Purpleberry Laundry
Originally Purpleberry Laundry and Purple and Green Laundry in Mandaluyong City is one of our business package set up project. I personally designed it and named Purpleberry after my own laundry thinking that this laundry would really make a name in the laundry industry but unfortunately, I was belittled and disregarded for all the hard work. In short we cut all our ties including the support and supplies to Purpleberry Laundry and Purple and Green Laundry.
It just bothers me that I have been receiving complaints from customers from Mandaluyong City and the most recent one was from Flair Towers.To make things clear we would like you to know that Raspberry Laundry is not related to these company. The fact that we were the ones who trained them doesn't mean we were one or the service are the same. In terms of operation we were always upgrading our standard operating system to give our customers the best that we can. That is why it really makes me sad that my name is being used in the wrong manner.I put all my heart to this business and I would always want to be known for quality of the services that we provide.

Do you have what it takes to be an Entrepreneur?
What Traits Does the Modern Entrepreneur Have?
With a soft economy and job opportunities scarce, many people are becoming entrepreneurs not because they are looking to increase their wealth, but because they need to pay the bills. Thanks to the modern reach of the internet, anyone can become a global entrepreneur from their home office with just a few tools. Still… some entrepreneurs succeed and some end up failing miserably. What traits do successful entrepreneurs have that helps create the environment for success?
Trait #1: Perseverance
When a website can load in just 1 second and when instant digital payments can transfer cash back and forth between people across the world, we have an expectation for immediate success. For the vast majority of entrepreneurs, success isn’t immediate. Instead it is gradual. Many would-be entrepreneurs who would find great success end up giving up at their first failure! Stick with an idea that’s good, be willing to eliminate bad ideas, and you’ll find success in the near future.
Trait #2: Creativity
In order to provide value to people, an entrepreneur must provide something that has never been seen before. It could be a brand new product, a new way of thinking about something, or a revision on a current product or service. You won’t stand out from the crowd of entrepreneurs selling the exact same thing everyone else is selling.
Trait #3: Take a Risk
The old adage is that it takes money to make money. In many ways it is true because to maximize your level of success, you’ve got to be willing to risk existing resources to get new resources. You could certainly go bury your cash in the ground and have it for later, but buried cash has no ability to grow and become actual wealth.
Trait #4: Take Criticism For What It’s Worth
A popular question during an interview is “How do you handle constructive criticism?” Negative words are difficult to swallow and that’s a natural human response. What you do with that response will make you a better entrepreneur or make you flunk out. Why? Because criticism is ultimately feedback about what you are doing. If you can glean some truth from that criticism and make an adaptation to it, you can be a better entrepreneur.
Trait #5: Be Frugal
Entrepreneurs often get in trouble by spending money as soon as they make it. You really can grow too quickly and then find yourself out of work and opportunities because you ran out of resources. If you grow a little bit every day, you’ll be able to meet the demands for what you have to offer, be able to pay your bills, and expand when the time is right.
Being an entrepreneur is a rewarding experience, even if it does take a lot of work. You can’t really climb an entire staircase in one step, but you can climb it by taking small steps, one at a time. Develop these traits within yourself and you’ll start climbing your own staircase to success sooner rather than later!

Antibacterial products are no more effective than soap and water, and could be dangerous
The US health regulator has warned that antibacterial chemicals in soaps and body washes may pose health risks.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) called for a safety review of such products.
It proposed a rule requiring manufacturers to prove such soaps are safe and more effective against infection than plain soap and water.
Recent studies indicate an ingredient in such products could scramble hormone levels and boost drug-proof bacteria.
The proposal rule does not apply to alcohol-based hand sanitizers and products used in healthcare settings.
A number of studies have found that, in rats, frogs and other animals, triclosan appears to interfere with the body's regulation of thyroid hormone, perhaps because it chemically resembles the hormone closely enough that it can bind to its receptor sites. If this is the case in humans, too, there are worries that it could lead to problems such as infertility, artificially-advanced early puberty, obesity and cancer.
These same effects haven't yet been found in humans, but the FDA calls the animal studies "a concern"—and notes that, given the minimal benefits of long-term triclosan use, it's likely not worth the risk.
4. The soaps might lead to other health problems, too.
There's evidence that children with prolonged exposure to triclosan have a higher chance of developing allergies, including peanut allergies and hay fever. Scientists speculate that this could be a result of reduced exposure to bacteria, which could be necessary for proper immune system functioning and development.
Another study found evidence that triclosan interfered with muscle contractions in human cells, as well as muscle activity in live mice and minnows. This is especially concerning given other findings that the chemical can penetrate the skin and enter the bloodstream more easily than originally thought. A 2008 survey, for instance, found triclosan in the urine of 75 percent of people tested.
5. Antibacterial soaps are bad for the environment.
When we use a lot of triclosan in soap, that means a lot of triclosan gets flushed down the drain. Research has shown that small quantities of the chemical can persist after treatment at sewage plants, and as a result, USGS surveys have frequently detected it in streams and other bodies of water. Once in the environment, triclosan can disrupt algae's ability to perform photosynthesis.
The chemical is also fat-soluble—meaning that it builds up in fatty tissues—so scientists are concerned that it can biomagnify, appearing at greater levels in the tissues of animals higher up the food chain, as the triclosan of all the plants and animals below them is concentrated. Evidence of this possibility was turned up in 2009, when surveys of bottlenose dolphins off the coast of South Carolina and Florida found concerning levels of the chemical in their blood.
What Should You Do?
If you're planning on giving up antibacterial soap—like Johnson & Johnson and several other companies have recently done—you have a couple options.
One is a non-antibiotic hand sanitizer which don't contain any triclosan and simply kill both bacteria and viruses with good old-fashioned alcohol. Because the effectiveness of hand-washing depends on how long you wash for, a quick squirt of sanitizer might be more effective when time is limited.
Outside of hospitals, though, they recommends the time-tested advice you probably heard as a child: wash your hands with conventional soap and water. That's because while alcohol from hand sanitizer kills bacteria, it doesn't actually remove dirt or anything else you may have touched. But a simple hand wash should do the trick. The water doesn't need to be hot, and you're best off scrubbing for about 30 seconds to get properly clean.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) called for a safety review of such products.
It proposed a rule requiring manufacturers to prove such soaps are safe and more effective against infection than plain soap and water.
Recent studies indicate an ingredient in such products could scramble hormone levels and boost drug-proof bacteria.
The proposal rule does not apply to alcohol-based hand sanitizers and products used in healthcare settings.
The FDA announced a bold new position on antibacterial soap: Manufacturers have to show that it's both safe and more effective than simply washing with conventional soap and water, or they have to take it off the shelves in the next few years.
About 75 percent of liquid antibacterial soaps and 30 percent of bars use a chemical called triclosan as an active ingredient. The drug, which was originally used strictly in hospital settings, was adopted by manufacturers of soaps and other home products during the 1990s, eventually ballooning into an industry that's worth an estimated $1 billion. Apart from soap, we've begun putting the chemical in wipes, hand gels, cutting boards, mattress pads and all sorts of home items as we try our best to eradicate any trace of bacteria from our environment.
But triclosan's use in home over-the-counter products was never fully evaluated by the FDA—incredibly, the agency was ordered to produce a set of guidelines for the use of triclosan in home products way back in 1972, but only published its final draft on December 16 of last year. Their report, the product of decades of research, notes that the costs of antibacterial soaps likely outweigh the benefits, and forces manufacturers to prove otherwise.
Bottom line: Manufacturers have until 2016 to do so, or pull their products from the shelves. But we're here to tell you that you probably shouldn't wait that long to stop using antibacterial soaps. Here's our rundown of five reasons why that's the case:
1. Antibacterial soaps are no more effective than conventional soap and water. As mentioned in the announcement, 42 years of FDA research—along with countless independent studies—have produced no evidence that triclosan provides any health benefits as compared to old-fashioned soap.
"I suspect there are a lot of consumers who assume that by using an antibacterial soap product, they are protecting themselves from illness, protecting their families," Sandra Kweder, deputy director of the FDA's drug center, told the AP. "But we don't have any evidence that that is really the case over simple soap and water."
Manufacturers say they do have evidence of triclosan's superior efficacy, but the disagreement stems from the use of different sorts of testing methods. Tests that strictly measure the number of bacteria on a person's hands after use do show that soaps with triclosan kill slightly more bacteria than conventional ones.
But the FDA wants data that show that this translates into an actual clinical benefit, such as reduced infection rates. So far, analyses of the health benefits don't show any evidence that triclosan can reduce the transmission of respiratory or gastrointestinal infections. This might be due to the fact that antibacterial soaps specifically target bacteria, but not the viruses that cause the majority of seasonal colds and flus.
2. Antibacterial soaps have the potential to create antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
The reason that the FDA is making manufacturers prove these products' efficacy is because of a range of possible health risks associated with triclosan, and bacterial resistance is first on the list.
The reason that the FDA is making manufacturers prove these products' efficacy is because of a range of possible health risks associated with triclosan, and bacterial resistance is first on the list.
Heavy use of antibiotics can cause resistance, which results from a small subset of a bacteria population with a random mutation that allows it to survive exposure to the chemical. If that chemical is used frequently enough, it'll kill other bacteria, but allow this resistant subset to proliferate. If this happens on a broad enough scale, it can essentially render that chemical useless against the strain of bacteria.
This is currently a huge problem in medicine—the World Health Organization calls it a "threat to global health security." Some bacteria species (most notably, MRSA) have even acquired resistance to several different drugs, complicating efforts to control and treat infections as they spread. Health officials say that further research is needed before we can say that triclosan is fueling resistance, but several studies have hinted at the possibility.
3. The soaps could act as endocrine disruptors.A number of studies have found that, in rats, frogs and other animals, triclosan appears to interfere with the body's regulation of thyroid hormone, perhaps because it chemically resembles the hormone closely enough that it can bind to its receptor sites. If this is the case in humans, too, there are worries that it could lead to problems such as infertility, artificially-advanced early puberty, obesity and cancer.

Vinegar and Baking Soda Cleaning Solution
I would like to share with you the cleaning power of white vinegar and baking soda that are usually found inside our kitchen. I was always having a hard time or let's say I can't get rid of the smell of chlorine bleach every time I clean our bathroom. I was looking for more practical ways on how to save money and eliminate my intolerance to chemicals so yesterday I tried using the mixture of white vinegar and baking soda to my bathroom tiles. I let the mixture sit for 10 minutes then I scrub it all over the floor. I was amazed and I saw visible results just in minutes.It was great and I am happy with the results plus no foul smell. If you too are looking for more economical and practical ways you may want to try this at home and see for yourself.
Another use of baking powder, I add some to my dirty laundry to eliminate the odor and it also makes my clothes softer once I load them into the washer. Then I would add up vinegar to the final rinse as my alternative instead of using chemical base fabric conditioner. I don't like the soap residue the commercial fabric conditioner leaves in my washer so as much as I could I used white vinegar. No need to worry about the smell after the wash because It is totally fresh and chemical free. You could also add your own scent by using scented oil mixed with white vinegar for your final rinse.

What does the bible says about money and investing?
Today i would like to share with you the biblical money code.This is not about getting rich quick but it's not about playing it safe either. This
code has been used by successful investment giants including Warren Buffet and
John Templeton, to accrue billions. The "Biblical Money Code" guides
investors through the confusing attitudes regarding money and wealth by looking
at what the Bible actually says about how we are to use the resources we have
been given.
For the love of money
is a root of all kinds of evil, and by craving it, some have wandered away from
the faith and pierced themselves with many pains (1 Timothy 6:10).
Money is not evil
The Bible does not say
money is evil, but it's the love of money that leads people to make poor
investment choices that can lead people into "wealth-stealing
investments," or the "fear-and-greed" market cycles that often
leave people destitute. The video takes a look at King Solomon and the wisdom
found in Proverbs. Those who want to honor God with their money can learn how
to become wealthy without falling in love with money. It starts with
"looking well" into your investments which is based on Proverbs 14.
People are hungry to
learn how to honor God with their money, and the video has gone viral. Not only
does it teach Sean's three-prong system for investing, and his "12-12-12
plan for investing" – he does it for free. It's a clear example of his
giving to bless others which he also talks about
1.Recognize
God's will.
Recognize that God wants to make you rich (3
John 2, Proverbs 10:22).
Recognize that Jesus died to make you rich (2
Corinthians 8:9).
Recognize that God will supply your needs
(Philippians 4:19).

. Recognize that the number one way to prosperity is that God will lead you so
that you must follow your conscience.
You have fantastic
talents and abilities, and God can show you exactly what you must do. You might
be laid off but get a raise in your new job. On these occasions God's Spirit
gives a witness in your spirit on what career to pursue -- and you can prosper
by following your conscience (and leadership of the Holy Spirit). In the times
that you have such a witness, get alone and pray seriously each day, for
several days before, to be sure that God was witnessing to your conscience.
Notice that Abraham obeyed the leading of God in Genesis 12:4. Proverbs 4:23,
"Above all things keep your heart [listen to the "small still
voice" within you] for out of it are the issues of life." Read
Galatians 3:13-14 and Romans 8:16-17.
Manage the money you make and learn the
investment cycles. Now for the three types of money in the Bible and the three
secrets to prosperity: after Abraham followed God (Genesis 12:4), God prospered
Abraham in Genesis 13:2 with cattle (his career), silver (the money he made)
and gold (investments).
The cattle represents
your career and notice that this comes first in The Bible.The secret to your
career is to become a specialist. Proverbs 13:15 says that "good
understanding gives favor". You must get your college degree and stick
with the same career to become a specialist. Proverbs 12:8 says that a man
shall be commended for his prudence, not for his hard work. You must learn to
"work smarter, not just harder." Notice that in Proverbs 24:27, God
wants you to establish your career before you get married. Deuteronomy 8:18, "But remember the Lord
your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so
confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today."
The silver represents
managing the money you make and the Bible secret is to live on a budget.
Proverbs 21:17 says that "he who loves pleasure will be poor". You
must balance your bills with your income. Also use credit wisely because
proverbs 22:7 says that "the borrower is slave to the lender".
Next is the gold and
this represents an investment. The Bible has a lot to say about investment
cycles. Forty years in the Bible is considered to be a generation.For instance, "in
the 40th year" (after the exodus) the Israelites entered the promise land
(Deut. 1:3). Moses was 80 years old at
the exodus. He had just spent 40 years in the desert, and before that---40
years in Egypt, (Acts 7:23-30). He died in the "the 40th year,"
(after the exodus, Num. 33:38). Thus, Moses life was divided into 3 equal
periods of 40 years.
This formula highlights
the creation pattern of the seventh day as set apart as special. Moreover, a
period of 40 or 100 years is considered to be a generation in the bible. (The
significance of the 100 years appears in the 4th and 5th 'steps'.) The bible
frequently mentions 40-year periods. The 40 years the Israelites spent in the wilderness
after they came out of Egypt is particularly pertinent to our study. The exodus
from Egypt was in 1446 BC. God said that that year was to be the beginning of a
new calendar for them, (Ex. 12:2). Events thereafter were dated from the exodus
until at least the time of King Solomon.
For instance, "in
the 40th year" (after the exodus) the Israelites entered the promise land
(Deut. 1:3). Moses was 80 years old at
the exodus. He had just spent 40 years in the desert, and before that---40
years in Egypt, (Acts 7:23-30). He died in the "the 40th year,"
(after the exodus, Num. 33:38). Thus, Moses life was divided into 3 equal
periods of 40 years.
King Solomon began to
build the temple "in the 480th year" (after the exodus, 1Kg. 6:1).
Now, 480 equals 12 x 40 years, or 12 generations. Solomon himself reigned 40
years, as did his father David, and King Saul before him. Many more examples
could be given, but the point is this: The ongoing 40-year cycles of the
360-prophetic calendar are clearly found in the bible; and moreover, they begin
at the start of a new calendar reference point inaugurated at the exodus, (Ex.
12:2). Even more significantly, the conception/birth of Christ is exactly 36 (6
x 6) generations later, or 36 x 40 years, or 360 x 4. (I.e., from 1446 to 6
BC). Both 36, 4, 360, and 40 are prime calendar numbers. Many more examples
could be cited.

Associate with people that inspire you and teach you to prosper.
It is important to note that Lot who
traveled with Abraham also prospered in his career due to the law of
association. Lot did not manage the money he made; all of his workers were
drunk and fought with Abraham's men, and the two had to go different paths. Lot
lost everything in Genesis 19 because Lot did not learn to follow his
conscience, be a specialist, manage the money he made nor learn investment
cycles. This goes to show that you can be blessed by the law of association but
unless one matures spiritually, one will always be driven with circumstances
(Abraham ignored circumstances Romans 4:19).
Major verses that show
economic and housing cycles in the Bible are Genesis 41, Proverbs 22:2-3,
Ecclesiastes 3:2,6 and the Early Church that sold their homes before a huge
recession under Claudius Caesar.
Proverbs 22:2-3,
"Rich and poor
have this in common:
The Lord is the Maker
of them all.
The prudent see danger
and take refuge,
but the simple keep
going and pay the penalty".
Ecclesiastes 3:1,3,6,
"There is a time
for everything,
and a season for every
activity under the heavens:
a time to be born and a
time to die,
a time to plant and a time
to uproot,
a time to search and a
time to give up,
a time to keep and a
time to throw away".

Review:
The three types of money in Abraham's
life was the cattle, the silver and the gold. They represent your career,
managing the money you make including investments. The ideals are to become a
specialist in your career, live on a budget (plan) and investment cycles.

General Fabric Guide
There are basically two kinds of fabric: synthetics are man made and fabrics made from natural fibers like cotton, silk, linen, and wool. This guide covers basic information on how to launder the most common synthetic and natural fiber fabrics.
Acetate- This fabric is synthetic and usually requires dry-cleaning. If the fabric tag says it is washable, wash it in cold water and use only a mild detergent designed for delicate fabrics (like Woolite). Don't soak this fabric and definitely don't wring or twist it. This fabric should be air dried only by laying it out flat on terry cloth towels. Iron it inside out while the garment is still damp.
Acrylic- This is a man-made fabric that resembles wool. Usually, it can be dry cleaned, hand-washed, or machine washed using warm water on the delicate setting. Acrylic likes to "pill" which means it will develop tiny little balls of fabric. To avoid pills, wash the garment inside out. After washing, gently squeeze water from the fabric, then gently shake it to smooth it. Lay sweaters on a terry cloth towel on a flat surface to dry. Acrylic garments other than sweaters can be hung on rust proof hangers. If the care label allows machine drying, use a low temperature and remove the garment as soon as it's dry.
Cotton- This is a natural fiber fabric that is made from cotton plants. Cotton tends to wrinkle easily, lose its color (called bleeding in wash-woman lingo) in the water, and it also shrinks. Cotton garments should always be washed in cold water unless they say "pre-shrunk" on the packaging when you buy it, otherwise, it will come out of the washer Lilliputian-ized. Make sure to wash these garments with similar colors. Use chlorine bleach on white cottons and color safe bleach on colorized cotton. The dryer setting for 100 percent cotton should very low.
Cotton Blends-Many manufacturers blend the cotton with some other material to make it more wrinkle resistant. Cotton blends should be washed and dried on the permanent press cycle, keeping similar colors together. Cotton blends may develop pills, so turn them inside out to avoid this.
Linen-This fabric is similar to cotton, but isn't quite as durable. Before washing colored linen, remember that, like cotton, it also will not hold dye well, so you will want to test it for colorfastness before washing and definitely wash it separately or with like colors. Linen is often blended with other fabrics to make it more stain and wrinkle resistant.
Nylon- This fabric is a strong synthetic material that is very lightweight. Nylon should be hand or machine washed on the gentle cycle and only with similarly colored garments and fibers. Nylon is famous for attracting static electricity, so use a fabric sheet if you machine dry and a fabric softener in the rinse cycle if you air dry.
Polyester (and polyester blends)- Is a synthetic fabric that is resistant to wrinkles and shrinking, but it does tend to "pill," and it also stains easily. Turning it inside out before washing will help with this. Most of the time, the care label will call for hand or machine washing using the gentle cycle. Dry these garments using the dryer's lowest setting or air dry using rust free hangers.
Rayon- This is a lightweight fabric that is prone to wrinkling. Most often, the care label will recommend that the garment be drycleaned. If it allows machine washing, be sure to use the gentle setting and air dry all garments except sweaters which should lay flat to dry. Be sure and use rust free hangers.
Silk- Surprisingly, silk is one of sturdiest of the natural fibers. It is often labeled for dry-cleaning, because silk dyes tend to bleed. Depending on the color, some silk items will be hand or machine washable on the gentle cycle. Use a very mild soap, like Woolite, always air dry, and NEVER use bleach on silk.
Spandex(aka Lycra)- Spandex is a fabric that has an elastic quality, which is why it is often used for bathing suits, underwear, sportswear --- anything physical. Most of the time the care label on Spandex will call for hand or machine washing using the gentle cycle, and you should always use a mild detergent. Spandex garments should be drip-dryed or dried using your dryer's lowest setting. NEVER use chlorine bleach products on spandex.
Triacetate- This is a shrink resistant, easy care fabric that hardly needs touch up ironing. Most often it is used on pleated sportswear (like tennis skirts) and other pleated items. All pleated triacetate items are usually handwashed, non-pleated can usually be machine washed.
Wool- This is a great natural fiber that resists water and stains. All wool garments can be drycleaned. If your care label says machine washable, make sure to turn the garment inside out and use only mild soap and cold water. Never wring out a wool item. Instead, lay it out on a terrycloth towel then roll it up in the towel. Then unroll the towel and lay the garment and towel on a flat surface to dry. Machine washable wool should be washed on the gentle cycle with a mild detergent and layed flat to dry.

Practical Gift Ideas
It so nice to be back after a long vacation. I was quite busy this holiday season managing the laundry business while attending to my family needs and wrapping of gifts to cooking for the feast. Today I would like to share with you some practical gifts for every occasion.
Since I was so busy to do shopping and I want my gifts to have a personal touch. I decided to give away some of my favorite soap products.

How to Keep Colors Bright?
Just about every laundry detergent in the world claims to
whiten whites and brighten brights, so why do our most colorful clothes seem to
come out of the wash looking less vibrant than before they went in?
Keeping your colors bright may not be the first thing on
your mind when you wake up in the morning, and we hope you're not losing too
much sleep over it at night, but unless you're going for that comfortably faded
look, there's no denying that clothes look their best when the colors are crisp
and new. Preserving the original color can also help you save money by
extending the life of your clothing, since the best techniques for brightening
colors tend to be gentler on fabrics than the old tried-and-true method of
jamming as much as you can into the washer and hitting "start." (It's
OK, we've all done it!)
Some of the best tricks for keeping colors bright rely on
inexpensive, environmentally friendly ingredients you probably already have in
your home. If you enjoy doing laundry as much as I do (which is to say, not
much at all), you'll be glad to know that these color-saving tips are almost as
simple as the throw-it-all-in-there approach, but with much better results.
Colors fade when the chemical bonds between the dye and the
fabric break down, so the best way to keep your colors bright is to wash
clothes in a way that either prevents dyes from dissolving, protects the fibers
in the fabric -- or both. Follow these tips, and your colors will look as good
as new!
Turn clothes inside out -- According to experts, the
tumbling action of the wash cycle and the dryer can cause fabric fibers to
break as clothes collide into each other and against the walls of the machine.
While you can't prevent the damage entirely, turning clothes inside out before
you wash them will keep the worst of the fraying on the inside, where it's out
of sight. If you dry your clothes on a clothesline, hang them inside away from
direct sunlight to help prevent fading.
Soak clothes in salt water -- Salt is inexpensive,
environmentally friendly and great for keeping your colors bright. Before you
wash that colorful new top, soak it overnight in salt water. Simply fill your
washer with cold water, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of salt, and then add your clothes.
In the morning, just add detergent and run the washer as you normally would.
You can add additional clothes at this point, too -- just be sure not to
overfill the washer.
Wash only when necessary -- The simplest way to prevent
colors from fading in the wash is to wash your clothes less frequently. If
you're careful, you can get several wears out of clothes you wear to work in an
office or for a few hours to a dressy event. Promptly blot and spot-treat any
liquid spills, and use a dry sponge or a fabric softener sheet to remove white
deodorant streaks or powder makeup.
Wash in cold water -- Washing in cold water instead of hot
not only helps keep your colors bright, it also conserves energy and saves you
money. For best results, use a detergent formulated for bright clothes and
cold-water washing.
