Microsoft Edge and IE issue again and workaround
So here again a post on Microsoft issues though in past I have already written several posts on different issues from Microsoft. Here are few of them:
Year 2011- Message: Invalid argument: IE 8 Issue
Year 2012 - Authentication in Office documents and Apache in IE8/IE9 on Win 7
Year 2019 -IE11 issue with arrow and includes JavaScript method
Year 2019 - Microsoft Visio and infamous Windings font
So you see I am reporting and writing about MS issues for almost 10 years 😭 But they don't change!
Anyways, lets talk about current issue:
So, I have a web based application where I open a pop-up window using window.open()
method while clicking on a object/url. If I click on another URL then the same pop-up should get updated with new info and should bring in front. Quite simple operation! This works fine in Chrome, Firefox but when I tested the same in IE11 I saw that content of the pop-up window got updated on clicking on another object/url but the window remained in background. This is very annoying.. So I thought IE is always full of bugs and guys from redmond have made a new browser which they project as in lines with Chrome and FF so I thought that it must have been solved.. but to my surpirse in Edge also this doesn't work means that your pop-up window is updated in background but loose focus. This means that you always have to go and check your pop-up manually. And, this is not specific to my application check window.open example at W3C School
So what is the solution – After playing with some configration params of IE 11, I figured it out that if you do the below setting then it gets resolved.
Internet options => Tabs -> Always open pop-ups in new window
It's almost 5 years our beloved Microsoft has not solved this issue in Edge not even answered this question .. they took out a feature for handling pop-ups from IE11 with no new solution in edge.. so inconsistent as always!
As Microsoft has not given any solution for Edge so I have used a workaround which is using
Example code:
var win_name =
window.open('url', 'TestPage', 'width=700,height=750,resizable,scrollbars,top=200,left=200');
// have to call .focus for IE 11 and Edge to bring refreshed window in front
btw I don't use and recommend IE, edge but we have to use for testing our product because some of the IT managers still advice IE to their organization and as a product we have to fix silly Microsoft bugs and sometimes customer thinks our software is buggy 😭
Stay Safe.

When Cleopas and his wife talked to Jesus on the road to Emmaus that first Easter morning, initially they didn't recognize Him. On today's edition of Family Talk, Pastor Clayton King surmises what prompted them to finally recognize their Savior. After Jesus led his followers in that unique 7-mile-long Bible study, He broke bread, passing it to them with His palm facing upward, and they saw for the first time His nail-scarred wrists. Have your eyes and hearts been open to the Lord just as Cleopas and his wife's were in Luke 24?

Time-of-Use pricing is an electric rate schedule that varies the price of your electricity based on how much you use it and when you use it. The cost of consuming electricity is greater during high-energy usage hours, which more truly reflects the cost of electricity on the grid at that time. Time-of-Use pricing is designed to encourage you to use electricity during off-peak hours when power is cheaper and demand is lower, reducing strain on the electric grid. Here are the four most important things to know about time-of-use rates:
1. In 2022, all customers will be subject to time-of-use pricing.
Starting in March 2022, MCE customers who are not currently on a time-of-use rate will be put into a time-of-use rate class as part of a statewide time-of-use transition. You will receive a notification three months before to being transitioned with information on how to opt-out of the transition and what rate options are available. Based on your account's previous usage, a cost comparison of the available rate alternatives will be offered. You'll be able to try it risk-free for 12 months with bill protection and switch at any time. Prior to the 2022 shift, you can also choose to enroll in time-of-use pricing.
2. The cost of energy varies depending on when you consume it.
Time-of-Use pricing represents the cost of electricity at the time you use it. As a result, electricity prices will fluctuate depending on the time of day and season. Electric consumption rises in the evenings as we turn on our lights and prepare dinner, resulting in higher, or fluctuating, rates "Energy prices are at an all-time high. During the day, consumption and demand are lower, resulting in lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower "During off-peak hours, energy costs are lower.
When is the best time to consume electricity?
Late at night or early in the morning, electricity is often cheaper, thus those are the times when you can save money on your power bill. This is due to the fact that these are off-peak hours, when fewer people are utilizing electricity.
What is a time-of-use rate, and how does it work?
Rate plans depending on how much energy you use and when you use it are known as time-of-use rates. You may save money and help the environment by shifting some of your electricity usage to periods when costs are lower and demand is lower.
What is the method for calculating time-of-use?
Time-of-use metering is a way of calculating and billing a utility customer's energy consumption based on when it is utilized. During peak hours of the day, when electricity usage is highest, utility companies charge extra. Rates for TOUs differ by location and utility.
Is time-of-use preferable to tiered?
The pilots also revealed that a rate change would likely result in "less than 1% of the GHG reduction the commission supported," and that energy efficiency achieves bigger GHG reductions without the risk of bill consequences, he noted.
According to Hawiger, TURN has long opposed TOU pricing and supported for California's tiered rates. "Customers who use less electricity than the average pay the lowest rate, which climbs as usage increases. Customers that use less electricity on average pay more with TOU rates than with tiered rates because they utilize electricity during high-priced peak hours."
Customer education, according to TOU supporters, will address Hawiger's concerns. According to Faruqui, a hypothetical "shadow" bill created ahead of the TOU rate adoption indicates customers their potential savings. "Bill protection" assures transferring consumers that their TOU charges will not be higher than their previous prices.
"Like a daily energy sale, utility communications should pitch the rate as an opportunity to save money by stressing the lower off-peak price rather than the higher peak pricing," Faruqui added.
According to Faruqui, effective customer education and the power of marketing worked for Oklahoma Gas and Electric. "By offering a chance to save money and delivering a free smart thermostat, it was able to persuade 20% of its clients to choose an optional time varying rate with five different pricing."
However, Hawiger is suspicious of California's massively expensive customer education efforts. "With the exception of appeals for conservation during the 2000-2001 energy crisis, I have found no indication of meaningful behavioural change," he stated. "It took a crisis and the governor's daily multimedia appeals."
He admits that the pilots exhibit very minor improvements in behavior. "TOU rates may result in small peak and GHG reductions, but are they superior than tiered rate conservation? Customers who can afford and benefit from enabling technologies should be able to opt out of TOU prices."
Low-moderate income customers and enabling technologies
Customers with low and moderate income (LMI) are disproportionately affected by TOU rates, according to Hawiger. "We favor tiered prices because they protect affordability for low usage clients," says LMI. "There isn't a perfect correlation, but LMI customers use less electricity on average."
Customers would have a new way to cut their expenses under TOU rates, he noted. "Customers have demonstrated in pilots that they can and do use TOU rates to lower their bills by moving consumption away from peak times, lowering their bills. They can also opt out if they are dissatisfied."
Customers with "steeply-tiered rates" utilized more electricity than those with very precise tiers, according to a research referenced by SCE in California's TOU pricing process, Ramirez noted. With TOU rates, another research mentioned in separate SCE testimony revealed "extremely low income homes had load reductions similar to, or slightly bigger than, the general population."
The CPUC final ruling ordering default TOU rates indicated that energy usage is impacted by "several factors," including "climate and family size." "In this case, the research suggests a poor relationship between income and usage."
Is it more cost-effective to consume electricity time?
Off-peak hours tend to be quieter periods when electricity demands are at their lowest, depending on your energy provider (for example, between 10pm and 8am). Although not everyone has the luxury of doing their laundry before 8 a.m., it's worth checking with your supplier to see if there is a cheaper running time that fits your schedule.
SSE Energy Services claims that with Off-Peak E, you get eight hours of the cheapest saved heat rate per day. This will start at 10 p.m. and will last eight hours. Meanwhile, Off-Peak F provides you with 10.5 hours of lower-cost electricity every day for stored heat. These periods are between 1.30 and 4 p.m., and between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. overnight. Finally, Off-Peak Fx has the best rate (between 4am and 2.30pm).
Please be aware that leaving household appliances on while sleeping can result in a fire.
Is it still cheaper to use electricity at night?
The meter type associated with an Economy 7 electricity tariff is known as Economy 7 (E7). Differential plans and multi-rate plans are two terms used to describe them. E7 meters are typically seen in residences that use electricity rather than gas for heating and hot water.
Your power will be charged at two rates with an Economy 7 tariff: a day rate and a night rate. Electricity is cheaper for seven hours at night (off-peak) and more expensive during the day. This means your meter will display two sets of numbers: one for your 'regular' or daytime power consumption, and another for your 'low' or nighttime electricity use. Rate 1 and 2, or R1 and R2, are other names for this.
Can you get an E7 meter/tariff for gas?
No, there isn't an Economy 7 gas tariff. Gas is mostly utilized for cooking, central heating, and hot water, all of which must be used at night.
What in a house consumes the most electricity?
The breakdown of energy use in a typical home is depicted in today's infographic from Connect4Climate.
It displays the average annual cost of various appliances as well as the appliances that consume the most energy over the course of the year.
Modern convenience comes at a cost, and keeping all those air conditioners, freezers, chargers, and water heaters running is the third-largest energy demand in the US.
Here are the things in your house that consume the most energy:
- Cooling and heating account for 47% of total energy consumption.
- Water heater consumes 14% of total energy.
- 13 percent of energy is used by the washer and dryer.
- Lighting accounts for 12% of total energy use.
- Refrigerator: 4% of total energy consumption
- Electric oven: 34% energy consumption
- TV, DVD, and cable box: 3% of total energy consumption
- Dishwasher: 2% of total energy consumption
- Computer: 1% of total energy consumption
One of the simplest ways to save energy and money is to eliminate waste. Turn off "vampire electronics," or devices that continue to draw power even when switched off. DVRs, laptop computers, printers, DVD players, central heating furnaces, routers and modems, phones, gaming consoles, televisions, and microwaves are all examples.
A penny saved is a cent earned, and being more energy efficient is excellent for your wallet and the environment, as Warren Buffett would undoubtedly agree.
What is a kilowatt-hour?
A kilowatt-hour is a unit of measurement for the amount of energy used by an appliance in kilowatts per hour. For example, if you vacuum your floors for an hour using a 1,000-watt vacuum cleaner, you will use 1 kWh of energy. How many watts your appliances use and how often you use them are factors in your kilowatt-hour consumption.

Newly opened Applied Research Building marks a 'substantial leap forward' in scientific research
The University of Arizona celebrated the grand opening of the Applied Research Building on Wednesday, April 5. The new facility will support the work of faculty, staff and students from several colleges, departments, institutes and centers in developing innovations in space exploration and advanced manufacturing. The Arizona Space Institute will also be headquartered in the building.
The Applied Research Building is an integral part of the University's effort to stay at the cutting edge of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, President Robert C. Robbins said at the grand opening of the new facility.
Robbins delivered remarks alongside Elizabeth "Betsy" Cantwell, senior vice president for research and innovation, Tim Swindle, director of the Arizona Space Institute, and Peter Dourlein, University architect and associate vice president for planning, design and construction.
"You can't translate research into applied science without an investment in fundamental discovery," Robbins said. "I thank Dr. Cantwell and everyone that works with her for providing the framework to support our faculty, staff and students in that fundamental discovery and translate those discoveries into commercial products that make the world a better place."
The Applied Research Building represents "a substantial leap forward" in the University's ability to conduct and advance scientific research with an interdisciplinary approach, Cantwell said.
"Every square inch of the Applied Research Building is designed to enable real-world, applied innovations," she said. "This building and the people housed here will provide regionally unique capabilities for the University, allow for expansion of industry and advanced manufacturing partnerships, and turn research and discovery into practical, real-world solutions that produce societal impact."
Construction on the three-story, 89,000-square-foot building, located at 1420 E. Helen St., began in 2021. ARB was designed by SmithGroup, built by McCarthy Building Cos. and powered by renewable energy as part of an agreement between the University and Tucson Electric Power. TEP supplies power to the University from solar facilities in southeast Tucson and wind power facilities in New Mexico.
(Visit University of Arizona News to see photos taken at the April 5 ribbon-cutting ceremony.)
The Applied Research Building will serve as a world-class test and integration center for satellites, spacecraft and other scientific equipment, including a 40-ton thermal vacuum chamber used to replicate conditions in outer space that is the largest of its kind at any university in the world. The 81,000-pound chamber allows researchers to simulate both the pressure and temperature conditions of space and is large enough to fit a pickup truck.
Some of the other features of the building are:
A high bay payload assembly area. With cranes named Wilbur and Wilma Wildcat, this 40-foot-high space will be used for assembling, testing and storing high-altitude stratospheric balloons and nanosatellites known as CubeSats. Next door to the area is the Dynamic Testing Lab, where a wide range of objects, from airplane wings to sensors, will be studied.
The CubeSat Laboratory. By providing a clean environment for assembly, the lab will help to maximize reliability of space hardware. A CubeSat is about the size of a toaster, though some are only 4 inches across and weigh less than 3 pounds.
An anechoic chamber. This non-reflective, echo-free room is designed to test antennae for command, control and data relay purposes. The chamber is designed to keep radio waves from bouncing, and the conditions of the chamber allow researchers to test the performance of experimental antennae.
The Missions Operations Center. Here, scientists and engineers will monitor and command spacecraft and balloons after launch. Equipped with all the computers, networks and software needed to manage a mission from the ground, the control center will be able to conduct certain mission operations for NASA.
The Space Materials Curation Facility. This is an archive of materials used to study the spectral signatures of artificial and natural objects orbiting the Earth and moon to monitor and enhance space traffic management, national security and planetary defense.
The Imaging Technology Laboratory. This space positions the University as a world-leading supplier of advanced scientific imaging sensors for visible, ultraviolet and X-ray light detection – and supports industry partnerships with Lockheed Martin, Ball Aerospace and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory. The lab's federal partners include NASA, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy and the Department of Defense.
There is also a laboratory for advanced and additive manufacturing, which will allow researchers to design and fabricate complex materials for national security, space exploration, biomedicine and communications applications.
"Infrastructure such as the Applied Research Building is an investment in the future of not only the University of Arizona as one of the nation's top research institutions, but also an investment in the future of science and technology and of society at large," Cantwell said.

UN atomic agency provides training in live-saving medical technologies
The Hungarian company Mediso donated gamma camera equipment – used in oncology, cardiology, neurology and orthopaedics, as well as in pharmacology research – to the UN International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Not only are the cameras extremely expensive, but they are also very complex and sensitive.
"This state-of-the-art equipment will be used to give specialists from recipient countries the quality assurance they need to run this technology effectively," said IAEA Deputy Director General for the Department of Nuclear Sciences and Applications Werner Burkart. "We are not just sending a machine with a manual: we want to make sure that the specialists really understand this technology."
Dr. Burkart anticipates hundreds of doctors and specialized personnel being taught how to use the equipment in month-long sessions at the IAEA facility in Seibersdorf, and he hopes that they will be able to apply what they learn during the training in their home countries.
"We take many things for granted, but the task of running a gamma camera in a developing country is hard," he noted. "Often these machines are used for tens of years in a dusty, sandy and hot environment where people do not have a service company to call up. That's a considerable task."
The IAEA has a history of involvement in projects to curb the spread of cancer. In 2004, the agency launched the Programme of Action for Cancer Therapy to address the developing world's soaring cancer rates. More recently, the IAEA has put the monetary reward it received upon winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 2005 towards training cancer therapy specialists in poor nations.

Process of extending the Overview console
You can add columns to, or extend the Overview console. Also, you can add information from additional request forms. When extending the Overview console to include additional requests, you might need to perform additional customizations to complete the process.
If you are upgrading from a customized ARDBC Overview console implementation of the Overview console, the existing overlaid z2TH_ConsolidateTable1 table will still be configured to use the SHR:ARDBC_OverviewConsole form. The steps contained in this section can be used to prepare the database union structure in the back end, and after that is complete, the table can be reconfigured to use the SHR:Union_OverviewConsole form to complete the implementation.
For adding columns or custom records to the Overview console, see:
Configuration forms used when extending the Overview console
The Overview console configuration forms are available only to users with Administrator permissions and must be opened by using the direct URL through Mid Tier.
Form name | Purpose |
SHR:Union_DataSource_UsedBy | Define the implementation area. |
SHR:Union_DataSource_Forms | Define the source data forms. |
SHR:Union_DataSource_Fields | Define the union fields that appear in the AR View Form. |
SHR:Union_DataSource_FieldMappings | Define how the source fields map to the union fields. |
SHR:Union_ConfigurationConsole | View the configuration and build or rebuild the database union structure. |
SHR:Union_OverviewConsole | View form that points to the union view within the database. |
If you are including a selection field that will contain different enumerated values across the various source forms or request types, you must create a consolidated list of the values. For more information, see Adding requests to existing Overview console columns.
For example, the following table shows how to map the Status Values (Field ID 7) from different request forms to the ConsolidatedStatus field, which is displayed on the Overview console:
Source form | Enumerated values with their ID |
HPD:Help Desk | New (0) |
PBM:Problem Investigation | Draft (0) |
CHG:Infrastructure Change | Draft (0) |
XYZ:CustomForm | New (0) |
The following list shows the consolidated status values that match the enumerated values shown in the preceding table:
- Draft (1000)
- Under Review (3000)
- New (6000)
- Request For Authorization (7000)
- Assigned (8000)
- Request For Change (9000)
- Planning In Progress (10000)
- Scheduled For Review (11000)
- Scheduled For Approval (12000)
- Scheduled (14000)
- Implementation In Progress (15000)
- Under Investigation (17000)
- In Progress (18000)
- Pending (19000)
- Resolved (25000)
- Completed (27000)
- Rejected (28000)
- Closed (32000)
- Cancelled (33000)
- Custom Status A (90001)
- Custom Status B (90003)
- Custom Status C (90005)
If a value already exists in the ConsolidatedStatus field, you do not need to add it again. If you are adding the custom values to the field, use odd-numbered IDs to reduce the chance of interfering with subsequent upgrades, which use even-numbered IDs.

StemRx Bioscience Solutions Pvt. Ltd. successfully treated a 21 months' old kid Alfa from Uganda who was unable to walk due to a rare neurological disorder called "Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS)" that affects the development of certain blood vessels, causing abnormalities in the brain, skin, and eye. It is the 1st case of SWS treated in India using cell based therapy helping the baby walk tall.
Everything was normal till Alfa was 14 months old, when he suddenly suffered febrile seizures(fits during fever) along with shortness of breath in July 2018. Parents took him to local medical facility for treatments in Uganda. It was shocking for parents when during the treatment at the hospital, the baby suffered another episode of fits and went in to coma for about 3 weeks. Further diagnosis and CT scan confirmed infection in brain and surrounding tissues due to Sturge-Weber syndrome.
For getting a good care for baby Alfa, her parent decided to come to India; were they met Dr. Pradeep Mahajan, Regenerative Medicine Researcher at StemRx Bioscience Solutions Pvt. Ltd in September 2018, for cell based therapy. "After a thorough examination 2 sessions of cell based therapy was given to the kid. A holistic approach with daily allied therapies such as physiotherapy, yoga and hyperbaric oxygen therapy was employed which started giving dramatic results."
Earlier, Alfa had symptoms of sudden head dropping, neuromuscular in-coordination, vision impairment, difficulty in sitting and standing, irritability, minimal facial expressions with no verbal appreciation and negligible concentration. His developmental milestones were delayed since recovery from the coma. After the session of cell based therapy and rehabilitation, Alfa's mother said, "My son can now sit without support, stands with support, responds appropriately to sounds, has better head control with negligible head dropping and is showing signs of milestone development according to his age."
What is Sturge-Weber syndrome?
SWS is a condition that affects the development of certain blood vessels, causing abnormalities in the brain, skin, and eyes. SWS is estimated to affect 1 in 20,000 to 50,000 individuals. Classically, a congenital facial birthmark may be present along with neurological abnormalities. The condition is genetic, caused by mutation in GNAQ gene, and the resultant protein expressed by this gene regulates signaling pathways to help control the development and function of blood vessels.
The hypothesis is that, there is persistence of vascular plexus around the cephalic portion of the neural tube, which develops during the sixth week of intrauterine development but normally undergoes regression during the ninth week. There is usually abnormal formation and growth of blood vessels within the two thin layers of tissue that cover the brain and spinal cord. This abnormality can lead to formation of angioma (tumor derived from vascular cells), which can impair blood flow to the brain and lead to atrophy of brain tissue and calcium deposition in the brain.
The decrease in blood flow can cause stroke-like episodes, leading to paralysis/weakness in limbs etc. Patients may present with varying levels of cognitive function, from normal intelligence to intellectual disability. Ocular involvement can result in glaucoma, choroidalhemangioma, buphthalmos (enlargement of eyeball), or hemianopis (altered vision in half the visual field).

A synergistic blend of buffered organic acids
Organic acids have been used for many years to prevent the bacterial and fungal destruction of feedstuffs. Besides, they are utilized as an alternative for antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in animal nutrition. Currently, drinking water acidification is another implementation in the broiler industry used for improving performance. Addition of organic acid to the drinking water helps to reduce the level of pathogens in the water and the crop/proventriculus, to regulate gut microflora, to increase the digestion of feed and to improve growth performance.
Organic acids raised gastric proteolysis and improved the digestibility of protein and amino acids. The positive effect of organic acids on digestion is related to a slower passage of feed in the intestinal tract, a better absorption of the necessary nutrients and less wet droppings.
Indications for use | • To reduce the pathogen load |
Administration and dosage | Through drinking water |
Special warnings | Keep out of reach of children. |
Storage | Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light. |

The unofficial guide to home renovations in Toronto
A home renovation in Toronto can be a daunting task if you've got a house that needs some work. Where do you start?
The following guide summarizes insights from experienced home renovators into an number of important steps, including permit applications, the do's and don'ts of working with a contractor, prioritizing your work, and purchasing the right materials.
You will learn so much more on your path to completing your project, but you can avoid some common mistakes by starting your journey here.
Here's an unofficial guide to renovating your home in Toronto.
Toronto has been around for about 229 years, and at least 4,500 homes in the city fall under the designated heritage category while hundreds more have been listed for consideration.
The city requires owners of heritage properties to obtain a Heritage Permit before performing any work that entails altering, demolishing, or building on them.
In order to determine whether the property you are looking to renovate falls under any of these categories, the city provides a searchable database.
Thousands of homes in Toronto are listed under the city's heritage register. Others are heritage-designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, and others may form part of a heritage conservation district.
While renovating a heritage property is not entirely impossible, legislation at both the provincial and municipal levels serve to preserve the architecture, specifically, the exterior of the property.
In terms of the interior, one of the most common problems with homes that fall under the heritage category is energy efficiency.
Within the last two centuries, homebuilding technology has changed drastically. For example, modern insulation is manufactured into sheets that fit perfectly into joist and stud cavities.
In the 1950s, builders would blow cellulose into walls without ensuring full coverage of the cavities. Consequently, this left thermal leaks where cold drafts could enter a property in the winter and allow cool air to escape in the summer.
To know and understand which features of a designated heritage property must be conserved, you can search the address using the city's Heritage Property Search Tool and find the applicable by-law.
Once you've established an ordered list of the work you'd like to accomplish, just stick with it no matter what. This will help you conserve time and resources in the long run.
Use this opportunity to establish a budget for the materials you will require and the cost of renting or purchasing new tools and equipment. Your budget should incorporate quotes from licenced contractors.
If applicable, add transportation and hotel stays to your budget as some types of work require properties to be vacant for extended periods.
Priority means attending to health and safety hazards such as asbestos removal or mould remediation immediately.
Anything to do with the foundation of a house, like excavation or concrete pouring, must be done first. Once the foundation is cured, you and or your contractors can work on framing the house or section to be reconstructed.
When it comes to the interior mechanics of your home, it's best to prioritize the work according to the rigidity of the materials used. For example, because HVAC duct work requires larger and the least flexible of materials, it is important to do this work first as it will take up the most space.
After this, you may go ahead with the plumbing as drains and water pipes are typically smaller than those materials used for HVAC. Leave electrical work for last as electrical wires are very flexible. They are naturally malleable and can be adjusted around other systems within the walls.
Determine how much of the renovation you can rely on your own personal skills, energy and time to complete.
Maybe you've switched a P-trap under a sink or installed a few light switches in your time, or maybe not. Whatever your level of expertise may be, knowing and respecting which jobs should be left to licensed professionals will be your way of saving time, money and even lives.
If you are bringing plumbing to a region of the house where there was none before, you will most certainly require a plumber to perform the work for you.
The same would apply to major electrical work such as changing your panel from a 100 amp to a 200 amp service.
You might not have any trade skills to offer your home renovation, and yet there is still something you can do. Toronto's rich coffee culture means you are most likely a short drive or a brisk walk away from sourcing some godly nectar of the finest beans to keep your crew caffeinated and even fed!
Construction jobs are physically taxing, so thoughtful gestures can go a long way and should never be spared.
Toronto's home renovations require a Building Permit. If your completed application satisfies the city's requirements, this process should not take more than 10 business days.
The baseline fee for any building permit is $198.59 as of 2022, and there is an hourly rate of $85.79 for any inspection of the property.
To calculate the fee for a building permit, the city multiplies the applicable value for the work to be done as found in the service index by the total floor area in m2.
For example, the fees for residential spaces are categorized under construction group "C" of this service index, which indicates a fee of $52.08 per unit included in an application.
You can find information relating to fees for other types of work including demolition, zoning certificates and miscellaneous work in this service index as well.
For convenience, the city enables online payments for some permit fees through its website.
This topic is probably a universe unto itself, but let's start with some tried and true basics.
The city of Toronto provides a detailed guide on building permit applications, which also delineates the types of work that require permits.
In this same section you will find permit application guides for interior alterations, small residential additions, and residential underpinning.
Take the time to read this guide.
While permit applications may feel like a nerve-racking nuisance, try to appreciate the city's measures to ensure your building process will not become hazardous to yourself or anyone else during or post-construction.
Moreover, take time to appreciate the penalties for getting caught working on your house without a permit. If you do choose to skip this process altogether, know that it only takes one phone call to the city from a nosy neighbour for an inspector to show up at your door unannounced.
The fine for work without a permit is equal to 50 per cent of the applicable permit fees up to $27,234.64 as of 2021. If caught, the city will most likely require you to stop all work on the property, and in some cases, demand that you disassemble some of the work already completed.
For your application to be processed as rapidly as possible, any building or floor plans must be prepared by a structural engineer and contain their official seal. With this criteria in place, the city does not need to further scrutinize your application. The structural engineer will assume full liability for any builds they've approved.
Once you've got the green light to create the home of your dreams, you have entered the "open permit" building stage and can start hacking away at that work list.
Every bit of work to be done on your home will require a set of tools and materials that you may or may not have accounted for in your budget, and that's the name of the game.
Renovating what someone else built means not knowing exactly what or how much of something you will need until you're covered in dust, sweating under your hard hat and standing face-to-face with some culprit-build that made sense in another time.
At every new obstacle, DO take the time to fully assess the materials that you may require for your solution. This will minimize the number of trips you make to your local hardware store and help you save time and energy.
DO take the time to get to know the service staff at your local hardware store. You'd be surprised how many of the people working the shop floors are retired contractors or people with decades of experience in the distribution or manufacturing areas of the construction industry. They will have all kinds of helpful insights to offer you on your journey.
DO invest in quality materials. This is a no-brainer; however, buying products manufactured in Canada is the best rule of thumb to follow for ensuring your builds are made with integrity.
In Toronto's hot real estate market, many people will claim to be general contractors. In other words, they will claim to be among those at the top of the construction hierarchy regardless of their skill level and experience.
DO vet them out by asking a lot of questions. You may want to start out by asking for simple details like the length of their career as a contractor.
If you're looking to hire someone for a tiling job in your kitchen for instance, ask to view samples of previous work.
If someone claims to be experienced in framing, ask what sort of structures they have framed and for how many years. Maybe they've only ever framed a few individual units within a home, but never an entire property.
Many contractors advertise their work on social media, so take the time to view some of their before and after pics to help you make your decision.
Keep in mind that the better the contractor, the higher the fees and the longer it may take them to start work on your property. You may be waiting a year in the current market.
DON'T pay a contractor outright before the job is done. In Toronto's high volume construction market, contractors might cut corners as they rush to take on the next job. Some might commit to taking on more work than they actually intend to finish, accepting retainers that clients must pay upfront before disappearing.
DON'T rely on contractors to pick up materials for you as they may charge for quality materials but may instead provide you with sub-par materials to turn a profit. Ensure that you select, purchase and pick up your materials on your own or through someone you trust and leave them onsite for contractors to use.
DO maintain some level of supervision. If you cannot be there physically for the duration of the renovation, ask for progress pictures. Many contractors in today's construction economy use social media to advertise their brand and quality of work through images, so asking for pictures shouldn't be an issue.
At various stages of your renovation, you will be required to contact the city and book an inspection.
If your home renovation involves excavating and pouring concrete for the foundation, you should expect to have an inspection before and after this process.
The city specifically provides details of the underpinning process for permit applications, inspections, and necessary documents.
When all of your framing, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing are completed, you will have reached the "rough-in" stage of your renovation. At this point, someone from the city will conduct a rough-in inspection to ensure proper integration of all mechanics in the home before the installation of walls and subfloors.
After you have installed fixtures, lighting, and doors, your property will be ready for a final inspection.
If your property successfully passes this final inspection, the city will close all of the outstanding permits. The whole building phase is now complete.
DON'T keep outstanding permits on file as they can create complications when you try to sell your home in the future or refinance your mortgage.
Additionally, outstanding permits can give potential homebuyers leverage over your sale, making low ball offers and ultimately bringing down the value of your property.
I hope some part of this guide will prove useful to your home renovation adventure. I'm rooting for you!

Chinese Manufacturing PMI: USD/CNH, AUD, NZD and JPY pairs, Copper, China A50, Hang Seng
China's manufacturing sector has contracted two consecutive months, adding to the chorus of calls for a global slowdown. That said, the rate of contraction slowed in July, and if PMI is to climb back above 50, we'd expect a bout of risk-on for the session. AUD pairs are particularly sensitive to the data as they're key trade partners, but Chinese indices and copper also make decent markets to monitor around the data's release.
RBA Cash Rate Decision and Q3 GDP: AUD pairs, ASX200
At time of writing, the RBA rate indicator expects just an 11% chance of a 25 cut on Tuesday. This moves to 74% for a cut in October and a 115% cut (ie fully priced in) for November. This is no major surprise, given they cut by 25 bps in June and July and their August minutes provided a 'steady as she goes' approach, whilst emphasising external risks such as the trade war. Moreover, GDP data is out on Wednesday and they'd likely want this data on hand before easing further. Yet this still could be a high volatility event if there is a notable shift in tone with their statement.
As for GDP, RBA expect growth to average around 2.5% this year. With Q1 GDP hitting 1.8%, it's not off to a great start and, with ANZ expecting it to drop to 1.1% in Q2 and the consensus at 1.4%, economists seem doubtful that RBA are on track to achieve their 2019 growth target. Expect AUD to remain under pressure and bring forward easing expectation should it hit 1.3% YoY or less.
BoC Rate Decision
It's unlikely BoC will change policy next week, given inflation remains around 2% has not 'dipped' as expected. Moreover, the 1-month OIS suggests less than a 20% chance of a cut at their next meeting. Still, markets suspect the next direction will be a cut, with 6-month OIS pricing in around 74% chance and a 25bps cut being bullish priced in by April next year. So we'll keep a close eye on the statement to see if there is a dovish twist, although chances are it will reiterate their need to monitor the energy sector and the impact of 'trade conflicts' whilst remaining optimistic over domestic growth.
US ISM Manufacturing: USD pairs, US indices, WTI, Gold, Silver
Global PMI remain under pressure and traders are waiting to see if manufacturing PMI dips below the 50% threshold to show the sector contracting. It's an important gauge for markets as it can lead GDP by 6-9 months, so any weakness here will translate to lower growth expectations, earnings for companies and therefor prices.
US and CA Nonfarm payroll: USD and CAD pairs, US indices, WTI, Gold, Silver
Employment is expected to soften to 155k, well below the 1-month average of 187.16 and unemployment is expected to hold steady at 3.7%. With ADP employment released on Thursday, and a 3-month correlation of 0.81, we could see NFP revised if ADP misses expectations. However, average hourly earnings may be the better read to follow as it has been trending notably higher on an annualised basis, so traders use it as an inflationary gauge (and therefor, a better read of how the Fed are likely to react). That said, as the CME FedWatch tool suggests 95.8% chance for Fed to cut 25bps in September, it's hard to see any such data will remove this almost given event. For that, we'd need to see a solid breakthrough in trade talks which, at present, appear unlikely to appear on the horizon.
Take note that Canada release employment data alongside NFP, which places USD/CAD in the sights of the volatility crossbow. CAD/CHF and CAD/JPY are also pairs to consider, if you want to focus on the Canadian employment side of things.

After 25 years of working in Disney animation, director Chris Williams decided that Netflix was the right place to finally make the animated action-adventure he always dreamed of with The Sea Beast. The film follows Jacob (Karl Urban), a hunter of sea monsters, and Maisie (Zaris-Angel Hator), a young stowaway, as they join the crew of the Inevitable and embark on a hunt for the elusive Red Bluster. The pair soon discover that the beasts are not as sinister as they are rumored to be, which causes Jacob to grapple with the idea of what it truly means to be a hero. The film was animated by Sony Pictures Imageworks, who also provided the animation last year for The Mitchells vs the Machines.

DEADLINE: Where did the idea for The Sea Beast come from?
CHRIS WILLIAMS: When I was younger, I really loved movies and I particularly loved adventure stories. I remember just being completely engrossed and enthralled with the idea of venturing off into uncharted territory. I remember having a great time watching Raiders of the Lost Ark and being very cognizant of the fact that adults made that movie. It made me realize that I could grow up without abandoning all the things that I love, and it was strangely a very reassuring moment for me.
I was at Disney Animation for 25 years, and the whole time I thought, "Boy, wouldn't it be great one day to make a proper action adventure movie in animation?" So, that was always gnawing away at me. At the same time, I used to love those old unfinished maps, where the map makers would feel compelled to populate those big open swaths of ocean with these really fanciful sea monsters.
Eventually it started to gather steam as a story, and I had this amazing opportunity where Netflix Animation was just coming into being. They were brand new and they wanted to tell different kinds of stories, risky stories, so I talked to them about this idea of a big action adventure movie with sea monsters. They were they were really excited about it, but I did warn them that it was going to be incredibly ambitious and not inexpensive, and they were completely unafraid.
DEADLINE: So, what would you say was the most ambitious part of it?
WILLIAMS: I think it's just the sheer scale of the world. We emphasized that we wanted this to feel immersive, and that ultimately comes down to really sweating the details. We go to a lot of different places, so we wanted a really rich and believable culture and history to this world, and the way you convey that is by really making sure that you're paying attention to the little things. A lot of the time, there are elements in the frame that are not necessarily drawing your eye, but they're just making you believe in what you're seeing. And, of course, nothing in animation just happens, you know, everything is a choice. Everything has to get designed and built, so you really are asking people to buy into that ocean and to go the extra mile to make the world feel rich and believable.
Also, just the sheer volume of the effects, you know, there was so much interaction with the water and we were very fortunate to be working with Sony Imageworks because they've had experience with that kind of thing. Oftentimes I would say, "Hey, if you need me to reframe a little bit and crop out that water contact, we could talk about that." But I think they were proud of what they were doing on the film, and I think that they wanted to show what they could do. They never shrank from a challenge, which I think is one of the cool things about the animation industry – people don't tend to run away from a challenge.
DEADLINE: You have these big fight scenes between the sea monsters and the ships, and you also have that one between Red and the giant crab, what's the process of animating those?
WILLIAMS: Well, we always knew that we wanted a big proper kaiju battle. When you have a movie about monsters, it's almost a promise to the audience that they're going to get that moment where two big monsters square off. It's a years-long process that starts with talking to the story team about story and character. The story has to continue to move forward, and you have to feel real peril and change throughout, so we would talk about it from a story standpoint, and then we would get into the choreography and we would spend months and months storyboarding those complicated scenes, and re-storyboarding, and then looking at it in editorial and reworking it.
And I'm working with people like Owen Sullivan, our head of story, who is just a master of action choreography and knows that it's important to make it entertaining as well as being thrilling and dangerous. Our editor Joyce [Arrastia] is really good with action and timing and incredible with all the sound effects that we need to really make the scene come alive. So, it's a collaboration with talented people over many months and ultimately years that leads to making those scenes work. I've always been a real fan of action in movies, and when you do it right it feels like that's just pure cinema.
DEADLINE: The film has this message that you don't really hear often, where you can be a hero and still be wrong. And it's the choice you make after you find out you're wrong that really defines you. Where did that come from?
WILLIAMS: Early on I talked about the idea that the movie was about this cycle of violence, and how it perpetuates itself and how difficult it can be to break that cycle at times. As we explored that, we took it another step deeper where we said that there are times where powerful entities will try to create a narrative that pits us against each other to help accelerate and perpetuate that cycle to serve their own ends. It was in that deepening that we started to really see this intersection where it was not just about the cycle of revenge. It was also something that was used as almost a weapon. We kept rewriting and story boarding that scene in the shell, because it felt like there was something we were trying to say and it wasn't coming. We hadn't found a way to articulate it until we came up with that line, "You can be a hero and still be wrong." It really makes you understand that we all operate with the facts that we have and you have to be judged with the knowledge that that's all we have to operate with.
Sometimes, someone can be doing something that feels wrong, but from their perspective it seems right, and we have to talk about that. That has to be part of the conversation. As we're developing the story over the years, we're also talking about the thematic ideas that have to sit underneath the story. One of the things that we talked about a lot is that we wanted to make a movie that feels like a pure action, adventure, fantasy story that would wear its influences on its sleeve. I wanted it to feel like a classic adventure story, but at the same time we're trying to speak to an audience today. I think that was one of the things that gives the movie energy. It has a classic style, but contemporary ideas.
