8bitrocket Reunion 2011! The original lost 1/3 of 8bitrocket Returns For One Night Only
A couple weeks back Eric Barth (center), the original "lost" 1/3 of 8bitrocket, returned to his origins by visiting Jeff and I back in California. Eric is a Professor Of Engineering at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. Instead of building games, he builds all kind of robots and devices that use alternative inputs for control (i.e. motion sensing). We had not seen each other in 23 years. Back in the day (1979) , Jeff and Eric and I used to create all sorts of cool programs on Eric's Apple IIe computer.
One of our favorite things to do, when we first started to program, was to create ASCII rockets in BASIC that would print out and "launch" up the screen when a the program was executed. These rockets (an example in Flash is on this page) were our first inspiration to start programming computers. This site, and our whole ideal and aesthetic were born out of these boyhood hacks and experimentation. In fact, the name "8-Bit Rocket" comes from these exact "rocket" programs. It was great to finally see our friend from so long ago again, and catch-up.

Let me first start by saying that including and ranking the 64-product "As Seen On TV" bracket was a daunting task.
Sure, we might have forgotten some (you can stop emailing me about Billy Blanks' Tae Bo now.)
But for the most part, I owe a great deal of gratitude to our senior producer Brian Beers, who I think really nailed the rankings.
How do I know? Because there's so much "chalk" entering the Elite Eight this morning (barring a last minute miracle comeback or two before voting ends at 9:30am) that it almost feels like I'm looking at the women's basketball tournament. All four No. 1 seeds are still left, three No. 2 seeds and, accompanied by the shocker, the No. 14 seed Bowflex.
Today, you will be asked to determine the winner of each bracket, who will be given a ticket to the Final Four in our tournament.
The Household Region, sees the No. 1 Clapper, who garnered more than 60 percent of the vote against Mighty Putty, vs. the No. 2 seed Shamwow, which took out OxiClean.
The No. 1 seed George Foreman Grill continued its dominance by besting Ron Popeil's "Set It And Forget It" Showtime Rotisserie, while the No. 2 seed Ginsu Knives had a relatively easy time handing the Magic Bullet in the Kitchen/Food Region.
In the Health/Fitness Region, the Thighmaster -- maybe the weakest number one -- still moved on against what I thought would be a tough Richard Simmons, while Bowflex was looking like our George Mason as it pushed by the original "I've Fallen And I Can't Get Up!" Life Call Alert.
And finally, the No. 1 seed out of the Everything Else Region, Girls Gone Wild, bested John Scherer's Video Professor, which I think had a great run. The No. 2 seed, the Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia took out the No. 3 seed Big Mouth Billy Bass.
Believe it or not, we have an Elite Eight without a single Billy Mays-endorsed product. It almost feels like we've lost our Duke. But that's why you play the game.
Voting will begin in a couple hours, make sure to hit the polls.
We'll have our Final Four set by 9:30 a.m. ET tomorrow.

INDIANAPOLIS --- Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. has achieved a major milestone in the Adaptive Versatile Engine Technology (ADVENT) demonstrator program, and was selected by the U.S. Air Force to proceed with Phase II development. Next steps for this key USAF technology program will include the integration of a variety of advanced technologies, component testing and development of a technology demonstrator core and engine.
This authorization to proceed follows successful completion earlier this year of a series of tests and analysis on a technology demonstrator core and adaptive engine. Designed to provide significant improvement in average fuel consumption, this core and engine will be available for future U.S. military aerospace platforms, including medium or large unmanned air systems.
Phil Burkholder, Chief Operating Officer, Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc., added: "We are delighted to continue to support the shared vision of creating an ADVENT family of next generation engines that deliver the range and persistence required for 21st century aircraft, including unmanned air systems. The relationship with the AFRL is one of our most long standing, and we look forward to continuing our partnership on the ADVENT program that will deliver a step-change in aerospace propulsion technology."
The ADVENT technology demonstrator program, undertaken by Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. (LibertyWorks), is funded by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). ADVENT is part of the Versatile Affordable Advanced Turbine Engines (VAATE) Program, an initiative sponsored by industry and Government partners to advance state of the art turbine engine technology for military and commercial aviation.
1. LibertyWorks®, known officially as Rolls-Royce North American Technologies Inc., has a long history of service to the U.S. military. Based in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S., LibertyWorks - previously known as Allison Advanced Development Co. (AADC) - has contributed technology to the F-35 Lightning II LiftFan and F136 engine; and the IHPTET (Integrated High Performance Turbine Engine Technology) program.
2. In August 2007, Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. was awarded a $296 million contract by the AFRL for work to develop ADVENT technologies that focus on an adaptive engine architecture to provide a 25 percent improvement in average fuel consumption and reduced temperature cooling air for thermal management. The ADVENT engine demonstrator testing is scheduled for 2013.
3. In September 2007, Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. was awarded a $19.6 million contract by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory for work that will be carried out on HEETE. The HEETE technology program is a key element within the U.S. Air Force's Versatile Affordable Advanced Turbine Engines (VAATE) program that aims to provide game-changing propulsion system capabilities with superior fuel efficiency.
4. In 2008, Rolls-Royce and its partners invested nearly $1.4 billion on research and development, two thirds of which had the objective of further improving the environmental aspects of its products. The primary technology investment area is aimed at reducing noise and emissions.

Anyone can apply to become a Lead of a local circle at
Are circle leads sponsored by Facebook in any way?
Circle leads are selected by Facebook via application, but they are not sponsored or endorsed by Facebook in any way.
Are Developer Circles Leads compensated by Facebook?
No, participation as a Developer Circle Lead is completely voluntary.
Does Facebook mandate what topics are discussed or shared as a part of Developer Circles meetups?
No, discussion topics are at the discretion of Developer Circle Leads and they're dictated by the needs, interests and priorities of the community.
What are the topics discussed in Developer Circles?
Topics discussed range from Facebook products, open source technologies, machine learning, artificial intelligence, data science, among others. The topics are determined by what's most relevant to the specific Circle.
What is the incentive for someone to be a Circle Lead?
Developer Circle Leads are people motivated by community organizing, collaboration and sharing their knowledge. While Leads are not incentivized or compensated by Facebook, successful Developer Circles Leads can elevate their profile and influence within their local developer communities.
How do developers qualify for the program?
Anyone with a technical interest in coding or topics related to development is welcome to join Developer Circles. There is no application necessary and membership is completely free. Find your local Developer Circles Facebook Group (
), and click to join. Local Circles Leads are in charge of deciding who can join their local Developer Circles Group.

The Sterling House (part 2) – "Can't you hear me knocking?"
We showed you the brilliant landing platform on the 30th floor of the Sterling House Apartments (18th & JFK) in our previous blog. See it here: It's a bird. It's a plane. No, it's a crane landing platform? (part 1) and I promised to bring you the second part. So here it is…
Overhead sidewalk protection all around this building.
It's a multipurpose overhead protection system (as you will see in the following pics) not only did it have to provide protection for the pedestrians around this busy apartment building but it also had to provide support for our swing staging all around the facade. If you look to the right on the photo below you will see the tops of the motors peeking out above the panels.
And to do this – Superior Scaffold deployed the heavy duty 767 Philly canopy frames with steel beams on top.
One of the biggest challenges was to create a canopy over the entryway to the Sterling House down over the sidewalk. It was quite a distance and at several elevations. To bridge the gap Superior incorporated a series of system scaffold pieces into the overall design to create the perfect overhead sidewalk protecton for the client. It's almost like 2 separate canopies but you can see in the pic below how the one actually rests on top of the other.
This was a creative scaffolding solution to this problem.
And I wanted to point out our two latest safety features. You might have already noticed the long yellow banners attached to the legs of the frame scaffold in the photos. These say "warning tripping hazard" and are in response to the number of people walking the streets while staring down at their cell phones.
And the second safety change we've made recently comes at the bottom of the frame jack where the plate meets the concrete. We now cut off the sides of the wood to fit the size of the jack plate completely – no more overhanging area for people to get caught up on while they walk and text and surf the web. We are always looking for ways to make our scaffolding safer to the general public. We will be constantly updating and improving as new insights become available.
Save some brain power for the Sterling House Pt 3 ("Swing, Swing, Swing") coming real soon!

Superior Scaffold emergency services to the rescue! (20th and JFK)
Superior Scaffold's emergency services crew was called out to the Kennedy House Thursday night after a 25 foot long concrete wrapped beam fell to the ground from the 4th floor parking garage. Superior had a crew on the scene that morning and transformed the sidewalk…
TO THIS… In less than 12 hours!
A 70 foot long, double-wide sidewalk protection system to safely shuttle pedestrians around the building.
Thank goodness there were no injuries. The beam was decorative and not supportive. You can see were it came lose from the facade of the building four stories up.
On first inspection, it looks like one of the connectors might have rusted. City crews can now get safely up to the side of the building. They will be using a high reach to thoroughly inspect the area and then make determinations from there.
It only took one phone call to Tony Pini and several hours later Superior had a plan in place, equipment loaded up and crews ready to roll.
The Center City apartment complex also houses the Brazilian steakhouse restaurant, Chima.
If you have an emergency where you need scaffold, sidewalk protection, canopy or scaffolding – call Superior Scaffold anytime at (215) 743-2200 and ask for Tony P.
We have the fastest response times in the business.

Double Wide, frame vs. system scaffold – when to use
At first glance, what do you see? A double-wide canopy spanning the entire sidewalk?
If you did – you would be correct but there is more to it than meets the eye. You don't think we would just toss up a double wide sidewalk shed using our famous 767-00 "Philly" frames would you? Of course not. What you have to remember is that this a large span we have to cover so the facade resoration can go on overhead. And there are certain regulations that are mandated by our state as to the amount of weight this canonpy must support. In Philadelphia it's 300lb psf.
My first thought was; why didn't they use a system scaffold to bridge the gap? I understand that there would have to be two foot towers to support the beams and that would be a bit of cluster (you know what). But I'm no engineer. So then I thought, why don't I just ask Superior Scaffold top engineer, Mike Leone? After all, he's the man who has to design all these scaffold projects to meet code. I'll let him tell you in his own inimitable way.
"You can make system scaffold work in a situation like this, but you would have to configure it properly and have enough posts/verticals and watch your leg spacing to get 300 psf rating. It would be a lot more pieces than using the canopy frames and would take longer to erect. So this is faster and less expensive and you get the same rating," said Mike. "The City of Philadelphia's Department of Streets Code requires a minimum interior opening of 6 feet. The Philly frame, as the name implies, was made specifically to comply with these codes."
So there you have it. Not only is up to code but can also be faster to erect. I noticed another feature of this type of set up as well. It could help with the pedestrian traffic flow. It creates an isle-like walkway where traffic can flow easily in both directions just like on a highway.
And I just love to see the photos of how they erect these projects. Take a look.
They also painted the wood panels to help match the decor of the building. That's another little added touch that Superior offers. Very cool.
We at Superior are always spanning the globe for unique scaffolding solutions to bring you.
That reminds me… Cue the music. "Spanning the globe to bring you the constant variety of scaffold… the thrill of erection… and the agony of having to take it down… This is Philly's Wide World of Scaffold! Sorry, it just brought me back there for a minute.
If you have a large sidewalk or area that needs overhead protection (canopy, sidewalk shed) call Superior Scaffold at (215) 743-2200 or hit the website at www.superiorscaffold.com today.
Amtrak rides the Superior Scaffold rails around the entire building
Superior Scaffold is proud to be providing scaffolding support for Amrak's renovation of their 30th St. Station in downtown Philadelphia. The historic building that opened in 1933 will get a much needed facelift. It's an incredible looking structure and can you just imagine what it's going to be like when it's finished? Wow…
Amtrak wants to make the neoclassical 30th Street Station a more welcoming gateway to West Philadelphia and Center City. The 30th Street Station handles 120 Amtrak trains, 960 SEPTA trains, and 26 NJ Transit trains each weekday. More than four million Amtrak passengers went through the station last year.
Superior's first order of business was to erect canopies and sidewalk protection around the entire building – and that's a good sized building. The station is a hustling, bustling metropolis all of its own with cars, buses, and lots of people all the time. Those are just some of the challenges faced when erecting scaffolding around a busy building like this. For that reason, most of the work was done at night as pedestrian and vehicle traffic was diminished.
I love this part of the description because we actually get to see BEFORE and AFTER shots of the scaffolding (something we don't always get). But this gives you an insider's look at just what goes into scaffolding an historic building like this. It also lets us see some the challenges crews face.
The jersey barriers on each side were quite the problem. Superior had to scaffold around all the physical obstacles, lamp posts, bollards, parking meters, taxi cabs, pedestrians.
All of 30th Street Station is hollow underneath so Amtrak required Superior to build canopies on top of barriers to distribute weight load.
This was done so scaffolding can be installed on top of the canopy to do facade restoration.
Amtrak even specified the type and color of paint…a beautiful soft green. Customizing the look and color of a canopy is an option that many of our clients choose.
This is going to be an 8 – 10 year project.
Superior had to construct overhead protection at different elevations for buses, cars and pedestrians.
The biggest challenge was finding jersey barriers with one flat side as Amtrak mandated.
Fortunately Rob Buckley from Buckley Construction had what the doctor ordered. 177 – 12′ barriers.
Next challenge was setting them in place. We used a lull and a unique clamp made just for lifting the barriers.
We also had to cut many of them to fit into Amtrak's layout (parking meters, doors, etc.) It's not easy cutting concrete barriers!
Some shots to give you an idea of the scope of work with the canopies and overhead protection.
Some of the detailed work that goes into doing an extensive job like this.
These structures are just the first phase in an extensive renovation. They have to be strong enough to support additional scaffoling when they start renovating the facade of the building.
Superior provides scaffolding for renovations, inspections, new construction – just about any type of project.

Superior Scaffold Shoring up the Mid-Atlantic
Can you say needle beam? I just love that word. Needle beam, needle beam, needle beam.
Did one just appear?
It did. (See the photos below.)
That is a needle beam. I know, like me, you probably thought it would resemble an actual needle but no. It's just a term that the engineers like to throw around loosely anytime a beam needs to be put through something for support.
Here's the actual definition of needle beam from the free dictionary: in shoring, the horizontal cross timber which goes through the wall or a pier, and upon which the weight of the wall rests, when a building is shored up to allow of alterations in the lower part.
Well that makes sense. So now look at the picture. You see the needle beams?
A store in the Hillview Shopping Center in Cherry Hill, NJ wanted to expand the front entrance to their building so the call went out to Superior Scaffold, who are experts with all things shoring by the way (shameless plug). So the grand wizard of engineering, Bob Robinson, devised this nifty bit of shoring using 20 kip heavy duty post shores to support the exterior walls with needle beams sticking through.
And on the inside, Superior used their hi-load shoring frames with aluminum joists to support the bar joists.
How about that? I just realized that I'm going to have to do a post just dealing with scaffold terminology. Kind of like the urban dictionary for scaffolding. I'll get to that so you all know what 20 Kip means, and what Bar Joists are, etc.
Anyway, the job went swimmingly and the client was thrilled. And I am happy to report that there were no Beetlejuice sightings or random appearances of needle beams either.
Needle beam, needle beam, needle beam….
Triple the action for Superior Scaffold at the Old Dublin Pike Bridge in Doylestown, PA.
The stone arch bridge was originally constructed back in 1875 and then rehabbed in 1947. So it was time for a reconditioning – seems that this old bridge still has over 5,000 cars travel over her every day in Doylestown, PA. Crews needed a way to support the structure and to get into the arches to repair the stones and masonry while keeping the road open above.
This was the challenge for Superior Scaffold.
First order of business was diverting the river through two of the arches so one could be fairly dry while the scaffolding was erected. Then, once that was built, the water had to be diverted again so the second, and then third arch could be constructed.
The next challenge was how to best shore up the arches so work could be completed but also support enough weight for heavy machinery traveling the road over head. Superior engineer Bob Robinson decided on 20k scaffold frames to hold up the shoring beams and wood supports. It allowed the road to remain open for business while construction crews completed the work below.
It's a unique way to solve the problem and keep a major thoroughfare open.
The job went off without a hitch and the mighty river is flowing once again and cars are happily traveling over the old bridge in Buck County.

Superior Scaffold to provide scaffolding support for Philadelphia Energy Solutions turnaround at old Sunoco refinery.
Superior Scaffold has entered into a deal with Philadelphia Energy Solutions (PES), to provide scaffolding support for a turnaround at their large Philadelphia plant. This is the Point Breeze refining complex – which is the old Sunoco plant in South Philly.
Philadelphia Energy Solutions (PES) is the longest continuously operating refinery on the East Coast, processing 330,000 barrels of crude oil per day into various refined products.
Superior will provide all of the necessary scaffolding support during this shutdown. "Our guys are currently working with PES planning and organizing the massive turnaround so everything goes smoothly," said Lou Collins, Superior Scaffold estimator. "We anticipate about a 12 week pre-to-post timeframe to complete this job."
For those who don't know, a turnaround at a refinery is a planned, periodic shut down (total or partial) of a refinery plant or unit to perform maintenance, repair and overhaul operations and to inspect, test and replace process materials and equipment.
Superior will be working with the exchangers, drums, towers, internal reactors and Re-gen and much more all around the complex.
We are proud to bring our 50 years plus of refinery experience to one of Philadelphia's finest companies. And will keep you posted as we move through this turnaround process.

Amazing uses for scaffolding. Calpine energy turbine repair.
Every now and then, a really cool use for scaffolding comes across my desk, and this is one of those times. Maybe I'm just genuinely curious as to how stuff works but I thought I'd pass this along.
This is the top of giant electric turbine at the Calpine Energy, Delta, PA power plant. The plant is a state-of-the-art, combined cycle, power generating plant powered mainly by natural gas. The plant consists of 8 electric generators – and these photos are of one of those turbines! Basically, these gigantic turbines spin around at amazing speed to produce electricity for cities and towns.
Calpine called Superior Scaffold out to construct support scaffolding around one of the giant Siemens V84.2 turbines so the top could be removed and stored while work was done inside. As you can see from the photos, just the top of the turbine is enormous. Once inside the turbine, crews had to pull the entire thing apart to find the problem. Once that was addressed workers had to reassemble the entire unit – but this time they welded counter weights on the turbine to keep it spinning up to a tolerance factor of 1000th of and inch.
It always amazes me at the different uses for scaffold – and this is just another in a long list of cool applications.
For a more technical description of how their plant converts energy read this blurb from their website.
The plant works like this: Steam for the steam turbines is generated in heat recovery steam generators – unfired boilers that get their heat from hot gas exhaust leaving the gas turbines. The combustion turbines, which primarily burn natural gas, can also run on low-sulfur diesel fuel oil. When combined, these two power cycles (the gas turbine and the boiler/steam turbine) create a highly fuel-efficient plant, consuming significantly less fuel than needed by a traditional fossil-fired boiler/steam turbine generator plant. This conversion spins the turbines which in turn convert steam into electricity for Delta, PA customers.

A unique before and after look at Boathouse Row repair, Philadelphia, PA
Superior Scaffold at Bachelors Barge Club (Est 1853), Philadelphia, PA.
Bachelors boathouse #6, (built in 1893) is repairing part of the exterior of their house on Philadelphia's historic Boathouse row. Superior provided canopy protection for the side of the building while erecting system scaffold above – so crews could get access to the spots that needed repairing without hindering daily operations.
This is a unique opportunity to see a before and after view of the repair process. As you can see in the first series of photos taken by Superior estimator, Pat McAndrew, there are large cracks in the facade of the structure. And you can see just where they are located on the building and where crews will have to get access to affect repairs.
It's Pat's job to estimate the amount of man and materials it will take to finish the repairs. And in many instances, it's also his job to configure the best scaffolding approach to access the job.
Here, he chose 767 Philly frames to construct a canopy (sidewalk shed) over the entryway so Bachelors members could use the building on a daily basis while work continued overhead. This is a great way to keep business as usual for the buildings being worked on while creating a very stable platform for the work crews to complete their tasks above.
Pat also chose a series of system scaffold on top of the canopy to create different levels, in essence, for better access. He also added a hoist and access ladders on the ends giving the scaffolding two separate levels. It's all very stable and easy to get equipment up and down.
We will provide you with the finished photographs once the work is complete.
If you need an estimate for anything scaffold related (scaffolding, scaffold services, shoring, facade work, inspection) just give Pat a call. He's one of the best in the business. (215) 743-2200.
A brief history of Bachelors Barge Club.
The club originally housed its boats in a wooded shack on the north side of the Schuylkill River constructed for the imposing sum of $67.85. Today its over 150 members row out of a stately brick boathouse constructed in 1893 on the original site, now known as #6 Boathouse Row. The boathouse is also home to four high school rowing programs and the Wharton Graduate Crew.
Bachelors Barge has hosted high school rowing on a continuous basis since 1948 when Lower Merion initiated a rowing program. Lower Merion was subsequently followed by Harriton High School, The Baldwin School, and Conestoga High School in that order. Wharton Graduate is the most recent tenant to join Bachelors Barge however they have historical ties to the club going back to 1864 when George W. Wharton was an active member.
Home of Drexel crew.
Boathouse Row is a historic site located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on the east bank of the Schuylkill River, just north of the Fairmount Water Works and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. It consists of a row of 15 boathouses housing social and rowing clubs and their racing shells. Each of the boathouses has its own history, and all have addresses on both Boathouse Row and Kelly Drive (named after famous Philadelphia oarsman John B. Kelly, Jr.).

opis organizácie
Young Naturfriends Thuringia is the independent Children and Youthorganisation of "NaturFreunde Deutschlands", Verband für Umweltschutz, sanften Tourismus, Sport und Kultur, Landesverband Thüringen e.V. and is working in the field of Youthwork since 1990.
The Focus of the organizations works lies in out-of-school education, participation and sociopolitical education, youth work, voluntary dedication for society and environment (voluntary services) and international exchange.
To empower children and youngster to take part in society, to shape their own livelihood and environment is the main concern of the work of the organization. Children and youngsters are being motivated and qualified to step up for their own interests and to shape their environment, to take part in politics and society, in small as well as in the big context, local and international.
For more than 15 years now the organization hosts bilateral and international youth exchanges, as well as holiday activities, during which the participants are strengthened and actively involved in shaping the program, articulation their interests and implementing these. Voluntary leaders, all trained youth leaders, organize the program and work with the method of peer education.
With the help of regular Seminar weekends and out-of-school project days about different topics, the organization promotes target audience specific education. Topics can be for example democracy and participation, sustainability and nature, intercultural learning or conflict management and team training.
Participation in the youth work is elementary for every action and is lived in boards as well as in open and creative forms. An example would be the annual "Zukunftswerkstatt" as a planning meeting, during which the members and volunteers of the organization can decide about program and also financial priorities for the coming year.
Since 2007 the organization hosts the Thuringian Children Summit every two years. The Children Summit is an official part of the Thuringian "Landesjugendförderplan" (plan of every youthwork action in all of the federal state of Thuringia) and as a major event important for all of Thuringia, during which about 100 young people of the age of 10 to 15 come together. They discuss their ideas about a better Thuringia with politicians and officials. The slogan of it is "Kinder reden – Erwachsene hören zu" (Children talk – Adults listen). The idea of the Children Summit bases on the foundation of the UN-Convention on the Rights of a Child, which strengthens the participation of Children and youngsters in their living environment.
In 2013 the organization recieved the German local sustainability prize "Zeitzeichen N" in the youth category for the project Children Summit. The Thuringian Ministry for social matters, family and health furthermore names the Children summit under their "best practice" examples for children and youth participation.
Since 2012 the organization furthermore conducts a Concept for out-of-school education "Mitmischen leicht gemacht! Demokratiebildung für Kinder und Jugendliche" (Getting in to the act easily! Democray education for children and young adults) successfully in Thuringia.
Participation, democracy and sustainability belong together in the self-concept of the organization. A conscious use and contact with the environment and its resources is a cross section topic in all activities. The Topic of sustainability is mediated in a way that focuses on the way of life of the participant. This also shows in the implementation of exchanges and holiday camps in which topics like sustainable energy and livelihood, healthy diet, sustainable economy and mobility are part of the yearly foci.
Since 2006 the Young Naturefriends Thuringia are a host in the "Thüringen Jahr" (voluntary ecological service) and right now as well in the ecological "Bundesfreiwilligendiesnt" (National voluntary service). In this project the pedagogical consultant and volunteer youth leaders work together with up to 40 young people. The Educational seminars include different topics like for example "green jobs", ecological policy or participation and conflict management.

How to Revive Worn Clothes and Shoes
These quick tricks will spiff things up―and save you money.
Burcu Asvar
Pants and Skirts
- For pants that cinch at the waist or are too short, have the waistband removed, so that they fit more loosely (and lower) around the hips.
- To improve the break across your feet, or to detaper pant legs, have a one-inch slit made at the bottoms of the inseams.
- Shorten skirts to hit at or around the knee; it's a more classic length.
- A good cobbler can work miracles. But check the cost of resoling―a new pair of shoes might be cheaper.
- Have heels cut down if they're uncomfortably high.
- Rain-damaged shoes can be dyed back to their original color.
- Have sleeves removed or made three-quarter length for a more modern cut.
- Add darts to taper a boxy top or a vintage shirt with a great print.
- If there's a hole in a favorite sweater, save it by having it rewoven.
- Defuzz a pilly garment with a fabric shaver. Try the Brookstone fabric shaver, $25, brookstone.com.

Just about everyone who is part of some type of family unit is not, by life insurance industry standards, adequately protected by their current level of life insurance.
In fact, on average, consumers are about $1.2 million short, according to Nationwide Financial.
Given that life insurance has been sold for decades, this is a sobering discovery. But it does leave open opportunity for brokers, agents and advisors selling life insurance policies.
See also: Helping your clients understand their life value
The life insurance gap was identified in a new poll of 1,100 people between the ages of 24 and 66 by the Columbus, Ohio-based insurer. All of the people polled were married or had a life partner; some had dependents and none were retired. Household incomes were $24,000 and up.
Nationwide defines full life insurance protection as having enough coverage to replace one's income upon death. By this measure, only 2 percent of respondents were fully insured.
"The average consumer surveyed will earn roughly $1.5 million before they retire and holds about $300,000 in life insurance coverage, leaving them about $1.2 million short of replacing their income with life insurance," Nationwide said in a release.
That's a disaster waiting to happen, said Eric Henderson, senior vice president of life insurance and annuities for Nationwide Financial.
"Many Americans have the false perception that they have an adequate life insurance plan in place," Henderson said. "When they actually do the math, the true picture may become clearer, and hopefully motivate action."
The survey reported that just 29 percent of respondents believe they can afford enough life insurance to replace their household income. However, most consumers think it costs a lot more to buy full insurance coverage that it actually does, Nationwide said.
Citing research by the Life Insurance Marketing and Research Association, Nationwide said "consumers generally overestimate the cost of life insurance by nearly three times."
At the same time, respondents showed a serious lack of understanding about the value of their current life insurance. Two-thirds of respondents said they thought they had enough insurance to replace the earnings generated for the rest of their working days. Fifty-five percent said they were pretty sure their coverage would replace their spouse or partner's income.
"Despite this relative confidence, when asked how long their family could maintain its standard of living if a breadwinner died, 62 percent either don't know, or think they could do so for just four years or less," Nationwide said. Some 36 percent insisted their family could adequately fund the retirement of the surviving spouse or partner.
Where do people get their ideas about the value of their insurance policies? Only 35 percent said they got help from an insurance agent or financial advisor to determine how much life insurance to buy. Another 20 percent admitted they just pulled a number out of thin air.
Clearly, Nationwide believes those seek professional guidance will leave their families far better situated than those who wing it on insurance coverage. Another finding of the survey showed just how close most of the respondents are to having sufficient coverage.
They were asked how much they would be willing to spend a month "to ensure their family can maintain its standard of living indefinitely following the death of a bread winner."
Surprisingly, the average answer — $99 — would do the trick.
For this amount, a healthy 35-year-old man can purchase a 20-year term life policy worth more than $2.3 million. A healthy 35-year-old woman can purchase more than $2.6 million in coverage. This is more than is needed to wipe out the average life insurance income replacement gap.
Thus, it appears up to the insurance industry to do a better job of explaining to consumers the realities of life insurance coverage.
"Advisors and insurance agents may be able to motivate clients by helping them understand the implications of their income replacement gap," Henderson said. "We know that consumers don't respond well to scare tactics, however, they may be relieved to learn that the solution is not as scary as they may expect. Even if they don't feel compelled to buy enough life insurance to replace all of their income, most consumers can afford enough to put a significant dent in their income replacement gap. That's at least a step in the right direction."

Doctor Who: Get the Look – your TV fashion guide
Want to rock the Doctor's style? Here are our top tips for recreating the looks of Peter Capaldi, David Tennant and Matt Smith - you'll need to provide your own sonic screwdriver…
The three most recent Doctors – Tennant, Smith and Capaldi – give you a great variety of styles. Moving through a range of age groups, Smith's look is great for 20-year-olds, whereas Tennant's can be styled for the 30s to 40s and Capaldi is great for 40 and up. But of course, this is all interchangeable and if it suits your personal style then go for it whatever your age! I have put together simple style books to give you alternatives to create your favourite modern Doctor's look.
David Tennant
Pictures: BBC
Tennant's style as the Doctor is simple yet well put together. The suit and trainers combination gives him an "indie boy" style that brings freshness to the costume. He has a romantic vibe about him too, which fits well with the look. He had two costumes, the one shown here and a brown pinstripe suit. I have chosen to use the blue suit: it is much more versatile and easier to pull off.
Here are my top tips for getting Tennant's look:
Wool Jacket H&M £ 79.99, Converse All Star Low Maroon Canvas Office £44.99, Tie in Ottoman ASOS £8, Suit Trousers H&M £34.99, Tribe Trench Coat, Selected Homme John Lewis £90.
Think first date, smart casual, that's when you'll hit the right key with this look. Buying your suit in separate sections gives you the benefit of playing with shape and texture. I really like this wool jacket from H&M: it has that heavy quality you just know will sit well on the shoulders, and a good slim-cut shape which echoes Tennant's look. Converse shoes are a real favourite of mine. I normally like to try to find brand alternatives, but I would always go for genuine Converse. They are durable and really well priced and I have always been disappointed by cheaper alternatives.
Tennant also sports a Camel coat, which I haven't featured in the images, as his particular coat is very heavy and much better suited to winter. A great alternative for spring/summer would be a trenchcoat. There are loads of great styles out there, but this one caught my eye. The lines are clean and, worn undone over the rest of the outfit, the boxy shape will complement the slim-fit cut of the blazer. And hey, you need to have a lightweight coat to keep on hand with the unpredictable weather – drenched is not a good look!
Matt Smith
Pictures: Radio Times / Matt Holyoak
Smith's style made the Doctor's look even younger. He rocks the hipster vibe here with a look you could easily see on an art student in a bar in Shoreditch. There are some real fashion staples here – depending on your personal style and age you can take elements and make a confident fashion statement.
Here are my top tips to get Smith's hipster look:
Blazer H&M £59.95 (Coming soon, available in June), Bow Tie ASOS £6, Red Houndstooth Braces Topman £16, Jacob Boots Superdry £89.99, Black Cropped Stretch Skinny Jeans Topman £38.
H&M have some really great pieces this spring/summer, and this blazer looks to be worth the wait. It's a great colour and I particularly like the elbow patches. With the trousers you need to go tight and cropped, which makes these Topman jeans just right. If you prefer a slim leg to a skinny you can go for a rolled ankle instead, which will look just as good. I have decided on a brown boot over a black: it freshens the look up for the warmer weather and I really love these boots from Superdry. I am not normally a fan of their styles, but these boots are just that little something different and look very comfortable.
Peter Capaldi
Picture: BBC
The new and widely talked about costume for Peter Capaldi brings a new dimension to the modern Doctor. Suited to his age, this skinhead look brings a harder and more serious vibe to the Doctor. Crombie coat and Dr Marten boots cements it as British born and bred.
Here are my alternative picks to getting the Capaldi look:
Navy Crombie Smart Coat Topman £150, Pocket Square ASOS £5, Selected Homme Dublin Boots ASOS £95, Textured Cardigan Next £32, Rolando Sturlini Brogue Boots with Wing Tips ASOS £180.
Of course, a real Crombie coat would be the ideal choice. With prices at around £795 it is probably out of reach for most of us, but here is the link if you want to have a look! This alternative from Topman is a great option. It has a very similar shape and OK, it doesn't have the glorious red lining, but you can add that splash of colour in other ways, like a pocket square or a slim silk scarf. I have chosen to steer away from Dr Martens as they are very heavy duty and for me a bit too much for everyday wear. I like the Selected Homme Dublin Boots: they look so soft and easy to wear, and much lighter for a warmer day. Team them with a pair of single-pleat navy trousers and the crispest white shirt you own.

THIS WEEK'S RANDOM QUESTION: Name any 5 books from your "to be read" pile (even if it's a "virtual" pile).
Welcome to Great Bookish News. Check out the news that caught our eye this past week and what we're looking forward to…
Liam Quinn is talented, gorgeous, and one of the biggest movie stars in the world.
He's also the only man Elissa Holt has ever truly loved.
After being out of her life for six years, he and his gorgeous fiancé are set to star in the new Broadway show Elissa is stage managing. The only trouble is, when late night rehearsals bring Elissa and Liam together, the line between what is and what could have been gets blurred, and one moment of weakness will lead to a scandal that echoes around the world.
Elissa knows that falling for Liam again would be a tragedy in the making, but as any good romantic will tell you, love doesn't always follow the script.
Being a huge fan of Leisa's work is so easy! Seriously the talent of this woman knows no bounds. She has this way of telling a story that touches on every emotion, and doesn't always take the easiest path to get to happily ever after. Her characters feel more real that way. Elissa Holt's brother Ethan completely owns me, because his younger self was all brooding and hot. That doesn't not mean I don't have a place in my heart for Liam Quinn.

Lesbian, bisexual and queer women, if you're over 50 years old then you need to think about the health of your colon! We are often told to get mammograms and Pap tests, but we cannot forget that we need to get screened for colon cancer as well. Sometimes talking about your colon can be uncomfortable or embarrassing, but it's incredibly important that we take care of ourselves and get screened—make your bottom your top priority!
Colon cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers for women in Canada and lesbian, bisexual and queer women are not immune. While we don't have firm statistics on the rates of colon cancer screening among lesbian, bisexual and queer women, we do know that our communities are less likely to get screened and less likely to go to the doctor.
Talking about cancer doesn't have to be scary. When caught early, colon cancer is 90% curable!

Hi, I had a couple of queries:
1. Is there any way to limit the number of orders for which the affiliate gets commission. For example, the affiliate gets commission only for the first order placed by the customer referred, and not all orders?
2. Is a user tagged to an affiliate based on visit or on registration or on order placed. For example, a user clicks on an affiliate link and lands on the website, browses, and leaves. The next day the user clicks on a different affiliate's link, lands on the website, and registers. The third day user clicks on a different affiliate's link, lands on the website, logs in into their account, and places an order. Which affiliate would get the commission?

1. Is there any way to limit the number of orders for which the affiliate gets commission. For example, the affiliate gets commission only for the first order placed by the customer referred, and not all orders?
you are adding commission in order status change - you have there checkbox - so you can add it only for first order manually.
2. Is a user tagged to an affiliate based on visit or on registration or on order placed. For example, a user clicks on an affiliate link and lands on the website, browses, and leaves. The next day the user clicks on a different affiliate's link, lands on the website, and registers. The third day user clicks on a different affiliate's link, lands on the website, logs in into their account, and places an order. Which affiliate would get the commission?
3. Try demo - there is all. You can test it by yourself.
Have a nice day.

By when is it planned to be available on OC 3.xx Seen from comments that many people have requested for this since more than 1 year. Thanks.
pctechcomputers 06.04.2019
Other few required changes are below,
6- Option to allow for giving the referred customer a discount when they checkout and also to give the referral customer store credit or rewards points.
7- Option to set time frame to allow till when referral customer will get rewarded anytime their referred customers make an order.
8- Orders in the admin backend have also been upgraded to show who received a customer referral credit for an order and allow you to add/remove the credit from an order.
9- New (referred) customers can get discount automatically if they use the same link as shared by the Referrer otherwise there should a an option to enter "Referral Code" manually if Referred customer is not coming on website through the link.
Please reply here and also to my email id firstname.lastname@example.com so that i can decide quickly.

Can the commission that generate by this extensions change with reward points?
Thank you!
DEAWid 05.07.2018
No. Balance isn't reward point. It's custom value for each customer. Really try demo, you will know more.
hsieh 04.07.2018
Excuse me
The commission generated is cash or bonus points?
Thank you!
DEAWid 04.07.2018
No one .. it's called balance . It's new column in customer table.
hsieh 04.07.2018
Excuse me
Where is the cash and bonus points selected?
Thank you!
DEAWid 04.07.2018
Balance is in ref page in account.
Can be used as payment method in order.

Yes, manually in admin - customer - edit .. there is ref_id.
weblack 24.08.2017
I am interested in this module.
So I have a question.

2. If the customer wishes to cancel from the customer, is the point given to the introducer automatically deleted?
I am happy to hear from you.
DEAWid 24.08.2017
Only main currency and second point - you can remove ref_id in admin for any customers.

Ranjeet_BrandBag 07.04.2017
Hello Deawid,
Will this module support to affiliate business? I meant If i have referral balance in my account I want purchase a products on our partners sites, is it possible to spend my balance amount there?
Ranjeet_BrandBag 07.04.2017
Also, please confirm that can balance from my account can be transferred to bank or any other payment gateway?
DEAWid 07.03.2017
1. ref code = customer_id
2. yes, to custoemr balance - no to reward points. also you must approve order in admin .. unfer order status is checkbox to give provfit.
3. the same question as 2. ... so read 2 again.
4. you can user banace as payment method in checkout. if order total is <= balance, then you will see that option . if balance is less then order total, it's hidden.
Sorry, but all this 4 questions you can try in demo.

Hi there, does the module -
1. support multi stores so that each store owner can see its own referrals, but can not see other store's referrals?
2. support multi language?
3. is it possible that the system/module can generate a unique special link or QRcode for each referral/sub referral so that there is no need to submit referral ID?

step 1:
Cutomer (A) has signed up with no refferal id:
step 2:
Now customer (A) has published his link on facebook and his friend Customer (B) used that link to signed up and placed his order of $20.
----------------------Below Not Working with me-----------
Step 3:
Email Notifications:
Customer (A) should get email that conragulations Customer B has Signed up under him.
You got commision from customer B worth of e.g $2.00.
step 4 :
Customer A now can use this $2.00 commission to place an order with us.
but its not working.

Case1: Is it possible, if someone enters wrong ref id: then the system shows an error: please enter correct ref id or enter 0 if you don't have correct referrer id..??
Case3: Will you help us in integrating into that theme or do you have documentation which suggest us which files we need to edit...
DEAWid 07.09.2016
@webonretail: Hi:
1. if someone insert incorect ref id it's zero - yes, because imagine this situation: your latest customer have id 2655
and if someone register and set 2656, he referrer to himself .. so for that it's zero.
2. in admin - customer - edit .. there you see customer's referral id
3. you must try it..
webonretail 07.09.2016
I am interested in your extension; just have few queries:
1. If someone enters wrong referral id then why it is mapped to ZERO??
2. Where should i see the report of all refereed members?
3. Whether your module can be integrated in R.Gen Theme..??
Awaiting revert;
maddymadhu 07.09.2016

Looks nice the referrer program BUT I have very specific products, meaning I have 8 key products and each has a different fixed commission level. (i.e: Product 1 is 10%, Product 2 is 5% etc). How will this system of different commisison levels work using your system.

And can the administrator resets the earn data for a specific user? If the user has 45 dollars to receive, the shop administrator pays the 45 (bank transfer or whatever) dollars and resets the money to receive to zero.

This module is just what I need, but!
* Referral ID: If you aren't invited, enter "0"
is shit, why do they want to input 0?? why cat it be just empty, and checked in controller?
I dont like ids being customer numbers, can it be something special? like a 5 digit code or simular?
Why cant you input referal code on checkout page? it throws and error by th way..
There also should be more statistics in customer page
DEAWid 07.09.2013
404 I can't see.. http://deawid.com/opencart/multi-referral-module/admin
here is everything ok :)
(1) no email .. only registration ond sponsor see all referrals on his account page/referrer
(2) yes this is possible, but If you want I can create to you for a little charge..
paisleybay 07.09.2013
Hi DEAWid
I am interested in this module - but while it is clear from your backend admin demo, how to set profits for different levels, the front end demo URL is giving 404 error!
(1) Not sure how the front end works, that is, is there a referral email form which customers send to prospective new customers (referees)? If yes, is the Sponsor ID generated auto & sent to referee in email?
(2) Is it also possible to credit smaller number of points (profit) if referees, if they just register & don't buy yet?
Thanks, in advance, for your reply.

Hi DEAWid,
I'd like to discuss with you if you can develop a "request payout" feature for this module. For example if a user reaches $50 then he/she should be able to request for the payout. Let me know how we can discuss about this.
retelcz 07.09.2013
Zdravím, koupili jsme tvůj modul a jsme spokojeno, vše je téměř v pohodě, jen logika výpočtů provizí je trochu jiná, než bychom potřebovali. Bylo by možné se nějak domluvit, že byste s tím nejspíš neměl takový problém, jelikož je to vaše práce, nám by to trvalo spoustu hodin. Zdarma to samozřejmě nechceme. Bylo by to podle pravidel, podle kterých funguje spousta multilevelových společností.
Pokud můžete, tak se prosím ozvěte na tomasocadly(a)gmail.com a už se nějak domluvíme. Díky

Having some issues with a clean install http://www.classlessfan.com Open registration, you'll see the error. This is a test site to get it to work. It's currently not working at http://www.funraisin.biz which is what the module was purchased for. It's not establishing the referral id in the database and likely not working at all other than displaying the fields without errors.

@paketero: Hello and sorry for late .. Today I create new version of this module. You can see all on demo site. And for you I try on 188.8.131.52 - I added this version to download.
imageproz 07.09.2012
I would like to know if you have or can create an extension for opencart v 18.104.22.168 that will allow customers to create a code that they can share with friends for discounts to the shop.
What I need.
1. Customer ability to create a code and share to up to 10 friends
2. Code will give customer % or Fixed amount off their order set by admin.
3. Code to work as an additional discount if it is their third order in addition to coupon codes
4. Code name to show up in totals as "Group Discounts"
5. Track Sales with Group Discounts
Please let me know if this can be done and how much it will cost to create. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you.
you can email me at email@example.com
paketero 07.09.2012
Does this would work on opencart 184.108.40.206?
Benny 07.09.2012
Hi DEAWid,
Can I see your demo admin side ? I find no referral commission or balance transaction record or report on the admin side for each individual referrers. So how do admin track each individual or customer group referral or total referral record commission balance - for cash payout, exchange for reward points or later product purchase ?. No Admin Sales Report to show customer purchase amount with nett amount balance after less commission amount payout , On referrer side, it should show profit balance with detail like from which downline referrers or referral ID. How to delete the blacklist customer or replace by other customer referrer without affecting other customer transaction profit balance record - (need admin record for tracking )? No email record send to the customer upline referrers for transaction taken place. It should have flexible referral profit plan for certain group of customers like retail group A, B, C,etc but not for D, E, etc or wholesaler .
DEAWid 07.09.2012
EDITED: multi-level referrers, choice if fixed or percentuage profit, set min order price for profit :)

I'm linking to Madison.com, which gives a verbatim quote from Koval but not from Baldeh.
The City Council vote 19-1 to approve of spending $350,000 from the city's reserve fund to hire to hire another expert to study the Madison police, which — as we discussed here yesterday —Koval strongly opposed. Koval had written:
(To [vote against the spending] would be tantamount to "treason" for those who wring their hands worried about currying favor with a small group of people who protest/blog/criticize the MPD at every turn. The "perpetually offended" of Madison who use their small but vocal numbers to dictate agendas has an incredible grip on this City... but no one dares to raise a voice lest they be marginalized in the PC world of Madison....)...Then, at the meeting, Baldeh said he felt unsafe because the Chief of Police had his gun.
To the Common Council: You are being watched. And be on notice: this is a pre-emptive first strike from me to you. I am going to push back hard when MPD is constantly used as a political punching bag and you are nowhere to be found....
At my age and at this stage of a sun setting career, I am not checking my polling numbers. I am doing my job and trying to live up to my credo to "GSD!' (Get "Stuff" Done)!
ADDED: I transcribed Baldeh's statement myself, from the video (beginning at 4:59:30):
So, I, first of all, just want to say that for my one year and a couple of months I have been in this council, this is the first time I've seen it so tense. And so this is the first time, actually, I've seen the police chief behave in a way that, in my opinion, I felt kind of not feeling comfortable with him sitting behind me with a gun....ALSO: At 5:13:45, we hear Alderwoman Rebecca Kemble questioning Koval about his use of the phrase "pre-emptive first strike":
I have the utmost respect for the police chief.... But the behavior of the chief tonight, honestly, is unimaginable. I was totally afraid for him to be behind me with a gun. I have said to some of my colleagues, if... we have to question him, then we better ask him to hand in the gun until when we are done.
When you tell an elected body you are doing a "pre-emptive first strike" against us... I'm just asking you to really think about how that felt to us, when some of us are out there promoting and supporting the work of your department and you're using this military language as if we're your enemies.Koval's response is that he's familiar with the way the council meetings go, with the members allowed to make their "cut-and-run comments" and he has no opportunity to respond: "I'm tired of always being on the recipient end, without any sense of cover or timely rebuttal."
Kemble responds: "You are the guys with guns, and it's up to us to interpret" what pre-emptive first strike means. And: "Quite frankly, in this era of Trump, that's chilling."

A Note to the Pug
Dear Sweet and Fluffy Pug,
I just had to write and thank you so terribly much that after you had a violent spell of #2 you felt the need to grab a sock from the laundry and put it on top to somewhat hide your mess from me this morning. You are way too stinking smart for a dog and as very generous as that was of you it then left me to clean one more thing you destroyed.
With Love,
Posted by a boy a girl and a pug

LOL! That face is too adorable. And probably keeps him from getting the full 'spankin' he deserves :)

Francis Howard Greenway (20 November 1777 – September 1837) was an iconic Australian colonial architect, or so Wikipedia (correctly) says. It is sad what happened to the great convict architect in later life, even if he may posthumously enjoy, as a one-time convicted forger, having once featured on the Australian ten dollar note.
There are apparently 49 of his buildings still standing in the greater Sydney area, Hyde Park Barracks and St James Church being but two of the most known.
Sadly, not all his work is so well preserved, notably Cleveland House in Surry Hills, whose history I detailed in James O'Brien on Surry Hills (August 2007). I have one picture here too on Surry Hills 5, where I mention it is possibly the oldest house still standing in Sydney. You may see it clearly marked on the map shown at Sights of old Sydney 2: Moore Park boundary post 1833.
Here it is on the afternoon of 1 December 2008. I am so saddened that this lovely building is in such poor condition. See more over the fold.
