for both temperature and sound.
Tyrolean finishes are applied on top of a rendered wall. If a tyrolean finish is desired on top of a brick or block work wall, render must be applied first and allowed to cure for at least four days prior to tyrolean finish coat.
Tools Needed To Apply Tyrolean Finish to Rendering
Tyrolean finish can be purchased as a dry mixture needing only water to prepare for application.
The main tool for tyrolean application is the tyrolean flicker gun hand tool. This tool consists of a reservoir, a hand crank attached to a spindle with comb like wires and a tension bar to adjust the amount of splatter. Other than the flicker gun, the only tools required for applying a tyrolean finish are a bucket and a trowel or stick for mixing and, if necessary, a ladder or scaffold. The flicker gun tool uses the wires to scoop the material and flick it in splotches onto the wall surface. It is possible to hire the tool daily or weekly however, the tool itself is not that expensive to purchase.
Tyrolean finish is applied in thin layers and usually requires 4-6 coats. Tyrolean mixture should be a slurry consistency thin enough to flick but thick enough not to slide off the wall. The tyrolean mixture should be mixed in a bucket and kept nearby for refilling the flicker gun tool. It is extremely important to remix prior to refilling the tool. It is helpful to refill approximately the same amount into the flicker tool each time in order to keep the application even.
How To Apply The Tyrolean Finish To Plastering / Rendering
Once the wall is prepared, through a thorough cleaning and repairing any cracks, the tyrolean mixture can be applied to the wall. While keeping the flicker tool square to the wall and approximately 250 mm from the wall, turn the hand crank with a steady motion and work slowly and consistently across the wall surface. In order to keep the layer a consistent thickness, keep the gun at the same angle, move at a consistent speed and turn the hand crank at a steady rate. A good pattern for application is to work from the top left to right then down and back to the left. Although arm fatigue is an issue with the hand crank, it is important to work with a wet edge; if the edge dries, a noticeable line may be present in the finish.
It is a good idea to practice first if this is your first attempt at using the tyrolean flicker tool. Once the first layer begins to set, apply the next layer. Repeat the process until there are 4-6 thin coats.

Keeping Your Personal Health Insurance Rate Down
You may be shelling out much more than the average premium for health insurance in your city may be very different. Your health care insurance coverage and its rate are impacted by many different factors. Some factors . you are able to influcence and some you don't.
The significant factors that affect your price for individual healthcare care coverage are:
when you were born
your sex
your town
your smoking status
pre-existing conditions
your bmi
your chosen company
your choice of plan
Age and Your Sex
Your age and your gender are major factors that may effect your payments for healthcare cover. As we have birthdays the statistical probability that we will need health care. Females carry most of the burden of reproduction, females visit health care care providers more frequently than men during their teens through their fifties.
Your location
Your area can impact the cost of your medical care coverage. As a general rule, the more affluent the city, the more doctors will charge. This impacts the amount of costs the coverage carrier pays for and of course these bills are passed on to their clients who reside in those locations.
Tobacco Status
Most individual health insurance coverage carriers will charge more if you have used tobacco in the last year. Cigarette smoking has a tremendous influence on your need for medical care and because of it the costs a health care coverage company has to pay. Now you have one more reason to stop!
Health Status and body weight
Your medical history and your body mass index are two huge factors regarding not only the cost of your individual or private healthcare cover policy, but also the availability of coverage. The insurance carriers can't see your individual future, but they are great at analyzing numbers and trends. Individuals in different body weight ranges have different healthcare costs.
It is not possible to predict the future medical history for one man or woman, but when they review the statistics large numbers of people, they see definite patterns. They have a very good idea regarding which medical care conditions are most likely to cost them the most and will do what they can to keep their company profitable. It can mean that they will reject an application. Sometimes they will add a surcharge and/or eliminate coverage for a particular disease
Regular exercise and intelligent eating can reduce your price for your health care policy and extend the time you get to enjoy your life. Often health issues are beyond our control, but many can be prevented or at least delayed. Regular check-ups, eating well, stress management and a host of other factors that are within your control can help you keep your health care payments lower. You probably have more control over your health than you give yourself credit for.
Your Choice of cover company and Plan
Shopping around is crucial when it comes to health coverage. One insurance carrier may charge much less than the average price for medical coverage in your town and another may cost more than the average. The insurer that has the lowest price for twenty year olds may not be the same cover carrier that offers the best price for those in their forties.
You'll find the similar variance when it comes to other deductible ranges. The cover company that has the cheapest low-co-pay HMO could have the worst premiums for an HDHP HMO policy.
High Deductible Plans with Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are great low cost options. These plans appear on the surface to have limited protection. However, when you consider all the benefits and all the costs, you might discover that these plans are the best low cost choice for your family.
Conclusion
Many factors are beyond your control or are difficult to control. However, you may find
that some things are controllable.
When you are contemplating different places to live, you may want to get insurance premiums associated with each location. You may want to investigate smoking cessation systems or body weight management and find a system that will work for you.

You should shop for coverage, different companies charge differently for similar covereage options. You don't have to contact all the companies that service your area, you can work with an insurance agent who is appointed with the various insurance carriers in your county. Finally, be open to high deductible cover options. Most people's overall expenses will be lower when they handle the costs for the small things out of their pocket and let the insurance company cover for the larger expenses.
Nine reasons to drink green tea daily
Have you been wondering “what’s all the fuss about green tea?” Now you can stop wondering and start drinking ... green tea, that is. This flavorful beverage offers many health benefits to anyone who drinks it regularly. Green tea contains a potent plant nutrient known as epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG, for short. But don’t fret, you don’t have to keep track of its chemical name to reap the health benefits.Here are nine reasons to start drinking green tea or continue drinking it if you’re already hooked.
1. Green tea is a superb fat fighter. Its active ingredient, EGCG, increases the rate at which fat is burned in your body.
2. It targets belly fat. Research at Tufts University indicates that EGCG in green tea, like other catechins, activate fat-burning genes in the abdomen to speed weight loss by 77 percent.
3. Green tea keeps energy stable by balancing blood sugar levels. EGCG improves insulin use in the body to prevent blood sugar spikes and crashes that can result in fatigue, irritability, and cravings for unhealthy foods.
4. Research shows it may be helpful against lung cancer. In an April 2010 study published in Cancer Prevention Research, EGCG was found to suppress lung cancer cell growth.
5. Green tea may halt colorectal cancer. In numerous other studies, EGCG appears to inhibit colorectal cancers.
6. In research, it appears to cause prostate cancer cells to commit suicide. A March 2010 study in Cancer Science indicated that EGCG aids the body by causing prostate cancer cells to commit suicide.
7. Green tea may prevent skin damage and wrinkling. EGCG appears to be 200 times more powerful than vitamin E at destroying skin-damaging free radicals. Free radicals react with healthy cells in the body, causing damage, so lessening their numbers may help reduce wrinkling and other signs of aging.
8. It contains a potent antioxidant that kills free radicals. Because it is a potent antioxidant green tea can positively impact a lot more than skin cells. Free radicals are increasingly linked to many serious chronic illnesses like arthritis, diabetes, and cancer.
9. Green tea tastes good. If you’re not wild about the flavor, try a few different kinds. Try it iced or hot. Add some of the natural herb stevia to sweeten it if you want a sweeter drink. I wasn’t crazy about green tea the first few times I tried it, but now I love it with a fresh squeeze of lemon and a few drops of stevia over ice -- et voila! Green tea lemonade. Mmmmm.
Reap the rewards
Add one or two teaspoons of green tea leaves to a cup of boiling water, preferably in a tea strainer. Let steep for five minutes. Pour over ice if you prefer a cold beverage. Most experts recommend three cups daily. And, don’t worry, green tea contains a lot less caffeine than coffee or black tea.
