Do you tend to remember things from childhood as bigger than they seem now; because you were smaller, things felt bigger? I’ve found the same principle applies to some books from my childhood. “Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH” is one of those books. I remember the story as a great adventure. Now, having re-read it, it is a much simpler story. And while that by no means lessened my enjoyment of the book, it was a different experience than I recalled. Much of the middle of the story is dedicated to the explanation of how the Rats of NIMH came to be and why they are living under the farmer’s rosebush. I did not remember much of this part of the story and it was a nice surprise reading it again. All in all, “Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH” is still a classic. It holds up very well for a book written almost 40 years ago.
My Stories from Days Gone By series revisits books from my childhood to see how they read today.
It’s been a long time since I read this book, the first in the prolific series. Although I have memories of “The Baby-Sitters Club” as a mainstay of my childhood reading, I could not remember many details. The writing is simplistic and very 80s. I laughed a couple of times when there were descriptions of clothing. Despite some slightly dated references, I feel that the plots–in not just this book but the series–are good, clean, fun stories for kids growing up. They are educational without being boring and have morality without being preachy. All in all, I will declare that “The Baby-Sitters Club” holds up rather well over time.
And now… another in my occasional series revisiting books from childhood.
Review: I’d forgotten how short this book is. The version I read is only 189 pages with a fairly good size font and pictures. My memories of the story seemed far more epic than 189 pages. Nonetheless, the story holds up remarkably well for having been published in 1950. The world of Narnia feels just a vast and fantastical as I remember. My one complaint is that reading it as an adult, I want an even more in-depth story whereas as a child I was simply awed by the story on the page. But, all in all, still a classic.
Review: Nostalgia alert! This was my favorite book growing up so read this review through my rose colored glasses. It’s hard for me to point to exactly what speaks to me about this story but I still end up crying at the end. It’s weird because I don’t necessarily relate to the two main characters and I don’t really think I ever did but what they go through seems to engross me. The coming-of-age story hits me with its focus on friendship, the importance of having someone accept you for who you are and the power of imagination. Even after all these years, still a classic for me.

But, like most adventures on the bleeding edge, it’s still on its way. At least now we are seeing that it’s taking shape ….
Steve Graber – who is 6’2″ – standing inside the Gigante frame.
Is it art, or is it a print?
The subject always comes up when you mention 3D printing and art in the same sentence.
The answer is another question: “Is photography art?” Which leads to the realization that 3D printing, like a camera, is just a tool. Sometimes it makes art, and sometimes it doesn’t. That seems pretty simple.
As I work with 3D printing, though, I realize that there is more nuance to this question.
Lately I’ve been working on a series of 3D-printed sculptures. I will be offering them for sale, and they are clearly in a different category than original artwork that is created by hand.
Or are they? Again, the answer isn’t so obvious.
Yes, once I get my forms printed the way I want them, I will be able to print multiples. But right now, I’m still playing with materials, sizes and construction methods, because there are a number of ways to create the structure.
So at this point, every piece is unique. That means they aren’t production pieces, like photographic or fine art prints, or even bronzes. Someday they will be, but right now, each piece I create is an individual piece of art created with a tool called a 3D printer.
The Gigante is …. coming!
For several months now, I’ve been champing at the big to receive the giant delta-style 3D printer that Steve and Jacob Graber are making for me. It’s called the Gigante for good reason.
How giant is it? The printer itself is 8 feet tall. It will print an item 5 feet tall and 34 inches in diameter.
I hope to take delivery next week. You can bet you’ll hear – and see – more about this printer.
It’s been fun playing with an entirely different material than the metal I’m used to in the form of the ABS and PLA plastics that most 3D printers use.
My CubeX 3D printer seems to prefer ABS, while the Cerberus 3D printer seems to work better with PLA.
Both, obviously, are a lot different that working with steel. Increasingly, I am playing with the possibilities of forms I can create in plastic that would be impossible in metal.
After a little adjustment to the Cerberus printer that the Grabers loaned me, I’m printing again. Steve and Joseph Graber, who build these open-source design printers, have been wonderful to work with.
I appreciate having the opportunity to get familiar with this delta style printer and the software, which is very different from that I use with my CubeX printer, especially because there’s a 3D art show coming up soon at the Shemer Art Center, and I want to submit several sculptures.
Accordingly, I have begun printing some of the designs I’ve created in CAD. It’s amazing to be able to see and handle these sculptures rather than just look at the drawings. Even though I can rotate the drawings in my CAD program, actually seeing them in their physical state is vastly different, even if the sculptures aren’t 9 feet tall, as I first conceived them.
The democratization of art through 3D printing?
A recent Fast Company story about the recreation of Marcel Duchamp’s long-lost chess set poses the idea that 3D printing could allow “the masses” (that’s regular folks) to enjoy otherwise unaffordable art.
While I’m not Marcel Duchamp, I’ve realized this opportunity also applies to my creations.
As my work goes up in price, people who would like to own one of my sculptures are increasingly priced out of doing so. Being able to print versions of my pieces opens up a world of possibilities for both original 3D-printed designs such as Holy Cannoli and reproductions of existing sculptures.
The latter will be coming soon in a line I’m calling Progeny to differentiate the pieces from original sculpture. I’ll be using new materials and colors, but the cost will be affordable so people who’d like to own some of my work can.
I’ll be introducing my Progeny line before the end of the year, so stay tuned ….

The future is unknown, but we can't help but feel it is somewhat predicted unless we stop climate projections in their tracks. Changes on our planet are undisputed: a rise in global average temperatures, smog and pollution plagues, and random, disastrous weather patterns (to name a few) have become common place.
Unequivically accept that all life on this planet is connected and that we should live consciously, sustainably and with respect for ourselves, each other, and all living things. This requires us to step out of ourselves and see the greater web of connection.
Believe in community. The foundation for our work lies in the spirit of community and it drives everything we do. We support each other with messages of strength and empowerment. Be a friend, mentor, and inspiration to live better.
Take time for yourself. Embrace a slower pace, and know that in order to serve others we must first serve ourselves. Look for ways to live efficiently and simply, organized to increase freedom and reduce stress. Be sure to set some time aside to do the things that matter most to you, be it spending time on the mat, with your nose buried in a book, or with your hands in the earth. We honor ourselves by living holistically, eating foods that nourish us, choosing thoughts that empower us, and choosing to fill our homes with objects that possess the integrity of being made well and free from harmful chemicals. Focus on feeling, and being, well.
Eat with good conscience. What we eat is the foundation of a sustainable life. Eat close to the earth, and whenever possible shop at farmers' markets for food that is grown locally and organically, or better yet, forage and grow food yourself. Love and respect food, and believe in its power to nourish our souls as well as our bellies. At bare minimum, to quote Michael Pollan: "Eat food [real food]. Mostly plants."
Speak up. The greatest danger is that we adopt a fatalistic view, believing that the world happens to us and that we have no role of any consequence. This is untrue. Your actions matter. If you see things happening at the policy level, be it municipally or federally, find a way to make your opinion known. Send an email, sign (or even start) a petition and share it with your circle of influence, etc. Try to do things in a way that feel true to you, even if it's simply starting a green program at your child's school, or volunteering if one exists. Start to believe in the power of one (and that, indeed, 1+1=2, and so on and so forth).
Purchase consciously. It may not always feasible or within our budget to buy organic or sustainably, but usually at least an option can be found that is locally handmade. Aim to buy quality, and timeless design—if it doesn't wear out quickly or go out of style, it won't have to be replaced.

Readings for this Sunday’s Lectionary passages are available here.
Some of us may be celebrating All Saints this weekend as well. Here are those readings. If you have great All Saints traditions in your congregations that you’d like to share here, please do so. Here’s a pic from our All Saints service last weekend. As people came forward for communion, they were invited to light candles in memory of the saints who from their labors rest.
To which passages are you drawn to this week?
We will be dedicating stewardship pledges for 2015 this Sunday, so I might be leaning toward Joshua’s account of finally entering the Promised Land.
Matthew’s reminder that the greatest among us will be our servants and those who exalt themselves will be humbled is always a good text too.
Great ideas that have worked for stewardship season are always welcome too.
Where are you leaning? Please share your thoughts here.
Preaching All Saints’ this week, which is a big deal in my congregation. Lots of work done planning liturgy and a time of remembrance, reading names, lighting candles, baptism remembrance, etc. Planning to focus on the Beatitudes for the sermon but haven’t gotten further than that. What’s everyone else up to this weekend?
All Saints had not been a big deal for my congregation, but they liked it when we did it (early) last weekend.
This weekend, I’m using the Joshua text entering the Promised Land with the All Saints 1 John text about “what we will be has not yet been revealed”.
And then maybe a soccer tournament for my son. Once your kids are 16, the details are so much harder to come by!
Blessings on All Saints for your people. And thanks for those who from their labors rest.

If you have been doing web development long enough, you have probably noticed there are different unit sizes you can use.
There is pixels (px), ephemeral units (em), root ephemeral units (rem) and percent. They all seem to change the size of your text, containers and other elements in HTML.
Which one am I suppose to use?
There are a lot of debates on this topic, but there are some rules of thumb for each one. As like all rules in web development, it is important to follow them. But they are not written in stone and there are times that it necessary to break them.
The biggest differences you will find in the type of sizing units is how they react to scaling the size of your internet browser. Some scale better than others, and others will react different depending on the internet browser and computer operating system the user is using.
A pixel is equal to one dot on your computer screen. With px, you can lock an element in place to an exact location on the page. Or you can have an element be exactly a certain size. This could be useful to keep you design pixel perfect with your web design.
This can have a negative impact with mobile users or a liquid web design. Your elements won’t adjust for the size of the web browser, they will stay the same size you specified.
This unit is becoming a popular choice for web developers. An em will take the defined font size of your page and then increase or decrease from there. For example if you have your <body> elements set at 16px, then 1em will be 16px, 1.5em will be 24px, 2em will be 32px.
Why this is a good choice is that different operating systems? Both desktop and mobile may have a different opinion on what is 16px. By using an em to increase or decrease elements, this will adjust from you a threshold (1em) and move from there.
Using rem is exactly like using the em method. What is different with the rem is that it will use the root element of the page, a.k.a. the <html> tag, for its threshold.
Whatever size the <html> tag is defined at, the rem will use this as a starting point. Then increase and decrease from there with the same principle as em.
By using the percent as your sizing method, this is probably the easiest one to understand what is happening visually in your code.
If you have something 100% and something 150%, you can notice that the one element will be 50% bigger than the other. If you need something twice as big, just double it.
rem vs em is hard to separate. They both relatively work the same, but I would recommend using em over rem. This gives you more control over your baseline and rem is only supported in newer internet browsers. You will get more compatibility across desktop and mobile devices with em.
Take note that rem sizing method is not supported. in older web browsers. These versions do supported the measurement: Internet Explorer 9+, Safari, Chrome and Firefox 3+.
I wouldn't say that you should use one over the other. It depends on the situation. For example, you would use exact pixels if you are designing for a responsive mobile design. Having the exact pixel will ensure that your layout certain resolutions are exactly the correct size. Pixels are also useful to keep images from breaking your site's design.
As for font-size, padding and margins, using an em will keep things more balanced when user are on different browsers and screen resolution. By increase or decrease from a baseline, everything will expand or contract equally.
As these two sizing methods work in the same manner, they will give you close but different results. By comparing all the different options, these two will give you the closest results between each other. But again you will want to use percent for defining widths in elements, such as liquid web design or responsive mobile designs.
It is important to see the differences between the types to sizing. Below are some font-sizes and padding different between px vs em vs rem vs percent.
*These sizes are based off WHDP's current design.
I believe you should use all of them. Each one has the best practice depending on what you want to accomplish. You might want to steer away from rem, because of it’s not fully supported at the time of this writing. Start using them all and start identifying how each one reacts to increase and decrease sizing.
I get a lot of my students asking me what is the best and if they can still use px. I've been converting them over to em.
From what I've been seeing in the industry, that is probably the best route to go.

In the event there is not a Will, this initial consultation is most effective when it is with the surviving spouse or other immediate family member. Please bring two certified death certificates along with the original Will, if there is a Will. Prior to our first meeting, we will also provide you with a questionnaire to complete regarding the Decedent.
After our initial consultation, our office will prepare the initial documents necessary to open probate for the Estate of the Decedent. We will schedule a second appointment for you to return to review and sign the documents necessary to open Probate with the Court.
Our office will attend a court hearing to request the judge to approve our request to open probate for the Decedent. Your appearance is not necessary for us to open probate, we will take care of this for you. Once the judge approves the request, we will simultaneously obtain Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration, which is a court document which verifies your authority to act on behalf of the Estate of the Decedent.
After the court approves the opening of probate, there are a number of notices our office will issue. We will issue notices to heirs, known creditors, the State of Washington, and state law also requires that we publish notice to any unknown creditors in a local newspaper. After publishing the notice in the newspaper, we have a four month waiting period, in which creditors have that time to file any claims against the Estate for debts owed.
While we are waiting during this four month period, we will obtain a TIN (Tax Identification Number) for the Estate, which you will need in order to open an estate bank account. All of the Decedent's bank accounts should be liquidated and consolidated into the Estate's bank account. In addition, assets of the Decedent may be liquidated and deposited into the Estate bank account as well. It is important that you keep an accounting of the Decedent's estate, as our office will need to prepare an inventory of the Estate as well.
Once the four month period has lapsed, all assets have been acquired and all debts paid, the Probate will then be ready to be closed. We will work with you to determine the proper disbursement calculations, and prepare the final documents to close the Probate. Once the final probate documents have been filed with the Court, the Estate is closed and you are relieved from your duties as the Personal Representative.

This exhibit in the nation’s capital was established in 1976 and is considered the premier destination for those interested in the art-form. Located in the United States National Arboretum in Washington, D.C., the exhibit boasts many beautiful specimens including the famous 390 year old tree that survived the Hiroshima explosion. Don’t miss this expansive display of Chinese, Japanese, and American subjects.
This exhibit in Oakland, CA is maintained by the Golden State Bonsai Federation and contains an impressive collection of literally hundreds of trees, from Trident Maple and Korean Hornbeam to Redwoods and Shimpaku Junipers. The list is exhaustive, and there is something for virtually every enthusiast in this beautiful, colorful collection.
The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, CA is the second of the two exhibits maintained by the Golden State Bonsai Federation. The Huntington’s collection is considered one of the finest of its kind in the United States, and their ever-changing exhibit contains trees ranging from relatively young to around 1000 years old. The collection numbers in the hundreds, with a multitude of species. The trees span two peaceful courtyards, with the shohin collection residing against the soothing background of a beautiful water feature.
The bonsai collection at the NC Arboretum is fairly new, having been established in 1992 upon the generous donation of a number of trees from a private donor. The Arboretum took off with the concept of a display and assigned caretakers to the precious trees. Since that time, the exhibit has grown to over a hundred specimens, including some cultivated from seeds or cuttings right onsite. The Arboretum takes particular pride in their local species, such as the Eastern White Pine and American Hornbeam, which represent the Blue Ridge region and allow the exhibit to retain a local flair.
The story of the Sho Fu Bonsai Exhibit at Selby in Sarasota, FL is an interesting one. The Sho Fu Bonsai Society approached Selby in 2007 with the idea of instituting a bonsai exhibit. It took two years and much negotiation and fundraising on the part of the society, but in 2009 the exhibit finally opened, appropriately timed during the Asian Festival. The display is small but elegant, and is a testament to the devotion and perseverance of enthusiasts. Volunteers from Sho Fu maintain the exhibit.
If you have the opportunity to visit one of these beautiful exhibits, you won’t be disappointed. It might even inspire you to donate a tree or two to your own local botanical gardens. As awareness and popularity of the art-form spread, more and more people will be exposed to bonsai through amazing displays like these.

Price hike: While the older phones are seeing some price drops, Apple actually raised prices on one device: The iPad Pro. Prices for that quietly went up by $50 on Tuesday. While price increases are rare in tech, they aren't unheard of. Increase in component costs are probably to blame.

Since 1990 Francesco Paszkowski and his self-named design studio have been working with owners and shipyards all over the world, creating both planing and displacement yachts, exteriors and interiors, production and custom vessels. Nowadays, Francesco is one of the leading yacht designers on the international scene.
The Francesco Paszkowski Yacht Design Studio combines the knowledge of designers and architects to devise creative solutions for every aspect of a project. they have a large portfolio, having worked with baglietto, heesen yachts, CRN, sanlorenzo and tankoa yachts.
In the next lines you will be able to read Francesco interview to Design Boom.
Q. What originally made you want to become a designer?
F.P.: I liked drawing and I could well. as a young boy I had fun sketching car details. I can remember really well when I decided to become a designer and why. it was when I visited an exhibition of an important Italian designer with my dad, a graphic designer. when I came home I had made my decision for my future.
Q. Who / what has been the biggest influence on your work to date?
F.P.: First of all I inherited the passion for pencil drawing from my father. after that, I was lucky to work for years at spadolini design firm with pierluigi spadolini and his son, tommaso. working alongside him was fundamental for my career, as it was where I began to work on boats. later on, I can also mention alberto mercati, pininfarina, gerhard gilgenast and jon bannenberg.
Q. For new projects, where do you draw ideas from?
Q. how do you try to keep these ideas current?
F.P.: Just look around yourself anytime, keep informed about progress in other fields and by talking with people as there’s always something you can learn from them. knowledge of materials and their potential features are essential as well as the latest technologies – provided you can use them properly.
Q. what are the main aspects taken into consideration during a yacht design process?
F.P.: If you are working at a custom yacht company then you’ve got to understand her owner’s wishes. we usually try to understand how he lives and what he likes in order to suggest the best options. If you are working at a yacht series, it’s a different challenge. first of all, a primary task of every designer is to look ahead in order to understand how his desires and tastes will evolve in five years’ time. secondly, yachts must be designed to be seaworthy and this remains the case even when we are looking for original and innovative solutions. in both cases a designer has to keep looking ahead while enhancing the most of his experience and making the best combination of details coming from the past and the future.
Q. Are cinemas, swimming pools and recording studios the most unique features that clients have asked you to incorporate into a design? if not, then what are?
F.P.: I can’t remember crazy things…just the desire of having unique solutions on-board. we were asked once to install a fireplace in the master bedroom so put in an electric one – it provided a welcoming atmosphere.
Q. Is there a large demand for environmentally friendly super-yachts at present? and is this an area that CRN are trying to involve into new designs?
F.P.: Everybody is looking for environment friendly solutions, which is of course more difficult for motor-yachts than for sailing boats. in order to respect the environment, the market is looking for new yacht types and engineers are looking for new proposals. Speed is no longer a critical factor or essential criterion, while efficiency and fuel economy are getting more and more important. some builders have already tried to use electric engines, but they are still very far from success. also, some others are focusing on designing hulls with a better performance, even utilizing diesel engines and trying to lower consumption with smaller power requirements.
Q. Is there a boat that you have designed that you would love to have as your own?
F.P.: It’s like asking which of your kids you like more…. when you work for so long at a design and then follow the construction, trying to design the most beautiful boat ever and make your customer happy to own her, means every boat becomes special for a designer. however, according to every designer’s opinion, the most beautiful boat is always the next one you’re going to design! you think you can do better with the next one as you get more experienced over time. There are actually a couple I am more fond of, but this kind of feeling is more related to the special relationship with her owners than to the yacht herself. you know, people are the most important side of this work and I met a lot of interesting people – at the yards and owners as well – I learned a lot from them. it really doesn’t make any difference whether you’re working on a boat or on any other project because you’re always cooperating with people. people are always the main issue.
Q. Are there any new projects that you are working on? if so, could you enlighten our readers with some information?
F.P.: I’m currently working on some new designs and yachts under construction for baglietto, such as both planing and displacement vessels that includes a 46-m and a 54-m displacement yacht, a 46 -m and a 43-m fast. for all of them we designed the exterior and interior, the inside was in cooperation with architect margherita casprini. We are are also working on new designs with CRN, as well as tankoa yachts – including a 69-m that margherita casprini again designed the interior for. a 42-m explorer by sanlorenzo – our firm designed the exterior – is currently under construction at the yard. there are of course more projects under way but we could talk about them at a later stage.
Q. What do you envisage yacht design to look like in 10 years?
F.P.: progress never stops. a lot has changed in the past 20 years and we are likely to experience even more. as the owners’ needs change, so are the yachts. as I already mentioned, an example of this is the search for more environmentally friendly boats. Design basics on the other hand – I mean how you try to understand people’s needs and how to propose solutions to meet them – will remain the same. you will aim at a different result through small changes, not big revolutions. it can seem strange but realizable innovations are achievable by working more on the details. this is a hard job that you often can’t imagine or even see.
Q. what advice would you give to emerging designers and students who are entering the yacht industry?
FP: Passion, dedication and the will to learn. like any other work, you should love it from the very bottom of your heart because it can be really tough sometimes. yachts are beautiful and being a yacht designer is a great job but there’s a lot of work behind it. so just be ready to work hard, be aware you can just grow step by step – and not all of a sudden – provided you look around and try to learn the most you can from all the people you work with.

When someone mentions spring, it’s almost impossible not to think of the bright yellow flower that graces fields, roadsides, hedgerows and of course the flowers in your home. The daffodil has taken its place alongside the tulip as the iconic flower of spring.
In fact, the daffodil is one of the most popular flowers in the world and is the number one favourite flower in Germany. Just what makes the daffodil so special?
Narcissus as they are officially known are typically yellow or white in appearance, recognised by the bell shaped flowers and tubular stems.
The brilliant thing about daffodils is that they are so easy to grow your own and with very little effort you can grow a brilliant display of spring flowers in your own garden, allotment or even a balcony, bringing colour and joy to even the most limited of spaces.
Be sure to choose somewhere that has plenty of sunlight and ensure the soil is moderately fertile and well drained. Before planting your bulb, check whether the variety chosen prefers a more alkaline or a more acidic soil, though more neutral to acidic soils are more common, some varieties benefit from a more alkaline soil.
The larger the bulb, typically, the better. An excellent indication of the welfare of the bulb and most likely to provide more beautiful flowers. Plant your bulbs in autumn, ideally from two to four weeks before the first frost can be expected for best effects, and aim to plant them from twice to five times their depth in the ground and between three and six inches apart from each other.
In China, the daffodil is a symbol of wealth and good fortune, and sending a beautiful bouquet of daffodils to someone is to wish them a prosperous year in all they do. Furthermore, daffodils are simply beautiful and will bring sunshine to any room in the house.
The most common association of the daffodil is St David’s Day, where a daffodil is worn on the lapel of those celebrating the occasion. This tradition is said to date back to an occasion when a Welsh troop of soldiers were able to identify one another from a troop of English soldiers by the leek they wore on their uniform. Daffodils become the replacement for this due to the similarity in their names, cenhinen (leek) and cenhinen Pedr (Peter’s leek) as the daffodil has been known.

The Galaxy Watch has been available on retail shelves for a week or so in the United States at this point, and Samsung will be starting sales of its latest smartwatches in other markets in the coming days. The Galaxy Watch brings a complete rebranding to Samsung’s smartwatch lineup, along with options for consumers with small and big wrists (unlike the Gear S3, which wasn’t a good fit for folks with small wrists). Oh, and it’s also the launch pad for Bixby’s wearable debut.
Our Galaxy Watch review will be here within the next week, but in the meantime, we would like to know if you have ordered the watch or will be ordering it once it goes on sale in your country. You can tell us by voting in the poll below; if you’re already using the watch, do talk about how your experience has been down in the comments section.
Have you ordered the Samsung Galaxy Watch?
Pre-ordered but been told there are supply issues and will have to wait until next week for it to be delivered. This was through Argos in the UK.
Also wish Samsung would get other banks on board in the UK as their current support is abysmal. I want to use Samsung Pay but not got the option.
I didn’t bother. I’m very happy with the S3 Frontier and just got a new battery installed a couple of months ago. My wife has the Gear Sport she got free with her S9 plus. However it’s a great buy for anyone wanting their first smartwatch or upgrading from S2 or older.
Anyone who buys the hype of the Galaxy watch has too much money.
I had Gear Fit 2 for 2 years and preordered GW 46mm. Today I will get it.
i am a smartwatch junkie, i have gotten every new smartwatch when it comes out from samsung, but i skipped this one because it is missing the MST samsung pay feature that the S3 has, so i am sticking with my S3 and considering putting in a new battery myself in a few months to get more life out of it.
you change the battery yourself, you will almost certainly lose the IP68 rating. MST has been on phones since the S6, so just use that. the Galaxy Watch is fully waterproof has more enhanced sensors and a much longer battery life and longevity. the Gear S3 is a good watch, and I have had it since launch, but the removal of just one feature shouldn’t offset the rest.
Agreed. Here in the UK we don’t need MST as our contactless payment system is pretty much mature enough to stand on its own however I do think Samsung really needs to push the banks further to expand with Samsung Pay. It’s hardly on any banks and no updates in almost a year on new additions. We need PayPal like in the US too.
I had my Gear S2 since launch day and it never even got Samsung Pay.
Mine should arrive tomorrow. It was pre-ordered back in late August and had the email and SMS messages saying it was to be delivered on the 4th Sept but they won’t release it until today.
They also said in an email the free wireless charger is delayed until next week!
Between 1:30pm and 2:30pm is the estimated time for its arrival.
I ordered the Tab S4 and Galaxy watch, both with Pre order bonuses and both bonuses coming separately and much later than the actual product themselves?! wth why?!
Charging Duo is supposed to be coming on 28th Sept. and my S4 keyboard cover within the “next 30 days” – seriously?! bit ridiculous.
My charging duo was stated in big letters for the 14th in an email but in the small print under that is the 28th.
I suppose I’ll just have to wait patiently and see when it arrives.
Ordered all 3 variants for 2 friends of mine and myself. Both 42mm variants have been delivered, but my 46mm model is out of stock and will come in 3 weeks 🙁 It is going to replace my S3 Frontier because of swimming capabilities and better heart rate monitoring.

Our client were 21st Century Homes for Edinburgh who had a wider programme to provide 1400 mixed tenure homes on the west side of Edinburgh of which approximately 700 were to be in Pennywell. Masterplans and a design guide were prepared for the wider area and the site at Pennywell Road/West Pilton Crescent is one of ten separate sites within them.
Malcom Fraser Architects were given a brief to design a standalone exemplar development for future works, and to provide modern, energy efficient social housing in a range of unit sizes.
The site and neighbourhood were challenging. The ground was contaminated and the site was overshadowed by an adjacent high rise point block to the south-east (Northview Tower). Two schools are located to the east and west and a main road runs along the west boundary of the site.
The design strategy sets the main frontage of the housing along Pennywell Road with small private gardens and public realm landscape. The remainder of the triangular site forms a large common garden area with adjacent ancillary buildings including bike and bin stores and a communal plant room.
One of our key objectives was to improve the public realm link between the primary and secondary schools and set the new housing in high quality private and public open space.
One of the key design considerations has sought to develop the principles the Smithson’s described as “good ordinariness”, referencing the traditional tenement typologies of the New Town of Edinburgh, with a simple language of large repetitive window openings to allow as much daylight into the units as possible. The homes use a limited palette of durable, repairable and recyclable materials. Garden walls, entrance lobbies and pathways use the same brick and this simplicity helps to create a cohesive architectural language across the site and in the design of the public realm.
‘Breathable Wall’ construction used to improve air quality inside the homes by avoiding the use of PVC vapour barrier which keeps air borne moisture zipped up inside the homes.

Prevalence of pre-end-stage renal disease care and associated outcomes among urban, micropolitan, and rural dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND/AIMS - Pre-end-stage renal disease (ESRD) care is associated with improved outcomes among patients receiving dialysis. It is unknown what proportion of US micropolitan and rural dialysis patients receive pre-ESRD care and benefit from such care when compared to urban.
METHODS - A retrospective cohort study was performed using data from the US Renal Data System. Patients ≥18 years old who initiated dialysis in 2006 and 2007 were classified as rural, micropolitan or urban and the prevalence of pre-ESRD care (early nephrology care >6 months, permanent vascular access, -dietary education) was determined using the medical evidence report. The association of pre-ESRD care with dialysis mortality and transplantation was assessed using Cox regression with stratification for geographic residence.
RESULTS - Of 204,463 dialysis patients, 80% were urban, 10.2% were micropolitan and 9.8% were rural. Overall attainment of pre-ESRD care was poor. After adjustment, there were no significant geographic differences in attainment of early nephrology care or permanent dialysis access. Receiving care reduced all-cause mortality and increased the likelihood of transplantation to a similar degree regardless of geographic residence. Both micropolitan and rural patients received less dietary education (relative risk = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.76-0.84 and relative risk = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.80-0.89, respectively).
CONCLUSION - Among patients who receive dialysis, the prevalence of early nephrology care and permanent dialysis access is poor and does not vary by geographic residence. Micropolitan and rural patients receive less dietary education despite an observed mortality benefit, suggesting that barriers may exist to quality dietary care in more remote locations.

Looking for a seafood restaurant in Amsterdam? Then you’ve come to the right place. Here at Hello Amsterdam we make it our business to know the best seafood restaurants in Amsterdam. Whether you are just looking for a quick bite or a full-on seafood delight, we know where you should go. Please scroll through our wide selection of breakfast and lunch restaurants to find the one that fits your needs.
Located in an old industrial warehouse in Amsterdam-Noord, fish restaurant Stork has on one of the most beautiful spots overseeing the water. The outdoor terrace offers a great view of the city center. Lucius seafood restaurant has been in the city for over 38 years. During this time it has always been a very reliable address for the true gourmets who love fish. Whether you’d like a simple piece of grilled fish or you’d choose to be surprised by a fish specialty, the doors of Lucius are wide open! Another fine location for seafood is De Oesterbar. Unsurprisingly this Leidseplein landmark is well known for its perfectly plump oysters (its name means “oyster bar”, after all), and there are eight options to choose from. However, the shrimp croquettes with mustard mayonnaise and deep-fried parsley are enduringly popular too. The North Sea sole, served with oven baked potatoes and salad, is particularly good here, and certainly worth the splurge, but there are plenty of budget friendly options as well (the spaghetti vongole, for instance).
Whatever you are having tonight, we hope you enjoy the wide selection of Seafood restaurants in Amsterdam.

→A Gun Safe Buying Guide for Pistols — Welcome to the Basics!
Safety is an essential element of gun ownership. In fact, the first thing that should be considered when purchasing any gun is safety. Safety is executed in multitudinous modalities. There is safety in handling and transporting, and then there is the safety involved in how the firearm will be stored. The specific firearm in question here is a pistol.
When preparing to buy a gun safe for your pistol, there are a number of things that should be considered. These considerations can become quite complex, based on a number of variables; however, this guide is going to stick to the basics, meaning they can be applied to the purchase of any pistol gun safe.
Every gun safe has at least two purposes. The first purpose is to service the number one concern of every gun owner, to protect their loved ones from accidental shootings. It is vital for every gun owner to know where their firearm is at all times. If it is not on their person, it should be securely locked away in a safe, where minors cannot access it. Accidental shootings are a leading cause of death among minors. Children are curious, and they don’t understand the severity associated with what can be done with that gun. They don’t have an understanding of the concept of finality. So, the first use of the safe is to protect the family from a tragic mistake.
Secondly, the next use for as gun safe is to protect the weapons from theft in case of a burglary. With the volatility of the current economy, home burglaries are on the rise, and guns top the list of the most stolen items during a home burglary. Following guns are prescription medications, alcohol, video equipment and jewelry.
The FBI made the observation that homes with gun safes were basically unaffected during burglaries, with a few portable electronic goods and prescription medications being the only things stolen. This is because the guns, jewelry and other expensive items are stored in the gun safe. Criminals don’t have the time nor the resources to melt through 10 gauge steel with the hopes of finding something worthwhile.
There are seven essentials that should be present with every safe, regardless of style.
A gun safe can be a foot thick; however, if the locking bolts are of a poor quality, the safe is worthless. If a person is going to attempt to circumvent the mechanisms of the safe, the bolts are what they will attack. The bolts are secured into the body of the safe, and they are designed to go deep into the doors of the safe to ensure that the door cannot be pried open. What is important to understand is that the more bolts a safe has, the better. Experts recommend having at least four bolts to consider a safe to be top notch. Besides the number of bolts that a safe has is the coverage, which refers to the number of the sides of the door on which there are bolts. The less expensive safes have all the bolts on one side of the door. There should be at least dual coverage, meaning that there are bolts on at least two sides of the door.
Most gun safes come in a thickness of 12 gauges or lower. Honestly, 12 gauge is too thin. A thief will be able to break into the safe with a blow torch. A good metal gauge for a safe is 10 gauge or lower; however, you have to remember that the thicker the walls and doors of the safe, the more the safe will cost. The value of your gun safe should be up to the task of protecting the value of the content that will be stored in the safe.
This is another one of those elements that can make or break a safe. If the lock is of a poor quality, the safe is useless. There are several elements that a gun safe lock should possess. First and foremost, it should be childproof; however, while being child proof, it should be easily accessible for you to get to in a hurry if necessary. If it takes more than 15 seconds to get the lock open, it is not a good gun safe.
A goof gun safe also has to double as fire protection. Not only does it protect your guns from fire damage, but valuable documents and family heirlooms can be stored in the gun safe as well. A residential fire has the capacity to reach as high as 1,200 degrees F up to 1,400 degrees F. It is important to understand the dynamic of the average house fire, because most gun safes will come with a 30 minute guarantee for 1,200 degrees F; however, this guarantee is more of a sales gimmick that any real true protection. The reason is that the average house fire rages for 20 to 45 minutes, and reaches temperatures up to 1,400 degrees. Find a safe that can handle at least the average house fire.
A common mistake is to assume that because you are buying the safe to store a handgun that the safe should be small; however, you should take into consideration other items to be stored. You should also consider any future gun purchases you may make. The last thing that you want to do is end up having to purchase another safe because you don’t have enough room for additional items.
The safe should be stored strategically, giving consideration to the need for easy access in case of a burglary. The location that is chosen will have some impact on the safe that will be purchased. There is no need for buying a safe with a height of six feet, when the clearance in the location where it will be placed is only five feet.
A gun safe should have a lifetime warranty, and any safe that does not have a lifetime warranty is not a gun safe you want in your home. You want a warranty that covers any defects or necessary repairs to the safe, but you also want a warranty that will replace the contents of the safe should someone successfully circumvent the safe.
Using the points here will assist you in making a problem free gun safe purchase. Sometimes, keeping it simple is the best way to go.

The Royal Court Theatre have announced their new February – August 2019 season, which sees Harry Potter And The Cursed Child writer-director duo Jack Thorne and John Tiffany reunited, as well as an exciting line-up of new writing which includes a play about Kylie Jenner.
Thorne and Tiffany will once again team up for The End Of History… (from Thursday 27 June 2019) in the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs. Set in 1997 Newbury, a socialist family reunion goes awry – after all, when all the kids are named after the parents’ leftist heroes, there’s a lot to live up to. The production features design by Grace Smart, lighting by Jack Knowles and sound by Tom Gibbons.
Seven Methods Of Killing Kylie Jenner (from Thursday 4 July), meanwhile, is written by Jasmine Lee-Jones, and plays in the smaller Jerwood Theatre Upstairs. Directed by Milli Bhatia, the show weighs up the problems behind internet influeners, whose actions don’t always speak louder than their words.
Opening the Downstairs 2019 season is the previously announced return of David Ireland’s Cyprus Avenue. This is followed in the theatre by a series of political events including composer and musician Matthew Herbert’s Big Band & Leavers’ Assembly on Friday 29 and Saturday 30 March 2019; Dismantle This Room, an immersive escape-the-room experience about power structures, playing from April 2019; and Passage: A Windrush Celebration (Saturday 13 April 2019), a day of celebration to celebrate a series of seven monologue films presented by the Royal Court.
The Jerwood Theatre Downstairs then hosts White Pearl (from Friday 10 May), a new play by Anchuli Felicia King, about an international PR nightmare for a company whose draft promotional video goes viral – for all the wrong reasons.
In the more intimate Upstairs theatre, alongside the play about Jenner, will play: Superhoe (from Wednesday 30 January), written by Nicôle Lecky and centring on a young woman who dreams of fame; Inside B**ch (from Wednesday 27 February), a devised ensemble performance which playfully subverts the representation of women in prison; Pah-La (from Wednesday 3 April), an examination of the future of non-violence; and Salt. (from Tuesday 14 May), a journey to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in an examination of the UK’s colonial history.
From May 2019, the Royal Court Theatre will also commit to running a weekly captioned performance on all their shows post-press night, alongside their usual access performances.
