I think someone was in my room but I don't remember." We tried to play it off and go along with it but after about 15 seconds we both cracked up laughing. Shut it off and go back to bed." The following day he came up to us and said, "I had a really screwy dream last night. Your phone's been going off for two hours. ![]() Then he jumped into the corner like Spiderman and shouted, "WHAT?!!!!!! WHOOOOOOO?!!!!!" Then he leaned forward ever so slightly and mumbled, ".hel.hello?" My other roommate then said, "Hey asshole. My roommate crouched at the foot of his bed and began shaking the bedframe.Īfter about 30 seconds of this, he sat bolt upright in bed with a gasp, took one look at me, and threw a punch that hit thin air. I stood over him and with the blanket, I looked like a vaguely human shape. We shutoff the lights outside the room, and snuck in with dark blankets over our heads. We always played a lot of pranks on each other so my other roommate and I decided to get creative. We finally got irritated enough to do something about it. He was dead to the world and didn't hear a thing. My roommate had a text come in on his little flip phone while he was sleeping and the alert kept going off every two minutes for hours. So do what you will with that information, I just shared an LPT, if it causes stress between your roommates and yourself, probably you have other things to sort out.īack in the early 2000s, cell phones kept alerting you to text messages and voicemail until you shutoff the alert. We both know it and really don’t mind it.Īlso, the snoozing part, I don’t know if it snoozes or cancels (because i am asleep and never bothered to experiment) but its enough time for her to exit the bathroom and take care of it or leave the house. I obviously don’t want to get up from the bed at 7am in the morning and turn it off so I just ring it using my phone beside me. She doesn’t take her phone in and it keeps ringing maybe on the kitchen countertop. It is mostly used by me when my gf who sets 10 alarms, gets up on the second and rushes to the washroom and does not cancel the rest of them. Like I said I have never once used this LPT to cause stress to someone. Use at own risk, I am not responsible for angry roomies or partners if they don’t wake up.ĮDIT: holy freak, this blew up. If a phone alarm is ringing your in your house and you want to shut it without getting up from bed, just ring that phone’s number. ![]() Note: Bans will not be reversed if the post/comment in question has been deleted from your history.

![]() "We are aligned on several key issues," she said in April. UPS CEO Carol Tome has been predicting a deal will be reached without a strike. Both sides have too much to lose in a lengthy dispute. Logistics experts generally believe a prolonged strike with damaging implications to businesses and the economy will be averted. And then you get behind." Deal may be likely "That's when things really start to get bottlenecked. "If you get outside of three days, then you start going into the danger zone" in remote areas, he said. "Big retailers have contingency plans in place," said John Haber, the chief strategy officer at third-party logistics provider Transportation Insight Holding Company, who worked for more than a decade in UPS' corporate finance office.īusinesses and customers in rural areas would also be most affected by a longer strike. Small and medium-sized businesses lower in the pecking order than big-box chains would see the most delays from a lengthy strike, logistics experts say. Overall, UPS handled 18.7 million domestic packages a day on average in the first three months of this year. And its share of shipments is even greater than that number indicates, since many of the packages being delivered by the US Postal Service are moved by UPS. UPS delivers about a quarter of all US packages to their final destination, according to Pitney Bowes, a global shipping and logistics firm, and there is not enough capacity in the market to replace UPS. "From an economic perspective, we're going to have a very muted peak season."īusinesses have also had time to prepare for the possibility of a strike.įedEx and other carriers have encouraged shippers for months to switch away from UPS to avoid any delays from a strike. ![]() "If you look at the overall market, nobody is seeing a pickup anymore," Roberson said. UPS' revenue fell 6% in the first quarter compared to a year earlier and it said in April that it expects "volume to remain under pressure." In a worst-case scenario, a longer-term UPS strike could cause major disruptions to the US supply chain network. However, if the strike lasts longer than a week, there will be some empty shelves, higher prices, and slower package deliveries for customers, they say. How bad could it get? Logistics experts predict that a short UPS strike would not be as devastating as it was in 1997 because things have changed in the intervening quarter-century: There are more shipping alternatives, for example. The work stoppage would also kick off as shoppers head into the back-to-school season and retailers prepare for the peak holiday stretch later in the year. ![]() If a strike takes place, it would be the largest single-employer strike in US history. ![]() Now, more than 340,000 UPS workers represented by the Teamsters union are threatening to strike over pay, hours and working conditions if there is no agreement in contract talks between the company and the union. The 15-day strike slashed package deliveries, overwhelmed the US Postal Service and FedEx, and hurt businesses across the United States. ![]() A UPS strike by 185,000 workers 25 years ago brought the logistics giant's operations to a standstill. ![]() ![]() ![]() Wrapped or unwrapped, attach one of these special delivery gift tags straight from The North Pole Express Delivery Service! Aren’t they so much fun? I love adding the little personal touches to bring a little bit more of Christmas Magic.Īnd…it is a fun way for the older children in our family who are “wise in the ways of Santa Claus” to get involved with the Christmas Magic. This year, they are each going to come with special santa gift tag printables from Santa Claus. ![]() Then we all go to the Christmas Tree where Santa has left one present for each kid…. It used to be REALLY early in the morning when the kids were younger…now it seems to be later…or when the girls can manage to get their teenage brothers out of their beds. The next morning we all gather in Mom and Dad’s bedroom until we are ready to head downstairs together. Then we leave out some Cookies For Santa and scatter the Reindeer Food for his Reindeer on the front lawn. We open these gifts after we read our Christmas Book and we read the Christmas Story out of the Scriptures. If it is in the budget for the year…and the kids need new Pajamas, they will get to open a new pair of pajamas too. Then when I got married, they gifted my husband and I, all of my ornaments so that we could use them to start our own Christmas Tree). (My parents did this when we were growing up. Sometimes is can also be something that represents a hobby or something they enjoy. Each child is given an ornament that represents something they did or accomplished that year. On Christmas Eve we open our Christmas Ornaments. But…isn’t that what life is all about? Compromise? So…we came up with our own family Christmas traditions by blending some of each of them…something that would work for how we wanted our family traditions to be. Very different from what I had grown accustomed to. My husband’s family opened their gifts on Christmas Eve and Santa would leave their stockings filled with some wrapped gifts for them to open on Christmas Day. When I got married, I realized Santa didn’t always have the same tradition at every house he visited. So we immediately knew where to look when we were allowed to come into the room on Christmas morning. It was always unwrapped and left in the same spot every year…for my siblings and I. It was usually one big gift that was our “want” item. When I was growing up, Santa Claus always left one gift for each kid. When Santa leaves presents at your house, does he wrap them in special wrapping paper? Does he attach santa gift tag printables so the kids know who the gift is from? Or are the gifts left out under the Christmas Tree unwrapped? these Santa gift tag Printables are straight from The North Pole Express Delivery Service! Simply download and attach. I am excited to be sharing a personalized christmas gift wrap idea. ![]() ![]() ![]() IOTA Price Prediction 2021īefore we continue to analyze the technical aspects of the IOTA project and its coin historical price performance, it’s best to first find out what’s the prediction for IOTA price for 2021 and beyond. We’ll also help you get the necessary information to determine whether it is the right time to buy or short sell IOTA and suggest the best online trading platforms that support IOTA coin. So, in this IOTA price prediction, we’ll take a closer at IOTA price history performance and include IOTA forecast for 2021 and beyond. But, as we already know, the crypto market is another story, and IOTA dropped around 65% due to the crypto mini-crash that started in May.Still, IOTA has the potential to rise again in value in the short and long term. The coin of IOTA, which is known as one of the most effective projects in the cryptocurrency market, was trading in April at $2.54, nearly 800% return from the start of the year. And all of that likely within the next few days.Since the beginning of the year, IOTA has been rising and falling along with other popular cryptocurrencies and the crypto market in general. If BTC chills, we should see IOTA bouncing back up from all these converging support and trend lines, conquer 50 cents while simultaneously breaking out from a 6 month downtrend against BTC and - by doing so - enter into the long awaited bull market. We must hope it can hold 34k for the next few hours and go back to trade above 35k. Right now, BTC is indeed in a critical situation. One thing that could put a stop to this is BTC taking a dump. These are perfect conditions for the retest to succeed. In other words, the stars are magically aligning for IOTA. If you check out both charts, you will also see that these support lines are right now crossing with rising trend lines. We have support at both 45ct and 1300 satoshis. Right now there is something interesting happening, an incredible confluence of four different support or trend lines, against USD and BTC. Well, you might wonder, who cares?Ī successful retest of the huge resistance we had at 45ct for two years, would establish it as new support, turning it into the springboard for a massive bull run. Since then we have, as you would expect, bounced from 50ct and are now retesting 45ct. ![]() By now you know that that's exactly what happened. With next resistance to be expected at 50ct. In the second post I told you that we are now in the transition phase. In the first one, right before the massive run we have seen, I predicted that we finally leave 2 years of accumulation to see 45ct in the near future.

Further, unlike blockchain architecture, IOTA has no separation between users and validators (miners / stakers) rather, validation is an intrinsic property of using the ledger, thus avoiding centralization. Scaling limitations have been removed, since throughput grows in conjunction with activity the more activity, the more transactions can be processed & the faster the network.

White has never written a television script but was sure he could learn when the opportunity was given. White gave Leach some of his work from Chuck E. Leach quickly got back in touch, eager for White to come in for an interview. White sent another letter to Leach to remind her of his availability and one of congratulations. After seeing the ad, White assumed that the project was continuing without him. White then saw a newspaper article that Barney & The Backyard Gang was to be spun into a television series on PBS. White never heard anything back afterwards. White became interested in the video series and wrote to Sheryl Leach pitching himself that he would like to work with the crew. Upon asking West what he's been up to since they last saw each other, White learned that West was voicing Barney for the Barney & The Backyard Gang video series. One of the people White worked with during audio sessions was Bob West. The productions he wrote and co-produced would be used for audio production for the animatronic characters in Chuck E.
