Tokyo Smoke Best Customer service in Belleville Ontario Cannabis? Nah they Bait & Switch.
Written by Ashton Deroy Tokyo Smoke in Belleville may want to consider a different brag than Best customer service. Cause They did a Bait & Switch. It wasn’t the first one. Quite frankly it won’t be the last. This could of been avoided if the Budtender Charlotte was trained Properly. If Tokyo Smoke accepted returns in the case of Want of Understanding?

Why will ROI always be higher with NextGen?
Achieving a good return on investment (ROI) on a residential investment requires careful planning and execution. It also requires diligence and support from the property manager. The old style of “set and forget” property management can no longer get landlords the best return on their investment. At NextGen, we understand the importance of maximising our landlords’ return as we are landlords…

THE WORLD'S FIRST ELECTRIC ROLLER COASTER
Granville T. Woods (April 23, 1856 – January 30, 1910) introduced the “Figure Eight,” the world's first electric roller coaster, in 1892 at Coney Island Amusement Park in New York. Woods patented the invention in 1893, and in 1901, he sold it to General Electric.
Woods was an American inventor who held more than 50 patents in the United States. He was the first African American mechanical and electrical engineer after the Civil War. Self-taught, he concentrated most of his work on trains and streetcars.
In 1884, Woods received his first patent, for a steam boiler furnace, and in 1885, Woods patented an apparatus that was a combination of a telephone and a telegraph. The device, which he called "telegraphony", would allow a telegraph station to send voice and telegraph messages through Morse code over a single wire. He sold the rights to this device to the American Bell Telephone Company.
In 1887, he patented the Synchronous Multiplex Railway Telegraph, which allowed communications between train stations from moving trains by creating a magnetic field around a coiled wire under the train. Woods caught smallpox prior to patenting the technology, and Lucius Phelps patented it in 1884. In 1887, Woods used notes, sketches, and a working model of the invention to secure the patent. The invention was so successful that Woods began the Woods Electric Company in Cincinnati, Ohio, to market and sell his patents. However, the company quickly became devoted to invention creation until it was dissolved in 1893.
Woods often had difficulties in enjoying his success as other inventors made claims to his devices. Thomas Edison later filed a claim to the ownership of this patent, stating that he had first created a similar telegraph and that he was entitled to the patent for the device. Woods was twice successful in defending himself, proving that there were no other devices upon which he could have depended or relied upon to make his device. After Thomas Edison's second defeat, he decided to offer Granville Woods a position with the Edison Company, but Woods declined.
In 1888, Woods manufactured a system of overhead electric conducting lines for railroads modeled after the system pioneered by Charles van Depoele, a famed inventor who had by then installed his electric railway system in thirteen United States cities.
Following the Great Blizzard of 1888, New York City Mayor Hugh J. Grant declared that all wires, many of which powered the above-ground rail system, had to be removed and buried, emphasizing the need for an underground system. Woods's patent built upon previous third rail systems, which were used for light rails, and increased the power for use on underground trains. His system relied on wire brushes to make connections with metallic terminal heads without exposing wires by installing electrical contactor rails. Once the train car had passed over, the wires were no longer live, reducing the risk of injury. It was successfully tested in February 1892 in Coney Island on the Figure Eight Roller Coaster.
In 1896, Woods created a system for controlling electrical lights in theaters, known as the "safety dimmer", which was economical, safe, and efficient, saving 40% of electricity use.
Woods is also sometimes credited with the invention of the air brake for trains in 1904; however, George Westinghouse patented the air brake almost 40 years prior, making Woods's contribution an improvement to the invention.
Woods died of a cerebral hemorrhage at Harlem Hospital in New York City on January 30, 1910, having sold a number of his devices to such companies as Westinghouse, General Electric, and American Engineering. Until 1975, his resting place was an unmarked grave, but historian M.A. Harris helped raise funds, persuading several of the corporations that used Woods's inventions to donate money to purchase a headstone. It was erected at St. Michael's Cemetery in Elmhurst, Queens.
LEGACY
▪Baltimore City Community College established the Granville T. Woods scholarship in memory of the inventor.
▪In 2004, the New York City Transit Authority organized an exhibition on Woods that utilized bus and train depots and an issue of four million MetroCards commemorating the inventor's achievements in pioneering the third rail.
▪In 2006, Woods was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.
▪In April 2008, the corner of Stillwell and Mermaid Avenues in Coney Island was named Granville T. Woods Way.

The Carenage, St George's, Grenada: The Carenage is St. George's bustling waterfront promenade that winds around Grenada's Inner Harbor. Its name is derived from the French word carenage, meaning "safe anchorage." Lined with colonial-era buildings, the inlet offers boutiques, seafood restaurants, and cafes, and is close to Grenada's bustling open-air market... St. George's is the capital of Grenada. The city is surrounded by a hillside of an old volcano crater and is located on a horseshoe-shaped harbour. Wikipedia

In Catalonia, to celebrate St. George's day (la diada de Sant Jordi), lovers exchange roses (that are said to sprout from the blood of the dragon slayed by him) and books (lots of places organise local book markets for the day). It's pretty much our St. Valentine's!
I thought that I could celebrate the day with a drawing of some girl kissers but don't know if I'll make it in time for the 23rd, so I present here the WIP:
(P.D. Beware of spoilers for Delicious in Dungeon/Dungeon Meshi)

August 1st 1834 saw the abolition of slavery, an abhorrent thing, and something Scotland can't just wash its hands of.
Many of you will have walked through St Andrew's Square in Edinburgh, and some, myself included will have taken the obligatory pics, most of which will be dominated by a sort miniature Nelson's Column, but atop is the statue of Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville, the 'Uncrowned King of Scotland'. You can just see him in the pic. Your eyes will fall also on several buildings that would have been homes or business premises of Scots who made their fortunes in the transatlantic slave trade. Many of the houses in the New Town were owned by people with investments in the slave trade.
Back to Mr Dundas, with his immense power he held at the end of the eighteenth century, he was able to use his influence to almost single handedly delay the abolition of slave trade a further 15 years to 1807 and the subsequent abolition of British slavery in 1834. He was impeached in 1806 (then acquitted) for the misappropriation of funds, and he never held office again. Who knows how much more suffering was inflicted on African people in the Middle Passage during those 15 years?
There has been much controversy recently about his statue. What words on his plaque would be appropriate to reflect this unsavoury side of his legacy and give necessary context to his role in Scottish society?
The magnificent Royal Bank of Scotland’s headquarters, Dundas House, was the original home of Lawrence Dundas, cousin to Henry Dundas. His brother George Heneage Lawrence Dundas owned plantations in Grenada and Dominica.
The 4th Earl of Hopetoun, the nephew of Henry Dundas’ second wife, and the vice governor of the bank, is immortalised in the bronze statue outside the bank. He was second in command to fellow Scot, Ralph Abercromby, commander-in-chief of the British forces in the West Indies. Together, the men helped to end the two year slave revolution led by French-African Julien Fedon in Grenada in 1795-6 in the fight against the French for islands in the West Indies. Fedon was a highly skilled strategist, and his men executed 40 British, including Scottish governor Ninian Home at his home in Paraclete.
After 15 months of fighting the rebels were captured and executed in the Market Square. Yet Fedon was never found. Legend says he escaped to a neighbouring island on a canoe, aided by either the Amerindians or ‘Black Caribs’ in St.Vincent.
The suppression of this revolution resulted in slavery continuing for almost another 40 years in Grenada.
And when the eventual abolition came it was Dundas and his cronies who profited further with compensation deals running into what today would be billions of pounds.
I'm turning of commenting on this as it can attract some comments that I would end up having to delete, you can vent your opinions through emoticons
Read more on this despicable man and the trade helped lengthen here. https://historycompany.co.uk/.../henry-dundas-lofty-hero.../

This 2019 castle house in St. George, Utah has been removed from the market. 8bds, 10ba, last year assessed at $5,052,900. I'm thinking that it hasn't sold b/c it's kind of cold and in some areas, creepy. Take a look at this one.
Look at the sheer size of the vast grand entrance hall. Yikes! There's a TV over by the corner fireplace. Is this supposed to be a living room? Can you imagine the utility bill in this place?
The kitchen and everyday dining area. Wow, I wonder if that light fixture is a real Chihuly.
The kitchen's huge and has sleek black cabinetry. I think that the area to the right must be for a dining room.
Looks like a pantry.
The laundry room is like a laundromat.
Huge home office.
I don't know what this is. Could be the home theater?
This is fun. Two chutes that come down to land in a foam pit.
Well, let's go upstairs and check out the bedrooms.
There's a fireplace and den type area on the upstairs landing.
Not lovin' the primary bedroom. It's gigantic, but kind of cold.
The closet looks like it has a pulley system for the clothing on the upper racks.
The en-suite has a tub in the middle separating a double shower.
Here's one of the other 8 bds.
And, its en-suite.
This looks like a children's room, so I wonder if this is where the chutes to the foam pit come down from.
Another bedroom with an en-suite.
This is the most interesting bedroom and en-suite.
Here's a covered patio, but the grounds aren't finished yet.
See, it's just dirt.
I imagine that there will be a pool and everything.
Actually, according to the plans, it looks like 2 pools or a pool and a pond.
Plus there's also an apt. Maybe it's for a caretaker.
