Simple Salad Hack : Chopped Salad
January 22, 2016
I’ve got a great salad hack for you today that I know you’ll love (if you like salads or are trying to eat more of them). Even our kids love this salad mix and it’s easy to prepare ahead and even easier to get a nutritious dinner and salad on the table. Here’s how I use this DIY salad mix:
- Prep ahead for 2-3 nights of side salads – wash and dry greens and veggies and put in a bag with a paper towel to absorb any moisture.
- Put dressing and other ingredients in the bottom of a mason jar and put the greens on top. Shake when ready to eat – instant lunch.
- Dinner salad – add a protein and a couple other ingredients like tomatoes, avocado, cucumbers, nuts, and favorite dressing. Our favorite salad? Barbecue chicken and ranch dressing with cheddar cheese – yum!
Here’s how to make your own chopped salad mix at home – you just need a couple ingredients and about 15 minutes to wash and cut your veggies. I use baby kale and baby romaine because it’s smaller and has a good texture that my kids will eat. I buy pre-washed lettuce and organic produce when I can – that’s just my preference because it’s quick and easy. Feel free to adapt and change to fit your taste!
- red cabbage
- green cabbage
- green onions
- baby kale
- baby romaine
- carrots – I use the pre-shredded variety
Prep your greens – this is what I do for 2-3 days of salads for our family of 5:
- Wash and cut up or shred in food processor, half a head of each cabbage (keep the other half in the fridge for later in the week).
- Wash and cut up 3-5 green onions. If you’re not into onions, leave them out.
- Chop about 3 ounces each of pre-washed baby kale and romaine. I use a food prep scissors to make this really quick and easy.
- Add about a cup of shredded or chopped carrots.
- Combine ingredients and portion out enough for dinner that night and then pre-portion any remaining for lunches and dinner for the next 2-3 days. I use zip top bags with a paper towel in it to absorb moisture for a larger amount and canning jars for individual lunch servings.
I love menu planning and looking for ways to make dinner a little easier.
Here’s a FREE printable just for you:

Oops. This one slipped past us. Sometime, about a year or two ago, the Region quietly dropped the ‘a’ from aBRT (adapted Bus Rapid Transit) when referring to improved bus priority for express buses on the central transit corridor in Cambridge.
In a recent post we suggested that Greyhound might not have the license to operate service between Waterloo Region and the Toronto Pearson airport. Greyhound has been in touch to tell us that we’re mistaken. Quoting the letter from David Butler (Regional Vice President, Eastern Canada):
Over the years Greyhound has acquired many licences through acquisitions of companies like Voyageur, Gray Coach and PMCL to supplement our own P.V. licenses. I wish to confirm that Greyhound does indeed hold all the required operating authorities to provide this service under the P.V. licences issued to it by the Ontario Highway Transport Board (“OHTB”). This was verified before the service commenced, validated with senior staff at the OHTB and, prior to their coming into force, the schedules for these services were duly filed with the OHTB as is required by regulation. Greyhound has long supported, and faithfully followed the OHTB regulations in regards to our services in Ontario.
When we had contacted the OHTB, they were unable to provide a listing of services licensed to operate between Waterloo Region and Toronto Pearson airport. They were able to provide the license when given a company name, so we had requested those for Airways Transit and Greyhound. We had not anticipated that subsidiary companies would have separate licenses. We have not yet been able to track down the specific license that applies in this case, but we do not have reason to doubt Greyhound’s word here.
Mr. Butler also writes:
We are very excited about the initial response to this new service. We hope to increase frequency to match demand.
We, too, are enthusiastic about useful new transit service from Waterloo Region and increased frequency!
We’re happy to have been mistaken about the status of Greyhound’s airport service. The main question at this point is what exactly the province is doing in its review of intercity bus regulation. There have not been any public updates in many months. As it stands, it is hard to find information about intercity bus service in Ontario and, consequently, hard for new entrants to improve such service.
Update: Greyhound has reached out to let us know that they do, through a subsidiary, have a license to operate this service. Please see our new post for an update. Below is the original post.
Greyhound recently launched scheduled service between Waterloo Region and the Toronto Pearson airport, to much fanfare. To many, this is an obvious and useful connection. It is also, as best as I can tell, illegal under Ontario’s Public Vehicles Act.
Ontario has a licensing system for intercity bus service (that we’ve written about before) which effectively grants perpetual monopolies for a private company to run scheduled service on a corridor. GO Transit, the regional transit agency operated by the provincial government, is exempt from these regulations, but prefers to avoid its buses directly competing with private carriers. Last year the Ministry of Transportation put forward a deregulation proposal that is still under review.
Greyhound and Coach Canada are the biggest beneficiaries of the current licensing regime. For Waterloo Region in particular, Greyhound provides the direct service to Toronto, Guelph, and London – and no other private carrier is allowed to. It has poor reputation among riders, but there’s no other direct options. Similarly, Coach Canada provides the direct service to Hamilton. And Airways Transit provides scheduled van service to Toronto Pearson airport.
I was curious how Greyhound dealt with the system given Airways Transit’s license, so I looked up recent issues of the Ontario Gazette (where new license applications must be published). Failing to find anything, I emailed the Ontario Highway Transport Board, and was able to obtain the current operating licenses for Airways Transit and for Greyhound. And indeed, Greyhound’s license not only doesn’t allow airport service; it explicitly prohibits it.
Greyhound is using a move from Uber’s playbook, with the difference that it’s already the dominant player. The same licensing system that serves to protect profitable monopoly routes for Greyhound is the one that it’s apparently breaking in order to get more business.
If this is the case, it is not a tenable situation. If Greyhound can brazenly and intentionally break the rules, then there shouldn’t be anything stopping anyone else from offering service that would break Greyhound’s stranglehold on bus service along the Highway 401 corridor.
In August, we wrote about the missing crossing of the ION tracks from Traynor Ave to Fairway Ave in Kitchener. Without a pedestrian crossing, it means over a kilometre between crossings, and many residents are now cut off from services that used to be a walkable distance away.
Thanks to the help of the neighbourhood community, the issue made it on to the municipal radar, and the City of Kitchener recently had a public feedback session seeking feedback for a proposed crossing of the ION tracks. See the display boards here.
Read on for some analysis of what’s good, what’s bad, an analysis of how it will impact trips compared to before, and whether a crossing further west at 652 Fairway Rd (Fresh Burrito) might be better. (more…)
Last week, we talked about the gap in transit planning around ION and the 202 University Avenue iXpress. Click here to read the details. The Waterloo Region Record has also published a story, and we’ll be on CBC radio Tuesday morning at 7:40 to discuss it.
How can you help ensure that connections are in place for ION and GRT iXpress buses on University Avenue in time for 2018?
Give GRT your feedback! Follow that link to learn about the UW transit plaza and find a link to submit your feedback. Tell GRT you want them to live up to their key priority of building seamless connections to ION light rail.
Tell the University of Waterloo what you think. Contact the president’s office and explain that UW needs to step up and help our community get maximum value for our transit money, rather than obstructing good transit access to ION. Let the 202 pass!
Student or alumnus of UW? Contact the UW Feds and tell them you want the University to work with GRT, not against them, in order to make your own transit experience along University Avenue better.
Grand River Transit is investing in a new transit plaza next to the University of Waterloo’s ION station. But they have no stated plan to connect the 202 University iXpress with this location. In fact, they propose to have the 202 drive over the tracks and not stop near ION at all. How could this be? See the plans yourself, and then tell GRT you want the 202 to connect with ION.
Imagine that it’s early 2018, and ION has begun service. A young woman leaves her home in the Beechwood neighbourhood bound for work. Instead of getting in the car as she normally would, she walks towards the closest bus stop. Today she will find out if ION works for her.
It’s a short walk to the bus shelter, and a short wait for her bus to arrive: a 202 University iXpress. It quickly carries her along Erb to University Avenue, then through campus and she steps off the bus just metres away from the ION platform. It’s a quick and convenient transfer as the train glides smoothly into the station as she walks up and just like that, she’s on her way downtown.
Now imagine instead, her bus drives right past the University of Waterloo. There’s the unmistakable thump-thump of crossing railway tracks: surely, this must be the place to transfer. But no, the bus keeps going.
She gets out at the very next stop, beyond Phillip St. She doesn’t know the area, and she can’t see the station anywhere around here. She asks a passing student, who points back towards the tracks. She starts walking.
Despite crossing each other, the 202 and ION stops are a long way apart.
It’s almost 10 minutes before she has found her way to the ION station. By now, she’s cold and annoyed. These iXpress buses were supposed to connect seamlessly with the train, she thinks. Do they actually expect her to walk all this way every time to catch her train downtown, and then find her way back to this bus stop in the evening? Why does her bus completely bypass the light rail line whose tracks it drives over? She can’t understand why anyone would think this was a good idea. She resolves to go back to driving tomorrow.
Of all these routes, the 202 is the most vital to connect with ION.
Sadly, it is this latter scenario that we are being set up for. GRT revealed its plans for the new UW transit plaza and route adjustments in the area to connect here, and those plans specifically exclude the 202 University iXpress. Despite the creation of this plaza and the placement of the UW ION station, the University of Waterloo wants to block bus access to sections of Ring Road. The 202, serving our region’s second largest transit corridor, is a casualty of this decision, currently relegated to bypass ION and stop a long distance away.
The 202 is Waterloo’s best cross-town route, extending to Erb West and University East.
But there are alternatives. There are ways to make this work. Unfortunately, Grand River Transit appears to be proposing inaction when they presented to the public last week. The vision of iXpress cross-town lines feeding the ION transit spine may well be abandoned where it is most critical.
We must ensure that this connection happens. GRT needs to step up, and deliver a solution. And if GRT can’t bring the 202 to the UW transit plaza, then it should instead be routed to connect with ION at the Laurier-Waterloo Park station on Seagram drive.
Why not connect 202 with ION on Seagram, and also provide Laurier with an ION shuttle at the same time?
Making these connections between ION and iXpress is of paramount importance to ensuring that our investment in LRT benefits more than those who live and work immediately adjacent to the line, because they connect ION riders to many more destinations outside the central transit corridor.
It’s not too late to tell GRT directly that you want to see the 202 iXpress bring you to ION’s doorstep. You can see GRT’s plans yourself, and submit your comments online. Let’s help our transit planners make the connection.
At risk is the GRT business plan, which calls for increasing bus service by nearly 30% over the next five years. This is necessary in order to integrate GRT buses with ION light rail service and grow ridership by 40%. This will be a challenging task, one not made easier by the fact that ridership has fallen in the face of years of punishing fare hikes. Will Regional Council have the vision to continue to invest in transit in Waterloo Region, without gouging transit riders? (more…)
Imagine a gate at the end of your driveway that opens only once every 30 minutes. How would that affect you?
We tend to think of trips by car in terms of how much time they will take. So it’s natural to compare transit by the same yardstick. How long will this trip take by bus compared to car? Is a train that takes 44 minutes to travel 18km fast enough? No question: fast transit is good.
But frequent transit is better. Frequent transit means being able to travel when we want. But this is often overlooked. It may even be overlooked in the next GRT business plan. But more on that in a moment.(more…)
What’s in store for GRT? As we prepare for the arrival of ION, the region’s Transit Services has given us a glimpse into the next few years of Grand River Transit. Here at TriTAG, there’s nothing we like more than a thick PDF full of juicy planning details. We dive into the Interim Report on GRT’s 2017-2021 business plan so you don’t have to!
Obviously, ION’s launch in early 2018 represents a major change for our region. With ION light rail providing a fast, reliable backbone for transit trips across a single fare, integrated transit network, the bus system needs some changes to take advantage of this. In addition, plans are afoot to continue growing the iXpress bus network:
New 205 Ottawa iXpress (Sept 2017)
10 minute peak frequency on 201 and 202 (Sept 2017)
Extension of 201 to Block Line ION (early 2018) and then on to Conestoga College (late 2018)
You should expect to see some major changes to other bus routes in the wake of ION, as well:
Launch of the UW Transit Plaza (Sept 2017) for routes 9, 13, 31 and 201. (But not 202?)
Also look for service frequency improvements a number of routes, as well as possible expansion to serve new suburbs and some townships.
Some of the changes proposed by GRT for 2017.
Underlying all of this is a strong growth target being set. After over a decade of skyrocketing ridership, 2014 and 2015 saw a decrease in the number of riders. Planners blame this on a loss of school board funded high school trips, the disruption of ION construction, and also on years of unrelenting fare increases that GRT has been directed to undertake.
However, region staff expect ridership growth to bounce back and then some. Serving just under 20 million rides a year right now, the plan is to reach 28 million in just 5 years!
This will take some doing. For one, ION will need to live up to its expectations. But the real question is whether our regional council is ready to make the investment in transit that this requires. This means committing to funding the expanded service hours (29% over 5 years) and to stop driving away riders– in particular, the new riders GRT seeks– with continuous fare hikes well above inflation.
Regional government must commit to supporting ridership growth to hit these projections.
There’s more in this report that catches our eye, but only so much we can go into in one post. Do the proposed route restructures make sense? Is GRT being too cautious and incremental in its redesign to meet lofty ridership goals? And is there an overemphasis on peak service frequency at the expense of all day flexibility?
We’d like to delve deeper into these questions. Watch this space.
ION light rail, well under construction, is going to tie our region together, promoting dense, walkable communities around each new station.
We may remember the panic at the thought of a “Berlin Wall” being erected through Waterloo Park. Cutting the park in two, and separating the sides. While we may have a fence after all, it is proving not to be a barrier at all, as plentiful crossings of the rail corridor at Father David Bauer and Central Dr keep the sides connected. When ION opens, it will be just as easy to get from one side of Waterloo Park to the other as was before.
However, while all eyes were turned to Waterloo Park, it turns out another part of town was going to be cut in two.
The Traynor-Vanier Neighbourhood
The Traynor Ave neighbourhood lies just north of the Hydro right-of-way that divides it from the businesses on Fairway Rd. “Divide” in this case, is a rather strong term. In fact, there are dozens of formal and informal paths connecting this neighbourhood to the dozens of retail businesses on Fairway. Restaurants, fast food, groceries, services, clothes, housewares, and much more are all accessible to this neighbourhood by a short walk on foot.
Over the past month, installation of a fence next to the tracks began, sparking shock and surprise among locals. The Rapid Transit team has since confirmed that there are no planned pedestrian crossings between Courtland Ave and Wilson Rd, a distance of 1 km. What was once a 100m walk for Swiss Chalet is now to be a 1100m hike. Residents have now started a petition asking for a crossing to be reinstated.
Before construction began, there were dozens of paths connecting residents to the businesses. Here they are highlighted in red with some close ups:
Formal paths in green. Informal paths in red. Selected crossings shown with inset photos
These are not simply informal holes cut in fences. Most of these paths have even been legitimized by the businesses that they open on to. Fences have been properly framed to allow crossing. Other properties have never even bothered to install a fence, allowing customers free access.
Much has been made of ION Light Rail’s ability to help make Waterloo Region a more walkable community. However here, we see a community that was already walkable, have their access removed. It’s unreasonable to expect residents to walk the 1km detour being imposed upon them, and this will directly lead to more trips by car. The exact opposite of the goals of Rapid Transit.
Residents crossing the LRT tracks through incomplete fences.
The residents of the Traynor neighbourhood already see little positive impact from LRT. They are at the midpoint of the second longest stretch of track between stations in the entire system. The line goes through their literal backyards without stopping. Now, to add insult to injury, LRT has cut them off from their own neighbourhood stores.
Not Too Late For Change
The good news is that it’s not too late to change this. There are 18 months still to go before ION’s opening day in 2018. The issue now has the attention of regional councillors. Whether a change is worked out with GrandLinq, or the Region does the work on their own after initial construction finishes in 2017, there is still time to fix this before it requires interrupting ION service.
There will be a cost to put this right, but the purpose of ION is to connect us, not to divide. Let the Region of Waterloo, and the City of Kitchener know about the importance of this connection by signing the petition, and speaking to your councillors.

It was clear that, barring any wildly outlandish figures, customer retention wasn’t a dealbreaker in their decision to invest. In fact, it was probably a throwaway question, one of many in the long list of standard diligence questions.
Cut to 2022, and the idea that a SaaS company could secure venture funding without investors digging deep into retention metrics seems comical, if not reckless. Net revenue retention (NRR) is taking center stage as the qualifying metric for determining the health of a SaaS business. You can demonstrate an amazing product, have an expert executive team and show a top-tier growth trajectory, but without reasonable NRR, you will summarily get disqualified from funding consideration.
According to Software Equity Group’s M&A figures, the valuation metrics of a SaaS company with high retention rates can be twice as much as a company with average rates. Higher retention signifies a more stable customer base and greater growth potential, and that’s what investors care about.
Even if you aren’t actively seeking outside capital, as NRR continues to take SaaS by storm, your investors and board will expect you to know it well and with nuance. You must be able to confidently speak about NRR, how it looks by different cohorts and the strategies you use to increase it.
Net revenue retention defined.
NRR is the cumulative total of your retained, contracted and expanded revenue over a period, typically a month or year. To calculate NRR, deduct your revenue churn (contract expirations, terminations and downgrades), add any expansion revenue and divide it by your renewable revenue. This number will likely be in the range of 70% to 130%. NRR offers the most clear-cut valuation of your customers’ success. As such, it is becoming the north-star metric of customer success functions and, increasingly, organizations as a whole.
With that said, if you track NRR in isolation, you can hide churn behind expansion. As a CEO or investor, you never want to be surprised, especially by churn. To make sure you’re not being misleading, monitor gross revenue retention (GRR) alongside NRR. GRR uses the same formula as NRR, except you omit expansion. Use NRR with care and tell the full story, not just the one you think investors want to hear.
How can you increase net revenue retention?
1. Create customer cohorts based on value.
Losing a high-value customer can have a significant impact on your NRR. Segmentation is the foundation of proactive service that can increase product adoption and customer retention. Create value-based customer segmentation to inform your customer success and support strategy. For example, when designing your onboarding journey, you might choose a high-touch model with one-on-one coaching for your high-value customers and rely more on a tech-touch for other lower-valued segments of your customer base.
2. Use behavioral data to surface expansion opportunities.
Customer expansion is a sustainable way to increase your NRR. Monitoring adoption trends and other behavioral intent data is key to identifying the right time to approach the right customers with the most relevant upsell or cross-sell offers. A health score can act as an effective indicator of a customer’s expansion likelihood. Scores weigh both quantitative and qualitative buying signals such as service utilization, product usage, engagement, satisfaction, support history and more. When paired with automation, you can trigger expansion outreach based on positive score changes. Without a proper health score, customer expansion can be fraught with risk. Asking unhappy and unsuccessful customers to invest more can increase their dissatisfaction and will make your company look unprofessional.
3. Shift renewal and expansion revenue responsibility to the customer success team.
Renewal and expansion directly correlate to the value a customer realizes throughout their tenure with your business. As the custodians of value attainment, the customer success team has the most insight into customer behavior. Therefore, it is best positioned to identify buying signals. To encourage the growth of post-sale revenue sources, add a variable component to your customer success compensation plan. Tying variables to renewals and expansion emphasizes the main goals of customer success.
4. Invest in customer success.
One need only look at the rise of NRR and its impact on valuation to see that undervaluing customer success comes at a heavy price. With just 15% of customer interactions adding value, according to Gartner’s research, the opportunity for companies to corner the market with smart customer success that reaches out at the right time with the right ask is ripe for the taking.
NRR matters to SaaS executives and investors. Customer success owns a large portion of that metric. As customers continue to expect more value from their products and services, companies need to invest more in the resources and tools to meet their demands. Customer success is business success.

This classic Friends scene was banned in a number of countries
Safe to say this wouldn't happen in 2019.
You can probably recite entire episodes of Friends at this stage thanks to the constant re-runs on TV, but did you know that one pivotal scene from an early season of the show was not shown in certain countries?
We sure as hell didn't, but Jane Sibbett and Jessica Hecht, who played Carol and Susan, have revealed that their characters' wedding in 1996 was banned from screens in some countries and in parts of Ohio and Texas in the US.
"It was the first lesbian wedding to ever be shown on TV and they blocked it out in some affiliates," said Jane.
"But it all worked out as we got so much press because they blocked it. We actually won awards for that storyline!"
Friends writer and producer Marta Kauffman has spoken about the backlash that NBC, the network that broadcast the show, was expecting at the time.
"When we did the lesbian wedding episode of Friends, everybody was up in arms," she told The Hollywood Reporter in 2016.
"[NBC] put 104 operators on for fear of getting a million phone calls. They got two. A month later, they got the letters, but nobody called."
The relationship between Carol and Susan was in fact years ahead of its time in terms of LGBT representation
"I remember meeting a man at one awards ceremony that was held by an organisation that works with gay families," said Jane, who played Carol.
"He said to me that if he'd had Carol and Susan as role models when he was a young boy, he probably wouldn't have tried to [die by] suicide so many times. I hadn't even thought of that."

The queen size mattress protector buying can be useful in many different areas. On the one hand, a protector can have a positive effect on the lying properties, but on the other hand, the mattress can also be protected from mites and dirt. Different models are recommended depending on the intended use. Since the range is very large, we have put the most popular models under the microscope in the test and introduce you to the three test winners in our list of the best at the end of the article.
In advance, however, you will receive some general information about mattress protectors so that you can make a better purchase decision and objectively decide whether a high-quality or inexpensive mattress protector in queen size is more suitable for you. Please also note that although we only looked at models in queen size mattress protector in the test.
What is the best queen size mattress protector in India?
As a mattress protector, it provides a good balance even for poor quality mattresses and significantly increases the lying comfort. The cover consists of 100% polyester (200g / m²) and it is quilted, removable, and washable. The cover has a share of 2cm in the total thickness, so that the internal cold foam core measures 5 centimeters.
Overall, the foam is of high quality and offers good climatic properties, so that it is also suitable for people who tend to sweat profusely. In terms of price, the model is in the midfield, which results in a very good price-performance ratio. In particular, the model with a degree of hardness 2 should be turned over regularly to avoid hollows.
In addition, there are breathable perforations in the core that improve air circulation. Of course, the cover can also be removed and washed.
The core itself is 4 centimeters thick and is divided into zones. However, due to the small thickness, this hardly plays a role. The lying comfort is very good overall despite the only 4cm thick core and thanks to the nubby underside the pad does not slip off the mattresses, but it cannot be turned over either. In addition, elastic bands ensure a good fixation on the mattress.
The protector is also ideal for allergy sufferers. Although it is a bit more expensive and quite thin, it still has the potential to add value to a good cold foam mattress, for example, to improve the support effect and thus the comfort.
The moisture transport is greatly improved so that the cover can also be used very well if you sweat heavily on your existing mattress.
Thanks to the corner rubbers, it can be attached very well to the mattress and it is washable at 60 ° C, which makes it very hygienic. This is particularly beneficial for allergy sufferers. The soft microfiber under the bed in connection with a high-quality filling made of high-volume polyester results in pleasant lying comfort and good breathability. However, the elastic band at the corners does not hold up well on thin mattresses. It is ideal from a mattress thickness of around 20 centimeters. Up to 30 centimeters are supported for fixation.
The bottom line is that the edition fully fulfills its purpose and also offers a good price-performance ratio. However, you should bear in mind that the protector cannot be used to improve the support effect on an inferior mattress.
The most common protectors consist either of a cold foam or viscose core, but pads with fiber covers are also in great demand, even if this is more of a mattress protector than padding in the narrower sense.
Nevertheless, we looked at all three variants in the test and give you a brief overview of the different materials below:
Cold foam and comfort foam
Cold foam protectors are open-pored and up to 10 centimeters thick. They are very breathable, so depending on the mattress they improve the climatic properties of the bed. The thermal insulation is also good and the supporting effect can also be good if it is thick enough due to the good point elasticity. They are also anti-allergic, so they can be used very well by allergy sufferers with the appropriate reference.
Comfort foam usually has a lower volume weight, does not last as long, but is very cheap. In principle, it is a simple foam, while the cold foam is generally better suited for mattresses.
Viscose has a memory effect, which means that it adapts very well to the contours of the body. This promotes healthy sleep by improving the supportive effect. To be able to use the effect, the protector should be at least 5 centimeters thick, better even more. The material is not quite as breathable as cold foam but insulates the heat very well and scores with its ideal point elasticity. Allergy sufferers get along very well with viscose, provided that the cover is also suitable for allergy sufferers. Compared to cold foam, viscose foam, or viscose gel foam, as it is often called, is significantly stronger, especially at cold temperatures, because it only develops its positive properties through body heat. In terms of price, viscose is a little higher than cold foam.
If you are looking for a thinner pad to cover a visitor’s crack or to make the lying comfort a little softer, or to protect the mattress, a protector made of fiber covers could be an option. Climate fibers offer good ventilation properties, but only have a minor effect on lying comfort.
Comfort and lying properties
A protector should always match your sleeping habits and be based on the mattress underneath. For example, if you are using a high-quality viscose mattress, it makes little sense to put a thick cold foam or comfort foam protector (the simplest foam variant) over it, as this would rather worsen rather than improve the lying properties.
If, on the other hand, you are only interested in achieving a slightly softer sleep feeling with a cheap protector or covering the visitor’s crack, a cheap model with a low thickness or even a fiber cover layer may be sufficient. When choosing the protector, also note that viscose and cold foam can promote sweating. If you tend to sweat profusely, it is therefore advisable – if you decide in favor of these materials – to attach importance to ventilation slots and holes in the material and also to ensure that a high-quality cover is used that compensates for the reduced ventilation properties of the core can.
Mattress protectors with a zone division usually make relatively little sense, as the properties of the mattresses underneath come into play anyway due to their low thickness. However, it is quite the case that with increasing thickness the mattress underneath becomes less and less important, so that you could theoretically lie on a very thick protector from about 7 cm centimeters even without an under-mattress (for example when camping). Common protectors are five, seven, or nine centimeters thick. Depending on the degree of hardness and density (density of the material), they are permanently designed for a weight between 40 and 160 kilograms. The further you overuse the specified weight, the faster pits will form.
Before buying, you should always take a close look at the technical criteria. Both the volume weight (the higher the volume weight, the more material is used and the more robust the support is), as well as the degree of hardness and material thickness, should be selected according to your body weight and your preferences.


I don’t have a spindle on our Shapeoko, only a laser, but I do test different versions of grbl back and forth quite extensively with PicSender.
You can switch to the grbl 9j for your spindle or vector laser gcode files, then switch to the J-Tech PWM grbl for raster laser engraving.
After connecting to the com port in PicSender, select the yellow GRBL button, then Display Settings, then Save. Name the file something like X-Carve GRBL 9j. Return to the main screen, select Close, not Exit. Open the X-Loader and flash the newer J-Tech PWM GRBL 9g with Homing enabled to the UNO. You do not need to close the X-Loader. Open the Com port again in PicSender, go to the GRBL menu and select Display Settings. Change these settings in the left message window.
$0=30 (step pulse, usec)
$1=255 (step idle delay, msec)
$10=18 (status report mask:00010010)
$11=0.005 (junction deviation, mm)
$12=0.002 (arc tolerance, mm)
$14=1 (auto start, bool)
$110=4500.000 (x max rate, mm/min)
$111=4500.000 (y max rate, mm/min)
$120=8000.000 (x accel, mm/sec^2)
$121=8000.000 (y accel, mm/sec^2)
I have both of the X&Y Accels set to 12000 on my Shapeoko 2, but it has nema 17 steppers and no added spindle weight to move. You may have to adjust the settings slightly for your X-Carve, but this will give you a starting place.
After changing these values, select Send, then Save again. Name it something like J-Tech PWM GRBL 9g. Return to the main menu, Home your machine and set your work X,Y & Z (Z for focal height) Zeros with GRBL Z Code selected, then change to the GRBL PWM Code to run your X,Y & S command raster Laser engraving file.
To switch back to GRBL 9j, Close the Com port in PicSender, flash the GRBL 9j with X-Loader, Open Com port in PicSender, go back to the GRBL menu, select Open, load the X-Carve GRBL settings, then select Send. Return to the main menu, select GRBL Z Code and your ready to Home your machine and set your work zeros again.
I know it may sound complicated now, but after doing it a couple of times, it will get easier and quicker.
