![]() ![]() PS I really, really dislike the lack of a sign out in this app. Just more things to go wrong with no actual advance. Yes the device is an improvement (and is the only reason this isn't a one-star review), but really, it's easier to set the thermostat manually if you are away than it is to do it here. (A page of text would be much better than lots of fun bouncy graphics-we're installing things like thermostats, not playing). As an example of poorly thought-out operation (that is, privileging circuit design over utility) it took me longer to find out which device version it was than to put it on the wall. Using this for an old-style Nest t-stat obtained from my electric utility. Like others say, the app is cumbersome, slow, and awkward. Overall, feels a bit like an acquisition they now regret and will let die. I would put the old t-stat back if I hadn't recycled it. ![]() An advance that is far worse, cumbersome and otherwise difficult to use. Irksome, poorly designed (T-stat use only)Įdited after a season's use. ![]() I regret all the money spent on this worthless system. I even had a google tech help me set that up, thats not safe, anyone who knows what I named the door can simply ask google loudly through my glass window or glass door and it opens anything. I tried everything to have the system recognize only my voice so people couldn’t open my garage or my front door, that does not work. I have 5 nest cams and they connect and disconnect constantly, that problem came after google took over. I am getting board of this I am thinking of going back to apple TV. Google says it doesn’t recognize that device, I reset to factory, start all over and nothing. I got three chrome cast and they were fine at first but after a few weeks voice commands to chrome cast stoped working on all three. I ask for a specific song and it only works on a single speaker, if I am using a group of speakers, google plays what ever it wants. I did a lot of work and is not paying off. Manually the switches work ok, connecting to the TV will only work some times. * Some products and features may not be available in all regions.

Why is this such a difficult issue for what seems to be a simple engineering upgrade. (can the old cell receiver be changed out or upgraded to the newer cell connection modules.) Well the answer I got was a resounding NO!.This was very disappointing considering the outstanding brand and reputation BMW has. ![]() My first question to BMW was, is there a fix to allow connectivity to continue.i.e. This is very upsetting considering my daily commute into the office, now I feel like I'm traveling blind with no advance warning of traffic jams or accidents down the road.

As my RTTI updates have just stopped working as of February 2021 I tried to do some research as to what was going on. Hello BMW family, I wanted to share this post and start a conversation around RTTI. Here, the use of the word putrified is a malapropism, as it seems she was thinking of petrified. “I was most putrified with astonishment,” In Chapter 33 of Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn, Aunt Sally can be spotted using a malapropism. Example #3: Huckleberry Finn (By Mark Twain) Here, the use of lechery” instead of lethargy is a malapropism. SIR TOBY BELCH: “Lechery! I defy lechery.” OLIVIA: “Cousin, cousin, how have you come so early by this The malapropism here is “subtractors,” which should have been “detractors.” Yet another example comes from the same character in Act I, Scene 5 of the same play: “By this hand, they are scoundrels and subtractors Similarly, an instance of malapropism can be observed in Act I, Scene 3 of Twelfth Night. Notice the use of comprehended for apprehended, and auspicious for suspicious. “Our watch, sir, have indeed comprehended two auspicious persons.” Look at the following example of malapropism uttered by Constable Dogberry in Act III, Scene 5 of Much Ado About Nothing: Her name became the default term for misusing a word. Malaprop did, in fact, use words incorrectly as a funny quirk of her character. Malaprop, from The Rivals, a 1775 five-act comedy by Richard Brinsley Sheridan. ![]() William Shakespeare uses malapropism in his plays as well. Our tier list of the All Star Tower Defense characters covers all the units in the game, ranked from worst to best, so you have an idea of who you should focus on using during games. The term malapropism itself actually comes from a character called Mrs. Some other funny examples of malapropism in the same play include “… illiterate (obliterate) him quite from your memory,” and “… she’s as headstrong as an Allegory (alligator).” Example #2: Much Ado About Nothing (By William Shakespeare) ![]() In the above passage, she comically replaces apprehend with reprehend, Vernacular with oracular, arrangement with derangement, and Epithets with Epitaph. “Sure, if I reprehend anything in this world it is the use of my oracular tongue, and a nice derangement of epitaphs!” For example, in Act III, Scene 3, she tells Captain Absolute: It becomes a great source of humorous effect in the play. ![]() Malaprop, who habitually uses words that mean quite the opposite to the words she intends to use, but which have similar sounds to the words she replaces.

Thanks so much for checking out my post.Halloween mystery boxes are the best way to get you spooked for this fun holiday. Mystery boxes are a great idea for fun at home or in the classroom. The kids will need to wash their hands after they touch the pickles or anything else you decide to put in the mystery boxes. The kids had such a blast with the mystery boxes! The anticipation of reaching into something and having no idea what is inside, makes kids really excited.Ī quick note: if you are setting this up in a classroom, it is always a good idea to be near a sink. When the kids circle all the numbers on their paper you can tell them if they are right. Just make sure to write down somewhere which number is what, for example, Monster teeth is hole number 3. Once the food is in the containers and all lined up, simply set your box overtop.

The idea is for the kids to guess what they are feeling each time they reach in. Lastly, I added numbers above each hole! The numbers coordinate with a sheet you will need to print off. In order to keep the kids from looking into the holes, but allow them to still reach in, I cut X’s into the fabric. It didn’t go on very well…but at the end of the day it accomplished what I needed. Again it was from the dollar store and honestly next time I might use a nicer tape. Next I used purple duct tape to tape the felt down and to cover all the edges.

Well, I need to make a decision this weekend as I am at a point where I can't go much further without completing the dado cuts. I have a Festool CT26 I can connect it to. Kind of hard to explain but it is remarkable how well it worked using the 1/2" in technique, and it works so well because of a piece that probably costs about $2 to manufacture that basically encases the base/vac port/work piece. I need opinions on the Dewalt DW618 router dust collection abilities. If you try cutting the dado by starting the router off the work piece and then go right into the board then some of the dust escapes through the dado you just cut. DEWALT PERFORM & PROTECT tools defend against dust inhalation, loss of torque control, and lessen tool vibration without sacrificing the performance you demand. If you plunge the router into the work piece about 1/2" from the edge the vacuum gets virtually everything, and then move the router forward to do 98% of the dado, coming back for that last 1/2" at the end. DEWALT Router, Fixed and Plunge Base Kit, Soft Start, 12-Amp, 24,000 RPM, Variable Speed Trigger, Corded (DW618PKB) - Vacuum And Dust Collector Accessories. With regards to the comment about Festool being no better - I checked out the router at my local Woodcraft and found the dust collection to be excellent when used with the guide rail. ![]() Dewalt DWK611 has dust collection accessories available, part DNP615 and. ![]() Bosch offers an aftermarket dust hood for their routers but it doesnt seem like anyone is offering a router with a dust port. That guide rail when used properly makes everything much more stable, repeatable and accurate. What is out there for decent dust collection from a handheld router I cant imagine myself dropping the money for a festool anytime soon. Taming the router is not that difficult with the Festool guide rail and router guide. I havent had enough opportunity to use the edge guides (DNP618 for the fixed base, DW6913 for the plunge base) to give them a fair review, but I have had enough use of the dust collection. If I could find a "new-old stock" model that I knew was 5+ years old I would probably go that route. DeWalt offers four accessories for the DWP611PK edge guides for both the fixed base and plunge base, as well as dust collection adapters for both. ![]() Highly recommend' 12' DeWalt 718/779/780/782 Sliding Miter Saw Dust Collection, Complete Kit Chris C.

Investments in medical oxygen now will not only reduce the death toll from the pandemic, but will enable countries to keep saving the lives of many other patients, from newborns in respiratory distress to children with pneumonia women in child birth elderly adults with chronic conditions and patients needing surgery. Now all parties must rally to execute so that history does not repeat itself,” Greenslade and Iyer said. “The new agreements provide the strategic framework we have been waiting for. They have co-hosted three Access to Medical Oxygen Roundtables ( 25 September 2020, 9 December 2020 and 9 June 2021) which culminated in a call for a strategic framework with time-bound execution to respond to the current pandemic and be better prepared for the next one. The Every Breath Counts Coalition and Access to Medicine Foundation have consistently called for greater collaboration with the oxygen industry during the pandemic. ![]() With G7 leaders signaling more support for the ACT-A partners working on oxygen, and by calling on the World Bank and other Multilateral Development Banks to act with greater speed on COVID-19 treatments, we are confident that lack of public sector financing is no longer a rate-limiting factor for effective public- private partnerships. ![]() Since the taskforce was established in February 2021, $US4 billion has been mobilized to meet LMIC oxygen and other diagnostic and treatment needs, subject to government demand and available oxygen supply.* The annual cost of meeting this level of need is estimated at $US3 billion. The pandemic has driven LMIC need for medical oxygen to 15 million cubic meters per day, the equivalent of two million large cylinders. They are also urging other industry leaders – liquid gas as well as plant and concentrator manufacturers – to join the global effort to strengthen LMIC health systems by increasing access to medical oxygen. We hope this announcement will encourage more companies to help bridge the remaining gaps,” said Jayasree Iyer, Executive Director of the Access to Medicine Foundation.īoth organizations are calling on LMICs governments with urgent oxygen needs to work with the taskforce and the companies to secure liquid supplies, prepare hospitals, and train staff to use the new equipment effectively and safely in record time. It is encouraging to see Air Liquide and Linde respond to our early calls for action to bring oxygen to more patients in LMICs. “We applaud these new commitments and the substantial progress on the creation of a coordinated framework. “With hospitals in several African countries now reporting oxygen shortages and related deaths, it is a matter of urgency that these new liquid oxygen agreements are translated into real action on the ground,” she added. “If we don’t move fast we could see deaths at the scale we saw back in late April – when more than 15,000 people died every day, mainly in Asian and Latin American countries,” warned Leith Greenslade, Coordinator of the Every Breath Counts Coalition. The new agreements with manufacturers have the potential to unlock supplies of liquid oxygen for LMICs and fast-track delivery to countries in crisis, or on the verge, preventing another wave of oxygen-related deaths. Negotiated under the umbrella of the Access to COVID-19 Tools Accelerator (ACT-A) Oxygen Emergency Taskforce, the landmark agreements commit the world’s two largest liquid oxygen suppliers – Air Liquide and Linde – to an unprecedented level of collaboration with taskforce members to help LMICs governments meet their rising needs for oxygen to treat the surge in COVID-19 patients. The Every Breath Counts Coalition and the Access to Medicine Foundation welcomed the announcement by Unitaid and the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) of the first-ever agreements with the liquid oxygen industry to help low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) avoid the tragedy of further COVID-19 deaths from lack of access to oxygen. |
