Canadian market leader named 'Official Home Improvement Retailer' of Toronto Maple Leafs, Raptors and Marlies
BOUCHERVILLE, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Sept. 3, 2009) - RONA Inc. (TSX:RON), and Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. (MLSE), announced today a new five-year corporate partnership agreement.
RONA, Canada's leading distributor and retailer of hardware, home improvement and gardening products, will become the Official Home Improvement Retailer of the Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL), Toronto Raptors (NBA) and Toronto Marlies (AHL). RONA is already the Official Home Improvement Retailer for MLSE's soccer club Toronto FC.
The exclusive partnership rights include permanent, camera-visible RONA branding at these teams' home games at Air Canada Centre and Ricoh Coliseum, including on-ice RONA logos during Maple Leafs and Marlies preseason, regular and postseason home games. RONA will also gain hosting opportunities, in which its in-store customers can win exclusive tickets to Leafs, Raptors and Marlies games.
RONA has been a corporate partner of Toronto FC since 2007 as their Official and exclusive home improvement partner. In Spring 2009, RONA signed an extension with Toronto FC by two-years to continue its exclusive game and permanent signage at BMO Field.
The partnership will have RONA team up and engage in MLSE's community and city building initiatives including the Toronto Maple Leafs Outdoor Practice, Toronto Marlies Outdoor Practice and the Leafs Hockey Legacy Rink Refurbishment program. RONA and its employees will contribute supplies and volunteer labour to support the rink refurbishment.
"We are thrilled to associate our winning RONA team with these important Canadian sports teams," said Robert Dutton, president and CEO of RONA. "The Maple Leafs, Marlies, Raptors and Toronto FC are an inspiration and source of pride for so many people, not just in Ontario, but all across Canada. In addition, the Raptors and Toronto FC are the only Canadian teams in their respective leagues, so we are especially proud to give them our support."
"Above all, RONA encourages the youth of Canada to live active lives, pursue their dreams and become winners-no matter what field of endeavour they are competing in," Mr. Dutton said. "Our sports sponsorships and community initiatives allow us to promote Canadian values of fair play, social responsibility and perseverance."
"We're excited to work with a proudly Canadian company like RONA that's a leader in its industry", said David Hopkinson, MLSE's senior vice-president of corporate and community partnerships. "RONA has a great reputation in the home improvement industry. Its commitment to athlete and sports development through its partnership with the Canadian Olympic and Paralympic Teams is second to none. We're pleased to extend our relationship with RONA to our hockey and basketball teams to further complement their existing partnership with Toronto FC."
From a marketing perspective, RONA's new partnership with MLSE will boost RONA's brand exposure in the highly-competitive Ontario market, where RONA has 180 stores and 6,600 employees. The fan bases and broadcast audiences for MLSE's four sports team represent a wide demographic spectrum.
RONA's partnership with MLSE is a continuation of its long-standing commitment to Canadian sports, both professional and amateur. RONA is already a National Partner of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games, as well as a National Partner of the Canadian Olympic and Paralympic Teams through the London 2012 Summer Games.

Leave it to the Docs
Well, I do learn something new every shift–and it isn't always pleasant. Take a recent shift as charge nurse: I found out pretty fast that I should ALWAYS let the docs have their conversations. Management was pretty smart in implementing a doc-to-doc conversation rule when it comes to major procedures and intervention on our floor. Unfortunately, I found out the hard way how valuable such a rule is.
Without going into too much detail, we had a minor emergency on our hands the other night that required surgical intervention. As charge nurse, I have to make sure everyone is in the "know" so I end up making phone calls. The reality is, if I don't make calls, sometimes we have a serious communication lapse. That in itself can get ugly.
So, I intervened and called a doc for another doctor–and all heck broke loose. I basically got caught in the middle of a huge blow up fight between the two of them, and consequently was not only thrown under the bus, but run over several time. This nurse became the fall guy–and if it wasn't for my team who stuck up for me, I would have had a serious melt down. I kept my cool, got everything accomplished in a timely and safe manner…but the patient heard the whole blow-up! AGGG! Up the chain of command I went…not fun after a 13 hour shift.
Yeah, so lesson learned. If there is a lapse in communication between docs, I'm not going to attempt to fix it–let them iron things out. I'll keep my mouth shut, do my job, and watch my butt while taking care of my patients.

After nursing school and studying "like she has never studied before" she entered the nursing profession eager to get her feet wet. The first years provided her with much exposure to sadness, joy and other complex human emotions. She feels that blogging is a wonderful outlet and a way for nurse bloggers to further build their community. Traditionally, midwives have handed down their skill set from midwife to apprentice midwife. She believes nurses have this same opportunity: to pass from nurse to new nurse the rich traditions of this profession.

Why are the Gili Islands becoming so popular?
There is a relationship between the rise in popularity in Balinese tourism and the popularity in tourists heading over to the Gili Islands. They are both increasing at a rapid rate. There are many reasons for this but the Gili Islands growth is actually quite frenetic. From a sleepy 3 island getaway, the Gili's is now on a lot of travellers to do list. No longer are the Gili Islands just the domain of the back packer looking for a cheaper alternative to Bali, they are now home to some fabulous family friendly resorts, villa and hotels where tourists are streaming in en masse.
So why are these small group of islands off the coast of Lombok so popular?
# 1. They are just incredibly beautiful and travellers that love nature, especially marine life are going to fall in love with the place. There are numerous outstanding diving spots that are world class and this attracts many people. Sure bali has some great diving but the Gilis' tales it to another level of pristine aquatic beauty.
# 2. Most people that come to the islands are from Bali. They take the fast boat to the Gilis from Sanur and are there in less than 2 hours. I would say a huge contributing factor in the rise of Gilis popularity is it's close proximity to Bali.
# 3. It's so close to Bali which makes it an easy decision to escape the hectic pace set by Bali for a few days. Let's be honest here Bali is somewhat over crowded and traffic jams can be a total nightmare. The noise, pollution and competition for the best villas can be a bit of a hassle and ruin ones holiday where as The Gili's are the exact opposite. I mean you couldn't have 2 locations that are so close but world's apart. Let me give you 1 example that should hammer the point home. There are no cars or motor bikes allowed on the Gili's. That' right! Whereas Bali has millions of scooters all chocking up the roads, there is not 1 single engine on any of the 3 islands ( Trawangan, Meno or Air). This is a major factor in the rise of popularity on the Gilis. Just imagine an island where there are no cars or bikes – this is why so many people come here. They all want to experience the same thing – peace, quiet and serenity.
# 4. There are some really top hotels, resorts and villas that are all reasonably priced. To add to this most of them are on the beach front. Ideal tropical getaways right on the beach, catering for all tastes and budgets put the Gilis high on any travellers bucket list. If your a back packer you can stay in a really great bungalow that's fully air conditioned with it's own pool for less that $50 per night and have beach front views. Alternatively, if your coming here as a family there are heaps of hotels, villas & bungalows on Trawangan all catering to families wanting their share of holiday paradise. All you need to do is search this website and see the amazing amount of fabulous hotels, resorts and villas.
# 5: If you enjoy a bit of night life then Trawangan definitely caters for this. It's mainly for the younger market ( in their 20's) with cheap booze and very loud music. There are a few bars in the main part of town which will not impact on those people craving peace and quiet.
# 6: There are so many great restaurants and cafes dotted around the islands where you can enjoy delicious, fresh seafood on the beach. If there is 1 thing that the Gili Islands does not have a shortage of, it's top beach side restaurants. Most of them are on the beach which means you don't have to travel far or get a taxi or get stuck in traffic jams. Here it's all about convenience and doing as little as possible. This is why the place is now so very popular. It's the laid back lifestyle that everyone is searching for. So when you have had enough of Bali and you want to really chill out get over tho the Gilis! We3 can promise you 1 thing, you are going to love the whole experience. Give it a try, even if it's for a couple of days.

In 1987, Robert Mullins returned to the United States after four years' association with ODP. On his return, he learned that sponsoring relatives had little idea, or the wrong idea, about how to complete processing and avoid delays in their cases. He also learned that he was the only person with ODP experience interested in offering assistance to sponsors in the U.S. As a result, he began his service to help Vietnamese in the U.S. to bring their relatives here.
In January 1988, Robert Mullins began a partnership with Le Minh Hai of San Jose and formed Robert Mullins International (RMI).

A CAMPAIGN aimed at driving home the message of safe sex is being launched in south Sefton this summer.
The initiative will encourage young people to adopt safer sexual practices after figures revealed an increase in cases of sexually transmitted infections (STI's) in the borough.
Director of public health for South Sefton PCT, Dr Janet Atherton said: "In common with other areas across the country, young people in South Sefton have a good understanding of HIV and AIDS compared with relatively little knowledge about other, more widespread sexually transmitted infections.
"This is of concern when you consider that chlamydia, for example, infects about one in eight people under the age of 25 and can cause ectopic pregnancy and infer-tility in women."
South Sefton PCT is also taking part in a national chlamydia screening programmed promoting availability of free contraceptive to reduce rising levels of STI's.
Dr Atherton said: "Anyone sexually active is at risk from a variety of infections and practising safer sex is the only form of protection."

The Silver Peak solution delivers data center class capacity and performance, making it a key enabler for strategic IT projects like virtualization, big data, and disaster recovery.
Virtual Acceleration Open Architecture (VXOA)
At the heart of the Silver Peak solution is the company's Virtual Acceleration Open Architecture (VXOA), a combination of software, tools, and pricing models that facilitate the deployment WAN optimization. VXOA software is used on all Silver Peak products, and includes the following real-time network optimization techniques:
|Silver Peak's patent-pending Network Memory™ technology to significantly reduce the amount of data traversing the WAN and ensure LAN-like application performance.

Hardware Appliances (NX)
Silver Peak's VXOA software can be deployed as standalone physical devices that seamlessly fit into any enterprise network. NX appliances require absolutely no client, server, or application reconfiguration, and scale from small branch offices to the largest data centers in the world..
Virtual Appliances (VX/VRX)
VX appliances are software-only versions of the Silver Peak solution. They support all the same VXOA features as their NX counterparts with comparable performance and scalability. By deploying Silver Peak's VX family of appliances on industry standard servers, enterprises reap all the cost and flexibility benefits of virtualization.
Silver Peak's VRX appliances are virtual WAN optimization devices designed specifically for data center deployment. They deliver the highest end-to-end throughput and simultaneous sessions of any virtual WAN optimization device and are proven compatible with all leading storage solutions and data center switching devices.
The VX-X is a free, fully functional entry level virtual appliance. It is an easy and cost effective way for getting started with WAN optimization, or for deployment of Silver Peak in small point-to-point networks.

Question about Goodman GMS90703BXA Heater
Posted by Jim Matthews on
my valcun ducted heater is not working although the fan is going and checked the power switch is on. what could be the problem
This furnace has a diagnostic light on the control board found in the lower section of the furnace. Pilots are a thing of the past and your system has a glow ignitor. Look thru a small viewing port to see how many blinks are being displayed. Then remove the access panel and on the reverse side of it is a diagnostic chart that will tell you where to start looking. I would suggest you make sure the air filter is clean and that the condensation is being removed. Recycle the furnace with either the breaker or emergency switch. You can cycle the furnace with the front cover off if you tape the door switch closed. It may be easier to view the sequence of operation to pick up on where the fault is occuring.

Apple Invites Media To September 9 Event
August 28th, 2015 | by Kevin James Krotz
'Hey Siri, Give Us A Hint'
Almost like clockwork, Apple has once again invited media to a September event. The company sent out invitations on Thursday with the tagline: "Hey Siri, give us a hint."
The invitation, as seen above, is for Apple's annual late-Summer iPhone-centric event. According to rumors, the event is expected to see the debut of the newest iPhones, the iPhone 6s and the iPhone 6s Plus. Each of the new models are rumored to include a reinforced casing, Force Touch, an A9 processor, 2GB of RAM, and an improved camera.
More Than Just The iPhone
Other rumors have said that Apple will be talking about the next-generation of Apple TV, which will be the set-top box's first major update in the past few years. Reportedly, the new box will have a redesigned look alongside an A8 processor, a touch-based remote, and more storage space for access to the App Store.
Likely, there will also be an update to the launch dates of iOS 9 and watchOS 2.
The September 9 iPhone Event will begin at 10 AM PST and will be live streamed on the web for Mac, PC, iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV users.

text: uLust is the newest dating site to come out, with tons of members and a nice and sleek design this one is sure to go far. Checking it out I did the usual, I signed up first as a free member and surfed around a bit. Running this site it's always one of my main things to find how many members it has so I can rank it among the biggest dating sites. This one comes in pretty high with over four million profiles. Since it's still pretty new, you want to make sure you really search your area. When I searched mine I found tons of girls so I went ahead and paid for the membership. I was expecting to be let down but sure enough the experience was good after paying. I went in and searched and started messaging left and right hoping to get a bite. At first I though it was doing no good but after a little while I got a couple of messages back. I still haven't met anyone off of it but I talk to one girl online regularly that I met on this site, and that's why I keep it up high as featured. Check out uLust by clicking here or click below.

One of our favorite things here at The Farmhouse are our diverse selection of chickens. We enjoy quite a few different varieties, which makes for a unique opportunity for the public when we make presentations in the local community. Many people have never seen such a friendly flock and did not realize the diversity that is represented in Gallus domesticus!
We have practical chicken types who lay eggs - Barred Rocks and Orpingtons. We have chickens that lay colored eggs - Americaunas and French Copper Marans. We have small bantam cochins and we have Polish chickens, which are predominently ornamental breeds. By far the most popular of all our chickens are the small, fuzzy Silkies which are ideal as pets.
All these different personalities, colors and shapes have become quite the inspiration to my children in photography and painting. Here is an award winning piece of art work from my oldest daughter Lydia. A seven year old's colorful appreciation of our backyard birds!

This blog was written by guest blogger Melody Potratz, as part of our First Year Music Teacher Series. Ms. Potratz is in her first year of teaching middle school choir at River City Middle School in Post Falls, Idaho.
The Third Quarter Exhaustion Kicks In
We're two weeks away from the end of the third quarter (what?!) and I am completely exhausted. Why is this time of year so hard? I'm tired all the time, my caffeine consumption has skyrocketed, and as time passes, I understand more and more the true meaning of the expression "working for the weekend." It has been a fascinating journey to the discovery of just how much time of year, moon cycles, and anticipation of holidays and breaks have an effect on behavior. I admit that I stuck up my nose at all this business about the full moon, but I don't have any other logical explanation for the consistent chaos around that time and I humbly accept that there will always be surprises.
Not all the surprises have been bad. This quarter, I have learned that it pays off to lay a good foundation for vocal technique and music theory. I am astounded by the quick pace at which my students are learning new music and I am having to think of new activities to keep them engaged in learning. My sixth graders, who couldn't read music and struggled to sing simple rounds in September, are currently singing a song in three parts! The moral of the story: teaching technique and theory to beginners is stressful and frustrating but so worth it.
Participating in My First ACDA Panel
I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to attend this year's conference in Seattle, Washington for the Northwest division of the American Choral Directors Association and honored to have been asked to present. I, along with four other choir directors from around the Northwest, each at various stages (but still early stages) of our careers, served on a panel to answer questions and give advice to future teachers for a successful first year. The crowd was small as it was bright and early on Sunday morning, but every person on the panel made such valuable contributions and I was relieved to discover that most of them had thoughts and experiences similar to mine.

I have attended a handful of ACDA conferences over the last few years and my favorite part has always been the reading sessions. I love to discover new choir music and, well, I just love to sing. This time around, it occurred to me as I was getting a bit misty-eyed during a reading session that I have not been feeding myself. The to-do list seems never ending: lesson plans, grades, find a new accompanist, order music, professional development, staff meeting, conferences, workout group, oil change, laundry, EAT, SLEEP, etc. I am beginning to understand that my to-do list will never completely disappear and I need to make time to feed my own soul. I am certain that I am not alone in this, so can we all agree to take care of ourselves? Hopefully I will have joined a choir by the next time you hear from me. Happy fourth quarter, friends!

I love anything wrapped in carbs. Honestly I would eat an entire loaf of bread in one sitting if I could and didn't leave me feeling crappy and 10 pounds heavier.
So I'm a big fan of having the opportunity to have something wrapped in a pita or flatbread. So insert Greek inspired dinner. I often make this with chicken… but then found lamb meatballs at the grocery store… so…why not?!
Makes 3-4 pitas
12 Lamb meatballs (premade – homemade or store bought
4 flatbreads or pitas
Greek Salad:
-4 ripe tomatoes, diced
-1/4 cup minced red onions
-1 English cucumber, diced
– 4-5 Kalamata olives, minced (or garlic stuffed olives)
– 1/2 cup cubed feta cheese
-2 tbsp EVOO
-2 tbsp of balsamic or red wine vinegar
-salt and pepper
Tzatiki Sauce:
-1/2 cup plain yogurt
-juice 1/2 lemon
-2 tbsp chopped dill
-dash of garlic powder to taste
-salt & pepper
Chop and mix all of the ingredients for Greek salad in a large bowl and set aside.
Combine all ingredients for tzatiki sauce and set aside.
Cook meatballs to medium (or your favourite doneness). Let cool slightly and cut into quarters.
Combine all ingredients on pita or flatbread, wrap & enjoy!

Research projects
Cost-aware business process management
Project ID: DP12010101624
The project aims to inform the field of business process management (BPM) with the latest insights from the field of management accounting in order to make BPM systems cost-aware. By incorporating the cost dimension in BPM systems, organisations can obtain a more accurate and immediate overview of the true cost of their processes, make cost-informed decisions, and use this as a basis for dynamic process improvement. The project will use sound theoretical foundations and empirical evaluations to deliver techniques, tools and practices for managing cost aspects of business processes. These outcomes will have broad applicability and uptake in a wide range of industries.

Bringing the Social into the Accounting Curriculum
Integrating a Sociological Approach into Learning and Teaching Accounting
The role of accounting in the financial and economic controversies of recent times highlights an urgent need for educative reform, specifically to address the social and ethical relevance of accounting curriculum. The approach to curriculum renewal adopted in this project is centred on an aspiration to 'teach to the future', looking beyond the limitations of traditional narrow disciplinary boundaries to improve the quality of accounting education. This will be achieved by drawing on critical-sociological concepts to support the development of a curriculum that integrates critical reflection and transformative learning and teaching. The distinctive approach in this project will involve the use of research activities (content and critical analysis, interviews, focus groups) to develop a scaffolded framework for the integration of sociological concepts and analytical approaches into the accounting curriculum, with reference to, and relevance for, International Accounting Education Standards.

The best from the world of travel blogs and blogging
Welcome to another World First Wander, our weekly look at what's hot in the world of travel blogging and writing. As always it's compiled by Tristan Rothwell, the man who scours the internet for the very best travel related stuff so you don't have to.
It's been another great week in travel and travel writing and it's been more difficult than ever to narrow down our favourites. We start this week's adventure with the weekend. They fly by don't they? I bet you're sitting at your desk now thinking "where did that go?" Am I right?
So we might need a bit of help to make our weekends last that little bit longer. But where to start? Let's go over to Life Hacker then, with this post on 10 ways to make your weekends last longer.
What to do with your weekend time?
There are a hardy few of the team here who can often be found out in the wilds of a weekend. MD Martin is one of them with regular trips to his beloved Woodbury Common. Personally I like to head to Dartmoor, so I loved this next post about backpacking in beautiful Belstone. Have a read of Dartmoor Tramping (part One).
Getting down and dirty
This next blog is interesting because it not only ties in nicely with being on Dartmoor (see above) and coming home filthy covered in mud, but also resonates with the parents in the office. We often end up discussing how dirty our children got this past weekend and what mischief they got up to !
It's not travel related but it's a topic that is close to our hearts. If we instil a sense of adventure in our children then, who knows, they may turn out to be the great adventurers of tomorrow. Have a read of Dirt is good and then take the kids outside and have a roll round in the mud.
Taking the adventure a bit further…
Quite a bit further actually, with some long distance backpacking and hiking along the UK's longest trails. It's something we know many of you love to do as we get lots of enquiries about backpacking travel insurance from all types of walkers, hikers and backpackers. So if you are thinking of walking that bit further next time, this next post may keep you motivated. It's from The Next Challenge blog – Could you walk the length of every national trail in the UK ?
For those who prefer pedal power
If all this walking is not your cup of tea then maybe you'll prefer two wheels. And that's what our next blog is about… sort of. It's all about staying on two wheels while on a two wheeled touring holiday. After all, disasters like running out of tea can and do happen… If you are thinking of a cycling holiday or tour this year then you will want a repair kit with all the right tools and the next post, an in depth post from Tom Allen, has it all. The Ultimate Fix-anything Cycle touring toolkit.
If you like your adventure served cold
The first thing that caught our eye about this post was the statement "My current employer just sent me to Norway to chase the northern lights", so, in the vague hope that our boss will do the same, we are including this next post from Love Life Go Travel. It's not the only reason. We loved the way it is written and made us smile and, for us that's what travel is all about. From dried haddock crisps before a date to tying up a Viking with gaffer tape, it sounds like an amazing trip (note to Boss, I am happy to go on a trip like this in the name of work).
Have a read of an arctic adventure in Norway.
Really getting away from it all
While technology is a wonder of the modern age, helping us to stay connected with friends family and loved ones, it can also be a curse. Sometimes it seems we have become so reliant on technology that we can't just actually look at a view and enjoy it. No, we have to take a selfie and share it with everyone we know!
Does that trouble you? Read this from camping with style. How to have a tech free family camping holiday.
That's it for this week. Hopefully there has been something here to get you inspired to go on an adventure and maybe even do it tech free, or maybe go out and tie up a Viking with gaffer tape.
Until next week.

Manchester is to be the location for the latest Vision Care for Homeless People clinic, with the opening due to take place early in 2014.
Contracts have been signed with the Cornerstone Day Centre, in Denmark Road, close to the heart of the city, with a dedicated room for optometry. The largest venue of its type in Manchester, it has a footfall of at least 100 people a day. As the charity managing director, Harinder Paul explained –
"We work closely with other homeless charities and have known for some time that there is a need for our service in the north-west and we are delighted to be able to proceed, thanks to the generosity of our wonderful sponsors. The trustees at Cornerstone have been most welcoming," he said.
Funding for three years has been generously donated by Optometry Giving Sight – their major sponsorship project which celebrates ten years of OGS and VCHP. Optical equipment and glazing has been pledged by several optical companies – Optix software to run the administration and records of the clinic, Caledonian Optical to provide glazing and lenses, Carleton Optical to supply the diagnostic equipment, Specsavers for frames and equipment, and a digital test chart donated by Thomson software.
As well as professional staff being needed each week, a volunteer optometrist or dispensing optician manager is sought to oversee the running of the clinic –
"This is a very rewarding role and takes about an hour of work a week, to ensure that the staff and co-ordinated and supplies in order. The good thing is that the volunteer manager can pretty much select their own times of working too," added Harinder.
