Spring has Sprung!
The birds are chirping; the flowers are blooming, there's a different scent in the air. Nature is calling. Even the time change beckons to us, "SPRING FORWARD!"
Spring is a time of birth, growth, renewal, and regeneration. It's a full-sensory reminder that everything all around us is always changing. And so are we.
Answer the call…
- How can you more fully express yourself?
- What fires need rekindling?
- What do you want to take on?
- What ideas are ready to be birthed?
- What projects have been lying dormant?
- What spirit in you is awakening?
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined." –Heny David Thoreau
As you hear the birds, smell the flowers, feel the breeze, and experience the beauty of Spring, remember to let your light shine.

Considerations to Take Before hiring an Air Duct Cleaning Service
Air Ducts is an essential component of our home, they are the passageways that deliver, facilitate or remove air to and from within our interiors. Without air ducts, warm air from our heater and cold air from our air conditioning would not spread out too hard to reach places of our house.
There comes a time though, that our air ducts become problematic because of several reasons. When this unfortunate time comes, we have to call for professional help and service, we need to hire an air duct cleaning contractor. Hiring the service of a company would certainly involve money, and we don't want to waste it, so we have to plan accordingly. To help you, here is a list of considerations to take before hiring an air duct cleaning service.
- Do You Really Need the Service?
When you feel that the air is stuffy, or that the cold or warm air does not distribute as effectively around your house, you should not pin the problem immediately to your air ducts. The problem may be because of the heater or air conditioning itself, or just simply because your house needs a little bit more cleaning.
The signs that should prompt you to hire an air duct cleaning service is when it becomes infested with pests like rats, or if mold and mildew have taken over it. Authorities also suggest that air duct only needs cleaning once for about three or five years.
- Hire a Licensed Professional
When you have enough reason to believe that your air duct needs some cleaning, then you better make the right decision of hiring a licensed professional. When you hire someone who is licensed, you are guaranteed that you will be provided with quality work, because a company's skill and capabilities are tested before they can acquire a license.
Another advantage of hiring a licensed professional is that you are assured that the identity's of the worker in the company is checked and they don't have any criminal records. It also means that the equipment and methods of the company are checked, and it has passed safety regulations.
- Have a Good Reputation
Another consideration you have to take before hiring a company is if they have a good reputation. A company earns a good reputation by consistently giving quality service to their clients. To know the reputation of a company, you can search their name on the internet and read their reviews and ratings. Another method you can try is by obtaining a list of their past clients; call those people, and inquire about the quality of work and their attitude towards working.
- Fair Pricing
Another important consideration in hiring a service company is their pricing. To know if they are fair in dealing with this, ask them for a cost estimate on the very beginning of your transaction. A cost estimate contains a minimum and maximum amount that you are liable to pay. If you don't ask for this, there is a chance that the company will take advantage of you, and will charge you with a fee that higher than the actual service they have rendered.
Benefits of Storm Shelters
It is a common information that storm shelters save lives. The weatherman would instruct people to go to a storm shelter for the best safety possibility whether a serious storm is developing, like a tornado. Even though this is the major advantage of a storm shelter, storm shelters around or in your house could provide even more advantages. Read this article if you are considering buying a storm shelter in OKC or just do not know if they are essential. Someday, it might save your life.
- Time
Time is one benefit of having a storm shelter in your area or down the street. You could run to a storm shelter and take cover when the storm is approaching. You will have to take your family with to ensure they are all safe. But, having a storm shelter in your house, the entire family would be safe inside it without having to travel.
Travelling to a storm shelter also might not be possible given that almost every storm is accompanied by very high rain and winds. Rain could not make it possible to see where you are going.
- Fit your Whole Family
Storm shelters come in various types and sizes to accommodate every unique need. For instance, the sizes are versatile enough to fit a number of individuals. You will be able to accommodate your whole family in the safe room or storm shelter. You might not be able to stick as a family together if you are going to a public storm shelter. These shelters might get full and several family members might have to find another shelter.
Also, storm shelters offer a simple answer in cases where you might be away from house and your children need to take cover. It is a simple option to have them just get into a storm shelter in the garage, for instance, than to go to a public shelter down the road. This provides you peace of mind knowing that your family is protected even if you are not with them.
- Shelters for Pets
Keep in mind that your pets would require a safe place during storms when wishing a storm shelter to be installed. One of the greatest methods to get your pet come down during a storm is to take them to an area where there is less noise and you could play some calming music instead. If you have your own storm shelter, you could play with your pets and distract them to what is going on outside.
- Protect your Valuables
Serious storms are identified to wreak havoc and flatten homes in their path. This causes indescribable amounts of loss. A lot of times, the most valuable stuff to us gets wiped away. This is a great reason to have a storm shelter – to protect valuable items and memories of your family, even if it is a jewelry, painting, or picture. A storm shelter installed in your house could help prevent loss and protect all these valuable items.
Tips When You Run With Your Dogs
It is only natural that you want to include your dog when your exercise as a dog lover. As a physical activity, many people enjoy running. You can probably include your dog whether you wish to start running or already running.
It is true that running can be a great form of exercise for certain dogs and people but you must do it right if you are not yet accustomed to running, you can at least start slowly in your home. You can also buy equipment from credible companies such as fitness equipment Allentown to aid in your running routine and gets you prepared for outdoor running.
No Puppies
Running for exercise is not healthy for growing puppies while it is certainly safe to let your puppy roam around and play in short spurts. The stress and fatigue brought on by any kind of distance running can lead to injury because the bones of your puppy are still growing.
Between ages 9 to 12 months, most dogs will be able to start running. However, bigger dog breeds are more likely to mature slower compared to the smaller ones. To start running with you, ask your veterinarian when your puppy is mature enough.
Consult Your Veterinarian
It is important to communicate with your veterinarian before starting a new exercise program for your dog no matter the age of your dog. Your veterinarian will be able to determine minor health issues before they worsen due to running.
Until the health problems become more severe, keep in mind that your dog may not show up any signs of illness. Have a veterinarian clear him first for running and do your friend a favor.
Know Your Dog
Not all dogs are suitable for running. On a walk where he can explore the world with his nose, your dog might be happier. Some dogs are not able to withstand the physical exertion of running or they do not have the endurance for anything more than running short distances and many dogs are also sensitive to heat.
It is not advisable that you run with it if your dog has short muzzle such as pugs or bulldogs. Even on cooler temperatures, they will easily overheat on a run because these dogs simply cannot cool themselves properly.
Train and Socialize Your Dog
Make sure your dog is well trained before running. During a walk, your dog must be able to properly behave and be able to walk on a loose leash. It is also essential that your dog knows basic commands as well. Before running, ensure that your dogs are well socialized.
Start Slowly
The day to go distance must not be the first day. Watching the reaction of your dog to the exercise increase, start with about 10 minutes at a slow and moderate pace, this will ensure that your dog will not be exhausted.
Bring Plenty of Water
While running, ensure that your dog has access to plenty of cool and fresh water. Run in a public area where water is available for both humans and dogs if you cannot bring water with you while running

Major Decorated Initials
The major decorated initials of illuminated manuscripts serve both practical and theological purposes. In Christianity, Christ is the Word incarnate. In the bible, the Will of God is made manifest through His pronouncements:-
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Genesis 1:3:
" the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other side were they written. And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables." Exodus 32: 15-16
In writing a sacred text, you become the instrument of God. The decorated initials celebrate the mystery of the Word made flesh.
"...they form a sequential meditation upon the nature of Christ as variously conveyed by each of the Gospels...and its encapsulation of the complementary aspects of Christ's divinity and incarnation."
The Lindisfarne Gospels, Society, Spirituality and the Scribe, Dr M.P. Brown
The main function of these initials, though, is to clarify the sense of the text and mark out the beginning of a new book or section, or an important passage. They may also serve as an aide-mémoire. The early manuscripts of the British Isles took the decoration of these initials to a new level of intricacy.

The underlying grid and horizontal lines derive from the lines of text that are on the other side of the folio. These can just be seen showing through in the picture on the left. Some of the curved lines would probably have been drawn in by eye.
The XPI monogram consists of major decorated initials. The smaller, but nonetheless decorative, letters below this are display capitals. The red, half-uncial letters at the head of the page are known as rubrics. NEXT (Decorated Initials)

PermalinkYale Guen Mar, come down to earth. You have very many pressing issues, especially with your hemorrhoid-scarred asshole.
Raw Message
Yale Guen Mar, your sphincter muscles have been gone for good. What are your plans? While away in diapers twirling your thumbs? Or are you going to be proactively looking for a cure?
To set the record straight, Yale Guen Mar is still alive in Merced, CA but he has just lived through a near-death experience after an enraged Ms. Lee of the Merced Community Food Market shoved an opo squash up Yale Guen Mar's asshole.
While Yale Guen Mar's successful surgery to extricate the opo squash from his asshole is a testimony to advances in medical science, it has cast a doom on Yale Guen Mar's Hmong neighbors who have been praying for a long time for the permanent departure of Yale Guen Mar from the area.
In fact, Yale Guen Mar's Hmong neighbors will gladly finance Yale Guen Mar's trip to Cambodia for alternate medical treatment if Yale Guen Mar is willing to pledge that he won't ever come back to Merced.
Meichi Thai has kept the Hmong neighbors apprised of Yale Guen Mar's travails following the surgery to extricate the opo squash that had got lodged inside Yale Guen Mar's asshole when an enraged Ms. Lee of the Merced Community Food Market assaulted Yale Guen Mar for farting inside the grocery store.
But it looks like Yale Guen Mar's sphincter muscle is now beyond redemption. Yale Guen Mar wants a sphincter muscle transplant to regain control over his asshole. Doctors are looking for possible donors in Merced's piggeries.
In the meantime, as a temporary fix, the doctors have suggested use of corks in Yale Guen Mar's asshole to stem continuous outflow of stool. Resty's caregiver, Meichi Thai, has been inserting corks into Yale Guen Mar's asshole to stem the flow.
Meichi Thai, apprising the Hmong neighbors on Twlight Avenue, lamented that it was indeed a very messy situation inside 3851 Twilight Avenue in Merced, CA. She dreads every time she has to uncork Yale Guen Mar's asshole to release the shit inside him.
Yale Guen Mar, you have far more immediate and far more graver issues to attend to to be wasting your time thinking ill of others.
The latest calamity to befall you is your loss of use of your sphincter muscle following the assault on you by Ms. Lee with an opo squash inside the Merced Community Food Market.
Yes, doctors may try to transplant a sphincter muscle of a pig on to your asshole to give you a modicum of control over your ability to shit normally. But you'll be better off accepting the generous offer of your Hmong neighbors. They want you you to travel ASAP to your physician, Dr. Dong, in Cambodia for alternate medical treatment of your ailment. Your Hmong neighbors have voted to finance your trip to Cambodia provided you agree never to come back to Merced or even to USA.
So, Yale Guen Mar, take advantage of the generous offer by your Hmong neighbors and move to Cambodia for good. That would also take care of your other problem - the court ordered restraining order on you never to be within 200 yards of Yue Chen Market of the Miaos.
Yale Guen Mar, I think it is as apt as it is momentous that Mr. Miao of Yue Cheng Market has obtained restraining order against you. Don't be within 200 yards of Yue Cheng Market unless you want to spend the rest of your life inside a psychiatric ward to keep your mental illness under control.
Merced Sun-Star
February 12, 2015
Old man walks into a Merced grocery store and poops several times before calmly walking out
"Employees didn't know what on earth had just happened," witness says. "The stench was unreal."
MERCED, CA, February 12 (AP) -- Yue Chung Market, a local grocery store in Merced was closed temporarily after a 77 year old man from the neighborhood strolled in wearing shorts and flip-flops around lunchtime on Thursday and deposited multiple poops on the floor.
The "customer" apparently wasn't interested in shopping when he walked into the grocery store in Merced around lunchtime on Thursday.
Owner Cheng Miao saw the determined dumper.
"He didn't say anything at all, but you could tell from his face he looked angry," Miao said. "I wasn't really paying attention until I noticed a foul, but unmistakable smell. I looked at the old geezer and he was just calmly walking around the grocery store -- going through all the aisles he could."
The man also purposefully pooped at the entrance of the grocery shop.
"It's quite clear what the old man was doing -- he just had this calm but angry look on his face, as he walked around leaving special deposits on the floor," Miao said. "And then as calmly as he walked in. he left. Grocery shop employees didn't know what on earth had just happened. The stench was unreal."
The grocery shop closed down while employees cleaned up the mess.
"The old geezer lives within a stone's throw of the grocery store. I have no idea why he covered the grocery store in excrement, but he didn't look ill - he just looked a bit smug as he walked out," Miao said.
Merced county's health office has taken note of the incident. The old man will be remanded for psychiatric evaluation.

Tennessee vacation rentals are a surprisingly affordable way to enjoy the beauty of East Tennessee in comfort and style. They're great for family vacations, romantic getaways, and group outings. Rentals of various sorts are available throughout the region, often in some of the loveliest areas where other lodging options are scarce.
The main problem you'll have is choosing. There are so many companies offering vacation rentals in Tennessee, and so many beautiful and fun places to explore, it can make your head spin. So let's take a look at some of the options to help you sort things out.
The first thing to decide is where you want to go, so let's take a look at your best choices.
The Smoky Mountains are without a doubt the most popular destination with the widest variety of vacation rentals in Tennessee. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a major attraction. With its misty vistas, abundant wildlife, and numerous mountain streams the park rejuvenates the mind and refreshes the spirit. You can enjoy a variety of recreational activities, take part in a ranger led program, or just spend some time sight-seeing.
The resort towns in the Smokies offer even more options for fun and relaxation. There are outlet malls and specialty shops, amusement parks, games and diversions, musical theater, golf, and local arts and crafts.
The question is, where in the Smokies do you want to stay? Take a look at our suggestions here:
Where to Find Great Smoky Mountain Rentals
Smoky Mountain Cabins in Wears Valley and Townsend
Gatlinburg Vacation Rentals
Pigeon Forge Cabins
Norris Lake is a popular vacation destination just a short drive north of Knoxville. With some 800 miles of shoreline, over 20 marinas, 3 state parks, 59 public access sites, and 2 wildlife areas, Norris Lake offers plenty of recreational possibilities.
The lake is particularly noted for its clear, deep water, making it ideal for water sports, such as boating, skiing, and fishing. You can rent a variety of water craft, including houseboats, waverunners, pontoon boats, fishing boats, ski boats, canoes, and paddleboats. There are also plenty of places for hiking, golfing, swimming, biking, horseback riding, and hunting. Resorts and cabin rentals are plentiful here. You can even rent a cabin at 2 of the state parks in the area, Norris Dam State Park, and Big Ridge State Park.
The Big South Fork is a great place to get away from civilization. Located on the rugged Cumberland Plateau, the area is best known for its unique rock formations and wild rivers. Horses are everywhere up here, and you can even rent a cabin with horse stables. You'll find plenty of wonderful spots for hiking, white water rafting, mountain biking, fishing and hunting.
A variety of private cabin rentals are available in the areas around the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area, though none are available in the park itself. You can also rent a cabin at adjacent Pickett State Park, which boasts some outstanding rock formations.
Roan Mountain is absolutely lovely in late June, when the rhododendron balds bloom in a sea of pink. But, really, these mountain balds are awe-inspiring even without the extra adornment. the flowers only add to the beauty of these high mountain balds. You're up at some 6,000 feet here, so the air is crisp and cool in the summer, even when it's sweltering at lower elevations. It's the perfect place to rent a cabin to get away from it all and beat the heat. Or come in spring for the wildflowers, fall for the color, or winter for sledding and cross country skiing.
Watts Bar Lake has long been a popular fishing spot, but it's rapidly becoming a vacation destination as well. Boating, skiing, swimming and hiking are popular activities. You can rent a boat at one of the many marinas; pontoon boats, houseboats, and jet skis are available. The lake is also a great place for birdwatching, with large populations of blue heron, over 120 nesting pairs of osprey, and the occasional bald eagle. And, of course, there's always just relaxing and enjoying the beauty of the lake.
Watts Bar Lake is located on the Tennessee River, between Knoxville and Chattanooga. It extends over 72 miles from Fort Loudoun Dam to Watts Bar Dam, with 738 miles of shoreline, with numerous coves and sandy beaches.

Korbel Champagne Cellars
You might picture driving into this cool, shaded canyon of redwoods during a sweltering, blue-sky summer day. Although this is just one part of the Russian River Valley, as a viticultural appellation, when locals talk about knocking off work early to cool off at "the river," this is where we mean. And Korbel Champagne Cellars surely sees the most visitors in peak season. But when do locals pour into this old favorite, according to my tour guide? It's kind of a rainy day thing.
Another thing you might picture is arriving here by train, leaving the driving to the smoke-belching iron horse. Indeed, the small visitor center, where free tours begin, was Korbel's own station on the San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad. The fine-grained, old-growth redwood inside the station is original, I learn during a leisurely, informative chat with the station's clerk while waiting for the noon tour (it's a clear, bright winter day, so the tour group consists of me).
Now I'm picturing the absence of the dark, misty forest that surrounds Korbel's bend in the river—there's a reason that Guerneville used to be called Stumptown. The Korbel brothers ran a sawmill where the parking lot is today, before planting grapevines in between the massive stumps in the 1870s. Those weren't removed until the 1960s, when the crew of the TV show Combat! blew them up in return for the use of a location that made a convincing Ardennes.
Need help picturing more? Last year, Korbel added a brand-new documentary to their free tour and tasting experience. It's a fun little flick, screened in a theater comfortably outfitted with oak benches, full of "did you know" details: That it all started as a cigar box company? That Francis Korbel was a wild-eyed radical?
At last, the tasting room, a big, old-fashioned room where the product is chilled, bubbly, and priced within everyone's reach. To mark 130 years of producing all of it right here in Guerneville, the Korbel Anniversary Sec ($14) has the original-style label, and a refreshing spritz of crisp pear and kiwi.
The Blanc de Noirs ($11) contains a little Sangiovese and Zinfandel as well as Pinot Noir; but at this price, why not? A nutty and agreeable sparkler. Korbel also offers still wines like Pinot Noir and sweet Alsace-varietals "Edelzwicker." The top-tier wine is the light-bodied, ever so slightly yeasty 2005 Le Premier ($25). Easy to picture popping this by the fire at the end of a short, rainy day.
Korbel Champagne Cellars, 13250 River Road, Guerneville. Tasting Room open daily 10am-4:30pm; tours 11am–3pm. No fee. 707.824.7000.

This is for all of my clients! I can't do my job to protect you if you don't disclose all of your assets and all of your debts. This warning is not because of any thing that my clients have done, but rather because of recent court hearings for other debtors.
The bankruptcy code is very clear: it will protect honest debtors. One of the Trustees likes to say this is "Show and Tell" not "Hide and Go Seek." This means that you need to list all of your property. If you have told us about it, it should be on the forms, but you are the best eyes for your case. So make sure that we have every thing listed! This is why we spend 2 to 3 hours reviewing your schedules with you before they are filed. We want you to know what is on them. We often even send you home with draft copies to mark up and bring back. If you have a $5 gold coin we are not going to know about it but you will. The Trustee or the Trustee's attorney will look you straight in the eyes and ask if you have listed all of your property and all of your debts at the meeting of creditors (also call the 341 meeting). We want you to be able to say YES, I have listed all of my property and all of my debts. I also have listed all of the transfers requested.
Most people are honest. Sometimes you have forgotten to list something. The sooner you tell us that something is missing the better it is for you. If your creditors or your neighbors call the trustees' office and report that you are hiding property or not listing all of your creditors and the Trustee discovers that it is true ... then your problems could turn into a criminal matter. The FBI investigates bankruptcy crimes. I don't think that anyone wants the FBI knocking on their door.
Some one knows your secrets and they will tell someone. I will give you a few examples of things not to do. A debtor in Alaska, put $10,000 worth of diamonds in a coffee can and buried it. Was it listed on their bankruptcy schedules? NO. Do you think someone like that should go to prison. Your answer is likely yes. An couple in south Missouri filled a semi-trailer with antiques and buried it in a pasture. These are extreme examples but they really make the point. Don't hide your property and list it all!
On the other hand, we don't need to list the box of toothpicks by itself. Instead, it would be in a general catergory. We will have have some general categories. For example, small or minor appliances. This covers vacuums, toothbrushes, shavers, and blow dryers and the like. We also group cookware rather than count each pan. But we have have everything thing on your schedules that we know about. The schedule must continue all property you know about.
As I tell everyone at the intake appointment. In order to keep your property, you must list it and the law must allow you to exempt it. If it can't be exempted then we must make a deal to buy it back or have it go to sell. In Chapter 7 cases, the Trustees determine when, where, and how it property is sold. In Chapter 13, the Debtor has more control. Either way the Judge has the final say on the disposion of any property.
So I am begging you to read your schedules and let us know if we need to make any changes. I love that you tell me that you trust us but this is not a matter of trusting us it is double checking to ensure that we have done the best job possible for you.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 23376
PPC FADS port
Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:30:32 EDT
FADS port is getting very old, and it never had stubs implemented.
Needs an overhaul, but the only FADS board we have access to is
short of the JTAG'ish board control, so it's effectively dead.
eCosCentric has a FADS board with OCDemon interface on loan currently.

Breadcrumb POS Reviews Recently Reviewed!
Servers go down on the worst possible moments
Likely Extremely
Comments: I've had Breadcrumb for 3 years now at my restaurant. The first two years it was adequate, easy to use and more or less stable in spite of a few server outages here and there. However, the back-end was pretty cumbersome, full of dead ends and potholes that could easily be fixed with a tiny bit of coding. For instance, if you want to edit a menu item, but while editing you choose to add the item to a new display group, the page changes and does not save your edits to date. Also, you can never delete a menu item. You can archive, but not in batches, so it takes forever. But whatever, overall good enough to not have to go through the hassle of switching to a new pos system. Since Breadcrumb has been acquired by Upserve last year, it's been a gradual downhill slide to stupidity. The first few months it seemed all they cared about was to convert their new Breadcrumb customers to Upserve products -- things we just do not need -- instead of focusing hard and quick on improving the new system they were in charge of. Since then, it has gotten worse. There have been server outages on busy Saturday nights, mandatory software updates -- on busy Saturday nights ... you get the picture. Uber frustrating. And frankly, there has been next to nothing done to improve the software use, or extend features. It seems as if Upserve is not capable of handling the new transition, and I am done complaining to them about functionality. The support team is nice and sympathetic, but they have no power to make the changes we need. We will be moving on to TouchBistro in the coming month. I would not get involved with this POS, it seems to be on a downward slope to obsolescence.
Pros: Simple, easy to set up Clear POS layout
Cons: Bad server uptime Inconsiderate management of maintenance schedules such as software upgrades Limited front end and back end features
Very intuitive design. Very helpful when managing multiple establishments.
Pros: Having trained lots of people to use it, everyone seems really impressed with how 'easy' it is to learn. I like that there are several ways to do almost anything. Also, on the admin side, the reporting is fantastic. I love being able to edit items and check reports for multiple locations in real time, from anywhere.
Cons: I only have a few real complaints. First it would be very helpful to transfer tabs in bulk. In some locations there is a changeover that occurs everynight which is common going to back to old 'banger' days, where bartenders each had their own drawer. Breadcrumb does not make this very easy as each tab has to be transferred one at a time and approved one at a time, small issue, but a bit of nuisance. Also, it would be helpful if modifiers could have more options, not just up a dollar or two / down a dollar or two, but include multipliers.
Great idea - but they cannot support
Comments: I have been trying for weeks to get breadcrumb to do anything about compensating us for our monetary losses, the hours invested in all of this, and not much has been done. The system is not that expensive overall, so I guess you get what you pay for. They are simply not ready for primetime.
Pros: This is actually a great product, with the platform that is more expensive than any other that I've seen without costing $ and being hardware focused.
Cons: We took on this product in October 2016, and it has gotten progressively worse since then. We trained and showed everyone how to have a system work, and now we are shopping for other options, as this system regularly fails in the middle of service creating mass chaos for all of my staff who have to deal with crash kits and do their best to continue service. The system has offered a serious hit to our staff morale.
Easy to use and set up
Likely Extremely
Pros: Great Remote access and seamless menu updates especially when added remotely. Items added or changed through our previous point of sale system would have required a two to three minute reboot for the changes to update. The system incorporates comprehensive and useful analytics through breadcrumb hq and upserve. Can see what items are selling/profitable on a customizable timeframe.
Cons: Times of full system updates. time frame. Than that I don't have any major concerns. Some of the hardware does lose its functionality over a short period of time ( ie: having to disconnect the casing to plug in an iPhone cable when the credit card sweeper stops charging the device from an android charger)
Overall: It takes money from people and puts it in my bank.
Mafia tactics. They hold your data over your head at a price.
Pros: Ease of Use. Classic POS setup, but best for a smaller operation. Modifying / Open Food Items / Adding menu items / updating menus can be quite tedious. A daily checkout report and the ability for my accountant to have direct access to the POS system is nice.
Cons: Business practices. Take it or leave it attitude. Practices that practically force you to use their credit card processing. Works out to a month extra hidden fees to use your own credit card processor. The outrageous monthly expense to add Grubhub/Seamless. The outrageous monthly expense for them to hold your data after you leave them. It's almost better for them to not have a customer and just collect fees a month.
Great product with few flaws
Likely Extremely
Pros: This software is great and the analytics are super powerful. It can tell you what sever's are performing best, new vs repeat customers based on credit card data etc. Definitely ahead of the curve technologically. It's efficient and incredibly stable. We are VERY happy customers.
Cons: The only two con's (I have) are that:
1) there's not a "No Sale" report for people opening the cash register without a sale.
2) If you are a bar where more than one person touches a tab, the employee performance analytics are useless as it assigns the sale to the person who opened/closed the tab (not the person adding items to it).
Overall: Awesome analytics, great reporting tools and easily compatible with other third party vendors.

by Upserve on April 26, 2018
Hi Lydia, thanks for taking the time to review Breadcrumb; We're glad you're enjoying the software, analytics, and stability of the platform! We're always trying to improve, so I appreciate your suggestions & I've passed them along to our product team. Thank you again!
I work for a CPA and my client uses Breadcrumb. It's one of the best POS systems that I deal with.
Likely Extremely
Pros: Reports are easy to run and understand.
Data can be exported to Excel for additional sorting/reporting.
Works very well for tracking deposits and applying them later (we use for events).
Cons: Client has had issues with dropped data on busy days - possible system overload?
I've caught a few transactions that didn't total correctly (throws off my numbers) but I'm not sure if this is a user error or system glitch.
Overall: I use Breadcrumb to gather manual data for entry to QuickBooks. It's easy to operate and run reports, accurate, flexible and my client's business has grown, Breadcrumb has met their needs. I handle an average of 7-10 breweries per month and this is one of my favorite POS systems.
Very user friendly
Likely Extremely
Pros: What I like about Breadcrumb is that it is very user friendly. I found that I was able to figure most things out on my own, without having to get support. However, when you do need support, the ability to chat with someone online is very useful!
Cons: I have no real complaints thus far. If I had to choose something, it would be that for a tasting menu we have not yet found the best way to set up the ringing in of the menu and being able to fire each course. We will be contacting support about this to see what can be done.
For the price and ease of use, I doubt Breadcrumb can be beat.
Pros: The front of house interface is incredibly easy to use, and the feedback from my servers has been the same. Back of house setup is also very easy, and reporting is adequate for a small business like mine. The price is also very good for what you get.
Overall: It's come a long way since Upserve acquired them. The customer service used to be really lacking, and there used to be a lot of service outages. There's been a huge improvement there. The new app is much better, but I'd like to see more information available on it.
Red Bird Review of Bread Crumb System
Likely Extremely
Pros: Super simple interface. I love that it is iOS based and items can be changed on the fly from any station. Also great reporting on the back end and I love that it includes a costing function.
Cons: That it apparently is not taking on any additional customers and appears to be going out of business. I was told the whole team had been let go and Groupon, their parent company, was closing up their shop. Also support could have been slightly more helpful and it would be nice to have better note functions. A scheduling function would be nice. Emailed individual daily sales to employees and the ability to account for tips that have been split between multiple employees, i.e. tipping out.
Recommendations to other buyers: Choose a product that can already accommodate all of your needs. Don't choose one based on price and try to jerry-rig it to get it to where you need. POS software should be very flexible and be capable of accommodating all of your changing needs.
it is a great pos, when it works
Likely Extremely
Pros: easy to setup and use, portable, can have as many stations as i need, can just add new ones when i need.
Cons: when offline you cannot use giftcards or type in cc #'s, also they do not have a hardwired terminal so if your internet goes it can be a pain in the butt. once you create an item you cannot delete it just have to archive it. when your creating items and you save it it auto puts you back at the beginning instead of the sub folder you were in
Breadcrumb is an excellent POS system and very friendly user
Likely Extremely
Comments: The good about Breadcrumb is that they are partners with your business, they will always try to improve the problems we find in the system.
Pros: Very easy interface and hardware setup, the final user learn fast on how to use it. The support team is always there when we need
Cons: Lack of user log and some safer control in the admin / management level, this can be a problem. The reports are not the best in the accounting point of view.
One of the Best
Likely Extremely
Pros: This Point of Sale system is one of the easiest ones I have used, almost zero training. The reporting is great.
Cons: I wish it did better with items. The ability to have sub items and remove from inventory better would be great.
Overall: The best benefits of this system is the amount of training. The vast amount of time that it takes to train both front of the house as well as back of the house is so minimal. Most POS systems require hours of training and errors that can be extremely frustrating. We installed this system and people just started working on it with zero training.
Overall a very good experience. The latest major update from 2 yrs ago fixed the majority of bugs.
Likely Extremely
Pros: Ease of use, fast data loading, export of data, product mix reports, sales reports, payroll functionality
Cons: Duplicate accounts created when importing daily sales ledger into QuickBooks, data loading sometimes defaults back to "All" when selecting items or roles, system sometimes crashes on rare occasions
Overall: An overall well functioning POS system
Our business is new to me. This POS program is easy to learn.
Pros: Customer support is good. Support staff is knowledgeable and the wait time is minimal. Everyone is very nice.
Cons: Printing lists under categories I've created are difficult. They aren't in lines in a neat order. Takes too many pages to print. Sometimes I want to review my menu entries by categories so I can update and/or edit.
Pros: User friendly and the ability for tech-support to put their thumb on the problem. Super simple to bounce out to QuickBooks. Easy to set up a menu .
Cons: Offline mode. Other than that there are not really many bad things to say about breadcrumb. I love you and I have it in all the restaurants and bars that we are.
Many years as a customer and overall very happy with the product.
Pros: I like the ability to make changes from anywhere and their ability to constantly update based on customer feedback unlike the archaic and expensive older POS systems.
Cons: The hardware doesn't always last as long as it should, the cc swipers, specifically. They either quit running cards or quit holding a charge.
Best choice ever! After using mny different platforms to perform day by day transactions.
Likely Extremely
Pros: Everything from how easy it is to use. The detais which it provides. The fact that anytume there is a problem that can not be solved by myself or one of the users you can call Breadcrumb support and immediately a customer support representative will make sure you can solve any issue that can not be solved by the user of the software. The fact that you can have any analysis needed! Everything!!
Cons: That I had not used it earlier. That sometimes when you want to create new sections it is not that easy to do on my own. That though is easier in time.
Overall: To spend more time with the other functions of running the restaurant.
Super easy interface and very intuitive with some major limitations.
Likely Extremely
Pros: Ease of use. Whenever I'm unsure about how to do something my first guess is usually correct as the UI is well designed. The customer service is usually very helpful for solving issues.
Cons: Some of the offline limitations. We have been told that if we go offline not due to Breadcrumb/Upserve that we are out money if a transaction goes missing. This is a SERIOUS issue that we did not know when we signed up and may be a reason for us to leave.
Overall: It allows me to run my bar!
We are a small restaurant that uses Breadcrumb for our POS. We have two terminals.
Likely Extremely
Pros: I think it is a great systems. For management, it is easy to program and change items. For staff, the program is as easy as using a smart phone. New hires get it with-in 2 or 3 days.
Cons: Sometime it goes offline and the printers don't work, but the benefit of offline mode makes up for that completely.
I use the Upserve App to have access to live sales information at any time.
Likely Extremely
Pros: It is live, so I know what is going on at any given moment in my restaurant. It provides information about labor, voids, and discounts, as well as comparisons to previous week or year. Very user friendly, easy viewing, and fast!
Cons: There is nothing that I don't like about the software itself. Sometimes it is difficult to get support on the phone immediately, and our credit card processing fee percentage is on the high side.
Overall: Live access to sales information.
great affordable point of sale system. good value.
Likely Extremely
Pros: ease of use. constant updates included with the membership. easy to replace hardware. easy to configure new hardware.
Cons: most issues I didnt like got fixed already, however if they could add more 3rd party integrations would be nice.
Overall: ease of use for our office and minimal training for the restaurant staff.

Hello Alex, Thanks so much for the review, and we're glad you're finding Breadcrumb to be a good value. We appreciate your feedback on third-party integrations as well; We're always on the lookout for more technology partners (in fact, we just added Resy). Here's a link to check out all of our new partners: https://upserve.com/marketplace/technology-partners/
Easy to use and train staff on and has most all of the functions we need.
Pros: That it is cloud based and I can use Upserve to get analytics from my phone on the go. Now that it has an offline mode, it is much more reliable as well.
Cons: There are still a few funky functions that either just don't exist or don't work properly, such as sharing items between people.
pretty okay
Pros: Simple and easy to use. cloud-based which is helpful because HQ is accessible from anywhere. seven more characters.
Cons: mid-service forced software updates, implementation team wasn't very helpful, still many features not available (however its much better now than it was 2 years ago)
We have used breadcrumb for almost five years. It has grown and improved drastically.
Likely Extremely
Pros: Offers most of the flexibility and capabilities of other pos with the addition of a far superior UI and in my opinion superior UX
Cons: Still catching up in some small respects like perfecting single item splits across multiple checks.
Overall: Quick, efficient, generally reliable.
Excellent POS
Likely Extremely
Pros: It is easy to use and train new empolyees - Very flexible in setting up the system. The support from Upserve is very responsive.
Cons: Reporting has improved, but could get better and isstill not very flexible. An improvement in this area would be beneficial.

by Upserve on June 28, 2018
Hi Pete, thank you for the terrific review! We're glad to hear that our program has been so convenient for you to train employees on. It is also great to hear that our support team has been so responsive and helpful to you! Thank you again for the great review!
We switched from Lavu to Breadcrumb a couple of months ago and it was the best thing we ever did.
Likely Extremely
Pros: The ease of use, and learning all the bells and whistles couldn't be easier. We are a taproom with no food, but plenty of options (pour size, beer and shot pairings, cocktails, wine, etc), and we had no troubles getting it installed, getting our employees up and running, etc. Running reports (labor, product mix, sales, etc) is a breeze. Easily my favorite after years of Aloha, Lavu, Toast, etc.
Cons: I can't really say I have had any negative experiences. Well, we had a special one day menu and when we implemented it, every single item on the menu had sales tax (previously were tax inclusive). But it could be user error on our part, as the person who made the menu was not too familiar with the program.
Overall: Streamlined reporting, a user-interface that allows us to operate with increased efficiency during peak times, and a customizable back end that we can easily tailor to suit the needs of a new business that needs constant change and evolution.
great system
Likely Extremely
Pros: how user friendly it is and easy to navigate through the entire process. how fast the credit cards are processed through the banks
Cons: the functions that are not allowed on the system for full service venues and that it is 100% wifi reliant
Amazing customer service, very user friendly and informative software
Pros: Upserve and all of their employees have been very helpful. From the transition of our credit card processing to walking us through the system and even on the accounting side. They have always been available and always come onsite to help me out instead of just passing me off through emails like other companies. They follow up after every interaction to make sure i got what i needed out of the meeting and to make sure everything is set. I have enjoyed everyone I have worked with through Upserve, and the app is amazing for a person who runs multiple locations like myself. I cant be in two places at once but this app makes me feel like I'm in the know all the time.
Cons: I haven't come across anything about the software that I didn't like. Any issues/questions that have come up have been solved almost immediately by the team.

by Upserve on May 03, 2018
Hello Sara, Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Upserve & Breadcrumb POS! Providing the best customer service in our industry is a top priority for us, so I'm glad you've found it so beneficial! Please continue reaching out if we can help with anything else!
Great team work in getting us setup from beginning to end
Likely Extremely
Pros: The software is intuitive and easy to configure. Changes are easy to make and instantaneous. Reporting is great. Especially automated nightly reporting and live reporting thru the app.
Cons: The software is stable but still has network outages every once in a while. Some could be local network, other could be BC servers. But still very stable overall
Overall: Scalable and easy management of my 3 restaurants. Great reporting and intuitive user interface for my employees. As long as you have a strong wifi network, this system is the best for your money
Easily the worst experience we've ever had with a tech platform in my 10 years of owning restaurants
Pros: The interface/GUI is easy to use, the back end user interface was easy to update. I'm struggling to come up with any other redeeming qualities of this software platform.
Cons: Every single other thing. Literally everything about this company from the upper management, to the sales department, to the customer service are borderline incompetent.
I have used other systems, and this is by far the best and easiest to use
Pros: Ease of change, online menu, easy to train, functionality, ability to suspend it in our off months. I could go on and on
Cons: Difficulty adding a modifier group to a modifier group.
Much Better Customer Service
Likely Extremely
Pros: The offline mode is key feature. We are in an area of the country that doesn't have the best ISP coverage so this feature alone has saved us thousands of dollars.
Cons: Currently none.
Overall: I've been a long time BreadCrumb user and since Upserve has taken over BreadCrumb, the support is significantly better. I can now call a 2:00am on a Saturday and get a live person.
Breadcrumb has been an essential part of making my new restaurant and bar a successful one!
Likely Extremely
Pros: The ease of use and the amount of data that actually matters is absolutely amazing. Being able to pull reports that helps me connect with my customers and understand my business on a granular level has helped me tremendously
Cons: There are a lot of features and nuances within the system. Because of this, getting the system configured and setup for my particular environment has taken some time. Once the system is in place correctly however, its well worth it.
So much better than other platforms!
Pros: Pretty intuitive, and information is organized well. I like that it isn't hard to figure out basic functionality, and when you do have a question the support articles are super helpful.
Cons: Working in offline mode can really put a damper on things, but that is few and far between. I also wish that the 86 function would automatically update and show on all screens, not just the home screen. Also, notifications of 86 items when you log in would be really nice.
Love It
Pros: Easy to use, almost zero training, and the reporting is great. The mobility options are fantastic, you can unplug them and use them in any spot in your establishment.
Cons: Like any other POS, there are certain things you wish it could do. The inability not to have sub items hurts.
Great product, helps save time and easy to have access to information
Likely Extremely
Pros: Having access to all my information at my finger tips. I can access sales from over 5 years ago and forecast sales
Cons: The only thing I do like least about upserve is that they charge but like all quality things in life you have to pay
Overall: most important benefit in life, saving time
Solid for cloud based POS. Offline mode still not where it should be.
Pros: Ease of use. Reporting through Breadcrumb and Upserve is excellent. Unsure what else but site is demanding more characters.
Cons: Grubhub integration still not functional. Customer support not always the best. Unsure what else but site is demanding more characters.
Good but it crashes
Likely Extremely
Pros: User friendly and customer support is great and very easy to work with. They always fix any issues I have
Cons: The system crashes a lot and is very buggy. The iPads aren't always reliable and they go offline frequently.
Overall: Very easy to set up and use.
Excellent UI and reporting, lacking some essential features
Likely Extremely
Pros: Very cheap subscription fees, incredibly competitive processing fees. Excellent UI and reporting interface.
Cons: Repeated connectivity issues lasting for about 30 seconds, makes us unable to send in orders and occasionally drops payments. Lacking some essential customization features that would suit my restaurant.
Overall: Better efficiencies in my restaurant, drastically reduced pricing all around.
Excellent, keeps things things streamlined and easy to access.
Pros: It's great. It keeps my management team on the ball at all time. I use it each day and I love it. I recommended this soft ware to anyone looking to improve their company.
Cons: Customer service could be better. In all honestly, it's great I just wish it were more accessible. Sometimes I find myself seeing errors in the content and don't know why.
Easiest POS
Pros: I've been in restaurants for 15 years and have always thought the POS is the most dreaded and difficult part of serving but I hopped and Breadcrumps with zero training and was able to figure it all out with ease.
Cons: The iPad systems can be very sensitive to the touch. I have to double check to make sure things weren't selected more than once.
Super easy install and use.
Pros: Very easy training and ease of use. Easy to program and customer support is on point. It's so easy to use most people can figure it out on their own.
Cons: Sometimes it's glitchy. It will crash mid-use. On occasion, there are company-wide issues. So far none have been mission critical.
Great system and customer service
Likely Extremely
Pros: Ease of use and customer service help. Have had only great experiences on both the phone and system with the representative.
Cons: Manager work on it is a bit cumbersome. Would suggest a more easy to use Manager page in the app. Upserve reports take a bit to load at night.
Friendly and easy to learn
Likely Extremely
Comments: Just a very friendly POS system, but lack some accounting reports.
Pros: Very fast in the front of the house operation and really easy to use. Easy to manage and take reports.
Cons: Not so good in the accounting report, but they are work with us to improve all the points we have problem nowadays.
Very user friendly
Likely Extremely
Pros: The system is very easy to navigate for servers and as a manager it is very user friendly. The Reports feature is invaluable.
Cons: The system is very easy to navigate for servers and as a manager it is very user friendly. The Reports feature is invaluable.
The install didn't go well. The programming didn't go well.
Likely Extremely
Pros: I like analytics. I like being able to see sales from my phone. I like being able to track payroll hours.
Cons: It doesn't seem built for a fast paced bar environment. Transferring of tabs is terrible - it doesn't give a total of what you are transferring and the process of transferring is tedious and takes a long time. Comp buttons are a multi step process and the features of comps are frankly clunky. There are other issues as well that take too many steps to complete. Visually you can't put in pictures so some bartenders find it difficult to find stuff as so they use the search button for everything.
Overall this is a great program to use.
Pros: I like the easy user ability. Anybody can use it, even people that aren't computer savvy. I like that we have a support team 24/7.
Cons: I hate that you have to go through each item entry to the beginning. It is just a bit time consuming is all.
Much easier for our staff to use than the competing system we had previously
Pros: Most features are intuitive for our staff to use. Prepopulating check names from a credit card swipe is huge since it makes them all uniform and saves bar staff significant time both having to enter them and then searching for however whomever put them in put them in
Cons: Some features and categories are overly complicated. Would prefer different packages streamlined for different business types. For example, we do not serve food nor do online ordering so all those options are just another opportunity for someone to enter information incorrectly
good software, terrible tech system
Likely Extremely
Pros: Software was good, tech support could be good or terrible depending on who you get on the call
Cons: Not getting to the proper tech support level, cleared via cs person first @ then wait for call back.
Recommendations to other buyers: Look else where since word had it that Breadcrumb is on their way out of business, already closed their on line store.
It's been really good having this system, and the staff are always more than helpful to assist.
Pros: Having reports that are easily accessible and can be sent daily to your email. It is also very easy to train other staff that are new to the system, everything is easy to navigate.
Cons: It's really tricky to add items and group them appropriately, most of the time I always call customer service and they end up doing it for me but the more time you dedicate to learning how the software works the better. Upgrades are also very frustrating because they prevent the use of the software if you do not complete the upgrade.
Decent for POS
Likely Extremely
Pros: Ease in changing products and daily services, nightly balance sheet.
Cons: Customer service can sometimes be difficult. Sometimes an email just won't work and you need to talk to a live person but can't always reach one.
Recommendations to other buyers: Make a list of what you need before and after you talk to vendors.
A quality POS system
Likely Extremely
Comments: One of the better systems on the market
Pros: Breadcrumb is very user friendly POS system with high level of functionality. A constantly evolving cloud based system.
Cons: Being stuck to the Ipad limits some costs involved with adopting the system. The features that are lacking still have a strong chance of being developed.
Breadcrumb has been a terrific change/upgrade from Touchbistro.
Likely Extremely
Pros: The ease of use and the back of house reporting is great. I enjoy being able to access my restaurant from home.
Cons: the connectivity with our ipads however we are changing our network hardware to hopefully fix this issue. I also don't like that there isn't an option to put an amount for house accounts that deducts as each purchase is made to zero. I have to keep a separate excel file and transfer data each week/day.
We really love this system. Very user friendly, easy to learn and navigate
Pros: This sytem is very user friendly. It is very easy to learn and navigate even for those who have never used a POS system. Huge plus is that it is easy to make changes on the fly that are effective immediately
Cons: No base terminal where changes are saved across all terminals. Have to enter changes to routing on each terminal. Only POS system I've ever worked with that required this. Way too time consuming.

Hello Vickie, Thank you for the review & I'm glad you're loving Breadcrumb! I also saw that you were working with Kimberly on the routing & printing set up. I'll continue to follow up with her, and we've also submitted this to our Engineering team as a potential new feature. Hopefully everything is working as you expect, but if not, please don't hesitate to contact us here: https://upserve.com/support-services/
Everything I was promised it would be.
Pros: Software is super easy to use. You should be able to set it up and train a server in 20 minutes or less.
Cons: The only thing I don't like so far are the tabs. I know I can change them to have less but then it's harder to find items in each category. It might be better to have one page with a bunch of categories that brings you to the item list instead of scrolling through a bunch of small tabs.

Hello Todd, Thank you for reviewing Upserve & Breadcrumb POS! We're glad you're finding the software easy to set up, use, and train your staff on. We're always trying to improve, so I've also passed your recommendations along to our product & engineering teams. -Seth
Easy to use; very intuitive. Strong reporting features
Pros: Intuitive; ease of use. I use the integration feature with gift cards and that's pretty seamless. The reporting features are very strong and detailed. Much more here than most people need. Customer service is great.
Cons: Pricey
Too musch time inputting orders
Pros: You can use it on the floor. I have nothing to add at this point The product needs alot of fine tuning to be able to accommodate a busy restaurant
Cons: Slowing down the servers on the floor and kitchen reading tickets, too much typing in notes. The kitchen tickets are too long. Having problems with the gift card company you recommended. The mag card readers do not always read cards.
I have really enjoyed the system and the support of the staff. It's extremely easy to use.
Pros: I like the daily and monthly reports that you can draw up as well as he fact that we feel like a chain restaurant because of its capabilities. As a small business this is what sets ups apart from others in our vicinity.
Cons: Ideally the only thing I don't like about the software is the many updates. Sometimes the system forces an update which hinders the workflow.

Feel free to enable auto updates so that you don't have to stop your day to day to update! https://help.upserve.com/s/article/Breadcrumb-App-Updates
The KDS has been problematic from the beginning and works unreliably.
Likely Extremely
Pros: I really like the customer service, the powerful reporting, and the ease of use for the Front of the House.
Cons: The KDS is not ready to operate without a paper ticket backup, which we didn't elect to use because we were told we could go 100% digital. The result has been an enormous amount of headache, repeat tickets, lost tickets, and general chaos during peak hours.
Breadcrumb has been great to use and their customer service is always amazing.
Pros: The reports it generates are extremely beneficial to see what our company is doing. Its helped with figuring out our busiest time to aid in scheduling and what product we are selling the most of.
Cons: Learning all the features and how to utilize them effectively and efficiently. There are a lot of options and it takes some time to figure them all out.
The process was simple enough to set up and get running, issues with connectivity and some equipment
Likely Extremely
Pros: Ease of use, very simple to navigate, back office software is easy to understand and work with. Staff has been fairly attentive when issues have arisen and 90% of the issues have been fixed within the hour.
Cons: Some of the functionality is lacking some polish, not a fan of the apple tech that it makes you use.
Overall: worked for our price point, ease of use and set-up
We've had ups and downs from the beginning, but seem to have ironed out most of the issues.
Pros: So far (we just finished installation and are close to launch), the pros seem to be the clean interface, strong reporting, and flexible design.
Cons: We have yet to launch and are still in testing, so we haven't identified the weaknesses yet. Our only issue so far has been an inability to create a membership program directly through Breadcrumb.
As a start up restaurant Breadcrumb has been a dream compared to other POS systems we reviewed.
Pros: It's ease of use is the best feature. Adding, removing, editing, items could not be simpler. Additionally it's layout makes it easy to train staff and get them up to speed.
Cons: My least favorite feature is the report layout. While all the information is there, there is also a lot of digging to get to the most important pieces
super useful to keep staff pushing for better sales
Likely Extremely
Pros: always convenient to find information for staff. shows useful information to keep everyone on their toes with sales and to push to be better them.
Cons: haven't come into any issues as yet. all information has been easy to find and makes for easy comparisons of sales per check and average guests
Overall: useful for staff to see how they are doing each week

Hi Shannon, thank you for the fantastic review! We are happy to hear that our software is so convenient for you and your staff. Thank you again for the great review!
Support chat has been extremely helpful with a new business.
Pros: Simple reports, weekly comparison reports, varied roles available, menu access and updates are easy to accomplish
Cons: Breadcrumb software is not very user friendly compared to other POS systems we have used. There are limitations with reporting and keeping logistics simple seems to be a challenge with layers of unnecessary toggles.

Hi Danielle, thanks for taking the time to review Breadcrumb! We're glad you're enjoying the reports. But I'm sorry you don't find our software as intuitive as you hoped; We're always trying to improve, so I've passed your suggestions along to our product team.
frustrating and not organized, a very bad first impression, confusion in billing and installation,
Cons: software is fine but over whelmed with the on boarding process - VERY UNORGANIIZED still having issues with billing and the sales process was not forthcomimg with costs
I have never worked with this system before and it was very easy to navigate and figure out.
Pros: The ease of contacting customer service with any questions and the ease of navigating the interface.
Cons: Not too much I don't like. It has great functionality and the ease of adding items, editing, and ordering items through to the kitchen is a breeze. I really like this software.

I expected a lo of bugs to work out in the beginning however there were few
Likely Extremely
Pros: It is very user friendly, I love the daily reports and and being able to run detailed reports with a product mix.
Cons: the credit card scanner is sub par in that it takes several passes to read which slows us up tremendously.
Overall: I have much better knowledge of payroll and food and beverage costs
Easy to learn
Pros: The fact that you can out count on items and 86 them without having to run to the office and it keeps up with sales
Cons: It takes some getting used too, It takes longer to ring things in especially drinks. Having to enter 1st course or walk in fire on every entree is a pain
The POS performs well, but the customer service has been unresponsive at times
Pros: The ability to make changes and pull reports remotely is greatly helpful. The analytics are also very helpful.
Cons: The software goes offline and needs to be restarted more often than seems necessary. The installation was very difficult.
Easy to use
Likely Extremely
Pros: It's very intuitive and makes order taking simple. Staff is much happier with it than our previous system
Cons: No ability to split single items among multiple checks leads to a potential bad customer experience.
breadcrumb is easy to use, but the monthly premium is a little on the high side.
Likely Extremely
Comments: We love breadcrumb but its monthly premium is a little high. Would like to see the rates go down a bit.
Pros: User-friendly, time clock monitoring, live sales.
Cons: Expensive
Recommendations to other buyers: Try it out but try and negotiate the price.
Worked briefly on implementation of this solution, intuitive design, requires strong network/wifi
Comments: Very simplistic design, for small-medium scale property (experience was with property servicing max 200 covers/dinner). Has the ability to perform basic menu engineering, easy recipe building and ingredient list, very easy menu item management tools with straight forward-no frills design.
Easy Interface and Easy to Edit.
Likely Extremely
Comments: I used this system for a year when I was bartending at a private event venue. This program is easy to use. It's also very easy to edit on the back end of things, if you have a menu that changes frequently.
Smooth, easy and full bodied
Comments: Assisted my sister in setting this up in her bar, it was quick and simple to set up. Support was great and the backing of the company that has acquired them is great!
Sleek robust platform thats FAST
Likely Extremely
Pros: The software move as fast as the user can, that's cool. They also offer excellent marketing & reporting data tools
Cons: Sometimes tech support is very slow to get back and fix/adjust issues. This is a MAJOR frustration with my company and other customers.

support is awful
Comments: support line waits are incredible like 30 minutes and then prompted to leave a voice mail then prompted to send an email as there was no voice mail
Loved this system
Comments: This system is great. I've used it for a couple of years now with little difficulty. Customer care is also very helpful. A+

On the bright Sunday morning of 1st November our school students participated in the Raahgiri, an initiative to free the roads from traffic which are used by citizens. They showcased their skills in the event by performing a mixture of yogasanas, dumbbell – lazium exercises and few dances .
The students displayed various placards with the theme 'Healthy Youth, Healthy India' to impart awareness about different things we can do to make our society a better place for living. Highlight of the programme was the orchestra performance wherein students played percussion instruments made out of the plastic bottles, buckets ,waste pipes etc.emphasizing on the 3 R's i.e."Reduce, Reuse ,Recycle". The performance was applauded by all.

Philippe Michiels delivers the verdict on the latest Texas micro.
Increasing concern about industry-wide standards has meant that big manufacturers – including IBM and Digital – have begun producing hardware running on systems like MS-DOS and CP/M-86. Texas Instruments has now joined the drive for standardised software with the TI Professional.
Texas Instruments selected the Intel 8088 processor in favour of its own 9900 for this very reason, and the result is the Professional – a hardware package that will run much of the industry's bestselling software.
The unit is supplied with all the necessary hardware and documentation, right down to the plug, but since it is capable of running more than one operating system, the latter is not included in the basic price. This leaves users with the choice of running their favourite software.
The operating instructions are well laid out in five sections, with a particularly clear guide to setting up the system.
Adequate information is provided for adjusting the display and positioning the separate units for comfortable use.
Diskette handling instructions are well explained, and the use of each key on the keyboard is well documented.
Once the system is set up the diagnostic diskette (which is supplied as standard) runs a comprehensive diagnostic test right down to testing each key.
The Professional itself comes in three parts – the system unit. the keyboard and the monitor. The system unit is large for a desk-top, measuring 48 x 43 x 14.5cm. It is metal-cased, and feels heavy and solid.
There is a large illuminated power switch at the side of the case, but there are no other controls, and there is no external fuse or reset switch.
The unit is fan-cooled, but the fan is excessively noisy.
Inside the Professional: the huge PSU dwarfs the disk drives at the top. On the right are the expansion slots.
Removing the top cover – by means of two screws – reveals a sealed power supply, two 5.25in disk drives and the motherboard. The motherboard has a video controller card installed in one of the expansion slots. The review machine also had an expansion RAM card installed. The construction was of a high standard, and all interconnecting cables were neatly tucked away. All connections are made at the rear.
The motherboard contains the Intel 8088 microprocessor running at 5MHz the floppy disk controller, capable of controlling four drives; 64K of single bit parity checked memory; the keyboard
interface; a parallel Centronics printer interface and the expansion interface.
To the rear – on the right are blanked off slots for interface cables/ Video output is the only one present here.
Although there are six expansion slots on the motherboard only five may be used for peripheral expansion. The sixth slot may only be used for RAM expansion.
The review machine was installed with a 192K card, but a 512K card is planned.
One of the expansion slots is required for the video interface card, and this is available in a number of configurations. The minimum configuration is a text card and contains no graphics capability. This card may be expanded to full colour graphics by means of a 'piggyback' card.
The review machine also had the full colour graphics option and with this in place the TI Professional still has room for four expansion cards.
Our machine Screen also had a National Panasonic colour monitor. When the monitor was placed on top of the system unit, which is the most desirable position, the display was unsteady. When it was placed away from the system it gave a perfectly acceptable display.
Texas Instruments says this was because it was a US monitor, and that production units certainly will not suffer from this problem.
Controls are provided for brightness and horizontal centring and the screen had good anti-glare properties.
The graphics resolution is 720 pixels horizontally and 300 vertically, with a maximum of eight colours, or eight grey levels on a black and white monitor.
The keyboard is connected at the rear of the system unit by a rather thick coiled cable. It has a tilt adjustment but when used on smooth surfaces tended to slip.
The keys themselves have a positive action and are pleasant to use, although I thought their travel was too great. The keys are switchless and should provide trouble-free operation for a long time.
The machine has a low-profile sculptured keyboard, well laid out with 12 programmable function keys, and separate numeric and cursor control cluster.
The MS-Basic supplied with the review machine had some interesting features. When Basic is started the function keys are loaded with reserved words allowing single key program entry. The ALT key allowed single-key reserved word entry.
Program editing was relatively easy since Basic allows you to place the cursor on any visible portion of text for rapid re-entry using the ENTER key.
The function keys INSERT and DELETE may also be used to edit text lines. The Basic has powerful inbuilt graphic commands. PALETTE allows any of the eight colours to be instantly redefined.
The commands CIRCLE and LINE allow circles, lines and blocks to be drawn by one command. Circle drawing is not as fast as one would expect from an 8088, but pie-charts can be drawn at acceptable speeds.
The commands GET and PUT allow the program to fetch a graphics object from the screen memory and then redisplay it at any other location on the screen.
The command PAINT is used to fill in graphic objects with a particular colour.
Basic allows the keyboard to be redefined using the KEY function and can be used to program the function keys with user information.
MS-DOS, CP/M-86, Concurrent CP/M-86 and UCSD P-system all run on the TI Professional. Hardware options include CP/M-80, additional floppy disk drives and the TI Winchester drive offering up to five megabytes of storage space. A speech input/output card will be available later.
The TI Professional is a good looking, albeit slightly bulky, desktop machine with impressive colour graphics at a reasonable price. The choice of two of the most popular operating systems means that many software packages will be available for it, and it already has Easy Writer and MultiPlan implemented for MS-DOS.
The documentation for the system and software is well presented and the inclusion of section tabs and clear indexing makes it easy to use.
Overall, I would say this robust machine is well worth the price.

Mesothelioma Symptoms
Because other diseases can cause similar symptoms, mesothelioma often is not diagnosed until it has spread. Symptoms vary from person to person and may include:
More common:
- Shortness of breath
- Chest or abdominal pain
- Fatigue
- Collapse of lung
Less common:
- Cough that does not go away
- Losing a lot of weight without trying
- Blood in sputum (phlegm) coughed up from the lungs
- Difficulty swallowing
- Prolonged hoarseness
- Nausea
- Low oxygen levels
If you have one or more of these symptoms, it does not mean you have mesothelioma. However, it is important to discuss any symptoms with your doctor. They may indicate other health problems.
Clinical Trials
MD Anderson patients have access to clinical trials offering promising new treatments that cannot be found anywhere else.
