Well lets deal with the Brits or Europeans and food.
When I lived at the Grand Canyon I was friends with the chef at the El Tovar Hotel.
A Mexican chap who had a passion for cooking exotic food. Had special egg serving for breakfast when I felt like splurging for breakfast at the El Tovar.
Because of our relationship I was invited to the Chen Dinner where he cooked as he belonged to the Chaรฎne des Rรดtisseurs was created under the 1901 French law regarding
Associations with an International Headquarters based in Paris.

Chaine des Rotisseurs โ Food & Wine Gastronomy Society[^]
The menu was printed on a dinner plate and presented as a gift. Still have mine some where. If the Brits have a chapter it would be nice to know. I doubt it.
I live in the White Mountains of Arizona and my home has gutters and I have 20 Ponderous Pine trees on my 3/4 acres of land with 3 apple trees that produce a lot of apples the elk steal the apples along with the deer. I am sure no manner of contraption can evade pine needles from piling up in said gutters. Monsoon Season is from June to late September 2 years ago the rain was so violent and turned to hail it stripped my apple trees of 50% of its leaves. DAM Solution is a leaf blower & step ladder around mid June or the gutters look like Niagara Falls.

Nice to see the evergreen topic of food making the leap from the Facebook playground of the "DMC" to here. Not sure what the problem is with Yorkshire pudding, though. Light, airy, crispy, well risen, they're great.
The usual UK DMC riposte of course is biscuits and gravy; every picture I've seen of biscuits and gravy looks like something I once trod in in the dark when I had a cat
Anyway, gutters.
We usually have semicircular (sometimes box section) channels collecting to downpipes which discharge into a drain - often a separate storm drain rather than a foul drain these days. In my garden the rain downpipe is teed into a water butt so that rainwater can be collected to water the plants.
There are various methods used to alleviate clogging, the most popular being the "hedgehog" which looks like a very long bottle brush; this fills the channel so that leaves etc run off over it, but water runs through it. Fairly effective, but not perfect. See above re needles.

I haven't received the Daily Developer News since August 29. I was on vacation last week, so I didn't notice. I checked my Junk Mail folder and it's not in there. Any one else having issues with receiving it?

Same, I haven't received one either since August 29th. I have received a Daily Build on 9/6 and 9/9 but no Daily Insider since August 29th.

No. Nobody else is affected. It definitely hasn't been reported in the Site Bugs forum[^] - twice[^]. Nor in the Insider News forum[^].
I suspect either everyone's on holiday, or there's a technical problem and they're busy working to fix it.
Kent posted a message[^] in one of those threads last week, so we know he's still around. Hopefully we can get his morning dose of snark back soon.

I find it rather odd that no one from CodeProject central has responded to all these queries.

Same here. Still not getting it. Have you learned anything?

A certain combination of letters that makes perfect sense in Dutch, but not so much in English (although it happens) was messing with my head.
