MISSISSAUGA, ON, April 1, 2014 /CNW/ - After introducing Canadians to the Joy of Finger Cooking two years ago, Boston Pizza today announced it's changing the pizza delivery game once again with the re-introduction of Reverse Delivery, an idea first conceptualized by the brand in the 1970s.
With Reverse Delivery, Boston Pizza's 358 locations across the country will begin delivering guests to the pizza, rather than the pizza to the guest.
"Boston Pizza's extensive market research revealed that many Canadians need a place to go to meet up with friends and watch the big game, but they don't always have a way of getting there," explained Perry Schwartz, Director of Communications, Boston Pizza International. "As Canada's largest casual dining chain, we realized that it's up to us to reverse this disturbing trend, so we dug back into our files and found that the solution was right in front of us all along."
To order a Reverse Delivery, Canadians will simply have to dial the number for the Boston Pizza location in their area in reverse – for instance, instead of 416-733-3172, guests in North York, ON would instead call 271-333-7614 to place their order.
Boston Pizza expects to have its new Reverse Delivery service fully implemented for the start of the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs on Wednesday, April 16. In preparation for the national launch, Boston Pizza is now recruiting Reverse Delivery specialists.
"There is no better way to enjoy the playoffs than in a lively sports bar with other hockey fans," explains Schwartz. "Boston Pizza's Reverse Delivery option makes it easier than ever to join friends and fans to watch the game on big screen TVs and enjoy delicious sports bar food in a fun and vibrant atmosphere."
All qualified job applicants must have:
- A valid driver's license and a relatively clean car with seating for up to four passengers;
- A soothing singing voice to calm hungry guests (knowledge of "That's Amore" is mandatory);
- An in-depth knowledge of Boston Pizza's menu and all Boston Pizza locations in the Reverse Delivery Zone;
- A smart-phone with up to date mapping and GPS Apps
- The confidence to deliver guests to pizza in 45 minutes or less;
- A strong upper back and arms to carry "hangry" guests into the restaurant and full, happy guests back out (preference for candidates with "piggybacking" experience);
- Nerves of steel to put up with guests' incessant questioning of "Are we there yet?"
Interested applicants can see the full list of job postings here.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

When building large, cloud-based applications that operate at a high scale, it's important to maintain a high availability and resilience to failures. In order to do that, you must be tolerant of failures, even in light of failures in other areas of your application. "Fly two mistakes high" is an old adage in the radio control airplane hobby. It means, fly high enough so that if you make a mistake, you can continue flying with room to still make mistakes. In his session at 18th Cloud Expo, Lee...

Now, that's not to say everyone who encounters a shark in distress should try to intervene! But the diver who removed the ring from the shark in the video also happens to be a veterinarian, which may have made him confident he could help the shark without putting himself in unnecessary danger.
As the CBS interviewer and divers point out, the shark in the video is a nurse shark.
That's quite a benign sounding name for a species of shark with strong jaws filled with thousands of small, serrated teeth. Actually, nurse sharks are among the most docile creatures in the sea, but are known to bite when provoked.

Review: Parrot's Bebop Drone is lightweight, aimed at casual hobbyistsThe market for personal drones has grown exponentially over the last several years, led by consumer-oriented products from companies like Parrot. We got the chance to play with the firm's entry-level model, the Bebop Drone, designed for casual hobbyists looking to get their feet wet in the field of unmanned aerial vehicles.
Parrot's second offering in the space features a lightweight design intended for safe flying indoors or outside, although if you're just starting out we recommend giving it a whirl outdoors on a clear day. The drone features a 14 megapixel full HD camera that can take photos or video in 1080p and its own Wi-Fi hotspot from which you can control its flight path using Parrot's FreeFlight 3 app, available for free in Apple's app store.
Setup and control
As can be expected of an entry-level drone, setup is a fairly straightforward process. Preflight consists of charging one of the two included replaceable batteries, popping it into the drone and connecting your smartphone via Freeflight 3 app.
Switching Bebop on automatically activates the drone's onboard Wi-Fi module. After a quick calibration sequence, you're ready to take control of the device's flight pattern using the app. Along with a virtual control pad, the in-app dashboard view features gauges for speed and altitude levels, as well as dedicated buttons for take-off and landing procedures.
Thanks to an embedded GNSS-type GPS chip, 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, ultrasound sensor, pressure sensor and a downward-facing camera, Bebop is incredibly stable in flight. The robust sensor suite feeds raw data to a flight control system that keeps tabs on in-air vitals, leaving users to focus on flying.
Beyond basic directional controls and camera pan system — both operated by onscreen joysticks overlaid atop a livestream from the drone's camera — the app offers a myriad of more advanced settings (accessible in the app's settings menu) to assist in safer flying of the device. These include the ability to set a max altitude, which limits how far the device can fly, a distance limiter which determines how far the device can fly relative to you and a "return home" feature which, if activated, will guide the drone back to its original take-off location.
Like other drone manufacturers, Parrot includes a fail safe emergency sequence that lands the quadcopter quickly and safely.
The company even has preset flight plans available as an in-app purchase that allow users to plan out a designated route on a map. The option is a good way to get a feel for the device if you're a little skittish about flying it solo. Rest assured, you can always take back control of the device in the middle of a flight plan, if need be.
The device also comes with an attachable hull which gives the drone an additional layer of protection if you're flying indoors, although it's recommended that you operate the drone without the hull while piloting the device outdoors, since the added material makes the drone more susceptible to wind gusts.
Generally speaking we found Bebop to perform admirably and in respect to its advertised features. However, the lightweight design, while easy to store and tote around, also makes it fairly susceptible to wind when flying outside, with or without the hull attached. There were a number of instances when the device seemed to lose control with even slight gusts of wind.
If you're just starting out, it's good practice to operate the drone in a wide open space, free from trees and other potential obstructions.
Additionally, we found the battery life was somewhat shorter than advertised, usually coming in slightly less than 11 minutes. Power consumption varies depending on how heavily the onboard camera is used to snap photos or record video. Luckily, the drone comes with two rechargeable batteries that can be swapped out when necessary.
At the same time, we found the camera itself takes remarkably clear pictures and video while the device is airborne. Wide-angle images and videos at 4096 x 3072 pixels can be easily transferred from the app to your iPhone's camera, then on to friends or the Web. Bebop also sports one-touch uploading for those with YouTube channels.
Overall, we felt the drone was good enough for hobbyists, particularly those who have flown drones before and don't want to spend upwards of $1,000 on a high-powered but pricey model. The level of technology Parrot managed to cram into Bebop is admirable, and the sensor suite is especially impressive for the low-end price range.
However, for those who are still very new to the world of drones (the author of this post included), it might be a better bet to go for something smaller and perhaps easier to fly, like BLADE's Nano QX RTF Quadcopter. While it doesn't feature a camera, this "micro drone" is also small enough to be flown indoors and features stability and agility control which should prevent the device from getting away from newbies who are just learning to fly and don't want to break anything in near proximity.
Score: 3 out of 5
- Camera quality
- Easy to get up and running quickly
- Easy to store, takes up very little room compared to larger, pricier models
- Easily susceptible to wind when flying outdoors. Not for beginners.
Battery life slightly less than advertised Flight plans require an in-app purchase
Where to buy
The Parrot Bebop Drone comes is available in red, blue and yellow for $349.99 from Amazon.com.

First Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner features new Boeing livery
EVERETT, WA - Boeing continues to make progress on the first 787-9 Dreamliner, which also has become the first 787 to don the new Boeing Commercial Airplanes livery. The airplane has just rolled out of the paint hangar.
This refreshed look for the Boeing family began with the 747-8 and evolved with the 737 MAX. The new livery retains many of the features of the original 787-8 livery, adding a prominent number on the tail to help distinguish among models within the same product family.
The 787-9 will complement and extend the 787 family, offering airlines the ability to grow routes opened with the 787-8. With the fuselage stretched by 20 feet (6 meters), the 787-9 will carry 40 more passengers an additional 300 nautical miles (555 kilometers), with 20 percent less fuel use and 20 percent fewer emissions than similarly sized airplanes. The 787-9 leverages the visionary design of the 787-8, offering the features passengers prefer such as large, dimmable windows, large stow bins, modern LED lighting, higher humidity, a lower cabin altitude, cleaner air and a smoother ride.
Boeing is on track to roll out and fly the 787-9, currently in final production, in late summer. First delivery to launch customer Air New Zealand is set for mid-2014.

Community responds well to mother's plight
Relevant offers
There will be no more forced marathons for Sarah Warren thanks to support from the South Waikato community.
With no car or public transport, the solo mother walked from Putaruru to Tokoroa twice in the past month to attend compulsory Work and Income meetings after threats that her benefit would be cut if she didn't.
With a meeting approaching next Friday she was fretting about making the 25-kilometre return journey in time to be home for her four children.
But her call for help has been answered.
After Fairfax Media's story yesterday, the 48-year-old has had numerous offers of rides.
Tokoroa resident Jenni Young has offered the stay-at-home mother of two her spare time driving to their appointments.
"It's the least I could do - there is no way my conscience would let me read that article then move on to other stories as if it didn't exist."
She said she only bought a car two weeks ago.
"There's no point it sitting in the garage if someone needs it."
Warren is "rapt" with the response.
"I didn't expect this. Now I'm getting support from everyone."
Warren's neighbour Rosemaree Manson has been overwhelmed by the response too.
"It just shows that there are people out there who are willing to give their time to people like us in a situation we shouldn't be."
Faced with the same dilemma as Warren, she got more than she could have hoped for coming forward: "I just wanted people to hear what is going on and be able to help others in a worse situation."
She encouraged others on struggle street to do the same.
"Don't be shy to stand up and be heard and get the help that is out there in the community."

Proline inhibits aggregation during protein refolding
The in vitro refolding of hen egg-white lysozyme is studied in the presence of various osmolytes. Proline is found to prevent aggregation during protein refolding. However, other osmolytes used in this study fail to exhibit a similar property. Experimental evidence suggests that proline inhibits protein aggregation by binding to folding intermediate(s) and trapping the folding intermediate(s) into enzymatically inactive, "aggregation-insensitive" state(s). However, elimination of proline from the refolded protein mixture results in significant recovery of the bacteriolytic activity. At higher concentrations (>1.5 M), proline is shown to form loose, higher-order molecular aggregate(s). The supramolecular assembly of proline is found to possess an amphipathic character. Formation of higher-order aggregates is believed to be crucial for proline to function as a protein folding aid. In addition to its role in osmoregulation under water stress conditions, the results of this study hint at the possibility of proline behaving as a protein folding chaperone.

Gefen has announced its next generation 4x1 KVM DVI DL switcher that supports the connection of one display using either single-or dual-link DVI as well as resolutions up to 3840x2400.
Internal EDID management eliminates the need to reboot when switching between computers, and restores the original resolution settings and desktop icons for each computer. This provides a smooth transition throughout switching with no additional tweaking.
The 4x1 KVM DVI DL switcher offers cross-platform capability and provides a plug-and-play method of system integration without networking. It offers KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) control of four computers from one workstation, so users can quadruple the amount of data within reach at any given time. Users can choose their computer using the IR remote, front panel selector or any RS-232 control device.

In this paper we present an analytical model for microcellular and picocellular wireless networks for any arbitrary topology in a high-mobility environment. We introduce an approximation technique which uses a single-cell decomposition analysis which incorporates moment matching of hand-off processes into the cell. The approximation technique is novel in that it can provide close approximations for non-Poisson arrival traffic and it is easily parallelized. Performance measures such as new calls blocked and hand-off calls lost are presented for any general call arrival distribution in a non-homogeneous traffic environment. We produce some numerical examples for some simple topologies with varying mobility for several call arrival distributions and compare our results to those from simulation studies

Five Practical Mobile Learning Tips
Upside Learning
Find a problem with learning or performance first , think about learning next, and mobile learning last. This is somewhat analogous to "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." Look for a learning/performance problem and analyze carefully if mobile learning is a possible solution and not the other way round. Ask if there will be a real benefit for the user. Content pull?

Memorable Ways to End an eLearning Course
Integrated Learnings
By Shelley A. Gable. The recency effect tells us that people are more likely to remember information from the end of a sequence. In other words, when taking an eLearning course, learners are most likely to remember how the course ended, although the stuff in the middle might blur together. Cognitive theorists believe that as new information enters the working memory, earlier information is pushed out. Since the information entering at the end doesn't get pushed out as quickly, the brain has more time to process and remember that later information. Visual representation. Illustrative story.

Leader's Simple Guide to Building and Retaining Trust
The Peformance Improvement
Trust seems to be in short supply these days. Democrats don't trust Republicans. Israelis don't trust Palestinians. Christians don't trust Muslims. CEO's don't trust employees and vice versa. It's a sad state of affairs, given that trust is essential for compromise, collaboration, and co-existence. We will not follow a leader nor will we be engaged in the task unless we trust that leader.
PowerPoint 2010: Change the Picture, Keep the Animation
I Came, I Saw, I Learned
by AJ George. You've just completed a very slick PowerPoint presentation. On one slide you have an image fade in. After it fades in, it pulses for emphasis. After it pulses, text appears above. Then when you click the image, it hyperlinks to another slide. Everything looks and works great. But then the client contacts you and says they'd like to swap the image with another. Trying to reconstruct all of the animations and actions, as well as ensuring they're in the proper order with everything else on the slide, could be a disaster for you (or, at the very least, a small headache).
The Smart Worker : learning continuously with social media
Jane Hart
Tweet. In the first of my blog posts on helping L&D department move forward, I want to focus on how we can help others learn continuously using social media. "today's work environment doesn't tolerate learners stepping out of their workflow to learn unless it is absolutely vital to do so. The next online social activity takes place 29 August – 7 October 2011.
Evaluating Training - Capturing the Benefits Aspects of ROI
Training evaluation is necessary and, in many ways, critical to the success of a business. But because short term priorities always seem to take precedence, it is typically something we plan to do better in the next course, or maybe next month, or even next year. After all, we've managed pretty well up to now, so surely another year can't hurt!
Help us #save new born babies lives by using #mobile devices for #ultrasound
Ignatia Webs
"Why not save the lives of new borns by making use of mobile devices that can be used for ultra-sound?" with this simple idea my wonderful and inspiring colleagues Vincent De Brouwere and Fabienne Richard started a quest to get a new mobile project up and running. If we get enough votes, the project will be funded by the Belinda and Bill Gates foundation. Thanks in advance!
Shaping the future
Learning with e's
Welcome to the future? Whenever we consider the future, it is always elusive, and always just around the corner. It is never quite here. We live in the present. All the time. All each of us have is our memories of the past, and a future that is imaginary. Forget the soothsayers, the horoscope writers, the clairvoyants and the crystal ball gazers. We just don't know what will happen next.
What's hurting the LMS market
eLearning 24-7
The LMS market is strong. Revenues across the board are up, profit margins are healthy and competition is on-going (always a good thing). But for all that is positive, there are negatives, and these negatives can hinder long term growth for commercial systems. The Negatives. Features First.Usability Second. I am a huge fan of feature sets and enhancements. They are necessary for the evolution of any system and mandatory to garner more market share.

The Smart Worker : needs job aids rather than courses
Jane Hart
Tweet. This is the third in a series of posts about how L&D departments can move forward from their traditional role of creating, delivering and managing formal learning. The two previous posts in this series were: The Smart Worker : learning continuously with social media. The Smart Worker : needs immediate access to solutions to performance problems. In post 2, I suggested liberating courses from the LMS and making them available on the intranet where they were more likely to be accessed and used. Marc Rosenberg, in a recent article, When training is not the answer , points out.

The New Capitalist Manifesto
Jay Cross
"This book is more than a manifesto, it's a blueprint for building the sort of twenty-first-century company that will be loved by its customers, envied by its peers, and admired by all those who care about the future of our planet, says Gary Hamel in the introduction to this short tome by economist Umair Haque. This is ground zero for the 21C project. philosophies, not strategies.

But what I noticed in the Dell webcam software is that it came with Creative's Live! Cam Avatar Creator. So I installed it. If you have a Dell computer, here's a link to download the file. You'll just have to do some digging.
Can We Learn from Information?
In a recent blog post over at Midcourse Corrections, Jeff Hurt wrote that "Information isn't education. While that may be true in the purest sense, we shouldn't conclude (as I posted in my comment) that it means people can't learn from information. "You don't have to memorize all the rules of grammar, I used to tell my college students, "you just have to know where to find the rules. I taught them how to identify the kinds of grammar problems that plagued them and where to locate the info in their grammar book. There are podcast feeds for that.
On Education, Badges and Scouting

What is shared between Compliance eLearning and Captain America and Anime Comics?
Vignettes Learning
Synthesis Cartoons and caricatures are affordable and easy to use graphical elements to enhance eLearning. However, they are only as good as the story you are trying to tell. Without stories, they are as weak as any other medium. Comic-Con just ended this week in San Diego with over 120,000 attendees. In theaters, Captain America has now surpassed the last Harry Potter franchise in gross revenues.

Asperger's Syndrome & Autism News & Forum
Tell Me Your Story Of How You Were Suspected Of Aspergers ?!?!I'm kind of annoyed in some ways that having had behavioral problems throughout most of my school life (especially through having to see a councillor on and off roughly between ages 7-9) that I was never suspected or diagnosed with aspergers sooner than age 25 and yet others (admitedly some of whom showed stronger or more obvious symptoms) had the luxury of a much earlier diagnosis in their life and could at least have something to attribute some or most of their problems to. My mum (who made my unoficial diagnosis through some training at her pre-school) was the one who suspected this of me and then retracted the assumption a long time after (by which time I knew much more than her and was totally convinced). It's still potentially going to be a long wait before an official diagnosis, but I want to hear from others.
How old were you when you were suspected of this?
Who suspected it?
What country and or health service (if any) were you diagnosed or helped under?
What did your...
How do I tell my friends I don't want to go on a holiday with them the idea stresses meFive female friends I went to Uni with ( we are all 60 ) want to go away for three days to Sydney and stay in an apartment together and they want me to come too. Help.......they are all 100% NT and talk non stop and are so social. I run out of things to talk about after 5 minutes as I don't like gossip or talking about other people and I just don't need to talk all the time and when i do want to talk I cannot get a word in anyway and by then the conversation has moved on and what I wanted to say is no longer relevant. I need a lot of alone quiet time. I just don't think i will cope being in such close quarters with them for that long
I have told one of the group who is a lifelong friend that I am on the spectrum ( high functioning Aspie) when I refused to go interstate to her 60th as I don't like parties so I felt obliged to explain but she doesn't get it and just thinks I don't try hard enough . Social situations create enormous stress for me before and during and I really only...
Do you have the urge to be special and impress others?I've always wanted to be special and impress people. I daydream a lot about having superpower and saving the world. Every time I meet someone I can't stop bragging about what I've done and what I can do. Sometimes I even try to lead the discussion in order to let him/her ask about my talents. I'm not that kind of people who suck at everything and lack confidence. I just enjoy people's "Wow!" and their face in awe too much. I get upset when people say somebody is better than me. I try my best to prove that I'm special and better.
I'm tired of it now. Why am I such a shallow person? Is it an Aspie thing or just my own problem?
Gut issues - when did yours start?I hear a lot about people on the spectrum having gastrointestinal issues. Often I hear of cases where they are detected in childhood.
Those of you who have them, when did they develop? Did any of you develop them later, as teens or adults?
I have irritable bowel syndrome (since age 17) and I'm not sure if I am an Aspie. I may try to find out at some point. But I just wanted to ask because the connection between autism spectrum traits and gut issues is of great interest to me.
I am scared about tomorrow's psychiatrist's appointment.It terrifies me to be put under a microscope being analyzed and inspected by Healthcare officials. NT's unheartedly assume, "it's all in my head". No, it's not! I will be in an unfamiliar place alone and trembling trying to get the right words out to explain aspergers. And not just Aspergers, but also ADD, PTSD and SAD. Plus the fact that I will have to drive in heavy flow traffic to get there is overwhelming me. Any suggestions on what I can say to these people to not get condemned as a psychopath? I don't even know if I'm making any sense in this thread, but I sure would appreciate some help. Thanks!
The western genreHere is a thread to discuss our favorite western Movies,Television shows,books. As some of you may know I happen to enjoy westerns. Particularly Have Gun Will Travel, Gunsmoke,Longmire. Recently I happen to realize that I'm not the only one who does.
I've been recently watching HGWT on YouTube. I'm wondering if anyone would happen to know what kind of handgun paladin always has concealed on him, most of the time tucked behind his belt buckle. It seems to me to be a small double barrel derringer. That's as far as I know.
What did I do wrong?I called my therapist a scary lady and she seemed upset. I told her not to take it personally. I'm so nervous around her I shake. I said she was a scary lady as we were going down the hall to her office and she said something about social norms and controlling symptoms. Like she was upset I'd say it in public. But I don't see I did anything wrong but she made me feel like I should apologize so I did but she could tell it was an empty apology. What did I do wrong? I wish she had told me.
Rayner's adventure in LubbockI will be traveling to Lubbock this Friday from Dallas. I'm a going to be working on a construction project as a framer and general contractor. I have all of my tools and equipment ready for the 8 hour drive and for the subsequent use for when I get there. I'm looking forward to the job and even better I will being staying in a hotel with an Internet connection. I decided to make a thread about upcoming employment opportunity because as some of you may known I've struggled my way through my occupation. I know we have a high number of members here that work in the trades. So I guess if any has any questions about my occupation a framer/general contractor or my adventures in Lubbock this could be a good thread to ask them in.
Ladies: What is Your Definition of a "Nice" Guy?This question was asked by another member in another thread. I thought it seemed like a question worthy of its own thread.
So, ladies, here's an opportunity to state your opinion on what constitutes a "nice" guy in the romantic sense. Perhaps your thoughts on this will be of benefit to some of our gentleman members who are unsure what this term implies from a woman's perspective.
I'll start with my personal belief. A nice guy is one who is respectful, courteous, thoughtful, kind, loyal and genuine. He can be a smartass from hell and opinionated as all get-out, but if he meets the criteria above, he still falls into the "nice" category with me.
For me, it's more about a man's actions than his words anyway. If he treats me well and doesn't give cause to mistrust him or his intentions, then what he says isn't a huge factor.
Listen to me when I'm talking, be interested in my well-being, tip the waitress fairly, talk to the animals, stand by a set of principles. Those things are...
How did adult diagnosis (or suspected) affect your relationships?Hi Everybody.
I've posted several things on here and your feedback has been immensely helpful. This is probably going to be really long so I hope that doesn't discourage you from reading it. I feel like I need to give you the history.
This has to do with how becoming aware you were on the spectrum affected your relationships.
I won't bore you with the details, but suffice it to say I would bet my life that my boyfriend has undiagnosed AS. He's almost 50 years old and high functioning.
I've done a lot of reading and perusing websites seeking information and it's been crucial for me in understanding how the differences in our wiring are responsible for an untold number of issues that have arisen between us. It's basically helped me to cope with difficulties I've had in our relationship.
I felt as though it wasn't my right to point out to him the possibility of AS. I wasn't sure my reasons were noble (I.e. to satisfy my own curiosity) and I thought it could be hurtful...
