5.46 - The One with Big Brother
We received a note from our landlord last night regarding new security measures that will be installed in our building today. They are installing a "state of the art" closed circuit camera in the lobby and give everyone in the building access to see on their own TV who is buzzing in. Keep in mind, most of the people in our building are older and don't have much to do during the day. They already stand at the window to see what's going on in the parking lot. I can see some of these people sitting in front of their TV watching the feed all day. The question is...will it be in High Def?

5.45 - The One with the Myths about Canadians
- We live in igloos
- Contrary to popular belief, our homes are not made out of hand-cut ice blocks and decorated with rough-hewn seal skins. The fact of the matter is that Canada is home to some of the world's most beloved architectural marvels, including Saint Joseph's Oratory of Mount Royal, Notre-Dame Basilica, Château Frontenac, and the fabulously phallic CN Tower, none of which are made out of oversize ice cubes. Over the past century, Canada has also produced some of the most accomplished architects in the world, including Frank Gehry, whose Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, Experience Music Project and Walt Disney Concert Hall are considered to be among the most innovative buildings on the planet.
- Over the years, Canada has produced a staggering number of quality musicians, and yet one of the acts we're best known for is Nickelback, the world's most maddeningly generic rock band. Although these self-important Hanna natives have sold millions of albums, most Canucks consider it a point of pride that the vast majority of their sales have occurred south of the border in the land of the free and home of the tone deaf. Every nation gets the artists they deserve and America is more than welcome to keep Chad Kroeger and his tragically bland bandmates for as long as they like.
- Canadian cuisine isn't vastly different from American cuisine, although in our defence, there is a lot less of it. Many Canadian chain restaurants actually offer smaller portions than their American partners, hence ensuring their clientele can leave on their own power rather than needing the Jaws of Life and three pounds of butter just to get through the front entrance.
- Americans can be forgiven for thinking that Toronto is our capital city given the fact that it's also our most populous urban center and the self-proclaimed "center of the universe." However, the fact remains that our national capital is in Ottawa, a quiet little town that's every bit as respectable and law-abiding as the country it so proudly represents.
- Canada's two official languages are English and French, although they're hardly the only dialects you'll hear within our borders. According to Statistics Canada, one out of every six Canucks has a mother tongue other than English or French. That's why the CBC now offers Hockey Night in Canada in Punjabi and why many of our street signs appear in as many as three languages.
- From Renfrew of the Royal Mounted to Due South, Hollywood has churned out dozens of productions over the years depicting our police officers as smiling balladeers dressed in spotless scarlet tunics and ridiculously large wide-brimmed hats. Although our RCMP constables do indeed possess these decorative uniforms, they tend to save them for special occasions -- like Canada Day, Victoria Day and Dudley Do-Right movie premieres. Today's RCMP is a thoroughly modern police force with approximately 28,000 employees, including police officers, civilian members and public service workers.
- There's a big difference between being polite and being a pacifist, and it's a distinction that has confused many Americans over the years. It's about time that our neighbours to the south learned that Canada has one of the world's most respected and well-trained militaries, comprised of 62,000 Regular Force members and 25,000 Reserve Force members. Nearly one-third of our deployable forces are currently engaged in overseas missions in locations such as Afghanistan, Cyprus, Darfur, Jerusalem, Haiti, and Sudan, and if it weren't for Canada's critical role in both World Wars, folks in Philadelphia and Detroit might now be speaking German.
- Although Canadians pride themselves on their ability to slip the puck through the five-hole, we also participate in a wide variety of other sports as well. According to a new report funded by Sport Canada, the most popular participatory sport in Canada is now golf, with hockey coming in a distant second. Don't tell Don Cherry, but hockey registration could continue to slide in the years ahead as more and more of Canada's youth gravitate toward soccer and baseball.
- Although annexation may have been a viable option back in the 18th century, most Canadians are now pleased to live in a country where health care is free, social welfare is provided to all citizens and gun shops don't offer "Back to School" specials. Besides, given its exorbitant debt, who would want to be part of the United States of Foreclosure these days? Although we may look, dress and even occasionally sound like Americans, Canada has a distinct culture all its own. We have our own parliamentary system of government, our own national symbols and, perhaps most importantly, you can order poutine at all of our McDonald's. Take that, North Dakota!
- Once and for all, we do not know your cousin Gord in Muskoka, your uncle Bob in Moose Jaw or your sister's ex-boyfriend Pete in Thunder Bay. Canada is a country of 33,551,000 citizens, so you'll have to excuse us if we have difficultly keeping tabs on everyone. Although, in all fairness, we do know your old roommate Ken and the guy is a serious tool.

5.41 - The One with the mistake
I can't stress enough to my clients that they need to proof read what they send me. We recently finished this 110 page report and as it was out to get bound...I get an email from the client in a panic saying that the phone number on the inside cover was wrong. Her boss was saying that it was our fault and blah blah blah. I had to explain to her that we don't proof read the copy that they provide us. It's not our job to do that. We just make it look good. Plus when you have signed approval to go ahead and print the project...you really can't blame us. I worked on this report for 2 months and I can't tell you what it's all about. But being the nice guys that we are...we called the bindery and halted the job, reprinted the covers and it'll be done early next week.
here's another example of someone who dropped the ball:
an HDMI cable for $600? I think not. Someone added an extra 9...oops...

10 Heaviest Helicopters in History
Nothing catches the eye quite like a massive helicopter slicing through the air, heading swiftly on an important mission. But what if said helicopter were carrying a tank or an airplane? From the illustrious and long-serving Boeing CH-47 Chinook to the hulking, super-powerful Mil Mi-26, many of the following 10 helicopters have played major roles in combat missions as well as civilian assignments around the world. This article includes sky cranes, payload record-breakers and a fascinating tiltrotor vehicle that blurs the lines between helicopter and airplane. Even one of eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes' machines made the cut.

Luther College is a college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Canada, federated with the University of Regina. The aim of the College is to provide a quality liberal education in a Christian context. Luther College is academically integrated with the University of Regina and fully shares its excellent campus and facilities. The University has encouraged the growth of its federated colleges to aid in "presenting, reflecting upon and scrutinizing as broad a spectrum as possible of values and viewpoints", and to afford some students the opportunity "to become associated, within the broader contest of the University with a smaller college environment". (University of Regina General Calendar, 1977-78)

This weekend my Mum was in town, and as we'd dragged her along to her first Parkrun back in December, I thought it was time for her to do another!
I normally do the Dulwich Parkrun, three laps of the entirely flat Dulwich Park. It's a 10 minute cycle from my house, a nice warm up but one that involves the South Circular. Mum can ride a bike but hasn't in a while and I didn't think she'd fancy riding one of mine around one of south London's busiest roads.
Brockwell Park is just a bus journey from my house, so trying to pretend it doesn't have a whopping great hill in it, we went there. We were super organised and each had a flask of coffee, which we left propped against a tree as we listened to the safety briefing.
There were more than 300 runners, which felt very busy. We queued up on the path outside the lido, and soon we were off. Well, fairly soon – it took a while to get going. The path was very narrow for the number of people on it and I had started too far back and had a lot of slower runners to overtake, especially when it came to the first hill.
Feeling like a boss, I powered up the hill, glancing down at my garmin watch to check my pace – and noticed that the bloody thing had stopped! I'm slightly ashamed to admit it knocked my motivation (what's the point of setting a new PB if you're not recording it?) and I took it easier for the remaining 3.8km.
I managed a sprint finish – a bit lame as I'd really been jogging up until then – and joined the enormous queue to have my barcode scanned, chatting to another girl who was new to Brockwell Parkrun.
I kept checking the finish line to see when Mum was on her way in. I wasn't sure when we'd set off or what time she was expecting to do it in but thought that the moment I saw her I'd jog over to her and run the final bit with her.
Suddenly I noticed the volunteers packing away the finishing chute. "Stop!" I shouted, trying to sprint across a patch of extremely boggy grass. "There's still another runner to go!" Luckily they hadn't stopped the timer, but they thought that the last lady in was the final runner, forgetting about Mum.
I left the coffee cups at the finish line and headed back along the course to track Mum down. Running in my down jacket is not much fun! I found her and we power walked to the end together. 54 minutes – more than a minute faster than her first Parkrun!
We went for coffee at the Blackbird Bakery (where we met a 12 week old pug, refusing to walk) and saw a painting of the park in the art shop window. I pointed out the route we'd taken: one big lap around the park and then turning left at the sports field on the second lap.
"Sports field?!" exclaimed Mum. "I didn't turn left at the sports field!"
She'd done TWO big laps of the park. So not only had she beaten her previous time, she'd beaten it on an extra long (and hilly) course! Well done Mum!

I just had breakfast. Well, breakfast by hour, "3rd meal" by lifestyle. I got it from the lil' place on the corner because I just didn't feel like stuffing something in the toaster, or nuking something today. But all in all I'm kinda dissapointed.
This lil' restaurant/diner thing is in probably it's 10th incarnation since I've lived where I live. That's a lot of turnover for a good location restaurant. But I think I figured out why.
The food was ok. Except for an item called "the Starvin' Marvin'" I would've expected a bit more. My normal sized takeout platter still had whitespace. There wasn't any super filler, just eggs, bacon, ham, sausage and homefries. none of which had any special attributes to make me go "mmm! damn these are good!" It was just food. What happened to the days when you could go into a ma 'n pop diner and be guaranteed the food would be yummy? or at least, not plain? Oh well…
I'll let you know about the chinese/vietnamese food place a block away when it reopens for the 14th time.

Barcelona is famous for many reasons, and the region surrounding it as well. But some of these regions have managed to escape the spotlight. At The Spanish Touch we believe that the best way to travel is to be informed about the possibilities, and we view it as a part of our job to help interested visitors to discover the region, beyond just the pictures and "major" tourist attractions. And today's search brings us closer to Barcelona than people generally consider. When we talk about the Coastal regions people think of the Costa Brava, or the Costa Daurada along the south. but the Maresme coast, that stretches between the city of Barcelona and the Costa Brava, offers some spectacular ideas for the inquisitive explorer.
Take, for example, the capital city of Mataro: originally a Roman city, the town was also the birthplace and home Modernisme's most important figures, Josep Puig i Cadafalch. The town center features pedestrian walkways which wind through the stores and buildings, leading to the 17th century church, a modernista market and even Roman ruins.
Castle lovers have several options as well, as both the Castle of Vilassar and the Tower of Santa Susanna can be visited, and provide visitors an opportunity to discover the history and legends of the coastal towns. The ruins of Burriac Castle are one of the most popular sites for hikers in the area.
Finally, i would be remiss if I did not mention food and wine. From having one of the top restaurants in the world (Carme Ruscalleda's Sant Pau) to up-and-coming restaurants like Tresmacarrons to some of the best tapas along the coast, the culinary offering is sure to satisfy even the most demanding palate.
And the Alella wine region, the smallest in Spain, has been winning awards in recent years for their unique wines and cavas, and enjoying a picnic in the vineyards just a half hour outside of Barcelona is a truly wonderful way to spend a spring or summer afternoon.
For more information regarding private tours in the Barcelona region contact The Spanish Touch at 888-480-0013.

How to Make Edible Soap
Edible soap may not be intended to satisfy your hunger, but it serves useful for children and animals as a safe and nontoxic hygiene product. Natural and organic soaps contain products that are so safe that they are edible. Making your own safe and edible soap proves an easy task in little time. Making use of natural and hypoallergenic ingredients makes this recipe safe, effective and so attractive that you'd want to eat it.
Add the powdered ingredients to one glass bowl. This includes the goat milk powder, soapweed extract and honey powder.
Stir in the distilled water. Microwave the bowl on high for four minutes to get it hot.
Add the coconut and vitamin E oils to the other glass bowl. Vitamin E oil preserves and emulsifies this formula. Microwave the bowl on high for two minutes.
Mix the hot water mixture with the hand mixer on a medium setting.
Pour the hot oil into the bowl of mixing waters and extracts. Continue to beat the formula on a high setting for five minutes.
Pour the mixture into a 20 oz. bottle and leave it uncovered until it cools to room temperature. The end result is a creamy, rich and cleansing soap that is also edible.
- 1 cup goats milk powder
- 1/4 cup soapweed extract
- 1/4 cup honey powder
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 2 qt. glass bowls (2)
- 1/4 cup vitamin E oil
- 1/4 cup sodium bicarbonate
- 1 cup distilled water
- Hand mixer
- 20 oz. bottle

(Posted Wed. Jun 6th, 2018)
Following White House postponement of potential damaging changes to the Renewable Fuel Standard, NCGA President and North Dakota farmer Kevin Skunes thanked those who stood up for America's corn farmers.
"The nation's corn growers thank Senator Chuck Grassley, Senator Joni Ernst and USDA Secretary Sonny Perdue for their advocacy and steadfast support for farmers, rural communities and renewable fuels. We greatly appreciate their efforts," Skunes said. "With the expectation that the Administration was preparing to take drastic actions to unravel the RFS, farmers are very pleased those actions have been set aside and strongly encourage the Administration to keep the President's commitment to America's farmers and leave the RFS intact."

Back-to-School Outfit #2
Today is the second of three outfits to lead you to school stardom. For this look, I paired a light white sweater with black leggings. I added a bunch of rings from a set, and threw on turquoise converse for a pop of color. This look is great for those who tend to like simplify and comfy items. I always like to add a pop of color when wearing outfits like this, although it is not necessary.
The top from H & M is plain with a hint of detail at the bottom. The light material makes it perfect for fall. Leggings are a staple item for any closet, and are usually available in any store. Here is where everything is from:
Top: H & M
Bottom: Tezenis
Shoes: Converse
Rings: Claires
Here is a close-up of the detail in the shirt/sweater. Personally, I think it is incredibly detailed, but doesn't give too much pzazz. The rings, which you can now see better, are a set of 10 different sizes. There are midi rings includes which I adore.
That is the conclusion of my second back-to-school look. If you decide to recreate this look, please tag me on Instagram or Twitter with your pictures. I cannot wait to see them!
Question of the Day:
Favorite thing about fall?

Henry's presence in the house will set the women apart and their lives will be never be the same… The Fox brilliantly fuses the sensuality of Lawrence's tale with inspired music from Janacek's opera "The Cunning Little Vixen" to create a passionate theatrical experience.

Shared Formulas
You can define calculations that apply to more than one level, called shared formulas. To add and manage shared formulas, navigate to the Home > Formulas page. The shared formula page allows you to set shared formulas for an account across several levels. A shared formula it is applied across the entire time span of the version you select. A shared formula looks the same as other formulas - but the same formula exists in every time period. For example, you might define cash flow calculations as shared formulas that apply to all levels on both the planned and actuals versions. Shared formulas can be overridden by data entry on a sheet (unless the sheet is read-only).
Before You Begin
Permission Required: Model Management and Model.
Accounts Available For Shared Formulas
You can create shared formulas for GL and custom accounts. Rollup accounts and system accounts, while visible in the shared formula account selector, cannot be selected for shared formulas. Data entry is not allowed on rollup or system accounts.
You cannot create shared formulas for Metric, Modeled, Cube and Assumption accounts. Formulas for Metric accounts are managed in account administration. Formulas for modeled and cube accounts are managed in sheet administration. Formulas for Assumption accounts are managed on sheets as a user edit.
Levels Available For Shared Formulas
There are no restrictions on the levels where you can add shared formulas. Even when an account is hidden for a level, you can still select the level and add a formula.
There is a limit to the number of shared formulas you can add in each version. The limit is 200,000 entered shared formulas at the Account/Level intersections and 10 million shared formulas across Account/Level/Time intersections.
The Formulas Page
Controls on the Formulas page include:
Use the drop-down Accounts menu to find GL and custom accounts. You can navigate the Accounts structure or Search to find and select accounts.
Use the Levels list to find and select levels. You can navigate the list or search for a level.
- Click to globally expand (or collapse) the level list.
- These columns provide additional information about the selected account on each level:
Edits : A value, formula, or data import was entered on a sheet.
Hidden : The account is hidden for this level.
Formula: Formulas assigned to the account, level.
Search: Shows filtered search results for the level.
Selected tab: Further isolate your focus to the selected levels. From here, you can manage formula inputs and updates to specifically-selected levels. Level and account selections persist so you do not have to select the levels and account again when switching versions.
Add a Shared Formula
To add a shared formula:
Navigate to Formulas.
Select a Version (upper right corner of the screen).
Select an account from the Accounts list.
After picking an account to update, select the level or levels where you want to add the formula.
You can select multiple levels at once, allowing bulk operations (For example, setting formulas, clearing edits, and deleting formulas). Keyboard short-cuts (shift click, ctrl-click, and right-click), can be used for more efficient navigation and multi-level range selections in shared formulas.
After selecting the account and level, use Detail > Set Formula to enter a formula.
Type or copy the formula into Set Formula, or use the Formula Assistant. Creating or changing a shared formula for a level will not erase any user edits on the level which override the shared formula.
For User edits, choose one of the following:
Preserve: Allow users to make changes to formulas on sheets.
Remove: Clears any edits to formulas when users save the sheet.
To cancel the edits to the formula and return it to its original state, click Cancel .
To set the formula (including your User edits choices), click Save .
Override a Shared Formula
There are a few options to override shared formulas as follows:
- User Edit on Sheet: If the account is available for user edit, users can override the shared formula on the sheet.
- Master Formula: Adding a master formula on an account overrides the shared formula. Refer to Master Formula under Account Details, Data Type for more information.
Delete a Shared Formula
To delete a shared formula, select the level or levels and click Delete .
To clear any user edits which appear on a level (force the cells in that level to display the shared formula):
Choose User edits > Remove in the Details panel, then click Save .
Click the Remove user edits (top left of the screen).
Manage Versions and Levels for Formulas
When a new sub-level is created, all the formulas from the parent level are copied into the new sub-level, except on locked versions. Similarly, Create New Version copies all formulas from the source version to the new version.

Whether you love or hate the BMW 1 series it certainly stands out from the crowd and not only is it desirable but it is affordable too.
strong>What Car said 'The only rear-drive hatch in the class scores with a strong combination of performance, economy and emissions. The BMW 1 Series handles well and rides comfortably, too'.
There's a wide range of economical engines available in the BMW range so you won't be stuck for choice there.
The styling of the BMW 1 series is unmistakable with its trademark large headlights and kidney grille. The wide stance of the vehicle together with the flared wheel arches give the 1 series an overall sportier and more dynamic feel than others in its class.
Inside, it's extremely spacious and very well-built. The stylish trimmed dashboard, chunky controls, leather and the metal that is used throughout the cabin makes it feel like a lot of car for your money.
CarBuyer have given the car a 4.3/5 rating and highlighted the pros as being a great vehicle to drive a frugal engine and a top class interior.
The BMW 1 series comes complete with air-conditioning, both electric front and rear windows, electric and heated mirrors, power steering, seat height adjustment, CD player with auxiliary connectivity, Bluetooth, split/fold seats, ABS, deadlocks, immobiliser and both central and remote locking.
The features do vary between the specifications but in some aspects the 1 series can be lacking in comparison to rivals such as the Volkswagen Golf and Seat Leon, whose more affordable models come with some more advanced kit options.
Now, driving the 1 series is where it really gets exciting. The M135i petrol model can reach 0-62mph in just 4.9 seconds. Very impressive and it does still give 37.7mpg (Figure taken from CarBuyer). When you're driving the BMW 1 series there's little noise from the engine and any bumps in the road are easily absorbed making your journey exceptionally comfortable. In the NCAP crash safety tests the 1 series was awarded the maximum five star rating.
The 116d Efficient Dynamics model is the most efficient and economical with a manufacturer mpg os 74.3, and it only emits a tax free 99g/km of CO2. If you're looking for an economical vehicle then we suggest you opt for a diesel engine.
For a 2l turbo 13 plate 1 series you will be paying just £269.98 per month including VAT on a personal leasebasis.
If you wanted a 2l M Sport 12 plate 1 series with low mileage it will cost a bit more a month at £328.63 including VAT.
On the whole the BMW 1 series is an extremely stylish vehicle and drives particularly well in comparison to many of its rivals.

Did you know that September is National Preparedness Month? After the damage of Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma, be smart, get prepared, and read up on what you can do for major emergencies like these.
Be sure to plan ahead.
Sign up for emergency alerts and warnings in your area, orient everyone on what to do in different situations, and have each member of the household be in charge of their own emergency kits. Make sure everybody knows where the first aid kits are stored. (If you don't have one yet, click here to find one that suits your needs.) It's also good to check on your insurance coverage and if possible, have emergency funds on hand in case disaster strikes.
Be sure to connect with people in your area.
Connect with your neighbours so you can help out each other. Come up with evacuation routes and plans for emergency shelters. Coordinate with your local police, firemen, and other rescue units in making sure your entire community knows what to do and how to help each other in a crisis.
Be sure to practice your plans.
Organise emergency drills for different disasters both with the members of your family and the rest of your area. It's easy to panic in the middle of a dangerous situation, but setting aside time to walk everyone through the emergency protocols and procedures goes a long way in making sure each person knows the proper steps to follow in an emergency.
Be ready to help others.
Of course, once disaster hits, it's important to give to the victims. However you can also help the less fortunate prepare for dangerous situations by donating first aid kits and emergency supplies, as well as showing your support through various organisations. Click here to find out how you can be smart, get prepared, and give back to those in need.

My new (free online) book is on the move! Go to the menu and download it for free.
Magical Thinking – the book – is a homage to cognitive biases. It is directly connected to the author's personal experiences, modified through his writing style in order to become as educative as possible for his students.
Cognitive biases are not just interesting and amusing stories; they reflect the very deviation of our culture, our educational systems and our way of seeing, thus forming, not only "our" world, but the world of the generations to come.

Although the both parties mentioned do not enjoy the best of relationship for some years now, no one knew it would degenerate in to a rofo rofo fight years after, until they finally engaged each other in a severe boxing match recently that finally earned AY a serious head but from 'Terry the Ginja' .
For the purpose of those who may not have understood the whole story, let us revert to the beginning of the matter.
In 2009, AY Dot come launched an attack on Terry G and warned him to stop performing his song, "Pass Me Your Love" in shows. The song which featured Terry and was also produced by him turned out to be a monster hit single later became the subject of a misunderstanding between the two parties over the years.
While Terry on his part claims he has the right of performing the song since it was a duet that featured him, AY Dot Come maintained it was never going to happen while he lives.
Meanwhile, AY on several occasions lamented of how Terry G went about collecting money on his behalf to perform the song without his consent.
Now from the story, you can see it was an age long animosity which finally turned out into a free for all fight, where blows were exchanged; several bottles broken, people injured, trying to separate the fight. Fast forward to what happened at Terry G's Iju home on his birthday.
An eyewitness said, 'AY came in the company of some friends as a sign of solidarity to celebrate with the 'Intellectual Mad Man' on his birthday and upon sighting him, Terry G Immediately threw caution to the wind and all the madness in him was let lose, as he punched AY severally and landed him an headbutt. AY upon being rescued reached out for the next available weapon but was immediately intercepted by friends and colleagues. At this point the party was already thrown into a halt, while Terry G insisted that Ay disappears from his house before something worse happens. AY was immediately seen to the gate of the compound with bruises all over his body.
Neither Terry G nor AY was available to give their reaction on the story, as their both numbers were switched off as at the time of filing in this report.

CIA Spying On You Through Your Refrigerator
I created a post on the blog several months ago regarding your washing machine spying on you. Well, here we go again. The refrigerator in your kitchen could be spying on you too. It sounds like madness…too crazy to be true. Who knows? I thought I'd share this video with you anyway. Check out the video below: "CIA Spying On You Through Your Refrigerator."

An analysis of the survey, which was carried out last year, found that the total number of white children in the US had declined by 4.3 million over the past decade.
During the same period, the number of Hispanic children increased by 4.8 million. Almost one in four American children is now Hispanic – twice the proportion registered in 1990.
Since the turn of the century, the number of white children has dropped below the number of other children in large American cities including Atlanta, Dallas, Texas, Orlando and Phoenix.
The census data suggested the US would contain fewer white children than children from other races overall by 2023. The same will be true of the entire population by 2042, it indicated.
"Slower growth among whites owes in part to their lower fertility rate – about 1.9 births per white woman, compared with three births per Hispanic woman," said the Brookings Institution report.
The growth was also partly attributed to immigration. Only 15 per cent of new immigrants between 2000 and 2009 were white, compared with 78 per cent who were Hispanic.

As the snow is piling up, here at All Done we are prepared to handle your service calls day or night in order to perform outstanding plumbing and heating services for our clients 24/7. As our clients need us to be open for your requests we have planned and implemented extra stock of plumbing and heating parts for boilers, furnaces and central HVAC units that may be needed quickly in the middle of the night. When a furnace, boiler or HVAC system breaks down because of cold weather most of the time its a small repair that is required a change of the part that caused the problem, like the boiler or furnace sensor, filter, driving belt etc.. those components we hold most of the time in our truck. Some of them we have available as generic parts for boilers and furnaces, so we can fit them to different kinds of models and systems so we will be able to serve you faster and better without a delay or waiting until the next day to get the materials while your heating system is out of order.
Boilers or Furnace Systems Almost Never Break Down
In our years of experience, heating systems, residential or commercial, are not likely to break down such that you need to replace or install a new boiler unless you ignore earlier signs that your furnace or HVAC system is sending you in terms of noises or diminished performance that alerts you to check and maintain the system before you get into an emergency in this kind of weather like today. A boiler that is not running smoothly, a furnace that furnace that kicks in and out with cycles on and off, a heating system with a fan running constantly, or the belt is making noise, or there is cold air that is coming out of the diffusers when the heat is running, a thermostat that tics and makes noise on and off, and on and on. If you have been in your house or business for a while most owners can feel the difference in operations of their heating units to suspect that there is a problem, we highly suggest that you do not ignore these signs as minor repairs are less expensive and we can do them not in a rush, not in an emergency, not when the supply store is not open, not when you need to lose days or work or your family is stressed because the heat doesn't work and its cold in the house and you need to wait for the technician to come right away to fix it. We can fix all the heating problems for you fairly easily and affordably, at the lowest cost when we discover the problem before the whole system breaks down.
Affordable Repair for a Boiler or HVAC System Starts With Maintenance
The worst thing and the most expensive thing is to call for a heating company at night for an emergency while there is a storm with snow and limited access to units, especially if you have a top roof unit in commercial property which requires us to climb on the roof in bad weather and it depends on the type of roof unit and roof that you have in certain times it will be impossible for us to repair a commercial top roof heating unit because of the dangers of having our technicians working on a smooth roof that may be iced over. In that particular situation there is very little that we can do and sometimes we advise the homeowner or the business owner to go and use internal heaters as a replacement for the central HVAC unit of the house in order to stay warm until we can access the unit and repair it.
Even if we offer 24/7 emergency heating service, we can come to your home or building even with the parts but such bad weather can sometimes prevent us from serving your heating system so the best way to go is always maintain your heating system before it breaks down and it will cost you much less.
How We Calculate a Price For Boiler/Furnace/Heating Repair Services
Clients ask us over the phone many times what is the cost to repair their heating system. We desire to be fair and honest and provide a good answer, on the other hand we, including you, do not know the cause of the loss of heat or what parts need to be changed, so anyone that will give you a price over the phone, especially those times of heating repair companies that offer the lowest price just to step into the client's house to up-sell are wrong and we do not use these types of ugly strategies. We, like all serious HVAC companies, don't want to guess what caused the loss of heat in your furnace, we want to be able to tell you exactly what needs to be fixed, the price (which is calculated based on the parts needed and the time needed to replace them) and the warranty. That's how a good reliable heating company will do. As we care about our clients for long term services. So we try and guide you as much as we can over the phone and help you as much as we can but still provide good service.
Feel free to call us 24/7 for help with any of your heating problems and we will do our best to help. Stay warm and have a wonderful night!

A number of conservatives are looking upon the American landscape in the age of Caitlyn Jenner and legalized same-sex marriage and saying, "there are no rules anymore."
They especially see this in the logic of Anthony Kennedy's majority decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, in which the justice wrote in 1992:
Our law affords constitutional protection to personal decisions relating to marriage, procreation, contraception, family relationships, child rearing, and education. Our cases recognize "the right of the individual, married or single, to be free from unwarranted governmental intrusion into matters so fundamentally affecting a person as the decision whether to bear or beget a child." Our precedents "have respected the private realm of family life which the state cannot enter." These matters, involving the most intimate and personal choices a person may make in a lifetime, choices central to personal dignity and autonomy, are central to the liberty protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. At the heart of liberty is the right to define one's own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life. Beliefs about these matters could not define the attributes of personhood were they formed under compulsion by the State.
"The right to define one's own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life." These words are religious — they are teleological, they pertain to the ends and purposes of human existence — and they are, under this rubric, entirely up to the individual and the individual alone.
And that means chaos, conservatives say. Because there aren't any "right" answers anymore. Aren't any "shared" answers anymore, "objective" answers against which any individual conclusion can be measured. It's anything goes.
Except, they're wrong. Note this little exchange from the 1999 film Office Space between Joanna (played by Jennifer Anniston) and her boss Stan (played by Mike Judge) at restaurant Chotchkie's about the amount of "flair" Joanna is — or in this case, isn't — wearing:
STAN (MIKE JUDGE) : Joanna! . . . We need to talk about your flair.
JOANNA : Really? I have fifteen pieces on (demonstrating).
STAN : Fifteen is the minimum, mmkay. It's up to you whether you want to just do the bare minimum. Brian for example has thirty-seven pieces of flair—and a terrific smile.
JOANNA : Okay, so you want me to wear more?
STAN : (Sighing.) Look, Joanna, people can get a cheeseburger anywhere, they come to Chotchkie's for the atmosphere and the attitude. That's what the flair's about. It's about fun.
JOANNA : So . . . more, then.
STAN : Look, we want you to express yourself. Mmkay? Now, if you feel the bare minimum is enough, well, okay, but some people choose to wear more, and we encourage that. You do want to express yourself, don't you?
This may seem like a tawdry example, but this exchange is, I think, deeply indicative of how the therapeutic world works. While Stan clearly wants Joanna to wear more "flair," he simply cannot simply tell her to do that. He cannot and will not be an external voice of authority. Instead, he wants her to want to wear more flair.
"We want you to express yourself." You would think this would be fairly open ended statement with no right answer, but it's not. It clearly has a correct answer. But it's one that must be discerned internally. Brian is held up as a standard not because he wears 37 pieces of "flair," but because he clearly wants to wear those 37 pieces. That's self-expression in this world, and while Stan won't tell Joanna "be like Brian," (that would go against the whole notion of individual expression) he's telling her to "be like Brian." Because Brian expresses himself correctly.
Joanna doesn't really care about all this, and thought wearing the minimum — and doing her job — would suffice. But it doesn't. Stan needs her not just to do the right things, but to feel them, to want them. Of her own accord. To put those things inside her and make them part of her. She cannot simply do the right thing; she has to be the right thing.
In the therapeutic world, there are no clearly stated right answers because it will be assumed the right answer already exists inside everyone, and it's just waiting to be found or cultivated. This has always been part of the paradox of American freedom — Americans were "free," but it was always a tightly constrained freedom limited to certain kinds of choices. It was freedom from external authority (the main goal of the Enlightenment) — which is clearly tyranny — but it replaced that external authority with a semi-coherent internal authority. In order to function, this internal freedom demands a great deal of conformity — moreso even than any externally imposed order. In fact, in order for freedom to work, everyone has to make roughly the same choices. Wrong choices cannot be tolerated. They don't just threaten the social order; they also signal that there's a problem with the chooser, who is clearly disordered.
The right choices available would never really be explicitly outlined, and you wouldn't know what they were until you actually failed to choose one of them. You might not be compelled to make those right choices, but right choices would still be expected, and failure to make right choices would still be sanctioned or punished. This was just as true of the socially, religiously, and politically conservative Southern California suburb I grew up in as it is of liberal and progressive America.
This kind of individual-defining, autonomous freedom is deeply conservative simply because it is American. Kennedy's definition of freedom stands in the long tradition of allegedly expansive but simultaneously deeply constraining and conformist notions of American freedom. Very little has really changed, including the reality that there are wrong choices and wrong answers and that those who make them will be punished. Conservatives are suddenly griping about this now only because it's finally working against them.

What is this object?
This is a tripod vessel used to hold wine for ritual ceremonies of the Shang (approx. 1600-1050 BCE) dynasty rulers. Yayi is a reading of the graph that appears inside the vessel, possibly a clan mark. Jia (jee-ah) refers to the vessel type. Jia are cup-shaped vessels with three blade-like legs, a handle and several small posts above the rim Jia appear from the early Shang but disappear after the middle Western Zhou (1050-771 BCE) dynasty.
How was it used?
The large size of this jia is quite impressive. Bright and shiny when it was first cast, it must have been a proud possession. Jia were usually pouring or drinking vessels, but the immense size and weight of this vessel suggests that it was used more for display purposes, or perhaps carried in some way. The tripod shape is based on ceramic prototypes that allows heating of the vessel's contents. The two posts at the top of the vessel are a bit of a mystery. Possibly they were used to help carry the vessel, or simply decorative, similar to the stumped horn shapes on animal heads of animals. Another theory is that they held netting to keep the contents of the vessel unadulterated.
What is the significance of the designs on this vessel?
The surface of the jia is completely covered with designs. This style helps to identify the vessel as Anyang period (late Shang). The style is typified by a set of dominant design motifs that are raised above the background designs, creating a rich surface texture. While the taotie mask face assumes the central position in the body of the vessel, other interesting features emerge such as the intricate lines along the sides of the legs, the central flanges that are echoed along the length of the legs, and the interplay between two animal forms, one with large horns devouring the other, that make up the handle.
