What's in my camera bag? These are my essentials, the "don't leave home without 'em" things…
Cameras Bodies and Lenses
Canon 5D Mark II
I carry two of these fantastic camera bodies. In my opinion, well worth the moolah. This camera is so good with higher ISOs and I love the quickness and the great color. Sharp great images come from this camera when paired with great lenses.
Canon 50mm 1.2L Lens
My trusty (and most often used) 50mm lens. It seems this lens is always on one of my cameras. It is my go to lens in a newborn shoot as well as my go to lens in a family or child outdoor shoot. Great lens, especially on a full frame camera.
Canon 85mm 1.2L Lens
A great lens for the more close up expressive shots. I use this mostly on my outdoor child and family shoots.
Canon 35mm 1.4L Lens
A lovely lens for the wide angle shots. This lens is fantastic for wide shots of a family or children in an orchard. I also use it for wide family newborn shots where they want the cribs or other furniture in the picture.
Canon 100mm Macro 2.8L Lens
This lens is perfect for babies' fingers, toes, lips, and close ups of beautiful little faces. Though it can be used for much more, that's when I find myself using it primarily.
White Balance Target
A white balance target. I take this on every shoot. I use it almost every time. Realistically I don't always use it when I'm with my own kids. My camera is often on auto white balance in my daily life, but for a photo shoot it's on custom and I'm using my target.
SanDisk 8gb Compact Flash
Memory cards are obviously very important. I have more than a dozen. Most of mine are these San Disk 8GB cards.
Canon Camera Batteries
Extra camera batteries are also very important. I have four, two per camera.
Shootsac Camera Bag
I wear my shootsac on every photo shoot. It keeps my lenses, memory cards, batteries, and more accessible while I'm shooting. The rest of my goods stay in my large camera bag when they're not needed for a particular shoot. The shootsac also has fun, stylish covers.
Lowepro Camera Bag
This is my big camera bag. I love Lowepro. They're fantastic and such good quality.
Canon 580 EX II Flash
I have one of these and one 580ex (the first edition). I don't use them much except for weddings with my pocket wizards but I always bring them along in my big camera bag because you never know when you just may some extra light.

Everyone is noticing Obama's ridiculous need to change as much as he can during his last months in office. Now Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are teaming up to try and reason with the man.
According to AOL– U.S. President-elect Donald Trump echoed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in urging the Obama administration on Thursday to veto a U.N. Security Council draft resolution that calls for an immediate halt to settlement building on occupied land Palestinians seek for a state.
Netanyahu took to Twitter in the dead of night in Israel to make the appeal, in a sign of concern that President Barack Obama might take a parting shot at a policy he has long opposed and at a right-wing Israeli leader with whom he has had a rocky relationship.
Hours later, Trump, posting on Twitter and Facebook, backed fellow conservative Netanyahu on one of the most contentious issues in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the pursuit – effectively stalled since 2014 – of a two-state solution.

Har ingen aning om Engadgets trovärdighet men detta går att läsa i en artikel på deras sida:
Saxat från Engadget:
Will the first Intel PowerBooks be designed by a team of ex-Sony engineers? Could be. A reliable source tells us that Apple has been "having trouble playing catch up with the learning curve for designing using the Intel platform" and that in order to have an Intel-based PowerBook out by next year they've been scrambling to recruit an engineering team with some experience building light and thin Intel-based laptops. And how are they going to do that? By poaching from Sony apparently, apparently they've hired a headhunting firm in Japan which has been trying to recruit as many current Sony VAIO and ex-Sony VAIO engineers as they can in order to have a team in place as soon as possible. Sounds a little crazy, but it wouldn't be the first time that Apple's turned to Sony for assistance — you might recall that they had Sony help them design the very first PowerBook way back in 1991.

Layaway Santas
December 25, 2011 by staff
Layaway Santas, Tammy Kovacs was somewhat familiar with a recent trend in which people have anonymously paid off layaway bills for others. The phenomenon has made national headlines for incidents in Illinois, Nebraska, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana and Montana.
Add New York to the list. Kovacs got a similar surprise at the Warsaw Wal-Mart.
"They paid off $61. I couldn't even function. Somebody having such a big heart and not thinking of themselves and thinking of someone else … I started balling. I was shocked," she said Friday. "They were toys for my kids. My kids won't know, but I will."
She had put the items on layaway in the fall. Apparently the secret benefactor asked employees for a recommendation of one employee and two customers to help out. They suggested Kovacs. She works full-time as a job coach at Livingston County's ARC and part-time at Wal-Mart and her husband has been laid off from his job.
Cathryn, 7, and 2-year-old Ethan still believe in Santa, and Kovacs has gradually been getting items to put under the tree for them. She is grateful for the help of Wyoming County Angel Action and now that her layaway tab has been paid in full.
"To have people be selfless and think about helping others is amazing," she said.
That anonymous pay-off has been happening quite a bit at that Wal-mart, Store Manager Diane Waters said. She estimated at least half a dozen cases where someone paid off someone else's goods.
There has been a lot of shock and surprise at the layaway counter, she said. And a residual effect on employees.
"It's pretty amazing," Waters said. "It definitely puts a smile on your face."
The "layaway Santas" seem to be visiting mainly Kmart stores, though a Wal-Mart spokesman said a few of his stores in Joplin, Mo., and Chicago have also seen some layaway accounts paid off, according to Associated Press.
It has been the same mixed experience locally. Wal-Marts in Batavia and Albion have not seen such action, employees said. But Batavia's Kmart has "had quite a few today and throughout the season," Store Manager Dave Dingle said Friday. Neither he nor employee Dawn Wylie, who works in the layaway department, recall it happening in past years.
"They are picking people randomly," Wylie said of the benefactors. "(Customers) are very surprised. One was a woman who had a house fire. She was really happy. It's nice."
These good Samaritans have paid hundreds of dollars, with one tab totalling $500, Wylie said.
So why this particular form of goodwill this year? Connie Boyd, director of human services at GCC, said it may be related to the economy, since "we're continuing to see real issues in terms of budgets and loss of jobs." As someone who has worked in the human services field, both in direct care and on the management level, she learned how pride can affect those in need.
"It can be absolutely devastating to ask for and accept help, even if you're deserving of it," she said.
Being one of these secret Santas is a fun way to help out, she said.

In between all the rain, the second raised vegetable bed has finally been built and filled with earth and compost. The wood came from a neighbour - traded for a couple of boxes of cut up firewood we had left over from the winter (see my post on Simple Heating). The two boxes are approx 4ft x 16ft each. Since both beds are "raised" the drainage has been great -- especially with all the rain we've had. So many farmers here are having a hard time as the seeds planted are starting to rot in the ground. I may think differently about my raised beds when it comes mid summer time, if we get the hot dry summer that is predicted. However, we've been collecting the rain water in the various rain barrels we have surrounding our house and the "free" water will be there when we need it.
Tomato, red/green pepper plants that were started inside in early spring are now planted too (see my earlier post on starting seeds), along with some herbs - basil, lemon thyme, tarragon and parsley. The seeds planted outside a couple of weeks ago are already breaking through the earth - radishes, spinach, swiss chard, lettuce and peas.
The first crop of oregano has been cut and dried - ready to use in sauces and soups. Sticks and branches were placed across the bed to deter our cat from using it as her outdoor litter box !
The perennial beds are another story ! With all the rain, they are thriving too and it's been hard to spend any proper time thinning them out as they've become overgrown and crowded. I started a new perennial bed in the front yard, soon to be a new home for those perennials which have gotten too big in their current spots.
It's amazing how much you can grow in a small space in your own backyard. I'll be posting new photos as the garden progresses throughout the summer.
The only limit to your garden is at the boundaries of your imagination.

You're not the only one eyeing this one up
3 other Obby lovers are looking at this class
Just follow your nose to find this perfume creating class. Immerse yourself in the wonderful, potent world of smells. Discover fragrances that delight, odours which entice and scents that inspire you to blend yourself a personalised perfume which will be your own fragrant calling card.
In this class
Your perfume class kicks off with some essential perfumery facts and then your own personal perfume stylist will guide you on an amazing journey of discovery of the subtleties and complexities of smell. You will learn how to blend and combine aromas which are pleasing to you until you are finally able to orchestrate the ingredients of your own personalised aroma.
The afternoon tea
You will have the privilege to enjoy a three-tier afternoon tea complete with cakes, a selection of sandwiches and tea or coffee. Depending on the time of class that you book this will either happen at the start or at the end of your class.
For any classes starting at 11am or 2pm, your afternoon tea will take place at the end of your class. For classes starting at 6pm, your afternoon tea will take place at the start of your class and the perfume making will begin at 7pm (although please feel free to arrive a little before 6pm if you fancy taking more time to eat your afternoon tea).
Now you can
What do you take away?
While you sip on a glass of bubbly and think of a name for your creation, a perfume stylist will blend your own unique mixture by hand and present it to you in a 20-ml purse spray atomiser, in your choice of colour, in an exquisite gift box made by hand.
Our sense of smell is the most developed of all our senses and the human nose can identify over 10,000 distinct aromas. Fragrances are powerful substances, they are capable of changing our perception, our desires or our mood. They can invigorate, excite and stimulate or invoke peaceful feelings of calm and well-being. A perfume is far more than the sum of its component odours.

At the Perfume Studio, the secrets of the ancient art of perfume making will be revealed. You will learn about the different elements that make up a perfume and how to blend them to achieve a memorable fragrance. Everyone prefers certain odours over others and creating a mixture from the twenty-one different blends available, will allow you to create a perfume which is to your particular taste.
Our perfume stylists will assist you in creating a balance between the short-lived top notes, which are often light and fruity, with the middle notes, which are the heart of the fragrance. These aromas can remain on the skin for up to twelve hours, taking over the dominance as the top notes fade. Then to round out the scent the deeper base notes, which can last over 24-hours, need to be chosen with delicacy and care, so that the long-lasting aroma is pleasing.
You will have the chance to smell, mix and try different combinations until you decide upon the perfect combination for you. As you become more familiar with the different bouquets, and with the guidance of your personal stylist, you will be able to create a scent, which will paint a picture of you in the mind of anyone who smells it. Your personal scent will be uniquely yours, and at the end of the day, you can take home a small spray atomiser filled with your creation.
Enjoy the sensation you will cause among your friends, with your own personal fragrance, just like the celebrities! Don't worry about running out, your unique formula will have been noted so that it can be recreated, just for you, whenever you need it.
Unleash your creative genius and catch your essence in an unforgettable customised perfume.

- AREX's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 1.4%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 2.8%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- The gross profit margin for APPROACH RESOURCES INC is currently very high, coming in at 78.30%. Regardless of AREX's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, AREX's net profit margin of 26.30% significantly outperformed against the industry.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.30, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Even though the company has a strong debt-to-equity ratio, the quick ratio of 0.20 is very weak and demonstrates a lack of ability to pay short-term obligations.
- The company's current return on equity has slightly decreased from the same quarter one year prior. This implies a minor weakness in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, APPROACH RESOURCES INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to $10.63 million or 66.42% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.

Not sure even where to start with Mark, typically when I think of lawyers my blood boils, But Mark is not a typical (overpriced, cocky, sleezeball) lawyer Mark is just a down to earth guy that is all about making a reliable, honest, and reputable business for the working man.
Mark handled my un-contested divorce in Dallas County. Mark was not the cheapest around but he was by far the best when considering Price, Attention to detail, Experience, and Prompt Professionalism. Some of the go to quick divorce places like (123divorce and cheapdivorce.com) maybe be under 400 dollars, but good luck getting a call back and good luck knowing your lawyer before court day.
Mark never once failed to return a call within normal business hours, and on multiple occasions responded to emails late at night. For my Uncontested Divorce with 2 decree changes in the process he only charged $800 dollars and that INCLUDED the filing fees.
If you need any legal services and are looking for a Fair and Honest (cant believe i said that about a lawyer) than look no further than Mark Cohan.
Thanks Alot Mark!

Mark treated my case as if it was his own with respect and paid close attention to details he fought for me and my daughter in court and stood by me through the whole process I don't think I can thank him enough.

I have been in the market to get a will drawn up for some time, especially after the death of my uncle last year resulted in a messy estate with no will, and as a result my family was left to deal with his left-over bills and burial costs with no recourse besides their own funds. Although Mark is not located in Austin, he was recommended to me by a friend and after a short email correspondence made it clear that not only would our locations not be an issue, but I would be able to reduce costs in some ways since most of our interaction would be through email.
The process of creating the will was much easier than I imagined, and Mark was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. Additionally, he went out of his to make sure that my will planned for any likely future events, such as marriage or children, so that it would be a document that I would not have to get modified or replaced for some time.
I would most definitely recommend Mark to anyone within the Dallas and Central Texas area if you are in need of legal services. He is a motivated, trustworthy, and diligent attorney, and I would not hesitate to call on him again when I am in need of legal advice or counsel.
Sminu Peter, Criminal defense Attorney
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I was opposing counsel in a family law matter with Mark and I was very impressed with his legal knowledge and courtroom presence. He was very professional in our dealings and always responded to emails and phone calls in a diligent manner. I recommend him.
Donald Paradiso, Employment and labor Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Great attorney. Works hard for his clients. Smart and zealous. He is my go to for referrals in Dallas. I endorse him.

Biwa's Heart was a friendly and relaxing teahouse in the village of Mimura which was owned by Natsuko. She served small bits of mochi with her green, black, oolong, or sorghum tea. Her business secret was two drops of apple brandy in every cup of tea, which had and effect without comparison. Each night a geisha was brought in to play the samisen and sang traditional folk songs.

The Light Comforting Cream, with its fine and non-greasy texture, is formulated with 5% shea butter to answer the essential needs of normal to combination skin, including sensitive skin types. Lastingly moisturized (48h)**, skin is supple and soft. As protected against external aggressions, skin stays comfortable all day long.In Burkina Faso, women produce shea butter by hand. While one might expect this technique to weaken and damage the skin, in reality it leaves it incredibly soft. L'OCCITANE discovered that the shea butter produced in Burkina Faso using traditional methods is particularly rich in omega 6 and karitene. These molecules have exceptional properties and help to moisturize, nourish and give extra protection to the skin every day.
‹‹ I just love the Shea butter collection, I have been using them for 3 years. It provides enough moisture and soothes my sensitive skin! ››

A novel by Nancy Coco
Fudge shop owner Allie McMurphy is making fudgie treats for the annual yacht race--but a killer's stirring up a batch of trouble. . .
Sailing Into Murder
The annual yacht race off the coast of Mackinac Island, Michigan, is a highlight of the summer season, and Allie is pulling out all the stops making chocolate centerpieces for the occasion. Unfortunately, she and her bichonpoo, Mal, also pull a dead body from the murky waters of the marina.

Amid bitter feuds and hushed-up scandals, the courageous candymaker quickly gets in over her head. Someone is trying to fudge the facts to keep a secret worth killing for. . .

I can't say enough about Laura! We have a 5 month old Husky and a 2 year old Lab. Although both great dogs individually together they are a handful. From the moment she stepped into our house she commanded the attention of our dogs. She explained training methods where we understood the reason behind their actions and why we needed to do something a specific way. Every time she was done with a session she would send us homework and notes on our training session from that day. She is very professional and knows what she is talking about. She explains different tools we can use with the dogs and how certain tools may not be right for one of the dogs. We already plan on booking more sessions so we can advance our dogs even more! The key to advancing your dogs is to practice what she teaches you, if you are not willing to put the effort in then don't waste your time or money.

I would be lost without Laura!
Laura is a pro. She's knowledgeable, responsive, passionate and kind. I adopted a puppy recently and hired Laura for 3 training sessions. Even before Biggie arrived, Laura proved to be immensely valuable. She provided lists of all of the items I should have on-hand, including food and toy recommendations, and she even helped me find a vet and a dog walker. Once the sessions started, Laura arrived on time with a clear curriculum and format. She was organized and direct and taught Biggie (and me!) the essentials around crate training, focusing, sitting, meal time, walking on a leash and more. As a first time puppy owner, I was totally lost before I met Laura. She's incredible, and I highly recommend her. Laura is not only great at what she does, but it's clear she loves her job as well.

Ms Waddell gave my dog Heidi her first class. She was informative on her lesson given and clarity of her style to teach dogs is easy. She is passionate towards her profession. Still have 5 more lessons to go and I know she will give me the skills to train my dog accordingly. She is a "problemsolver". Thank you Laura.

Laura is amazing! I was totally overwhelmed with a brand new puppy and she came just at the right time to not only train him, but me as well as a first time dog owner. Having her here in the early stages has helped immensely and I couldn't be more appreciative. I would strongly recommend her to anyone!

We had the best experience working with Laura. Her expertise is second-to-none! Not only did she help us with obedience and behavioral training, her insights regarding health and congenital issues related to our breed (English Bulldog) was very valuable. Our Mabel has achieved more than I could have hoped. She is well on her way to being fully house trained and she has successfully started learning new commands which I never thought possible. I have learned a lot as a dog owner and would recommend Laura to everyone. Now that Mabel has graduated, we will miss seeing Laura during our weekly sessions.

Laura was amazing! I'm glad that I had found her, perk that she is close to home. Laura was able to squeeze us in for the 3 week training and I could not be more happier. Belle a rescue, who is a lab-pit mix, or so they say... follows commands well and even impressed Laura. I was amazed at the things Belle is able to do and listen too. Laura is a knowledgeable, well rounded trainer and I could not have asked for anyone better. Thank you so much!

Laura is AMAZING at what she does. My fiance and i call her the east coast dog whisperer. She came to our home for a session with our dogs Bonny and Clyde. Clyde is an 85lb Old English Bulldog with Alpha issues. When we brought Bonny into the house a few months ago, Clyde was not having it. He went after Bonny a few times and was aggressive towards her. Laura came in and within a half hour- she took the lead and taught us what needs to be done to help clyde understand that hes not the head of the house. We walk the dogs together - from the time Laura came in without any incident. Clyde can walk closer to Bonny at this point and can be in same room with her for longer periods of time. While giving us a lot of hope - she has always been honest from the beginning, that there is a possibility that Clyde may not accept Bonny....it's not something that we wanted to hear - or think about, but a possible reality. We've been working hard with the dogs, and while its taking a lot of time (as she said it would), we're doing it the right way, and both dogs will be better as a result of her training tips. The day after she was here, she sent a very thorough report that included "homework" for us. it was because after a few days....with a lot of info to remember we were able to go back and read her reports whenever we need to. She calls to check in, and if we had any questions, or needed her help she calls back and has offered assistance - and would come over if need be, but we did as she instructed and we haven't need to. i'm pretty confiedent that Clyde will accept Bonny into our "pack" with the help from Laura. A lot of the work was based on Joe and I. It's a lot of extra work and time that we didnt think we had.....but we wanted to make this work, so we find the time. We dont have an end to this story just yet....there's still work ahead....but our dogs are better pets because of Laura. I honestly dont know what i would have done if she wasnt here to help, and we're so very grateful for everything she's done already!

Laura is amazing and a true professional! I currently own two maltese and have used her services to teach them how to walk properly on a leash, to control barking and she even trained one of them to walk on a treadmill! I also am a volunteer with MMR Maltese Rescue and we have used her services numerous times from minor to major behavoiral problems and have had success with each dog. Laura is remarkable, dogs respond to her quickly and her training methods really work If you have issues with your dog from major to minor behavoiral problems Laura from K9 Problem Solvers is your answer

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Ask how long a trainer mentored with another established trainer, the most experienced dog handlers/trainers never went to an online school, but were mentored for several YEARS before being allowed to teach and train themselves. Sadly, that's no longer the case with most of the "dog trainers" the online schools are "graduating" at an alarming rate, many of these trainers have spent a mere 6 to 8 weeks working under another trainer, who they themselves have only been training for a few years. Book schooling is important, but working with animals is not just a science, it's an art, and it can take years before a trainer becomes proficient at their craft.

By David Sarno, Los Angeles Times / Published: 00:00 June 9, 2010 by [Gulf News]
CEO shows iPhone 4's new video functions
San Francisco: Seeking to keep its edge in the smartphone market in the face of new competition, Apple on Monday unveiled its latest iPhone, equipped with mini cameras on front and back to allow for video calls.
Apple Chief Executive Steve Jobs, ever the showman, demonstrated the new video calling program, called FaceTime, by using the new iPhone to place a video call to an unseen colleague.
"I grew up with The Jetsons and Star Trek, just dreaming about video calls," Jobs said to the crowd at the Moscone Center for Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference.
"And it's real now."
The iPhone 4, as it's called, is a slimmer, faster version of the blockbuster phone, encased in steel and extra-durable glass and boasting a screen with a resolution quadruple that of the previous model.
Video: Quick overview of what the iPhone 4 is all about
"This is the biggest leap we've taken since the original iPhone," Jobs said.
The new iPhone 4 would also have a built-in gyroscope to give the device the ability to determine, with much more accuracy, which way its screen was facing.
"These phones are getting more and more intelligent about the world around them," Jobs said.
The new phone came after months of speculation about features it would contain.
But Jobs focused on the new phone's video, with a built-in camera capable of high-definition video, higher resolution screen and video calling.
The future is calling
The phone, which will be available in US stores by June 24, will cost $199 for the 16-gigabyte version and $299 for the 32-gigabyte version if it is purchased with a two-year plan from exclusive carrier AT&T.
The phone prices are substantially lower than the $599 price tag on the first model, which was released in summer 2007. No launch date for the Middle East markets has been set.

De La Salle baseball coach talks run to regionals
By Jason Carmel Davis
Warren De La Salle senior Brett Sandora slides safely into home during a June 2 playoff win over Fraser High. The Pilots won 27 games and a Division 1 district title this season.
Posted June 16, 2017
ANCHOR BAY — Warren De La Salle baseball coach Matt Cook is proud of the way his team played this season.
The run came to an end with a 10-inning 5-4 loss to Sterling Heights Stevenson June 10 in a Division 1 regional semifinal.
The Pilots, who came into the season as the defending D-1 state champions, ended the season with a 27-10 record. That included a second-place finish in the Catholic High School League Central Division and another district championship. The program has four state championships in total.
"We've got nothing to be ashamed of," Cook said. "We had a great year. Twenty-seven wins is a great season, especially with the schedule we play."
The Pilots led 3-1 after one inning in the regional semi. Stevenson was able to tie the game at 3-3 in the bottom of the second. De La Salle went ahead 4-3 in the top of the 10th after junior Jake Badalamenti scored on a fielder's choice. Stevenson tied the game at 4-4 on a bases-loaded walk. The winning run came after a Stevenson batter was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.
Stevenson went on to beat Harrison Township L'Anse Creuse 6-0 in a regional final, before falling to Grosse Pointe Woods University Liggett in the quarterfinal round.
"Anytime you play a good, quality opponent like Stevenson, we just want to play a good baseball game," Cook said. "If you were in attendance, you saw a heck of a game. Hats off to Stevenson. They were down to their last outs and were able to scratch out a couple of runs.
"We clearly came out on the wrong side of it. I truly believed the winner of this regional would have a good shot to win a state title. It just wasn't our time."
De La Salle loses three players to graduation: Brett Sandora, Mike Karam and Keegan Kresevich. Cook thanked his seniors for their four years of service.
"We'll miss them dearly," Cook said.
The Pilots have 16 players eligible to return next season, including juniors Bryce Bush, Nino Puckett, Easton Sikorski and Badalamenti, who all played major roles in the team's 2016 state title run.
"They should keep this in their memory banks," Cook said. "We're as talented as can be. We just can't expect to walk out there and have the other team lie down. Hopefully they use this as a learning point."

Snow Storage Site
Review Snow Site Survey Response Summary
The City of Regina's Snow Storage Site is located at the north east corner of Fleet Street and McDonald Street/Highway 46. The site is open 7 days a week during the winter season as long as weather conditions and City of Regina removal activity permits.
Vehicle Registration
All users of the Snow Storage Site will require a permit from the City at a cost of $10 per vehicle, non-refundable. Permitting will be monitored using Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) tags installed on the vehicle windshield. This RFID tag will authorize site access and provide site usage tracking for billing purposes.
Register your vehicle by completing the Snow Storage Site Use Application Form. The signed application form can be scanned and emailed to email@example.com, faxed to 306-777-6814 or delivered in person to City Hall during regular business hours.
User Fees
|Truck Categories
|Radio Frequency Identification Device Tag Cost (One-time non-refundable fee)
|Cost per load
|1 ton pick-up or smaller truck without trailer
|1 ton pick-up or smaller truck with trailer
|Tandem axle truck or single axle truck bigger than 1 ton (both without trailer)
|Tandem axle truck with trailer or single axle truck bigger than 1 ton with trailer
Site Access Payment Options
Users of the Snow Storage Site have two options to pay for their site usage:
- Prepayment of site access fees – Users prepay their account and receive a monthly statement showing the balance of funds on the account. Prepayments will only be accepted via telephone, using a credit card, by calling 306-777-7125. Once funds have been depleted, the associated RFID tag(s) are deactivated until additional funds have been placed on the account. Re-activation takes two business days and users will be denied access to the Snow Storage Site during that time.
- Application for credit (invoicing) – Users submit an Application for Credit. If credit is approved, the customer will receive monthly invoices showing site usage. Credit terms are detailed on the application. Application for credit does not guarantee credit approval.
Customers are responsible for tracking use-limits and account balances, and it's important to keep drivers well-informed about the total uses left after each dump. As the end of the season approaches, it's important to consider adding funds to your account well-in advance to ensure you are not denied entry to the Site. In most cases, additional use-limits can be topped up on the previous RFID tag.
There are no registration or payment facilities at the Snow Storage Site. Access to the site will not be allowed without an active RFID tag. It may take up to 10 business days to process your application and issue your RFID tags.
Clean Property Bylaw
The City of Regina's Clean Property Bylaw, No. 9881 deals with the Snow Storage Site fees which were implemented November 1, 2016. The bylaw provides details of the fee structure as well as voluntary payments for Notice of Violation.

You're normally free to decide what pay increases you'll give your staff as long as you comply with the legislation controlling minimum wage levels and minimum wage increases.
But if you have a recognised trade union in your workplace, you can't afford to overlook these four stages of wage negotiations. They are:
Let's take a closer look at each one of them.
Revealed: The four main stages in wage negotiations
STAGE 1: Preparation
Don't skip this stage!
It's the vital foundation on which your success in the entire negotiation process is based. During preparation you'll follow four steps:
Step 1: Arm yourself with crucial information and decide on what you want out of the negotiations.
Step 2: Analyse the information.
Step 3: Plan your own strategy to achieve your goal.
Step 4: Ensure the resources you'll need to achieve your goal are available.
STAGE 2: Introduction and positioning
The Labour Law for Managers Loose Leaf Service says you must open the first meeting by:
STAGE 3: Bargaining
Once the union has responded to your presentation, adjourn to the caucus room to consider their response.
Your counter-response must be based on:
STAGE 4: Finalising the settlement
Here, it's your job to finalise an agreement. You can do this by:
After concluding wage negotiations you must put all the agreements into a written contract as quickly as possible. Then, get the union official and chief shop steward must sign it.
Make sure your report to the workers makes it clear a deal has been reached and clarifies the content of the agreement.
Knowing what the four main stages in wage negotiations are will help ensure your negotiations are a success.

The term "French fries" may refer to elongated pieces of fried potatoes, but it can mean so much more. You can have them straight, curly, fat, thin, sweet, garlicky or crinkle cut. Although the options don't end there.
This is Miami, we like our papas accessorized, blinged out. We have them fried in duck fat, served extra spicy, replaced with veggies and even topped with hunks of meat.
Grab some ketchup as we attempt to make every day fry day with our list of fries gone wild.
There's steak under there.
Carina Ost
10. Papas at Rio Cristal
Any ole restaurant can serve you a dish with a side of fries, but Rio Cristal tops them all. If you get any entree with fries, they will place them right on top. They will smother your meat or sandwich and act as insulation. Burger Beast gave us the heads up on these papas. While Blue Collar may have won his coveted Burgie for best fries; for nontraditional spuds, this is his pick. It may look like too many golden sticks, but once you start, you can't stop. Hide-and-seek is for children, hide-the-steak is for adults. Go crazy!
A healthier fry.

9. Zucchini
From portobello fries to fried pickles, many veggies have attempted to replace the almighty potato. Most have failed. Although, for some reason, the zucchini fries ($8) at Cecconi's just work. Maybe it's the beach setting that
Edible Jenga.
Carina Ost
8. Polenta fries at Harry's Pizzeria
Creamy polenta takes the place of potato in these thick rectangular fries ($7). They have a crispy exterior and velvety smooth center. They also come stacked like Jenga for a fun table game while you decide on what kind of pizza you want.
Tots with class.
Courtesy of Haven
7. Tater tots at Haven
Leave it to chef Todd Erickson to make tater tots a classy dish. His version ($9) features Maytag blue cheese, chives and a homemade balsamic ketchup. After seeing what he can do with tots, we are hoping he starts serving tachos (tater tot nachos) at Huahua's Taqueria. Miami needs them.
Duck fat fries.
Carina Ost
When a single or double won't cut it, head to Bourbon Steak for Michael Mina's signature trio of duck fat fries. They are available at the bar for just $5. They feature Spanish paprika on one, another has garlic, parsley and rosemary, and lastly truffle fries. The trio is then served with a truffle aioli, barbecue sauce and an onion ketchup. The best part is you're the boss with the sauce so dip in whatever pool you desire. Mix and match, because you gotta dip your stick in a variety of sauce to know what you like.
Pretty poutine.

5. Poutine at Tongue & Cheek
Everyone's favorite Canadian food to eat while drunk is elevated by chef Jamie DeRosa. Simple gravy and cheese curds at Quebec greasy spoon diners are replaced with braised brisket, white cheddar and pastrami spiced fries. His version of poutine ($12) is comforting, hearty and gourmet.
Go wingless.
Carina Ost
4. Buffalo fries at A&G Burger Joint
A&G has chicken, duck and pork wings but if you want to get away from meat and the bones, try the buffalo fries ($4). These skin on french fries get covered in blue cheese dressing, buffalo sauce and then are topped with blue cheese crumbles. These classic wing flavors work so well with these french fries. One bite and we were given wings and memories of Red Bull and sanitary napkin commercials flew around in our head.
Tots with sass.
Carina Ost
3. Chunk'd kalbi beef tater tots at Sakaya Kitchen
If Erickson's tots had class, then Richard Hales' tots have sass. They are cheesy, spicy and topped with short ribs. If you want to make it yourself, there's a recipe online that takes over 8 hours until you can start popping them in your mouth. We suggest you just spend the $8 and head to either of the Sakaya Kitchen or hunt for the Dim Ssam A Gogo truck.

Chili cheese fries are for amateurs. The Federal creates their own fries by ingeniously frying grits and placing them with slow cooked venison chili. This playful dish ($14) worthy of quotation marks has fries re-imagined with chili made of wild game cooked with assorted chiles. It brings the heat and makes all other fries in Miami seriously step up their game. Pun always intended.

Maritz, Welcome Real-Time Roll Out POS Rewards Offering in North America
The program helps retailers increase sales volume and customer visits, making it easier for customers to redeem rewards promotions.
Maritz and Welcome Real-time are launching an innovative loyalty solution in the United States and Canada. "Maritz Real-Time Rewards£" delivers behaviorally driven marketing incentives and rewards at the retail point of sale on existing POS hardware.
Retail customers can receive special targeted offers, including discounts or free merchandise, and accrue and redeem points for purchases at checkout. All of the offers are delivered through the shopper's receipt and redeemed at the POS terminal without the need for paper coupons or online redemption. The program drives in-store traffic and additional sales through promotions and rewards.
The partnership combines the joint expertise of Aix-en-Provence, France-based Welcome Real-Time, a worldwide provider of real-time payment card marketing programs, and St. Louis-based Maritz, which manages loyalty programs for seven of the top 10 banks and credit card companies, as well as over 100 million customer loyalty program members.
"Maritz Real-Time Rewards helps retailers eliminate the waste and expense of hit-or-miss promotions, increases same-store sales and offers customers exactly what they want, when they want it -- which is right now," said Maritz Real-Time Rewards director Thad Peterson. "At a time when retailers need to increase traffic and sales in their stores, Maritz Real-Time Rewards can be a lifeline for many retailers."
The program offers retailers such advantages as the following:
--Easy Access: At the retailer's discretion, customers can use a proprietary loyalty card or any credit or debit card to enroll and participate in the program, thereby simplifying enrollment.
--Information: Retailers will be able to analyze customer buying behaviors and other information to deliver more intelligent, targeted rewards in real time, at the point of sale.
--Lower Costs: Maritz Real-Time Rewards provides a higher-value program at a lower cost by delivering promotions at the point of sale, rather than through more expensive alternatives such as direct mail or retail advertising.
--No Additional Hardware: The system can work with any installed POS system.
The Maritz Real-Time Rewards suite of services includes a customer-specific promotional program that delivers personalized offers at the point of sale based on customer behavior, a points-based, point-of-sale redemption program using either a proprietary card or data from payment cards that the customer already has in her wallet, and a point-of-sale merchant rewards network that allows retailers to participate in a credit or debit card issuer's program in which cardholders who shop with the retailers receive special discounts across a network of retailers, along with point-of-sale rewards redemption.

David Gold says West Ham manager Slaven Bilic has the final say on any transfers negotiated by joint owner David Sullivan.
Co-owner Gold shared the transfer policy on his personal Twitter account, as potential transfers loom in the final weeks of August.
David Sullivan leads the team on player recruitment but the manager makes the final decision. dg
— David Gold (@davidgold) August 24, 2016
The 'Two Davids' as they have become known, bought the club in 2010 and have helped the club recover from relegation to become one of the top sides in the Premier League, as well as securing a move to the 60,000 seater Olympic Stadium
They have brought in eight new faces to the first-team squad this summer, including record signing Andre Ayew for £20.5million from Swansea.
Their business is not finished though, as they are now facing a short-term striker crisis.
Ayew was injured on his debut against Chelsea and could be out for four months, while Andy Carroll was injured in their Europa League first-leg against Astra Giurgiu and is out until October.
West Ham are now tracking Wilfried Bony, who is not a part of Pep Guardiola's plans at Manchester City.
They are also interested in Napoli striker Simone Zaza and they are said to be in talks with the Serie A club over a potential £24million move.
In other West Ham transfer news, a BBC journalist gives an injury update on their record signing.

to the opponent, his coach, even his own players during a game. This helps look at the psychological makeup of a team.
When I was with the Galaxy, I used a system called Mambo during the season. A DVD is prepared by a company in the Bay Area and sent to the team by Tuesday morning. You can ask almost any question. For example: How many times did Cobi Jones pass the ball to Carlos Ruiz? The DVD does a search and within seconds you can see all the passes that were made in a highlight-type format. Let's say I want to see all our shots on goal. You think of it, you can ask it, and you will get a collection of scenes that shows this. I used this mainly for our team, but you can also have the opponent analyzed. (In a future article I will talk about self-scouting and where I think it fits in to team preparation.)
When looking at the opponent, I am first looking for tendencies. Every team has a preferred way to play. Some follow this more diligently than others, but every team has certain tendencies. Next I look for key players. Who are the guys who impact things, make plays and create the moments that decide games? You look at team formation, free kicks (both attacking and defending), and when are they most comfortable or vulnerable. Who is available -- injuries, national team call-ups or suspensions -- all affect this. I remember once before a game a coach wondering where a certain player was. He asked me and I told him he was out with a yellow-card suspension. He had no idea and I know his team preparation included plans to stop this player. The key is to gather all the information.
Every team has a comfort zone and a preferred way to play. I felt if I could force this team out of that "comfort zone," then while they were adjusting we would get an advantage. Three or four years back, Chicago was a very good team -- but also a very left-sided team with Peter Nowak, Lubos Kubik, Ante Razov and Diego Guiterrez. With the Galaxy I always tried to force them to build up the game on their right side. It worked more times than not. Good teams always adjust, but it is in that period of adjustment you can create the chances and score the goals you need.
Key players need to be contained. Some coaches like to go man-to-man in their marking. Other coaches do not want to change their way of playing for any opponent. Still others will play a zone against the key player and put pressure on him immediately.
I have used all three. The one I like best is to use a couple of different players for the task. For example, I would make two or three players aware that when Preki gets the ball, that the nearest of these quickly closes him down and forces him to lay off the ball. You stop key players by making them give up the ball or forcing them into spaces on the field that are not dangerous. You stop good forwards more effectively by cutting out the service. Once they have the ball it takes a lot of good individual defending.
A coach needs to make his team aware of the opponent's free kicks -- what to look for; how to get an edge when you have a chance. I like to give the team its assignments and posted this paper on the wall in the locker room before the game. Everyone could look at this and know what his offensive and defensive jobs were on free kicks. However, once the game starts you always have some players who seem to get amnesia. That is why I always put an individual in charge to help get out the cobwebs in those memory cells.
Showing the team a short video of the opponent is good before the game. I usually watched the opponent with the team on Friday. We talked about it much earlier, but watched on Friday. The viewing session should last between 10-20 minutes and in some cases that becomes too long. Most players want to play -- some will want to watch tape, but not all. There are even players who will tape games themselves or borrow tapes to watch themselves or the upcoming opponents. This self-study is commendable.
The key at the end is to know everything but know nothing at the same time. Bora told me this. But what does it mean?
You, as a coach, need to be prepared for everything. However, never lose sight that the most important element to success is how you play as a team. You do not want your team to feel you are overly concerned about the opponent. They will view this as a lack of confidence by you in your own team. I always want my team to know that preparing for an opponent allows us to better use our strengths. That's the most important element of all: Using our strengths in the best way possible to win.
Also, I need to clean something up from last week: As many e-mails pointed out, I forgot to list a significant new addition last week. The trade of Richard Mulrooney to Dallas is a big addition. Mulrooney is a veteran who can control the midfield; he works hard, tackles well and is an outstanding server of the ball. He and Simo Valakari could come close to mimicking what Mulrooney and Ronnie Ekelund did during their best days at San Jose. This definitely makes Dallas stronger. I apologize for my oversight. So, stop those e-mails -- my amnesia was only temporary.

PrinterSetup is a flexible printer setup system. It is tailored to institutions with more than 20 deployed printers. It is designed to work with CUPS on Mac OS X. PrinterSetup is a component of PrintingWorks, a print accounting solution. There is limited documentation. Apple package deployment requires Mac OS X 10.3 or later, and is untested on earlier versions. Apple package development requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later and Xcode 3.0 or later.
Multixterm creates multiple xterms that can be driven together or separately. It can be used to login via SSH to multiple hosts and control them simultaneously, or for ad hoc things where you want to see the results as you type. Each xterm may also be driven separately. Multixterm is scriptable so that you can easily fire up, for example, a dozen xterms with a single command, tiled nicely on your screen. In addition to SSH, multixterm can drive rlogin, telnet, passwd, or any program that runs in an xterm.
Qodem is a re-implementation of the Qmodem DOS shareware communications package, updated for more modern uses. Major features include Unicode support, scrollback buffer, capture file, screen dump, dialing directory, keyboard macros, script support, Xmodem, Ymodem, Zmodem, and Kermit. It can connect over serial port, telnet, ssh, rlogin, and command line, and supports multiple terminal emulations including ANSI.SYS, Avatar, VT100/102, VT220, and Linux.
LibVNCServer is a library that makes it easy to make a VNC server. All you do is provide a frame buffer and some I/O functions, and call a function each time the frame buffer changes. It supports all encodings known, including tight, zlib, ZRLE, and cursor encodings. It also includes the HTTP server from Xvnc, so you can start a java viewer by surfing to http://my.vnc.server:5801 or similar. It includes a beta version of LibVNCClient, which makes it easy to make a VNC client. Also included is LinuxVNC, which is to the Linux console as WinVNC is to the Windows desktop.
Mail2sh makes it possible to carry out shell commands by email. Email is sent to a particular user on your host and the commands will be carried out if the user and password given matches ones in /etc/passwd. Commands are executed with the user's privileges, and combined with a PGP module ensures a certain level of security for use. Note that the system is not natively encrypted, so use of an encryption mechanism is highly recommended for security reasons.
AppLaunch is a Mac OS X version of the common "Run" or "Launch" dialogs provided by other operating systems and window managers such as Windows or KDE. It consists of an input box where the user enters a command line that will be passed to the applications workspace. A command in the AppLaunch meaning is not only a "pure" shell command; as of version 2 it may also be a file, an application, or an URL.
evilvte is a terminal emulator. It supports almost everything VTE provides. It also supports tabs, automatic hiding of the tab bar, and the ability to switch encoding at runtime. Configuration is done by editing the source code and recompiling it. The size of a standard stripped binary of evilvte is less than 9 kilobytes.
Twin is a text-mode window environment. It turns a text terminal into a X11-style display with window manager, terminal windows, and can also serve as display for remote applications. Each terminal window provides the functions of a text-mode Linux console. Twin runs on X11, libggi, itself, the Linux console, and any termcap/ncurses-compatible tty. It supports multiple simultaneous displays, and can attach/detach each display on the fly.
