My dh and I are debt free except for the house, but we are also, until recently, not able to put away savings and are spending on dumb little things and not keeping track of spending. We have recently switched to a cash only system that is going very well and I am excited to see how much we have saved in a few more weeks.
So, I was complaining to dh about how we have three computers and they are all limping along. Although I do wish for an apple laptop as my dream computer I know it was not possible on our income (I'm looking for work but no work yet). And I'm okay with that. My mentality is about savings right now and I feel good about it.
Dh emailed me that I had a surprise coming in the mail in a week or so. I asked what it was and he acted all mysterious and finally I said, "If it's expensive I think I need to know about it." He confessed that he had ordered me a $1200 apple laptop! Yes it's the computer of my dreams, and I know he loves me to have ordered this for me but I reminded him about how unless we have cash for it and still have savings left, we can't do this. He also wanted to get dd a Nintendo DS "because all her friends have one" and she has been asking, but it's just totally not in the budget either and he's already mad about it but agreed finally that she could live without it.
I asked dh to cancel the order or if it was too late, to not open it and return it to the Apple store. He was able to cancel the order okay before it shipped thank goodness. He's crushed and hurt. He thinks I didn't accept his gift when really I just want to postpone the gift until we can afford it and receive it with a good feeling.
I'm not sure how to fix this . . any ideas? Also any words of support that I did the right thing here? Because I feel bad about this too, but not as bad as a bill for $1300 and the interest, and that much less into savings.
You need to give a bit of time to lick his wounds and then have another talk with him.
Yeah. We had very similar thing happen and I felt like a jerk for sticking to my guns but after the dust settled, my DH understood. I let him know how incredibly touched I was about his effort in trying to give me a gift that I would have loved but it just wasn't the right time.
You did right.I can understand if it is a needed expense like a fridge,stove,or washer. The computer can wait. Just remind him how much you appreciated what he did,and that it will be great once you can actually get it.
For no interest credit card use I just got in the mail a no interest/no transfer fee offer from Chase.Good for up to 13k and till 5-2012.
Good option if something unexpected pops up.
For the nintendo ds I would either flat out not get it or make my kid pay half. My kids wanted anintendo ds(friends had it) and it collects dust.
Could you meet him half way? Perhaps let him get the DS for your kid? He could still give a good gift, it will help him get over the computer rejection (which must have hurt him but was totally necessary. That is a lot of money you don't have.) and allow him to have a little fun and show him you really do appreciate his generosity. at a 10th of what the computer cost.
The truest answer to violence is love. The truest answer to death is life. The only prevention for violence is for the heart to have no violence within it. We cannot prevent evil through any system devised by mankind. But we can grapple with evil and defeat it, but only with love—real love.

I thought about it, but we still don't have the $ for the ds either. I mean we would at the end of the month but only because we are counting every penny and being really good with spending. I hate to blow our hard earned savings on a ds until we reach our first savings goal. We have a Wii already which the kids don't use as much as he expected them to. I use it a lot to play Netflix through the TV (we don't have cable) and that's about it. Dd also has an Ipod touch with tons of apps on it. It was mine but she was using it more so I gave it to her.
I'm trying to think of something I can ask for that's not expensive but meaningful so he feels he's getting me something and heals his hurt feelings.
ETA the kids get $5/week allowance each and it would take dd forever to save that up on her own.
We have the same situation w/ the Wii and DS. We mostly use the Wii for watching Netflix, although it's fun to play games once in a while. DD1 is selling her DS to DD2 (we are paying for it), and DD2 is selling her Gameboy to a friend (really cheap). I would skip the DS, honestly.
PS I do think you did the right thing with the computer.
Mom "D" to DD1 "Z" (15) and DD2 "I" (11) DH "M"
How old is DD and does she really want the DS? I only ask because my kids were both able to save up for a DS because it was really important to them (at the time they were getting $10/month allowance). They also saved gift money and sold a few things. You might offer to split the cost with her if she wants (or suggest some things she could do to earn/save money). It could also be a gift.
Well, he will hopefully understand, when his hurt has gone.
It is not really a gift, is it, if it is out of your shared savings and you cannot afford it and have talked about it already, I think.
Maybe he is hurt, because he feels he should be able to provide you and the children with these gadgets and he is not?
Thanks for the input again! I really do think he feels he should be able to get these things for us and he can't and he's sad. But it was our decision to have me be a SAHM and I told him I'm okay with doing with less as long as we are single income.
BTW he needed to get $700 worth of car repairs today!! Good timing on that returned laptop huh? ;-)
Then I would just be really encouraging to your husband. Let him know how much you appreciate the gesture and that you cannot wait until you have the savings to buy that computer. Remind him that he is a good provider and all that stuff men need to hear.

One more idea on the DS - they are on craigslist all the time. Would he/your daughter be happy with that?
This reminds me the Mother's Day gift dh bought me a couple of years ago when we were FLAT broke. He spent $300 on a bracelet and $200 on plants for the garden. I wish I had put my foot down about it :( We had talked about the bracelet before he bought it (it was a Pandora bracelet) but I wasn't expecting him to go so overboard with it!!!! And I barely wear the blasted thing (it pulls the hair out of my arm. Oww!)
You made the right decision!

Later in the match, Scotland scored the go ahead goal and with about 15 minutes left, the Scots were holding their breath and biting their nails.

As the owner of a D800, I have been looking for a housing for it...for a few years and now I have come across two D750. The two D750s look like present from heaven for underwater shooting
Well I almost forgot there is this D750
To me D810 is THE camera for shooting underwater, if you don't mind its weight and price. The 36MP sensor is simply too important for macros...and the cropped 15MP...for longer reach as well
However, D750 still makes great images with fast AF..and faster fps...which is sometimes needed in moving So to me both are great and I tend to choose D810..since the investment in housing is the same

History of Potpourri
I'm interested in learning about the history of making potpourri. Can you direct me to some reference books or other reference sources?
Paulette Mouchet
Good question -- there's probably a PhD. thesis or two lurking there. I haven't seen anything that I'd really call "history" rather than "lore" about the origins and development of potpourri. Here's some guesswork:
It seems certain that the first stuff to be called potpourri was made by the "wet" method, in which rose petals were not completely dried to a crisp before being layered with salt. It's basically the same method as making sauerkraut, a process of fermentation -- and the word potpourri means "rotten pot" in French. I've read that jars of rose petals have been excavated from ancient sites in Egypt, so perhaps potpourri actually goes back that far. Potpourri jars -- opaque, with a solid cover to keep scent in and a pierced cover to let it out -- date back a few hundred years, I think, but I have no idea where and when the first one was made. "Strewing herbs" were used in the middle ages to sweeten the air, but I don't think they really count.
Dry potpourri is usually fortified with essential oils, and essential oils don't go back further than steam distillation, which is late middle ages. I suspect that growing flowers in the quantities needed for essential oil production is a product of the industrial revolution, with railroad transport and the prospect of using farmland for growing specialty cash crops.

Dartmouth farm helps animals with special needs - 0 Comments
DARTMOUTH, Mass. — The alpacas, with their funny Muppet faces and curly coiffed bangs, were inquisitive when the new people walked up to meet them
A pony ran over, head bobbing.
Two goats trotted near, like dogs with big horns, to have a sniff and a stare.
Todd, the goose, stayed where he was with the ponies and other animals.
"He doesn't like the ducks and chickens," said Deborah Devlin, who owns Don't Forget Us Pet Us, a 14-acre farm that is home to all manner of animals that have been neglected or have some form of special needs.

I am trying to decide if the users Region/Locale settings validates the use of Metric values (in this case if kg or lb should be appended).
I am running 3.2 on my iPad and on the simulator(Xcode 3.2.4).
I have tried out a few different Region settings but I simply can not make it return
NO for
NSLocale *locale = [NSLocale systemLocale];
BOOL usesMetric = [[locale objectForKey:NSLocaleUsesMetricSystem] boolValue];
NSLog(@"The system is Metric: %@\n", (usesMetric ? @"YES" : @"NO"));
This even happens for language set to English and region set to United States on both the simulator and on the actual device.
I also tried
NSLocaleMeasurementSystem and it too always returns "Metric", never "U.S.".
How will I go about deciding if I should use Metric or not?
Thanks for any help given:)
...could I be so lucky that the whole world changed to metric while I was sleeping:)

American Tea RoomEdit Company
Popular Teas from American Tea RoomSee All 123 Teas
Recent Tasting Notes
So recently I found out that The American Tea Room has a shop in Beverly Hills, not far from UCLA. So since my week has been horrible and I had to go up to UCLA today for the second time this week, my mum said she would take me to there. I have only tried one of their teas, so I don't really know what I was expecting. XD But the people were surprisingly nice and helpful. One lady that talked to us was very honest about the tea and I felt like she wasn't just trying to make it sound amazing so I'd buy it. I didn't buy that much, and plus a lot of their teas are pretty cheap, so that was also great! And they let me pick out a free sample, and it was a big sample too. xD
This was definitely the nicest tea store I have been to so far! But I don't think I'd end up liking tons of their teas anyway. Mainly because I'm picky haha
But anyway. Picked up 2oz of this one because it smelled amazing.
I was not expecting it to be good at all. I was expecting it to be grassy since it was a green tea base. But it totally proved me wrong.
Brewed it up when I got home.
It's so maple-y and sweet. There's so much caramel and syrup flavor in it. It's ridiculously good. I was not expecting that at all!
It tastes a lot like DavidsTea's Movie Night, well when I first had tried it because it was so sweet and kinda tasted like caramel corn. But the last time I bought that tea it tasted weaker and more apple flavor…so I am thinking that they changed something in it, which has made me pretty sad because it was one of my favorites before.
But now I feel better because I have this one which is just as delicious and sweet, and it really wasn't all that expensive-so this tea was definitely a win for me!!
Not sure how the other two teas I got will be, but this one was definitely worth checking out.
If i had to have a complaint it would be that in the second steep I could taste the green tea base more, it was a little grassy, but not too much. Movie Night barely has any green tea in it, even that's like the base of it. Movie Night has decorations and stuff, but this one was mainly just green tea and some nuts. So I can't expect it not to be a little grassy. xD Anyway, really fantastic tea! I would recommend if you ever try anything from there! :D
Flavors: Caramel, Grass, Maple, Maple Syrup, Nuts, Sweet
I have only ever tried their Brioche and I loved it! If you were a fan of Teavana's long gone Almond Biscotti, it tastes just like that. I can't wait to try more of their teas! When you were in the shop, was there a minimum amount you had to purchase? Could you buy sample sizes?
Oh, yeah that was the first tea I tried from them ever! :P Was decent. Well they said that the sample would be enough for a pot of tea…or a cup of tea…And then they were putting the tea into the pouch and it ended up being way more than that. xD Maybe like half an ounce? It was a pretty big sample haha! The samples are 4 dollars in store and online. (:
Awesome, thanks! I really want to place an order, but I really need to sip down a bit first as well. I hate self restraint.
Thank you so much for the sample, American Tea Room! Just a note: I'm not a fan of jasmine teas. In perfumery, it's finicky enough as it is, and only care for it when it's masterfully blended with notes such as vanilla, coconut, or vetiver. Otherwise, jasmine is way too powerful. This also applies to tea. There has to be a lot of other things in the leaf in order to calm down that overbearing floral.
The dry leaf is overwhelmingly jasmine. My mom couldn't believe how floral a tea can smell. I followed the directions and steeped it for three minutes, and let the water cool quite a bit, maybe even more than suggested. While the tea isn't too bitter, it's just so, well, jasminey! My mouth is filled with astringent jasmine, which does go on the bitter side as it cools.
Funny how I love florals, both in perfumery and cuisine, but jasmine is more often than not an exception. No dice, jasmine.
Wow, this is not what I was expecting at all. I tend to tiptoe around rooibos because of its domineering nature but as soon as I ripped open the packet, a cloud of liqueur-filled dark chocolate enveloped the kitchen.
With light cream, this is very chocolatey. I can still taste the rooibos but it's rather faint and in no way ultra woody. This would make an excellent substitution for boxed chocolates, as in, satisfying a craving for them.
Way to be, ATR.
Got this as a sample from American Tea Room. Lovely of them to include such a large sample. Unfortunately, I dislike rooibos intensely. Thought I'd give it a try anyway because chocolate. Although the dry leaf aroma and the brewed tea flavor had a nice, strong chocolate presence, it wasn't enough to disguise the nasty rooibos. I think if it was a black tea base I would have loved it, but this rooibos is not for me.
Flavors: Chocolate, Rooibos, Vanilla
Another sample from miss Stephanie. I love figs, so I'm always interested in fig teas. I'm really hoping the coconut in here doesn't ruin this one, I try to avoid teas with actual coconut in them because it ages so poorly. I can already smell the soapiness through the plastic baggie. :( This is a fairly chunky tea, there are large chunks of fruit along with the coconut shreds and some crushed spices.
The steeped cup smells mostly of soapy coconut. I can definitely taste the soapy flavor in the taste as well, aww… Otherwise this tastes quite mellow for a puerh base, and it's mildly sweet and spicy. Withholding rating. :(
Flavors: Coconut, Dried Fruit, Earth, Smooth, Spices, Sweet
Sip down! Part of me was tempted to save the last of it to symbolically drink it in one of my Fairmont Empress teacups but typical hoarding moi still has them, and the accompanying teapot, tucked away in their boxes deep in the back of the cupboard.
This is essentially a nice EGC with a touch of rose. Not sure if I'd buy more since I'd still rather have a cup of good ole ECG from Zen, but I wouldn't mind having another cup any way.
I figured since it was Christmas morning, I should treat myself to one of my ATR samples. My mom chose this one since she's excited to spend Christmas here rather than on the Prairies. Tearing open the packet and wow! It's strong, and I mean strongly, scented with bergamot and vanilla. The dried roses are pretty hues of pink and purple. Even more appropriate considering how green and lush, and snowless, it looks during this time of the year.
Flavour-wise, the bergamot is the most prominent note, followed by the vanilla. The rose is fleeting but makes its presence known for the most part. My main complaint, however, is the bold base which borders on bitter. Perhaps I need to use even less leaf and steep it for a shorter amount of time? Next time I'll also try it with some half and half to see what'll happen.
This is better as a cold brew, in my opinion. Still no true passion fruit note, but the fruity peachy notes are crisper. Got a bit bitter, so I'm sure this is especially the kind of iced tea people would prefer having with a bit of sugar, but I will never take that route with iced tea haha.
This glass Contigo of cold brew also means a sip down! Wow, btw, ATR is quite generous with their samples. At first $4 sounds like quite a bit for a sample but I actually managed to make three Nordic mugs and a two-cup amount of cold brew with it. Not too shabby.
And PS: Yay! After nearly two months of waiting, several emails, a phone call, and a Facebook conversation, Bare Minerals has finally sent out my parcel, with the correct information, and has thus successfully landed on my proverbial doorstep. :D
Time to tear open a sample packet. Passion fruit is a favourite fruit of mine. So tart and bursting with flavour. For me, the more sour the fruit, the better. This is my first passion fruit tea, and by the looks of it, I'm definitely going to have to continue my search for a good one.
The scent of the dry leaf is very subtle, and the very little fruity flavour that I do get does not resemble passion fruit at all. It's more like peaches, with maybe a tiny hint of dates. Actually, it's my mom who first picked up on the date-like smell, and once she mentioned it, I started to see where she was coming from. But that said, no passion fruit.
You know how I'm certain? Because I'm sitting next to a freaking sliced-open passion fruit right now. Not that I need to refresh my memory or anything but since I happened to find them on sale, I figured this would be the perfect time to compare the nuances of the tea with the actual fruit.
Sipping on the tea first, the base is quite robust. For the first five minutes or so, without any additives, it basically just tastes like a plain black tea, as the strong base overrides the delicate fruity notes. I went ahead and added some light cream to mine wondering if it would tone down the base and bring out the fruity notes. Nope, big mistake. Now it basically tastes like Tim Hortons. Hmm. But just now, I had a sip of my mom's, who left hers as is, and sure enough, as the additive-free tea cooled down, the fruity flavours come out more. Again, I detect mostly peach more than passion fruit.
I'll drink the rest of the sample black, and let it cool down slightly. I'm sure it wouldn't be bad iced, but regardless, I'm definitely going to have to continue my hunt to find that perfect passion fruit tea. A teaspoon of pure passion fruit goodness reassures me that this needs to be done.
I'm sometimes skeptical of highly creative, flavored teas but was completely won over by this astoundingly well balanced blend. Honestly, just opening the bag makes you feel like you're wandering the streets of Paris at dawn. This tea also really does taste like brioche—the flavor lasts long after you've finished drinking. Gorgeous.
Backlog. This one was alright, but not nearly as sweet as I expected from the description. I might try icing or even cold-brewing this one, because it seems like it could stand up to it. The apricot flavor of this is intense, right down to the pit. I think that's the only way I can describe it, because while the edge I taste here isn't bitter exactly, there's definitely something less smooth than I expected. Not bad, but I think cold-brewing might make it great instead of just good.
Backlog. This smelled wonderful but was ultimately a bit much for me. The lavender is intensely herbal and the sencha base is really vegetal, leaving me with a tea that was pretty grassy. I was expecting more floral flavor from the lavender to balance the sencha, but this one was just too strong all around for me. I gave the rest to mom—she loves it.
American Tea Room sent me this as a sample and I appreciated the lightness (I've been drinking a lot of hardcore Earls lately.) This one gives the pleasant sensation of a pure bergamot mixed with vanilla ice cream. Very well rounded—I can almost hear the ice cream man coming down the block.
Flavors: Bergamot, Cream
Oh! This actually tastes like pastry! Not just some unidentified bready thing like I was expecting. There is a good amount of almond and baking spice flavor, making this great for morning drinking or a dessert cup. I saw that this tea company also has a caffeine-free herbal version of this…but I can't imagine at all how that could come even close to the flavor of this. I believe this was a sample from NayLynn. Thanks so much for letting me try it!!
Flavors: Almond, Cinnamon, Pastries
Got a sample of this from Stephanie-a rather generous sample at that! :D I hear that this tea is very Similar to Lupicia's Cookie, so I've been curious about this one.
I think the closest this tea comes to Cookie is the dry leaf aroma. But while it's steeping, the smell is mainly cinnamon.
The taste isn't too much different. A lot of cinnamon, and a lot of butter. It's like a really buttery, cinnamon cookie.
Not as strong as Cookie, or really as good in my opinion. But it's not bad, I'll definitely be able to finish the sample! Just wouldn't purchase. Thank you so much for the generous sample, Stephanie! :D
Flavors: Butter, Cinnamon
IMO Brioche is closer to Simpson & Vail's Almond Sugar Cookie. Lupicia's Cookie doesn't have the cinnamon, just malty bakey deliciousness. :D
Ah, I just seem to keep reading notes of people comparing it to Cookie. But now that I'm thinking of it, you're totally right. It is much more similar to Almond Sugar Cookie. But I think I liked Almond Sugar Cookie better even xD
I've seen the comparison before, too, but I wonder if someone got confused along the way. Of course, all three are baked-goods-type teas. And all three are yummy. I believe I also preferred S&V's version to Brioche. But Cookie was another beast, and quite delicious, and I want moar. Hahaha.
i want to write a proper review.
i really do.
it's been so long.
and i just received a new tea order in the mail today and everything.
instead here are my newest nails.
and my comic book collection says 'hi'
Warm toasty cinnamon and baked almond! This really does remind me of the almond flavored biscotti that my sister just made and sent to us for the holidays. I need to devise a scheme to justify a purchase. How much tea do I have to drink or pass onto someone else before a purchase doesn't seem ridiculous?
Oh, and btw, I hate this clunky keyboard! It took so long to type this with all the corrections I had to make. Damn you substandard keyboard!!!
I'm smelling apple cinnamon pie, but there are no apples in this! It is tasting a bit like Teavana's long gone Almond Biscotti that I dearly loved! It might have a little more cinnamon (which is fine by me) and has that almond cookie flavor to it too. I think I'm going to fall hard for this one. Thank you traveling tea boxes! I never would have thought to seek this one out otherwise!
Pass the Stash TTB #2
This is delightful! The smell is incredible and the flavor is fantastic. I suppose it's supposed to be nutty. I have no idea what this smells like to me, but I love it. It's just so… different and delicious. I like. Very like. Wow. I keep this. :)
Flavors: Nuts, Nutty

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Compile assets from any organizational structure into a valid Shopify theme.
In order to deploy a Shopify theme, the theme assets must be organized into Shopify's conventional directorie structure. This structure may not be the most desirable for the theme developer's workflow. This grunt task allows Shopify theme developers to organize their sources files how ever they choose. The task organizes the theme into the required deployment structure.
When the task runs, only the files which have changed are copied. This keeps the task light when working with large themes.
Getting Started
This plugin requires Grunt
0.4.0 or newer
If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
npm install grunt-shopify-theme --save-dev
This example shows the simplest possible Gruntfile.js which might be used to set up the
grunt-shopify-theme task. No options are specified, so defaults will be used. This assumes that your base directory contains the following folders:
Each of these directories will be checked recursively for files which are allowed in the theme. The theme will be compiled in a subdirectory under the base of
"use strict"; gruntinitConfig pkg: gruntfilereadJSON'package.json' 'shopify-theme': target: {} ; gruntloadNpmTasks'grunt-shopify-theme'; gruntregisterTask'default' 'shopify-theme';;
This Gruntfile.js example demonstrates all possible options which can be specified for the
grunt-shopify-theme task.
"use strict"; gruntinitConfig pkg: gruntfilereadJSON'package.json' 'shopify-theme': target: // set the path to the deployment directory, by default this is deploy/ destination: 'deploy/theme' assets: // src assets from as many directories as you like, use blob (**) for // recursive searching src: 'assets/css/*' 'assets/images/**' 'assets/js/*' 'assets/fonts/*' options: // by default common images, css, js or liquid files are allowed in the // assets folder, you can allow additional extensions here extensions: '.mov' '.aiff' config: // config only allows settings.html and settings_data.json, if you render // your settings.html with Jade or Haml, no worries about the other files ... // this example also demonstrates the method that should be used for // ignoring a file which may be present in the precompiled theme, remember // that this file will be pruned if it is present in the destination folder src: 'config/*' '!config/settings_data.json' layout: // the remaining three sources only allow liquid files src: 'layout/*' snippets: src: 'snippets/*' templates: // use blog to search subdirectories and your directory structure can be as // fancy as you wish src: 'templates/**' templatesCustomers: src: 'templates-customers/**' dontPrune: // use dontPrune to specify an array of filenames that should not be pruned, // you can't use * or ** here 'settings_data.json' ; // consider using watch to run this task when source files change // pair it with a desktop uploader or another task which can upload your files // directly to shopify, just watch the deployment folder for changes gruntloadNpmTasks'grunt-shopify-theme'; gruntregisterTask'default' 'shopify-theme';;
How This Plugin Works
A Shopify theme is comprised of several directories:
/assets/config/layout/snippets/templates/templates/customers (optional)
There are limitations for each of these directories. The task watches the source directory and looks for these subdirectories, applying rules to each which will copy all applicable files, leaving behind anything which is not part of a proper Shopify theme.
A few rules are applied to the source files for each of these directories and the options are there to source from multiple directories for each type of Shopify theme asset. These rules allow sources to deviate from the structure of the deployed Shopify theme. Source: well-organized. Deployment: messy but who cares?
Task Rules
Rules for each Shopify theme subdirectory:
- Any image file
- Any .css or .css.liquid file
- And .js or .js.liquid file
- Additional extensions can be added using Gruntfile.js
- Only settings.html and settings_data.json files
- Any .liquid file
- Any .liquid file
- Any .liquid file
- Remember to locate your customers folder files outside this folder or they will not be compiled into the correct location
- Any liquid file
Complementary Tasks/apps
There are several options for handling the deployment of your theme. Any other grunt task or app which can watch a directory and upload changes will be a great compliment to this task.
Future Development
I plan to add the capability of deploying changes directly to Shopify at some point in the future. For now, there are many other options for watching and deploying.
Version History
0.1.3 2014-01-30
- Added dontPrune option to avoiding overwrites of files in destination directory
0.1.2 2013-11-23
- Added support for templates/customers directory
- Updated documentation
- Bug fixes

We play and review all 40 golf courses on the Costa del Sol (between Gibraltar and Malaga). The Rio Real golf club is 45 years old, large, with attached hotel and golf tutoring. Rio Real is basically a parkland golf course, although not completely flat. Half the holes have moderate slope. A few holes only have elevation tee-to-green of more...
Having played Rio Real on many occasions this is always the first course we go to book and look forward to playing when coming to Spain.
As always we were not disappointed. The staff are always very welcoming and friendly and the best club sandwich!
Greens were in excellent condition, good variety of holes and always challenging.
Looking forward to...
Having played many courses over my 50 years of golfing life, this is a wonderful complex. Course well manicured and Greens are in good condition. Hotel room, exceptionally large, and of top quality. Food excellent, staff and service excellent. Nothing is to much trouble. Plenty of buggies available. Will spend more time here on my next visit and would highly...
Layout of the course is great, some good fun holes. Condition of the greens and fairways was much better than expected having read previous reviews.
Definitely recommend a visit.
Have played here several times over the past 15 yrs. Always a favourite. Disappointed with the staff attitude. They wanted to change our tee time for 8 of us back 2 hours. Sent us off the 10th as a compromise. Then came out to make us let a 2 ball through even though they couldn't keep up with us. Then...
Excellent course staff could not apologise more for the saline content in water that had affected the greens
Open and inviting, well set out
Fantastic terrace offering views of 18th when you make it to the 19th!
Service and cleanliness excellent
In November 2014 a group of 4 of us played here and though the course has a decent layout the condition of the fairways and greens are atrocious, fairways resemble plough fields and the greens patchwork quilts! A real pity :-(
I would recommend that you check prior to booking or go somewhere else.
Challenging but very playable course near Marbella. Holes run out to the sea allows public to get a bit too close and a couple of the tees are directly under balconies of course side apartments.
Still good time had by all - no lost balls!
Having played here every year now for ten and always enjoyed it how disappointing to arrive here this time to see all the greens with grass plugs in them - apparently due to disease - but making the course unplayable.
The course is now so slow - our round was over 5 hours
Management basically ignored our concerns about the...
Good golfing people. Save your money and don,t even think of playing Rio Real. Never been on such a neglected course with greens that make my garden look good. Five hours of hell and no sign of a marshall to move things along.
They give you a course guide as compensation which is big of them.

Metal Fans Petition to Get GWAR's Oderus Urungus as a Character in 'Mortal Kombat X'
If fans get their way, you could be able to play as GWAR's Oderus Urungus in 'Mortal Kombat X.'
If fans get their way, you could be able to play as GWAR's Oderus Urungus in 'Mortal Kombat X.'
GWAR have added to their empire with the opening of the GWARbar in Richmond, Virginia.
One of the highlights of the 2014 GWAR-B-Q was the Viking funeral in honor of late GWAR front-thing Oderus Urungus, a.k.a Dave Brockie.
It's only been a few days since the passing of GWAR frontman Dave Brockie (aka Oderus Urungus) and the entire metal world is still in mourning. Many heartfelt tributes have been extended by musicians and fans, but nothing has been said by GWAR's camp. However, GWAR have just released their first official statement commenting on Brockie's death.
We pay tribute to one of metal's greatest and most innovative live bands. Here, Loudwire presents the 11 Greatest GWAR Moments.
It's with great sadness that we report the death of GWAR frontman Dave 'Oderus Urungus' Brockie. According to various sources, Brockie's body was found on the evening of March 23.
One of my favorite shows that is on TV is "Insane Clown Posse Theater" starring ICP and after you checkout this video, you will be a fan as well.
What happens when Gwar's front man Oderus Urungus gets animated? He gets high on life and wants to send a positive message to kids everywhere. Really?

Do you enjoy scouring the countryside for critters you can /love? Do you collect mounts you'll never ride just to get your total up? Does the idea of five manning Ulduar for achievements make your heart sing? Is the Insane title right up your alley? If any of this sounds like what you're about, Fly By Night would love to count you among us.
There's a lot of guilds out there that do a little bit of everything, and Fly By Night is no exception, but unlike a lot of up and coming guilds, we want to spend time getting to know you and helping you meet your meta-goals.
Even before achievements existed, we were out there grinding reputations, farming mounts and pets, striving to get all our profession recipes.. And we're looking to continue this trend in Pandaria.
We've been making weekly Sartharion and Malygos runs, and we're making it a priority to get everyone's Red Proto-Drake and Volcanic Stone Drake. We're always open to suggestions in regards to raids and other miscellaneous runs, and we try to make these things about having fun above all else; if we mess up an achievement, oh well! We can always try again next week!
Fly By Night strives to be a low stress environment catering to the casual player that just enjoys doing stuff. We believe real life should always come first, so if you only have a certain amount of time to devote to WoW, that's cool with us. We'll try to work around your schedule so everyone can get the things they need.
We happily accept any classes at any level and skill. Even if you don't have an 85, we're happy to help get you there, and get achievements along the way. Plenty of our members are alt crazy, and now that achievements are account-wide, this only furthers our enthusiasm.
If you think you'd be at home with Fly By Night, we'd love to hear from you!
EDIT: I'm compelled to mention that we're also looking to get into content-relevant raiding in Mists of Pandaria if we can get a reliable group together. Right now our numbers are a little sparse, but if you'd like to help us fill out for raids, that would be fantastic! Of course this will also go hand in hand with gathering achievements.

Bollywood star Aishwarya Rai has kick-started a campaign to increase the number of children immunised against polio in Pakistan.
The Indian actress and Pakistan pop star JAWAD AHMED are acting as ambassadors in the fight against the disease in each others' countries - after being chosen by Asian health ministers at a World Health Organisation (WHO) meeting.
India and Pakistan are among the countries with the highest number of cases of the illness in the world.
Pakistan health minister MOHAMMED NASIR KHAN says, "We have to fight together against the virus which has crippled many children in India and Pakistan.
"Both the countries plan to eradicate the disease by December 2006."

Huntingdonshire Philharmonic Society
Choral & Orchestral Concert
|Symphony No. 6, "Pastoral"
Nicola Ihnatowicz, soprano
Harriet Webb, mezzo soprano
Nick Allen, tenor
Dominic Sedgwick, bass
Beethoven's "Pastoral" symphony belongs to a long tradition of descriptive music. Nature in rustic country scenes and the inevitable storm are all present – with descriptive titles to match, but Beethoven's own subtitle, "More an expression of feeling than a painting", perhaps gives the real key to this symphony's enduring appeal.
The Harmoniemesse or "Wind-band Mass" was Haydn's last grand full scale work, and his only Mass to use a full complement of wind instruments. Sections of magnificent choral writing integrate with passages for soloists, and in the final climactic ending Haydn adds his farewell as the last notes of the "Dona nobis pacem" soar heavenwards.
Tickets: (on sale one month before the concert, priced at

After the 'sell-out' success of Les Miserables, Spotlight Productions are preparing to make a splash with their next spectacular production, Singin' in the Rain.
Considered by many to be the gold standard in movie musicals, Singin' in the Rain takes audiences into the magic of a 1920s Hollywood Soundstage where cinema gave the American imagination a vivid new language for dreaming big dreams.
For the first time in its history Spotlight Productions will make it rain on stage, in a dazzling stage effect that will bring the beloved MGM film Singin' in the Rain to life in downtown Huntingdon. The musical follows silent movie star Don Lockwood who has everything he could ever want, fame, adulation and even a well-publicised romance with his co-star Lina Lamont. But hilarity ensues when a new kind of film alters everything, the kind of film where actors talk, sing… and even dance! The musical features a glorious score including the well-known numbers "Make 'em Laugh," "Good Morning," "Moses Supposes" and, of course, "Singin' in the Rain."

Sensitive and inspirational, his messages are amazingly detailed and always humorous.
It's NOT creepy or kooky, mysterious or spooky. It's Psychic Medium Tony Stockwell demonstrating his belief that those who have passed can communicate with their loved ones.

Psychic Medium Tony Stockwell is not a new kid on the block and during his 25 years working as a medium he has constantly worked to improve his game and push the boundaries of his communication. In that time he has
had umpteen television programmes, taught at some of the most respected schools for mediumistic development as well as setting up his own training school for developing mediums.
Tony Stockwell is a Spiritualist Medium and spirit communication is part of his own religious belief, but we accept differing opinions exist regarding mediumship. Any demonstration of mediumship is an experiment and results are not guaranteed.

Really enjoyed the course as it is in great condition. Staff very friendly, but took us over 5 hours to play, barely finished before dark.
We've been "flight card" (frequent player card) players for a decade, and really enjoy this course. Good value, try lunch at the snack bar.....great sandwiches and delicious handmade potato chips. The Longbow management has allowed the on course drinking water availability to be ZERO for way too long. Shame on them.
We played this course twice while visiting Mesa in January. It was a fun 18 hole desert course with some challenging shots, but not too hard if you hit the ball straight. Like most desert courses, anything off the fairway is in sand/rocky terrain... It was close to a Boeing facility, so there were lots of planes taking off around...
Went there with some friends for lunch, the service was good, and the food was also good. Nice views and great outdoor seating
I golf here because its challenging and the staff are friendly. Its not particularly picturesque compared to some of the mountain courses but there are lots of opportunities to try different shots even if you play it several times
First the good news. Great design and visually beautiful, Fairways in good shape (cart path only for the past three week). Requires a range of shots and some thinking on most holes.
However, management is making some decisions that are unfortunate. Since this is not an inexpensive course, I cannot fathom why they refuse to fix the water fountains on...
When we booked our round for Oct 28th we weren't aware they had only been open for a few days, the course had just reopened after re-seeding. We decided to walk the course because we had the same issue a day earlier on another course and didn't care for the cart path only rule. The fairways and tee boxes were...
Typical Pete Diabolical course. HIgh bunkers and sand everywhere. Really penalized if you don't hit the ball straight.
this was a great course when it first opened,had a great layout,it was changed with the idea of an office park to be built around it and thus the changes where made,it is still a very nice layout,has lots of private small planes that flyin and out of falcon field,one of the busiest small airport in the u.s. and the...
Nice course but the ball carries really far and for me off the fareway:( The Hospitality was great! Great day.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Receiver David Nelson can still recall the giddy times of last season, when he and the rest of the Buffalo Bills' collection of castoffs and journeymen began shedding their no-name label on offense.
Bills' "No-Name" offense has top 10 objective
For two months, the so-called "Mis-Fitz" — named after quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick — showed they could be one of the NFL's most productive offenses with a prolific spark in helping the Bills get off to a surprising 5-2 start. That was before injuries and inconsistencies caught up in a season that ended with a 6-10 thud.
With all of the key members returning, and being a year older and a whole lot healthier, Nelson doesn't see why the Bills can't go further this year in proving themselves over an entire 16-game season.
"That's what's exciting. Last year, we just kind of wanted everybody to know we were legit," Nelson said. "Now that we've made that known, and people have to take account of who we are and what we're capable of, now we have to take that next step and be that dynamic offense."
The first steps toward meeting that objective were taken over the past month during a series of voluntary and mandatory practices, which wrapped up on Thursday. The process will continue on July 26, when the Bills open training camp in Rochester for a team brimming with the expectation that it is on the cusp of being a contender and in a position to snap a 12-year playoff drought.
"Our team knows we can win. Our team knows we can play with the best teams in the league," Nelson said. "It's just about going out and doing it."
With much of the focus being placed on how much the Bills invested this offseason — signing defensive end Mario Williams and selecting cornerback Stephon Gilmore in the first round of the draft — to improve its defense, the significant strides made by the offense last year can't be overlooked.
It's a unit that got off to an eye-opening start in averaging 30 points and 380 yards over its first seven games. That's a stretch in which the Bills rallied from double-digit second-half deficits to beat Oakland and New England on consecutive weekends.
Despite an inability to sustain that momentum in losing eight of their final nine games, Buffalo's offense still produced 5,624 yards, the most by the Bills since 1992, and finished 14th in the NFL in yards, the best finish since Drew Bledsoe's first season in 2002.

tub choice
boisedoctormomJuly 22, 2011
I am remodeling all 3 bathrooms in my "storybook style" home in Boise. My teenagers bathroom currently has one shower (which she never uses) and she desperately wants a bathtub. After many conversations with the contractor, it seems I must find a very small tub to fit this space. I initially ordered an American Standard Huron (46 1/2" by 28") but found it to be cheap looking and uncomfortable to sit it. So now I am looking at the Kohler Greek tub. Has anyone used it and loved it? Can you use it for a shower? Do you have to buy the "apron" that makes it an alcove tub (which is what I need). Is the apron ugly and would it be better to just tile the front? Any input would be appreciated, time is of the essence, of course.

Timer on Gas Water heater
I know that some folks put timers on their electric water heaters. Would the same technique work on Gas water heaters ?
Is it dangerous to try this ?
Any help or opinion would be appreciated.
"Is it dangerous to try this?"
Yes it is dangerous to try this! By allowing the water temperature to drop, you will be creating the proper conditions to allow mold and pathogens, like Legionnaires Disease, to grow in your tank. You and your family will then inhale these as an aerosol when showering. I would hope your familyÂs health and well-being is worth more than the meager savings!
Jeeze is that true or are you just pulling our leg? Doesn't the Chorine etc, slow down those spores? and afterall, it get's heated before you use it again. And the water is circulated out of the water heater every day... please educate me.
Setting up a timer for a gas HW might be complicated; it would have to be a newer heater (no pilot light) with piezo-electric starter - then, if they have an electrical connection, probably not too bad, if no electrical connection, then it gets complicated.
I've got an electric HW heater (no gas line nearby), timers help, but only if the household has a REGULAR schedule, to let you schedule off time for after the last shower, until an hour before the first shower.
Legionnaire's disease and mold are NOT likely to be a problem, most home water systems are closed systems (and if on a municipal water supply, are treated with chlorine - an antibacterial)
An aside to fsq4cw - the 130 degree Fahrenheit (about 54 degrees Celsius) isn't high enough to kill most bacteria. But, 130 F is a bit too high for most mammals - they get scalded/burned (to kill bacteria you need 212 F or 100 C - temps I won't run in my home), for safety reasons.
thumki check with a reputable plumber in your area, but disregard the first reply to your question!
A better solution for you, since you have gas hotwater, would most likely be a tankless hot water heater - minimal storage losses - and virtually unlimited HW supply (if sized correctly) - think twice if you have teens at home.
thumki may not have an appropriate exposure to the sun for solar hot water; he is trying to find a way to cut costs(energy use).
I agree that solar is a good way to go (I've had solar space heating since the early eighties), on a limited basis, very old house, 1760'ish, so I've spent time/money insulating and upgrading the windows. The electric HW timer works to reduce cost - if the household has a regular schedule - it works very well; not so well with variables (teenagers/their friends/other guests); learning curve.
I'm (im)patiently waiting for better LED's; very efficient (small surface area - solar collectors and efficient PV units).
Solar is good, if you have the right exposure - if not- conservation is a better bet!
It's simple to put a "timer" on the furnace. Just replace the room thermostat with a programmable one.
The water heater is another story. If it's an electric, one can plug the heater into a timer and then it will only draw current when the timer allows. This is done in some areas with high peak demand, and your power company can advise you. There may be a break on your power bill depending what programs your powwer supplier may have. However, be aware that most electric water heaters are 240v, not 120v, and their current draw is significant. The timer device must be equiped to handle 240 circuits and the current draw. This eliminates most ordinary timers. (In the US, 240 Vac household circuits are really a pair of 120 Vac circuits that are 180 degrees apart from each other.)
If your heater is gas fired, that is another story. I'm not schooled in the required equipment for automatically changing the state of the gas valve/thermostat. In all gas water heaters that I have seen, the gas valve/thermostat is an intergal part of the heater. These valves, however, do have a "pilot" position on the valve knob. Merely turn the valve to "pilot" to prevent the main gas valve from turing on. I do not recommend operating this valve on a regular basis, say one or twice a day. These valves should be operated maybe once per month to maintain an operable condition - refer to the instructions that came with the heater. I suspect that thousands of cycles of moving the control stem will eventually wear the seals. Again, consult the manufacturer.
Also, what ever rigging you apply, it must meet local codes and inspection.
The big box store sell electric water heater timers - they are NOT plug type systems. You must wire them into the line for the water heater - or more correctly it should be wired in by an electrician.
We've been using them on our two water heaters for nearly twenty years. An hour twice a day "ON" time is sufficient for keeping the water hot enough for most uses, like washing hands, and our dishwasher has its own water heating. If more than one person wants a shower or bath, or if it is laundry day, the timers have a push button that will turn the water heater on - the next time the timer is scheduled to turn it off it will in case we forget to turn if off after the extra heavy use is done.
Most modern water heaters are well enough insulated that they will hold their heat for many hours without additional heating cycles, so an hour or two a day is probably all most people need it to be on anyway.
I don't know about timers for gas water heaters - I'm all electric. ;-)
Here is a link that might be useful: Intermatic24 Hour Water Heater Timer 250 Volt
My gas water heater has electronic ignition. To turn it off, you just flip a little light duty toggle switch. I would think that a timer could wired in series with this toggle switch, and would only be handling a small amount of current?
On electric water heaters, the better new ones have Energy Factors around 0.95 -- this would seem to leave little energy for a timer to save? Less than 5%?
I guess older electrics would allow greater savings.
Our water heaters are very old - one is the original one that came with the house in 1979 and we put the other one in about 1988. So they are very inefficient and I'm sure the timers save us money.
I have not checked to see what we'll put in the new house. The builder likes gas tankless water heaters, but I insist on an all electric house (for reasons that have nothing to do with efficiency and that are probably irrational, LOL). I am thinking of putting in a solar water heat system and just using an electric water heater as the tank and for backup.
A word of caution on turning down your water heater.
The old guy next door turned his down .. or perhaps even off when he thought it wasn't needed then turned it on, or up when he wanted to take a shower.
If you do this ... call your health department first...this will cause bacteria to grow in the tank and you can get VERY ILL...
The neighbor contacted ( spelling) Liengonairs desease.
FROM THE TANK.. so be ware....
Our Plumbing Apprenticeship class has been working with the local gas company on a project for two years to study what the actual standby loss is from a gas water heater per month.
Twelve different 60gallon water heaters were all set up side by side with a common header for cold water supply and one hose bibb on the output side of the tanks. Each water heater has a separate gas meter. All twelve water heaters were filled, the the thermostats set to the code maximum of 125degF and left standing with absolutely no load coming off the heaters.
At the end of each month the gas meter is read and the cost of operation is computed at the local residential gas service rate.
In mid summer when the ambient air is warmer the average is $4.44/mo and the average in mid winter when the ambient temps drop to about 45deg at the test site the average is $5.31/mo.
The overall average per anum worked out to $5.02/mo.
The final conclusion was the the standby loss from the water heater is equal to about the price of one cup of coffee from Starbucks, hardly worth the cost of any high tech bells and whistles to try to reduce it.
Lazypup, good information. I used a timer on an electric water heater for several years and saved much money. There were no issues with mold growth or fear of legionnaires. I recall seeing a timer kit years ago for gas water heaters. A few years ago I checked into it and am pretty sure it is no longer made. I also checked into making a timer and found the diy drawback would be the need for a valve to shut the gas off to the burner.
In your test the water heaters had no load. Also, I think temp recovery time is a factor. With a timer I found our household didn't really need hot hot water all the time, which helped reduce use. I think there are some other factors worth noting.
With high gas prices I'd think the water heater manufacturers would include a timer if it was cost effective. Maybe I'm naive. I have to note the price of natural gas isn't regulated where I live, so I'd definitely use a gas water heater timer if one were available.
Don't do it. Rodents will climb down the vent pipe in search of tasty Legionaire's Disease. So they will eat all of that - so no worries about the disease. Unfortunately, the rodents will then poop in your water heater. Is that what you want to shower in?
Gas water heater timers are safe and can save up to 36% on your gas bill, extend the life of your water heater and can be used with most home automated devices. You can also use the timer of your choice with one particular model. See the best on the market. Google Gas Water Heater Timer. This timer has proven technology.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (771 votes).
In short: Why did I forget about that hill???In full: Second time here, and 5.30 quicker, so must be doing something right!!! Either that or the magnificent crowd support makes you find another gear!!The best half I have run - from great organisation, fantastic crowds, to the marshalls and scouts who were outstanding!Big question for me: Why can't Brighton learn from this? It wasn't just the fact that the weather was better, but even the parking was only £3 rather than the £16 we got stung along the coast!Can't say anything about toilets etc as was in the pub before and after so all great as far as I'm concerned and will definitely be back!Well done and thank you to the organisers and all concerned!! Date of review: March 22, 2010
In short: Ran a PB - Crowds were Fab !!In full: Ran a PB which was awesome ! Course was a challenge but the crowds were fantastic !!Date of review: March 22, 2010
In short: A great challenge, well organised and friendly.In full: Last year, Hastings was my first ever race and I came it at 2.15, wheezing with asthma. A year on, with the FLM and two more halfs under my belt, I came back to give Queensway what for.Delighted to report that I came in with a PB at 1:40:27!The speed work at Clapham Runners must be paying off, because I felt like I had an extra gear and stayed in it, chewing up that hill and bouncing down the other side.Thank you, Hastings, for the terrific organisation again and for helping me slay a dragon. And well done to everyone who finished.A particular thank you to the British Red Cross. My running mate passed out ten yards before the finish and they looked after him brilliantly. They even got his number swiped and collected a medal for him. Fred and Sue, you're angels!Date of review: March 22, 2010
In short: A great runIn full: More toilets and a t-shirt would be nice. Great support throughout the punishing opening 7 miles rewarded with great sprints downhill thereafter....back next year.Date of review: March 22, 2010
In short: best support ever and all the way roundDate of review: March 22, 2010
In short: Some tough climbs but I keep coming back year after year for more - excellent organisation!Date of review: March 22, 2010
In short: Testing course. Great atmosphere and excellent organisation.In full: Why cant people get in the correct starting zone? It's not that difficult or are people confusing their ambitions with their capabilities LOL. Date of review: March 21, 2010
In short: A race of three thirdsIn full: Slow ascents for the first third, downhill sprints (with a few additional climbs) for the second and what seemed like a run along the entire Sussex coast for the last (which was probably only a couple of miles).I completed it and because it was my first half marathon got the inevitable PB. Well organised, lots of local support although at times it felt like the Tour de France with people ringing bells at misty summits. I was the one being asked by the medics if I needed a wheelchair at the end but am feeling a quiet sense of achievement right now. Date of review: March 21, 2010
In short: Well done againIn full: 26th year and you can tell! Well organised, very friendly crowds, and a few eye popping hills up and knee popping hills down!Date of review: March 21, 2010
In short: superb eventIn full: Fantastic atmosphere with church choir, orchestra, lots of spectators all way.My favourite half.Steady uphill till mile 7, there are even two smaller incline after that. Then steep downhill - hard on the knees. Somehow I still run the season's PB at Hastings, maybe because of the fantastic supporting crowds. Just water at this race, you may need to bring your own carbs. No goody bag for late finishers, the medal is nice, I would appreciate something to actually put it on. The final stretch on the promenade feels longer than it is.Date of review: March 21, 2010
