The first thing you notice when you enter a house, are the walls. You are instantly attracted to the things displayed proudly on the white washed walls. However, if the walls are blank as a new notebook, you don't feel as attracted to the household at all. This is because wall decor gives a sense of attractiveness and the sense of home'. If you have a blank wall and have no idea what to do with it, fret not. Here are some spectacular wall decorating ideas for the perfect makeover! First of all, the best wall decor you could buy are paintings. They catch the eye and give an artistic perspective to your home. It also permits the air of sophisticated and elegance and if you have an artistic streak that you would like to explore, you can promote your painting by simply hanging them for a great show. Now who doesn't like photographs? Another innovative idea is to simply hang pictures up in frames. You can arrange them to form different shapes like a circle or triangle. If you get bored you can quickly replace the photographs within the frame and spice up your home once again. On the same note, there is an idea such as splicing a photograph floating around. All you need to do is enlarge an image, split it into three parts, fill it in three frames and voila! Your wall is filled with a huge picture. Another simple yet brilliant idea is to buy a huge bookshelf that covers the width and height of your blank wall. There you can fill it with books as well as little trinkets. It gives a museum kind of look with every eye-catchers on display. You can even fill it with vases containing flowers if you like or light up candles. Mirror, mirror on the wall, is this another decor idea after all? Mirrors are an amazing yet classic way to fill up a wall. Not only do they reflect sunlight and look beautiful, but also allow you to make sure not a hair is out of place. Last but not the least, tapestries. Tapestries can be found at galleries or art shows. Rugs are often hung up as well, like tapestries, and who can blame them. Rugs are often to beautiful to be trampled upon, hence they can be used as showpieces. And once it is sour for your taste you can use it for its actual purpose - a rug! These are some simple yet elegant ways for your wall. Stupendous interiors makes a great living!

Are you worried that your decision to buy a used car, and not spring for a new one will affect your ability to get financing for your purchase? Well, you shouldn't be! A lot of banks and financial institutions out there offer good rates on financing for used car purchases, given certain parameters like the age of the car in question, and of course, your own personal credit history. But the current trend in used car auto financing over the first quarter in 2017 suggests that you can expect to pay between 4.88% and 4.91% interest rates on your used car financing. The variations of course depend on the length of the loan, though the standard term for a used car loan seems to be 36 months, or 3 years. But one can also find 60 and 48 month length of finance options for used car purchases. The city and state you reside in and are purchasing from, will also affect your loan and finance options. Bank of America (which is currently advertising a 2.89% rate of interest on a 60-month used car loan for a purchase from a dealer) and US Bank (which is offering 2.87% as its lowest rate of interest on a 36-month financing for a used car) both claim to offer highly competitive rates of interest and equivalent terms, be it for a new or used car. Both banks are also offering up to 100% or even more of the car value as the loan amount, for a total of $100,000. And one is not restricted to purchasing only from a dealer, though that will definitely offer the best interest rate options. Private purchases from an owner will also be entertained and finance provided. While other banks may not offer such terms, Chase and Capital One are other well-known banks that do offer decent terms. Capital One, in fact, has offers online from around 2.9%, though the terms and conditions will only come to light when one actually goes through the application process or the pre-approval online process. There also appears to be minimal change in rate between the shorter 3 year and longer 5 year loans for used cars. So, be armed with the right information before you head to the dealership or bank and you should have no problems getting competitive used car finance rates and finally financing for the purchase of your used car.

Anyone who has a breast tissue can develop breast cancer. However, not many even know that male breast cancer exists. Male breast cancer is a rare disease as women suffer from breast cancer the most, but it does occur in men too. Older men are more prone to male breast cancer but it can occur at any age. Just like most types of cancers, male breast cancer too can be cured if diagnosed at an early stage. But since it's a rare disease, many people don't take the symptoms seriously to get themselves checked. According to some statistics based on a study on cancer, nearly 2,470 cases of breast cancer in men are likely to get diagnosed by the end of 2017. This type of cancer carries a chance of one in one thousand among men in America. Similar to any other cancers, male breast cancer too has four stages where its curable up till the second stage and involves brain, lungs, liver, and bone by the fourth stage making the illness fatal. Breast size in men is smaller as compared to women and that makes it easy to diagnose cancer or tumor in male breasts, but the tumor can be confused with general stiffness of the chest. Men under 35 rarely suffer from breast cancer. It usually affects older men, but not always. There are certain risk factors of cancer in male breasts that include breast cancer in a close female relative, consuming estrogen, exposure to radiation in the chest area, liver disease (if severe can cause breast cancer), and testicle disease(s). The seriousness of breast cancer in men was thought to be higher as compared to breast cancer in women; however, it turned out to be the same in both cases. The only reason some considered it more fatal was because the symptoms of men breast cancer is not known or recognized easily. The hardness of the chest/breast in men makes it hard to recognize any dissimilar stiffness in case of tumor leading to ignorance towards the symptoms and reaching the later stage of male breast cancer. Mammogram; breast ultrasound; MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) of the breast; nipple discharge exam; biopsy: fine needle aspiration biopsy, core needle biopsy, surgical biopsy, lymph node biopsy, lymph node dissection, and sentinel lymph node biopsy are some of the exams done to examines and evaluate breast cancer or disease related to the breast.

A heel spur is a bone growth that develops on the heel bone, specifically on the underside of the bone. It happens due to calcium deposit that causes a bony protrusion of nearly half-inch to develop on the heel bone. The calcium deposition occurs gradually over months. An extreme, persistent strain on the ligaments and foot muscles, repeated instances of heel bone membrane tearing, and plantar fascia stretching are some of the common causes of heel spur. Also known as help spur syndrome, the condition is detected and diagnosed based on X-ray test results. Painless, heel spurs are often associated with plantar fasciitis. Heel spur relief treatment options include cortisone injections, anti-inflammatory medications, exercise, customized orthotics and so on. In certain cases, surgery may be required. Here are a few effective treatments for help spur relief:

• Stretching exercises: If the heel pain persists for more than a pain, consult a physiotherapist. The therapist will recommend a set of stretching exercises that will help to provide heel spur relief by alleviating the pain. The goal of such physical therapy is to treat and give relief from plantar fasciitis, which aggravates the symptoms of heel spur.
• Orthotics and shoe recommendations: Orthotic devices are used to correct biomechanical imbalances that cause arch and heel pain. The devices such as heel cushions, heel pads, insoles, shoe inserts, and special orthotic shoes give relief from the excess pressure exerted on heels and the Achilles tendon. Such devices also control additional movements that put a strain on the plantar fasciitis ligament. Special shoes help to alleviate the effects on inflammation on the tendons and muscles of the heel.
• Anti-inflammation medications: Most often heel spur is caused due to plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis occurs due to inflammation of the plantar fascia that is located at the bottom of the foot. Popular over-the-counter medications such as naproxen, acetaminophen, and acetaminophen are often used to get heel spur relief. It is recommended that a doctor is consulted before taking any medications. Doctors may also suggest cortisone injections to alleviate the symptoms of pain.
• Surgery: When none of the non-invasive heel spur treatments work, doctors may recommend surgery. Surgery is done in only 10% of the cases since most people get heel spur relief from conservative treatments. Surgeries are done to release stress from the plantar fascia or to remove the spur. Post surgery, a person may be required to use surgical shoes, crutches, bandages, splints, and so on.

Service dogs are dogs that are specially trained to aid individuals with disabilities in performing certain tasks. For instance, service dogs help people with visual and hearing impairment in navigation, help people suffering from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) to calm down during anxiety attack and protecting a person having a seizure attack. Service dogs are categorized as working animals. Some of the dog breeds that are suitable for working as service dogs include Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers and German Shepherds due to their temperaments. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), you are entitled to get a service dog if you have a disability or a mental illness that prevents you from performing major activities. The ADA ensures that certified service dogs are not denied access to public areas such as restaurants, air travel, hotels or housing complexes as long as they are well behaved and housebroken. Under the law, any dog can become a service dog, as long as it is trained to be a working animal and not a pet. By certifying your service dog, you will get the required documentation to allow you and you service dog, access to public places without questioning. Certified service dogs are required to wear a vest or a tag for identification, so that the public are aware of their role. Especially during air travel, airline companies look for the identification tag and vest to confirm if a dog is a service dog. When you do an online search for registering your service dog, you will find a number of service animal registries. You need to be extremely careful while making a choice as some companies charge exorbitantly, while others just cheat you off your money. It is always advisable to conduct a thorough research to ensure a company is legitimate. The US Dog Registry has a three-step registration that is easy and secure. You just have to pick one service dog kit that best suits your needs, provide all the necessary information and submit the form for it to get processed. Note that your service dog must pass the Public Access Test to get a certification. This test is taken to ensure that the certified animal is well-behaved and stable around the public. It is taken to demonstrate that the handler has a control over his/her service dog and that it doesn't harm others.
