iSoftStone is another company that hires home-based workers for search evaluation (similar to companies like Leapforce, Lionbridge, etc.). They do not always have openings and I cannot confirm they are hiring for it now. They also occasionally have other types of crowdsourcing work like transcription, but this review is primarily focusing on the search engine evaluation position. iSoftStone has been recruiting people in the US for their search evaluator
Work From Home Ads Quality Rating for ZeroChaos
ZeroChaos is a reputable company that occasionally has openings for work from home ads quality raters. The company used to be known as Workforce Logic, so you might already be familiar with how they operate. Anyway, a job like this is a great option for many people who want to work at home because it's completely non-phone, flexible work. If you have tried applying with or working for Lionbridge, Leapforce, Appen Butler Hill, or any other company that hires for similar positions.
Working at Home for Lionbridge – Non Phone Work
Lionbridge has changed a lot since the last time I wrote about them, so I decided to write some updated information since so many of you are looking for non-phone work at home, and search engine evaluation certainly fits the bill for that. Lionbridge has a lot of different types of opportunities available and they […]
Work From Home Search Engine Evaluation & Companies That Hire
I know many people are interested in what a search engine evaluator does, so I'm going to try to explain it to you. I hope this helps some! What is a search engine evaluator? Basically, this is a person who evaluates search engine results to determine if they are relevant or not to the term […]
Appen Butler Hill Work at Home Search Engine Evaluation
Appen Butler Hill is a company that regularly hires people to work from home doing search engine evaluation. They've been around for about 16 years, and they are rumored to pay better than Leapforce and Lionbridge — two of their top competing companies. If you're unclear on what search engine evaluation actually is, you might want […]
Leapforce Work at Home Search Engine Evaluation
Leapforce hires independent contractors from a variety of different countries to evaluate search engine results and improve them for a major search engine. They also have openings for search quality judges. Job specifics are sketchy due to current employees being required to sign non-disclosure agreements, but in general the work involves determining whether or not certain search terms match up well with different web pages and/or video, images, etc. Even though this sounds fairly easy, many people describe the work as being incredibly hard.

Never Mix Business & Friendship
Copyright 2001 Terri Seymour
I have heard it said on the net that you should not
become friends with people whom you do business with.
I say, "Why not?" Building personal relationships is
the foundation of your business success.
Because business should be business and there is no
room for making friends and socializing. Friendship
interferes with a business relationship by keeping
people from making the right business choice for the
sake of the friendship.
I say, "No way!" Friends understand the business
decisions you have to make because they sometimes have
had to make the same ones. If they cannot, they are not
a friend!
I have been in the Internet marketing business for two
years and have made numerous close friends and many
casual friends. These relationships have helped me
personally and professionally.
Personally, I have had the pleasure of getting to know
people from all over the world. Interesting people.
Professionally, I have learned from all these people
and some of them have become my customers. When you
build this relationship, you also build trust and
people will be more likely to buy from someone they
Treat everyone you meet with respect, courtesy and
consideration. This will go a long way in building
friendships and your business. Because in doing this,
you are building yourself, your reputation and your
character. If you appear aloof and rigid, you will
be looked upon with skepticism and mistrust. This
will do nothing for your business or reputation, but
it will probably keep you from making any friends. If
that is your goal, you will then do well.
I have written several articles on how we should treat
each other because I have seen some people be rude or
even downright cruel to others for absolutely no reason.
I guarantee a person with that kind of outlook and
attitude will not get far in the business world or
their personal life.
When I first came online, I was amazed by how much
people were willing to help others and how so many
people built online friendships. It was one of the
things that attracted me to this business.
Places to start building these relationships:
So if someone advises you not to mix friendship with
business, think about the consequences of having such
an opinion. And simply ask them, "Why not?"

An autodiscovery system for configuration information about an HVAC system being provided to a controller or thermostat. Configurations or parameters may be autodiscovered from communicating equipment. Also, this equipment may be manually selected and set without affecting the autodiscovery status of the remaining equipment.

12. An autodiscovery system for an HVAC system comprising:
a controller; and
at least one communicating HVAC apparatus;
at least one non-communicating HVAC apparatus;
a first link of communication between the controller and the at least one communicating HVAC apparatus for communicating configuration information;
a second link of communication between the controller and the at least one communicating HVAC apparatus for communicating control information;
an equipment interface module having an input connected to an output of the controller and having an output connected to an input of the at least one non-communicating apparatus for communicating control information between the controller and the non-communicating apparatus; and
the controller may autodiscover one or more configuration information about the at least one communicating HVAC apparatus;
an autodiscovered parameter may be manually overridden without changing other autodiscovered parameters; and
the controller is a thermostat.
The present invention pertains to heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and particularly to controllers of HVAC systems. More particularly, the invention pertains to controller or thermostat interactions with HVAC systems.
The present invention is a controller system having selective autodiscovery.
HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) systems may include about anything that relates to air control, comfort and quality for various spaces. In the related art of non-communicating HVAC systems, an installer may manually configure the thermostat for proper control of the heating, ventilation and cooling equipment. Configuring is indicating to the thermostat the kind of equipment that it is to interface with for effectively good control. For example, a configuration may indicate whether the system equipment includes a heat pump. The configuration may further indicate the number of compressor stages, auxiliary heating stages, emergency heating stages, whether a dual fuel arrangement is used (e.g., both a heat pump and furnace), and the cycling rate used for each stage, among other things. For a non-heat pump version, the configuration description may indicate the number of heating stages, whether the heating equipment is electric or fossil fuel, and it may indicate the cycling rate to use for each stage.
However, with a network in an HVAC system, the heating and cooling equipment may communicate configuration information to the thermostat, thereby automatically configuring the thermostat system without an installer having to manually enter the information about the equipment.
A thermostat or parameter controller may to some extent be a communicating device and capable of automatically discovering a configuration (which might, for example, have a lack of or an exception for cycle rates which could be manually set) of an HVAC system. Previous to the present application, such thermostat had just one mode, either an autodiscovery or manual setup, relative to a component having manual settings to be input. In that system, the installer could override the automatically discovered configuration through an interface on the thermostat for a manual settings input. However, in the system, if any parameter was overwritten with a manual input, the thermostat ceased autodiscovery of any parameters until the installer restarted autodiscovery again, which would autodiscover all of the parameters again, including the manual input of the autodiscovery scheme. In other words, the installer could not selectively designate a parameter to be autodiscovered and another parameter to be manually selected or entered.
There may be systems where autodiscovery is available. However, if some items are to be manual, then they may be all manual. If some items are autodiscovered, then all of them may be autodiscovered.
In the related art and the present system, there may be a limited number of autodiscovery items. For the related art, it may be an all or nothing autodiscovery, not selective manual setting of certain autodiscovery items. The autodiscovery and manual setup may be coded in. There may be one keystroke for the thermostat.
The present system may have a different autodiscovery system than that of the related art. The thermostat of the present system may have several modes including autodiscovery and manual setup or input of information about a configuration of the equipment in the system.
An additional part of the present system is that when a parameter is set to "autodiscover", the setup menu may show that the parameter is autodiscovered and also show what the "discovered" value is, i.e., "enabled" or "disabled". An installer may change any value, whether autodiscovered or manually entered, to another value. Further, the installer may override the automatically discovered value as necessary without affecting the autodiscovery of the other equipment, components or parameters. This characteristic of the present system is of significance.
This sensor approach may serve as an "autodiscovered" enable/disable of the control algorithm. If a sensor is installed, the feature is provided; if the sensor is not installed, the feature is not provided. In the present system, the setup menu for a sensor may have possible values of "disabled", "enabled", or "autodiscovered". If "disabled" is selected, any sensor values received by the control algorithm may be ignored, and the feature not be provided. If "enabled" is selected, then the sensor values received by the control algorithm may be accepted and the feature be provided. If, for some reason, the sensor values stop being received (e.g., the sensor is removed, is faulty or the like), a fault indication may be displayed. If "autodiscovered" is selected, then the control algorithm feature may be provided as long as sensor values continue to be received, but a fault indication should not displayed or generated when the sensor values stop.
The present invention may provide individual or selective autodiscovery and manual items. The autodiscovery of a configuration may include equipment type and existence, number of stages, blower pressure and number of speeds, manufacturer's suggestions, cycles per hour settings, rates, speeds, and so on.
In the present invention, the value that is to be autodiscovered may be changed. If the latter occurs (i.e., manual setting), the other autodiscovered items may remain as such. Anything may be set manually without disturbing the autodiscovered items.
Another part of the present system may relate to discovery of sensors. In a communicating HVAC system, sensors may be added to the system. These sensors may sense parameters, such as temperature, humidity, pressure, and so forth, and communicate the values of these parameters to a portion, e.g., a parameter controller or thermostat, of the system that implements a control algorithm. If a sensor which the control algorithm requires is not present, then the control algorithm cannot execute, and thus a result for the value of an absent parameter expected from the control algorithm would not be provided.
The autodiscovery HVAC system may tell the thermostat or controller its configuration. There may be a user interface which notes the kind of equipment that the thermostat is controlling. A communication system may be utilized. There may be relay communication with the equipment. The kind of equipment or component that is to be autodiscovered by the thermostat may include, for example, a heat pump, air conditioner, number of stages, dual fuel, and so on, via autodiscovery.
From some equipment, which is part of an HVAC system having an autodiscovery feature, there might not be autodiscovery, or information about the equipment or component which is not indicated to the thermostat, but there still may be parameter control by the thermostat or controller of the equipment. For instance, if some equipment is autodiscovered in the HVAC system and some is not, then in the latter situation, the configuration and values may be set up or entered manually. Communication of the thermostat or controller to the latter equipment may be via an equipment interface module. This module may need to know the configuration of the equipment it is talking to or providing control signals, and it may get information about the equipment from the thermostat or controller. If a certain piece of equipment is to be manually set up, then it may need to be connected to the equipment interface module for thermostat control purposes.
In an illustrative example of an HVAC system, one may have heating that is autodiscovered and air conditioning that is not. Here, the furnace may communicate with the thermostat. The furnace may tell the thermostat about itself, e.g., its configuration. Since the air conditioner may not be communicating with the thermostat, it may need an equipment interface module for the thermostat to turn it on and off via relay control of the air conditioning for temperature of a space. The thermostat might be regarded as not being compatible with the air conditioner if some of its elements are not recognized in an autodiscovery. In another instance, if there is hydronic heat, then there typically would be no fan as part of the configuration. On the other hand, there may a furnace, gas or electric, having a number of stages, and so on. There may be humidity equipment with a humidifier and dehumidifier. There may be ventilation equipment with air cleaners, UV treatment devices to purify the air, a fan with one stage (i.e., a common on/off mechanism may be just one stage), a single speed air conditioning, where a stage may be a speed of the compressor, multi-stage gas valves having, for example, three stages such as high, medium, and low. There may be cycles per hour settings. These items may be or might not be subject to autodiscovery; however, they may constitute at least part of an HVAC system configuration.
The thermostat of the present system may send out a query for configuration information. Also, the information may be automatically sent to the thermostat or controller during power up, or periodically. The system may be operated with a microprocessor as part of the thermostat or controller. For the manual setup by the installer, there may be a user interface on the processor. Also, there may be connections of the present system to other devices such as telephones, a zoning system, and so on. The system may be operated remotely via various connections.
The set autodiscover may operate on a continuous basis in the present system. Its autodiscovery may indicate the default, for example, for a gas furnace with two stages, and not necessarily a manufacturer recommended default. For instance, if there is no furnace, then there is no default because of a lack of presence of the furnace. The present system may be continuously discovered, so updates can be incorporated. This system may be applicable to home thermostats.
The system may be enabled with various programs. The following may be an illustrative instance for autodiscovery and/or manual entry of various components involving heating and cooling equipment.
A first link 41 of communication, as a part of the autodiscovery, from the respective component 21, 22, and so on, to the controller 33 may include configuration information such as apparatus model, apparatus serial number, heating cycles per unit time, compressor stages, cooling cycle rate, apparatus existence, blower pressure, heating stages, air purification specifications, humidifier stages, dehumidifier stages, equipment type, HVAC parameters, recommended settings, zone descriptions, sensor information, and other items.
A second link of communication 42 may include control information, for example, parameters such as temperature settings scheduled for certain time periods, from the controller 33 to the respective component 21, 22, and so on.
Besides the communicating and non-communicating components or equipment noted herein, there may be additionally different kinds of components and equipment. Illustrative examples may include sensors 45. There may be autodiscovery information 51, such as configuration items, about the sensors 45 to the thermostat or controller 33. The controller 33 may provide certain directive or controlling information 52, such as selection or adjustment signals, to the sensors 45. Sensor data 53 may be conveyed to parameter controller 33. If there are sensors 45 which are not autodiscovered, configuration information may be manually input to one or more of these sensors 45 in a selective manner. Configuration or setting information may also be manually input for sensors 45 which are autodiscoverable. There may be an interface module, similar to interface module 26 or 28, inserted in the link between the controller 33 and sensors 45 which are not autodiscovered.
The thermostat or controller 11, 33, 38 may be remotely operated via telephonic 61, internet 62 or wireless 63 connections to respective external systems. Also, autodiscovery and manual inputs of systems 10 and 20 may be observed and/or effected via these media connections.
In the present specification, some of the matter may be of a hypothetical or prophetic nature although stated in another manner or tense.
Although the invention has been described with respect to at least one illustrative example, many variations and modifications will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the present specification. It is therefore the intention that the appended claims be interpreted as broadly as possible in view of the prior art to include all such variations and modifications.

Even in France, where wine tradition reigns, vineyards are changing. A new study by Franceagrimer, the national agriculture trade organization, has found notable changes in vineyard composition in the past 30 years. Traditional grapes, such as Cinsault and Carignan, are being pulled out in favor of internationally known varieties such as Merlot and Syrah. Some worry that unique wines are being lost in the process.

When my coworker, Ashley asked me to try on a couple of prom dresses to model for Project Princess, I told her she was crazy! I'm too old for prom dresses!!! Then I found this fabulous pair of shoes... and then the hunt was on to find a dress.
As frustrating as it was for an already long ceremony to pause for a seemingly unnecessary musical number, all was immediately forgiven when Pink took to the 2014 Oscars stage to perform a rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" as part of a 'Wizard of Oz' tribute. Sure, that iconic musical fantasy may have nothing to do with anything happening in or around the broadcast, but does anyone really need a reason to celebrate one of the greatest films ever made?
Whoa! Lady Gaga turned up at the 2014 Oscars in a pretty pink dress with a flowing scarf, but it was incredibly tame by Ma Monster standards.
Anne Hathaway was at the center of a fashion storm at last year's Oscars, during which she picked up the Best Supporting Actress Oscar, for swapping out her planned Valentino for a ho-hum pink Prada dress since it was too similar to what her co-star Amanda Seyfried was wearing. How did Hathaway do this year?

One Direction hit the fragrance market last year, with their best-selling Our Moment, a scent designed for Directioners, who are, of course, female. They are following their first fragrance up and expanding their perfume portfolio with a limited edition aura, the details of which were revealed by the handsomely disheveled Harry Styles.
"Remake" is often Hollywood code for "rehashed, lazy cash grab," but sometimes a basic premise can be given a refreshing new spin with the right cast and crew behind it. Starring Kevin Hart, Regina Hall, Michael Ealy and Joy Bryant, 'About Last Night' is the rare remake that justifies its existence by being freshly fun and thoroughly entertaining.

It is one of the worst apartment complexes you could ever possibly imagine going to. It's infested with roaches, bed bugs, and mice. The hallways are almost always dirty from the occupants, despite maintenance efforts to clean them once a week. Good luck trying to have your AC, fridge, dishwasher, or any other house hold appliances fixed. It takes forever to get them to come to your home, and when they do come, the appliances are only fixed for a couple months. My fridge was broken for 75% of my 12 month lease. Also, it's common for the landlord to find some reason to up your rent when you've decided to leave. She'll keep your deposit by saying "Your apartment is infested, you've broken the appliances, you've damaged the walls and floors." But actually, it was like that when you got there. You just didn't know. she will enter your apartment, often unannounced, and come into your room while you're sleeping and invade your space. I've seen some disgusting things in my own apartment, my neighbor's, AND just in the general community between domestic violence, drug use, littering, unsupervised children, etc. It's a terrible community, filled with terrible neighbors, and run by a terrible faculty.

This place is horrid. U work and come home and pay to be eaten alive by bed bugs, roaches, the 17 people that live above me constantly flush the toilet and now I have a puddle of fecal water in my bathroom. Some kids broke my bedroom window, I have no smoke detectors, the stove in the apartment upstairs caved in and is coming through my ceiling. There is a pool but not operating. I asked rita (my landlord) if she can have an exterminator come Into my apartment and she suggested that I move. She also likes to visit frequently and when I'm not there she writes me notes in my personal journal by my bed. Smh I was half naked on one occasion she decided to pay me a visit. She screamed at me in front of my children because I told her about the bats that got into the building and we're known for biting. Do not move here.

I have now lived at Quartefield Crossing for a year and a half. I have not had any problems here, save morons pulling the fire alarm a couple of times. Cops and ambulences are generally a normal thing here there have been a couple of drug busts, and a couple of murder suspects arrested, if you set these things aside (these things can happen anywhere) it is not a bad place to live. It all depends on where you live within the complex, and who you interact with. If you keep to yourself, and pay your rent on time there are no problems and the staff will treat you with respect. I have NEVER had a problem with Ms. Rita, or any of the other staff, but maybe that's because I have only been late on my rent one time since being here. Pay your rent on time you wont get evicted, if people followed thier leases there would be much less problems here!

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
11 Jan 2014 00:36 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Iraq, Syria
Clashes between Syrian rebel and fighters from an al-Qaeda-linked group have killed nearly 500 people in northern Syria over the past week, according to a monitoring group .
The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says that at least 482 people have been killed in the fighting that has pitted a loose alliance of rebel brigades with different ideologies against the fighters of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).
The toll includes 240 rebels, 157 ISIL fighters and 85 civilians, the group said on Friday.
The fighting has spread across four provinces in opposition-held parts of northern Syria since it began last Friday, causing large-scale supply shortages.
Reports say ISIL has alienated other factions over the past several months by using harsh tactics to implement its strict interpretation of Islamic law, and by its kidnapping and killing of opponents.
Live Box 2012108933861442
However, ISIL fighters made progress on Friday in their campaign to retake al-Raqqa from rebel groups.
The region came under ISIL's sway a few months after President Bashar al-Assad's regime lost control in March 2013 of al-Raqqa, the provincial capital.
"In al-Raqqa, ISIL is winning because its supply routes [to Iraq] are open there," Alaaeddine, an activist in the country's north, said.
ISIL, which includes mostly foreign fighters among its ranks, has its roots in al-Qaeda's Iraqi affiliate, and first appeared in the Syrian conflict in late spring last year.
However, in Aleppo and Idlib, ISIL is on the defensive, activists said.
"In Idlib there are practically no ISIL bases left, as is the case in Aleppo city and the west of the province," Alaaeddine said.
While rebels initially welcomed self-styled "holy warriors" in Syria, Alaaeddine said ISIL's abuses and quest for hegemony has turned "90 percent of people" in opposition areas against it.
In the central Hama province, Free Syrian Army rebels captured fighters from the ISIL after storming the group's base on Thursday.
The latest fighting between the rebels and the ISIL came a day after Assad's troops killed dozens of rebel fighters in the central city of Homs, both state media and activists reported.
The official SANA news agency said on Friday the military killed at least 37 rebels in the Matahen area of Homs.
Activists put the death toll at 45 people and said the fighters were killed as they tried to break a siege imposed by Assad forces since June 2012.

Grace of Eucharistic Love - 2 Pillars #22
Version 8 and above required to view videos
Uploaded by AirMaria on May 11, 2013
Visit to the Blessed Sacrament and how He is not loved and a visit with Mary and how God's Grace does not abandon us. Meditations read in front of the exposed Blessed Sacrament for our Daily Holy Hour at our Bloomington, Indiana friary from the two books: "Real Presence"ť by St Peter Julian Eymard and "A Month with Mary"ť by Fr. Dolindo Ruotolo Ave Maria! Day #10: The Grace of God MARY: The mercy of God never abandons you, little creature; it has a way of overcoming your wretchedness and encompasses you with grace. Grace is a supernatural gift of God with which he penetrates hearts, renews them, elevates them, transforms them into himself. What water is to the arid earth grace is for your heart. The Holy Spirit, who is the substantial love of the Father and the Son, consumes your misery with his gifts if only you cast it into those divine flames and thus he transforms you into a new being. Grace is the support of human freedom because it is its guide, its help, its lifting up "¦ Your soul is well established when it is under the influence of this divine grace. Do you feel drowsy in your spirit? Lift your eyes up to God, call upon the Holy Spirit and beg him to awaken you to life and to divine love. Do you feel depressed and disheartened? Call upon this infinite love in order to be lifted up; thus you will become accustomed to live in a spirit of continual offering and you will touch with your hand what is impossible to you, but very possible to the grace of God! You see me so rich and great. You are astounded at this, yet all of this greatness was the work of the grace of God; you say this to me yourself in your greeting: Hail Mary, full of grace. The grace of God is not frugal or stingy because it is the expansion of love. You must, therefore, distrust yourself and trust much in the grace of God "¦ Come to me, little flower of Jesus; I will rearrange your little leaves, I will revive you, I will immerse you in the mercy of Jesus. God has made me the channel of that grace which must enrich and enliven you. ASPIRATION: Mary, Mother of grace, have pity on me. LITTLE WORK: Recite five Hail Marys to beg from the Heart of Mary a treasure of graces. About the Meditations To Download Audio go to http://airmaria.com?p=35594

Garden Show Season
Drum roll please .......... It's show season !
Seattle has already had their Garden Show. Boston , Philadelphia, and San Francisco are coming up within the next few weeks.
Small and large towns across the country are organizing their garden shows in hopes of inspiring the gardening spirit and perhaps raise some much needed funds for their coffers.
I LOVE attending garden shows !
The creative garden design, the craftsmanship, the horticulture, the plant shopping, the garden club exhibits showcasing beautiful new plant introductions and the chance to inhale the intoxicating smell of spring after a long chilly winter season.
This year the San Francisco Garden show is pairing food growing, food preparation and wine with the show. - Yeah, pour me another glass of that Pinot ... locally grown of course !
I think it is a pretty good idea incorporating veggie growing considering the impact veggie gardens have had on peoples lives , especially in these recent hard economic times.
And no one ever said a vegetable garden doesn't have to be void of style and panache.
As an example have you ever seen Rosemary Verey's potager garden ? - Swoon !
Cabbage never looked so good.
I have a few practical tips to share when going Garden Show Gawking.
Where comfy shoes - You'll be walking a lot and the surface may be hard concrete.
Bring a small note pad - There may be something worth writing down.
Sling a camera over your shoulder - for those Kodak horticultural moments.
Carry a modest size sturdy tote bag for a potential purchases and the hand out literature.
Pack a lunch if you're on a budget. - that means more money for that glass of Pinot or that hot new perennial aching to go home with you.
Do you have anything to add in order to get the most out of the day or a favorite show experience ?
By the way, The Pacific Orchid Exposition in San Francisco opens today and goes through the weekend.
It's Orchid Orgasmic. ... and some pretty nice looking bromeliads too.
At the Boston Garden show, we usually wear boots, snow boots. But fortunately not this year!! Maybe I can even wear my new Toms ballet flats?
I think an iPhone is a must. Not only do you need to take pictures, but then you need to text them to friends, post them on Facebook and pintrest. Its also handy if there is by chance something you need to google.
My favorite part is how my and my friends plants. orchids etc are far better than those that win best in show from the Boston garden club! Oh, and the wine.
I forgot about the snowy weather and ( wincing !) snow boots.
The last time I went to the Boston Show I remember the icy slush and how good of a trooper my grandmother was for wading thru it without losing her Yankee smile.
Speaking of shoes, I strongly recommend closed toe shoes when attending the Chelsea Flower Show. I've never seen such vicious little old ladies weilding their canes.
In Amsterdam , at the Floriade Show , held once every 10 years, I wore my high top hiking boots and shorts. I must of been stoned. It was so friggin hot that day and I got the worst looking sun burn that stopped at my mid calf. I had to walk around the rest of Europe with that stupid neopolitan colored leg look.
For all those 'modern' people; definately an iphone. - good tip !
Extra tips for Chelsea
1. Dress appropriately. Despite the fact that this is almost impossible at least make the effort. You will need: wellington boots and a raincoat and headgear to protect you from the rain and the pointy bits of other peoples umbrellas. You will also need a complete change of clothing for when it stops raining and or when you venture into one of the many sweat lodges where the flowers are. You will need to carry water to replace the sweat and an electrolyte replacement product now that salt tablets are passe. You may also need a waterproof covering for your iphone thingy.
2. You will need to bring a packed lunch (preferably cucumber sandwiches with the crust off and cut into quarters)to avoid paying silly money for silly food.
I may write more later but I am quite exhausted just thinking about it.
Canada Blooms will soon be hitting Toronto (Mid-March or so).
I've been going for the past few years, and there's a been a very noticeable decline in the number and scale of show gardens. Yes, there are still some of the bigger names holding on. However, the number of mid-sized firms doing smaller intimate garden displays has gone down drastically. I'm guessing that in this day and age, there are for more effective ways of finding new customers.
It seems like the balance has been made up exhibitors selling merchandise - items that can actually return a profit immediately, rather than design firms marketing to future prospective clients.
There also seems to be an increase in non-profit organizations and municipal governments (and their respective agencies) getting involved. Perhaps that may be the future of Canada Blooms?
I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed such a shift, but I'd be interested to hear others' comments and perceptions.
- Audric
Audric - I've given up going to Canada Blooms I always find it disappointing. I've never seen anything there to inspire me, it's too early to be buying any plants and I haven't found anything else worth buying in the marketplace section.

802.11ac chip-sets are just now making it to the market place and range could be a factor because as engineers we look at SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio)Since 802.11 is a CDMA type protocol where the streams are all checking for packet collisions packets have to be retransmitted to ensure quality which is a 802.11 fail for "Quality" service. No matter how the processors and wifi chip-sets are stacked it will always be WIfi.
A better a solution would be wireless gear called Cambium which used to be canopy. With their technology Giga-towers can be deployed for less than half the cost of a cellular deployment and do a 2 fold deployment in fixed services as well as mobility to provide access to a mobile wifi AP that has great range and throughput.
Just my 2 cents WIFI has a place and its not last mile.
"San Francisco accepted a bid by Google and EarthLink in early 2006. It was dead by late 2007. EarthLink bet big on city-wide Wi-Fi because its only viable business, dial-up-modem internet access, had plummeted with the spread of DSL and cable modems. Several regulatory and court decisions had left most of America with wiring to the house owned exclusively by incumbents. Telecoms were not required to give other firms non-discriminatory access. Nor were they obliged to offer the same wholesale pricing as their in-house internet divisions. The penalties by regulators for tardy or faulty installations, if levied at all, came late and were meagre. And in any case, the Supreme Court ruled meant that cable firms did not have to provide access to competitors."
What a rubbish decision!
France's regulator, the ARCEP, did precisely the opposite. And has a consequence, we have today one of the most competitive broadband market in the world: 24mbit internet (optical fiber is getting installed too), free calls to mobile, landline, and 150 foreign countries, 200 TV channels with a set top box (DVR...), and a host of other services for 35 euros a month...
Considering that Google is pursuing fiber to the home in some of the lower cost markets, I don't understand why they don't use the latest gigabit 802.11ac with rooftop adapters (like in Mountain View) with fiber to the access point? This should be about half the cost of fiber to the home which is critical since they say they won't come to California because of the cost.
It's been well known for decades that that half the cost of any home cabled solution (cable TV, DSL, telephone, etc.) is the dedicated cable to the home whether copper or fiber due to absence of multiplexing (economies of scale). This has been key to free or lowcost WiFi. Even the 35 year old cellphone system uses this concept where the only single user dedicated piece of equipment is the cell/smart phone. But the cellphone system doesn't have the data capacity necessary for home use because the cells are too large for the available bandwidth.
802.11ac should be able to deliver 20-30Mbs at 5GHz to the rooftop of each of 30+ homes within a 100+ meter radius of the fiber backbone fed access node, leaving the 2.4Ghz band to connect to devices within the home. A directional antenna (23db) will probably be necessary to get 100-200 meter range. Trees in line can probably be avoided by pointing at another access node if they are spaced every 100-200 meters in a neighborhood. This can even provide for up to 4 HD TVs from a remote server using MPEG4 streaming (like NetFlix) without the cost of a settop box, avoiding the inefficient cable TV broadcast model where hundreds of unused channels are sent to each settop box which seems to be the only, real reason that Google needs gigabit speeds.
In fact, I don't know why Google isn't using streaming with a virtual settop for all of their fiber TV since they are supporting Netflix with local servers (since Netflix is now the single biggest user of long distance internet traffic.) It may be that it doesn't reduce the cost (except for one time settop box) since you can't get cheaper sub-gigabit fiber. No one has a credible, popular future application that requires more than about 10Mbs per user. High quality TV or movies have been around for 50+ years, so once you satisfy this data rate, you reach a technical speed plateau like the 600mph limit of commercial jetliners. Even future virtual reality games or experiences are probably mostly speed limited by the HD video where the user is looking.
802.11ac isn't designed to provide long-distance point-to-multipoint service. The farther a client device and the base station are, the lower the data communication rate, and the more "time" each bit takes to transmit. 30 devices within 100 meters of a single base station might be lucky to get a consistent 5 Mbps with 802.11ac, possibly requiring indoor boosters.
Directional antennas are, by the nature, directional, so all devices have to be within the scope of the antenna focus, which limits the area of service as well.
There are a number of more reliable point-to-multipoint wireless protocols, WiMax among them, designed to be more robust in these sorts of circumstances. In the market, none of these has been able to compete effectively with cellular mobile technologies like LTE.
G.F. These are good technical objections. I agree after looking at some Cisco and Broadcom range specs. maximum data rate degrades below about 10 meters. With a 23dbi antenna/adapter on the rooftop of a home pointed at the omnidirectional access node (so it doesn't reduce coverage area), the range should increase about 10X to 100 meters. However, next generation devices using 8 antenna MIMO beaming look like they can double the range at the same data rate (or double data rate at the same range). However, even if only 5-10 homes are served per access node (under 100 meter range), then the cost reduction would be significant over dedicated fiber to the home. To get further range, it may be possible to petition the FCC for a higher gain (inherently more directional) roof top antenna. A 6db increase would double the range.
I get that 802.11ac was not designed for this application but rarely is this a durable objection. The original 802.11 wasn't developed for home but business use since it's an Ethernet extension, and only businesses primarily use Ethernet then and now. Also, many users have practically extended WiFi range to many miles using directional antennas on each end even though it was not designed for this application; partly because microwave systems designed for this are actually more expensive (from lack of volume market) and are even less robust from rain attenuation (due to higher frequencies). Even most of Google's free WiFi (outdoor) is a usage not envisioned in the standard. Like 90% of all IEEE protocols which don't go anywhere, WiMax failed for a variety of reasons but in this application it doesn't have sufficient data rate. Similarly, I have doubts about how compelling 802.11ac will be to replace existing 802.11a,b,g,n saturated markets. The best use of 802.11ac appears to be an application like this.
I would like to see a higher speed, but cheaper broadband solution than provided by inefficient dedicated cabling to the home. Wireless over the last 100 meters seems to be the only real possibility. This has been an old idea but never got implemented, maybe because the existing telephone land line, cable TV duopoly never saw the point in developing a system that cut their costs which would cut their profits. Of course, maybe the FCC needs to take all of the bandwidth from broadcast TV to achieve this larger good. Only about 9% of US TV watchers use broadcast over-the-air signals.
The Mountain View Google free WiFi network has been moribund since before the beginning of the year (I'm a resident and know first hand). Considering the otherwise excellent article and it's topic I'm surprised the author missed this. Over 3/4 of the nodes are non-functional or have speeds under 50-100Kbs making it useless. You can see the comments on the Google WiFi Network Forum
I have a longer related comment regarding - why not use state-of-the-art gigabit 802.11ac with rooftop high gain antennas (like Mountain View) and fiber to the access nodes which should be half the cost of the Google's fiber initiative and use of virtual settop boxes that stream video (ala Netflix) for HD TV which should be adequate at 20-30mbps for each of the 30+ households served by the access node.
The importance of WiFi has been to drive expectations of mobile data networks. It arrived just in time to stop the networks from gouging too much from their networks. It remains a poor and very insecure technology but has that great advantage: ubiquity.
Now that the networks have written off their unrealistic expectations and consequent spectrum bids, they can offer services that people are prepared to pay for. Every time they look to push up charges, there is the spectre of free WiFi to stop them. A few of them have even realised that it's better to join them if you can't beat them, though too few are pushing for nice, safe SIM-based authentication.
While not the size of San Francisco, Fredericton, NB, Canada - a university/gov't town - has provided free municipal wifi for ten years.
Lots of very manageable networks on the scale where the cost wasn't prohibitive and there was often cooperation or even payment by local government for some services. Many cities or their chambers of commerce built out retail core and neighborhood shopping Wi-Fi, too. That's still happening.
Hi, this is just a correction to your article. San Franciscans will not see "google free wifi" on their display; they will see the name chosen by the City and County of San Francisco simply because it is the city's network(most likely CCSF-Wifi or SanFrancisco)...Hope this clarifies a bit.
Kind Regards
Marc Touitou CIO of San Francisco
It was meant as a witticism, not literally (as it was clear Google would not be operating nor own the network), but thank you.
Ok thanks, glad to chat further if you want to, plenty going on here on that topic :-) Marc

Gas log shut off valves
Wsmith2incJune 1, 2011
My client has converted 100yr+ ornate brick(1) marble (1)and tiled surrounds (2)fireplaces to gas logs. Each has a shut off in the basement but the home inspector indicated the shut off valve must be in the room of the fireplace. What is the least invasive and least costly way to address this? The gas line feeds are the yellow flexible lines.
Many Thanks. Been scratching my head on this for a day.
