Quote from: Joe on July 24, 2024, 09:13:25 PMWelcome back! We have missed you.

Not that it matters but I am watching the TV show ALONE Australia season 2 now, which is filmed in New Zealand, and only have two episodes left. Spectacular scenery though. (Season 1 was filmed in Australia)
not sure if you can get this over there but Mt Hutt rescue is pretty cool to watch... and cringe a little, hoping that I dont ever show my face on it!

and its the local ski field I go to mostly, there are some others I visit as well

...gee thanks!  :lmao:


apparently we have less sheep than we used to...

Fewer than five sheep per person
"The ratio of sheep to people dropped below five to one in 2022, for the first time since the 1850s, when national sheep numbers were first recorded. In 1982 New Zealand sheep numbers famously sat at 22 per person.

Australia is a big island, we have enough nutters here without importing any more. Find somewhere else.
😁
and New Zealand is too small ....and we already have enough here (looks up wellington protests to see our latest BS)

Don't run FusionPro here.

I got a sign-off using the IDAutomation version, so guess we'll be purchasing that one! (Pic attached for kicks)

Thx all, I love barcodes.  ::)
we use the IDautomation one (sans asterisks) and it works fine  ;)

we also have the indigo here, and the white gets used a fair bit, often hit more than once to get the vibrance up a bit.

and to make it very interesting we are getting a new ricoh installed this week, and will be getting the silver and gold options when they are available (july apparently).
The company that has merged with us currently has a xerox and the gold on that is quite good, but the ricoh is going to replace that... and I get to join the others with the training as i used to run a ricoh at a previous company, should be fun relearning it again and give me another skill

Adobe Illustrator / Re: Type on a path with distortion

anybody got a clue how to do this?

Inner portion near the center is pinched leaving the outer portion un-pinched.

TIA

I don't know if it's the best way but you can use the Arc effect at 100% instead of typing on a path. Then bring down your vertical distortion. And just do opposite for the bottom half.
handy to know... will stick that somewhere in my brain for future reference!

In Indiana it's 50/50. What you had before you were married stays yours. What you obtain while you are married is 50/50. That includes both your retirements but only what's added while you were married. Debt would be split 50/50. And it doesn't matter who obtained what. She can get you for half of her school loans but again, only if they were incurred during your marriage. Any debt incurred after the divorce was filed is not split. She can try for hardship but one look at why she lost her job, depending on the judge, he/she would throw that out. Submit character evidence too. Should be easy for the judge to see what she's doing.
We don't have alimony in Indiana. But there is "maintenance" but that ends when your divorce has a final judgement. It's meant for bills to continue to be paid. And whoever is paying the maintenance gets to write it off during tax time. The person getting it has to claim it as income.
Every state is different.
I'll never get married ever again.
sounds pretty similar to NZ... I wasnt married to this ex (although after three years a partnership is treated like a marriage in NZ) and I have a separation agreement (which states who gets what if we separate) so it should be straight forward. My previous marriage split was ok a well, but no kids then

BUT OMFG delooch, what a saga you have gone through! It would totally do my head in!

i so feel for you all! my kids are with me mon-friday at present cos Im 'working' from home, my ex is working at work (builder) and cos he would be hopeless at getting them to do any schoolwork anyway.

mine are 10 and 11, oldest is at intermediate school this year (probably junior high ish USA I guess?). his teachers have been fab, one zooms most days (maths) and I am pushing him a lot with most classes, often having to spend time going through stuff but he is doing ok, He understands has has a certain amount to get done before he can chill on roblox after school. oh and for the first two weeks i had no printer (eventually managed to buy one) so had to handwrite all his work out...   :facepalm:

the other one (primary school still) has a zoom class each day but he tries to multitask at the same time, doing maths online while semi tuning into the meeting (maths, voluntary reading and spelling is about all they have given them to do). Yesterday a school questionaire I responded to got the teacher messaging me and asking does he need more work and me going YES PLEASE! he thinks that cos the teachers are letting them do what they want he can just watch utube all day while his brother moans about having to do work... and me in the middle kinda stuck and not able to give him work cos " the teacher didnt say i had to do it!" and the minute its 'after school' he is on roblox as well
grrrrrr....

on the up side yesterday the govt announced we will go into level 2 on thursday, kids back to school following monday... yehaaaaaaaaa
Not sure when I go back into work though
