OK. Clearly, I have lost the ability to count to four. But that's my take. What 3 (or more, or less even) no-brainer tips do you have?
- You can do it. Learn a technique. Mod your guitar. Build the thing from timber and finish it. Wind the pickups. I haven't done much -- I've modded every superficial thing on my #1, leaving only the fundamentals like electronics, nut and fretwork left for me -- but for any given thing I want to try, I know that a) I can do it and b) someone on TDPRI will tell me how.
- For hot country guitar, you need a compressor, a clean amp and rubber-band strings. And, of course, a Tele. Unless you want to do it some other way.
- The most expensive guitar/amp/pedal/cable isn't necessarily the best sounding guitar/amp/pedal/cable. Specifically, the SX guitars from Rondo are perfectly good guitars that make great mod platforms and are even pretty good guitars out of the box.
- The Parsons White isn't the only way to have a B-Bender. And you don't necessarily need to bend the B.

On the ability to count to 3
On the Tele Discussion Page Reissue (TDPRI), there's a tread called "Post your three no-brainer tips you've learned here". This is my contribution:

1) Talent is WAY more important than equipment.
2) Talent comes with practice.
3) Just because a famous guitarist's name is on a guitar, that's not necessarily the same guitar said famous guitarist plays (with the possible exception of Schecter).

Offset pivot
That's quite an expensive machine that you have built. AND, quite dangerous. I certainly wouldn't go to 100 rpm.,,, especially with just one connection and a chain on the lower weight.
Earlier, I wrote; "The upper pivot point for the drive could be offset from the center of the gimbal." Apparently, you have offset the lower pivot point rather than the upper. (5 cm.)
Was there any reason that you moved the pivot of the lower weight rather than the upper weight?
I'm doing load testing now. It takes about 30 watts, DC to rotate 150 kg. at 60 rpm.
The reason that I ask about you moving the lower pivot as opposed to the upper pivot is; all 4 lower weights MUST be locked together to do actual drive work. All 4 weights MUST be synchronized to keep the machine from shaking apart. If you lock them together, how is any one weight going to free-fall on the downhill stroke?
On my build, The arm that drives the upper shaft only positions the shaft. It does not drive it in rotation. The upper shaft is free to rotate or not. After my initial load testing, I'll move the upper pivot off-center. I expect the rotation of the shaft to "retard" on the uphill and "advance" on the downhill.
It remains to be see just how much of this variable speed can be imposed on the lower weights if the 4 shafts are locked together.
Armandino, That is a very impressive build. It was very astute to offset the weights so that would act as one mass. There is one problem though. According to your doc that you posted, you have paired the weights adjacent Not opposite. Skinner has paired, synchronized weights that are diagonally opposed. This aligns the considerable mass transfer over the center of the machine.

Skinner machine design concept
I have been studying the Skinner gravity machine for a few months and been doing some testing and I believe I have come up with a design that would work but I just have to collect the materials to build it in a small scale to test the concept. If anyone could take a look at my design and let me know if they think it would work and if not then what is wrong with my assumptions.
Scale up the gravity motor
Bump !
I understand what Skinner was trying to do. He appears to have had limited finance. The weights are hollow. All the weights are "clocked" so that they don't collide. If there were a "pumping action", it would have to be done with 2 weights moving in at the same time that 2 weights were moving out.
Locking the 4 shafts together would have to be done with either gears or chains. They didn't have cog belts at the time. Locking the lower shafts together means that any pumping would have to be done to all 4 at once. Otherwise, the effect would be cancelled.
If there were a pumping action, it should be apparent by watching the flat-belt. I don't see it. Also, any oscillation of speed would cause problems with using the lathe. I don't see any need for pumping action. Nor do I see any evidence of it.
The machine is straightforward. Leverage is the critical factor. All the output depends on the angle and length of the lower arm and the amount of weight on it.
Skinner spent 14 years working out his ideas. There might very well be a way to improve it but, it works like it is. Best to copy his design theory though, not his build. I understand how to build the "quad" machine. There is nothing tricky or critical about it. The machine is easy to scale-up. Just keep the angles the same.
Skinner used a PTO to drive his stuff. It shouldn't be too difficult to put a big diameter rotor like a wind-gen under the base and drive it directly. A homopolar motor could be used also. Lots of possibilities.
If anybody wants to take my machine and use it for development, you're welcome to take it. Since it isn't a balanced quad, it must be attached to a building.
yes, I'm tired, never give up
Hello Danny,
It is a pleasure to find yourself. I, like you, I have not ceased to harass on the subject of the machine and its optimal functioning. You have to admit that we seek a highly desirable result in the world. Many scientists have deep thinking brain, sending him into a tailspin. The physical laws of this world prevent stubborn to even get small results. At the end of both larovo, money flying with the wind, hammering on his fingers, burned motors, you bang your head against a solid and impenetrable wall. I do not feel a normal and reasonable person. this my diversity gives me the strength to go on in this perverse game to grab the "miracle machine" that the whole world tries to achieve. often I give in to the evidence of my ignorance unbridgeable. other days I wake up with a "brilliant idea" that brings me in the midst of levers, mechanisms, motors, chains, weights, ellipses, acceleration .... and resume playing. is playing. This is the real desire that triggers all the springs of my brain. ensure contituità the game. who knows, maybe irrational reasoning could come to light, one day, the good solution to the problems that afflict people and find the "holy grail" of perpetual motion.
*I not stopped the construction of the machine. every other day I get a built in Poland generator specifically for my needs: 150rpm - 3 kW, 220V, 50Hz, confirming that ....... the dream continues.http://www.energeticforum.com/images/smilies/wall.gif
Stop the squeak
Danny I can really appreciate your work.
The squeak is not indicative of such good work. the amp draw tells me something is not true. It "the squeak" happens always at the same point. The top shaft is pointing left, in the picture, the transmission coupler is pointing to the back right-hand quadrant, and the Lower shaft is pointing to the right.
the shaft without the motor gearing connected would tend to make me think the mechanism would come to rest with the levers in approximately this position.
I would love to take it home to do more developments with but I am fresh out of space. big offer for the right person.
When I run into data limit problems I make trip to the local library where they have free wifi and using the download plugin that Aaron mentioned in my firefox and download the video there then I can watch it as many times as I want ast home. If you have any broadband free internet access that is what I would recommend you do also.

yet another walter skinner replication
dooo dooo dooooo dooo, dooo dooo dooooo doo
*insert ufo imogee
Hello ESM'rs,
im currently reading through this thread,
love gravity machines and pendulums,
always have,
I AM Determined too work a replica of some youtube videos i am inspired by,
and i plan too post the images and experiences on the forum, - hoping peeps are going too help me out,. - im currently lathe'ing some mdf drive pulleys, and will post the progessess tomorrow,, - the machine is days away from completion and testing.
last night it struck me that my math was a little wrong... and came back to check some progress....
rohndoe had a pretty good demo...
the longer the vertical shaft, the less work is used (L2a/L1*Mg) to raise the weights so they can fall, but the real work is resulting as torque on the shaft, (L2*Mg). removing Mg as a common factor from both leaves L2 (length of the arm), L2a (length of the arm + a little for the offset of the horizontal from the bottom), L1 (Length of the arm from the horizontal to the top).
L2 is constant so whatever length arm you have determines the base multiplier of torque.
L1 increasing decreases the work to raise the weight.
Oh, but it's the sin of the angle only that gets applied to the torque so a longer arm has a lesser angle (unless the top rotation is increased in diamter, which is doable I suppose; limited by the angle of ... well no, I guess a gear system on two hemispheres could be made such that even 90 degrees can result in good torque transfer. (100% gravity to torque translation) (or really just 2 45 degree gears since it doesn't have to pivot)
I guess 1.0 translation of mass to torque would be having the drive bar horizontal (attached image)
you don't gain RPM directly - the red (output generator/transmission) could be a gearbox to leverage it. The lower the output load, the lower the weight will be up to a maximum.... would need to be some sort of limit.
The outside ring would have to be fixed to the center part and rotate together... (lazy suzan plate in the center? )
That design is of course less horizontal space efficient but gains vertical stacking efficiency (somewhat).
(classic john device model, with a mostly vertical shaft, but then output torque only gains the sin(theta) torque, where theta is < 5 degrees, whereas the above is 90 degrees which sin(90) = 1.0 )
Some possible builds of a flat device....
The top is like a peice of plywood or something with a hole cut in it in the center for the gear drive, and a hole for the arm to go through, can then mount the drive arm down to that....
the second is the same sort of idea but maybe a bicycle wheel with a few spokes removed so the drive gear can get through...would have to keep the bar from moving in and out and keep it meshed against the center gear...
But this sort of arrangement simplifies the math some; should be easier to prove that the linear force required on the outside of the drive is less than the torque force you can get out for basically any mass > 1 on the mass-arm. and based on how much greater you can then consider moving it back to a more vertical drive
But then also the load needs to be a greater force than the input in order to require any gain from the pivoting mass. The mass would hang vertically and basically be a 1:1 transfer from the input drive to the output drive, then as the output requires more load, the weight would raise and compensate, and the input would gain at a rate of L2/L1 ( if L2(the mass arm) is shorter than L1 (the drive arm) the required force will then be that fraction of force required, and you'll start to note a greater output.
The skinner device would mostly be leveraging its inertial to drive a lathe, and probably only a very very tiny shift in the weights would be required. Full load would be the drive shaft ahead of the mass by 90 degrees. (even in Rohnjoe's video because there's no real load, the mass is only slightly lagged from the drive, only the slight force required to overcome the friction on the bottom would lag the weight).
Centrifugal force tests I made
I am very intreagued by Skinner's machine and have read all the fine work you all have done. I was very curious about centrifugal force and did the following tests that gave me hope.
Skinner 1939 gravity machine centrifugal force tests and hope
In this case I used a seesaw movement and not an oval.
And now I'd like to make a similar setup to test the input and output
of the Skinner principles.
More than anything right now the world needs a better energy source
along with some serious peace....
Centrifugal force acting on the top of the lower weight
Centrifugal force is absolutely critical. The John Device uses a flat weight so, it has little down-force. The Skinner device uses a tall weight. The centrifugal force translates to downforce against the bottom arm. It isn't just gravity that is pulling / pushing the end of the arm down. The load (resistance to rotation) is effectively trying to make the weight climb up. The taller the weight, the more leverage against the lower arm. The higher the rpm, the more centrifugal force is being converted to downforce. As the lower weight spins up to speed, it exerts ever-more downforce against the end of the lowest arm.
The top of the lower rod is pushing up against a ramp. The lower weight is pushing down to stay at the bottom of the ramp.
The upper part is pretty much a compounding device.
Skinner geometry
I'm going to try to describe the various actions that are going on in the Skinner device. It is difficult on paper. First, a list of terms / parts.
1. lower shaft
2. output shaft at the bottom of the lower shaft.
3. lower weight
4. lower arm(s) aluminum
5. square plate that connects the bottom of the upper shaft to the top of the lower shaft
6. upper weight
7. upper shaft
Part 7 transmits a circular movement to part 5. This path of motion is fixed by the top motorized arm and the gimbal. Part 6 is locked in to part 5.
The arm of part 6 always trying to fall to the lowest point possible. This constant falling is what holds part 1 in a circular orbit. Part 7 is locked into a circular orbit. Part 1 is limited in it's orbit but, NOT locked in. Part 1 revolves in a near perfect circle.
As part 2 receives drag, it slows down part 1.
Part 1 is directed in a circular orbit by part 5 and the force of gravity against part 3. If part 2 were to come to a stop, part 5 would continue to rotate but it would be forced to rise up. It isn't locked into part 5 but, it is directed by it.
Any drag on part 2 causes part 4 to try to rise. It must lift the full weight of part 3. In addition to the weight of part 3, there is added downforce created by the centrifugal force against the top of part 3. There is centrifugal force against the entirety of part 3 but the upper part describes the largest diameter circle.
This centrifugal force is working with the leverage of the very tall weight. The included angle where part 3 attaches to part 4 is under considerable strain.
The longer that part 4 is,, the greater the strain,,, given a constant rpm. A longer arm produces more downforce. A greater angle on part 1 produces more downforce. The drag on part 2 is trying to create an upforce.
It is an ingenious device.
Perhaps its about time to look at other options, a hell of a lot simpler than the quad Skinner device!
May I suggest that you check out Kevin Hay (Canada) on Facebook.
(Make sure you get the right guy - he owns 'Vancouver Island Ormus'.)
Kevin has got it all worked out!
To illustrate this point, I paste his first email to me about two weeks ago.

Hello Les,
Yes, our first model was sustained at over 400 COP.
It took less than 0.1 amp at 12 volt to sustain 1.9636 HP.
I am currently working in medical agricultural production areas however I am also engineering some of my more modern methods with a Japanese company that I am partnering with.
My engineering partner works in large scale rice agriculture and drone technology so this will allow me to incorporate my work into several areas, and allow me to provide these dynamos for people working in agriculture before any other field becomes involved.
All electricity is gravitational inertia based torsion induced compression.
All of it.
This is braking planetary inertia and this is not complicated.
I have over 170 designs of workable systems just in the mechanical area alone. My basic show and share designs are based on children's ability to understand this, apply this and use it effectively.
My work is in plasma initiation.
I have several dozen easier methods to generate high voltage current Les.
If you want electricity, do what Tesla did. Tap the planet.
My systems are being applied to electro-gravitational propulsion dynamics, as some of the complex algorithms for attaining inductive inversion of gravitation are not so complicated.
If you can understand that it is gravity that moves water, then you can understand that it is also gravity that is being compressed allowing for this reaction, called phase conjugation, to induce an electrostatic inversion of gravitation.
Restricting this induces electricity.
Not restricting this allows for inductive electro-gravitational potential.
I have simple leveraged systems that can make whatever electricity you want....just put the dynamo under it and line up the crank, and place whatever mass inversion is necessary onto the oscillator.
Any size dynamo, mega watt and larger can be run...so please understand that this is what Tesla did...in reverse.
I am showing how to build an electromotive generator.
Tesla showed how to tap the planets movement and electrify it.
I am showing how to tap the planets movement, by not electrifying it and using the inertia as a torsion based electromotive reaction.
It is easier making the river any size that you need, than tailoring a new system.
All that is really required is that you correct the inversions in the schematic and allow the existing model not to fight itself.
My first electromagnetic transformer induced 100V AC on 0.000 volt.
My second one went 23 feet into the air with a 9 volt battery.
My third one induced 268V with an induction sealer and self resonated a secondary circuit with 9.6amp at 120volt AC.
By the way, I have shared all of this on Facebook and you can resource this information in the PJK Free Energy Book.
Everything that Tesla did can be accomplished much much easier by understanding torsion tensors and inertia. We can create our own electromagnetic self induced oscillator, we do not even need to tap the planet any longer.
Hi Les,
I don't do Facebook, but I have spent over an hour on the PJK website looking for anything from Kevin Hay. I have not been able to find any information on that site about his devices. Is there somewhere else to look at them or do you know where on the PJK site his information might be?
Just because someone disagrees with you does NOT make them your enemy. We can disagree without attacking someone. This means YOU especially BroMikey.
Well, I don't "do" Facebook either but I use my wife's Facebook account just to check out Kevin Hay!!
By the way, Kevin is having a break from Facebook (which pisses him off!) and has now joined "minds.com" to try it out.
Be aware that he has published a hell of a lot of info of various kinds over the years but you should keep in mind that he has been on ORMUS for almost 5 years now so his brain/mind is UNIQUE.
No kidding.
IF you don't know what ORMUS is, you better do some studies!!!
His reference to the PJK ebook is general, meaning all other inventors and their inventions but NO, you will not find him in that book!!
Personally, I have saved most of his important posts, notes, comments, pictures, drawings and videos.
Thus, I have no less than 30 files in my 'Kevin Hay Folder'!
Les Banki
Okay so completely off thread topic, but regarding ORMUS
What is your opinion on Ocean White or ORMUS derived from sea water and Joe Cell like devices?
AKA what Lynn and / or Joe are doing
"Doesn't matter how many times you kick the coyote in the head, it's still gonna eat chickens". - EPD
However, let me just say that I have known about ORME (or ORMUS as it is known now) since 1995 and I also have 7 audio tapes (lecture) by Don (David Hudson's chemist).
The only reason I was not taking it (before now) is because there was NO supply that I know of at that time and even if there was, it would probably be prohibitively expensive.
Now, there are several suppliers and their prices are affordable.
As for the Joe cell, note this:
I have known Joe personally since 1995 when he stayed at my place for 4 days (and nights).
My best friend for 46 years, Paul C., had the opportunity to drive Joe's car with his "cell" fitted.
So, all those who have argued for years about the "Joe cell" are MORONS!!
Les Banki
wondering about the current status of the Skinner work
I did some work on the centrifical force here
Skinner 1939 gravity machine centrifugal force tests and hope
And I've been thinking that the oval rotation is much like
the amusement ride called the "whip" which was an oval
that had a car you sit in that got whipped around the corner/end
of the oval real fast because it had to keep up with the outer
longer circumference. And with the point on a paper and the
eraser head up top rotating in an oval makes the pencil
drop toward the paper and then rise back up when it gets
to the center/narrow part of the oval...
My question then becomes how does it go back up that slope
toward the middle of the oval?
Michael Nunnerly talked about the sling shot concept that was used
when a space craft was shot around the moon's gravity/hold so that
it could be accelerated back to earth...
Along with this then is Patrick Kelly's point about a chair on one
leg is easy to tilt and get it to turn with very little effort...
Any help or thoughts guys?
You have already admitted (in a private email) that you are NOT ready to make a full size gravity machine which can fully supply a home.
You just keep "theorizing".
Further, you seem to have ignored my single page document I sent you:
"Gravity powered free energy device"
Well, IF you want better technical explanations for EVERYTHING involved in a gravity powered project, you better check out Kevin Hay's Facebook page!
No ifs, no buts!
Perhaps other readers may be interested to read that short document, I paste it here:
Gravity powered free energy device
ELEGANT simplicity with the courtesy of our CREATOR!
ALL 'mass' has a certain 'weight', due to the effect of GRAVITY.
When a weight (or weights) are rotated around an axis (shaft) on a circular path and a given radius, centrifugal force is created.
The formula for calculating uniform circular motion centrifugal force is:
F : is in Nm, m: is 'mass' (weight) in kg, r: is radius in meters, ω: angular velocity in rad/sec
How it works:
Unbeknown to most people, ALL planets have their 'N-S' axis tilted and so have all Atoms!
(Planet Earth is no exception - its axis is tilted 23.44º.)
Our CREATOR (the greatest Intellect there is!) had his reasons!
We find that when we rotate a LARGE mass (weight) on a tilted axis, the power required is just a fraction of the resultant centrifugal force!
No, I am NOT the first, nor the only one who has discovered this effect.
Actually, nobody has ever discovered ANYTHING.
It was GIVEN to us in various forms by our Creator!
Thus, there is no such thing as intellectual property.
ALL energy is FREE and LIMITLESS.
Always has been.
However, most people cannot understand WHY and HOW they have been forced to pay for energy.
Anyway, by analysing my simple design, you will see five (5) main sections:
1. The GRAVITY section: 2 weight arms, 2 weight holders and the lead weights (4 or 5).
2. The CONTROL section, consisting of the tilted drive shaft, the upper arm to the motor and the motor itself.
3. The ELECTRONIC power supply, power analyser, speed controller and battery charger.
4. The GEARING arrangement, transforming 123RPM to 1500RPM required by the generator.
It consists of 2 x 40 teeth pulleys, 2 x 140 teeth pulleys, and 2 x 1600-8M-30 belts.
5. The GENERATOR (10kW for this design)
If mains power is no longer connected, the system is started by a start-up battery (takes about 30-60 seconds, depending on the set-up) which is then automatically recharged by the built-in charger.
A digital RPM meter (using a Hall effect device and a magnet to sense rotation) is also built-in.
After start-up, the required RPM is set manually. (for now)
Should the speed vary too much with applied load variations, automatic speed controller will be fitted.

Sorry Les.

You are right. I was reviewing old posts and replied to things that I had
learned and did not go to the last page till this morning. I was also tied
up on a computer scam yesterday and I have no dial tone on the ph.
Thanks to all who are diligently working and sharing you ideas.
I'll use my wife's facebook to check on Kevin Hay's Facebook page!
I'm processing you info next.
struggling with correct geometry
I'm still struggling with the correct geometry of the device.
in msg # 205 p. 7 Michael Nunnerly has a hand drawing
named skinner.drawing.jpg and I can't quite read all the
comments. It appears that the top weight is free to move and
as the top lever is moved back and forth the translation plate
will have to swing around and thus the comment is written that
it works like a slingshot which I envision as the amusement park
ride we called the whip because at the end of the oval you are swung
around the outer part of the "racetrack" real fast - thus slingshot.
And there is a gimbal at the top whereas other folks say there is a gimbal
at the bottom..
Any help with the correct geometry would be appreciated.
Another point is the small weight on a string swing around your head
will lift a much larger weight when swung fast enough... Surely that
is part of Skinner but my simple question is how do we capture
that force and use it. I did that in my balanced bicycle crank enhancement
of the test above by capturing the twisting back and forth of the bicycle crank.
But I did not get it properly measured yet.

Hi Norman
I did a lot of theoretical work on this after taking apart the video.
The drive motor is totally dislocated from the levers which when pushed (by hand to start it all) start to semi engage (sling shot) at certain points in the lever parabolic/ovallated movement.
The effect is like the small push of a child on a swing to keep it going. The energy created (loose word there) comes from the effect of the weights falling with reference to the MOVING reference point. (shoot a ball to the left of the goal post, but move the post so you make a goal ). One set of weights is the ball and the other the posts, the motor is the person who kicked the ball at the right time, and so this is repeated over and over again at the speed the machine is set to.
The top connection of the lever is just a free turning, both ends, bent piece of metal.
Hope that explains it a bit.

Thanks Mike, I understand the moving of the goal posts but which weight
is the ball and which is the goal post?
top? bottom?
Back to Patrick Kelley's chair. I when the chair falls to one side it
has to be lifted back up so it can fall again. Where does the work
come from to lift it back up? My thinking was centrifical/centrifugal
force around the end of the oval...
Perhaps you might believe that I keep replying to your posts just to annoy you!
But NO, that is not the case.
I am just hoping that others here might also read my posts too and finally WAKE UP!
Well, well....you are still confused and I dare say you will REMAIN CONFUSED
until you STOP believing all the posts in this thread (and elsewhere)!
I know I will NOT be very "popular" here by saying that virtually ALL posts here are pure NONSENSE!
How do I know??
So far, I seem to be the only one here who has actually BUILD something, instead of just theorizing.
While meaning no offense to Mike, what did he give you?? His "theories"!
Nothing more!
Les Banki
To finish off, I will post Kevin Hay's Facebook post today:
Kevin Hay added 7 new photos.
1 hr ·
I have nothing to prove.
The functions that I am showing and the mechanics that I am sharing do this for me.
This is the best part. I cannot refute these functions, as I try every day to test and learn how to better apply them.
That is all that I am showing here.
I am not trying to convert people or mediate discontent through usury.
I am not trying to manipulate others or convince anyone of anything.
I cannot do this. In fact, it was very difficult for me to break my own programming and move past the barriers that were taught to me as a child and through my entire adult life.
I could barely convince myself that what I was observing was possible due to the misconceptions and the disinformation that is still being taught today.
Now, I simply follow these reactions and I show some of them and explain some of these here.
I know that many people use facebook for a messenger system, for finding people when they are lonely or for hiding behind masks and becoming someone else for a time...
I cannot do this here.
I came onto facebook to share some information with people and to find out if there were others like myself among these 1 point something billion facebook users...
I have found a few other people here that have similar interests and yet very few have emerged that can accelerate what I am seeing inside of my mind.
I am hopeful that many people in the years to come can find this information and begin to test some of these very simple mechanical and electromagnetic devices as these will allow others to begin a much needed education in the forces that are generated from planetary movement, such as gravitation and electricity.
It is through understanding the force functions that control the flow of water that we can begin to observe leveraged torsion dynamics and scalar functions being split through the mechanics of molecular geometry and the phase convergence of opposing magnetic functions that invert and form the cohesion of "atoms" into matter.
I see these functions somewhat differently, as magnetic torsion tensors, as decoupled hydrogen in an atomic form, however this is not usable or testable through mechanical designs that allow people to see and learn from these simple polar inversions that induce electromagnetic compression, as gravity or inertia.
The simple fact is that we can generate electricity from a lever and an imbalanced wheel.
We can apply this system in the same manner as any hydroelectric dynamo or facility, only we do not need water for a conduit.
We never did.
Nikola Tesla and the Niagara falls project was a patronizing jump back in time, as this could have been done far easier and far less expensively by using very simple mechanical systems that could have been engineered several thousand years ago.
So, we need to take a few moments and realize that you can't test this by reading about it.
You need a lever and a wheel.
That's it.
You can make two compression systems from any bicycle.
A fellow just sent me something similar to Veljko Milkovic's pumping system.
Here is my first attempt:
Veljko Milkovic shows how to do this using pendulums,
So what have you built Les and what has Kevin built that works?
After you spoke so highly of Kevin I spent at least 6 hours researching his work. Did I find a working prototype or anything with as much potential as the Skinner device? No I did not.
I really think you should start your own thread as it doesn't belong here.

This time round the 'Saliva Tree' takes as its starting point the singer and reality star Peter Andre. Beginning with his twin connections to Katie Price aka Jordan, and Mel B aka Scary Spice, you can follow the lines of saliva through various marriages, divorces and affairs – and see in diagram form how Peter connects to a former US president, to the great and the good of classic Hollywood, to French New Wave movie stars… and of course to Kathy off Emmerdale.
'Why Peter Andre?', I hear you ask. Well, as with Carol McGiffin – the subject of my previous Saliva Tree – I knew the piece would only have impact if I could succeed in connecting a UK star with a wealth of Hollywood greats. This time round I wanted to pick a bloke. And significantly, given the fact that Andre lives close to East Grinstead, where the work will be initially hung, I thought I could take advantage of a local connection.The sheer time and effort involved in this piece of work is the main reason why both my text and sketch-blogs have been severely malnourished since Christmas (and why I haven't had a weekend off or a social life of any desciption in that entire period). Allow me to explain just a little… The process of making each portrait starts by finding a reference pic for each celebrity – easier said than done. Sometimes it can be quite tough to find a photo in good light that actually looks like the subject.
In one of my many rather odd PJF superstitions, I always re-size the face to the dimensions of a quarter page reference pic of serial killer Dennis Nilsen which I keep on my desktop. This was the first portrait I produced for my 'Numbers' book in early 2009, and it's a pretty perfect mugshot view of an ordinary face. I know if I keep these rough proportions all the celebrities will fall into size harmony.
I draw a large version of each face, in a combination of light-box tracing and eyeballing. Then I shrink each portrait by about 50% and retrace it on the light box. This is a kind of 'distillation' process that allows me to reduce the face down to its necessary line essentials. (This necessitated drawing 300 portraits twice over… that's already a basic 600 drawings.)
Some faces were tough nuts to crack – Jason Donovan took me about six goes. Edward Norton took me four or five.
Probably more taxing than the donkey-work of portraiture were the twin challenges of research and layout. For research I couldn't and wouldn't just rely on the likes of wikipedia. I consulted quite a few celebrity biographies in the library and paid close attention to fan-sites. Some of the romantic connections at first seemed too outlandish to believe. Did Brad Pitt seriously date 80s pop singer (and X-Factor helper) Sinitta? Apparently so - the photographic proof is out there. Did George Clooney really spend years dating Lisa, the Capital FM breakfast DJ? There's loads of evidence out there - it's pretty much beyond doubt. The challenge wasn't how to find out about enough potential connections, the real challenge was to exercise some restraint and editing skills to make sure the tree was in some sense (don't laugh) scholarly and truthful. If I'd believed internet rumours I could easily have connected Liam Neeson to Brooke Shields to Dodi al Fayed – and from him to the British Royal Family, which could have led me to a royal line of saliva stretching all the way back to William the Conqueror.
Laying the faces out fairly evenly across the available space was another very taxing challenge. Certain celebrities form 'hubs.' From their faces sprout a multitude of connections. Warren Beatty is an example - this bloke makes Russell Brand look like Susan flipping Boyle. If you believe half of what the gossip pages tell you, he has managed to cross-generationally shag half of Hollywood, from Madonna to Joan Collins, via dozens besides. Finding adequate room to fit his connections on a page without the whole thing becoming an unreadable mess of criss-crossing lines was indeed a challenge.
Originally I tried to plan the tree out in analogue fashion, by sticking five A1 sheets on the wall of my flat. Every night after work I'd try to spend an hour shifting faces around, chess-match-style, on the life-size maquette. The portraits weren't ready, so 'stand-in' portraits had to suffice. For these I used one sketch of the Queen Mother, printed 300 times and captioned with the relevant celeb names. It didn't seem insane until the day the plumber called round to discover me with a lounge wall festooned with miniature Queen Mother portraits. I'm surprised the men in white coats didn't come to take me away.
I quickly gave up on the analogue route, to explore a no-less nutty way of planning it out – a humungous digital file, with 300 lo-res portraits, each face on a separate named photoshop layer. This was time consuming to create, but necessary because each face had to be readily moveable – every time you moved a face on the chart, all the attendant connections had to move as well. Would it surprise you to learn that I shed real tears over these preparatory versions?
I finally dropped the files off to the printers yesterday, and I'm intensely relieved to have finished the task. Our show runs at Chequer Mead Arts Centre in East Grinstead until March 15th- private view on Saturday 5th March, 1.30 to 7.30.

Why are California's most vulnerable workers denied by Democrats?
Farming is a big part of Sacramento's identity, a source of civic pride in a state capital that is a hub of food science and sustainable growing.
We love our farmers markets, locally grown food and our stature as the nerve center of an industry that feeds the world.
As long as we don't focus too much on the human beings who pick that food, it's all good.
It's easy to ignore them as we blow by their work sites while driving on Interstate 5, Highway 99 or rural roads around the region. They are out there like phantoms in the crop rows, toiling long hours in the scorching Central Valley sun.
Unlike other workers, they are not entitled to overtime after eight hours.
A bill to secure overtime for farm laborers after eight hours of work died on the floor of the Assembly last month. It fell three votes shy of passage, a defeat made possible because eight Democrats voted no and seven abstained.
The Legislature still has a chance to make it right, though. Lorena Gonzalez, the San Diego assemblywoman who authored the overtime bill, has inserted her proposal in another piece of legislation, AB 1066. It passed the Senate Labor and Industrial Relations Committee last week and heads to a hearing in the Senate Appropriations Committee on Aug 11. From there, it could go to the full Senate before heading back to the Assembly for another go at members who had no good reason to vote no or abstain in the first place.
The defeat of the first bill last month was humiliating for Anthony Rendon, the Assembly speaker, who could not control his own caucus on an issue that should have been a slam dunk in the bluest of blue states such as California.
It's a labor issue. It's a social justice issue. Most of the workers affected are Latino. Yet down it went.
It was one thing when Assembly members such as Jim Cooper of Elk Grove voted no. Cooper is not shy about touting the importance of agriculture in a district that includes farmers in Galt and wine growers in Lodi. But so-called "progressive" liberals in urban districts also caved. These included Evan Low, a 33-year-old rising star in the Assembly from the Silicon Valley. Low is a graduate of my alma mater, San Jose State University, where there is a monument to the legacy of labor leader Cesar Chavez on campus. Low is also a member of the California Legislative Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Caucus, and he is a Democratic superdelegate who endorsed Hillary Clinton for president.
He voted no on farm laborer overtime. So did Assemblyman Marc Levine of Marin County and Bill Quirk of Hayward. Assembly members Adrin Nazarian of Van Nuys, Tom Daly of Anaheim and Richard Bloom of Santa Monica all abstained.
It was a reflection of the influence of the $54 billion California agricultural industry and of a disconnect between progressive ideals and farm laborer rights. It's one thing to line up sure votes for labor – so long as that labor is not primarily Mexican and employed by one of the largest industries in California.
Forty years ago, growers were demonized in California as cruel overseers of a trampled workforce. Chavez's grape boycotts captured sympathetic headlines in the late 1960s when they were supported by national luminaries such as the late Senator Robert Kennedy.
But over time the growers adjusted and flexed their muscle at the state Capitol. The California Farm Bureau Federation presented an image of humble family farmers while the industry boomed like few others.
Paul Wenger, the current president of the CFBF, is a Modesto almond and walnut farmer who employs three full-time workers from Mexico he views as extensions of his own family.
Wenger chafes at the idea of the downtrodden farm laborer and the evil farmer exploiting his labor. For Wenger, paying his workers overtime after eight hours simply doesn't pencil out.
"It would kill me," he said Friday. "It would kill family farms. There is so much uncertainty in our business. We are subject to the weather, to new minimum wage laws we have to absorb. We just can't do this."
I've known Wenger for years. He is a decent man who worked hard to try to pass comprehensive immigration reform before it stalled in the House of Representatives. When Wenger says he and his family worry about maintaining 200 acres of crops that have been in his family since 1910, he is not exaggerating.
But there are two points to consider when weighing agricultural opposition to extending overtime benefits to farm laborers.
Philip Martin, a professor of Agricultural and Resource Economics at UC Davis, recently wrote, "Agriculture is often characterized as an industry of small farmers producing similar commodities from similarly sized farms. However, a higher share of the workers employed on California farms are employed on large farms with 1,000 or more employees … Indeed, 64 percent of farmworkers were employed on farms with 100 or more employees during the third quarter of 2014, compared to 45 percent of workers in all California establishments."
The other point to consider is that growers have historically predicted dire financial consequences for making modest improvements to farm laborers' working conditions. That was the case in 1976, when farm laborers were granted the right to collect overtime after 10-hour work days. It was the case in 1970, when the the federal Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act granted farm laborers the right to breaks, potable drinking water, toilet facilities and the ability to file job complaints.
Gonzalez said this issue is about getting California to focus again on a population that slipped off the front page a long time ago. "Some of us complain how hot it is as we are walking from the Capitol to (nearby restaurants)," she said last week. "Imagine how hot it is for people laboring in the fields."
That image of workers in the field is disconnected from the imagery of healthy, sustainable agriculture. It's not part of the sumptuous dinner served to local elites on the Tower Bridge each fall. That's why "progressives" can vote no on farm worker overtime and feel little or no heat for it.
It's a picture of California that's not flattering.

Swimming Pool Maintenance
Regular Maintenance is Essential
It is essential that your swimming pool is regularly maintained by an experienced pool technician to ensure that it is safe to swim in for your friends and family. Failing to do this, can cause the bacteria levels within the pool to rise. Excessive bacteria can potentially cause eye, skin and ear infections. Although, in extreme cases it can lead to fatal respiratory infections.
Furthermore, without regular swimming pool maintenance you may be wasting water, damaging your pool or even adding un-safe levels of chemicals.
There are now many products on the market which can automatically adjust the chemical levels within your pool. However, it is important that this equipment is regularly tested to safeguard it from failure.
Steve has been working in the pool and spa industry within Perth for 10+ years and has a passion for providing a highly ethical and professional service.

Get DVD Talk Feeds
Not even a minute has gone by before the movie trots out its first cliche: Dale (Lacey Chabert) walks back into her house looking for her cell phone to discover that her boyfriend is cheating on her with her best friend! Then the movie ups the ante when she discovers her next boyfriend sleeping with another man. Fed up by a string of heartbreak, Dale moves to Los Angeles for slightly confusing reasons (she explains in tired voice-over that she'll be happy to have some flings, but it reads like sarcasm, and when we catch up with her there a minute later, she's already disappointed that she hasn't found something more long-term than an Italian photographer (Simon Rex) who sleeps with his models behind her back.
Over the course of the first 10 or 15 minutes, Dale starts introducing characters and doesn't seem to stop. The four that are important are her two best friends, Hallie (Jenna Dewan) and Becca (Carly Schroeder), the aforementioned gay neighbor, Seven (Jonathan Bennett), and Zach (Kip Pardue), a handsome rock star who Dale knew before his big break. Meanwhile, Dale's sister Jill (Haylie Duff) hovers over her shoulder while she plans her wedding to Drew (Chris Kattan). Other than the flimsy conflict -- Dale is single in Los Angeles -- and the blatantly obvious resolution hovering patiently on the horizon, there is nothing to propel the viewer through even 88 measly minutes but the movie's dire excuse for comedy.
Topics mined for humor will not surprise anyone with their inventiveness, considering they all come out of a joke book from the 1950s. Women are concerned about whether or not their butts are too big! Hollywood is a vapid place! Gay guys are emotionally over-the-top and love making catty comments! Women are inherently jealous of one another! The closest the movie comes to surprise is Kattan shouting his desire to have anal sex at Duff in a public park. As per Hollywood's rules for writing female protagonists, Dale is often awkward and clumsy, although director / screenwriter Christie Will shakes that innocence up by making Dale just as judgmental as her friends, looking down on "bimbos" in a club bathroom, and rolling her eyes internally at the people who come in to audition for the reality show she works on (a show she refers to as "retarded"). Directorially, Will has no cards up her sleeve, either, unable to hide the movie's limitations through clever lighting or framing. Clubs that should theoretically be hip and stylish look small and empty, props appear cheap (fake money!), and one or two slightly ambitious transitions are foiled by awkward execution. The performers do what's asked of them to the best of their ability (Pardue looks entirely unsure of what to do on stage), but nobody rises above contemptible material.
As the film builds toward a climax, it twists itself around to hit not only the traditional romantic comedy bases but also to allow Dale to fight with her friends in a bit of soap opera-level "drama." Through the film's definition of quality, Slightly Single in L.A. paints a picture of its intended audience that is far from pleasant: a vapid viewer unconcerned with the nuances of story who would be entertained by an hour and a half of women acting clueless, self-centered, and mean, as long as everything works out in the end. It's so insistently simplistic that the best way to summarize it is a joke worthy of the movie: this is zero-calorie entertainment.
The Blu-Ray
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: a grid of photos is the 21st century "floating heads," especially on Blu-Ray covers with 25% less vertical space for designers to utilize, and even moreso when dealing with a large ensemble cast. Slightly Single in L.A. settles for a particularly generic version of it, with hot pink borders to insistently remind consumers that this movie is being marketed at women. The art is slipped inside an eco-friendly Vortex case, and there is no insert.
The Video and Audio
Presented in 1.78:1 1080p AVC and DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, this is a wholly unremarkable Blu-Ray presentation. The image is crisp and well-defined, with well-rendered colors, but the digital image has no photographic texture to speak of -- looks like a low-budget 2013 release. The one plus for this beyond the middle of the road is the lack of banding, artifacting, or other compression issues. Sound is cleanly separated but has no immersive or nuanced qualities; generic-sounding music and sound effects come in from the side and rear channels, and crisp dialogue is directed straight down the middle. Picks up slightly when the music is a "performance" and not a track on the soundtrack, but the difference is minor. A flawless, yet unmistakably flavorless presentation.
The Extras
A single interview featurette entitled "Meet the Director" (13:33) is included. She explains her thoughts that went into making the movie.
Trailers for And While We Were Here, Not Suitable For Children, and Triple Dog play before the main menu.
Awful. Not every movie needs to be Wildly original, cinematically dazzling, or deeply insightful, but Slightly Single in L.A. is an ugly caricature of the basest idea of women are like and / or want out of a movie. Skip it.

When you use social media networking to build a business, your marketing efforts are about relationships. By using social media, you are trying to be everywhere your audience is, but you are also trying to make real connections with real people. It all may seem like a new way to connect, but it's based on the old-style neighbor relationships we've been relying on for years.
Consider a harvest time. When the crop is ready, people rely on the relationships they have with families and friends and their willingness to lend a helping hand to finish the work no one could do on their own. People connect. Then they help each other out, and increase financial stability and potential for themselves and others.
If you think about your social media interactions in the same way, then you'll naturally understand three of the most important keys to making it work.
- Make sure what you're offering is useful to those interested in your product/service. You can do this by offering links to other blogs and websites you find useful. It is important to be honest about your product and offer content and updates that will benefit your customer and make potential customers want to know more about you.
- Lend a helping hand, by helping people get started themselves. Promoting others will be one of the most rewarding ways you can build your own success. When you know someone else is trying to get the hang of social media marketing, let them know what sites or articles you found useful. Connect them with opportunities and take a moment to answer questions. The advantage of social media marketing is that, once you get the hang of it, you have a quick easy way to offer help and pay it forward.
- Don't forget to keep connected. You can join social networking sites, but if you don't actively participate you will be missing the benefit. It is important to update and network on a regular basis. If the only time a neighbor showed up was at harvest, you might not think they were much of a friend.
Social media marketing, when done right, can have a significant impact on your brand awareness & product popularity.

City of Bones (Mortal Instruments #1)
Author: Cassandra Clare
Publisher: Margaret K. McElderry Books
Pages: 485
Release Date: March 27th 2007
Rating: 4/5 Stars
Review: So it took me a while to find this series. I had heard time and time again from my cousins, my aunt, my friends, that this was a series that I would love. For some reason when someone tells me I'll love something it makes me not want to read it! I always fear disappointment after a big build up.
I can honestly say, that I was in no way disappointed by this book, except that it wrecked my emotions. At the end of the book, I was throwing the book across the room literally screaming NOOOOOOOO! In a style only fit for Darth Vader.
I called every single person who recommended this book to me with demands that they revealed whether or not would remedy itself in the second, third book etc. They refused to tell me and advised me to keep reading. Then, because it's only fair that I didn't suffer alone, I recommend the series to a friend so she too could feel my literary pain ( I can be evil that way). I was hooked.
If you do not have time to read the second and third book in this series in quick succession to finishing the first DO NOT START. I am warning you now, you will need to continue reading and you will not be satisfied until you have your answers.
Do not read spoilers for this book because otherwise, the book becomes quite lackluster. The whole appeal of the story is the shock and devastation of the ending and the fact that it drives you to continue.
The Story: Why was I so drawn in by this book? The answer is simple, it was unique. While the plot itself is something we have seen again and again, the world of Shadowhunters was something new. The idea of them existing hidden within our own reality was not only intriguing but fascinating and everything they embodied was new. (Although again this concept is not new, Harry Potter plays with the same idea). The concept that there were groups of people, demons and downworlders that went completely unnoticed by our 'Mundane' selves drew me in.
When Clary Fray so quickly witnessed something unbelievable that no one else could see had me hooked. I needed to know what exactly it was she had witnessed, why could no one else see it, who were these mysterious people she had seen.
Cassandra Clare constructed a vivid and believable alternate world existing parallel with our own. While I read, I truly believed in it, I was immersed.
Favorite Quotes:
Jace Said, "Unfortunately, Lady of the Haven, my one true love remains myself."
..."At least," she said, "you don't have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland."
"Not necessarily. I turn myself down occasionally, just to keep it interesting."
"And the boy never cried again, and he never forgot what he'd learned; that to love is to destroy, and that to be loved is to be the one destroyed."
"Jesus!" Luke exclaimed.
"Actually, it's just me," said Simon "Although I've been told the resemblance is startling."
Recommendation: Read this if you like urban fantasy stories with a lot of wit and sarcasm, but like I said, not if you don't have time to keep reading because this series is notorious for its cliffhangers.

Presidential Election
Bernie Sanders hasn't studied California marijuana initiative
When Bernie Sanders was asked last year if he would support a measure to legalize marijuana for recreational use in Nevada if he lived in that state, Sanders said, "I suspect I would vote yes."
On Monday, he was slightly – only slightly – more circumspect about the initiative looming in California.
"That issue is being debated in Vermont," Sanders said in an interview, adding that "in Vermont, if that bill came up, I would vote for it."
Asked about the initiative in California, Sanders said, "I don't want to tell people in California, but if the wording is reasonable – I should study this up and I will – but in general I believe that we have to end prohibition regarding marijuana."
Sanders said, "Too many people have criminal records. We have too many people who have suffered as a result of those criminal records."
Traveling in the heart of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta this week – Sanders will appear in Stockton on Tuesday – the candidate said he has also not studied controversial proposals to increase pumping from the Delta or to build to build two tunnels to divert water under the Delta to the south.
"To be honest with you, I have not studied these issues," Sanders said.

Over thirty years ago, Wendy's debuted their "Where's the Beef?" commercial campaign, starring Clara Peller as an older lady demanding more meat from her fast-food hamburger establishment. The campaign was a huge success for Wendy's.
I was reminded of Clara yesterday while our small group leader was teaching from the book of Acts. The Apostles were doing their best to lead the new church following the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of Jesus. One passage at the end of chapter 2 caught my attention. The early church fellowshipped with one another in their homes. They ate together (communion and meals). They gave to anyone who had need.
By this point our small group leader had lost my attention as I wondered what would it look like if today's churches… were a bit more like the early church. Well, for starters, we would have less of a need for organizations like Meals on Wheels, a non-profit organization that distributes food to seniors. Thankfully, we have such help today standing in the gap, but the need is larger than these organizations can handle.
The point was driven home to me several months ago when I was in my state's capital city, meeting with the head of a statewide organization to talk about Elder Source and aging. The person said something like this, "If churches were to get involved with the foster care program, we would have no foster care crisis." My first reaction was to think that I hadn't been talking about foster care; then I realized something. She had gotten my point.
There is no group in society and the church today that is as overlooked as seniors. Several years ago a pastor friend of mine wrote 100 local churches in his denomination to invite them to a free meal so that he and I could discuss senior ministry with them. Only one pastor came. Sadly, as I continue to try to engage churches, I continue to get the same result.
In Acts we read that the church grew massively in those early years. The persecution of the church that followed a few short years after Acts 2 only made the church stronger and larger. What was their secret? I believe it was the fact that they fellowshipped, they broke bread together, and they didn't leave anyone behind!
Millions of seniors are in every corner of society and the church. They are shut-in or in care centers, and many rarely receive a visit, a card, a note, a touch, a hug… from anyone other than a caregiver. Elder Source exists for these, our forgotten masses!

Client Reviews
Paul H.Date Of Review: Oct 21, 2015
What I know is that Ed, the owner of Platinum Motors, is very hands on in the business, & is the best, most authentic, all round motor vehicle repairer and seller that I have ever known of. He is also the most genuine, and trustworthy person I have ever found. Platinum Motors has looked after our cars and vans for years, & serviced and crash repaired them to a faultless standard, and Ed is always trying to help further. Insurance companies don't, make you aware that it's Our choice where Our vehicle is repaired, the "approved" gave rubbish customer service! & conveyor belt repairs, Ed had to help us out of that and put things right. He is interested in the customer's satisfaction first, before making money himself. They should make more money for the incredible hours and effort he and his people put in. Many of our vehicles have been purchased through Platinum Motors/Ed. They deserve recognition for care, trust and reliability, because those are VERY RARE commodities nowadays.

Avoidance versus the "plow method"
I read something interesting today. The gentleman said, "I actively try to avoid those things at all costs," to which he was referring to relationships souring or cancer.
But avoidance to me at times sounds like back-peddling, especially when one is trying to side-step disaster with a loved one. It can come in the form of denial and inaction.
So rather than trying to slow down and avoid, why not full steam ahead?

A Brief History of Sheridan Nurseries
In May 1911 two British landscape architects Howard Dunington-Grubb and his wife Lorrie settled in Toronto to set up one of Canada's first landscape architecture firms. They soon found out that they were going to have to do something about the lack of locally grown ornamental plant material.
In 1913 they purchased 100 acres of land in Ontario near the village of Sheridan, named after the Irish playwright Richard Sheridan and now part of Oakville. An ad in a British journal soon brought a young Swedish born nurseryman, Herman Stensson and his wife and four young sons to Canada to establish this new nursery in the spring of 1914. A daughter, Betty born in Canada a few years later, completed the family.
The first catalogue was released in the fall of 1914 for the 1914-1915 gardening season. Growth was rapid and by 1926 the nursery had grown to 250 acres with an extensive selection of trees, shrubs, evergreens, roses and perennials. The company continued to grow through the war and post war years when farms were added north of Georgetown, Ontario.
Sheridan Nurseries brought the first Boxwood into Ontario from Korea and the first Japanese Yew seed from Japan in the 1920's. After WW II an extensive program of plant selection started with the release of the Mountbatten Juniper, the Sheridan Hybrid Boxwoods, the Ivory Silk Tree Lilac and many other plant selections.
In the early 1920's, the first garden centres were opened (seasonally) one located near Yonge and Bloor in Toronto and the other on Southdown Road in Mississauga which is today one of the largest combined retail and trade garden centres in Canada. Other garden centres followed on Yonge Street (1950) in Unionville in (1967), Kitchener (1978) and in Glen Williams (1994). ). In May 2003, Sheridan Nurseries purchased Weall and Cullen Nurseries. Today Sheridan Nurseries operates a Weall & Cullen garden centre on Ellesmere Avenue in Toronto.
Herman Stensson died in 1938 and his oldest son J.V (Bill) Stensson took over as nursery manager. His three brother's Fred, Chris and Howard and a sister Betty all worked for most of their careers for Sheridan Nurseries. Today three of Herman's grandchildren are actively involved in the business. Bill Stensson, Howard's son is the Chief Executive Officer, Karl Stensson, Fred's son is President and Karen Gazely, Fred's daughter is the Nursery Sales Representative for the Atlantic provinces.
Today Sheridan Nurseries operates eight modern garden centres in the GTA and KW areas, selling not only hardy ornamental plants but annuals, house plants, garden supplies, furniture, home décor and giftware along with an extensive array of real and artificial Christmas trees and decorations.{Learn more about the rich history of Sheridan...}

Before there was no watch, people looked at the sky to see the operation of moon and day. Although they are no so accurate, it is enough for that time. Then we can also know that astronomy has the close relationship with watches. Nowadays astronomical timekeeper is never absent with the development of modern timepieces. The Jaeger Lecoultre replica watches with blue dials greatly show this point.
As a strong watch brand, it is not so hard for Jaeger Lecoultre to put such complex timepieces. While if they only put the star space in the dials which seems so easy, so this Swiss brand puts forward new Master Grande Tradition copy watches with steel cases which are one of the Hybris Mechanica series.

I like places that even just sound bad. Nicaragua has that ring to it. "I'm bad news" says Nicaragua, don't mess with me. I kept an eye out for grisly faced Sandanistas and lurking Contras but it was really rather charming and not a rebel in sight. The Staff Captain had only disparaging things to say as we ploughed across on the shore party tender. "usually smell the damn place before you see it" however Staffy only had disparaging things to say about most things.
But whilst Staffy was getting his whites dirty with Tensa Barriers and barking at minions, I was enjoying a breakfast of fresh bread and beer on a balcony over the beach. It's ok for sailors to do that sort of thing. Working on the premise that if beer is for sale at 7am then its acceptable to drink it at 7am. The bar had a very colourful parrot in a dome-topped wicker cage you could keep a man in. I was bemused by his sing-songed intonation 'Ho-la, Ho-laa, Ho-laaa Hooo-laaaaa' Of course he was speaking Spanish, what else would I expect him to be speaking. For all I know he might have had "que es un muchacho bastante?" in his repertoire.
Ho-la, Ho-laa, Ho-laaa Hooo-laaaaa
