I have no words to express my sympathy for the pain that my ass has been through. Rather than installing and using Apple’s new operating system, I would prefer to see and use the existing one. Gheese, who is scheduled to be released with a new upcoming OS 10.7, will most likely have to wait until the new version is available. You can also see if they still have their free Mac software that allows you to print to various card stock options like those on their pre-perfered cards. If Pages continues to refuse, try AppleWorks 6.1.9, which is capable of printing to a wide range of Avery card stock and includes a variety of templates. It would be simple for me to create the card, trim it to size, put it on the desktop, and then drag it into Pages format. It would appear there is only one command that can be used to duplicate a business card design for each of the other positions.

![]() Therefore, assuming that the two new staff will receive the increased pay levels, his budget for staff will be $1.638m When the budget is being prepared for the next year, the head teacher thinks that he will need to employ two new members of staff to teach languages, who will be paid a salary of $30,000 each (before any pay rises) and also, that he will need to give all staff members a pay increase of 5%. Let's say that in one particular year, staff salaries were $1.5m. The current year's budget or actual performance is a starting point only.Ī school will have a sizeable amount in its budget for staff salaries. Of course it does by definition, an 'increment' is an increase of some kind. It is a common misapprehension of students that one of the biggest disadvantages of incremental budgeting is that it doesn't allow for inflation. These incremental amounts will include adjustments for things such as inflation, or planned increases in sales prices and costs. Incremental budgeting is the traditional budgeting method whereby the budget is prepared by taking the current period's budget or actual performance as a base, with incremental amounts then being added for the new budget period. ![]() Both of these have been used in both public sector and private sector organisations, with varying degrees of success. The purpose of this article is to critically evaluate the two main methods for preparing budgets - the incremental approach and the zero-based approach. Therefore, budgeting naturally focuses on inputs alone, rather than the relationship between inputs and outputs. What is easier to compare is the relationship between how much cash is available for a particular area and how much cash is actually needed. In a hospital, on the other hand, it is difficult to define a quantifiable relationship between inputs and outputs. There is a direct relationship between the expenditure that needs to be input in order to achieve the desired level of output. In a private company the output can be measured in terms of sales revenue, for example. ![]() Just as objectives are difficult to define quantifiably, so too are the organisation's outputs. This leads onto the next reason why budgeting is particularly difficult in the public sector. This is difficult to define in a quantifiable way, and how it is actually achieved is even more difficult to define. If, on the other hand, you are budgeting for a public sector organisation such as a hospital, then the objectives may be largely qualitative, such as ensuring that all outpatients are given an appointment within eight weeks of being referred to the hospital. The meeting of this objective can then be set out in the budget by aiming for a percentage increase in sales and perhaps the cutting of various costs. For example, a private company's objectives may be to maximise profit. In the public sector, the budgeting process can be even more difficult, since the objectives of the organisation are more difficult to define in a quantifiable way than the objectives of a private company. It is often an arduous process, however, and often strikes dread in the hearts of those involved in budget preparation. The budgeting process is an essential component of management control systems, as it provides a system of planning, coordination and control for management.
![]() be able to justify their selection in the commentary booth? When do you think Joe will make his return? Leave your thoughts in the comments below. What did you make of Rogan’s prediction and thoughts for the fight? Will Jon Anik and Co. Even though he won’t be present for this fight card, there is no doubt that Rogan will be back in the commentator’s chair once the other cards this year come around. Thus, it appears that Rogan is clearly favoring Islam in the matchup and will definitely be tuning in for the fight. The only area of concern for Islam was supposedly his striking, which he has since improved as well. In addition to that, his wrestling, grappling, and raw strength is a big challenge for any lightweight, let alone featherweight like Volkanovski. For one, Rogan feels that Islam is a really big lightweight. Speaking on The Joe Rogan Experience, with Sean O’Malley, Rogan was very keen to share his thoughts on the headline fight.Īccording to Joe, he believes that Volkanovski will have a lot of trouble trying to contend with Islam. Coming back to Rogan, who, despite not being a part of UFC 284, is still very excited for the showdown that’s about to happen. A familiar voice will be missing from the commentary booth for UFC 265 on Saturday night. ![]() As such, it is safe to assume that the veteran UFC commentator is likely missing the event due to his busy schedule involving podcasting, standup commentary, and other obligations.Ĭurrently, the reason for former champ-champ Daniel ‘DC’ Cormier’s absence is unknown and surprising considering his friendship with Islam Makhachev. ![]() ![]() Why is Joe Rogan missing from UFC 284?Īs mentioned previously, Joe Rogan, who has missed a number of events outside North America, along with Daniel Cormier, will not be part of the commentary team for UFC 284. Lastly, longtime UFC correspondent John Gooden will be in charge of the pre and post-fight interviews with the fighters backstage and provide additional updates throughout the event. Joining the roster, we will see # 5 ranked light heavyweight Anthony Smith, and #5 ranked lightweight Michael Chandler along with Laura Sanko joining the show as analysts. Rodgers recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience brought back his immunization comments from last season. Dominick Cruz talks about his injury streak, and how he overcame the mental anguish of not being able to compete. Other than that we also have Brendan Fitzgerald, who will serve as the host for the post-fight show. Notably, this is the first time Jon Anik, Dominick Cruz, and Michael Bisping will be calling a PPV event together. Re watch the fight with the commentary and tell us what you think? As always we respect your opinion to agree or disagree so hit us up on social media and the comments section below.A post shared by UFC for the commentary desk, we will see Jon Anik make his return alongside former two-time UFC champion Dominick Cruz and UFC Hall of Famer and former middleweight champ, Michael Bisping. It’s obvious who the UFC wanted to win this fight as I guess Dillashaw isn’t “marketable” enough and economical seems to be the direction UFC is going these days. I remember thinking, “Yeah that’s great, but TJ’s hitting him right now, what about that?”. Even as TJ Dillashaw was hitting Dominick Cruz Rogan was talking about Dominick’s footwork. The commentating was definitely bias as I remember thinking the same thing as I was watching the fight. To be a 1000% honest with you guys I agree with everything he said. In a recent Instagram post, TJ Dillashaw expressed his opinion on the fight after much reflection and apparently some sleepless nights. Taking over for the podcasting giant is former UFC bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz, who will help call the combat sports action alongside veteran play-by-play man Jon Anik and retired UFC. Joe Rogan and Dominick Cruz blast UFC 247. Dominick Cruz took shots at colleague and fellow analyst Kenny Florian – TJ damn near had a heart attack when the decision was rendered, so it’s safe to say that the hatchets were all but buried. Joe Rogan and Dominick Cruz blast UFC 247 judge for not looking at fight. He asked the lot if they remembered the time a troll dared to challenge Cruz, only to regret it in the end. Because of story surrounding the fight, as well as the controversial decision, emotions were running high on both sides. Joe Rogan recalls the Dominick Cruz incident with a troll After Bryan Callen sang praises of Dominick Cruz, talking about how he’s always ready to rumble, Joe Rogan chipped in. In the main event comeback kid Dominick Cruz squeaked out a 5 round victory against then current champ TJ Dillashaw. ![]() Start the tour, and give Vidal a look at the grape crushing machine. Insert the fuse cell in a nearby junction box and then subdue the chief winemaker so that you can disguise yourself as him. Distract the worker near the grape pressing machine so that you can tamper with the wiring on the floor, then sabotage the pumps with the wrench so that the room is flooded with wine. ![]() In the wine factory, grab a screwdriver, a wrench, and a fuse cell. This works best if Black is not in your party, and involves some preparation before you start the tour. The last stop on 47's vineyard tour is a chance to assassinate Vidal via electrocution. Black will also be caught in the assassination, which results in two potential problems being eliminated as part of the Coldhearted challenge. Make certain that you have a screwdriver equipped, and when Vidal stands inside the freezing unit you can trap her, thereby tampering with the locking mechanism outside of it. Coldheartedįor a colder approach, carry out the tour as normal but make a stop by the freezer on your way. One quick shove is all it takes, and she'll join the Yates estate as a grisly new wine vintage, completing the Pulp Friction challenge. Lead the group over to the grape crushers, and Vidal will lean over to take a look. You'll have several opportunities to take care of Vidal, which includes using an industrial grape-pressing machine that ends with a gruesome demise. Once disguised, you'll be able to lead the group on an informative tour. ![]() When he sends his assistant off to pluck three grapes from the harvest, distract him over to a secluded spot by running a nearby water pump machine. You're able to disguise yourself as either Black or the chief winemaker, with the head of the vineyard's disguise being particularly useful in this mission story. Vidal, Burnwood, and Yates' fixer Corvo Black are scheduled to take a tour of the vineyard, which leads to a perfect opportunity for some mayhem. Or, to complete the Hold My Hair challenge, you can use an emetic poison instead and follow Vidal when she retreats to the bathroom. Poison her glass with a lethal toxin to complete the Notes of Hemlock and Tasteless, Traceless challenges when you serve her favorite drink to her. A bottle of Pinotcan be found in the storeroom to the right side of the bar, and once you have it, you can wait for Vidal to appear. While she's on her rounds with Burnwood, disguise yourself as a waiter and make your way down to the bar area on the ground floor. Tamara Vidal only has one type of wine that she cares for, and it happens to be a rare bottle of Pinot.

You upload an image, we print and frame it, and you receive a high-quality ready-to-hang frame in the mail at an unbeatable price. We built our website to provide the simplest and best framing experience possible. You may notice that our website won't let you print a photo larger than a certain size - this is to avoid printing something of very low quality. However, when you print a photo out and hold it at arm's length, your eyes can discern up to 300 dots per inch. That's because most screens cannot display more than 72 dots per inch. Usually, photos found online are not nearly as detailed as photos that are intended to be printed on paper.

Think about stretching a standard 4" by 6" photo to fit a billboard - it will look great from a couple hundred feet away but will look very blurry up close.

When you upload this photo to our website, we will always print it at the highest possible dots per inch for the size that you select. It is not possible to add detail to a photo after it is taken - for example, there is nothing that can be done to a photo taken by an older cell phone camera to make it look like a picture taken by professional photography equipment. When you take a photo, your camera saves it at a certain level of detail which depends on the quality of the camera. The greater this number, the more detail we can see in a printed photo. Dots per inch (or "DPI" for short) refers to the number of dots a printer puts down in a one-inch line. For example, Apple Wallet is also called Passbook.

However, today there is more technology involved than in the past. If the idea of visiting a bank branch in person and recording your details by hand is appealing, you can still find institutions offering passbook savings accounts. Bank customers would use a cheque book and passbook to balance their accounts. Any loan-related details would go here as well including the mode of payment.Įssentially, passbooks hearken back to a pre-internet form of banking when you’d need to meticulously keep paper-based records in the absence of computers and SMS alerts. Similarly for credit transactions, you’d use your passbook to keep track of deposit interest, receipts from third parties, and cash deposits. You’d also record all direct debit and pay order information, as well as details about self-payments to other accounts. How does a passbook work?Ī bank passbook is simply a physical log of your transactions, but what type of information should be recorded?įor debit transactions, you’d include all details about payments including payee name, method of payment, and name of the bank making a transfer. For example, a passbook savings account comes both with a physical notebook to record transactions, as well as competitive interest rates.

It records on paper the details of all banking transactions, including elements such as: What is a passbook?Ī bank passbook is a physical notebook held by bank account holders.

Usagi goes up against bandits, ghosts, and assassins, all while wandering feudal Japan, looking for peace. The stories themselves draw from Japanese history, folklore, and cinema. His style reminds me of Moebius in some ways and of Miyazaki in others, minimalist yet simultaneously intricate. ![]() It's amazing how much emotion he's able to convey with so little. Stan Sakai uses clean lines and great composition to put his stories together. The straight-forward, minimalist style grabbed my attention right away. The first story was a little rocky, a team-up with the Ninja Turtles to save a rat. ![]() Did I mention all the characters are animals? The violence is tame and there's no blood. I have no idea why I enjoyed this as much as I did. I was vaguely aware there was a Usagi Yojimbo comic but I didn't imagine the rabbit could carry his own book. I first encountered Usagi on an episode of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon where he was yanked from his own time period and teamed up with the aforementioned turtles. He's also a rabbit in a world of anthropomorphic animals. Miyamoto Usagi is a ronin, a masterless samurai, wandering feudal Japan in search of peace. ![]() His favorite movie is Satomi Hakkenden (1959). He also made a futuristic spin-off series Space Usagi. First published in 1984, the comic continues to this day, with Sakai as the lone author and nearly-sole artist (Tom Luth serves as the main colorist on the series, and Sergio Aragonés has made two small contributions to the series: the story "Broken Ritual" is based on an idea by Aragonés, and he served as a guest inker for the black and white version of the story "Return to Adachi Plain" that is featured in the Volume 11 trade paper-back edition of Usagi Yojimbo). He began his career by lettering comic books (notably Groo the Wanderer by Sergio Aragonés and Mark Evanier) and became famous with the production of Usagi Yojimbo, the epic saga of Miyamoto Usagi, a samurai rabbit living in late-sixteenth and early-seventeenth-century Japan. He and his wife, Sharon, presently reside and work in Pasadena. He later attended the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.

While this shade is more expensive than our other picks, the quality of its materials-from the aluminum poles usually reserved for high-end camping tents to the parachute fabric-all but ensure that this shade will be around for many more summers than your typical beach umbrella or tent. On most days, though, with a gentle onshore breeze, sitting under the Shibumi Shade is like lying under a crisp sheet hanging on a clothesline in the summer sun. (If you don’t need quite as much coverage, the similarly constructed Shibumi Shade Mini is designed for one person or a couple.) High winds produce more noise than one might expect. ![]() We tested the Shibumi Shade in everything from barely perceptible ocean breezes to stiff 25 mph winds, and it worked admirably, providing about 15 by 10 feet of shade-enough for six adults-when the sun was high. One person can set it up in a minute or two. The shade has three components: a long arc of high-strength aluminum tubing (it folds up like a tent pole), a roughly 16-by-8-foot rectangle of parachute fabric, and a sand anchor, which doubles as the shade’s carrying case. Instead of resisting the wind, the Shibumi Shade’s wonderfully simple design puts it to work-which makes sense, considering that the shade was conceived on the blustery beaches of North Carolina’s Outer Banks. If your favorite beach features steady offshore breezes-or even umbrella-tumbling gusts-the Shibumi Shade is a natural choice. That said, the Sun Ninja Tent’s stretched-out design unavoidably occupies quite a bit of beach in relation to the 7-by-7-foot piece of shade it creates, which other folks might not appreciate if you frequent crowded beaches. Sitting under the tent feels almost bedouin in nature, an experience in nomadic self-contentment. (The company also offers an eight-person model for even more space.) In low and moderate winds, the flexibility of the Sun Ninja shade allows it to shake off most gusts up to 15 mph without falling over. The whole process can take one or two people less than three minutes, once they know what they’re doing.Įrected, the Sun Ninja Tent provides plenty of shade for four people to comfortably lie down in. The spandex canopy is dead simple to set up: Stretch the four arms of the fabric out across the beach, fill the large pouch at the end of each arm with plenty of sand, and then place the four collapsible aluminum rods under the canopy, raising and angling them into the top corners of the tent until you find the best balance of tensions. Remarkably consistent in a variety of wind conditions, the Sun Ninja Tent 4 Person is pleasant to sit under-no matter how strong the sun-and packs away into a small carrying case that’s easy to throw over your shoulder (it weighs just over 7 pounds). Also, we plan to retest some traditional stand-up umbrellas that are suitable for beaches with even stricter rules. In case the beaches you visit have such rules, we’ve included in this guide two smaller tent-like options, as well as an umbrella we’ve recommended in the past. Canopies and tents do take up a larger footprint on already crowded beaches-especially if they’re used inconsiderately or irresponsibly. Maybe it’s something we should have seen coming. ![]() Recently, counties in New Jersey and New York State, among others, have banned this kind of tent and shade. While the Shibumi model maximizes your shade without intruding on close neighbors, it requires a steady coastal wind to function-and it costs more. The Sun Ninja shade requires plenty of beach space but tolerates variable wind conditions. Of the seven shades we tested, our two favorites, the Sun Ninja Tent 4 Person and the Shibumi Shade, meet those demands but suit different circumstances. It should be easy to carry and intuitive to set up, and it should remain sturdy in the wind without collapsing. On top of that, even if your umbrella does remain stationary, you spend most of your day chasing the meager, postage-stamp-sized patch of shade it provides as if you’re some deranged sundial.Ī good sunshade provides consistent protection from the sun over a large area while maintaining a comfortable amount of headroom. I’m sure I’m not the only beachgoer who has witnessed umbrellas uprooting and tumbling into sunbathing neighbors despite all efforts. One of my earliest beach memories is the sight of my father chasing a large, colorful umbrella down the sands on a particularly windy day on the Maine coast. |
