Blackview bv8000: World‘ Best Prepared Strong Smart Phone Released!



Blackview strong smart phone series has always been rated among the best strong mobile phones with reasonable cost and excellent strong abilities. The newest accessory for the Series was the world’s slimmest strong system, BV7000 Pro, that satisfied everyone with its amazing style when it was published. But now’s here we are at the next-gen to take over, so here comes the Blackview bv8000.
DESIGN and DISPLAY

It is evident that the Blackview bv8000 is a strong cellphone since it is dense and large but I have to say this is one of the best-designed and well-built strong Blackview Phone I’ve examined so far.
We have a 5” 1080p show, which is distinct and brilliant and it is shiny enough for outside and inside use. Also, it is enclosed in the Gorilla Cup 3 for the beginning level of resistance.

Just above the show, we have an 8MP shooting for selfies. It is excellent that we have a multicolor and personalized LED observe light, and perfectly backlit capacitive important factors. You can personalize the SOS information in the configurations selection.

On the right, there is a one level digital camera shutter key. There is also a side set up finger marks scanning device that I discovered to be fairly precise but not the quickest I’ve seen. As for optics, we are looking at a 16MP shooting that is along with only one LED display. The speaker top quality is just excellent and the quantity outcome is very good.

HARDWARE and PERFORMANCE

When it comes to components, the Blackview bv8000 is one of the most effective price range strong mobile phones out there. Blackview Phone delivers with an octa-core MTK6757 processor (2.3GHz), 6GB of RAM and 64GB of extended storage space.

The game playing efficiency is just excellent. All the 3D activities perform without any problems even if you perform them on the very maximum design configurations, which is amazing for an inexpensive cellphone. Lastly, I didn’t observe any heating up problems.

USER INTERFACE

Blackview Phone delivers with Android operating system 7.0 out of the box but we have an intensely personalized Blackview’s skin on top of it that changes the looks, eliminates the app plate and contributes some specs. For example, are often release you by pushing a power key twice? Also, you can transform the shades of the observe LED light, use some action and movement manages that perform fairly well or use one hand function method.

There is also a built-in tool kit that has some applications like an audio gauge, compass, percolate level, digital pedometer. I can’t look at the truth of these resources but I think they are quite precise. There are some other awesome functions and personalization choices to have fun with but what is the most important to me is the rate and fluidity of the customer interface. I’ve set up a lot of applications on this cellphone and I’m yet to see it lag, thanks to 6GB of RAM.

Discover the Top 12 Low-Cost DIY Gardening Projects Made with Consumer Recycled Plastic



Consumer recycled plastic is easy to find! Also, it's typically super-affordable (often, it's free!) and it allows gardeners to get really creative! This material may be utilized in order to give a garden more charm, functionality and visual impact. Today, we'd like to share the top 12 low-cost DIY gardening projects made with consumer recycled plastic.

Try one or more of these ideas in order to change it up in your own home garden.

1.) Make a Garden Bird Feeder

A clean plastic container may be re-purposed and turned into a bird feeder for the garden. Just cut a slot in the centre, add a piece of smooth and sanded wood, which will be a place for birds to perch as they feed, and then fill the container (lid on) with birdseed.

2.) Use Plastic Gravel Grids Under Flower Beds

Plastic gravel grids are interlocking squares which are made from recycled plastic. When placed under flower beds, below the soil, they add strength and help to create a surface which is weed-resistant. You'll find these handy grids online for affordable prices.
3.) Make Planters to Big Plastic Containers

If you have big, empty plastic containers lying around, wash them out to remove product residue and then cut the tops off. When you do, you'll be able to make budget-friendly planters in no time flat.

4.) Use Plastic Planks for Garden Borders

A nice border made from plastic planks which look like wood will give your garden definition and more visual impact.  

5.) Layer Old Tired and Use as Planters

Old tires are fairly easy to find. While they aren't plastic, they are recycled rubber and that's close enough. Paint them bright colours and then layer them on soil. Add flowers to create a creative flower bed which is different and fun to look at.

6.) Create An Easy Herb Garden

When you cut the tops off of smaller plastic containers and then plant herbs in them, you'll be able to create a charming and practical herb garden quickly, without investing in compact planters.

7.) Create a Garden Pathway

A pathway which winds through your garden will make it easier for you and visitors to see the sights. Create one by mapping out the pathway, ordering plastic paving grids and then putting them under a layer of soil. Then, border the pathway if desired. The plastic paving grids will add tons of stability and contribute to an even surface. They will also deter weed growth.

8.) Make Novelty Planters With Plastic Bottles

If you love gardens which have a touch (or more than a touch!) of kitschy charm, then why not turn your old plastic drink bottles into planters with cute animal faces? Cut the tops off the planters. Then, add facial details, such as pig's snouts and piggy eyes, with buttons, plastic drink lid caps or whatever else you have on hand. Fill with soil and add seeds or flowers. 

9.) Make a Garden Dream catcher

If you have transparent plastic lying around, cut it into feather shapes and then paint the feathers with sheer, bright colours. String the feathers onto a circular base, by hanging them below the base with fishing wire. When the light catches your plastic feathers, they'll light up the way that stained glass does. This is a great way to add a welcome shot of colour and symbolism to a garden. Dream catchers are supposed to keep bad dream away!
10.) Make Seed Starter Pots

Cutting two litre plastic bottles in half and using the bottom halves as seed starter planters will be a smart way to ensure that your seedlings are ready to be planted at the perfect time. You may keep the planters in a shed or other sheltered area and then transfer them to your garden when it's time to plant. Just remove the soil and seedlings and then put them where you want them to be. Save the plastic planters for the next round of seed nurturing.

11.) Create a Ground-Level Patio in Your Garden

If you love to lounge, surrounded by your plants and flowers, why not put plastic paving grids under a square area of soil which is big enough for a chaise-longue and an end table. Make it even bigger if you want to entertain. Once you've laid the plastic paving grids down and covered them with a thin layer of pebbles, add soil. Then, add a lounger, a frosty drink and yourself!

12.) Decorate a Fence with Recycled Plastic

If you have a fence or trellis which is quite bare and plain, jazz it up with some plastic discs that you've cut to size from old plastic containers. Paint the discs in your favourite colours and string them together. Affix them to the fence or trellis. They'll resemble wind chimes, without the noise.

Bathroom is a very important place in any household and if you are planning to renovate your bathroom then make sure that everyone feels comfortable while using this room. Therefore, while renovating your bathroom following mistakes must be avoided.

Avoid overspending

This usually happens if you do not plan your entire requirement before undertaking the renovation work. Besides that, by following these tips you can certainly reduce your expenses considerably.

·         Use standard fixtures and fitting instead of ordering for customised bathroom fixtures
·         You must watch sales campaign of various vendors where during certain period they offer discounts for various bathroom items like sanitary ware, cabinets, tap ware, tiles etc. Prefer to buy these items in advance to save some money.
·         Try to sell your old fixtures and fittings so that you can get some returns from your scrap items.
·         Avoid the location of various bathroom facilities to avoid additional expense of piping.

Avoid poor ventilation

If there is not enough light and air inside the bathroom then the humidity present in the bathroom may dampen your walls and ceilings. It can also give rise to formation of moulds in due course of time. You must install proper exhaust fan if you do not have enough room to have wide window space.

Avoid overcrowding the bathroom

It is necessary that you must design your space for maximising space in a small bathroom so that you may not overcrowd this room with too many accessories. You must make sure that you get sufficient amount of horizontal space inside the bathroom so that your movement is not restricted due to overcrowding. Placement of door in right location can also create sufficient space in the bathroom.

Avoid poor lighting

Good lighting inside the bathroom will enable you to do shaving and waxing and doing various other makeup activities. You must also erect a large mirror so that it can reflect the light inside the bathroom to increase the visibility inside.

Avoid installing additional bathtub

If you already have a bathtub installed, then avoid creating any additional one as most of the time it will remain unutilized and your bathroom will lose considerable amount of horizontal space.

Avoid poor drainage

Make sure that your bathroom remains dry when it is not under use. Therefore, it is necessary that the drainage system inside the bathroom must be very effective. While installing floor tiles, special care must be given about their levelling so that no water remains held up in any place for a long time. Poor drainage can cause formation of bacteria, moulds etc.

Avoid using cheap accessories

Make sure that you install good quality accessories that last for several years. They should not only look good, but also be made from any well reputed manufacturer, who offers guarantee about their performance.

Not sufficient storage space

Sufficient amount of storage space is very essential in every bathroom so that you can store all your toiletry items in proper way. There should be enough cabinets available in the bathroom.

Construction Bid VS. Estimate: Know the Difference



The terms ‘bid’ and ‘estimate’ are two very familiar words in the field of construction. Customers, however, often use them interchangeably, as if they mean the same thing. To contractors, they mean two different things. Read on to know the difference between construction bids and estimates.

What is a Construction Bid?
A construction bid is a document that offers to perform a specific job for a customer or client. It includes the price for the specific construction, and the timeline and date of completion that the contractor can commit to. A contractor can only give a bid once he has met with the client and has discussed the project in detail. If the bid is successful, the contractor is expected to be faithful to the price and the committed timeline stated in the bid.

In the bid, the contractor is expected to take into account all possible costs for the duration of the project. The main costs that must be included are material costs, labor costs, and subcontractor’s fees and wages. The bid must also take into account any government fees, taxes, and other incidental costs.

Ideally, the total cost of the project should not exceed the total cost quoted in the submitted bid.

What is a Construction Estimate?
An estimate is the information that a contractor gives to a client who wants to know how much a project will cost. In short, estimates are all about costs. The contractor will assess the specifications of a project and identify the raw materials, labor, and services that will be needed to complete the project. An estimate is not necessarily a commitment between the two to proceed with the project.

Since it is a rough approximation, expect some deviation from the actual costs of the project. It is meant to give the client an idea how much his construction will cost, whether it is within his budget or beyond. However, it is expected to be fairly accurate, coming from a reputable and competent contractor.

There are four levels of accuracy when it comes to estimates. These are:

     Preliminary Estimate
This is also known as ballpark estimate. It helps the client assess the feasibility of a construction project.

     Square-foot Estimate
Once a project is deemed feasible, this is the next stage of estimate. An industry standard unit costs per square foot is used, multiplied by the number of square feet.

     Assembly Estimate
This estimate refines initial calculations by considering each component of the project. This could include foundation, roofing, flooring, and sanitation.

     Final Estimate
This is the most detailed and most accurate of the four. It can be used as the basis for the bid that a contractor makes for the construction project.

Both construction bids and construction estimates give the client information on his project. Ask estimates and bids only from reputable construction companies and contractors, to get accurate and detailed information.
