You may not need to empty your wallet for weekend DIY projects anymore.
Ottawa has launched its first non-profit, volunteer-run tool library, full of hand tools, power tools, kitchen tools and garden tools.
The Ottawa Tool Library's co-founder, Bettina Vollmerhausen, said more people are looking for ways to reduce consumption.
"In a lifetime of a drill, it gets used for 12 minutes," Vollmerhausen said.
"That's why so many things end up lying around."
For $50 per year, the members can get unlimited access to all the tools in the library.
The library project crowdfunded the initial cost in the spring. Since then, everything has been set up by enthusiasic volunteers and there are already more than 170 members.
The available tools — ranging from bread makers to different types of saws — have been donated.
Those interested can sign up for membership online and start signing out tools for a week at a time.
Vollmerhausen talks to the Sun about the new library, located on 250 City Centre Ave., Unit 208.
Q: What is a tool library and why didn't Ottawa have one until now?
A: "It's essentially like a book library but you can come and borrow the tools. No one was doing it before … We're non-profit, federally registered, volunteer-run. We're the 13th tool library in Canada."
Q: Whose idea was it to start a tool library in Ottawa?
A: "Frederic (another co-founder) and I that went out for beer one day. He was lamenting … how there was the tile cutter that he had to buy. It was cheaper to buy than rent it. We knew he wouldn't use it again.
He said "Why isn't there a tool library?" And I said "It'd be great if there is one … I could donate too."
Q: How did you guys get started?
A: "There was a 33-day crowdfunding campaign. We set out to raise $15,000 … and raised over $18,000.
After crowdfunding campaign, which was amazing – we created even more following. Then we had to get a storage location because until then, it was all in my garage and it was full…it started snowballing.
We got access to this space Aug. 7. It was one wide open space. Everything you see here was built by volunteers. We have a strong roster of volunteers for different things – construction, education and events."
Q: How many tools do you have here?
A: "We have catalogued more than 350 tools and we have more in storage. We're continuing cataloguing."
Q: Why do you think sharing economy has really taken off?
A: "I think more and more people are realizing that for us to preserve the planet and live healthier lives, we can just start sharing things."
Q: Do you find people don't want to buy stuff anymore?
A: "A lot of younger people are saying "I live in an apartment … I need a drill but I'm not going to buy it … where am I going to store it after?"
Q: What's the most unusual tool you have here?
"Depends on what kind of work you do … This is a pasta maker. There's also a thing that looks like a toothbrush for a dinosaur, but it's actually a glass cutter."

It's easy to get lost in the haze of the new school year. No one is perfect, but starting with clear goals can get you on the right path for a smooth year.
- Schedule academics first. Often, parents wait until all the various activity schedules come out before broaching this topic. Actually, expectations for how much time and effort is put into school work should be set BEFORE any other activities are scheduled, to make sure that all activities are viewed in light of the family goals, and modified as necessary. If education is the top priority, then the routines will be easier to manage once that expectation is clearly set.
- Set boundaries for screen time. Between computer & ipad school assignments, video games, phones, etc., the issue of balancing screen time is a topic every family has to face. The sooner you set limits, the easier the school year will be. Often, schools require part or all of homework to be completed online. Make sure that after homework time, there is a "screen break" of at least 30 minutes where your child can do non-screen activities. His/her eyes and brain will thank you! Set boundaries for how much screen time for entertainment purposes is okay on a typical weeknight and a typical weekend. There are many recent scientific studies that talk about how critical boundaries for screen time are in helping your child learn and stay healthy.
- Assign two "Get Out of Jail Free" cards. If you have a student who is extremely disorganized, you will have trouble keeping track of the numerous times he/she tells you that an assignment was forgotten, a book left at school, etc. From an early age it helps students learn responsibility and organization if parents aren't so quick to rescue their forgetful child. Give your child two "passes" that they can utilize through the quarter, semester, or school year for those most critical situations, like bringing a long term project into school that was left by accident on the dining room table… If your child understands they have some help, but not too much, they will better avoid tricky situations and learn the consequences of poor planning.
- Establish communication with your child's teacher(s). Let the teacher know right away that you care and want open communication. Don't be bashful about asking questions about what's going on with your child in school. Ignorance is not bliss, and no parent likes the surprise ending of "you child's work is unsatisfactory" or worse yet, "your child failed." Teachers are often very busy managing many different students, books, expectations, etc. Reaching out can make the teacher's job easier and prevents things from slipping through the cracks.
- Don't wait to get help. If you notice your child's skills, motivation, or confidence dropping, seek help immediately. The longer problems persist, the more damage is done, and the more intense the recovery. A parent's intuition is often right on target, and if the teacher isn't picking up the same signals, it doesn't lessen your concerns. You know your child best, so seek out help if you feel something isn't quite right.

Rice Paddy Art | GYODA
August 1, 2019 @ 08:00 - October 12, 2019 @ 17:00Yen400
RUGBY Rice paddy art 2019. True to the forecast, the 2019 RUGBY rice art depiction started to become visible in early August. This depiction is made from planted, not painted rice plants. It is absolutely incredible. The image is usually crystal clear for most of September. It will start to fade at the start of October, but you will be able to see parts of it until about mid October.
Gyoda in Saitama, near the Kumagaya 2019 Rugby World Cup stadium, is the largest rice paddy art display near Tokyo.
So if you are coming for the 2019 Rugby World Cup and you are going to watch a match in Kumagaya, you may be able to combine this event with your travel plans. Kumagaya is beside Gyoda and easily commutable by car. (See more in access below).
You can view from the 50 meter observation tower of Kodai No Hasu between the hours of 9 am and 4.30 pm (last entry 4 pm). The cost to enter the tower is 400 yen for adults and 200 yen per child over 6 years of age. There is a small nature museum of the first floor which is included in the entry price. Parking and use of the neighboring park are free. The outdoor rest area is also free to use. There is an udon restaurant and "fried jelly" (not actual jelly, just the name) kiosk beside the entrance to the tower building.
The 2018 theme of the rice paddy art in Kodai No Hasu (Gyoda) was "Great Wings and Nazca lines". Each year there is special events during the 2 month period the rice period art is visible / partially visible. The 2019 rice paddy art theme image is the Rugby World Cup. The image will display three of the Japanese rugby team members.
Rice paddy art in Gyoda is relatively new. The first display was just 11 years ago. It was very basic. The designs have become more elaborate and bigger over the years. And in 2015 the field was awarded the Guinness World Record for the largest work of rice field art (bottom row first picture on left on above collage). The art work, which uses 9 different types of rice for contrast, is over an approximate 27,000 square meters.
If you want to read more about how the rice paddy art is created I recommend this blog post (I have no affiliation to this site):

Maps show where PG&E may turn off power in California this weekend
Find the latest PG&E outage maps here.
Pacific Gas and Electric updated their outage maps Thursday night to reflect locations around California that may see a deliberate power shutoff over the weekend when severe critical fire weather is forecast.
You can see maps of the potential outage area in the gallery above; find a list of cities where PG&E may cut power here.
PG&E is closely monitoring the forecast for dry, offshore winds Saturday night into Monday, and may turn off power to 850,000 customers in 36 counties across portions of Humboldt, the Sierra foothills, Western Sacramento Valley, North Bay, and across the greater Bay Area, Monterey Bay and northern Central Coast on Saturday, Oct. 26. Parts of Kern County could lose power on Sunday.
The timeline of the potential power outages, should PG&E decide to move forward with the shut-offs: Northern Sierra Foothills will be affected first, with outages predicted for 3 p.m.; North Bay and the Mendocino areas at 5 p.m.; the Bay Area, coast and southern portion of the Sierra Foothills at 7 p.m.; Kern County will be shut off at 11 a.m. Sunday. This timeline was released Friday night and is subject to change, depending on the weather.
Daniel Swain, a climatologist at UC Los Angeles, noted the magnitude of the outage in the maps on Twitter, writing, "#PSPS outage map suggests that power cuts could extend across most of Bay Area this weekend in anticipation of extreme wind event (exception: SF proper & immediate bayshore)! This would likely be among most extensive #BayArea power outage in modern history."
This news comes after PG&E cut power to some 179,000 customers Wednesday and Thursday to mitigate wildfire risk. Despite this, the 23,700-acre Kincade Fire appears to have started in a shutoff zone Wednesday night. An outage earlier in the month impacted nearly 2 million California residents.
The windy weather and intentional power shut-offs are happening at a time of year when the landscape is dry and Northern California has seen little rain since last spring. Meteorologists are closely watching the Saturday night forecast when the biggest wind event since the 2017 North Bay fires is expected to whip mountaintops and send howling gusts through valleys.
This will be the third spell of gusty conditions in October — when the landscape is dry and parched — and the National Weather Service predicts it will be the most severe of the three.
"Confidence is high we're going to see strong gusty offshore winds and critical fire conditions again Saturday night," said Drew Peterson, a forecaster with the NWS office in Monterey."This looks like it will be the strongest of the three … at least everything we have to look at now is telling us this. Of course, it's subject to change with better data available closer to the event."
For updates and the latest outage information: You can visit PG&E's website here. (Note: The website has been crashing off-and-on. PG&E says it's working on this issue.)

Spinach and Sausage Spaghetti Sauce (Stovetop or Slow Cooker)
My grandmother made the world's best spaghetti sauce and we were lucky enough to almost always have some waiting in the freezer packed to the brim with homemade meatballs, sausage, or whatever meat she was trying to use up that week. And every time I make my own spaghetti sauce, I wished I had learned her recipe, even though it was different every time she made it, because I have never had a sauce that tasted quite as good. Lately I have been thinking about her and dreaming about her famous spaghetti sauce. Although today's recipe isn't one she would have made, spinach doesn't belong in spaghetti sauce, it was definitely inspired by her.
In terms of this sauce, it is quickly becoming one of our favorites to have in the freezer for a quick dinner. Packed with fire roasted tomatoes, sausage, garlic, onion, carrots for sweetness, and herbs - this sauce has tons of flavor. If you can't find crushed fire roasted tomatoes, you could use diced tomatoes or San Marzano tomatoes. Just crush them up using your hand when you add them to the sauce. One more note, because I love my pasta or spaghetti squash with lots of sauce, the serving is pretty large. You could easily just use half a cup and then it is just 3 points and 118 calories per serving.

- Tool kit to install snap buttons (including fabric hole punch)
- 3 x 6mm grommets
- Tool kit to install grommets (including fabric hole punch)
- 1.5 yds sturdy black cotton drawstring cord
- 2 x spring cord locks (these secure the cord in place at the waist)

From the Closet Case Patterns Community
Customer Reviews
Very happy with the kit all around and my jacket!. Having everything match in the perfect size was a time saver for me. No hunting all over the internet for what I needed.
This kit was really useful. Usually I would hunt around for hardware, but I figured this kit would make everything simpler. I like how everything matched, and that there were extras for me to practice. Everything in it was high quality. It was so much easier to have everything I need in 1 package. I don't anticipate making another jacket anytime soon (I love mine - but so time consuming!), but if I did I would probably purchase another kit.
I do think a key (with the kit) would have been helpful - just a diagram naming the tools and different parts. The guide online was useful, but I would like to have the key stored with the tools so I know what I have, and can use for other projects.
The first time I make a unique item I like to buy kits. Then I can spend time sewing instead of searching. This kit is perfect for that. The quality is just what you'd expect from Closet Case! I'd certainly recommend it.
Overall I really liked the Kelly Anorak Jacket Packet. I appreciated having all of the tools to install grommets and snaps as well as the sew-along instructions for installing them. I have made two Kelly Anorak Jackets thus far - one for my daughter (I added a faux fur button on/off collar over the high collar option) and one for myself
(I shortened the sleeves to 3/4 length and put a simple band finish on them).
The Kelly hardware kit includes:
15 x 15mm spring snap buttons
Tool kit to install snap buttons (including fabric hole punch)
3 x 6mm grommets
Tool kit to install grommets (including fabric hole punch)
1.5 yds sturdy black cotton drawstring cord
2 x spring cord locks (these secure the cord in place at the waist)
2 x cord stoppers (these finish the end of the cord)
1 x 26" separating coat zipper (black with brass teeth)
The only changes I would make are:
1. Make the separating coat zipper be a parka style zipper so it can unzip from the bottom as well as the top.
I am quite short so when my jacket is zipped up and I sit down it would be nice to have the option to unzip from the bottom.
2. The cord stoppers are a little small relative to the cord so I can't hide a knotted off cord inside the cord stopper. I suppose I don't have to use it but it's a nice touch to make the jacket look more professional.
3. Offer a shorter separating top-down/bottom-up zipper option for us short women.
Otherwise, great!
Life happens and I have not had a chance to use the kit. I did, however, take time to look at it and I am very pleased with the contents as well as the price. Thank you for putting the kit together.
Betty Grim
I loved that this kit came back into stock! I had been trying to source the hardware other places when I found out that it was available again,
My only qualm is that there are no directions for the grommets and snap buttons (at least a "key" that tells you what parts are for what and which tools do what) I found the tutorial online to be missing this information as well and even though that includes pictures, they aren't very clear.

Wednesday, 10 October 2012
So, I thought I'd show a little peek of the total pigsty I'm currently working in - between doing 1001 other things (except for housework and ironing):
You can see I'm sorta working on about five things at once, and getting nowhere fast. On Saturday I intend to curl up in a corner and just sleep while you all play - it's the only way I'll get some peace from the mayhem going on here! Trust me - it'll be a whole load more peaceful.......wake me up when there's food to be had though :)
Happy WOYWW - to see what on earth I'm rabbiting on about, nip over to Julia's here.

We're a funny bunch. Feel guilty if we don't post, feel guilty if our desks are messy (or alternatively, if there's no evidence of creative activity going on.) Love your gorgeous Christmas you've got there on the left and lots of fun embellishments at the ready if you decided to make more of the same design. Have fun Saturday and if you're a hugger, deliver some hugs from me (across the "pond") ~ Laura #109

Lucky you for having such a tidy desk and having quite a few things on the go as well. Wish mine was half that tidy but haven't got the strength to make a start on it.

Hi Di,
Oh, I've been MIA lately too -- but am back today. Home and happy with my new little Poppy. So far she isn't as friendly as Tulip but I'm giving her space.
I really wish I could be there Saturday!
Saw about 50 wild horses on the way home from Colorado yesterday - just beautiful.
Happy WOYWW
Hugs, Kay #126

I dreamed my coworker got turned into a cat and I knew this voodoo priestess and we were going to ask her to change her back, but we were worried about payment, you know. So another coworker said he had just the thing. Then I woke up so I don't know what is just the thing you need to get a voodoo priestess change you back into human form after you've been turned into a cat. I do know you should use baby wipes and a pry bar for removing tars and feathers. Yes, I know that because I read it on the internet and you can believe everything you read on the internet. Is that a pile of pearls or jewels on your desk? Either way they are fab but I'm more into pearls these days, not that it should influence you any. Have some nap for me on Saturday.

a girl has to have her priorities and going to the crop is important. As far as sleeping while there...I would just bet the lot would let you sleep through so I would make sure I took enough cash to pay someone to wake me up when it was time to tie on the feed bag! Just sayin...Vickie #41

Happy WOYWW Di, great desk. Love, adore, want that Christmas tree design, it looks fabby with the embellishments on. Also, spotted the lovely SU sailing boat, has a certain person given you inspiration this week?
Sorry to hear your week is manic, you have the WOYWW weekend to look forward too though!

I've got a great tip for you...deep breathing...in thru the nose and out thru the mouth...it really works...if I can block out helicopters with just one deep breath, you can do this!
Other than that gem....I have no advice!

I very much doubt that you'll be shirking in a corner Di. Shrieking perhaps, but definitely not shirking!! I'm here late enough to have seen the lovely finished cards, you really did get a lot of lovely bling didn't you?! Have a great time at the crop, we have a forecast of pouring rain for practically two days, but a) we still really need the rain and b) it means I can stay home and craft. Itching to get going again.

Can you believe it? After weeks of bits of stitching here and there I have yet another finish:
Little House Needlework's "Love" from their Scripture series with Crescent Colors threads on platinum Murano. There's a black border charted, but given that I plan to make a "frame" pillow, I left it off.
I have been spending some time on a Good Reads website cataloging books and looking at how others rate the same books I've read 😉 Given that I have read hundreds, if not thousands, of books in my lifetime, it'll take a while to make a dent in my personal library. If you do decide to track your library, please do add me as a "friend" as I love to see what others are reading.

So I noticed that with the new Internet 150/150 plan, you get a new Advanced Wi-Fi modem that has AC Wi-Fi built in. I was wondering, does this moem have a coaxial connection built in to connect to Optik TV devices? If not, I was wondering if the wireless digital boxes still require that extra acces point anymore, since I have 2 TV's in rooms that don't have Ethernet access.
I was also wondering if the 150/150 plan still includes Wi-Fi plus since it seems that the modems can never be placed in the center of any household.
Hi Rydwag,
For the Internet 150 plan the WiFi modem has built in coaxial connection at the back which is called HPNA port. That port is used to connect the PVR or the main TV box. The wireless digital box always requires wireless access point to receive wireless TV signal from the modem. If the Modem cannot be installed on the center of your house most likely it needs to have WiFi plus to brodcast the wireless signal on your house.
If you're referring to the new T3200 it does have a coax port but it supports MoCA. I'm not sure if that also supports HPNA or not.
Hi Nighthawk,
Sad to say the new T3200 MoCA is not compatible for HPNA since it was designed for 4K PVR boxes.
With 100Mbps plans.... my T3200 is "Ethernet connected" to the PVR. So for 150Mbps.. it's done differently?
Hi XL,
If your using ethernet connection for your PVR its going to be the same if your going to upgrade to 150mbps.

So R&B artists of the day get the devil because of the explicit sexual nature of their material. It's a fair assessment as sometimes the question has to be asked, is there any more 'emotional' components to relationships besides just hooking up.

30 Simply Filthy R&B Songs!
Love hasn't faded from R&B completely, believe it or not. That said sex is definitely in its trendiest position ever within the genre. Folks, parental advisory labels are popping up everywhere these days and for good reason. Basically, "Darling Nikki" would barely qualify the explicit label these days. Some R&B songs are just simply filthy….

The film "Paul, Apostle of Christ", the new production of Sony Pictures that premieres today in Puerto Rico, benefits greatly from its conventional approach to dramatize the final test of faith of the titular figure before his death.
Much of the film depends on long conversations between Paul (James Faulkner), imprisoned and condemned to death in Rome for continuing to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ after his crucifixion, and Luke (Jim Caviezel) who is transcribing everything.
Under a less skillful direction, listening to the gospel on the screen would be more than enough. Fortunately, this film is not limited to that and is responsible for illustrating how what is being preached can be manifested through different types of tests and vicissitudes.
The plot of the film presents a Rome that has its emperor burning Christians in the streets of the city. In order to escape death, the followers of Jesus are forced to hide and decide between leaving the city or staying and continuing to preach the word and helping those who are being victimized by Nero.
On several occasions during the film Paul insists that "love is the only answer" to the tyranny and abuses that Christians are suffering. The script puts this to the test with three narratives that intertwine as Lucas transcribes his conversations with Pablo.
The first shows how the protagonist went from being someone who sought the destruction of everything that was associated with Jesus to being his greatest spokesman. The second shows the division among the refugees of the religious persecution of Nero; Some want to arm themselves and take justice into their hands, while others try to hold on to what Jesus preached.Searching Term : Paul, Apostle of Christ Full Watch Paul, Apostle of Christ Movie Streaming Online 2018, Watch Paul, Apostle of Christ Movie Streaming HD 1080p, Free Paul, Apostle of Christ Movie Streaming Online, Download Paul, Apostle of Christ Full Movie Streaming Online in HD-720p Video Quality , Where to Download Paul, Apostle of Christ Full Movie ?, Paul, Apostle of Christ Movie Include All Subtitles 2018.

The Fall of UTV in Ireland
In 2001 UTV (proper) had a market share of 10% south of the border. In the 1990s it benefited great from Ray Burke's limits on RTÉ advertising. It was the de facto commercial Television service. In 2001 TV3 and RTÉ2 also had an audience share of 10% each. By 2014 on the announcement of UTV Ireland UTV (proper) had just 3% of the market. You can imagine why, when TV3 dropped Coronation Street, UTV saw this an opportunity to regain lost ground.
In the last year and a half on the air UTV Ireland achieved a 6% share of the audience, a 100% increase in audience share, with UTV (proper) retaining a 1% share.
Meanwhile TV3 has seen its audience share decrease by almost 30%. In the last year and a half TV3 has seen an audience share of 8%, compared to 11% in 2014.
Neither of these figures take into consideration the problems faced by all Irish TV Broadcaster. While the onslaught of the On Demand services continue, and none of the figures released by RTÉ or TV3 relating to their players show that they have a good market share in the On Demand sector, Irish broadcaster's are dealing with the onslaught of Opt-Out advertising from UK broadcasters, which account for at least 20% of the market, this compares to just 46% over the last year and a half for Irish TV services.
Its not that Irish broadcasters haven't had event programmes on their side. In the last 12 months TV3 and RTÉ2 have both had major sporting events. TV3 having just 8% of the market with coverage of both RWC2015 and Euros 2016, and RTÉ2's coverage of the Euros saw them with just a 7% share over the past 12 months. UTV Ireland kept a 6% share of the market. Even with the ITV soaps and major sporting events neither of the 3 channels wear able to come close to the 10% of the audience they previously attained.
Fragmentation of the TV broadcast audience is a major part of this lose of viewers from Irish TV broadcasters. That coupled with Irish TV broadcasters failure to provide alternative services of their own. So far TV3 has only provide 3e, while RTÉ have been limited in their ability to provide such alternative services.
UTV Ireland entered a market filled with fragmentation and failed to even provide a +1 service. You would think that ITV would have used UTV Ireland to cross promote the alternative suite of ITV channels, as they will do on UTV (proper).
A +1 channel wouldn't have saved UTV Ireland. TV3 blackened their new service over the last year and a half, helped by the Irish media. TV3 came out fighting according to former CEO David McRedmond who over saw the meltdown at TV3, first in 2006 with a ridiculous price paid for an Irish TV channel by Doughty Hanson (265 million euro) and finally sold to Virgin media for just 80 million.
The big winners are of course Virgin Media and ITV. Virgin Media have snapped up a failing TV channel while ITV have used their weakness to insure a further 10 year deal for ITV studio programming, meaning since 1978 ITV related programmes have found a home on at least one TV channel aimed at an Irish audience.

Orgue de St Antoine
Historic site and monument , Listed or registered (CNMHS) , 19th century , Religion at Quarouble
The organ of the Church of Saint Antoine in Quarouble
Father Louis-Joseph Ricourt (1799-1868), the parish priest of Quarouble from 1825 to 1853, had the excellent idea of getting the municipal council to vote the sum of 3500 francs on August 6, 1839 to purchase an organ, and the sum of 747 francs, on July 22 1840 to have it installed. This organ was installed by Pierre-Jean and Henri Devolder, organ builders from Brussels, with this today being their only known work in France although they had already installed numerous instruments within the immediate area around Quarouble. The Devolders (or De Volders) were part of a dynasty of Belgian organ builders, and were in business throughout the whole 19th-century.

About Us
Accommodation Concern was established in 1987, evolving from the shared vision of local day centres, clergy, and Councillors of all political persuasions. The vision was for a single organisation to work with people affected by homelessness locally and those in a precarious housing position.
By 1992 the organisation had grown and a charity was formed. In 2012, although still a charity (charity number 1146257) we formed a Company Limited by Guarantee (CLG 07945758) to support our work.
We know that prompt and accurate advice may help service users to make informed choices and can often help prevent the trauma, emotional, physical and financial cost of homelessness.
We all work hard to support clients to meet their basic needs and realise their potential. People can rely on us for support, advice, life skills training and practical assistance.
Accommodation Concern prevents and alleviates poverty, need, hardship and distress, by delivering advice, support and preventative services designed to end homelessness, build independence and resilience and improve well-being, life chances and empower.
Accommodation Concern is a registered charity (number 1146257), and a company limited by guarantee (number 7945758)

Franchisee Name: Scott & Kelly Dayton
Franchise Name: HobbyTown
Locations: 5 Stores in Virginia Scott & Kelly wanted to build a successful brick & mortar business. They felt that creating a memorable experience and opportunities in their community of hobby enthusiasts was the secret to acquiring new customers and growing their business. The Dayton's HobbyTown story began with the purchase of an existing and under-performing Virginia Beach, VA franchise store. The HobbyTown inventory management formula was applied to the previously cash flow negative operations along with a lot of elbow grease to begin a turnaround. Profits from store operations were continually reinvested to grow into a 5- store Virginia based chain that continually raises the bar for providing consumers with memorable shopping experiences.
Involvement is key, not just in the store but in schools, clubs and events in the community. RC Drifting at our indoor track. This has created an entire business in RC touring cars and accessories. Same thing with Mini-Z racing. Gundam build days every week. 2 model contests per year. Craft days. LEGO days. Model classes. Airbrush classes. RC parking lot racing - sometimes clubs put on the event; other times we do. We have an event area in our front window where we post event info. It is also on Facebook, which makes it also show up on our sitelet on hobbytown.com. The events we host, and in which we participate, were the single most important thing we did in 2018 to grow sales. Our objective is to keep people excited about the product they buy from us. We give them ways to enjoy it in the company of people like them. And oh by the way...all of our events are free.

Town Council briefs for June 4 2019
Fairview town council heard from Mackenzie Municipal Services Agency (MMSA), on June 4, as they proposed to the town to join the membership of the agency, but the council did not seem impressed.
MMSA helps encourage development in smaller municipalities and gives access to professional services.
The fee for membership to the MMSA for the town of Fairview is set at $85,000 the same amount as High Prairie, Grimshaw, and the M.D. of Peace.
"They really hosed us on that last cut, it was insulting almost," said councillor Paul Buck.
The town has not been a member of the agency since 2014, said CAO Daryl Greenhill, but still uses their services.
The services provided by MMSA are mapping, GIS, community designs and a variety of studies to help inform the council of any issues they may be unaware of, said MMSA spokesperson Karen Diebert.
Diebert said that the M.D. of Fairview has committed to MMSA for the 2020 year.
Greenhill said that they currently use the MMSA when needed, using the non-member prices.
"You have to think what is the most cost-effective, or what's regional," said Greenhill.
Greenhill said that some of the features of the MMSA such as online access to imagery have been accessible for years in Fairview without the membership, while the MMSA has only begun looking into these options.
Greenhill expressed his concerns to the council that when they were members of the MMSA, there were extra costs to the town, which is why the town initially left.
Other items covered at the June 5 meeting include:
On July 9, the town will be meeting with Alberta Health Services (AHS) administrators.
"We have been working on this for months and months," said Greenhill in an interview on June 5.
Greenhill said that the town wants to know how they can help support AHS to bring more services to the hospital.
Services the town hopes to see included equity surgeries and maternity.
Currently maternity patients are sent to either Peace River or Grande Prairie.
They also hope to see more of a variety of specialist come to the Fairview Health Complex on a more semi-regular bias.
108 Ave will be getting new curbs from 113 st to 108 st. the project is looking to be completed by June 30. Traffic will be down to one lane and parking will be limited while construction is in progress on the new curbs.
Council moved the motion to move the North town welcome sign too just south of the acreages on 113 Ave.
The Rotary Club will be putting its sign on the old Esso signpost once the station is decommissioned; the council passed the motion with the clause as long as the Rotary House manages the landscaping around the sign.

Project Description
Westin Yankee Trader Resort
Parking structure facade, glass and metal railing systems
Westin Yankee Trader Resort is a Falkanger Architects-designed renovation featuring Poma custom horizontal railing and custom parking structure facade.
Prior to the restoration of this structure, what are now sliding glass doors were fixed windows. After major restoration commenced, the balcony sliding doors were only permitted to open 4" or less because there was no guardrail or balcony. Poma was able to design and provide a system that could be face-mounted acting as a functional guardrail while allowing the balcony doors to be fully operable.
Poma is known for providing their clients with a high quality product … a very positive experience to work with Poma.
I would highly recommend Poma to anyone in search of an honest quality, "get it done" architectural metals contractor.
Excellent Workmanship and Attention to Detail.
Magnificent Contributions from Poma.
Poma was able to provide a high-quality finished product under a fast-paced schedule.
Poma's timely response to matters of importance is second to none.
The workmanship of the product and the installation was nothing other then perfection. We are so happy with the finished product.

The Pitcher
"My pitching philosophy is simple – keep the ball away from the bat."
– Satchel Paige
Nothing happens in baseball until the pitcher stands on the pitcher's plate and delivers the pitch to the batter. He is the most watched player in the game and the rules that pertain to the pitcher are quite varied and detailed.
The rules regarding the pitcher apply exclusively in relationship to the pitching rubber, also known as the pitcher's plate. When the pitcher is legally disengaged from the pitching rubber, he is considered a fielder. So, the rules that apply to a pitcher are active only when the pitcher is engaging or disengaging the pitching rubber. A pitcher who is on the rubber is often referred to as "in-contact."
The Pitcher's Plate: [Official Rule 2.04]
