You will also gain automatic access to Magical Academy, where you can meet other members of the community, learn about how they use Magical to work smarter, and gain early access to new features.There is, however, an excellent text expansion tool that runs right in Chrome and works on any system where is Chrome is installed - including, yes oh yes, a Chromebook. Here, you can try out common templates or import some of your own text expander snippets. As soon as you start using Magical, you will be taken through our user-friendly onboarding tutorial. And since we’re also privacy nerds, Magical does not collect or store your keystrokes. In case you need help remembering your template triggers, Magical also has built-in search. In addition to the core functionality of keyboard triggers, Magical lets you share and tag templates with teammates. ![]() We’re productivity nerds, and have put a lot of thought into what makes the best text expander. As for pricing, Magical is available for free. ![]() This means that, unlike other text expanders, Magical is not limited to Windows, Mac, Android, or iOS. Whether you need a text expander for personal use or for work, Magical offers a free text expander as a Google Chrome extension. Given how versatile text expanders are, the possibilities are endless. Web developers even use text expanders to save time when typing out repetitive HTML or CSS code. Many people also save time with text expanders by setting up autocomplete features or creating new snippets for custom auto correct entries. Common use cases for text expanders include customer support macros, recruiting messages, sales outreach, and any workflow that uses email templates. In addition to saving time when writing emails, typing notes, or entering data, a text expander also allows you to reduce errors (no more typos!) and share snippets with colleagues. By using a text expander for automation, you can save hundreds of hours of work each year. Over time, typing each of these items adds up. If you are typing on an iPad, iPhone, or other mobile device, it may take even longer. ![]() It might take a few minutes to type out complex items, like a customer support macro, other boilerplate email templates, or formatted text. It might take a few seconds to type out simple items, like your company address, the current date, or phone numbers. Each week, we type thousands of words and phrases. Or they might be complex, like a customer support macro or sales outreach. These items might be simple, like your name, email address, common phrases, company address, or email signatures. In fact, you probably spend a lot of time typing the same things over and over, or copying and pasting the same text to and from different windows. If you are one of us mere mortals, odds are that you spend a fair amount of time behind a screen, which means you probably type a lot. And as the way we work becomes increasingly digital, text expanders are poised to become your secret weapon for productivity. In short: a text expander creates templates that help you get through your most boring tasks in a fraction of the time. And though this set of snippets might save you a few minutes each day, those few minutes quickly add up to hours over the course of a year. From there, you could edit this email template to tailor the messaging to your prospect’s needs. Instead of typing a completely new message each time you need to send out an email, you could use a short abbreviation like to instantly insert the prospect’s first name, and to pull in a proven email message template. ![]() For example, let’s say you work in sales and want to send out a number of form letters, like outreach emails. By typing in a custom abbreviation, a text expander quickly inserts snippets of text, such as words, emojis, phrases, paragraphs, blocks of code, or templates. A text expander is an application that replaces repetitive typing tasks with a few keystrokes. ![]()

Turtles is a regular here, a fixture on Wednesday nights when Blairally hosts Pinball Knights, its weekly double-elimination pinball tournament. Wearing a beard and T-shirt that reads “I’m kind of a big deal,” Turtles’ focus is locked on the dazzling array of lights glowing from a 40-year-old pinball machine called “Wizard!” Two Turtles releases the spring-loaded plunger, and a small steel ball rockets up the chute and begins its arcing trajectory across the candy-colored table. ![]() ![]() ![]() Overlooking Paradise from Panorama Point on the Skyline Trail.

I bet you wouldn't think they were so cute after sitting down for an explosive moment at the toilet… As for me, I go all out! □ 10 April Fools Pranks to Play on Your Husband I've included a variety, so if your spouse doesn't handle jokes very well, there are a few mild and tame ideas here as well. Since I originally intended the post to be about jokes you could play on every relationship in your life, I thought I would write a separate article specifically for Aprl Fool's pranks you can play on your husband (or wife). ![]() I learned there are some really funny people in this world! Some of those ideas had me laughing So. I had no idea it would get the response it did, but it was very popular and many people commented and left their own ideas. Because if the victim isn’t laughing, too, then the April Foolishness has not worked.Last year at this time I wrote a post featuring a bunch of ideas for April Fool's Day. The assumption is that the victim will be the perpetuator the next time, or even later in the day. Hundreds called in wanting to know how they could get spaghetti trees of their own, because who wouldn’t want their own fresh spaghetti growing in the garden?Ĭalling the day one of “symbolic inversion” in which power relationships are upended and “commonly held cultural codes, values, and norms” subverted, McEntire argues for a “folk theater” understanding of such pranks. Spaghetti was then a relatively new food in Britain. Mass media has been ripe for April Foolery since mass media became a thing. McEntire acknowledges, “no tool is more effective than the Internet” in suckering fools on April 1st, but the media’s willingness to play along started long before there was any such thing. Among McEntire’s media examples is one from the BBC show Panorama of April 1, 1957, which introduced viewers to a family of Italian spaghetti farmers. Of course, the pranks aren’t just person-to-person. McEntire offers some fine examples of the classic fool’s errand: “the victim is sent for a left-handed screwdriver or wrench, a board-stretcher, a stick with one end, a bucket of striped paint, a bucket of steam, pigeon milk, a jar of elbow grease or a fallopian tube.” Traditionally, an April Fools prank was one in which a “fool” is tricked, or sent on some ridiculously undoable errand, like hunting snipe, snarks, or frog-whiskers. The pranks are lighter in spirit, too, unlike “Hell Night’s” more anonymous and potentially dangerous tricks. It’s somewhat akin to Halloween, but embracing, rather than the darkness of winter, the light of spring. The day becomes one of celebrating the transition between seasons. ![]() Winter is ending, but not quite over yet. The coming of spring itself also seems to be a big part of the tradition of practical jokes and purposeful deception. If the victim isn’t laughing, too, then the April Foolishness has not worked. The calendar change was slow to take hold and there was resistance to it, but those who continued celebrating the new year at the beginning of April, old style, were ultimately shamed as “fools.” With the new Gregorian calendar, the beginning of the year was moved to January. The pre-Gregorian calendar had ended the year near the end of March, coinciding with the beginning of spring. For Europeans, April Fools hearkens back to the transition to the Gregorian calendar in the sixteenth century. “Organized festivals and spontaneous personal acts that celebrate the absurd through pranks exist world-wide,” writes folklorist Nancy Cassell McEntire in her examination of the origins and meaning of all this merriment. It’s a folk holiday of pranks and mild humiliations, in which children get to pull one over on their parents or teachers, and vice-versa in which media outlets can make things up, all in good fun. When it comes to our unofficial holidays, April Fools’ Day is one of the weirder ones. ![]() ![]() ![]() Oogie Boogie Bash October 2023 dates & prices: ![]() ![]() Here are all dates & prices for each night of Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Party in September 2023: Attendees of Oogie Boogie Bash can don their favorite costume for a frightfully fun time at this separately-ticketed, limited-capacity, after-hours event at Disney California Adventure.

A similarly named but different-tasting product, with a recipe more similar to the original American product has been sold in the U.K. Production was extended to the United Kingdom in 1996, but was phased out in 1998.

In August 1964, the Mountain Dew brand and production rights were acquired from Tip by the Pepsi-Cola company, and the distribution expanded across the United States and Canada. "Bill" Jones of the Tip Corporation further refined the formula, launching that version of Mountain Dew in 1961. The rights to this formula were obtained by the Tip Corporation of Marion, Virginia.

The modular systems are upgradable, featuring the highest round-trip efficiency of any home energy storage system with a rating of 96%. LG Chem’s RESU Prime batteries come in two capacities: 9.6 kWh and 16 kWh. Each PWRcell inverter handles up to 36kWh of storage capacity so systems are easily upgradeable to meet growing energy demands. Generac works to meet any budget with its three and six-module configurations offering 9 kWh to 18 kWh of capacity. On the downside, while its modular storage systems are high-quality, they won’t work with any existing inverters, requiring an Enphase microinverter to operate. For the last decade, Enphase has been the market leader in microinverter technology for solar arrays. Let’s look at the most popular solar storage systems:Įnphase offers a 3.36 kWh storage system and a larger system with a capacity of 10.8 kWh. Note that these costs will vary depending on your location and other factors. Here are the most popular solar batteries and their average cost before tax incentives. brands manufacture solar storage systems, and as the technology continues to rise in popularity, we can expect to see more brands develop their own batteries. Here’s a look at some of the most popular solar batteries: Battery Overall, there are not many notable differences between the two cathode types. Additionally, NMC batteries perform better in cold temperatures. NMC batteries have a higher energy density making the physical size smaller than the same capacity LFP battery. NMC battery technology is older and slightly less expensive than LFP technology. These batteries replaced cheaper lead-acid batteries, and there are two main types used in solar storage systems under the Li-ion umbrella: lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and nickel manganese cobalt (NMC). Most residential solar systems use lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, the same technology found in smartphones. Solar Battery Cost Estimator by Chemistry The federal tax credit expires in 2035 unless it receives a congressional extension. Many states also have policies governing renewable energy, offering their own incentives and rebates. Balancing equipment, including wiring, mounting equipment, and inverters.Contractor labor costs, including permitting fees and inspection costs.Energy storage devices with a capacity rating of 3 kilowatt-hours or greater.There is no maximum amount a homeowner can claim. Systems installed in 2033 are only eligible for a 26% credit, and those installed in 2034 will receive a 22% credit. Solar batteries installed between 2022 to 2032 are eligible for a 30% credit. Solar upgrades, including solar storage systems and solar roofing materials, are eligible for a government tax credit. Consider these additional factors affecting your installation costs, including location, labor costs, incentives, and more. It is more economical to install your new battery storage system at the same time as your solar roof. Going solar is a big decision with large upfront costs. The larger your circuit, the higher its potential rate of failure. It is also a good idea to purchase a larger capacity battery then stack smaller, less expensive batteries, together in a modular system. While many homeowners aim to offset 100% of their electric bills, most installations offset 40% to 60% of annual costs. It is important to understand how many kWh your home needs to support your average use if you want to save the most on your electric bill. Energy Information Association estimates that the average home uses around 29 kWh per day, or 886 kWh per month. Most solar batteries can be joined together to create circuits, creating one larger unit with greater capacity. Larger homes may require more than one battery to power the home or offset 100% of electricity costs. ![]() ![]() ![]() Enjoy this journey along London’s great highway, the Thames, across the stunning Chiltern’s, and all the way to Oxford, a vibrant city of learning and art.Ĭycling from London to Oxford via its royal monuments.Ī self guided bike tour taking you from London’s heart, past England’s most regal palaces and castles, still lived in by royalty and aristocracy.
