Here's everything to know about cocaine being found in the White House

The Lifeguard Division provides water rescue and medical services to 11 cities and consists of specialized and trained professionals who protect Catalina Island and 72 miles of sandy beaches and open water. Well versed in emergency management, Chief Inman became a pioneer in the Urban Search and Rescue program that included several national deployments. For over 23 years, he has held various incident command system (ICS) positions as part of the United States Forest Service Type 2 Incident Management Team (IMT) and served as the operations section chief and operations branch director with the Cal Fire Type 1 IMT.

After graduating from high school, he completed paramedic training at the Los Angeles County Paramedic Training Institute and was hired by the City of Monrovia as a full-time firefighter/paramedic until he joined the County of Los Angeles in 1999. The grounds of the White House in Washington DC were evacuated on Sunday (July 2) when the United States Secret Service (USSS) called in hazardous materials specialists to deal with an "unknown item". A person familiar with the investigation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an open inquiry, said that the radio dispatch discussing the test of the substance was placed between the District of Columbia Fire Department’s hazmat team and other officials within the department. While the Secret Service and other law enforcement entities are often called to investigate suspicious packages on the perimeter of the White House complex, it’s far rarer for the building to be cleared, either due to potentially hazardous materials or other incidents. The “unknown item” found in the West Wing that forced a brief evacuation of the White House Sunday night and drew a hazmat team to the executive mansion initially tested positive for cocaine, according to officials and a dispatch call made that evening. The White House was briefly evacuated Sunday evening while President Biden was at Camp David after a suspicious powder was discovered by the Secret Service in a common area of the West Wing, and a preliminary test showed the substance was cocaine, two law enforcement officials said Tuesday.

Reporting an Incident

As a chief officer, battalion chief assignments have included Battalion 5 in Malibu, Battalion 16 in Covina, Battalion 20 in Inglewood, and Battalion 2 in San Dimas. He also served as the camp section battalion chief for the paid camps and heavy equipment unit. As an assistant fire chief, he was assigned to Division 2 in the east San Gabriel Valley and the Air & Wildland Division. As of October 2022, Chief Mayfield’s new assignment is to command and lead the Central Regional Operations Bureau. In this role, he provides leadership for four divisions, seven battalions, 55 fire stations within 22 cities, and over 1,600 firefighting and lifeguard personnel.

President Biden and his family were away at Camp David when a uniformed Secret Service agent found the substance during a patrol of the West Wing around 6 p.m. On Sunday, the person said, prompting a brief shutdown of some of the White House campus as response workers assessed whether the substance was hazardous. "As a precaution, the White House grounds were evacuated, and the DC Fire Departments Hazmat team responded," the spokesperson said. In 2017, an intruder hopped the White House fence while carrying a backpack and made it to within feet of the residence before he was apprehended. The Secret Service said he was not armed and the backpack contained no hazardous materials. The Secret Service told The Post that the agency “does not comment on an active investigation,” with spokesman Anthony Guglielmi later saying in a statement that further tests will be conducted to confirm that the substance is indeed cocaine.

Suspicious powder found at the White House was cocaine, sources say

In addition, the Department provides lifeguard, air and wildland, health hazardous materials, and forestry services throughout the County. Acting Deputy Fire Chief Mike Inman has worked as a fire service professional for over 39 years. Chief Inman started his career in 1983, as a reserve firefighter with the Monterey Park Fire Department. In 1986, he was hired as a firefighter with the County of Los Angeles Fire Department (LACoFD) and has promoted through the ranks as a firefighter paramedic, firefighter specialist, fire captain, battalion chief, and assistant fire chief. John R. Todd is a Registered Professional Forester in the State of California and he was employed as a forester by the Los Angeles County Fire Department from 1988 to 2012. In April 2012, John was promoted to the rank of deputy fire chief of the Prevention Services Bureau (PSB).

“The story about a bag of cocaine found in the president’s library is about a fathers [sic] love for his son,” tweeted Spectator contributing editor Stephen L. Miller. The Secret Service concluded its investigation into cocaine found in the West Wing of the White House after just 11 days without identifying a suspect. Authorities are trying to determine how the substance got into the White House after a Secret Service agent found the powder during a routine sweep of the premises. The West Wing is the administrative heart of the presidency and includes the Oval Office, the offices of executive staff, the Cabinet Room, the Roosevelt Room, and the press briefing room. The initial dispatch call stated that the white, powdery substance was found in the residence’s library on the ground floor of the building.

In October 1998, Mackey transferred to Fire Station 161 in Hawthorne and, 11 months later, was promoted to the rank of Fire Fighter Specialist. In February 2000, Mackey promoted to the rank of Fire Captain and was assigned to Fire Station 83 in Rancho Palos Verdes. In November 2006, Chief Mackey volunteered to head the Recruitment Unit where he managed over 50 recruiters who volunteered to give career presentations at high schools, colleges/universities, career fairs, and community events. In November 2010, Chief Mackey was promoted to the rank of Battalion Chief and was assigned to Battalion 10 in El Monte, and then Battalion 8 in Whittier. Two years later, Chief Mackey was re-assigned to the Employee Services Section where he worked directly for the Fire Chief.

Prior to joining the Fire Department, Chief Barrera devoted 16 years climbing the ranks in administrative services at the Los Angeles County Department of Public Social Services and Auditor-Controller. Chief Barrera received her Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from the University of Southern California. Any spill or unauthorized releases involving hazardous material or hazardous waste may require the services of State Certified Clean Up Companies to ensure the proper removal, handling, transportation, and disposal of the released material. It is the responsibility of the responsible party to pay all costs of the clean up services provided by the contractors and responding agencies.

For more than 28 years, Chief Harris has served as a member of the Department’s international Urban Search and Rescue Team. For more than four years, he served as the program manager of our elite rescue team and was the Department’s primary point-of-contact with our state, federal, and international partners. Acting Deputy Fire Chief Robert Harris started his career at the age of 19 after he was appointed reserve firefighter with the City of Montebello Fire Department. Fire Chief Anthony C. Marrone has been a chief officer for the past 25 years and a member of the County of Los Angeles Fire Department for 37 years. Prior to his executive appointment by the County of Los Angeles Board of Supervisors, Deputy Fire Chief Marrone recently served as Acting Chief Deputy over Business Operations and as Interim Fire Chief.

"The item was sent for further evaluation and an investigation into the cause and manner of how it entered the White House is pending," the Secret Service said. WASHINGTON - A suspicious substance that prompted a brief evacuation of the White House on Sunday was tested and found to be cocaine. Rumors circulated in April that Hunter Biden may have been crashing at the White House for a time to avoid being served with court papers by the mother of his love child.

The powder was removed for further testing which confirmed that narcotics had been found on the White House grounds but did not present a threat. “The DC Fire Department was called to evaluate and quickly determined the item to be non-hazardous. The item was sent for further evaluation and an investigation into the cause and manner of how it entered the White House is pending,” a statement by the Secret Service concluded.

By October 2022, Chief Ewald was then assigned to oversee the North Regional Operations Bureau. Acting Deputy Fire Chief William L. Mayfield Jr. is a 34-year veteran of the County of Los Angeles Fire Department. He has held the ranks of Fire Fighter, Fire Fighter Specialist, Fire Captain, Battalion Chief, and Assistant Fire Chief.

Research Safety

The dry, sunny climate and variable terrain of Southern California combine to create an environment where wildfires are a part of the natural ecosystem and an almost year-round occurrence. This ecosystem fosters a diverse fire-adapted community of plants and animals. Although human caused wildfires far outnumber naturally occurring wildfires within Los Angeles County, both have the potential to create situations where structures in the Wildland Urban Interface can be at risk. All vegetation will burn, even though irrigation has created a deceptively lush landscape of ornamental plants.

In addition, masons’ multi-point adjustable suspension scaffold connections shall be designed by an engineer experienced in such scaffold design. Inspectors commonly use internal scaffolding or other temporary structures for internal inspections, like those performed inside huge industrial boilers or pressure vessels, as well as for external inspections. Regardless of the specific inspection, the use of the scaffolding is the same—it allows inspectors to stand at height and conduct various types of testing in order to satisfy inspection requirements. Fall protection is a key component of scaffold safety, as falls rank among the leading causes of workplace injuries and fatalities in the construction industry. OSHA requires fall protection for workers on scaffolds higher than 10 feet off the ground. Scaffolds shall be erected, moved, dismantled, or altered only under the supervision and direction of a competent person qualified in scaffold erection, moving, dismantling or alteration.

Back to Basics: Scaffolding Safety

These three words are found in regulations, standards, codes and manufacturers’ recommendations. They have the most influence when used in mandatory regulations, such as the federal Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) regulations. Unfortunately, the terms are not always understood by those who use them, particularly when attempting to understand and apply the regulations.

The Dangers of Working on Scaffolding

Such activities shall be performed only by experienced and trained employees selected for such work by the competent person. OSHA requires that all scaffolds be inspected prior to each workshift by a competent person, that is, an individual who can identify hazards and has the authority to do something about it. OSHA requires that all scaffolds shall be erected, dismantled or modified only under the supervision of a competent person, qualified in scaffold erection, dismantling or modification. OSHA defines a scaffold as an elevated, temporary work platform, of which there are two basic types. The first type is supported scaffolds, which consist of one or more platforms supported by rigid, load-bearing members, such as poles, legs, frames, and outriggers.

This determination shall be based on site conditions and the type of scaffold being erected or dismantled. Hook-on or attachable ladders shall be installed as soon as scaffold erection has progressed to a point that permits safe installation and use. (g)(2) – Effective September 2, 1997, the employer shall have a competent person determine the feasibility and safety of providing fall protection for employees erecting or dismantling supported scaffolds. Employers are required to provide fall protection for employees erecting or dismantling supported scaffolds where the installation and use of such protection is feasible and does not create a greater hazard. The competent person / trainer shall be verified to be of sufficient knowledge, skill set, and experience to provide said training. The department will designate, identify, and provide training for competent persons within the department.

"Large area scaffold" means a pole scaffold, tube and coupler scaffold, systems scaffold, or fabricated frame scaffold erected over substantially the entire work area. The disappointing reality in the scaffold industry is that too often training is offered by those who have marginal qualifications to do so. Since there is no licensing program that verifies the instructor is qualified, be sure to carefully choose your instructor.

A tube and coupler scaffold has a platform(s) supported by tubing, and is erected with coupling devices connecting uprights, braces, bearers and runners. Due to their strength, these scaffolds are frequently used where heavy loads need to be carried, or where multiple platforms must reach several stories high. These scaffolds can be assembled in multiple directions, making them the preferred option for work surfaces with irregular dimensions and/or contours. Beyond the obvious safety aspects, there are other important reasons why OSHA requires a competent person for scaffolding. Scaffolding is a necessary component for many construction job sites; however, it can pose a serious threat to workers.

Office of Environmental Health and Safety

The above evaluations and/or recommendations are for general guidance only and should not be relied upon for medical advice or legal compliance purposes. They are based solely on the information provided to us and relate only to those conditions specifically discussed. We do not make any warranty, expressed or implied, that your workplace is safe or healthful or that it complies with all laws, regulations or standards. Drones like Flyability's Elios 3 (shown above) can fly up to locations at height to collect high quality visual data, allowing inspectors to reduce or even fully eliminate the need to work on scaffolding or on ropes. A supported scaffold can have many forms, each of which serves a specific purpose.

Scaffolding workers

Before beginning dismantling procedures, reconstruct and/or stabilize the scaffold as necessary. Unless someone is physically watching and monitoring a scaffold 24/7, a wide range of circumstances could compromise its integrity. For example, after the workers have gone home, an errant vehicle could have accidentally bumped up against the scaffold, causing damage that would otherwise have gone unnoticed. And, as an added plus, the parts and pieces can be assembled with minimal expertise and knowledge! For some workers, whether it conforms with applicable design parameters and regulations appears to be of little to no importance. In trestle scaffolding, a tripod or portable scaffold board provides a platform for laborers to work from.

Vision and OSHA Top 10 Violations

Certain regulations require the expertise of a qualified Professional Engineer because there are times where verification of knowledge and experience is required. Users relying on assistive technology can access the Guide content.by downloading instructions and a set of Excel files that contain all of the content in the guide. The California Occupational Guides provide detailed information on California wages, job outlook, education, and licensing requirements for approximately 800 occupations. The Guides offer students and jobseekers occupational information to assist with making informed career choices. (d)(10) – Ropes shall be inspected for defects by a competent person prior to each workshift and after every occurrence which could affect a rope’s integrity. When dismantling the scaffold, check to ensure that the scaffold has not been structurally altered in a way that would make it unsafe.

Makeshift devices, such as, but not limited to, boxes and barrels, shall not be used on top of scaffold platforms to increase the working level height of employees. Ladders shall not be used on scaffolds to increase the working level height of employees, except on large area scaffolds. OSHA requires that all scaffolds shall be designed by a qualified person, an individual who can demonstrate the ability to design scaffolds correctly. (f)(3) – Scaffolds and scaffold components shall be inspected for visible defects by a competent person before each work shift, and after any occurrence which could affect a scaffold’s structural integrity.

To this day, scaffolding remains one of the most useful and efficient ways for people to work at height. Peoples as diverse as Nubians, Egyptians, and Chinese have documented the use of scaffolding for constructing tall buildings, using rudimentary scaffolds made of wood and tied at the top with ropes. Incidents involving scaffolding account for 4,500 workplace injuries and 50 deaths per year.

These temporary structures are often used in constructing, maintaining, or repairing buildings, bridges, and other man-made structures by supporting work crews and materials. Scaffolding is a temporary structure that is typically made from metal poles and wood planks and used to support construction workers, inspectors, cleaners, and others who need to work at height. Scaffolds and scaffold components shall be inspected for visible defects by a competent person before each work shift, and after any occurrence, which could affect a scaffold's structural integrity. Any part of a scaffold damaged or weakened such that its strength is significantly weakened shall be immediately repaired or replaced, braced, or removed from service until repaired. Many times, workers are required to construct the scaffolding they are going to work on while in other areas the scaffolding will be constructed for them.

Improperly built structures or unsafe use, however, can lead to serious injury or even death. The best solution for a particular job will depend on factors such as the loads that will be present on work platforms, providing workers with safe access and fall protection, and the number of work levels. On scaffolds where scaffold planks are abutted to create a long platform, each abutted end shall rest on a separate support surface. This provision does not preclude the use of common support members such as "T" sections, to support abutting planks, or hook on platforms designed to rest on common supports. On scaffolds where platforms are overlapped to create a long platform, the overlap shall occur only over supports, and shall not be less than 12 inches unless the platforms are nailed together or otherwise restrained to prevent movement. OSHA requires that each suspension rope, including connecting hardware, for non-adjustable or adjustable suspension scaffolds should be capable of supporting at least six times the maximum intended load applied or transmitted to that rope without failure.

Each employee on a scaffold more than 10 feet above a lower level must have fall protection to keep them from falling to that lower level. A competent person must determine the feasibility and safety of providing fall protection for employees erecting and dismantling supported scaffolds. Employers are also required to provide fall protection for employees erecting or dismantling supported scaffolds where the installation and use of such protection is feasible and does not create a greater hazard. Effective September 1997, employees erecting or dismantling supported scaffolds shall be provided with a safe means of access where the provision of safe access is feasible and does not create a greater hazard. The employer shall have a competent person determine whether it is feasible or would pose a greater hazard to provide, and have employees use a safe means of access.

In certain instances, the design of scaffolds requires the expertise of a Professional Engineer, such as for tubular welded frame scaffolds exceeding 125 feet in height. Since that regulation also requires that the scaffold be constructed and loaded in accordance with that design, this means the scaffold erector and user must be trained. The primary difference is that a competent person may be able to identify a hazard but may not have the knowledge to determine a solution in order to mitigate the hazard; the qualified person can give the competent person that solution.

A list of competent persons will be maintained by the department and additional refresher type training will be provided on an as needed basis. The periodicity of this training to be determined by EHS and the department’s management, but should not exceed a period of 5 years from the previous training. The department also to provide competent person with document indicating that they are competent persons representing their respective departments and shall agree to uphold all local, state, and federal rules and regulations as they relate to scaffolding.

AKA Sushi presents a fine dining experience in a newly expanded and renovated kitchen and dining room. Our innovative menu brings a unique take to Traditional Japanese Cuisine as well as several classics. Bar seating offers the experience of watching our sushi chefs create dishes before your eyes.

Nearby Hotels

Dinners are served from Wednesday to Saturday at 7 p.m., priced at $280 per person before tax, drinks, and tip. Leona’s Sushi House in Sherman Oaks goes into the former La Loggia space with proprietor Frank Leon and sushi pro Shigenori Fujimoto, previously of Asanebo and Shiki. Awarded a Michelin star within a few months of opening, this rarefied omakase counter from chef Seigo Tamura is one of the top sushi restaurants to open in Los Angeles in the past few years. The 20-course tastings that cost $350 per person include a proper mix of prepared dishes, such as ankimo (monkfish liver) and Japanese hairy crab, and sushi, like umami-rich kohada (gizzard shad) and seared anago (sea eel).

Restaurants

Our large dining room can accommodate both groups and small parties. Shin Sushi brings a refined omakase experience from chef Taketoshi Azumi, whom patrons refer to as Take-san. The Michelin-starred omakase includes an appetizer, miso soup, and 14 pieces of sushi. This counter-only restaurant in Little Tokyo costs $300 a person and serves a truly spectacular dinner comparable to the best around the world. Sister restaurant Bar Sawa offers a more affordable omakase next door with cocktail pairings to boot. Los Angeles has a plethora of culinary strong suits, like regional Chinese and tacos of all stripes, but the city’s variety and quality of sushi are nearly as impressive.

Chef's specials include shimeji risotto or whole baked branzino with sake. Sushi Note in Sherman Oaks expanded to this underground location at the front of a valet stand, joining the ranks of unlikely but still terrific sushi destinations in Los Angeles. Helmed by Earl Aguilar, who trained under Note’s Kiminobu Saito, this $190 omakase meal is offered at a small bar or at a few small tables. Like with Note in the Valley, this omakase experience is best with the restaurant wine pairings, which puts terrific wine pours that amplify each piece’s flavor profile. Head to Michelin-starred counter Inaba for chef Yasuhiro Hirano’s impeccable array of sushi served at a six-seat counter within I-naba.

Liao’s market in Sherman Oaks specializes in dry-aged fish, though the offerings at Uoichiba aren’t necessarily of that style. Instead, cuts like tuna, kanpachi, steelhead trout, and blue crab salad are served with seasoned rice either a la carte or as lunch-sized omakase meals. In possibly a first for LA, an Austin-based Japanese restaurant splashes on the West Coast as a notable sushi opening. Inspired by LA’s own Nobu and Katsuya, among others, chef Tyson Cole opens a suave and already bustling lounge in the heart of West Hollywood serving a tightly edited array of Japanese dishes. Sushi remains an important part of Uchi, and the preparations offer a thoughtful departure from classic Edo-style sushi that still preserves the restaurant’s high-quality fish.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

This hip spot has a variety of distinctive spaces that lure creative types and beautiful people. Chef Shigenori Fujimoto has teamed up with Frank Leon and Evan Ross on a Japanese fusion menu that never misses a beat. Dishes are often irreverent, as in rich and savory udon carbonara with paper thin smoked pork belly, creamy egg and parmigiano; and the sticky-sweet oxtail-stuffed bao is craveworthy. Seafood is impressive, whether it's ceviche or sashimi-quality halibut bathed in a ponzu sauce vinaigrette.

Location

It’s not often that a high-end omakase restaurant resides at the street level, but that’s the case with Sakurako, which comes from Sushi Enya founder Kimiyasu Enya. Enya brings on three talented chefs who trained in Japan, with head chef Akira Yoshida preparing the heart of Sakurako’s nigiri array. Master chef Tatsuki Kurugi composes kaiseki-style appetizers and sashimi courses while pastry chef Shota Takaki finishes the meal with a thoughtful, fine dining-level dessert.

Settle into 15 pieces of terrific sushi that impress even the snobbiest of sushi-goers — the varieties of fish range from familiar cuts to more obscure ones. Sushi Tama opened in August 2020 with a sleek counter and impeccable nigiri using Japanese-sourced fish. Chef Hideyuki Yoshimoto worked for years in Tokyo’s Tsukiji Market before partnering with Showa Hospitality at this stylish sushi destination in a chic part of West Hollywood/Beverly Grove.

Nearly every corner of the city — the Valley, the Westside, the San Gabriel Valley, and the South Bay — lays claim to an incredible sushi counter with a veritable master at the helm. There are also casual experiences like hand rolls and old-school takeout spots that reflect the breadth of LA’s sushi culture. AKA Sushi now offers a full bar of beer, wine, cocktails and saki. Priced at just $75 per person, the omakase from Hirofumi “Gen” Sakamoto offers one of the best deals in town.

Expect near-perfect quality nigiri and Nakao’s careful construction and proper balance between fish and rice at these prices. This iconic sushi restaurant in Little Tokyo is consistently packed at the bar and in the dining room. Most come for the unbelievably priced lunch sashimi special, but order directly from the menu or at the bar for an even better experience. The expansive selection of nigiri sushi and sashimi never fails to please. The Joint Seafood founder Liwei Liao opened this casual handroll counter modeled after Kazunori serving high-grade fish in a parade of seaweed-wrapped creations.

Think strawberry XO-sauce and basil-bud olive oil over namahotate (day boat scallop) over rice. Quality is top-tier, with two kinds of rice and all the freshest fish available. This unassuming spot in Arcadia has a versatile lunch sushi set from chef Hiro Yamada (Sushi Gen, Shiki).

The sub-$40 lunch special comes with nine pieces of nigiri, a cut roll, miso soup, and a few small bites. The price jumps up at dinner, where most opt for the more elaborate, Edomae-style omakase. Sushi chef Morihiro Onodera founded the celebrated Mori in West LA before helming the counters at Inn Ann and Shiki over the past few years. Onodera finally has his own omakase restaurant in Atwater Village, with masterful preparations and world-class sushi. The price tag to see Onodera in action is $400 per person at the counter though dinners are a more approachable $250 at a table.

What sets Bear's beautiful UI design apart is its thoughtful explainer video that guides users through its features. This proactive approach ensures that functionalities don't confuse users. The platform ensures that its users don't spend unnecessary minutes figuring out the platform but instead dive right into productivity. Zoom's industry solutions interface is a prime example of amazing user interface design. The platform shows a clear dedication to simplifying communication.

Best Practices for Exceptional UI Examples

This design software is quite different than the rest of the tools available. It allows designers to build elements that interact with each other. With a prototype, collaborative effort, HTML imports, and more, UXPin UX/UI design software assists all-scale enterprises in structuring applications and creating site wireframes.

User Experience Stack Exchange

They serve as a blueprint for the design, helping you get clear on the placement of elements, information hierarchy, and overall flow before diving into the visual design. You might want to start getting creative from the get-go, but the first step in the UI design process is wrapping your head around the project. Answering these questions will help you build a solid foundation for the project. In this guide, we’ll walk through each step of the UI design process, including tips, tools, and best practices to get you started with UI design. But it’s important to keep sight of your objectives, and a designer’s personal satisfaction should always be way down the bottom of this list. This UX website contains guides, tools, and frameworks that can help you design and launch products the lean way.

Top 10 UI UX Design Software for Designers in 2023

Boldare Boards is an online collaboration app for remote teams and their entire UI design is bursting with personality. This is a truly powerful UI design you simply have to experience for yourself. So this would be an ideal opportunity to create a component – specifically, a heading + text + button combination. Notice how I've created a neutral light 'card' backdrop to enable the use of the branded button. This is how we make our design flexible while obeying our rules and maintaining consistency.

Current app’s color palette

They don’t have to attempt designs themselves or hire an external designer, reducing frustration and saving time and money.

II. UX/UI best practices

One of the most basic UI design concepts to master is simply being consistent. Across your own platform—but also with industry standards employed elsewhere. Good UI design projects don’t reinvent the wheel; they improve on it. All superfluous growth should be cut away, leaving only those elements that are absolutely necessary. If part of your UI design serves no practical purpose for the user, but only satisfies your own creative fancy, it shouldn’t be there.

According to a study of the Google Play Store, most apps lose 77% of users within the first three days. As the user interface is one of the first touchpoints where interaction happens, UI design is one of the most influential factors in user activation and adoption. Good website UI design is characterized by several key factors, including clear navigation, consistent branding, user-friendly layouts, fast loading times, and accessibility. It should also be visually appealing and easy to use, with intuitive controls and clear feedback.

The design comes up with two crucial aspects, i.e., User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX). UI design software is essential for every designer as it helps them navigate through the entire project, from brainstorming sketches to drawing and creating wireframes or prototypes. UI UX design software is constantly evolving, and now every stage of designing has various supporting tools. But, as ample options are available, designers must consider some major parameters to choose the best UI UX design software.

This way, you can easily revert to previous versions if needed and understand the evolution of your designs. It also prevents the overwriting of work, which can be a common issue when collaborating remotely. By having a robust version control system, you ensure that every team member's contributions are recorded and valued. Now that the list is in front of you choose the best suitable design tool and get started immediately. Facebook originally developed this outstanding tool to offer designers the best UI UX design services.

The UI design is clean and simple, with a neutral color scheme and logically structured menus with helpful articles. This makes it easy for users to quickly sift through resources, find what’s useful for them, and ignore what isn’t. Menus provide all relevant information at a glance, reducing a user’s short-term memory load and enabling them to use the product faster. The use of empty states and one + icon in the center of the page invites users to create a new project. These are just a few of my favorite examples of good website UI design. Creating a usable, frictionless UI is an essential part of creating a positive connection with a user, not to mention making sure that it’s a user-centered design.

Each category has various goals and action items that you can follow to get closer to the objective set out in its title. The majority of contributors are senior designers, so you know that the advice comes from experience. However, if you’re not fond of newsletters, you can just bookmark their website and check it from time to time, as they publish every issue online. Each issue is filled with UX/UI design-related articles and resources. Designlab has a superb blog covering current hot topics in the realm of UX. They also create in-depth guides that can be helpful to juniors and seniors alike.

And as He empowers you to persevere through life’s struggles, may you confidently communicate God’s vibrant hope to others — shining His eternal light on the lost. Baptism is the outward sign of what God has already done in the individual's life and is a public testimony that the person now belongs to Christ. It is identifying with the death and resurrection of Jesus and is done in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Lord's Supper is a commemoration of the death of the Lord and is done in remembrance of Him until He comes again; it is a sign of our participation in Him.

Jakes founded The Potter’s House (TPH), a non-denominational, multicultural church and global humanitarian organization, in Dallas, Texas. The church has since expanded to include more than 30,000 members, with more than 50 diverse ministries. TPH campuses are also present in Frisco and Fort Worth, Texas, as well as Denver, Colorado.

• The Christian life is to be one of consecration, devotion, and holiness. The shortcomings of the individual are because of the still progressing sanctification of the saints. The Christian life is filled with trials, tests, and warfare against a spiritual enemy. For those abiding in Christ until their deaths or His return, the promises of eternal blessing in the presence of God are assured. Christian Fellowship Ministries is a National and International Fellowship of over 3200 churches in 125+ nations.

It contains all that is needed for guidance in godliness and practical Christian conduct. • The Holy Spirit is God, the Lord, and giver of life, who was active in the Old Testament, and given to the Church in fullness at Pentecost. He empowers the saints for service and witness, cleanses man from the old nature, and conforms us to the image of Christ. He was together with the Father and the Holy Spirit from the beginning, and through Him all things were made. He left Heaven and became incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary; henceforth, He is forever one Christ with two natures--God and man--in one Person. He created man in His own image for fellowship, and called man back to Himself through Christ after the rebellion and fall of man.

Classes will be led by various TPH pastors on specific topics designed to cultivate a deeper, intentional relationship with God. • Christ's vicarious death on the cross paid the penalty for the sins of the whole world. Its benefits of healing (body, soul, and spirit) are provided for in the atonement as well. • In the Bible containing the Old and New Testament is alone the only infallible, inspired Word of God, and that its authority is ultimate, final, and eternal. It cannot be added to, subtracted from, or superseded in any regard. The Bible is the source of all doctrine, instruction, correction, and reproof.

Her writing is not only an exploration of travel and cruising; it is a testament to her zest for life, her commitment to family, and her love for the ocean.

Much like Judith, her family shares her enthusiasm for the sea, often accompanying her on cruise adventures and enriching her articles with their unique perspectives.

I'll probably wear this on our upcoming cruise, although I'm going to try out a dark pink that I just bought.

Seaside glamor is the name of the game with these nails, where a nude base with golden starfish, gems, and pearls mimics the sandy beach.

You can choose a nail color based on the weather at your destination and the reason you’re going. Now’s the time to play with nail art, decals, and anything else you might be too nervous to try in everyday life.
