text: I was thinking about a "success problem": Suppose EVs become popular and mainstream. Cool! Now, mentally raise your hand if you currently have 3 or more vehicles AND 3 or more drivers at home. Now imagine you need to charge 3 or 4 vehicles in one evening. What's the current draw? I just installed a 50 amp outlet for my upcoming Roadster (can't wait!). I have a Model S on order. I'll probably want something along the lines of the HPC for the Model S, which puts me at 140 amps total. My whole house is only 200 amps. Many homes in the US are only 100 amps service. So, what's the future going to be for families with 3 or more vehicles? I'm thinking they all get plugged in to a single charger unit, which communicates with the cars to figure out which cars need what to get fully charged, and spreads the load amongst the cars and/or sequences which cars get charged when. It might be good to have a way to enter priorities for which vehicles to charge first, and/or enter anticipated mileage for the following day for each car, but that's probably more input than most people will want to give. Another possibility is that many people charge at work, which has the benefit of reducing charge times at home, but has the disadvantage of pulling electricity during prime use hours, which could be a drain on the system (I'm in CA, so we're familiar with rolling blackouts). What I can't see happening is that all homes in the US get upgraded to 400 amp service. Any other ideas or thoughts here for a many EV future?

Keith Sweat Celebrates 10 Years Of The Sweat Hotel
2017 is going to be a year of milestones for Keith Sweat. Just two weeks ago he celebrated the 10th anniversary of The Sweat Hotel. During these past 10 years, the show has become the #1 nationally syndicated Urban AC evening radio show.
In an interview with Billboard Keith went on to say "Years ago, I would have never thought of doing radio, but the situation fell into my lap. I've always been a person willing to take on unforeseen opportunities. Otherwise, you can get locked into a place that you'll never be able to get out of."
This November, Keith will celebrate the 30th anniversary of his 1987 triple platinum debut album Make It Last Forever. That debut album spawned a music career that has sold more than 25 million records and five #1 albums. Sweat went on to say "In the beginning, it was more about just wanting to make a record and have all my friends say yeah, I'm listening to you on the radio." "I never imagined that years later younger artists would be calling me an OG in respect for what I've done."
Rest In Peace BOB KRASNOW "It's so hard to forget someone who gave you so much to remember!" My heart is truly full right now. My first album was on Elektra Records in 1987. Bob Krasnow gave me a chance to become a musician. Sending my love, thoughts, and prayers to his family. Bob, you will truly be missed.

The occupation [empahsis added] of the Capitol building began on Tuesday night, with hundreds of protesters staying inside demanding to testify before the Joint Finance Committee, which was required to hold hearings on the bill. The occupation [empahsis added] was initiated by students, but soon had enthusiastic labor participation, with particular unions designating certain nights for their members to sleep over.
This huge and militant [emphasis added] response led all 14 Democrats in the Wisconsin Senate to leave the state on the third day of the protests, depriving Republicans of a quorum necessary to pass Walker's bill. For nearly three weeks the legislature was gridlocked. In response to threats of layoffs, the South Central Federation of Labor passed a resolution saying that it would support a general strike. Others pointed out that the budget deficit would disappear if corporations and the wealthy paid their fair share of taxes.
The mood to escalate action was there [emphasis added], but union leaders were terrified of things going too far. From the beginning most said they would accept the economic concessions contained in Walker's bill in exchange for the preservation of collective bargaining and other union rights, sacrificing their members' paychecks to defend their own positions.
After the teachers returned to work, union officials were unwilling to call more job actions, and instead starting channeling resources into recall campaigns against eight GOP senators. This allowed Walker to wind down the occupation [emphasis added] by slowly making access to the Capitol more difficult. Rallies continued outside, but on March 9, in a legislative maneuver, the Senate detached the anti-union sections from the rest of Walker's bill and voted to pass them without the Democrats present.

If you're thinking of a holiday to Bohol, and wondering what the best way is to get from Cebu to Bohol, then you've come to the right place! Here you'll find everything you need to know on how to get from Cebu to Bohol, where to stay and what to do on Bohol island!
Cebu to Bohol
From the wondrous 'Chocolate Hills' and intriguing primates, to tropical beaches and rivers, there's a lot to love about the beautiful island of Bohol.
So what's the best way to get there?
Well that's why we're here! Whether you've arrived to Cebu by plane or boat from another island, your primary and best option is to take a fast ferry from Cebu port to Tagbilaran port on Bohol island.
There are a number of ferry companies departing from Cebu's main ferry terminal, however if you want to get there as quickly and smoothly as possible, we'd highly recommend booking with OceanJet ferry company.
OceanJet run several services per day and the journey time is only 2 hours! Yes this is fast compared to many of the other options available, which can typically take up to around 4 hours! However most importantly, OceanJet run a reliable and professional service (in our experience)!
Can you arrange your ticket in advance?
Well the short answer is you don't need to! All you have to do is simply check the ferry schedules online and plan to arrive early to arrange your ticket at the port. With sailings approximately every hour in the morning and every 2 hours in the afternoon from Cebu to Bohol (Tagbilaran Port), there are plenty of services to choose from. (Note: At the time of writing, it isn't possible to buy your ticket online so this is the best option!) However if you find your planned ferry to be full, which is possible during peak travel seasons (such as around Christmas time and other public holidays), there are plenty of other companies running regular ferries.
How early should you arrive?
Aim to arrive at least 45 minutes before your chosen sailing time. This will give you a strong chance of getting a ticket for your desired ferry time, and also provide enough time to arrange the following things before you board:
- Purchase ferry tickets
- Arrange fixed seats
- Check-in any large luggage (note that 1 hand-carried baggage is included but there is a fee for any additional luggage)
- Pay for terminal fees
- Pass through security to the ferry terminal waiting area
So what did we like most about OceanJet?
The ticketing and boarding process was smooth and efficient. The journey was comfortable and even included movie entertainment (highly unexpected!) and most importantly, we departed and arrived on time!
What to do on arrival to Tagbilaran Port on Bohol island?
If you're visiting Bohol for the first time, then we'd highly recommend that you arrange a pick up transfer through your accommodation. As always in the Philippines, we highly recommend booking your accommodation in advance and Bohol is no different!
Where To Stay On Bohol
Once you've made it to Bohol, where should you stay? Well you have a couple of main options to choose from. You'll need to decide between the beach (Alona Beach is typically the most popular) or further inland (closer to the island's main sights such as the Chocolate Hills).
Our pick? The Loboc River! With stunning tropical palm trees, incredible sunsets and relaxing riverside activities (see section below!), as well as being close to the island's main sights such as the Chocolate Hills and Tarsier Sanctuary, this was the perfect option for us.
However, if it's beach time you're looking for, then Alona Beach is the island's most popular option. It's also possible to book island tours to the Chocolate Hills etc from here.
The other advantage of staying by the Loboc River is that you'll find many more budget accommodation options, particularly during high season (December to March). Use the link below to search and book accommodation on Bohol.
Looking For Accommodation In Cebu Or Bohol?
If you're looking for some accommodation options in Cebu, Bohol or elsewhere in the Philippines, we recommend you check out Agoda. Whenever we're making plans for a new destination, we always research the accommodation options first to check what's available. That's just our travel style. If you want to get some accommodation ideas in Bohol, Cebu, or anywhere else in the Philippines, check out the options below!
Top Things To Do On Bohol
So you've made it from Cebu to Bohol, and you've found a place to stay, what are the top things to do on Bohol? Here's some of the best!
- Visit the Chocolate Hills!
- Meet the island's famous primates at the Tarsier Sanctuary
- Stand Up Paddle Boarding on the Loboc River (our favourite activity!)
- Firefly watching by night
- Visit the small but perfectly formed Butterfly Sanctuary Of Bohol
- Take a cruise down the Loboc River
- Boat Trips
- Diving or snorkelling off the Island's South Coast
- And simply admiring some of the best sunsets in the world (in our opinion!)

text: I just feel like venting in here. I got a 162 in June, LG-1 LR-9 RC-8. Now I feel like I did much better in LR, a bit worse in LG, and about the same or slightly better in RC. I'm frustrated because I think this was my best LR ever, and it could be a waste because of my uncharacteristic LG struggle.

I like it. It might be because I get to play with my ring or maybe I'm not worried because my settings aren't as delicate as some other bees

Following is an appeal for humanitarian help for the victims of the recent Taiwan earthquake, circulated by the Washington State China Relations Council and sent to this journal by its Executive Director, Joseph J. Borich. We join Mr. Borich and the WSCRC in urging that you contribute generously to the relief effort.
As you have seen and read, Taiwan was struck by a massive earthquake (7.7 on the Richter Scale) late in September. The blow devastated central Taiwan, especially the communities of Taichung, Nantou, and Fengyuan, and caused extensive damage and casualties in Taipei and elsewhere. The death toll exceeded 2,000 with thousands more missing. Our hopes and prayers go out to the people in Taiwan and to the many members of our community with family and friends there.
For more information, visit the Washington State China Relations Council website at www.ambassadors.com. Mr. Borich's very illuminating analyses of recent developments in U.S.-China relations can be found in this issue's special "focus on China" click here.
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has announced an important forthcoming conference on China, to be held on the campus Thursday, November 4, 1999, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Organized by the Universitys Center for International Studies and Kenan-Flagler School of Business, the conferences theme is The Politics of Doing Business in China: Chasing the Dragons Tail and Winning.
On August 25 the Department of State released Foreign Relations of the United States, 1964-1968, volume XXXIV, Energy Diplomacy and Global Affairs. In the mid-1960s newly-emerging issues, such as space flight, the technology gap, world population growth, human rights, and the hijacking of civilian airliners, in addition to the 1967 oil embargo and the rise of OPEC, brought fresh challenges to the Presidential administration of Lyndon B. Johnson. The responses of U.S. foreign policy principals to these often complicated problems are presented in this Foreign Relations volume.

Agenda 21: The Death Knell of Liberty• CFP
Therefore, send not to know for whom the bell tolls, It tolls for thee."—John Donne (1572-1631)
The death knell for freedom has been tolling for some time, and only now are people starting to hear it. It started tolling faintly, decades back, and has slowly progressed in volume, until today its tolling is impossible to ignore.
The United States of America—that "shining city on a hill"—had a good run of it, and made a gallant effort at establishing liberty for all. But as the old saw would have it, all good things must come to an end.
Liberty, after all, is an aberration in mankind's history—a light that has flared here and there over the centuries, only to dissolve back into the darkness.
America is barreling towards becoming a bit player on the world's stage, and its vaunted middle class—once the envy of the world—is on the verge of being eliminated.
For the good of the planet, for the good of Gaia. for the good of the collective.
Freedom is being replaced by servitude, capitalism by socialism, and property rights by "sustainable development."

University of Wyoming President to Retire
UW President Tom Buchanan announced Thursday that he will retire as president at the end of summer 2013. The 61-year-old made the announcement during his annual "State of the University" speech, where he noted that UW has largely achieved the "long list of things that I believed we needed to accomplish to move to the next level" when he became president in 2005.
Buchanan noted that exactly 125 years ago — on Sept. 6, 1887 — UW opened its doors to its first class of students.
Governor Matt Mead said Buchanan has left his mark on UW and the state, adding
as alumni, my wife Carol and I are proud supporters of the University of Wyoming. We appreciate Dr. Buchanan's efforts to shape and enhance the university and build on its stature within Wyoming and across the globe."
UW Board of Trustees President Dave Bostrom of Worland said the board accepted Buchanan's retirement with regret, as the president has provided exemplary leadership and led the university with distinction.
Before becoming UW's 23rd president in 2005, Buchanan served in various capacities at UW during a 35-year career. A native of New York, he attended the State University of New York at Cortland, where he graduated with his undergraduate degree in 1973. He earned his Master's of Science degree from UW in 1975 and a Ph.D. from the Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1979.
After completing his doctorate, Buchanan returned to Wyoming as an assistant professor in the Department of Geography at UW. Over the next 30 years, he rose through the faculty ranks to full professor, and has held various administrative positions including department head, associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, and provost and vice president for academic affairs. He became president July 1, 2005.
Bostrom said efforts will begin soon to find Buchanan's replacement

I am writing this blog after a long gap. The reason is that i am screwed up for the past 12 days i use internet at home for just 1 hour and that too for just checking mails only. I wake up at 8 in the morning and come back at 8 in the night. There are only few occasions when i used to get up at 8 in the morning- in my training at Satyam, in my first year at college when we used to have our class and in my early childhood ( When i was 5 or 6 years old) as told by my parents. I woke up at 5 in the morning. Amazing!!! I wonder that i was early riser. Coming back to blog from my past schedule.
If we go across this world, we will found thousands of religions. And these thousands of religions account to millions of traditions and rules. Taking alone Hinduism, We have 33,00,00,000 Devtas alone. So, I wonder if there are so many devtas in hinduism alone then how many devtas are there in other religions. Taking there total of all religions, it would come nearly same as number of people on Earth. Then where they sit or where they have their palaces. Earth is going to be full in near future and heaven and hell in total is already full. Then i am 100% sure there would be an explosion. This very thought comes to me very frequently since i was 10 years old.
What i believe is that these devtas are creation of humans only. Actually, million years ago when the comunity of people was rising and there wer mere 1000 people on this earth, then a group of wise men decided that they need to declare someone as Ultimate Leader to whom everyone would pay their homage and bow their head in respect. This way GOD was created and they also created new rules. But then you ask how the other GOD's come from?? It's the basic nature of human that he considers himself superior. He started creating his own GOD according to his own needs and created their own rules. In this way population of GOD went increasing.
Lastly, the big question is: Whom should we call god or bhagwaan??? According to me, God is omnipresent and is seen in every human being. Each one of us has a unique quality that is present in himself only. For calling someone God, his Soul should be pure. For making our soul pure, we should not indulge in any of the practices that hurt anyone, should not speak lie (But there is a condition of that given by Bagga should be met), help others and spread knowledge and awareness among masses. And when our soul becomes pure, our mind goes into NIRVANA state where we can feel a lot of energy. So, our main aim should be to attain this NIRVANA state to make the spirit pure.
This was all that i want to say in this issue of blog. I am sorry if i used any offensive statements. My intention was not to hurt your religious feelings. These all facts are based on my personal feelings. Keep Smiling and Enjoy life.....But i suggest you to make it a habit as not to waste your food and make sure that you feed one mouth a day....Thank you!!!!

Polypropylene (PP) is a versatile thermoplastic material, compatible with many processing techniques and used in many commercial applications.
PP is available in a wide variety of melt flow rates, ranging from 0.3 to over 1000 g/10 min, and it is easily recyclable. It can be processed by all methods, including injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, blown, cast film, and thermoforming.
At Milliken, we've created advanced additive technologies, including clarifying agents, nucleating agents, and reinforcing agents, that enhance the natural properties of polypropylene, making it clearer, stronger, and more versatile for use in everyday products.
PP, together with PE, consumes the least amount of energy during production and produces the lowest carbon dioxide emissions when compared to other plastics. Its lower density also means that switching to PP reduces the absolute amount of waste. Parts made from PP can be recycled multiple times in a wide variety of applications before incineration is necessary. When that time comes, it is possible to recover more energy from PP during incineration than from any other comparable plastic. It also flows more easily as it degrades, without cross linking, gel forming or off-gassing.
Both Starbucks and McDonald's have switched to polypropylene cold cups rather than polyethylene terephthalate (PET), using less plastic and lowering their greenhouse gas emissions.
Polypropylene parts can be 100% recycled into many applications. There is an existing market for recycled PP (rPP) in a very wide range of products such as automotive applications, buckets, caps and closures, garden furniture, pallets, pipes, and more.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - April 1, 2011) -
Note to editors: There is a photo associated with this press release on Marketwire's website.
National Bank Financial Group (TSX:NA) is pleased to support the Fondation Martin-Matte in its first major financing campaign with a donation of $50,000 over five years. The funds raised will enable the Fondation to carry out its ambitious project of opening special care facilities geared to the needs of victims of head injuries in the regions of Laval, the Laurentians, Quebec City, the Eastern Townships, Mauricie and Central Quebec, as well as set up programs to assist them.
Thousands of people suffer from head injuries each year in Quebec alone, and this carries heavy consequences for victims, their families, and all of society. There is an urgent need for resources adapted to dealing with head injuries. "National Bank Financial Group is very proud to be associated with the Fondation Martin-Matte and salutes the efforts of the Matte family coping with this reality and, in particular, Martin's determination to make a change," stated Jacques Marchand, Senior Manager – Corporate Financing Group.
While National Bank Financial Group devotes substantial resources to the improvement of care, its donations and sponsorships program emphasizes prevention and research. In this way, it wishes to maximize leverage, act upstream of the traditional intervention process and contribute directly to better educating the public about various physical and mental health problems. The Financial Group's donation to the Fondation Martin-Matte, together with a previous contribution, will be put toward research and preventing head injuries.
Every year, National Bank Financial Group invests millions of dollars, i.e., over 30% of its donations budget, in various health initiatives. More information on the many causes and projects the Financial Group supports as part of its commitment to the communities it serves can be found in our social responsibility report at www.nbc.ca/socialresponsibility.

The road leading to the desert is suitable for only one car, to pass anyone on the road proves to be very difficult. On the other hand there are no ditches on its sides making it easy to drive on the verge. Easy, but also damaging to the car's body. While driving you can easily imagine taking part in those famous car duels out of American movies.
We got to the backyard of a sandstone house with stables where the camels where waiting to take their cargo – us. Yes, they smell, but it's not as bad as I imagined. Have a look at the picture below and tell me if you don't think that my friend in white turban looks like Passepartout. Getting on the camel wasn't too difficult, hanging on to the saddle when they get up wasn't bad as well, it's mostly getting off you should be careful about. We set on our journey: three tourists on camels, one Berber on foot and a dog on its four paws.
As we set off from the village of Tagounite there was a lot of palms, bushes and all sorts of greenery, the further we went the less plants and the more sand was starching in front of us, but only when we got to the camp we could see the rock desert I came to see. Don't understand me wrongly, sand dunes are so romantic but have nothing to do with how most of the desert looks like.
The camp consisted of four sleeping and one dining tents (also we were spoiled with a toilet further away from the camp). All tents were made of camel blankets stretched on wooden poles and secured with ropes. We loved it the second we saw it. As you can imagine we played among the dunes like little children, rolling down the dunes, jumping in the air, running around and playing with our footmarks. The vast space was incredible. The sky enormous and blue.
And then when we got tired we sat down on the top of the highest dune and drank moroccan tea, thinking of things that can only be shared in moments of beauty. Unforgettable.
The night on the desert made me fall in love with Africa. I know people say it all the time and believe me there is no point in me describing it, you have to experience it yourselves. There are so many stars that every now and again you can see one falling down. Imagine how many wishes can come true. We sat by the bone fire after supper and watched the fire burn. No one felt like talking, what can you say?
We met a woman who lived in one of the other tents. She came for a one night like we did, but then felt the urge to come back and now she had been in the camp for last 6 days. This is the magic of the desert, peace.
The night was terribly cold, I slept in all my clothes under 2 blankets and duvet but I still was cold. The tent seemed like a penthouse comparing to what we are used to. I didn't dream that night I woke up every now and again to think how cold it was and to fall asleep again… well in the end it was January.


text: Just got this today and thought I would put up a few pictures. Really nice case, well constructed, thought out and designed. Material is really great quality and no odor, like many of the other cases we have seen around here. Feels very solid and completely protects the Ipad providing full coverage all the way around. A great improvement over the first Workbook I think. All the cutouts are exact and match up perfectly with all the Ipads connectors & camera. Also it allows for screen protector and rear skin protector, very important to most of us! Changing the bands for the front cover is a nice idea, a simple process, with several colors to choose from. No hibernation problems when front cover is folded over. What really struck me more than anything else was how slim it was, virtually no bulk and not a great deal of weight added to it. The viewing angles are pretty much infinite as the velcro system allows it to be put in any position you choose, very stable, no slipping or sliding. I think this is an extremely well made product by Mophie and it will no doubt do quite well. Out of the 4 or 5 folios I have used so far, this is the best one, no doubt! Highly recommend it!

Reverberating into local politics: Taiwan businesses in China are getting out as the China economy continues to slide. This will undercut the KMT argument, constantly made, that Taiwan needs to tie itself economically to China in order to survive. As each year passes, it is more and more clear that the golden age was under the Chen Administration, and the Ma Administration deeply impaired Taiwan's ability to engage China on Taiwan's terms.
"After the Lunar New Year holiday, we will likely see a large-scale shutdown of small to mid-sized businesses in China, including those run by Taiwanese people," said the Association of Taiwan Investment Enterprises on the Mainland (ATIEM), a corporate community made up of Taiwanese businesspeople in China.Those Taiwanese businessmen remaining in China will be either too invested to leave, or true expats unwilling to return to the homeland, slowly becoming ever more out of touch with their homeland. Like all expats they have developed a set of elaborate rationalizations for their living outside of their homeland, which are often mistaken for meaningful political commentary.
The association said a wave of departures started around four years ago, adding that the current wave was different from before — in the past, while Taiwanese businesses would shut down factories in China, many kept their assets in the mainland as they maintained an optimistic outlook on the Chinese economy.
"They used to either keep their mainland savings in banks or invest in real estate, businesses ventures or the stock market. But what is different about the current wave of departures is that not only have the factories and assets left, people have stopped feeling any sort of sentimental attachment to the place altogether," an anonymous committee member of the association told local media.
Meanwhile the KMT continues to stumble. This week the news came out that the forms for new party membership application hilariously contains only places in China to be filled in as birthplace...
However, the party's Web site for online membership application does not include most Taiwanese counties and cities as an option for the applicant's place of birth.They probably bought it from a Chinese company. UPDATE: Nope. It was deliberately designed that way to comply with the Republic of China territorial boundaries.
Although it lists 59 locations for applicants to choose as their place of birth, no Taiwanese administrative division is included other than Taipei and Kaohsiung.
KMT Chairmanship hopeful Steve Chan observed that the KMT might disappear if its internal splits continue. Report in English.
The big news this week was Tsai's cabinet reshuffle. As a commenter predicted here last year when this disappointing cabinet was picked, Tsai is moving out the technocrats, among whom are KMTers (Taipei Times report quotes observers noting that too many KMTers remain) and replacing them with politicians who can effectively run the ministries and campaign for the DPP. It's February, remember, and campaigning for the 2018 elections, which will be held in
Also hilariously, Hau Long-bin, the KMT heavyweight, criticized the cabinet changes, accusing the DPP of nepotism since the new Minister of Labor is President Tsai's cousin, saying: "Nepotism is not good under any circumstances."
Hau, readers will recall, is the son of KMT reactionary General and Premier Hau Pei-tsun, and owes his high position entirely to the fact that his father is a powerful KMT figure.
This habit of constantly replacing cabinet ministers is bad for Taiwan. Needs to stop... and Tsai's obliviousness to simple issues, such as appointing a family member to high posts in her administration, as well as appointing few women to positions in her cabinet, also needs to stop.

- Taiwan sees record high tourists in 2016. As expected. Excellent news for Taiwan. Nobody will even notice the loss of Chinese tourists, and as word gets around, tourists from more lucrative countries that aren't threatening to murder Taiwanese and take their island will come. And before you tell me something about soft power or people to people contacts or other nonsense, the Chinese group tourists were simply making China even more despised. The individual tourists are far more respectful and likable.

Name Ornaments
Hello everyone,
Well after moving the scroll saw inside I have been busy making saw dust.
What have I been cutting? You ask such good questions! I may have to lead you by the hand but you do get there. I have been cutting name ornaments. Today I will show you some that were ordered plain. I just cut and sand them. Of course that is after designing, printing, gluing and drilling holes for the blade.
Plus a pic of one that I need to hear how they want it finished. It is a gift that they didn't know about but will hopefully see and let me know how they want it done. What am I talking about?! Only I know the details of this one and it is not for all my readers to know. Just that special one.
Also a pic of my new situation room (aka laundry room) where I am doing the work. Well at least the cutting and the spraying of the adhesive. Design and print are upstairs and drill and sand are still out in the garage.
I got more to do sooo….
Later, Harold
Yep that's my heater in the background.

Our dog bite lawyers can help you if you were injured in a Pontiac dog bite attack. These attacks often result in serious injuries, including lacerations, puncture wounds, nerve damage, and broken bones. Dog bite victims incur hospital and medical expenses for their treatment and often need plastic surgery for scars and disfigurements caused by a bite.
We have obtained significant settlements and verdicts for our clients injured in these dog bite attacks. Compensation is paid for pain and suffering, disfigurement, medical expenses, and lost wages. We can help you or someone you care about win the best settlement for your case.
Many cities and counties have ordinances regarding dogs and the responsibilities of dog owners. An owner or keeper of a dog who violates any of these ordinances can be held liable for damages in a civil lawsuit to a dog bite victim. The ordinances can be used to prove a case in addition to other Michigan dog bite laws.
Pontiac Dog Bite Laws
In Pontiac, there are laws that apply to dog owners. These can be found in the Pontiac City Ordinances. Specifically, they are as follows:
Sec. 18-50. Dangerous dog may be slain.
If any dangerous, fierce or vicious dog shall be found running at large and cannot be taken up or tranquilized and impounded, such dog may be slain by any police officer or agent authorized to perform any duty under this chapter.
(Code 1985, § 6-47)
Sec. 18-62. Running at large; leash requirement.
(a) No person owning, keeping, possessing, harboring, or maintaining a dog shall permit the dog to run at large within the city at any time. Each owner of a dog is required to confine the dog within the limits of their premises unless the dog is securely confined upon a suitable leash, not more than six feet in length, held continuously in the hands of a responsible person capable of controlling the dog Logging/towing chains are not a permissible method of securely confining a dog to a leash.
(b) A dog shall not be considered to be at large if it is:
(1) Securely confined in an auto which is adequately ventilated;
(2) Being exhibited at a show; or
(3) Engaged in any activity approved by the state.
(c) If a dog is found at large in violation of this section, it shall be impounded according to the procedures set out in Article III of this chapter.
(d) If a dog is found to be in violation of this section or 18-76(a), the dog, at owner's expense, shall be tattooed by or under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian. The identification number shall be assigned to the animal by the state department of agriculture and shall be noted in its records pursuant to Act No. 309 of the Public Acts of 1939 (MCL 287.301 through 287.308), or as an alternative to tattooing, the owner and/or possessor shall have a microchip placed under the dog's skin, at the owner's expense, by or under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian. The microchip shall contain an unalterable ID code that will last for the life of the dog and that can be scanned to identify the dog and its owner.
(Ord. No. 2134, § 1, 6-20-02)
Secs. 18-63--18-75. Reserved.
Pontiac Dog Bite Reports
Quite often, the victim of the attack files a report with either the local police or local Animal Control agency. When a report is filed, it is necessary to obtain report. Our firm routinely obtains these for our clients.
For a report filed with the Police Department in Pontiac, you should request the Animal Control report at the following location:
Pontiac Police Department
110 E. Pike Street
Pontiac, MI 48342

This is a simple cannabis oil health blog. We are here to update our cannabis community with the most relevant CBD news there is. This site has been created out of the passion we have for cannabis oil and ALL the benefits that come along with it. There are many misconceptions out there around CBD, we are here to to help you decipher the truth.
Is CBD Legal?
There are many publications out there in regards to cannabis oil and it's legal status. There are also very many MISCONCEPTIONS about it's legal status. CBD Oil is 100% legal if it is hemp based and contains less than 0.03% THC. We spoke with a Denver criminal defense attorney about this matter, and they confirmed that many people are unaware that CBD oil is legal if it is under the regulated THC amount.

Rangers are keen on bringing Swiss defender Philippe Senderos to Ibrox.
Aston Villa's Philippe Senderos
Rangers are waiting for a response from Swiss defender Philippe Senderos as they look to strengthen their squad.
The Times report Rangers have offered a contract to the centre-back, who is giving the offer 'serious consideration' after being impressed by Mark Warburton during discussions.
Philippe Senderos
Senderos is a free agent after a spell with Swiss side Grasshoppers, who he signed with on a six month deal in January after being released by Aston Villa.
The 31-year-old did not make Switzerland's Euro 2016 squad but has more than 50 caps for his country and featured at the 2010 and 2014 World Cups.
Stoke's Glenn Whelan and Philippe Senderos (L) of Fulham in action
He began his career with Servette before signing with Arsenal in 2003 and being hailed as the 'next Tony Adams', but never lived up to his potential at the Gunners and was sold in 2010.
Senderos has also had spells at AC Milan, Everton and Fulham.
Rangers' move for Senderos is a sign that their hopes of re-signing Tottenham's Dominic Ball are fading, as they seek to strengthen their defence ahead of the league season, which kicks off this weekend.

Just because I have not heard of the "wireless adapter" due to the fact that I have never owned a MAC before doesn't give you permission to be an [bleep]. Clearly you have no life if you post in a geekstogo forum without helping. Perhaps you should re-evaluate your reason for living. I am only 13 and needed help, perhaps losers such as yourself should get out more...Seriously you posted for no apparent reason....YOU...HAVE...NO...LIFE

Posted 09 October 2006 - 06:44 PM
I'm sorry? I fail to see the offensive content in my post... I had never heard of the item you were referring to, and so I attempted to clarify what you said by replacing that word with one I thought was equal to it. Also, a wireless adapter has nothing to do with a MAC system, as all systems will need one in order to connect wirelessly. Operating System has no effect on that. Also, I'm 16, so don't give me that age junk. A hint of advice to you sir, get a little more mature. I was going to help you, pending a response of clarification on your part, however, you fail to comply with my questions and seem to just want a fight. Also, I posted because I try to help people like yourself who don't completely understand a computer related issue they are facing. If I didn't want to help people, I wouldn't be here. I think we're done here. Good day to you

gravity is not absolute and will eventuall change because it is not timeless.
and Raymond I love you brother.
and Raymond I love you brother. look why dont yall just kick me off because the longer i debate with you the stronger my faith gets and that is not your purpose. your whole purpose in life is vanity which is why you all reek of arrogance, self indulgence.
that a goodone ray please get all that hate out(the fruit of your beliefs coming out of you). it will be therapeutic. no gays and lesbians will be in heaven if they believe the truth, but they will change eventually if they seek the truth and truly believe.(just a natural occurence) God does not judge you by what you do . that is the true gospel.
that is the old covenant not the new.
no we are no longer bound by the 10 commandments according to the new covenant. the law was from God, that came to bring sin alive. thats the purpose of the law so that sin may increase so you will recognise what you have recieved through Christ.
read romans 6:1 and 6:15
accept or not im just preaching the truth of the WORD.
no we are no longer bound by the 10 commandments according to the new covenant. the law was from God, that came to bring sin alive. thats the purpose of the law so that sin may increase so you will recognise what you have recieved through Christ.read romans 6:1 and 6:15 1 So do you think we should continue sinning so that God will give us more and more grace? 2 Of course not! Our old sinful life ended. It's dead. So how can we continue living in sin? 3 Did you forget that all of us became part of Christ Jesus when we were baptized? In our baptism we shared in his death. 4 So when we were baptized, we were buried with Christ and took part in his death. And just as Christ was raised from death by the wonderful power of the Father, so we can now live a new life.
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means!
HUH dont understand your statement.
velkyn here is what he is sayingIn this fallen world everytime sin increases in this earthly realm so does sickness, poverty, etc. Its like the carnal lifes natural reaction, so why would you do that! plus christians would not be very smart to live like that in the eyes of society. We should be good stewards of the faith for the sake of others and ourselves. He is saying Stop its just stupid. But in the spiritual realm we are free in his sight as long as we believe. You dont change for Christianity, Christianity just naturally changes you. do you get it?
no one has proof of truth, it is corrupt to say that. just like our justice system is flawed your argument is flawed. i am glad to know that you do not claim an absolute truth that clears alot up for me and you beliefs.
explain this to someone wrongly convicted of a crime they did not commit, there is a chance of error. innocent people serve life sentences because of reasonable doubt all the time. with that being said all people/ general public are either innocent or guilty so that makes all people a person of interest. there is no way to escape this conclusion. the general public is either guilty or not. (state of limbo or in my argument FAITH)
so i guess your belief in evolution is definitely flawed beyond a reasonable doubt because there is legitimate proof that people are wrongly convicted on the basis of reasonable doubt. so in a court of law your argument would lose because i have evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that your argument is not betyond a reasonable doubt. i dont claim i can proove Christianity to you, but to me it just makes more since because we have been created as faithbeings( that is who we are to our innermost core being) and that is a matter of faith. i know where you come from with your beliefs and how you conclude your philosophy.
by the way we are also just as much an emotional/ love/ fear being as we are a faith being.
how does athiesm decide what is moral or what is love/ hate/ fear where did that moral authority originate from? and how and why? and do you conclude that since evolution is not absolute that the only absolute is that we are a being of faith and love?
i choose Christianity because it makes the most sense in dealing with who I really am as a being. It fills that void of Love that we all cry for in our innermost being.
it changed me i robbed, i stole, sexually was immoral, smoked blunts, toted weight, licked shots, and would baby make, get bent and pay rent.

New Amen Corner - Europes leading 60s Revivalists
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair if you are going to a New Amen Corner concert because you'll soon be in a "Summer of Love" mood; for their music is full of that Feel Good Factor.
The New Amen Corner have emerged in the last couple of years as the hottest band on the 60's circuit because of their ability to recreate so perfectly the sound and atmosphere of that era. Their power house live show has made them one of the most exciting bands around, period clothing, authentic equipment and with the band encouraging their fans to don 60's attire, their shows really breath life back, into what must be music's most prolific decade.
The musicians of the New Amen Corner have a musical pedigree second to none and have been band members with the likes of Screaming Lord Sutch, The Symbols, Jeff Beck, Steve Ellis, Alexsis Korner, Roy Wood, Robert Plant, Mike D'Abo, Cliff Bennett, Alvin Stardust, Ruby Turner, Mike Oldfield, Chip Hawkes and Jaki Graham to name but a few!!!!!
The original Amen Corner was one of the biggest influences on the sixties pop scene to come out of Wales. With their own brand of West Coast Music, a mixture of mod, psychedelic power pop, heavy horns, swirling Hammond organ, the distinctive voice of Andy Fairweather-Low and their power house live show made them one of the most exciting bands around at the time. With million seller hits like "Gin House", "Bend Me Shape Me", "If Paradise was half as Nice", "High in the Sky", & "Hello Suzie" they soon became a household name in the late sixties.
But unfortunately due to the bands premature demise at the end of '69 the legacy of this truly great band has become some what forgotten. However due to a long standing friendship between sax man Frogman Curtis and Alan Jones, (original Amen Corner founder member) the idea to form the New Amen Corner to keep the memory and music alive of this legendary band was born.
Although there are no originals in the New Amen Corner they have gained much respect from many original artistes that are still performing today, which has enabled them to add some of best vocalists to have come out of the era into their show's, so it not unusual to see the likes of Mike DAbo (Manfred Mann), Steve Ellis (The Love Affair), Chris Farlowe, Cliff Bennett (The Rebel Rousers, Chip Hawkes (The Tremeloes), Dave Berry or Tony Crane (The Merseybeat singing with the band and for some of their shows the New Amen Corner even add a six piece orchestra (The Summer of Love Orchestra) to obtain that full psychedelic sound.

3 Free & Easy to Use Online Photo Editing Apps for Beginners
It's never been a better time to be a hobbyist photographer. Thanks to affordable DSLR, and point and shoot cameras and the ever improving cameras found in mobile devices its easier then ever to jump into creative photography.
Since there's more to making a photo great then just the camera, we look to software options like Adobe Photoshop or Apple's Aperture to add post processing or effects to our images. Generally these software packages cost a bit more than a general hobbyist can afford, but thanks to the growing number of great free web apps that cater to the beginner even those new to photography can develop their photographers tool kit.
PicMonkey (Chrome, Firefox, Safari)
iPiccy (Chrome, Firefox, Safari)Aviary Image Editor or Pixlr, without simply mimicking the Photoshop interface so as to keep the learning curve a bit less steep for newcomers.
Pixlr Express (Chrome, Firefox, Safari)Pixlr, this app is by far the one of the more attractive browser apps I've used. With a simple to use interface that looks great in fullscreen, and offering a subtle yet smart selection of basic tools and features, Pixlr Express takes photo editing for beginners a step in the right direction. Though missing some expected pro features such as curves and levels the interface really makes up for what it lacks in feature depth.
Though there is no real substitute for pro level software, a steep learning curve often leaves hobbyist out of the loop. These browser apps offer a stepping stone into a more intermediate photography workflow helping newcomers find their footing with the vocabulary and tools of trade. If you're just getting started with photography, or even if you're a seasoned pro who wants to diversify their tool kit, these simple to use (and more importantly free to use) browser apps are definitely worth checking out.

The end of the school year and the beginning of the school year mean crayons. Yes, crayons. My children always need new crayons at the beginning of the school year (shocker) but at the end of the school year, they are down to the nubs and bits. You know the ones without wrappers or stubs that are technically still useful but hard to grip. The kids prefer new crayons with wrappers that have the color name on them. So what can be done with this large bag of crayon nubs and bits?
I bet you have a box, bag or pile yourself, right? If you're a teacher or art teacher, I know you have piles upon piles and you're wondering what you can do with these colorful little stubs.
Fear not, the crayons can be recycled at home or even at special centers that reuse the crayons.
Option #1 Crazy Crayons
This recycling effort has stopped more than 92,000 pounds of discarded crayons from making their way into landfills. That's a lot of wax! A company called LAF Lines Ltd has developed a Crayon Recycling Program: you send LAF Lines Ltd your discarded crayon stubs, and they in turn send the stubs to a company that recycles them into Crazy Crayons. These two businesses work together to produce unique crayon creations.
The Crayon Recycling Program collects all of those crayon stubs through schools and individuals who participate. School children and teachers collect the stubs in boxes and send them to LAF Lines Ltd. If you are thinking of implementing this for your classroom, preschool, daycare, home school, etc., here are some guidelines and suggestions for sending the crayon stubs through the mail:
- Use sturdy cardboard – crayons are surprisingly heavy.
- If there are wrappers on the crayons, leave them on. This makes it easier for the folks at LAF Lines Ltd to sort them.
- Use UPS ground to send your packages of crayons, and call ahead to arrange for your shipment. Since you are sending your crayons to a business, you may get a break on postage.
- Consolidate your crayons into one box to save shipping – but don't exceed the Post Office's 70-pound limit.
- Fit the crayon stubs snugly together to minimize the chance of the box getting crushed.

Option #2 Recycle & Reuse at Home
If you are unable to participate in the above program (say you only have a dozen or so crayon bits), there are some ways you can recycle them at home. Here is an interesting idea for turning your crayons into candles.
To do this craft, you will need:
- a shoebox
- sand (such as you might use in a child's sandbox)
- string (for a wick)
- old soup cans or other heat-resistant, metal cans
- white paraffin used for candle making or candle wax (available at hobby stores)
What you need to do:
- Halfway fill the shoe box with sand. Dig a small, circular depression in the sand, about the size of an orange. Push your finger into the bottom of the depression in 3 or 4 places. These will be the candle's "legs," so try to space them evenly and make them the same length.
- Cut a wick from the string and gently insert it into the sand in the middle of your mold.
- In a skillet (electric skillets work especially well), bring several inches of water to a boil and keep it at a low simmer. Halfway fill the soup can(s) with small pieces of paraffin and crayon stubs. Set the cans into the hot water and melt.
- Using a hot pad, lift out the soup can and pour the liquid wax into the sand mold.
- When the wax is solid again, gently dig your candle out from the sand.
There is no need to let those bothersome crayon stubs be a waste!

lately i've been experimenting with lots of new art supplies. it's so fun to see how they do and don't work together. and to come up with fun combinations i would never think of or see..unless it was for the beautiful mistakes that come from trying something new.
rub-on decals
i absolutely adore using these to embellish paintings, or anything really. these strawberry decals remind me of the strawberry shortcake dolls i had as a kid. back then, i hated that everyone thought i looked liked strawberry shortcake with my red hair. but now, seeing these brings back sweet memories of having fun and being creative.
i adore that these run-ons are so easy to use too. it's a great way to quickly and easily add detail to a piece.
giant kid brushes
these brushes are so fun to use, especially with your non-dominant hand. they completely make you feel like a kid. not just because of the colors, but they're inexpensive, so when i paint with them, there's no need to be too careful. after a few uses, the bristles get pretty crazy too. so they're perfect for filing in backgrounds or covering up large spaces and staying loose.
i usually make my own stencils by drawing a design or printing it on typing paper, then cutting the shapes out with scissors. but when i'm looking for something a little more detailed, the store-bought stencils are fun to try. i especially like finding cut-outs like these birch trees that allow for amazing negative…perfect to let backgrounds show through to the next layer of a painting.
old school watercolors
these are the watercolors i had as a kid. again, they're inexpensive and the colors are super sheer, so they're perfect for creating layers. the colors are also extremely vibrant and really pop.
liquid watercolors
i found these and purchased them because i adore the colors. they're labeled as "authentic chinese watercolors," but from what i can tell, they are just like my other watercolors that come in a tube. i love these because they're so fun to layer with acrylics in larger areas, especially for vibrant backgrounds.
white gesso
lately i've been really into white or ivory backgrounds, especially for my skies. i really love the clean, wide open space feel it gives. and white gesso works well in place of acrylic to cover up large areas and mix with a bit of acrylic to create a lighter, whimsical hue. i find i'm not as careful with it either (compared to nice, white acrylic), so it's fun to layer on and scrape away, showing some o
f the underneath colors, shapes, stencils and details.

TED Talk: Martin Seligman on Authentic Happiness
Psychology is a slippery realm. It deals with fuzzies - be they fuzzy good or fuzzy bad. I think that characteristic flows into people's associated ideas and feelings about psychology. Many people, myself included, just had a fuzzy feeling that something about psychology was wrong - or even evil.

Mucinex DM is used to treat coughs and cold symptoms. It contains two different medications; guaifenesin, which is an expectorant that loosens and expels mucus, and dextromethorphan HBr, which suppresses coughs, notes WebMD. Adults and children over the age of 12 years can use Mucinex DM, but children under the age of 12 should not use this medication, states the Mucinex website.
Mucinex DM comes as an extended release bi-layer tablet, which contains the active ingredients of 600 milligrams of guaifenesin and 30 milligrams of dextromethorphan HBr, states the Drugs website. Some inactive ingredients are cellulose, magnesium stearate and sodium starch glycolate.
The recommended dosage for this medication, which is taken with water, is one to two tablets every 12 hours, but the total dosage should not exceed four tablets in a 24-hour period. It is important not to chew or break up the tablet.
Although Mucinex DM may not cause any serious reactions in most people, there are some side effects associated with this medication, such as dizziness and possible allergic reactions, notes WebMD. Mucinex DM may interact with other medications, such as monoamine oxidase inhibitors, which could have fatal consequences. In case of an overdose, seek medical attention, especially if there are symptoms such as seizures and breathing difficulties.

During the 2012 China Airshow (Nov. 13-17) in Zhuhai, AVIC unveiled two models of the FTC-2000 Mountain Eagle (Shanying) fighter trainer/attack aircraft. The FTC-2000 is an export variant of the Guizhou JL-9. The two models show that AVIC has made major improvements to the aircraft since 2001 when revelations surfaced that a development program was underway to replace the JJ-7 fighter-trainer.
The original FTC-2000, according to the Zhuhai brochure, "can accomplish advanced training of the pilot, conversion training of the 3rd generation fighter and combat training of modified F-7 and F-8 series aircraft and possesses certain combat capability."
However, the brochure of the new FTC-2000G (G=modified), adds reconnaissance capabilities to the list. It states the aircraft is a "light multi-purpose aircraft for meeting the demand of training task of fighter pilot as well as tasks of combat and attack in the international market. It has the characteristics of stable performance, strong function, low price, high benefit-ratio, and can accomplish medium/advanced training, tasks of combat and attack. And it can also fulfill combat area reconnaissance and attack impact evaluation with the reconnaissance pod suspended."
"FTC-2000G appears the latest effort to keep the venerable J-7 (MiG-21) design line alive and available for export to states with very limited defense budgets," said Douglas Barrie, senior fellow for military aerospace, UK-based International Institute for Strategic Studies.
"I've never been impressed by the FTC-2000, in whatever variant," said Richard Bitzinger, a defense industry specialist at the Institute of Defence and Strategic Studies, S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Singapore.
"It's an old design (looks like the old Super-7), and getting older by the minute. Yeah, you can put recce pods on it and other things, and I suppose (as a two-seater) you could adapt it for air-to-ground missions," Bitzinger said. "The Chinese have failed to secure any export sales for the FC-1 (other than Pakistan, which coproduces it), and I have similar skepticism toward the FTC-2000."
A quick comparison of the technical data reveals the FTC-2000G has more hard points and is heavier, but now has a shorter endurance time. Compare the two brochures below:

TAMPA, Fla. - It has been 10 years since the training camp of his life, the one that ultimately sent him to the highest levels of baseball in which he'd ever play.
He still has short, blonde hair. He still flashes the infectious smile that made him so popular among his old teammates. But as he strolled around the Yankees' minor league complex this month, the navy blue and white jersey and pinstriped pants made Travis Chapman somewhat unrecognizable.
Especially to those so used to seeing him wearing red.
The former all-star third baseman with the Red Barons, Chapman spends his days now working with the New York Yankees' stars of the future. This past offseason, the Yankees hired him to serve as the fourth coach with their Gulf Coast League operation in Tampa, where he'll work primarily coaching infielders and baserunning. He'll also help out in other areas when needed, he said.
"I'm just really excited about the opportunity I have here with the Yankees," Chapman said. "It's so nice, with such great people, to come in here and work with these guys and help try to develop them into big leaguers."
Not so long ago, Chapman was just like the players he'll be coaching this year - guys like highly regarded 18-year-old third baseman Miguel Andujar and shortstop Austin Aune, the Yankees' 2012 second-round pick.
The Phillies picked Chapman in the 17th round of the 2000 draft out of Mississippi State, and he moved quickly through the organization. By 2002, he caught attention for a power surge at Double-A Reading that saw him slug 15 homers, knock in 76 runs and hit .301.
In 2003, he took over for Chase Utley as the Red Barons' third baseman and proved his 2002 at Reading was no joke.
He hit .272 with 12 homers and 82 RBIs at the much-more pitcher-friendly Lackawanna County Stadium and represented the International League at the Triple-A All-Star Game. He even earned a big-league call-up that September.
He appeared in one game and got one at-bat.
And in many ways, that was it for Chapman.
The Phillies designated him for assignment after the season. He became a free agent and spent the next three seasons floating around the minors in the Royals, Reds and Pirates organizations, battling injuries, time and, ultimately, the inevitable.
Forget another shot at the majors. After that solid 2003 season with the Red Barons, he'd never play another game in Triple-A. In fact, it would be another three years before he'd even get back to Double-A.
But once he came to grips with the end of his playing days after the 2006 season, he knew a second career in the game could be in the offing.
He spent several years coaching at the high school level and even served as an assistant with the United States national team before getting a call from Yankees farm director Pat Roessler last year.
"Baseball was always such a special thing to me. It was fun. It was a challenge to learn things," Chapman said. "I always had a feeling that when I got out of it, I would try to get into (coaching)."
Look around the minor league complex, and players who made their mark within the last decade before moving on to coaching are growing increasingly evident in the Yankees system.
Former Red Barons catcher Michel Hernandez is a catching instructor there.
Former Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees catcher P.J. Pilittere is going to be the hitting coach at Class A Charleston this season, and one-time Yanks outfielder Edwar Gonzalez holds the same position with one of the Yankees' two GCL entries. Former Yankees prospect Drew Henson is the hitting coach with the other.
"The first thing we look for when we hire coaches is character and integrity, and (Chapman) has that in spades," Yankees senior vice president of baseball operations Mark Newman said. "We have some really great young coaches. Great, great, great. Inquisitive. Creative thinkers."
Ten years ago, in a spring training camp much like the one he's helping run now, Chapman seemed on the cusp of the big leagues. In fact, he was.
But getting back into professional baseball as a coach, he insists, isn't his way of getting back to the bigs to stay after all these years. It's about being there for that player on the cusp, pushing him to be his best and producing new big leaguers.
"Whatever happens with me, I look at it as I'm here to get these kids better and get them to the big leagues," Chapman said. "I had an awesome opportunity for myself. My goal is to get that for them."

Kaortri Invasion
Espra is a small research station on the Astral plane. The main buzz about the small town sized facility is a portal leading to a plane never explored before. A large banquet has been held by the benefactors of the station, and general excitement has percolated the staff for the endless possibilities this new plane could hold. Unbeknownced to the guests, an unspeakable terror has emerged from the new portal. These are the Kaortri, creatures of the Far Reaches and children of the void that lurks there. These beings have come to destroy the flesh creatures who have disturbed their realm, and drag back all existence into the alien nature of the Far reaches.

Planning makes life easy. In fact, a lot of us plan things ahead using the best technique we know or works for us. So planning isn't the problem. General laziness and short attention spans are some some of few reasons things that were planned in advance do not get done. But it is an undeniable fact that we move forward at least a bit more with a plan, than when we don't have one in the first place.
There's no dearth of apps and techniques to plan things in advance. One among them is MoreDays that plans to mesmerize with the sheer beauty of the web app. Moredays is a completely new way of planning and recording life that cross the borders of standard planning and turns paper calendar into an electronic/digital calendar. Time to take it for a spin!
The goal behind MoreDays is to create a system that will be of your interest and you will never experience boredom while planning. It is the first time management application that is based on photos and drawings. All your memories will be recorded with pure fun. Unlike its competitors, the app doesn't require you to know GTD or any other productivity technique.
Getting Started
Adding information to a newly registered app that is empty can be very boring. A prominently placed Add icon makes the entire process a lot easier. Do not miss the address book styled tabs to identify the type of entry you add in the app. However, it isn't necessary that you have to select the right tab before adding an entry. You can also comeback and handle them at a later point in time.
Adding an Entry
The funky fonts and effects add to the awesomeness of the user Interface. You can add an entry the same way we do in a lot of apps. Use the Add stamps option to assign an appropriate icon to the entry. Icons aren't the only additions to an entry. An entry can have additional event, task, note or contacts to make it more useful.
I tried to create a calender entry with an event linked to it. If you have used a digital calender before (online or desktop), you will find the process to be exactly the same. The ability to create repeating events, alarms and attach a map are major highlights.
The user interface to create each entry (tasks, events, notes etc.) is unique and showcases the amount of effort the team has put into the app. However, things like adding the beta release note to tasks created is a bit annoying. When I was adding to dos to the app, things got a bit hairy. Whenever jumped to a different section of the app and came back to the tasks section, they either would have duplicated or deleted automatically. I notified the developers of the same and to my surprise, they fixed it within few short minutes and pinged me back. Kudos!
Using Images
Putting your images to good use to record memories one of MoreDays' best features. It's a great way to create a visual diary of sorts, so easily and with so much relevance to the context. You don't have to add your own images all the time and there are some stock images and cool sketches to make your entries look gorgeous. Use the built in image resizer to trim the photos you upload. I'm not sure about the storage and bandwidth limitations though.
I had some trouble with the dark background and felt it didn't do justice to the gorgeous design of the app. Then, I accidentally discovered that I could switch backgrounds. Use the pointer near the Maps tab and get yourselves a cool background. The denim looks great!
Final Thoughts
Our lives are full of photos, drawings and memories and the developers at Moredays, have realized their significance and have put them to great use to record memories to cherish. It is fun to turn all the notes and meetings into a graphical record of our lives. MoreDays doesn't do bookmarks, but I guess that's probably one of the very few things it doesn't do . It syncs nicely with Google Apps and Evernote (mentioned in the homepage, but still not showing up in the Settings page).
Nobody wants to use different application for different tasks. But in reality, it is next to impossible to keep up with everything all together. However, Moredays comes closer to being the one app that helps cover your personal and professional lives. You will never need an extra app for tasks, calendar, contacts or notes once you take the leap. It is tough to compete in the crowded landscape of productivity web apps, but MoreDays has got the goods to be a worthy alternative to market leaders.
Share Your Thoughts!
How do you plan your daily routine? Do you follow techniques like GTD, Pomodoro etc. religiously to get things done?
