The Foschini Group (TFG) is one of the leading retailers in South Africa and counts on SAP to manage its financial operations that include over 1,600 retail stores. TFG needed to upgrade from 4.7 to ERP 6.0 but the allocated budget was lower than their calculated needs.
Using Panaya, TFG upgraded to ERP 6.0 while saving 85% of the allocated budget, saving 100% on outsourcing costs, reducing code corrections by 60%, unit testing by 50%, and ending up with a project 50% shorter than planned.
Upgrade Synopsis
Upgrade benefits
Read this brand new case study to find out:
- What the main upgrade challenges were
- Which solution was chosen
- How the implementation went
- What were the upgrade implementation results
- What is TFG's advice for other companies upgrading to ERP 6.0
The Foschini Group (TFG) opened for trading in 1924 and has been listed in the South African stock exchange since January 1941. Today, TFG is one of the leading retailers in South Africa, with recent expansions into Zambia expanding its footprint. Now comprised of 14 trading brands such as Donna-Claire and Markham, TFG specializes in lifestyle products, from fashion to cosmetics to sporting apparel. Since 2006, TFG has counted on SAP to manage its ?nancial operations that include over 1,600 retail stores. TFG's SAP systems are supported by Foschinidata, TFG's internal IT services division.
The Challenge
In 2008, TFG's Gerhard Mitton was feeling the heat. As a Senior Department Manager at Foschinidata, Mitton was charged with creating the project plan for the ERP 6.0 upgrade. Although the upgrade was originally motivated by SAP's extended maintenance deadlines for 4.7, SAP ended up pushing back the end of maintenance date. But there was no looking back: Foschini Group's business users were now excited about what ERP 6.0 could do for them. One way or the other, Mitton had to make the upgrade happen.
The allocated budget was lower than Mitton's calculated needs. There was also a hard stop deadline to contend with: Foschinidata had to complete the upgrade by the end of June 2010. New store openings in Zambia were planned for September 2010, and con?guration changes such as cross-border currency adjustments would take the rest of the summer. If they didn't ?nish the upgrade by the end of June, they would have to push it back until November/December, resulting in a year-long code freeze from the environment ?rst being worked on – an unacceptable scenario.
The Solution
Mitton needed a way to hit his deadlines and mitigate the risks. During his upgrade research, Mitton downloaded a white paper from Panaya on avoiding SAP upgrade pitfalls. Soon after, he got a phone call from a Panaya account manager. "Initially, I was very skeptical," recalls Mitton. "It was just the beginning of Software as a Service as a concept. I remember thinking, 'What are you going to do with our code - we're just going to send it off to you? How do we know how accurate your information is?'"
Mitton gave Panaya's demo a shot. "After Panaya ran the analysis on our data, they came back with a result that was very close to the picture I had in my mind, but with much more detail," says Mitton. "Panaya told us how long it should take to do the upgrade and provided a list of the objects we needed to change." Mitton had seen enough: he presented Panaya to his CIO. "The way I sold it to my CIO is: they are bringing us much closer to the end result, much quicker than working through all these issues for ourselves," says Mitton. "Plus, Panaya's price was right – a tenth of what I expected to pay." TFG selected Panaya.
Mitton designed the implementation to work around the business users' schedules: code corrections in late 2009, then the new system would go on ice until the users could pitch in with unit testing during May 2010. Code correction with Panaya went quickly. Mitton's team was prepared for at least three months of code corrections, but with Panaya to pinpoint the results, they were ?nished by the end of 2009 – in just six weeks. With the complexity and uncertainty removed from the application development side, the upgrade was reduced to being mostly a technical exercise on the Basis side. When it became time for unit testing and user acceptance testing, the process was equally smooth: another six week period.
A week before go-live, TFG had Panaya run their reports one more time. "When Panaya's analysis came back clean, that gave us the con?dence to go ahead with the update of our production system over a single weekend," recalls Mitton. Weekends are a crucial time for TFG, with intense retail activity in 1,500 stores. "The risk was huge, to ?ddle with the company's ?nancial systems on a crucial weekend," says Mitton. "But we did it, and there were no problems. By Saturday evening at nine o'clock, we all went home. Sunday, everybody relaxed. It was such a non-event in the end."
Mitton knew the project was a success before he ran the numbers, but they were still eye-opening. Panaya allowed TFG to cut their estimated project time in half, saving 50 percent of the testing time, 60 percent of code corrections and signi?cant savings in cost. As for the limited budget Mitton was nervous about? Only 15% of the allocated budget was spent - an 85% savings. Aside from a short stint with one on-site Basis consultant, there were no consulting or outsourcing costs. "You simply don't need consulting with Panaya telling you exactly where you need to go," says Mitton.
Even with rock solid numbers, Mitton points to an even bigger Panaya bene?t: risk reduction. "If it wasn't for Panaya, I can categorically say we wouldn't have had the sense of comfort to be able to go ahead with the upgrade," says Mitton. "This was a major success story."
Mitton has advice for others moving to ERP 6.0, and he doesn't mince words: "Stop wasting time and get on with using Panaya, you can't go wrong," he jokes. "And you haven't even asked me about their customer service, which is excellent!" Next up for Mitton? TFG is once again teaming with Panaya, this time to get their support packs under control.
But there's a difference this time: the project was a lot easier to sell internally. As Mitton tells it: "The moment we were done with our upgrade project, I went to the CIO and said, 'We're planning the support pack install, can I go ahead and engage with Panaya, as I can't see doing this without them?' The CIO's response? "Go for it!"

Politics and policy from inside Washington
And the Senate isn't looking so hot, either …
The respected Cook Political Report:
The macro political landscape strongly favors Republicans and it is not likely that it will change much between now and November. As a result, a look at the 37 Senate races on the ballot shows some deterioration for Democrats in some of the 19 seats they are defending, while Republicans' prospects have stayed the same or improved slightly in their most competitive seats. As such, it is now likely that Republicans will score a net gain of between seven and nine seats. While there is a plausible argument for how Republicans could net the 10 seats they need to win the majority, it remains an unlikely scenario today.
Right, Intrade gives a 45 percent chance of the GOP either taking the Senate (30 percent) or neither party controlling (15 percent).

This short video, is the fifth in the National Academies Climate Change, Lines of Evidence series. It focuses on greenhouse gases, climate forcing (natural and human-caused), and global energy balance.
This short cartoon video uses a simple baseball analogy (steroid use increases probability of hitting home runs) to explain how small increases in greenhouse gases can cause global temperature changes and increase the probability of extreme weather events.
In this short video from ClimateCentral, host Jessica Harrop explains what evidence scientists have for claiming that recent global warming is caused by humans and is not just part of a natural cycle.
Global sea level has been steadily rising for decades and is expected to continue. Scientists have very high confidence that global sea level will rise at least another 8 inches and as much as 6.6 feet by 2100, causing significant impacts in U.S. coastal regions. This report lays out the science and describes possible scenarios to help planners and policy leaders assess the risks.
This summary report by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency provides historical and projected estimates of emissions of non-carbon dioxide greenhouse gases (GHGs) from anthropogenic sources. The report provides a consistent and comprehensive estimate of non-CO2 greenhouse gases for 92 individual countries and eight regions. The analysis provides information that can be used to understand national contributions of GHG emissions, historical progress on reductions, and mitigation opportunities.
Details from the current White House policy on energy security and confronting climate change.
The U.S. Agriculture and Forestry Greenhouse Gas Inventory: 1990-2008 (USDA GHG Inventory) is a comprehensive assessment of greenhouse gas emissions and sinks in U.S. agriculture and forests. The USDA GHG Inventory provides extensive, in-depth emissions and sinks estimates for livestock, cropland, and forests as well as energy consumption in livestock and cropland agriculture.
Over 360 authors from 45 countries contributed to this comprehensive appraisal of the Earth's climate. Observations from pole-to-pole show climate patterns such as La Niña and El Niño contributed to some climate events this year. Trends consistent with manmade climate change over the last 50 years are also continuing. These include warming temperatures, melting glaciers and saltier seas, which are related to rising atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations.
The Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation, released by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in May 2011, assesses existing literature on the future potential of renewable energy for the mitigation of climate change. It covers the six most important renewable energy technologies, as well as their integration into present and future energy systems.

Hey, have the story of my musical life!
So how did everyone get into music? Certain genres, whatever. I first discovered rock in.. 2006, I think, when I got Guitar Hero for PS2. My favorite song was Iron Man for a while, and then I found an album my dad had by Helloween. The Dark Ride.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBE6l3LHp3I (the title song)
That's how I was introduced to metal. I found Pandora and when I put Helloween in, I found bands like Kamelot, Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius, and Hammerfall. My dad happened to have a bunch of songs from them. My first song from that group was When the Lights are Down by Kamelot.
It was my favorite song for a while, followed by March of Mephisto, also by Kamelot. Kamelot, to this day, is arguably my favorite metal band.
Afterwards, I had such favorites as Kingdom for a Heart by Sonata Arctica, Maniac Dance by Stratovarius and Blood Bound by Hammerfall.
For a while, my music preferences remained rock/metal-centric. One day, I downloaded the song of the day from iTunes, and had a new favorite. It was Let's Dance to Joy Division by the Wombats.
My favorite Alternative/Indie band, by the way. From there on, my tastes branched out a little. I started respecting bands like Green Day, Linkin Park, Nickel Creek and so on. Obviously they weren't all punk rock bands.
I was pretty much set until I heard a few songs from a Dance Hits CD one of my friends had for his birthday party. My favorite song for a while was a certain remix of Heaven.
After that, I got into more electronic music. Mostly lighter stuff, techno, trance. I moved into dance at some point and got into Cascada and.. songs from Newgrounds. They're really good, actually. My first favorite from Cascada was Evacuate the Dance Floor, followed by Ready or Not and Fever.
Suddenly, my friend introduced the Bloody Beetroots to me. The first song I heard from them was Warp 1.9.
I had first heard more electronic styles in songs like Space Jam (yeah I know) and Stadium Rave from Spongebob (seriously, I know). The Bloody Beetroots were arguably my introduction to more hardcore electronic music, even after Cascada. I learned to like electro, hardstyle, jumpstyle, etc. It wasn't until around that point that I found Deadmau5, I believe. My favorites for him are all the ones you would expect.
It was a fairly short jump there to dubstep. I had heard a few dubstep songs and wasn't that impressed by the genre. For no particular reason, I suddenly decided to give the genre a second chance. Again, it failed to really impress me.. until I hit the dubstep remix of Inspector Gadget by Chrispy.
This gave me a little faith in the genre. I didn't find anything else worthwhile until I hit probably the most consistently good dubstep artist I am aware of, Mount Eden. I was introduced to him by means of his remix of Still Alive from Mirror's Edge and Sierra Leone.
Later I would also discover my favorite Skrillex song, Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites (through the video of cupstackinggirl, the clip in the song saying "YESS, OH MY GOSH" and having no prior knowledge of Skrillex at all) and eventually Ephixa through his Song of Storms dubstep remix.
Before that point, however, I was introduced to a rather ungenreable genre, what I like to call Swing House (officially "Electroswing"). The same friend that introduced me to the Bloody Beetroots introduced me to Goldfish and my two favorite Goldfish songs. I wasn't immediately interested, but I listened more than once, and suddenly it just clicked. The two songs (probably their most popular) were Fort Knox and Soundtracks and Comebacks.
A few other songs from them became favorites not too long after. First came Wet Welly, arguably the most Swing-iest House song they've made, followed by We Come Together and finally Cruising Through.
Later, that same friend pointed out Parov Stelar, who is even more Swing House than Goldfish. Again, my favorites are some of the obvious ones. I believe the first song I heard was Booty Swing, which turned into a favorite, followed by Catgroove, also a favorite, and Chambermaid Swing.
That about covers it with the exception of a few notable favorite songs that became favorites at some point that I've forgotten. Smash Mouth became a favorite band at some point, with my favorite song being Walkin' on the Sun.
At some point I found a song from the Bleach soundtrack that became my favorite, for reasons which should be obvious by now. The fourth song in the soundtrack, known as Can't Lose.
Finally, there was another song the artist Silva Hound said is "French House" that became an instant favorite, know as Spitfire.
Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed this wall of text. I just sort of felt like sharing a little bit of my life.
Obviously your responses, should you choose to respond, don't have to be as in depth as this, but I'm interested in hearing whatever you have to say anyway. See you on the web!

Your roof cleaning business is almost like having the ability to print your own money because you make as much money as you want to make! Clean more roofs make more money, want more time to yourself then hire employees and have them do the work for you!
Best thing about roof cleaning is that roof cleaning isn't something homeowners want to do they have to do it!! Most newly built homes are in communities called HOA's or Home Owners Associations and when homeowners buy and build a home they rarely read all the fine print until its too late and that is they must clean and maintain the appearance of the properties or face fines and even foreclosure! So when roofs get dirty inside these HOA's they are required by the rules of the HOA to clean the roof and in some cases the HOA's will clean the roof and bill the homeowner.

One thing is certain that there is no doubt that you can make more money than you ever thought possible with this business! I started my own roof cleaning business with a tax return and an ad from a industrial cleaning supply company selling a pressure rig and have never looked back. I lived in a small house in hollywood florida and moved into a 3200 sf home in palm beach. I had lived pay check to pay check with nothing but macaroni and cheese and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches working crappy jobs! Now I have the time to build this website to help others.
I paid over 40,000 dollars to go to school for computers and Information Technology and could never find a job and every year the jobs wanted something more bachelors instead of associates or two years experience instead of one it kept getting harder and harder. I had started this roof cleaning business to help put me through school not realizing that I make more money doing this then some doctors and lawyers and that's no joke! I only wish I had all the money I wasted in school to put towards my roof cleaning business. I would have actually made money with my money instead of giving it to some scam "school" what a waste . Could have used that money to help myself instead of the owner of the school getting rich off my hopes and dreams. And the job if I did land one would have been boring and making $35,000 a year on average working full time! I make that sitting at home now!
Stop wasting your life away waiting for something to happen! Take action and change your life with my guide you will learn everything you need to know to start your own roof cleaning business and more!

Hmmm: The Green Light Bundle
Steam Greenlight isn't perfect. Not by a long shot. It's still very much a work-in-progress, and ' at the moment ' it's making things harder on some developers than even the old, underdog unfriendly selection process used to. Valve has, however, made one thingabundantly clear: it wants developers to round up outside communities of their own and then take Greenlight by storm. Obviously, that's far easier said than done, but the Green Light Bundle is ' if nothing else ' an interesting attempt at making order out of chaos. Better still, it uses the 100 Percent Guaranteed Indie Game Solution To All Life Problems (Including Relationships And Spiders): 'When in doubt, bundle.'

Buffalo Bills rookie quarterback E.J. Manuel was a step closer to starting the regular season following Friday's 20-16 preseason win over the Minnesota Vikings. However, his hopes and aspirations of starting Week 1 for the Bills suffered a setback over the weekend as the team announced that Manuel will remain sidelined for the rest of the preseason with a knee injury.
The team did not announce immediately after Friday's game that Manuel had an injury. But later on Saturday, coach Doug Marrone said in a statement posted on the team's official website that Manuel experienced some swelling in his left knee and will need to undergo "minor" knee surgery.
"An MRI revealed that he will need to have a minor knee procedure and that has been scheduled," Marrone said in the statement. "He will miss the remainder of the preseason and then be re-evaluated at that time."
Marrone also said that veteran Kevin Kolb will be the starting quarterback in the Bills' third preseason next Saturday against the Washington Redskins. The injury also leaves the door open for Kolb to potentially make a comeback and improve his chances of starting the regular season, since currently it is a toss-up whether or not Manuel can even be ready by Week 1.
Kolb, who was signed by the Bills earlier in March, has been battling the Bills' 16th overall pick Manuel for the starting quarterback job all offseason. The 6-foot-3, 218-pound Kolb spent the past two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, and before that he played the first-four seasons of his career with the New England Patriots – who selected him in the second round of the 2007 NFL draft. The six-year pro Kolb has started 21 of 32 career games, throwing for 28 touchdowns and 25 interceptions while being sacked 77 times.
The 28-year-old Kolb also started Friday's game after missing the Bills' first preseason game due to a freak knee injury. However, Kolb struggled in his return this week, completing just 13 of 21 passes for 119 yards, zero touchdowns and an interception against the Vikings.
Manuel, who played the entire third-quarter, clearly outplayed Kolb on the field Friday as he completed 27 of 33 passes for 199 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also ran four times for 29 yards in the game.
Jeff Tuel is the Bills' third-string quarterback on the depth chart.
Marrone also announced that wide receiver Kevin Elliot was done for the 2013 season after suffering an ACL tear.

Lueali stuff I don't remember drawing.
We did a brief modern AU where Arik and Ren were roommates and Lue was their annoying friend. We didn't get too far in it but I can only imagine this all being very awkward in the future.
Arik regrets agreeing to watch a movie with these two losers, who insist they aren't involved romantically but won't stop clinging to each other whenever something scary happens.
Lue: "Does he talk about me? What does he say?"Ren: "He doesn't really talk…"Lue: "Has he mentioned me? Has he noticed me? What does he think? Does he think about me?"Ren: "I'm not a mind-reader, Lue."Lue: *~woe is me~*Ren: *eyerolls into the sun*
One of the first things that happened on Sigil was that these two losers went off trying to find Arik. This is sort of how I imagined them describing him to people.
Lueali: "He's tall and GORGEOUS have you seen him it's important."Lafiat: "He always makes this face!"
Sigil!Lue vs Avlis!Lue and Arik + reading. Elves are basically cats.
Arik and Lueali.
Arik and jerkface Lueali. I don't know what's going on here but I think this drawing summarizes their relationship pretty well. Lue probably turned a lecture into innuendo and Arik is trying to work out how to respond to this while Lue is now convinced he's "won" the argument.

Sacramento, CAUSA 95820
March 3, 2010
Any that leave from Downtown Sac or thereabouts.
Have fun and increase my weekly mileage.
I just started commuting to work by bike last year and love it. Now I want to add some weekend rides and hopefully do a bike tour in the summer.
Hi Lisa, pardon me, but I am looking for a ride from/to downtown Sac for the BBQ tomorrow (a ride back is more important since I would have to catch the Amtrak home that evening). Thanks in advance--this would be my first meetup with the group! :) Heather
Cute photo Lisa!!
Nice teeth!
Lisa- thanks for joining the group and standing up against abuse and injustice! Cam
Hi Lisa. Welcome to the group for helping animals. Please take a look at our calendar and sign up for an event. We are meeting this weekend for a peaceful anti-circus demo and will post many more events to come. I look forward to meeting you. XOX, Jan
We will definitely be there past 8. Stop by.
Welcome to the Sacramento Area Skeptics meetup group. I hope to see you at one of our meetings soon.

We are connecting closer and closer to our tools. With Affectiva, the computer, smartphone or car can now even understand our emotional reactions by an ordinary video camera and/or a sensor touching your skin. It is already being used for collecting reactions from surveys for marketing purposes.
I can also imagine we can use it to accumulate usersemotional reactions to e g frustrating software interfaces and send the information back to the developers (in form of direct stimulation of the brain or just electrical shocks??)… I wonder how many Microsoft or SAP developers would survive that feedback?

Hi Everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing difficulties losing weight and/or is gaining weight due to allergy medications (Zyrtec is what I take) or allergy shots??
After researching it a bit, I think this may be the culprit behind my few pounds (about 5) of weight gain in these past few months. It's not fun at all!! I probably eat better now than I did a few months ago, and I exercise 4-5 days a week, so I don't think the weight gain is due to a lifestyle change.
Any input? Have you had a similar experience? If so, what did you do? I'm going to contact my allergist tomorrow- just thought I'd get your input too!

I noticed the same thing after adding Zyrtec. It's been about a month and the couple pounds I felt like I gained has been lost again. I"m glad it's gone, but it feels like I've wasted a month. The improvement in my quality of life that the drug brings has been signifigant, so I'm willing to see if I can continue to lose while I take it. I'm hoping it's like the fatigue side affect that has improved the longer I've taken it. I would be curious what your allergist says about it.

The shots should have no influence whatsoever.
The anithistamine 'might' have some minimal effect as antihistamines are all CNS depressants. I got shots for 25 years (yes, that's way too long but they didn't know that back then) and have been on antihistamines daily my entire life. So I don't think you can blame this on the antihistamine.
I honestly doubt it's the Zyrtec, although I am too sleepy on Zyrtec to use it. Maybe try a different antihistamine if you're finding Zyrtec causes drowsiness.

It may not be the shots, but I definitely think the Zyrtec is doing something to my body. Starting today, I'm going to get off of it and see how I do! Thanks for the responses. I'll let you know what the allergist has to say...

I studied Computer Science at the University of Reading. I am a geek. Programming is my passion and I am working towards becoming a brilliant coder.
I like music, movies, photography, reading and if I can ever get around to it, writing. Also a fan of horror, sci-fi and fantasy so there's plenty of re/blogging on those areas.
I write gig/event reviews at From The Pit
Elsewhere on the web:
Many tweaks to this and web presence in general in the pipeline... when I get around to it.
Weekly Top Artists (via Last.fm):
So this originally started off as me wanting to talk about ...
No, I do not want unpaid interns. A lot of people have offered and that breaks my fucking heart. I feel like unpaid...
woah that sounds so weird and grownup and corporate and that makes me want to go get a beer.
So, a while back I promised you (or whoever reads my blog anyway) and myself that in an effort to keep my blog regularly updated, I'd put up articles and things that I write for Spark*, the student newspaper at my university The University of Reading. So this is me making a start on that. We used to have a "In Other News" column but I decided to re-purpose it into an Editorial. I feel it adds a personal touch to the section.
I also happen to be the Web Editor too so I heartily encourage you to go have a look at the website at www.sparknewspaper.co.uk, and if you want to read the latest issue, then that's just gone up on Issuu - check out the Issuu page on the website or go straight to Issuu.
Right, I haven't blogged in months but I am still alive. I've just been more active in other places, like Twitter.
In terms of content, I'll soon be posting up new articles on a (hopefully) regular basis - but more on that in a moment.
Anyway, how is everyone? I've been doing alright. I've been keeping quite busy actually. In the past few months I've been getting stuck in with student media at Reading University.
As of March I've been working on the radio station Junction11's twice-weekly news show and for the past two shows I've even been able to read some of it. You can listen to Junction11 online on their website. And as of last month I'm one of the two new editors for the Science & Technology section of our Spark* newspaper - I finished editing our section yesterday for the next issue, out this Friday. It's also likely that I'm also going to be the new Spark* Web Editor too because right now all we've got right now is the twitter account @SparkNewspaper - someone needs to get the Spark* website back up and running and keep it that way. It had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it wrong. ;).
And hopefully I can get more involved with RUON TV, our TV station… going to production meeting tomorrow to see what comes up.
But anyway, on to content. Whenever I write an article for Spark*, I'll also post it on my blog :)

NEW YORK Taseko Mines Ltd. has received a 72-hour strike notice from the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW) union, which represents employees at the companys majority-owned Gibraltar copper and molybdenum mine in British Columbia.
The labor contract has expired and "there are some outstanding issues that have to be dealt with," CAW lead negotiator Peter Smith told AMM Wednesday. The union and Taseko are working to agree on dates for further negotiation, he added.
"Taseko remains firmly committed to negotiating a new contract with the CAW and avoiding strike action," the Vancouver-based company said.
The Gibraltar Mine, which produced 23.7 million pounds of copper and 276,000 pounds of molybdenum in the quarter ended Sept. 30, is owned 75 percent by Taseko and 25 percent by Cariboo Copper Corp., a subsidiary of Tokyo-based Sojitz Corp.

How to Sell Managed Services
Selling managed access and video is a different animal, and compensation should hinge on RMR
"There is no instant payout," Dubey stated. Many dealers will need other business to keep the lights on between moving to SaaS or managed services and seeing that increased revenue stream. Since cloud technology has caught up with access control, integrators have the ability to manage several facilities or campuses under one umbrella.
"The ultimate, real question for dealers is whether they can provide their customers complete access," Dubey said. "The sale is a long-term relationship. If you prove to your customer that you provide lower cost of ownership there will be more opportunities to sell to them and you will be more profitable over the long haul."

Hello all, first post here.I've read a lot online about how awful this router is. I'm currently renting a basement apartment and the wireless internet was included by my landlord as part of the deal. Problem is most nights I can't stay connected to this router for longer than 30 minutes. Tonight it has gone down every 5 minutes since I got off of work (can see this happening when logged into the router).I'm not the most technical savvy person in the world, but there is definitely something very wrong here. I notice it mostly when using XBox because it tosses me out of everything. However it is still quite a nuisance when browsing and having to toggle the wifi to get it to reconnect.Wondering if there is any solution to this? I've thought about mentioning this to my landlord but I know they are having a rough time with sick family members and don't want to be a nuisance to them, especially since obviously they haven't noticed this issue or don't care because it would have been fixed by now if not.Anything I can do by logging into the router or anything?When it goes down it says Down (not trained) and it seems like everything loses connection, wireless and the wired connection as well. Atleast thats how I interpreted it if that helps any.Thanks for reading.
Hello! And welcome to the forums!Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this a Telus modem and not a Bell modem?
Thanks!It is a Bell modem. Telus may have also used it though, and still may, I'm not sure.In the router it's listed as "Sagemcom SE567/8"
Bell Alliant ?
That's correct
Just to add more info, when I log into the router and "check to see if it's working properly", there is a red X that goes through "Network Connection" but the Wireless usually still has a green checkmark. Not sure if this helps any. Hoping that there is something I can do about it though.

Lawn Gone!: Low-Maintenance, Sustainable, Attractive Alternatives for Your Yardby Pam Penick
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A colorful guide covering the basics of replacing a traditional lawn with a wide variety of easy-care, no-mow, drought-tolerant, money-saving options that will appeal to today's busy, eco-conscious homeowner.
Americans pour 300 million gallons of gas and 1 billion hours every year into mowing their lawns, not to mention 70 million pounds of pesticides and $40 billion for lawn upkeep. No Wonder the anti-lawn movement is thriving, as today's eco-conscious consumers realize that their traditional lawns are water-hogging, chemical-ridden, maintenance-intensive burdens. Lawn Gone!, from award-winning gardening blogger Pam Penick, is the first basic introduction to low-water, easy-care lawn alternatives for beginning gardeners, written in a friendly style with an approachable package. It covers all the available time-saving options: alternative grasses, ground cover plants, artificial turf, hardscaping, mulch, and more. In addition, it includes step-by-step lawn-removal methods, strategies for dealing with neighbors and homeowner associations, and how to minimize your lawn if you're not ready to go all the way.

What's up, Addicts? Adam reporting from Ohio here. Yesterday we arrived in Cleveland and visited the Hall of Fame. Walking from our parking spot to the Hall, we saw a huge banner of Derrick Thomas hanging from the stadium. That's when it hit me; this is actually happening — D.T. is going to get into the HoF.
When you walk into the Hall, all of this year's inductees have a panel dedicated to them in the entrance tunnel. That was the first of Derrick Thomas was everywhere. Mugs. Stand-ups. T-shirts. Hats. Programs. Fatheads.
We talked to quite a few Chiefs fans who are also up here for Derrick. As far as non-Chiefs fans, it was nice to see the level of respect they had for our beloved No. 58. It's very exciting to see my favorite Chief finally getting his due, but that's not all I am excited about.
I can smell the NFL season. It's in the air — football time, baby. Walking through the Hall, looking at the busts, I felt like Jamie Foxx hearing Al Pacino rave about the greats of the game. I looked at the open slots for Derrick and the other 2009 inductees, and then I looked to my right. Who else we make the Hall? Adrian Peterson? Maybe. Jerry Rice. Michael Strahan. Tom Brady. But what Chiefs?
Tony Gonzalez will be there. So will Willie Roaf and Will Shields. But who else? Zach Thomas? Not even a real Chief, at least yet. Priest Holmes? Didn't dominate for long enough. Larry Johnson? Same. What about the young bucks? Really too early to talk about any of them, and we may never need to talk about them. Then again, Dwayne Bowe is the best Chiefs receiver in Chiefs' history through his first couple seasons. Maybe some day, with hard work and a lot of luck, he can do what Otis Taylor could not.
We'll keep you posted for sure. We're heading to Browns training camp today to feed our football fix. It will certainly be interesting to see another team remodeling itself with the original Patriots model in mind, even if the architect hates the Patriots now.

Ulthera Breaks down Scultpra
- calibeachgirl
- 2 years ago
I had Ultherapy done on my entire face. By far the best skin tightening device on the market. I had beautiful results. But I did notice it "blew away" / broke down the Sculptra I had done. I tried Radiesse for the first time along my cheeks. I hate the results! it looks and feel unnatural compared to Scultpra. I read that Radiesse cannot be dissolved like Juvederm etc. Since Ulthera broke down the Sculptra, do you think it would also breakdown Radiesse? I have read there are no studies on it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't breakdown fillers. I'm interested in knowing peoples experience with seeing filler breaking down via Ulthera or other laser devices?

It sounds like you might be on to something. Here are some Q&A's that touch on that subject:
Safe to Have Ulthera if You Have Had Sculptra, Restylane or Juvederm?
Is It OK to Have Ulthera Done if You've Had Sculptra Injections?

Worse than Richard Williamson's Bucs. Worse than Leeman Bennett's. Worse even than John McKay's.
Four more games and history is theirs to claim.
Four more defeats and it can be argued that this is the most disappointing team in the often disappointing history of the Tampa Bay Bucs.
This guy brings up an interesting point. When the Bucs went 0-26 they were an expansion team with has beens and wannabes. This team might actually be worse if you take into account what they have done with having so much more to work with.
I particularly like the guys quote about Culverhouse.
"If you have ever griped about the Glazers not spending money, remind yourself that Culverhouse could squeeze a nickel so tightly that Thomas Jefferson's descendants got headaches."
Well one thing is for sure we suck and there is no end in site. I am starting it now the Fire the Raheem movement.
