What About Tankless? - Water Heaters Only Inc.
Tankless water heater technology has been around for over a century, but in recent years have become popular again in the US. Tankless water heaters work in a different way than conventional storage tanks. In a tankless water heater, water passes through a small chamber or box and is heated by a large gas burner or by a heat exchanger as it passes through. This requires that more gas or electricity is used at the time the water is being heated, but tankless water heaters do not use any gas or electricity when your hot water is not in use.
Depending on your water usage, the type of tankless water heater you purchase and whether or not a tankless water heater can easily be installed in your home, going tankless is often a good choice. However they do cost more upfront than a conventional storage type water heater and savings are earned over the lifetime of the unit. Tankless water heaters will save money in the long run and take up much less space than a storage type water heater. If you are looking to free up space a tankless water heater might be the right choice.
Water Heaters Only, Inc has installed most brands of Tankless water heaters over the years, we offer a free consultation to help you choose if a tankless water heater is right for you. We urge our customers to do research and make an informed decision before buying a tankless water heater. Call (510) 791-2455 to speak with one of our tankless specialist for additional information or set up a time for an estimate to see if a tankless water heater is the best choice for you. | 2019-04-24T04:08:00 | https://waterheatersfremont.com/faqs/what-about-tankless/ |

Under the strain of massive external demand and serious moral and practical internal problems, the global food system is breaking. These problems have been building for decades, even centuries. Food globalisation has a long history. The first instances of international food trade sprung up as early as the 16th and 17th centuries with the rise of European maritime exploration. Since then, civilisation has not looked back and today, you can find food from every part of the world in every part of the world! This is a result of food globalisation. It has played a large part in feeding a population explosion, expanded the variety of foods available and brought great prosperity and knowledge-sharing. But, when combined with industrialisation, big agribusiness and their technologies and trade deals favouring profits over public interests, food globalisation becomes a different type of animal.
They use their political and financial clout to block, amend or otherwise discourage policies which would protect soils and land-owners rights.
This is how they operate. It’s absurdly unjust and wrong. And we are a far cry from defeating it.
How did this system come to exist? The dominant economic paradigm, based on a neo-liberal capitalist model, thrives on competition. When profits are valued over people, any cooperation or solidarity between farming entities is precluded. Soil needs to be nurtured over time to keep each successive generation fed. Instead of this permaculture approach, the priority is to extract as much financial value from the soil as possible right now before the next guy can. Clearly, this is not sustainable. It is said that good a farmer looks after their crops while a great farmer looks after their soil. Soil is an indispensable natural resource; we need it to grow food and without food, there is no life. Therefore, our treatment of it will decide on whether or not we can survive and prosper. If we continue in the current fashion, The Scientific American estimates that we might only have 60 years of topsoil left. A systemic change is needed. But a change to what?
Food Sovereignty = The right of peoples, communities and countries to define their own agricultural, labour, fishing, food and land policies which are ecologically, socially, economically and culturally appropriate to their unique circumstances. This can also be considered democracy within the food system.
If communities have the power to decide what they eat and who grows it (i.e. to control food access) then they can become self-sufficient (food sovereign). This make them less vulnerable to the effects of climate change on the global food system. It also puts them in a more independent position internationally; they are not reliant on trade deals in which they have no say. As their food security is within their control, they will implement a far more realistic idea of what their soil can sustainably produce. Cultural appropriateness is an added benefit. Of course, for Big Ag, this type of independence within the food system is bad for business and they will do whatever they can to halt it. Failing that, they will intensify production in order to use as much of these agricultural resources as possible before they are stopped; the clock is ticking!
Food sovereignty would take the power over food supply away from these corporate entities who depend on profit for survival and give it back to the people who depend on the food itself for survival. This is quite a challenge and would require action at every stage of the food supply chain from the grassroots community initiatives all the way up to the UN policy-makers. It would involve national and international centralized governing bodies deciding to allow localised community groups to grow their own food. This, in turn, would involve a recognition of the fact that the local community could do a better and more sustainable job of feeding themselves than the globalised food system.
For food sovereignty to work, it takes communication and cooperation between individuals and communities, between farmers and governments, between rural farmers and urban farmers. Skill and knowledge-sharing are a necessary component. Also necessary is an emphasis on agro-ecological farming practices and a permaculture approach. This system has countless social and ecological benefits with community togetherness, biodiversity enhancement and healthier produce being just a few. It can also have long-term economic benefits as it entails a right but also a responsibility. The right is to produce food and the responsibility is not to dump it at export into a foreign market that cannot handle it. Therefore, the hallmark of a food sovereign state needs to be solidarity between all stakeholders. But this solidarity would not come at the expense of autonomy. Indeed, a major principle of the framework is that it would actively encourage every aspect of food production to be localised and that includes decisions on how best to approach the crisis.
In Ireland, we currently only use about 1% of our land to grow organic vegetables according to Agriland. We import most of our food over-all. This is strange for a country known colloquially as ‘The Emerald Isle’. It makes us very vulnerable to disruptions in the global food supply chain, caused by climate change or financial crisis. These are two things associated with Big Ag. However, at the moment, there is an encouraging trend towards local allotments and community gardens which brings us to YFoE’s own work.
At YFoE, we are involved in several community gardens and have ties with several others. This is an active step we are currently taking to implement a food sovereignty framework by reducing local reliance on food produced globally. We also do awareness-raising campaigns. The aim is to get people to think about the food problems they are soon likely to be affected by and, of course, their capacity and options for actionable changes.
Policy reform is another area in which YFoE engage with this issue. We are constantly on the look out for lobbying events, civil society group actions and relevant petitions which we can support either through attendance or dissemination. An example was the Save Our Soils Campaign petition created as part of European Citizens Initiative (ECI). This petition required Ireland to get over over 8,250 signatures to become officially in favour of asking the European Commission to grant soil the same legal protection as water and air. YFoEI, along with a coalition of other NGOs, were instrumental in distributing this petition which passed in September!
However, it is arguably creative protest where YFoE has the largest capacity to make a meaningful difference. Our soil is a precious resource and control over both its use and the food grown in it is an indispensable right. Public engagement on this was exemplified at Bloom in the Park in June when a cross-section show garden was displayed by FoE as a means to educate the public on soil biodiversity and health. Currently, there is a big focus on how this external awareness-raising and education can be done to the greatest effect so that the greatest number of people can relate. The story of the soil and our food which grows in it is a disheartening one right now but with a greater spread of awareness comes hope.
This story can only end in one of two ways. We change course or we continue to oblivion (global food shortages and mass-starvation). The modern system is incompatible with a sustainable future and, for many, a survivable present! Very soon (probably within this generation), it will be too late to do anything about it. And this food crisis is already beginning, here as well as everywhere else. We are aware of it and, therefore, we have an ability and a duty to respond before it gets out of hand. It can be averted. The soil can be saved and the food supply can be protected. We are already taking steps towards this.
Ultimately, the question we need to be asking ourselves is who would you trust more to ensure you are well-fed? Would it be a corporate agricultural conglomerate or your regional government? A manufacturer of pesticides or the people in your local Grow It Yourself community? Essentially, would you trust the entire global food system or your own two hands? This is the decision between keeping the capitalist approach to food production and moving towards a food sovereignty approach. There can be only one answer.

Between June 20 and 28, cities across the world held vegan bake sales to raise money for charities and show everyone that vegan food can be delicious too. The second task was probably more challenging.
It's safe to say that no non-vegan has ever tasted food that doesn't use any animal products and said "that's good" without adding "for vegan food." But cities such as Portland and Vancouver put up a good fight last week with desserts that were beautiful by any standard. Here in cattle country, Society of Peace (at Mango's Café) and Sedition Books hosted sales.
We visited Sedition on Sunday with a real vegan in tow. It was a modest set-up, with a single table outside the shop in the punishing heat. We purchased a slice of yellow cake with mocha frosting, a coconut macaroon made almost entirely of chocolate, a soft gingerbread cookie and a lemon bar. The lemon bar was the best of the group, with its pop of tartness over a buttery (soy margarine) crust.
The vegan and I had both had better, but not in this city. In New York, where vegan donut trains arrive every week from Philadelphia, and in California, where Gwenyth Paltrow is more or less in charge, we have had our pick of vegan cuisine. Vegan food in Houston is mostly found at ethnic restaurants - pad Thai without the fish sauce and egg- or at a few strongholds like Mango's and Field of Greens. We wonder, how many vegans are there in Houston? And where do they hold their secret meetings? | 2019-04-25T18:17:06 | https://www.houstonpress.com/restaurants/houston-vegans-come-out-of-hiding-6430376 |

List Rules Only TV characters that fundamentally changed the show by being written off, and the show continued without them.
We all remember losing our favorite characters -- Elliot Stabler (Law & Order SVU), Mark Greene (ER), Diane Chambers (Cheers), Fox Mulder (The X Files), Kalinda Sharma and Will Gardner (The Good Wife), Mathew Crawley (Downton Abbey) and practically everyone we started to emotionally invest in on Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead. They get killed off, leave town, die of a terminal illness, get kidnapped, or sometimes just get transported to another world. Regardless of how they were written off (or why the actor chose to leave), they leave a gaping void in the show they built. This list is about ranking the greatest losses, whether the characters were good or evil. We wish the characters would have stayed because there were so many more stories to tell. Without them, the TV show went on but was never quite the same.

Two Bedford parents are in a custody battle over how to handle the weight problems of their 9-year-old son. At 5 feet and 140 pounds, Eric Smoot is considered overweight but not obese by a pediatrician. His father has filed legal papers fighting for custody, saying his son is dangerously obese and his weight could endanger his life. His mother, Darla Smoot, says the father, Lowell Taylor, didn’t have a problem until the state raised her child custody payments from $125 to $150 a week. A hearing between the two parties over custody is set for May. | 2019-04-22T20:03:08 | https://www.ibj.com/articles/18486-parents-in-custody-battle-over-son-s-weight |

I am embedding flash component in my application. It is working fine in browsers where flash player plugin is installed, but it doesn't work where flash plugin is not installed.
I have enabled the express install feature given in the document http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-0/#!/api/Ext.flash.Component, but it is not working.
I am using Extjs 4.0.1. And testing it in Chrome and Firefox.
Can you please point me to working example of this?
Can you see a request made to the path you configured in de debugger?
No. I don't see any request made to the express Installer.
It requests for my swf file. But after that nothing appears.
When I installed flash player in the firefox, then it work. But I want that if any browser doesn't have flash player installed, then it will show the user how to install it that is it shows download link for flash player.
There is also an expressInstall property, have you set it on true?
Yes , I have made that true. | 2019-04-25T22:03:56 | https://www.sencha.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-240160.html?s=4f40f21b131045fc7a5fafbbdadc6c58 |
Fixed a bug preventing an itinerary's receipt from loading, if the itinerary did not have any retail sale items added. Measures have also been taken in order to auto-test this functionality in future software releases.
Resolved a bug that was causing the payment save function to not check if the requested payment was online or offline. If a previous online gateway payment had been attempted for your session, recording an offline gateway payment would pick up the previous online gateway payment and record the payment using that payment amount. The fix will ensure that offline gateway payments don't lookup the previous online gateway payment, so that the payment amount will be the correct amount that was entered when saving the payment. | 2019-04-19T07:21:02 | https://help.bookeasy.com/support/solutions/articles/8000070645-bookeasy-patch-release-20-09-2018 |

Invest better. For good. Say 'no' to impact washing!
Invest better. For good. Be happy & change the world.
Great to see this Crunchbase piece on the rise of impact investing! It spurred a quick post of the things we’ve been thinking about at Marigold.
Improving social norms for all & reversing enviro degradation (the ‘who’ and ‘what’) has always seemed to be an executable thesis. As impact investors we are now the ‘cool kids’ invited to parties, so let’s be sure to work on our ‘how’ and ‘why’.
Let’s get the timing better understood.
Let’s alter our financial instruments & vehicles.
To make them better for all – not just the investor, but of course also the entrepreneur, entrepreneur’s employees, communities & clients… en route to changing financial systems and industries.
Let’s get that impact targeting & management stuff right.
Passive | reactive baseline reporting of meaningless output metrics is so passe.
Let’s not look for something (as investors) & not be that ourselves.
Holding entrepreneurs to a higher standard than we hold ourselves means talk without walk. While we’re at it, less talking, more listening.
Be clear on who we are & why we do what we do. It leads to People > Process > Outcomes.
The ‘what’ will be there (outcomes) if the ‘how’ (process) is sound & run by a compelling ‘why’ (amazing & amazingly focused people).
We don’t have any answers, just some percolating opinions, & every day we’re learning to better listen & ask questions.

Avira System Speedup Pro is a software that optimizes the computer in numerous areas, is easy to operate and can be used on various Windows systems. The Tune-Up program scans the computer for data garbage that is slowing it down. After a thorough scan, System Speedup Pro removes all troublemakers that were found, rectifies problems and optimizes performance. This enables the PC to run faster and the user gains additional storage space.
Via an online contact form, users can reach the English-speaking Avira support team by email or phone. Potential purchasers who are still uncertain can download the Avira System Speedup Pro software as a free demo version and test it for 30 days.
System Speedup Pro can be purchased on the official website in the form of a one-month subscription or as an annual subscription. Users pay around 25 euros for one year. After purchase, the software can be downloaded and installed on the PC. The full version is activated with an activation code, which the buyers receive via email.
A Wizard accompanies users through the installation steps. Installation is completed in just a few minutes and is hassle-free even for beginners. If purchasers are not satisfied with System Speedup Pro, they can return the software within 30 days and receive the full subscription price.
The program interface is designed in a clear way. The individual functions of the software can be found on the left hand side and important information can be found in the middle. A clear summary appears automatically after starting the program. Users can see the status of the system optimization in the dashboard. This is divided into the categories of hard drive, performance and private data. Via the menu situated on the left hand side, users call up the various cleaning functions of Avira System Speedup Pro.
A comprehensive analysis begins when the “Scan” button is clicked. After a few moments, users will have an overview of junk files, erroneous registry entries, and an exact indication of how much storage space can be gained. After simply clicking on “Optimize device”, the program starts with a cleaning process that is surprisingly quick. The Tune-Up software reliably removes all incorrect registry entries and deletes the junk files from the connected drives. As soon as the optimization process is complete, a summary appears in the middle of the screen. This allows users to see how many files, registry entries and private data have been cleaned up and optimized by Avira System Speedup Pro.
Under “Manage hard drive”, which is the fourth menu item on the left hand side, users can find the largest folders and files on the hard drives. In just a few clicks, users can have the Tune-Up software optimize their data carriers, thereby gaining free storage space. Data can be deleted hassle-free using the clean-up function. Additionally, users have access to a hard drive doctor, which scans all connected drives for errors and removes them.
The Tune-Up software’s dashboard provides users with many handy features. These can improve the performance of any computer. Avira System Speedup Pro analyzes the operating system and programs and recommends various optimization measures to the users. The software creates a detailed list of applications and apps that are slowing down the start-up. Users can deselect the entries so that these do not automatically start with Windows. This speeds up the operating system. Avira System Speedup Pro allows its users to choose whether to opt for basic optimization which enables a faster start-up or for HyperBoost which enables a start-up at the speed of light.
Users can deactivate certain services, thereby increasing the battery power of their laptop, in the menu item Energy Saving and High Performance Modes. By activating the turbo mode, the PC makes use of its maximum computing power. With the Game Booster, users deactivate updates and notifications and can thus play games undisturbed and with maximum processor speed. Among the many features of Avira System Speedup Pro is a professional defragmenter that rearranges individual files on the hard drive, thereby increasing the performance of the computer.
There are tools in the File menu with which users can find empty files and duplicates. Furthermore, there are tools to encrypt and decrypt data, and to copy locked or hidden files. A shredder that erases data irretrievably is also available. The right-click menu optimizer allows users to customize the entries that appear. In the Drive menu, users can see all the drivers that are placing heavy strain on Windows. In the service manager, the Tune-Up software lists all resource-intensive services, and the process manager displays all currently running processes. Drives, services and processes can be removed or stopped in just a few clicks.
In the Deinstaller menu, all installed programs are sorted according to size and can be uninstalled as desired with a simple click. With the Tune-Up program, users can create backups of the registry, of the hard drive’s master boot records, and of course, of individual folders and files. In addition, all changes made with the software can be undone in just a few clicks.
Under the menu item Restore files, the user can have the Avira System Speedup Pro search for deleted files on the hard drive and restore them in just a few clicks. This works on all deleted data, apart from files that have already been overwritten with new file segments. The System restore menu allows users to manage the system’s restore points, delete old backups, or reset the operating system.
System Speedup Pro from Avira has a modern, clear and english-language user interface and can only be installed on Windows platforms. Thanks to a quick and simple installation, the software can be used in just a few minutes. Compared to the competition, the program places high demands on the computer and requires at least Windows 7 (SP1), 2 GB of hard drive space and 2 GB of RAM. There is also a convenient app for smartphones with the Android operating system called Avira Android Optimizer.
Users can find plenty of helpful information about System Speedup Pro and useful instructions on how to use the software on the Avira website. Users can find suitable answers to the most important questions online. Especially handy: The program automatically creates a system restore point after installation.
Most problems can be solved with the extensive information on the website. For any other questions or technical issues, purchasers are welcome to contact the customer support team at any time. The team can be reached by email at any time, or by telephone (English telephone number) daily. The customer service staff speak English and generally answer emails within 24 hours.

Along with the enjoyment of owning your own home, comes the responsibility of taking care of it. You must maintain your home and keep your home repair and maintenance on a balanced budget. Continue reading to learn more about one of the things being a homeowner entails, maintaining your roof.
Don’t go up on your roof in inclement weather. Slippery roofs can mean major falls. You can really injure yourself, or worse, you could die. If you’re doing roof work yourself, make sure to do it during dry and sunny days.
Make sure to wear rubber boots if you ever need to get on your roof. Regardless of the weather, rubber-soled shoes are a necessity for keeping your footing on the roof. It’s risky to walk on your roof, so make sure you are always thinking about safety.
Prior to the removal of your old roof, make sure your lawn is cut short. This way, if nails fall on the ground, they’ll be much easier to find. Short grass, combined with magnetic nail finders, makes locating nails even simpler.
Prior to agreeing to hire a roofer, there are many questions you need to ask them. A good question might be how many nails are going to be used in each shingle. Typically, three nails aren’t enough. Ask about their policies and make sure you are happy with the answers you receive. If you don’t get the right answers, walk away.
When selecting a roofer, ask loved ones for their experiences and recommendations. Find out if they were happy with the work and the cost of a particular roofer. Ask how well contractors cleaned when they finished the job and if they offer warranties for future repairs.
After you’ve narrowed down your list of contractors, talk to them about what kind of warranties they have available. You want a warranty of at least three years, but the longer the warranty the better. The contractor’s warranty should cover faults due to both workmanship and part failure. A proper roofer should provide you with the manufacturer’s warranties for all of the supplies he uses, too.
Choose a roof contractor with some good credentials. Nearly every state insists that roofers be properly licensed, so inspect your contractor’s paperwork to ensure that they are fully compliant. They need to also have insurance that is full liability, as well as a certificate that’s current and covers workers’ compensation.
The age of your roof is the main factor in determining whether you should replace it or not. Many roofs last around twenty years prior to needing replacement. If your new roof is installed over the old one, you must replace it after 20 years.
You need the right information whether you’re installing the roof on your own or hiring a contractor. Fortunately, this article has provided you with excellent knowledge that will be of great assistance to you. Having said that, continue to do your own research on the subject. Use this knowledge to its fullest advantage. | 2019-04-23T00:40:52 | http://www.123homeimprovement.com/fix-your-roof-by-checking-out-these-tips-13/ |

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, musician Bob Dylan and astronaut John Glenn were among a select group of 13 Americans named by President Obama Thursday as the latest recipients of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor.
The medals, which the president will present to recipients at a White House ceremony, recognize individuals who have made “especially meritorious contributions” to the security or national interests of the Unites States, to world peace, or to cultural or other significant endeavors, according to the White House’s Thursday announcement.
Other than Ms. Albright, Mr. Dylan and Mr. Glenn, Mr. Obama also named Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, former Israeli President Shimon Peres, Novelist Toni Morrison, former University of Tennessee Women’s Basketball coach Pat Summit, worker’s rights leader Dolores Huerta and civil rights leader John Doar.
The president also chose William Foege, the physician who led the campaign to eradicate smallpox, Gordon Hirabayashi, who openly defied the forced relocation and internment of Japanese Americans during World War II, Jan Karski, who served as an office in the Polish Underground during World War II and was one of the first eye-witnesses of the Holocaust, as well as Juliette Gordon Low, who founded the Girl Scouts in 1912.
The White House said it was recognizing Ms. Albright, who served as secretary of state under President Clinton from 1997 to 2001 and was first woman to hold the position, for her work enlarging the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and helping lead the alliance’s campaign against terror and ethnic cleansing in the Balkans. Mr. Dylan, one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, was is known for his “rich and poetic lyrics” and his work had “considerable influence on the civil rights movements of the 1960s and has had significant impact on American culture over the past five decades,” the White House said.
Mr. Glenn’s selection was just a matter of time. The former senator and astronaut was the third American in space and the first American to orbit the earth and was the oldest person to visit space at the age of 77. | 2019-04-19T18:53:50 | https://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/inside-politics/2012/apr/26/presidential-medal-freedom-winners-include-albrigh/ |

Lifewriting—What If The Kids Don’t Care?
A January 21 post in The Heart and Craft of Lifestory Writing blog mentions an article from the Denver Post of that same date called , “Ordinary Families Make History, Too.” A couple of Colorado writers, Irv Green and Andrea Gross, have a business of creating heirloom family story books and noticed that it was often the grandchildren who were more interested in the family stories rather than the grown children of the customers. “I thought it’d be the grandmother writing for her 50-year-old son, but it was the 11-year-old grandchildren going bonkers over the stories,” Gross said. And, that’s about what I say at presentations—you never know who will enjoy the old memories or at what age they will become interested, so write down or tell those stories anyway. If not now, then someday someone will be glad you did.

A see-through plastic lid, that doesn’t snap into place but rests gently yet securely on top (unless you try to carry the typewriter by its handle) is a nice touch that other electronic typewriter manufacturers have also copied. Silver Reed EX42/44 electronic typewriters also have one, as does the Olivetti Praxis 20.
Hark the (broken) Herald Pica wheel.
I should have checked the printwheel was properly engaged before I powered on the typewriter, because a horrible electronic crunching ensued. End result: a daisywheel with more than a few broken stems and petals.
Well that seemed to work, except that the wheel occasionally jams and there’s more electronic crunching. The thought occurred to me that T-A daisywheels weren’t as compatible as they should be.
But that seller’s list is unreliable: The same JUKI models are also listed as compatible under “IBM Wheelwriter” which is wrong, because the Wheelwriter has a completely different (enclosed) printwheel. JUKI should be listed under the “IBM Actionwriter”.
I get the feeling the 2100/2200 is a disposable gadget that JUKI gave out to their clients like other companies gave out ball-point pens.
It’s not so much a typewriter as it is a printer with a keyboard added as an afterthought.
The time lag between key press and impact on paper is woefully long, which is something you can expect from most portable daisywheel machines. It’s a shame because the keyboard is reasonably tactile.
Also, whereas the hum of my IBM 6715 is barely discernable, this “typewriter” has the loudest hum I’ve ever experienced on an electric or electronic typewriter. It’s so loud, when you switch the typewriter off, the hum resonates in your ear drums for a good while afterwards.
I can’t believe it was that loud when new, possibly the motor’s on its last legs.
There’s also some squeakiness of the ribbon carrier as it moves back and forth like a jittery mouse. It’s actually quite endearing, but the hum spoils everything.
First established as a cooperative of machinery manufacturers in Tokyo in 1938, the TOKYO JUKI INDUSTRIAL CORPORATION began trading under that name in 1943.
The first household and industrial sewing machines were produced in 1947 and 1953 respectively. In 1988 the Corporation was renamed simply as JUKI CORPORATION (this typewriter has the old company name on the back of the machine, so we can deduce it’s not later than 1988).
Today, the company is known primarily for its production of industrial sewing machines; and secondly for the production of automated industrial systems, electronic assemblies, PCBs, etc.
A third segment of the business, and most relevant to this post, the JUKI HIROSHIMA CORPORATION (home of the JUKI Office Machine Corporation) was established in July 1963.
And there I was (before I got my hands on a JUKI typewriter or did any research) thinking that the JUKI 2100/2200 was, like the IBM 6715, a Triumph-Adler electronic typewriter.
True, a “Japanese” electronic typewriter made in Germany doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, especially when you consider the technological know-how and resources that an organisation like JUKI had (and still have) at their disposal.
But while the JUKI 2100/2200 isn’t a Triumph-Adler “clone”, other than the fact that it uses a T-A compatible daisywheel, no point re-inventing the wheel (JUKI also used 96 character Diablo daisywheels on some of their printers), there was plenty of “cloning” going on.
How else to explain the JUKI Sierra 3300 (electronic rather than electro-mechanical) IBM Selectric clone?
“I’m predicting there will be 24 brands available by the end of 1982,” said Clifford M. Lindsey, an analyst at Dataquest, a market research firm in Cupertino, California. “And without an exciting technological development, I.B.M. could experience an erosion down to about 40 percent of the electronic market.
[…] Mr. Lindsey of Dataquest noted that Tokyo Juki Industries had recently introduced a $495 electronic typewriter that uses an I.B.M. ball and has 1,000 fewer parts than a $775 I.B.M. model that I.B.M. had withdrawn from the market earlier.
JUKI also used original IBM ribbons in some, but not all, of their daisywheel printers. A re-branded JUKI 6100 daisywheel printer, for example, was bundled with the American Kaypro home/personal computer …..
Does this mean JUKI had something to do with the production of Olivetti’s Made-in-Japan electronic typewriters, or were Olivetti (and others) simply sourcing their ribbon cassettes from Japan? I don’t know.
I spent $20 on this noisy, quacking, ugly ducking of a machine because I wanted to write about it. I certainly wouldn’t want to write on it.
Almost everything points to 1984 ..
So 1985 it is. Unless JUKI TD MAIN CONTROL E8607012000 is trying to tell me something ….! | 2019-04-26T09:40:49 | https://writelephant.com/tag/juki/ |

I purchased this about a week ago and the delivery time said 1-3 days and its been almost 7... Slightly confused.
I think this ring is super cute. The size was spot on and I'm hoping it continues to stay in tact and doesn't turn my finger green. I just got the ring today so hopefully not complaints in the future so I give this product a five star and I recommend to others. The shipping was also very fast.

TROY ‑ Police investigating the October shooting of a city man seized firearms and ammunition during a raid at a home near the murder scene, authorities said.
Police late Monday raided the first floor apartment at 448 1st St. and seized a loaded pistol grip shotgun and a Romanian SKS assault rifle, along with over 300 rounds of ammo, police spokesman Sgt. Terry Buchanan said.
Buchanan said the raid was connected to information police got during their investigation of the Oct. 13 fatal shooting of 29-year-old Jimmy Chapman.
Chapman was found shot once in the head and lying on a sidewalk at Harrison and Second streets at around 8 p.m.. He died the next day at Albany Medical Center Hospital. No arrests have been made. Police do not believe the weapons seized in the raid are connected to the murder.
''We are hoping that information we get from this arrest will lead to more information about the murder,'' Buchanan said.
Police arrested the resident of the apartment, Tyrone T. Howard, 30. They are not calling him a suspect in the homicide.
Howard was charged with two counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon and one count of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon. He was arraigned Tuesday morning in city court and sent to the Rensselaer County Jail pending a hearing. | 2019-04-24T10:46:01 | https://www.timesunion.com/local/article/Homicide-investigation-leads-to-gun-seizure-556077.php |

It seems like the Canadian dollar exchange rate vs. the US dollar has been stuck around 75 cents for ever! Well, it has been at this level for at last a year and it is unlikely to change anytime soon. And with the Canadian economy not doing so well of late and job numbers being sluggish, things may get worse. Time to hold on to our money. But hey, that better not mean that we have to skip on our vacation? In fact you may!
Staycations, or vacataioning in your own town, province or country in general, will help you save money and help revive the economy (local hotels, restaurants, sightseeing, gas, etc.) If 1 million people end up vacationing locally, and assuming each spends an average of $750, that is $750,000,000 back to our local economy. That is close to a billion dollar back to our economy, and given this era of slow GDP growth, this would definitely help.
In 2013, the average Canadian Canadian spent close to $2600 on a March break vacation, with 36% opting to go to the US. And according to a 2015 BMO survey, Canadians planned to spend an average of $2038 on ‘longer vacations and weekend trips. And finally, according to the Huffington Post, Canadians spend an average of $1800 on a vacation. : about 30% spend their time in the US.
To put these numbers in prospective, some of us spend as much or more on vacationing than we do on food (assuming the weekly family grocery bill is $100 for a family of 3-4) . Understandably, this is a not an apples to apples comparison (money spent on vacations vs. money spent on food) but it gives you an idea of how much we love our vacations, especially those to the south of the border, Caribbean and Europe. In other words, it is mostly money flowing out of the local economy. Don’t get me wrong, given our brutal, dark, snowy and cold winters, we all deserve at least one major vacation every year. But how about only one? why not spend the other locally, in your own province at least? While we don’t have any cultural sites that rival those in Europe or sandy beaches like in the Caribbean, we still have places that millions from all over the world come to visit each year (Banff National Park, Niagara Falls, Bay of Fundy, the Great Lakes, Muskoka region, 1000 Islands are just to name a few…) And I bet most of you haven’t seen half o these Canadian places if not more.
With my family, we decided to skip our annual big vacation last year. We replaced it with shorter vacations in southwestern Ontario which saved us over $2000 in total (family of 3) while still getting to have some great time, seeing and enjoying some great places (North Bay, Muskoka, Niagara Falls, 1000 Islands and more) And guess what? We may do the same this year, skipping on that big vacation down south, since our dollar is still as weak as it was last year and is unlikely to recover anytime soon.
One thing you can also do is to save some money every year for one big trip every 3-5 years, while still doing mini local vacations. For example, we plan to do a big European cruise for our 5th anniversary. In order to afford that, we have to forgo the annual vacations we take to the Carribean and the other sunny destinations in the US. | 2019-04-25T15:58:29 | http://budgetsense.ca/category/travel/ |

Wall space is an intervention commissioned by Headlands Center for the Arts, that transforms the Californian sun and the shadows it casts into ink or paint for artists and writers to express themselves.
Headlands Center for the Arts is located in the Marin Headlands, just above San Francisco. The arts center is housed in white painted wood slatted army barracks that date from the end of the nineteenth century. The wood slats on the wall of the buildings recall traditional movie marquees and prove to be a great place to hide rails onto which interchangeable letters or shapes can be clipped with metal springs. The letters are mad from aluminum mesh that lets the light through and also casts shadows. The front side is painted in the color of the wall. The back is painted in black or bright colors to enhance or dye the shadows of the letters. So it is their shadow rather than the letters that the eye sees, the aluminum letters themselves blend with the color of the wall. When cloudy the letters remain legible, as their shadows become a foggy blur.
This first installation features a poem written by American Indian poet Wendy Rose. It evokes the times before the European missionaries occupied the Bay Area. Every few months another artist or writer is invited to create a piece for the wall, so that in time, the wall turns into the pages of an ever-growing book of poems and illustrations. | 2019-04-21T14:37:44 | http://dutchdesigndaily.com/complete-overview/wall-space/?theme=34 |

I designed this wood engraving to be an illustration for the children's picture book "Four Otters Toboggan: An Animal Counting Book" written by Vivian Kirkfield and published by Pomegranate Kids. After the book was finished, I chose a few of my favorite illustrations to be printed as hand pulled editions. The illustrations were a joy to work on, and the book will be for sale in stores, including here, in March 2019, when it publishes. This illustration had 5 colors printed on top of each other, with one layer being a split color (see image above).
Paper size: 10 x 12 1/2" (25.5x32cm) Designed to fit in a 11x14 standard frame.
Prints are shipped in flat cardboard mailers in clear plastic sleeves with a small slip that tells a little bit about the artist and print. | 2019-04-26T15:16:07 | https://www.etsy.com/listing/102550201/butterfly-and-floral-woodcut-original?ref=shop-shares-comp-listing&frs=1 |

South Wales Wood Recycling Ltd at Newport Docks has an estimated 20,000 tonnes of woodchip waste onsite awaiting recovery.
The operator is removing large amounts of wood chippings to another area of the docks to speed up work to stop it from smoking.
This has resulted in the release of more smoke and steam in the short term and we are monitoring air quality as a precaution.
The monitoring will continue and it has been estimated by the operator that the situation will be under control by the weekend.
An investigation is ongoing and NRW will take the appropriate action if necessary.
“The operator has stepped up activity in the last few days which should tackle the problem sooner rather than later. | 2019-04-22T22:17:44 | https://naturalresources.wales/about-us/news-and-events/news/officers-continue-investigation-at-waste-site/?lang=en |

This is the 2012 version of the best jobs report. Read the Best Jobs of 2013 here.
The world is going digital, and Software Engineers who can help with that transformation are reaping the benefits. Their pay is great, hiring demand for their skills is through the roof, and working conditions have never been better. And that’s why the job of Software Engineer ranks tops in our annual Jobs Rated report on the nation’s best and worst jobs for 2012.
Of course, any job may seem like the best job if you’re unemployed and the improving economy hasn’t ushered you back into the workforce. But there are qualities that make some professions more desirable than the rest of the pack. Again this year our researchers looked high and low to find those occupations that ranked the best in five key areas: Work Environment, Physical Demands, Job Outlook, Income Levels and Stress. And it should be no surprise that Software Engineer ranks No. 1, followed by Actuary, Human Resources Manager, Dental Hygienist and Financial Planner.
This year, there are several professions that are making their inaugural appearance on our Jobs Rated Top 10 Best Jobs list. Human Resources Manager , Financial Planner , Occupational Therapist and Online Advertising Manager are all rated as a Top 10 Best Job for the first time due to a combination of high incomes, great environments, good job growth and relatively low unemployment rates.
Employment growth for Human Resources Managers, for example, is projected to be a very healthy 21% thru 2020, which is on par with most medical professions, according to The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. If you mix their job outlook scores with their income levels (19th on our Jobs Rated list) and throw in the low physical demands, relatively safe work environment and low-to-moderate stress levels, HR Managers should rightly be listed as a Best Job.
With the increase in digital computing demands and healthcare needs, it makes sense that most of the professions on our Best Jobs list this year are related to the fields of math, science and healthcare. | 2019-04-22T18:00:49 | https://www.careercast.com/jobs-rated/10-best-jobs-2012 |
Surat, the country's biggest manufacturer of man-made fabric has over 170 textile markets consisting of nearly 50,000 textile trading shops on Ring Road area of the city due to which most of the textile goods transport companies have been functioning from residential areas in and around textile markets.
Acting on the complaint of residents, the Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC) has sealed over 70 transport godowns on Saturday and Monday as they were causing nuisance and traffic problems.
SMC officials said that of the total 300 textile goods transport companies, over 150 have been functioning from residential areas in and around textile markets.
Surat Textile Goods Transport Association (STGTA) began an indefinite strike from May 23 against such crackdown. Its president Yuvraj Deshle said that the SMC officials have sealed many godowns and offices stating that they had been causing traffic bottlenecks. The association is trying to meet the Surat municipal commissioner for the last three days, but to no avail. It said most of the godowns are out of residential areas and do not cause any nuisance to the public. | 2019-04-21T04:27:30 | https://www.indian-apparel.com/appareltalk/news_details.php?id=2384 |

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a 19-year-old woman, Ayomide Adebayo, for allegedly dumping her two-month-old baby in a bush in the Ikorodu area of the state, Punch reports.
It gathered that Adebayo, a secondary school leaver, was allegedly impregnated by one Martins Tewogbade, who lives in the Bariga area of the state.
“Last year, the man observed that she was pregnant. After prodding her, she said it was Martins (Tewogbade), an apprentice that impregnated her.

Online trading refers to trading in cryptocurrencies, stocks, commodities and others online for the sole purpose to reap in profit and earn money. The trader usually closes and opens the market position on the same day or else it can be kept for a long period of time. It can be a long position wherein the buying will be done outright or short position wherein selling is done at a particular price. There are people who only conduct day trading so that the overnight risk is avoided which is caused after the market is closed. Listed below are strategies to be followed while you conduct online trading. If at all you are not interested to conduct trading on your own, you can always use the assistance of Qprofit system, automated trading software to do the trading for you. You can read the full review here about the system. If you prefer to do manually, follow the strategies.
Look out for scenarios wherein demand and supply are imbalanced and use it as the entry points- If the supply is about to be exhausted and still there are buyers, the price will go up. If there is more supply and there are buyers, the price will decline. You need to identify these turning points and also do studies on the same by reading historical events.
Set a price target before you enter- If you are planning to buy a long position, then you need to decide beforehand how much profit you wish to make and also the stop-loss level if at all the trade is against you.
Try to become a patient trader- Successful traders do not conduct trading daily. If they feel there are no opportunities, they choose not to execute the trade on that day. It is always best to do so rather than to fall in for impatient desire.
Become a disciplined trader- Whenever you decide on a trading plan, you need to stick to that. Impulsive behavior is the worst enemy of a trader. Greed will make you be in a position for a longer time and the fear will make you bail out soon. You can’t expect to be rich just by executing one trade. | 2019-04-23T16:48:32 | http://tectivoo.com/2018/05/ |

6280A. You can read more about Qualcomm’s 3GSM report here (PDF).
The two devices are very similar in size and weight. You can see the on/off switches are both located on the same side, but the mini USB ports are located in different positions. The Holux has an external antenna attachment slot, while the Qstarz does not. In addition if you are one who likes to wear the GPS device around your neck like a necklace, then the Holux can cater to that need as it has the appropriate stringing holes. One advantage I discovered during testing: the Qstarz full bottom grip pad tended to provide better traction than the two small feet found on the Holux.
Battery-wise, the BT-Q818 boasts a 32-hour usage time with its 1100mAh battery. In real-world tests the 850mAh battery from the GPSlim236 likely will lack behind a bit. Note that both GPS units use batteries that are Nokia-compatible.
One special feature from the Qstarz is an “auto-off” feature – if the GPS unit does not receive a signal after a minute, it is smart enough to shut itself off in order to preserve its battery.
VisualGPSce (link) – an excellent freeware PocketPC GPS tracking software.
Mapking 2007 (link) – GPS navigation software for Hong Kong, which also has maps for many other Asian cities. I used the 3-day trial version that comes with the full HK map.
GPSVisualizer.com (link) – a very handy tool for creating and plotting those GPS log files.
On one of the coldest days of the year – oddly enough, falling in early March – we hit the road with our 3 devices. During the first leg of the trip, the BT-Q818 was paired with the 838Pro, and the GPSlim236 was paired with the Xda Zinc.
Of course, whilst deep inside the tunnel there was no signal. Upon resurfacing from the underwater tunnel, all 3 devices regained their signals within seconds of each other. I tried recording logs with VisualGPSce, but discovered the O2 Xda Zinc could not run both Mapking and VisualGPSce concurrently and hence the following map only shows the 838Pro/Qstarz BT-Q818 and D810/Qualcomm MSM 6275.
Once at the Peak, we proceeded to our destination: Burger King! The Double Whopper was too much for me to handle, but we did have a relatively clear day by today’s standards. Yes, the pollution has gotten really bad in Hong Kong, but on a clear day the view is still worth every penny!
It was with no surprise that with zero obstruction from buildings, we had the best satellite reception of all on the Peak.
We fired up Google Maps for Windows Mobile devices and activated its built-in GPS function.
The winding roads as well as heavy tree cover proved to be a challenge for the GPS units on the way down from the Peak, especially in the middle portion of this map on Magazine Gap Road. Once amongst the skyscrapers of Central, the paths diverged even further — for more details, zoom in on the top portion of the map.
This test was run on top of a double-decker bus, comparing the Qstarz and the Holux side-by-side. Here we can see that the path of the Qstarz is far superior on Nathan Road. While both devices had some trouble tracking around Prince Edward Road, the Holux also had trouble at the junction of Waterloo Road and Cornwall Street due to the fact that the vehicle stopped underneath a flyover.
On entering Lion Rock Tunnel, the GPSlim236 lost the signal first and upon exiting the tunnel, it was also slower than the Qstarz in reacquiring a fix.
Qstarz #1 lost fix temporarily on Nathan Road while #2 performed admirably throughout the journey.
Qstarz #1 seems to be less accurate, at least along the Nathan Road leg of the journey.
Other than the above two peculiarities, the two BT-Q818’s performed – as expected – identically.
We’ve certainly had a lot of fun testing these GPS units. GPS is becoming more commonplace as an increasing number of PDAs come with GPS built-in. I still believe GPS to be primarily geared for drivers, but can come in handy for pedestrians — I’ve used it to guide myself to a bus stop on more than one occasion during my tests! I am looking forward to my Kaiser that will come bulit-in with the SiRFstarIII chipset.
In short, satisfactory results were received from all 3 GPS units: the Qstarz BT-Q818, Holux GPSlim236, and Dopod D810. Whether your choice is for an external Bluetooth unit or a built-in GPS chip, you won’t go wrong with any of the afore-mentioned devices.
Very cool stuff! I have my LeadTek 9559X as a navigator, with the help from updated digigal map, it really helps! | 2019-04-20T16:43:42 | http://kaitech.hk/2007/03/gps-review-qstarz-bt-q818-vs-holux-gpslim236/?option=com_content&task=view&id=297&Itemid=28 |
I hope you had an excellent Christmas and a lovely New Year. We were all very proud of the children this Christmas and the production of the Nativity we performed at St. Patrick's Church. We hope you enjoyed watching, as much as we enjoyed performing it.
This term we have lots to look forward to; celebrating St.Patrick's Day, school trips and watching whole school assemblies. (Not forgetting Parents' Evening - Wed24th /Thurs 25th Feb). This term we will be studying a wide variety of topics, including 'Light' and 'Animals including Humans' in Science, 'Moving Monsters' in DT and gymnastics in PE.
During and after completion of the book, please spend time discussing the plot, characters, layout, new knowledge gained etc. as analysis of the text becomes increasingly important in the Juniors. I do ask that the children bring their books into school on a daily basis as this will enable me to write a comment in their Reading Diary when they have read in a small group or individually to me, or another adult.
All homework will be given on a Friday and will be collected in on the Wednesday of the following week. This gives you the flexibility to complete the homework at a convenient time to you.
1)We have been learning our times tables since September, (3's,4's,6,) to add to the ones already learnt in Y2. We are aiming to learn our 7's, 8's and 9's by Easter, so please help your children as much as possible. If your child is confident, try saying them out of order, or backwards as a challenge!
2) Please try to read with your child for 15minutes or so every night. Ask them questions about the text to encourage comprehension skills.
P.E lessons will take place on Tuesday and Thursday.
Your child is required to have their full P.E kit in class during term time and they will be sent home during half term for washing. Please can you ensure that all clothing is clearly labelled. | 2019-04-23T20:09:00 | http://www.stpatrickschurchtown.com/year-3mca/ |

Breaking news from Comics Beat , Image Comics is relocating to Portland, Oregon.
Image currently resides in Berkeley, CA and Image Central (non-editorial office) will be relocating. Rumors had surfaced the past and Image has declined comments on the move but if accurate this would mean Image Central and its relatively small staff will relocate.
Portland is already ripe with both creators and publishers; Oni-Press and Dark Horse and talents like Kelly Sue Deconnick. This will continue to keep the trend that Portland is "Heart Land" of comics in the U.S.
All this news is excellent for Geeks Rising staff writer and self published comic writer Logan Naugle who is moving up there this September. More News to follow as this story unfolds. | 2019-04-24T06:19:49 | https://www.geeksrising.com/allshows/2016/8/26/image-comics-makes-move-to-portland-or |
Review: New Menu at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom!
Editor’s Note: Burgers had previously been removed from the Pecos Bill menu altogether, but a new burger, the Southwest Burger, has recently been added. Also, rice bowls aren’t currently available.
Howdy hey there! After being closed for a few days, Pecos Bill Tale Tall Inn and Cafe is back up and running with a completely new menu!
I know this may be not-too-happy news for those old school Pecos Bill fans, but the new menu isn’t so bad. Let’s take a look at the changes!
So there was some speculation that since the restaurant was closed for a few days that they might have done some redecorating, but the atmosphere looks exactly the same!
Multiple dining rooms with rustic, Old West elements remain your air conditioned dining options.
Go a little further down the hallway to check out a dining room that fits a bit more into the Adventureland side of the restaurant (it straddles Frontierland and Adventureland after all).
Pecos Bill still watches over the ordering area.
The biggest change I could find inside was some of the cast members having fun with the new theme — sombreros!
But the Code of the West still stands.
So here’s what’s no longer on the menu: the Barbecue Pork Sandwich, Deluxe Chicken Sandwich, Angus Bacon Cheeseburger, Chili, Fries, and Corn on the Cob are all gone. But there are plenty of new items to choose from!
New entree items are a Fajita Platter with either beef or chicken, Burrito with beef or chicken, Rice Bowl with beef, chicken or roasted vegetables, and the Southwest Salad with Beef or Chicken. The Southwest Salad is the same as it was on the previous menu, but now you have a choice of beef or chicken.
Side options now are either a Chicken Enchilada Soup (which I’m looking forward to trying once the weather cools down a bit!) or chips. They also have some new dessert options: Churros and Sopaipillas.
So first thing I wanted to try: The Fajita Platter with chicken.
I heard chatter about the price of the new menu items being high, but I must say the proportions are really large! To me it seemed the portion sizes are larger than at other quick-service spots.
The chicken is served mixed with sautéed green peppers and onions and is marinated and well seasoned.
You also get a great helping of black beans and a large roasted green chile pepper.
Also served with the Fajita Platter was a side of 4 flour tortillas.
And you can make your own.
The other item I wanted to try was the Burrito! For this one I decided to go with beef.
This one is also served with the Cilantro Rice and Black Beans, but they are layered inside the burrito. The burrito isn’t rolled, so you can add as many toppings from the Fixin’s Bar as you want!
You get a lot of beef, which was finely shredded and tender and also had some great flavor. The main negative to this one was the set-up. The ingredients are placed next to each other so one side is all meat and the other is all rice and beans. I imagine cast members will soon learn to layer the ingredients so guests get a bit of each in every bite.
Now let’s take a peek at those new toppings from the Fixin’s bar!
For those of you who like to customize your meal, the burrito is going to be the perfect choice.
Individual packets of sour cream.
A delicious Chipotle Ranch Dressing.
Banana peppers, if you’re looking to kick up the heat.
What might be my favorite new topping: a verde salsa that added great flavor without adding any spice.
A delicious dark salsa that added a slight spice, but not too much!
A fresh-tasting Pico de Gallo.
Some lime wedges to add some extra lime flavoring to the rice if you’d like.
And finally, some roasted corn mixed with onions and tomatoes, which I used to mix with my black beans! So there are plenty of ways to customize your meal here! I can’t wait to see how some of the DFB readers get creative here.
Also new to the menu are Mexican influenced desserts, and since I can get Churros right outside at the Frontierland Churro cart, I decided to venture out and try the Sopaipillas.
Sopaipillas are a fried pastry with a nice crispy outside and flakey, layered inside — doused with powdered sugar.
The texture of these was great and they had a nice, moderate amount of sweetness. For those of you who want to add some extra sweetness, just ask a Cast Member for a side of chocolate dipping sauce, which usually comes with the Churros.
For those of you die-hard Pecos Bill fans who loved the old menu, I am strongly suggesting for you to give this new menu a try. Tortuga Tavern fans, you will find this menu very similar to their Mexican influenced items — and at least Pecos Bill doesn’t close seasonally!
You can always get Barbecued Pork Sandwiches, Chicken Sandwiches, and Burgers over at Cosmic Rays if Mexican fare isn’t your thing. But I must say that I throughly enjoyed everything!
Will you be trying to new menu items at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe? What menu item will you miss the most?
I went there for dinner tonight during MNSSHP. I was very disappointed when I found out they had changed the menu but decided to give it a try. The prices are steep but portion sizes were good. I wish I could say the same for the flavor. Neither my rice nor chicken had any kind of flavor. The chicken was dry and tasted like frozen chicken that hadn’t been given time to thaw and then had been sitting under a heat lamp for an hour after cooking. I am hoping that this was only because it’s a new menu and they haven’t become accustomed to making the items but I will not be going back for quite a while.
I tend to go to Disney with picky eaters who prefer burgers and chicken nuggets, so it’s kind of limiting to only have one place with that kind of food in the Magic Kingdom now. That said, I’m pretty excited by that guac and queso.
Mexican food in Frontierland? Uh, okay.
We weren’t regulars at Pecos Bill’s anyway. Disney counter service burgers range from gross to edible. By I don’t see this change luring us in.
I’m tempted. Think we’ll have to try this on our next day trip.
I like Burritos and I’ve had authentic ones which are different from the fast food chain burritos, so, if I was in the mood for Mexican, I would def go here.
That’s crazy that there is no plain rice option. A ton of people have that genetic predisposition where cilantro tastes like soap/cleanser/poison. Hope Pecos remedies that soon.
Our favorite food at Pecos Bill’s was the taco salad. We are quite disappointed to see it gone. We will be going to WDW soon. We are not sure we will try Pecos Bill’s new items. Why don’t they offer taco salad & meat quesadillas? We would eat those.
Thank you for this review! When I heard about the change, I wasn’t happy at all. We loved the fixins bar of the old menu. Now that the fixins bar is back but in a different way plus the size of portion for the money, we’ll definitely give it a try.
I’m excited about trying the new menu. I love Mexican!
Just curious though, anyone know if fries or chips are available as substitutes for the kids meals? Carrots and applesauce don’t go over well with my son!
I am so disappointed about the changes, I’m coming Christmas and Spring break, but I will NOT be eating at Pecos Bill, I always ate at least once or twice a trip because the burgers were wonderful and the bar to go with it. Sorry, another disney disappointment and I’m a family club member. Off for a new place to eat in the Magic Kindom.
No more Pecos for us! If we all can’t find something to eat at one restaurant we skip it. Loved old Pecos… new one, not so much.
Um, are you people all insane? The food is wonderful….such a nice change!!
This is awful. Pecos Bill’s was one of the only “fast” restaurants I liked eating at in Disney. It was my absolute favorite and now it is gone. All of this food looks horrible. I hate beans, I hate chili peppers, I hate spicy food, I really just hate Mexican food. There is nothing on this menu that I would ever eat. This makes me really sad.
I’m looking forward to trying this new menu out! We liked the previous menu but missed not having a southwest option since Tortuga Tavern is always closed when we go. The queso looks yummy!
We went there tjis weekend ..they purposely seperate it so yiu mix or not mix..it is a production line each cast member has a scoop to add.. Also the beed is very salty …hopefully they fix that . We had both chicken and beef rice bowl …chicken was great . You can add to your plate from the bar dont waste the cups ..
We ate here over the weekend and have to say it was wonderful! My only suggestion for the topping bar is shredded lettuce and a plain rice option would be good.
Anyone notice in the comments section of the Disney Parks Blog’s post on the menu change: “If you love BBQ, you’ll love the changes coming soon to Tortuga Tavern!”?? So maybe if Mexican isn’t your thang, there will be a new option on the horizon!
Have some plain rice and I will try it! I can’t eat cilantro. It’s horrible!
Does anyone know if you can order the fajitas or burrito without beans?
Erin, of course you can order the fajita platter without beans! Disney is great with customizing orders.
My family has always liked going to Pecos Bill’s because it was one of the very few places to get a good angus burger with fries and all ” the fixins” . We are saddened to see this new menu. It seems more traditional in a frontierland to have beef burgers and not fajitas and burritos. I like Mexican food, but everytime I have tried it at a place other than a traditonal Mexican restaurant, it does not taste good. So, we are very disappointed to hear of the menu change.
I cannot wait to try and really looking forward, as others say above there are still plenty of places to get burgers or nuggets with fries.
It’s appetites like yours that make them adding more and more italian restaurants!
Live a little, try some good food!
For the people who are complaining about no longer being able to get chicken nuggets or a burger at Peco’s, stop complaining. You can get almost everyone that was on the old menu at Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe in Tomorrowland INCLUDING the toppings bar.
Why does WDW always screw up something that was successful? Pecos Bills had the best burgers. We used to love the taco salad until the removed it from the menu. I wish they would have just left it alone.
I’m pretty excited about the change to the menu! I always want to eat in Tortuga Tavern, but it’s closed almost every time I’m there. I love Mexican food so this will be a treat for me. And shredded cheese and guacamole on the all-you-can-eat fixins bar?! That’s pretty awesome!
I agree with Mike V! There is a whole world of food to enjoy. I saw a person in line at Harambe Market at Animal Kingdom ask what sauce is on the flatbread sandwich. The hostess answered “Tzatziki ,” and the person yelled, “WHO???” And I always wonder at folks who go to Epcot during the Food & Wine Festival and seek out a place to get fries and nuggets. I wish burgers and nuggets didn’t have to be at every restaurant to keep people from freaking right out. There’s so much more out there. And this is coming from an American born in the Midwest who grew up eating only basic American food.
I loved this quick service when we were there last week. I am a huge fan of the new menu and my chicken fajitas were so good. I know it’s shocking to some with the changes, but I loved it, and I can’t wait to go back and put this on my to do list!
Loved the old taco salad and was intrigued with the new menu and topping bar. It was very good and a nice addition to MK quick service. We ate there a couple of times, trying the fajitas (chicken and steak) and the chicken rice bowl. Food was a little slow to come out, but everything was fresh, hot, very well seasoned and tasty. The topping bar is seriously awesome, it almost had me forget the lack of plastic cheese. All you can eat guac, sour cream and grated cheese! The pinkish sauce is not queso, it’s chipotle ranch, and it is very good too.
We ate at Pecos Bill a couple days ago. Using the quick service dining plan, this was a great value because of all the food we got — plenty for our toddler to eat off our plates instead of purchasing her own meal. I had the fajitas with beef, which were good — not mind-blowing but good. My husband had the salad with beef, which he enjoyed, but my mother-in-law had the rice bowl with beef and that looked like the biggest winner. We all enjoyed the entrees. The churros were a little tough, but the sopapillas were the best part of the meal. So light and airy. We all loved those! Enjoyed that they had a yogurt option for dessert, which we got included on the dining plan and which went straight to the toddler. I love Mexican food, so for me this menu is a hit.
So I guess if you don’t like cilantro you’re pretty much looking for another place to dine. 3 out of the 4 menu choices come with a generous serving of cilantro rice – yuck!
I’m so excited to try the new menu. This is exactly what Disney needs. Have been to Pecos Bills in the past and was not impressed. I would have never eaten there again, but now I can’t wait to try it. I really don’t understand all of the complaints about the change. There are plenty of places to get a burger and fries.
We ate there on Thursday. It was pretty good overall. Just so you know, the “queso” you have pictured is not queso…it is chipotle ranch, which tasted good, but my daughter was expecting queso after reading your review, and she was grossed out when she dipped her quesadilla into what she thought was queso. Needless to say , she does not like ranch. I agree with a previous comment that the churros are way too crunchy. If you’re on the dining plan and have to pick a dessert option, I would definitely recommend the sopapillas over the churros.
Holly and Stephenie D. — Thanks so much for the update about the queso vs. ranch question. I’ve corrected the text to indicate that it’s a dressing, not a cheese sauce.
There still is a burger!
Heather — YES! One burger (the Southwest Burger) did return. We did a news post to announce it, but didn’t add an editor’s note to this post. I’ve taken care of that now. 🙂 Thank you!
Not much for vegetarians. Sure you could order without meat (but probably pay for the meat anyway). It would be nice to see a salad option without meat. Usually Mexican is great for vegetarians with all the rice / beans / veggies.
Wish a cheese quesadilla was offered. Can that be ordered?
If you check out the menu on the Disney website, it is different from what is listed here – especially for kids. It has uncrustables, mini corndogs and mac and cheese listed. For adults, no rice bowls are listed. Has it changed since this review was done? Anyone been here recently?
Cristin — Yes, the rice bowls didn’t last long. You can see a post with our most recent visit here. I’ll make a note on this post that the rice bowls are off of the menu for now.
Unlimited guac. There is nothing better.
With these changes are gluten sensitive people able to find a selection to eat. Can’t eat anything with flour shells or meat cooked with flour base. Miss the good burgers even without the bun.
Hi, Steve! If you click this link and scroll down, you’ll see the allergy information for gluten free options. Hope this helps! | 2019-04-25T18:27:41 | http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2015/10/04/review-new-menu-at-pecos-bill-tall-tale-inn-and-cafe-in-disney-worlds-magic-kingdom/ |

How have I NOT create a Travel post in 2014 yet?
Enough chatter. I have a ton of pictures to show you guys today. I went to Florida in early October (so this post is a little late. Oops!) and I visited two friends down there in Ft. Lauderdale and Palm Beach for a stellar weekend of warm weather and lots o' food and drinks. I didn't have too many set plans so please enjoy this collection of randomness! Here it go!
The minute I got to Ft. Lauderdale, I met up with my friend Katie and we hit up a restaurant so we could get booze and food. And this view! First glimpses of the beach!
We ate at LuLu's, which was pretty decent. To be honest, I don't' even remember for certain what I ate because I just devoured it. I think I had a bacon and blue cheese burger? Whatever it was, it was good!
Our hotel room for the night was at the Marriott BeachPlace Towers. Holy crap! This villa is the same size as my actual apartment in Hoboken. We had a full kitchen, a dining room with a table that seats 6, a pantry/laundry closet with washer and dryer (What!! I don't even have that in my own apartment!), a balcony, and a doorbell. Shut up. I needto move in right away. Neeeeed.
The view from our balcony toward the Intercoastal Waterway.
Housekeeping left a turtle for us!
After ooh'ing and ahh'ing over the room, we grabbed a beverage and headed down to the beach to enjoy the sunshine and warm weather.
We were able to sneak about an hour or two down on the beach before the rain came over to welcome me to Ft. Lauderdale. Rain and sunshine at the same time. Tropical weather like whoa.
We were heading to a show that night downtown so we checked out the scene beforehand. I was intrigued by these figures outside the Irish bar.
Katie and I ended up at Himmarshee Public House and these Lobster Nachos. I'm speechless about them. They're that good.
Quick story about this sandwich: Katie got a chicken sandwich at dinner but could only eat half. So of course we asked our server to save the other half for after the show. But then my old roommate showed up while we were waiting in line to enter the music venue and since she hadn't eaten dinner yet we sent her back to this place to eat the other half of the sandwich. Random much? Obviously.
A cycle party quadracycle parked next to our table outside. This thing can hold up to 15 people and in some places you can even drink while pedaling. (You're not fully operating the cycle. There is a driver who is certified and sober.) This is a pretty interesting idea. I'd love to try it but I'm pretty sure this won't fly in NYC.
Soooo ready for the show to start!
That night, we discovered that the "painting" over the bed in the hotel actually lit up!a What?! I tried to sleep with this on because I thought it was super cool but I lasted for about 5 minutes before I had to shut it off.
The next day I drove up to Palm Beach to spend some time with my old roommate. This is the view from her new condo! Love it!
OK, just one more sunset view from my guest room in the penthouse! You know...the flossy flossy!
We walked over to City Place to check out the scene.
Say "Yes!" to my awkward pose in front of a sign!
Clearly I need this pina colada. I mean, look at my smile.
And this platter. Why am I hungry again all of a sudden?
Did we surprise you? I bet we did.
Time for drinks at another restaurant nearby. I love this sign. Truth!
This band was jammin' some 90's tunes behind the bar. I love the way this venue was set up. I've never seen anything like this before.
In the courtyard, there was another live band playing music.
Trying to get my roommate kicked out of her new condo, but not really.

Text “CANCUN” to 301-695-9373 to enter this contest!!!
There is no greater joy in the world than a fresh and tasty sandwich! Each week I will be tasting a different sandwich from South Market Sandwich Co. for our contest! This week I learned that the Cancun is the perfect pico delivery system!!!!
I almost cried. That first bite almost made me tear up. Everything works from the pico to the cheese to the mayo. This is joy. | 2019-04-24T21:01:04 | http://www.wfre.com/2019/01/23/sandwich-of-the-week-15-cancun/ |
Sixty years ago, the discovery of bodies at 10 Rillington Place in Notting Hill, London, led to one of the most sensational, shocking and controversial serial murder cases in British criminal history - the case of John Christie. Much has been written about the Christie killings and the fate of Timothy Evans who was executed for murders Christie later confessed to - the story still provokes strong feeling and speculation. However, most the books on the case have been compiled without the benefit of all the sources that are open to researchers, and they tend to focus on Evans in an attempt to clear him of guilt. In addition, many simply repeat what has been said before. Therefore, a painstaking, scholarly reassessment of the evidence - and of Christie's life - is overdue, and that is what Jonathan Oates provides in this gripping biography of a serial killer. | 2019-04-20T22:30:07 | https://www.hoferlife.at/de/ebook-download/sozialwissenschaften-recht-und-wirtschaft/politik-gesellschaft-arbeit/sonstiges/john-christie-of-rillington-place/p/2013092400511 |

Finding files – searching for files by name, size, use, modify time, etc.
Assignment #05 HTML will be out soon – using GLOB wildcard patterns, selecting files using GLOB, redirection and pipes. This assignment requires reading Shell GLOB patterns and Shell I/O Redirection and then doing Worksheet #04 HTML and Worksheet #05 HTML.
First, do the weekly readings on File System and Pathnames, Directories, and Finding Files, also listed above.
These worksheets require you to understand the weekly readings, above.
This assignment requires you to understand the material in the readings and the two worksheets.

The practice test itself is not part of your course grade, but these quizzes are part of your course grade. Do the quizzes for marks.
This week, we learn how to use absolute and relative pathnames and then learn how to find files.
Draw File System Diagrams on paper to understand where files are when you do the worksheets, the assignments, and the tests and exams!
See the note in Assignment #03 HTML about drawing file system diagrams on paper. Do it!
See my online timetable for how to make an office appointment to see me if you want your account back.
You can tell whether a file system name is a directory or a file by using the file command or by looking for a letter d on the left in the output of ls -l. Ordinary files are indicated by a dash - character on the left. The first two output lines, below, are files. The last three output lines are directories.
The rmdir command will only remove an empty directory.
You know this from doing Section 5 of Worksheet #02 HTML.
How do you remove a directory and everything inside it? You know the answer from doing the Worksheets, especially Section 5 of Worksheet #03 HTML.
The copy command cp will not copy directories unless you use the right option. You know this option from doing Section 3 of Worksheet #03 HTML.
You learn this in Worksheet #03 HTML.
You will need to know this for Assignment #03 HTML.
mv cal.txt ../../ >cal.txt # WRONG: what is now in cal.txt ?
No example in any of the notes or worksheets ever uses redirection and cp or mv together. These commands do not produce anything on standard output that is worth redirecting. Usually, the commands produce no output at all. Do not use redirection with mv or cp.
If the assignment asks you to redirect the output into a file in a specific directory, then only the second answer above is correct. The first answer, using mv, will have the wrong pathnames in it.
No employer wants to pay you to type six commands when one will do the job. Work smarter, not harder.
No employer wants to pay you to type ten commands when one will do the job. Work smarter, not harder.
If a pathname doesn’t work, use ls to find out why. Usually it’s because you’re spelling it wrong. Use the TAB key and the shell will complete the pathname for you, with no spelling errors.
Don’t be this guy. No employer wants to pay you to type ten commands when one will do the job. Work smarter, not harder. Do the worksheets!
You can use the whois command on Linux to identify which country is responsible for an IP address, or use a Web Whois Lookup.
The Linux whois command is blocked from use at Algonquin College, except if you are on the CLS. You can’t use the whois command in your own Linux machines while you are on campus. Use whois on the CLS or do a lookup via the web interface instead.

Horus, Harmakhis, and Harpokrates in Chapter III of V. and "Under the Rose"
Reading: Horus, Harmakhis, and Harpokrates in Chapter III of V. and "Under the Rose"
In both Chapter III of V. and "Under the Rose," Hugh Bongo-Shaftsbury appears at the Fink restaurant wearing a hollowed-out ceramic hawk's head. "'Harmakhis'" he explains. "'God of Heliopolis and chief deity of Lower Egypt. Utterly genuine, this: a mask used in the ancient rituals.… Literally Horus on the horizon.'" This casual reference to Horus is more important than it appears.

Skin Care Centre boiler upgrade was done in 2011. This 600 MBH Aerco Condensing boiler replaced an atmospheric 1,000 MBH boiler which largely served the main air handling unit in the building. Control strategy was implemented to optimize boiler temperature for condensing whenever possible. Air handling unit outdoor air fraction was optimized for energy savings and allowed downsizing of boiler.
Thanks to Lockerbie and Hole for the installation work, VGH for assistance, Murray Mechanical and Fortis for the boiler and generous incentive!
The VGH Child Care Centre (Kids In General) condensing boiler upgrade was done in 2012. The new Viessmann 380 MBH boiler was installed to replace existing mid efficient legacy boiler and new controls and zone heating and ventilation strategy was employed. Energy reductions for fuel are proven at over 47%.

Last Christmas, Alma’s gift from my mom and step-dad was a camping trip with her cousin Liam and their dads. They decided to go to Silver Fall State Park. Of course, it turned out to be the first rainy weekend in months. They went anyway, and decided to play the camping part by ear.
When they got to the park, it was sunny and warm. They hiked around the waterfalls, in the woods, and had lots of fun. They had a picnic lunch in the lodge and hiked some more. Alma and Liam are just a few months apart in age, so it was fun for them to get to spend so much time together. One of the stories they came home with was from the caves. Alma said to Liam, “Will you protect me?” and Liam replied, “I AM SCARED.” Alma has been looking forward to her camping trip for months. She would tell me, “I’m going camping with Grams and Grandpa. You are not coming. Harriet is not coming. Daddy is coming.” She was very clear about this. There was no way I was going to sneak into the car. Of course, the rain showed up. They embraced the water and got soaked. At this point, it didn’t matter if the rain was falling, or the creek was splashing. It was warm enough that it was still fun. It was so wet, though, that everyone decided to head home. They realized they would have just spent the whole night in their tents as a fire would have been impossible and everything would be too wet to sit on. I don’t think Alma was too disappointed. They got to do all the fun things of camping without sleeping on the wet ground. I can’t wait for this to be an annual tradition. Maybe next year Grams and Grandpa will take Alma and Liam without their parents… maybe they’ll take Harriet, too!
The photos in this post were all taken by Jesse. He did a great job, didn’t he?
The blog has kind of gotten away from me this week. I’ve had a few posts planned, but my camera has been held hostage in my parents’ car. If I take some of our homebrew, they say I can have it back. But until I can get around to doing that, I thought I would just write.
Right now, I’m sitting at a coffee shop. My back is to the fire and there is a distinct Autumny feel in the air. It’s colder, there’s a sharp breeze. I can smell wood smoke from fires in the neighborhood.
I’m sharing a long, wooden table with two older women and a sharply dressed boy. They each have a copy of the New York Times crossword puzzle. They are discussing all the answers, and it’s one of the most heartwarming things I’ve ever seen.
I think a lot about what I can do for my kids that will help them turn out like this boy. There’s something that I do each time I substitute teach. I look at all the girls in the class and decide which ones I want Alma and Harriet to be like. It’s always the girls who are creative, funny, personable. The ones who are helpful and comfortable speaking with a grown-up. Not necessarily the most popular, or the ones with the best hair. One day I wrote down all the things that the good girls are like – they draw, they read, they participate, they volunteer, they have boy friends, but not boyfriends (although, a boyfriend like this crossword puzzle boy would be fine with me).
As Alma and Harriet grow up, I am learning more and more about their personalities. Alma is gregarious; she says hello to everyone and often invites them to come to our house. Harriet is more reserved, and very stubborn; she can throw an epic fit if she doesn’t get what she wants.
Another thing I do when I sub is try to find the girls who most remind me of my girls, and this isn’t always the same girl as the one I described above. For Alma, it’s usually the girl who is most like I was in middle school.
So far, I think that Alma is pretty much just like me – she looks like me, she acts like me. In middle school, I was a weirdo. I had lots of friends, but wasn’t the queen bee or anything. I liked musicals, dance, music, and boys. I danced around the hallways like a goofball. My locker was very ‘cultural’ – I had ticket stubs, postcards of Monet’s paintings – and I was very proud of this fact. I’m pretty sure Alma will be a lot like that.
I’m not as sure about Harriet yet. Granted, she isn’t talking much yet, so it’s a bit hard to guess what her personality will be. I imagine that her fits are a result of her inability to communicate. I also image that her stubborn streak will stay. That’s okay – there’s nothing wrong with a strong woman with strong opinions and convictions. Lean in, Harriet. I just need to make sure to encourage her to use her strength for good and noble causes.
Well, they just finished the puzzle. Them women congratulated the young man for his skillful participation. With that, I will bring this to a close. If you’re still reading, thank you for letting me ramble on. Have a great weekend!
Our Fourth Annual Pumpkin Patch Playgroup. I could write a lot about this, but I’d basically just say the same thing I’ve said before (here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here). I won’t put you, the reader, through that again. I’ll just say that I love raising my kids with these people.
Before I post the photos from this year, let’s take a little trip down memory lane, shall we?
2012: So many Ergos, so few people. This was one of our first organized outings. We have grown in families and children. Most kids weren’t walking yet. Leia and I were almost pregnant, but this was it! Seven kids in this photo!
2013: Quite a bit bigger. A few pregnant moms, two new babies, eleven kids. 2014: Even more! More families, more babies, more pregnant moms! Just more! Fifteen kids (I think!) 2015: Wow! So many kids! So many people! No pregnant women (as far as I know!) Nineteen kids! Today was one for the books. We were planning on going to our usual, traditional farm. Someone (Jane I think) checked their website and saw that they didn’t open until noon. We were all on Facebook discussing what to do. My family was already in the car, ready to go, so I suggested a change of venue (after changes of time and other ideas had been thrown out there). Everyone agreed and spread the word. It might not sound impressive, but it was quite amazing to watch 10 moms discuss and agree and mobilize all within about three minutes. I told you this playgroup was special. I love these people.
Hayride, pumpkin picking, corn mazing, fun, fun, fun. It was an oddly beautiful day. I love these sunny, crisp days, but I have to admit, I’m getting anxious for the rain to come (and stay for a while). Call me crazy!
Tonight I went to an art show where two of my photographs are displayed.
I think it’s pretty cool. I submitted a few photos with #seenineugene to be considered for a month long exhibit. Two of my photos were chosen to be displayed, as well as to be in a photo book. The proceeds of the sale of prints and books go to a local art nonprofit. We went do to the new Barn Light were they have the photos displayed with our friends. The kids ran around and played. I especially like the photos they chose because both my daughters are involved. There’s the photo of Harriet and Elsa playing in Elsa’s playhouse: And one of Alma sitting at Humble Bagel. When Alma saw this photo hanging on the wall, she was pretty excited. She recognized herself right away. I know this doesn’t make me a successful professional photographer, but it sure makes me feel like one. I never thought that I would have my photographs on display, with a real exhibit opening night.
If you want to see my photos, along with 98 other great photos, head down to the Barn Light East, grab a cup of coffee, check them out, and maybe even buy a print or one of the photo books. You can even say you know one of the artists!
I got this idea from my friend Jodie (wife of author Anthony St. Clair). Jodie is a beautiful artist of many things. She is always creating, and her Instagram account is totally inspiring. I mean, I never thought I’d want to take up cross-stitch again, but she has me thinking about it. You should totally follow her.
I thought this was a great idea, but that Alma didn’t really need it. Then I started listening to Alma. Ever since my parents told her they were taking her camping, she’s been packing and talking all about it. I have to constantly remind her, “No, Alma, not today. Not this weekend… in 7 weeks!” and so on.
Today, on the way home from my mom’s house, I ran through EVERYTHING we’re doing in the next three months… “Okay, on Thursday we’re going apple picking. Then on Saturday you’ll see cousin Liam. Then we’re having friends over…. (etc etc etc)… then it’s Christmas, then dad’s birthday, then new year’s, then your birthday.” I think it might have overwhelmed her a little. Ha!
Anyway, Jodie’s calendar popped into my mind and I asked Alma if she’d like me to make one for her. Of course she said yes. So I did. I’ll add things as they come up, and she can cross off the days. I hope this helps!
We’ll put it on the kitchen door where we have lots of other important lists and stuff. She said she wants it in her room, but her room is crazy town right now, so I know it will get lost or destroyed in there.
Customized Banner – New At CaroMadeCo!
I am so excited about this new listing I have at CaroMadeCo! It is my first customized banner. I’ve worked with people who have ordered my Happy Birthday banners in the past to help them customize, but this is a little different.
For this banner you will order however many letter you’d like, to spell out a name (like Harriet), a phrase (like GO DUCKS), or anything else you’d like!
This is exciting because it’s totally customized – color, phrase, ribbon, shapes.
I also think it looks pretty great with the Happy Birthday banners, so get one for everyone in your family and hang them together for an extra bit of birthday fun.

One of our play group’s annual traditions is to go apple picking in September. We go to my favorite orchards and spend the morning picking apples, playing with the farm stuff, tasting cider, feeding the goats, and welcoming Autumn.
As is evidenced by this gif, this year was fun. Thanks Hannah (from The Lighthearted Life of HMV) for being so lighthearted and fun!
This year was also warmer than it should have been if you ask me. Last year was sort of drizzly and that was much more Autumnal. I love this event because it assures us that Autumn is, in fact, coming. Even when it’s 80 degrees and the day before was over 90, the apples on the trees are a promise of cooler weather, and darker skies. And nothing beats biting into a crisp, juicy apple picked directly off a tree in a century old orchard. I can pretend that there’s a crisp breeze blowing down the rows of trees, if only for a moment.
My camera was doing strange things, and it turns out that the only photos that were in focus (or mostly in focus, anyway) were of Alma, Harriet, Rory, and Poppy. I swear that there were lots of other people there! In fact, I think it was one of the best turn outs we’ve had at a playgroup lately – nine out of the ten families! As I’ve said many times before, I love our little tribe of families in this group, and all our traditions. Next month is our 4th Annual Pumpkin Patch trip, a perennial favorite!
Forgive me, children, Autumn is coming. I can make no excuses for my silly ideas. You will just have to get used to it.
We went in, both kids were nervous, but had no tears and no problems.
Alma didn’t want to let go of my leg, but I handed her off to her new, sweet teacher. As I left her room, I turned and snapped a photo of my big, brave girl.
Harriet didn’t want to let go of my leg, but I handed her off to Rachel, our wonderful friend who has helped us raise our girls from infancy. Harriet was excited to show Rachel her “coa” necklace. If you know Harriet, you know that “coa” means unicorn. If you know Rachel, you know that she shares a love of “coas” with all young children. I gave Harriet a hug and slipped out of the room.
The energy in the hallway was electric. Parents were smiling, looking nervous, asking each other how their kids did with the drop-off.
Leaving the school, I could see Alma already digging happily in the sandbox, her favorite place last year. A new friend was playing with her.
Leaving the school, I felt like I was forgetting something. I didn’t have a stroller with my baby in it. Instead, my baby was back in Alma’s old classroom, now her own. And my baby isn’t a baby anymore. She’s now a big preschooler who can talk about unicorns and dance and play.
I did the usual walk that Harriet and I did countless times last year. It was the same walk, but so, so different. I had a backpack carrying all my things instead of just stashing it all in the stroller. When I saw a squirrel scurry up a tree, I didn’t have anyone to point it out to. I could walk as fast as I wanted, and never had to stop to adjust a blanket or hand out snacks.
Even the destination of my walk is different. It’s still the college campus, but this year it’s so much more. This past year has been so hard. So, so hard. Jesse had a job that didn’t make him happy. Then he was laid off (more of a relief than a scare) and had a month of unemployment. Then he got a job that makes him happy. Now when I walk to campus, I walk towards Jesse. The whole campus has a different feel knowing that Jesse is here, doing a job that doesn’t feel like work, doing a job that helps people, doing a job that makes a difference.
Right now I’m sitting in a coffee shop across the street from Jesse’s building, all alone. It’s quiet and I have time to think and write and reflect.
I don’t have anyone to point out squirrels to, but that’s okay. I’m going to be fine. In fact, I think I’m going to really like this year.
This girl is starting school next week. Like for real, three mornings a week, with teachers and friends, school. It’s the same class Alma was in last year, with the same teachers. I love the school and am so excited for Harriet to go along with Alma this year.
Of course, even though they said she won’t need one, I made Harriet her very own backpack.
I used the same Oliver + S pattern I used for Alma’s backpack and I loved it (I always love Oliver + S patterns). I made it even more simple and didn’t do any of the pockets or anything. I even machine sewed the lining to the zipper instead of doing a blind stitch, mostly because I’m lazy.
The backpack came together all in a day, after having the pieces cut out on my sewing table for over a week. That’s pretty much how I roll.
I gave it to Harriet when she woke up from her nap and she was smitten. She loves backpacks more than anything. She wore it around the whole afternoon. I am so happy that she gets to take a little mama-made backpack with her to school. I can’t wait until she starts filling it up with some Harriet-made creations.
We are so lucky to have great friends who let us come along on their summer vacation. This year was more fun than last, mostly because the kids are getting so much cooler, and we spent almost a whole week in Coronado.
Seriously, look at these cool kids.
Yes, I understand that not all of them are looking at the camera, but you can almost see all their faces, and they are all under six.
We get to stay at our friend’s dad’s house, and it’s an incredible house. So incredible that people tend to look into the yard as they pass by. My favorite part of this is that it’s an amazing house that looks like a daycare center when we’re there. We have a bounce house set up, a working Mini Cooper, a multitude of balls and toys, and six noisy and active children. It cracks me up to think about what people must think.
This year we had grand plans of going to the zoo, or a baseball game, or something. We did none of these things. We did meet some great friends from Peace Corps for lunch, and my cousin and his sweet family came down for a day at the beach. Other than that we just stuck close to home.
When Michael, Michelle and Avalon were here, we got to take all the girls to the beach. Michael took to older girls to build castles and play in the water when Michelle and I hung out on some chairs. Harriet did this amazing thing where she seriously conked out the second we got to the beach – she did this every time we went to the ocean. She never sleeps in my arms, so I enjoyed every second of holding her sweet sleepy self.
We also walked to a cafe for lunch while Harriet took another nap back at the house. I love seeing Alma and Avalon together. They are sweet friends and sweet cousins. My girls are also lucky that Avalon outgrows her princess dresses and hands them down! We spent a lot of time outdoors. The kids took turns jumping, driving, running, making mischief, and having mini meltdowns.
We ate all our meals on the front porch.
One night we had just finished dinner when I noticed that the sun was starting to go down. I said, “Let’s go take pictures with the sunset!” Oh my gosh, you won’t believe how fast we mobilized our 6 kids and got out the door and across the street. The light was perfect.
I love so much that we are building memories for our children where they get to play and interact with these other families. These friendships are important as they grow up. It gives them a sense of where they come from and a confidence in where they’re going.
And I love that we are building memories with these families. The kids are all fantastic and hilarious. Their parents are beautiful, wonderful people I’m happy to have as my co-parents. | 2019-04-24T03:47:26 | http://andthenthey.com/tag/kids/ |

It might only be the second week of September, but Hamilton is already planning for the holiday season. With only 15 weeks until Christmas, the city has officially begun looking for three picture-perfect trees to display across the city.
Hamilton is asking its residents who either own a Christmas tree farm or have a large Spruce tree on their property to consider donating it to the city.
Each tree must be at least 40 feet tall, be accessible from the street and be clear from any overhead wires.
The trees will be cut down and transported at no cost to the owners.
There’s been no official word on when the trees will be picked up or when they’ll be available for viewing. That being said, it has been confirmed that the trees will be on display at Gore Park, City Hall and Memorial Square in Dundas.
If you or someone you know has a large tree that’d make the perfect holiday centerpiece, please call 905-546-2424, ext. 4392.
Are you still in a summer mood or are you ready for the cooler months? What other kind of holiday decorations does the city need? Let us know in the comments. | 2019-04-22T18:51:45 | https://urbanicity.com/hamilton/city/2018/09/hamilton-on-the-hunt-for-2018-christmas-trees/ |

Over the last 10 years, since co-founding the WAV Group with Marilyn Wilson and Victor Lund, I have had the pleasure of working with many wonderful clients including MLSs, technology companies, franchises and brokers all over the world. From strategic planning and research to helping brokers and MLSs choose their next technology platform to creating the first MLS in Brazil, I have enjoyed every aspect of the consulting world and being a WAV Group partner.
Recently, however, I made a strategic decision to return to my roots and focus on the technology sector of our industry. I grew up in the real estate technology arena working with great companies like PRC, Interealty, Moore Data and Microsoft and as a consultant I have had a chance to work with many of the great technology companies that serve us today. I realized this is where my real passion is today and I want to be a part of the exciting changes that I see happening, particularly in the broker/agent sector.
As I have written in numerous white papers and articles much of the technology serving our real estate companies and agents is fragmented today. Brokers often have 10 to 15 different products trying to solve the numerous needs of their company. Unfortunately this evolution of product acquisition leads to a disjointed array of over priced technology and little ability to truly share data across the entire real estate company spectrum. Exciting changes are taking place, however, that are solving these problems that I will now be a part of.
I am very happy to announce that the company I believe will be a leader in these innovations, Real Estate Webmasters, has asked me to join their company as Vice President of Business Development. Over the next few months I will be completing my existing WAV Group consulting projects and joining REW full time in that capacity.
Key to my decision to join Real Estate Webmasters is the vision of CEO, Morgan Carey, and his commitment to create a truly elegant and powerful, end-to-end broker/agent suite of products. Having had the pleasure to work with Morgan, as a consultant, and to witness their impressive growth and product development, it became clear we are truly aligned in how we believe technology needs to continue to evolve. When I was asked to join the team I realized it was a perfect fit.
In my role as VP, Business Development I will be focusing on expanding our enterprise level partners and also assisting in planning, research and overall product strategy.
Rest assured WAV Group is in great hands and will continue to thrive under Marilyn Wilson and Victor Lund and I can’t say enough about my experience in working with them and growing our brand over the last 10 years. They are my dear friends and there will be much I will miss but I am also very excited to move into my new role. I am sure we will continue to work closely in the years to come and I know who I will call when I need consulting help.
Real Estate Webmasters is based in Nanaimo, on beautiful Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. They serve clients across all of North America and have been known for years by elite brokers and agents as the leader in custom web technologies, lead generation and SEO. Today they offer a full line of web products, fully integrated mobile technology with services ranging from entry level to fully customized.
Inman Conference/San Francisco – From July 15th to the 18th, I will be attending the Inman Conference in San Francisco and would welcome the opportunity to meet with you to let you know more about Real Estate Webmasters and my new role with REW.
REW Summit/Nanaimo, BC – On July 24th and 25th, I will be attending and speaking at the Real Estate Webmasters Summit, held in beautiful Nanaimo, British Columbia. The REW Summit, held twice a year, provides two full days of learning and hands-on experience: how to generate the most leads from your website and the opportunity to meet face to face and discuss website secrets with seasoned veterans from the REW community. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to attend the REW Summit 2014 or would like more information.
Congratulations Mike. Real Estate webmasters have always been an excellent vendor to work with.
Thanks Freddy, and I can tell you REW is very much looking forward to working with your brokers and agents. Anything that gets me to NYC is a good thing! I’m glad you came back up north.
Thanks Matt, I appreciate it and look forward to crossing paths with you in my new capacity. I would love to speak at your next event so keep me posted!
Glad to have you on board Mike. Hopefully you can work with the brokerage community – via REW – in finding ways for us to maintain control of our listing data from third-party non-Realtor related firms. The trend of brokers sending their listings to third-party non-Realtor organizations needs to stop while at the same time the broker website platforms available in the market from firms like REW needs to continue to improve and innovate.
Brian, thanks for that, I appreciate it and I echo your concern and desire for better control of our broker data. I am on this side now because i believe this is where all the innovation is taking place and I am really enjoying bringing some of my experience back to the technology side. I also believe REW is going to be a leader in that space so hope I can help in that regard. | 2019-04-26T16:20:57 | https://www.wavgroup.com/2014/07/08/wav-group-partner-mike-audet-joins-real-estate-webmasters-2/ |
(Radio.com) Rick Ross has explained why he has never signed any female artists to Maybach Music Group, where he currently serves as CEO -- and it's not because he thinks woman rappers aren't any good.
His reasons are even stranger. He's afraid he'd end up getting sexually involved with the ladies. "I always thought, like, I would end up [explicative] a female rapper and [explicative] the business up," he said in a recent radio interview. "I'm so focused on my business. I just, I gotta be honest with you. You know, she looking good. I'm spending so much money on her photo shoots. I gotta [explicative] a couple times."
Though his motivation may be well-intended, critics are accusing him of sexism. And it's not the first time. In 2013, Ross was criticized for his rapping in Rocko's song, "U.O.E.N.O.," which contained a verse about drugging a girl and bringing to his house: "Put Molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it/ I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it."

Instructions to Review Committees which advise on actions concerning appointees in the Professor and corresponding series.
The following instructions apply to review committees for actions concerning appointees in the Professor series and the Professor-in-Residence series; and, with appropriate modifications, for appointees in the Adjunct Professor series.
The membership, deliberations, recommendations and report of the review committee are strictly confidential. The Chairperson of each such committee should remind members of the committee of the confidential nature of the assignment. This should be kept in mind in arranging for all written or oral communications; and when recommendations with supporting documents have been forwarded, all copies or preliminary drafts should be destroyed. Under the provisions of Section 160 and 220 of the Academic Personnel Manual, after the administrative decision, the candidate is entitled to receive from the Chancellor a copy of the ad hoc review committee’s report (without disclosure of the identities of members of the review committee), as well as copies of the reports submitted by the Council on Academic Personnel and the pertinent administrative officers.
Recommendations concerning appointment, promotion, and appraisal normally originate with the Department Chair. The letter of recommendation should provide a comprehensive assessment of the candidate’s qualifications together with detailed evidence to support this evaluation. The letter should also present a report of the Department Chair’s consultation with the members of the department, including any dissenting opinions. In addition to the letter of recommendation, the Department Chair is expected to assemble and submit to the Chancellor an up-to-date biography and bibliography, together with copies of research publications or other scholarly or creative work.
The Department Chair should include in the documentation opinions from colleagues in other institutions where the nominee has served and from other qualified persons having firsthand knowledge of the nominee’s attainments. Extramural opinions are imperative in cases of proposed appointments to tenure status of persons from outside the University.
Promotions are based on merit; they are not automatic. Achievement, as it is demonstrated, should be rewarded by promotion. Promotions to tenure positions should be based on consideration of comparable work in the candidate’s own field or in closely related fields. The department and the review committee should consider how the candidate stands in relation to other people in the field outside the University who might be considered alternative candidates for the position. The Department Chair shall supplement the opinions of colleagues within the department by letters from distinguished extramural informants.
In evaluating the candidate’s qualifications within these areas, the review committee shall exercise reasonable flexibility, balancing when the case requires, heavier commitments and responsibilities in one area against lighter commitments and responsibilities in another. The review committee must judge whether the candidate is engaging in a program of work that is both sound and productive. As the University enters new fields of endeavor and refocuses its ongoing activities, cases will arise in which the proper work of faculty members departs markedly from established academic patterns. In such cases, the review committees must take exceptional care to apply the criteria with sufficient flexibility. However, flexibility does not entail a relaxation of high standards. Superior intellectual attainment, as evidenced both in teaching and in research or other creative achievement, is an indispensable qualification for appointment or promotion to tenure positions. Insistence upon this standard for holders of the professorship is necessary for maintenance of the quality of the University as an institution dedicated to the discovery and transmission of knowledge. Consideration should be given to changes in emphasis and interest that may occur in an academic career. The candidate may submit for the review file a presentation of his or her activity in all four areas.
The criteria set forth below are intended to serve as guides for minimum standards in judging the candidate, not to set boundaries to exclude other elements of performance that may be considered.
Clearly demonstrated evidence of high quality teaching is an essential criterion for appointment, advancement, or promotion. Under no circumstances will a tenure commitment be made unless there is clear documentation of ability and diligence in the teaching role. In judging the effectiveness of a candidate’s teaching, the committee should consider such points as the following: the candidate’s command of the subject; continuous growth in the subject field; ability to organize material and to present it with force and logic; capacity to awaken in students an awareness of the relationship of the subject to other fields of knowledge; fostering of student independence and capability to reason; spirit and enthusiasm which vitalize the candidate’s learning and teaching; ability to arouse curiosity in beginning students, to encourage high standards and to stimulate advanced students to creative work; personal attributes as they affect teaching and students; extent and skill of the candidate’s participation in the general guidance, mentoring, and advising of students; effectiveness in creating an academic environment that is open and encouraging to all students, including development of particularly effective strategies for the educational advancement of students in various underrepresented groups. The committee should pay due attention to the variety of demands placed on instructors by the types of teaching called for in various disciplines and at various levels, and should judge the total performance of the candidate with proper reference to assigned teaching responsibilities. The committee should clearly indicate the sources of evidence on which its appraisal of teaching competence has been based. In those exceptional cases when no such evidence is available, the candidate’s potentialities as a teacher may be indicated in closely analogous activities. In preparing its recommendation, the review committee should keep in mind that a redacted copy of its report may be an important means of informing the candidate of the evaluation of his or her teaching and of the basis for that evaluation.
development of new and effective techniques of instruction, including techniques that meet the needs of students from groups that are underrepresented in the field of instruction.
evaluation by other faculty members of teaching effectiveness. When any of the information specified above is not provided, the Department Chair will include an explanation for that omission in the candidate’s dossier. If such information is not included with the letter of recommendation, and its absence is not adequately accounted for, it is the Review Committee Chairperson’s responsibility to request it through the Chancellor.
Evidence of a productive and creative mind should be sought in the candidate’s published research or recognized artistic production in original architectural or engineering designs, or the like.
Publications in research and other creative accomplishment should be evaluated, not merely enumerated. There should be evidence that the candidate is continuously and effectively engaged in creative activity of high quality and significance. Work in progress should be assessed whenever possible. When published work in joint authorship (or other product of joint effort) is presented as evidence, it is the responsibility of the Department Chair to establish as clearly as possible the role of the candidate in the joint effort. It should be recognized that special cases of collaboration occur in the performing arts and that the contribution of a particular collaborator may not be readily discernible by those viewing the finished work. When the candidate is such a collaborator, it is the responsibility of the Department Chair to make a separate evaluation of the candidate’s contribution and to provide outside opinions based on observation of the work while in progress. Account should be taken of the type and quality of creative activity normally expected in the candidate’s field. Appraisals of publications or other works in the scholarly and critical literature provide important testimony. Due consideration should be given to variations among fields and specialties and to new genres and fields of inquiry including work that advances the scholarly understanding of equitable access and diversity.
Textbooks, reports, circulars, and similar publications normally are considered evidence of teaching ability or public service. However, contributions by faculty members to the professional literature or to the advancement of professional practice or professional education including contributions to the advancement of equitable access and diversity in education, should be judged as creative work when they present new ideas or original scholarly research.
In certain fields such as, but not limited to, Art, Architecture, Dance, Music, Literature, and Drama, distinguished creation should receive consideration equivalent to that accorded to distinction attained in research. In evaluating artistic creativity, an attempt should be made to define the candidate’s merit in the light of such criteria as originality, scope, richness, and depth of creative expression. It should be recognized that in music, drama, and dance, distinguished performance, including conducting and directing, is evidence of a candidate’s creativity. Such evidence may be presented wherever appropriate, as in various professional or emerging academic fields.
In certain positions in the professional schools and colleges, such as Architecture, Business Administration, Dentistry, Engineering, Law, Medicine, etc., a demonstrated distinction in the special competencies appropriate to the field and its characteristic activities should be recognized as a criterion for appointment or promotion. The candidate’s professional activities should be scrutinized for evidence of achievement and leadership in the field and of demonstrated progressiveness in the development or utilization of new approaches and techniques for the solution of professional problems, including those that specifically address the professional advancement of individuals in underrepresented groups in the candidate’s field. It is the responsibility of the Department Chair to provide evidence that the position in question is of the type described above and that the candidate is qualified to fill it.
The faculty plays an important role in the administration of the University and in the formulation of its policies. Recognition should therefore be given to scholars who prove themselves to be able administrators and who participate effectively and imaginatively in faculty government and the formulation of departmental, college and University policies. Services by members of the faculty to the community, state, and nation, both in their special capacities as scholars and in areas beyond those special capacities when the work done is at a sufficiently high level and of sufficiently high quality, should likewise be recognized as evidence for promotion. Faculty service activities related to the improvement of elementary and secondary education represent one example of this kind of service. Similarly, contributions to student welfare through service on student-faculty committees and as advisers to student organizations should be recognized as evidence, as should contributions furthering diversity and equal opportunity within the University through participation in such activities as recruitment, retention, and mentoring of scholars and students.
Care should be taken in the preparation of the Ad Hoc committee report to preserve and protect the identity of those individuals who have submitted confidential evaluations. Reference to statements made by these individuals may only be included in a coded format, e.g., "letter writer #4 states...", or "the author of the August 1, 1994 letter acknowledges...."
Appended for reference on the following page is the AAUP Statement on Professional Ethics referred to in the first section of these instructions.
The professor, guided by a deep conviction of the worth and dignity of the advancement of knowledge, recognizes certain special responsibilities. The primary responsibility to the subject is to seek and to state the truth as the professor sees it. To this end the professor devotes energy to developing and improving scholarly competence; accepts the obligation to exercise critical self-discipline and judgment in using, extending, and transmitting knowledge; and practices intellectual honesty. Although the professor may follow subsidiary interests, these interests must never seriously hamper or compromise freedom of inquiry.
As a teacher, the professor encourages the free pursuit of learning in students; holds before them the best scholarly standards of the discipline; demonstrates respect for the student as an individual, and adheres to the proper role as intellectual guide and counselor; makes every reasonable effort to foster honest academic conduct and to assure that the evaluation of students reflects their true merit; respects the confidential nature of the relationship between professor and student; avoids any exploitation of students for private advantage and acknowledges significant assistance from them; and protects their academic freedom.
As a colleague, the professor has obligations that derive from common membership in the community of scholars; respects and defends the free inquiry of associates; in the exchange of criticism and ideas shows due respect for the opinions of others; acknowledges academic debts and strives to be objective in professional judgment of colleagues; and accepts a share of faculty responsibilities for the governance of the institution.
As a member of the institution, the professor seeks above all to be an effective teacher and scholar. Although observing the stated regulations of the institution, provided they do not contravene academic freedom, the professor maintains the right to criticize and seek revision; determines the amount and character of the work done outside the institution with due regard to the paramount responsibilities within it; and when considering the interruption or termination of service, recognizes the effect of this decision upon the program of the institution and gives due notice of these intentions.
As a member of the community, the professor has the rights and obligations of any citizen; measures the urgency of these obligations in the light of the responsibilities to the subject, to students, to the profession, and to the institution; and when speaking or acting as a private person, avoids creating the impression that such action is on behalf of the college or university. As a citizen engaged in a profession that depends upon freedom for its health and integrity, the professor has a particular obligation to promote conditions of free inquiry and to further public understanding of academic freedom.

Popular aftermarket seat maker Corbin has introduced a new feature to its website to give customers a better idea of what, exactly, they are buying.
Although Corbin offers seats for all kinds of bikes they are particularly popular among riders of Harley-Davidsons and other cruisers. The custom seats receive acclaim for the level of comfort offered over standard OEM seats. They are equally popular because of the level of customization possible.
However, anyone who's ever considered buying one of the popular seats online probably knows the experience of being baffled by the number of choices available. According to Corbin, even the most basic seat model has more than 43,000 customizing combinations. Step up into something like the company's Dual Touring Saddle and the combination possibilities apparently go into the millions.
Trying to figure all this out based solely on descriptions was frustrating to many customers. After all, what's the difference between Red, Candy Red, Ninja Red and Tomato Red? As a result, many customers simply gave up trying to create their seat online.
Corbin says it listened to the criticisms of these customers and has invested a number of years into a feature on its website that will allow customers to see the seat of their choice and customize it exactly to their liking.
"This has been at the top of our To-Do List for nearly a decade now," said Greg Hurley, Director of Marketing at Corbin. "It has also been a highly requested feature from our customers."
Corbin drafted in designers from New Zealand to help get the work done. Presently the feature is still in beta mode, with only the six most popular seat models currently available. Customers can craft and customize these seats in thousands of ways. More seat models are expected to be added soon.

Weak Jump Shift or Splinter?
Thanks all. Very helpful and quite informative. I'll definitely discuss it with my regular partners. I suspect we will take the fit-showing jump recommendation.
Partner expects more than that from an opening. I'll likely be able to bid later showing a strong sub-opener.
Thanks. I'm good with an announcement for 2C. We'll see what the powers that be decide.
Are you suggesting that 2C response be announced as does / doesn't?
How about making it part of the announcement? Range x to y, 2C does/doesn't promise a 4-card major. Yes, it "wakes up" partner, but is anybody but a novice really that asleep? We can give novices a break here.
Can you preemp and then bid again?
I would probably try a tactic I recently learned. Pass and wait for the opponents to settle in at 4M then bid 5♦ out of the blue.
LOL. I didn't think of it that way. I guess we will all run that risk for several years.
ACBL regs status of Transfer Walsh?
Can I play 1NT (15-17) -- 2♦ (announcement) (usually shows Hearts) -- 2♥ (forced, no other response permitted)-- 2♠ ((alert , cancels previous bidding and forces 3♣ (weak to play)) on the GCC? If so, what announcement? | 2019-04-20T16:51:44 | https://bridgewinners.com/profile/malcolm-todd-2-syva13j0lf/ |
