Carbon Fiber, Handling and Ultra Lightweight!
BRABÚS Refines the Mercedes SLS AMGCarbon fiber, handling and ultra lightweight! That's the guiding principle of BRABÚS (
Brabus-Allee, D-46240 Bottrop, phone + 49 / (0) 2041 / 777-0, fax + 49 / (0) 2041 / 777 111, Internet www.brabus.com) for refining the Mercedes SLS AMG. The exclusive sport program comprises aerodynamic-enhancement components made from carbon fiber, ultra-lightweight forged wheels, an electronically adjustable smooth-ride suspension (Ride Control) suspension, a titanium exhaust system wîth bypass gate, and BRABÚS leather.
Extremely light yet enormously strong carbon fiber identical to the one used in Formula 1 racing was chosen as the material for the BRABÚS aerodynamic-enhancement components. The components were developed in the wind tunnel. They give the gullwing car an even more striking appearance while optimizing its aerodynamic properties. All components are available either made from clear-coated carbon fiber for a true racing flair or can be painted to match or contrast wîth the car's exterior color.
The front fascia of the coupe receives a visual upgrade wîth the BRABÚS front spoiler. But that's not all: The spoiler further reduces lift on the front axle at high speeds which results in even better directional stability. The two BRABÚS covers for the upper air inlets in the bumper lend the SLS an even more striking face while optimizing the cooling air supply.
BRABÚS also lends the sides of the SLS a sharper profile. The new air outlets for the front fenders feature a modern design wîth integrated blue-illuminated BRABÚS lettering. The illumination is activated via the keyless-entry remote or by pulling on a door handle.

Forged wheels that were custom-developed for the SLS are also elementary for the electrifying BRABÚS look. By choosing a staggered tire/wheel combination wîth diameters of 20 inches in front and 21 inches on the rear axle BRABÚS further emphasizes the sporty character of the two-door car. The ultra-light BRABÚS Monoblock F PLATINÚM EDITION cross-spoke wheels are up to twelve percent lighter than the stock wheels of the SLS and are mounted in size 9.5Jx20 in front and in size 11Jx21 on the rear axle. The extremely wide high-performance tires in sizes 275/30 ZR 20 and 295/25 ZR 21 are supplied by BRABÚS technology partners Pirelli and YOKOHAMA.
Another custom development is the height-adjustable BRABÚS smooth-ride suspension (Ride Control). It can lower the ride height of the sports car by up to 40 millimeters (1.6 inches). At the push of a button the driver can choose between damper settings that offer a more comfortable or sportier ride compared to the production suspension. To complement this suspension BRABÚS will soon offer the BRABÚS Front Lift system. It raises the front of the car by some 50 millimeters (2 inches) at the push of a button to safely navigate steep parking ramps or other obstacles.
While engine tuning for the 6.3-liter V8 is still in the final development phase there already is an extremely lightweight BRABÚS titanium sport exhaust system wîth four slanted exhaust tips. The tips have a diameter of 84 millimeters (3.3 inches). This exhaust system weighs 12 kilograms (26 lbs.) or 40 percent less than the production exhaust and adds an extra ten horsepower to the engine's output. A special feature of this exhaust system is a pneumatically controlled bypass gate that is activated from the cockpit. The normal mode represents a 'coming home' sound level that is quieter than the production exhaust. It appeals especially to the neighbors when the SLS returns home late at night. With open bypass gate the eight-cylinder engine sounds even sportier than wîth the stock exhaust system.
For the cockpit of the two-seater the BRABÚS interior designers have developed exclusive accessories and masterfully crafted custom interiors. The speedometer wîth 400-km/h scale (250 mph) already hints at the car's future performance wîth BRABÚS engine tuning. An ergonomically shaped sport §teering wheel is also part of the BRABÚS customization program as are stainless-steel scuff plates wîth illuminated BRABÚS logo and matte-anodized pedals.
The BRABÚS upholstery shop creates fully custom interiors for the SLS from top-quality materials. Customers can choose from different types of leather and Alcantara in any desired color and design to suit their individual tastes.
BRABÚS can also fulfill individual requests for the trim on dashboard, center console and door panels. BRABÚS manufactures carbon-fiber and wood trim sets in any color and wîth any desired surface finish.Source - Brabus

but the objection at the time is what preserves your right to an appeal based on that action. If you don't object then, you don't get to go back later and argue it was improper. Acquiescence equals acceptance.. So whether I objected to it or not seems irrelevant as it would've been allowed anyway and probably would've just pissed off the General Magistrate and fueled the officer to seek further fines\points\whatever he can do. Also, are you leading at an appeal that there is grounds for a true appeal?
as to there being some appealable point? No idea. It is all based on specific actions within the hearing and I wasn't there.

I have a feeling that the size of the data set may be what is causing the problem. As part of the MNOM command, where is it getting stuck, MLwiN expands the data to approximately number of response categories times the size. This may in your case be larger than the currently set MLwiN worksheet size. To test whether this is the case you can try one or more of the following:
1) See if the model works with fewer variables (perhaps just cons)
2) Try fitting the model on a small sample of your data
3) Increase the default worksheet size in MLwiN. To do this open MLwiN and choose Options->Worksheet from the menu. Next choose a larger worksheet size (I would suggest starting with 100000) and click "use as defaults". Next time you use runmlwin it should be using this larger size.

"All the technique in the world doesn't compensate for the inability to notice."
Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.
When you take a photograph and let your camera calculate the exposure automatically it will try to get as much of the scene as possible to lie between totally black (underexposed) and totally white (overexposed). This works well in most situations but when you're photographing snow the camera still tries to go through the same process and all the white snow makes it think that it should reduce the exposure resulting in dull grey snow.
To get bright white snow photos at the time of taking the photograph, simply set your cameras exposure compensation (usually called EV in camera menus) to increase the exposure by about +1. The actual value you use will depend on the exposure you want and the amount of snow in your scene.
If you prefer you can tweak your exposure once you get home in the warm. If you shoot RAW, you can simply apply the same exposure compensation through your RAW processing utility. If not then y0u can use Photoshop's "Exposure" adjustment layer* to make the same adjustment.
Although most people think that taking a picture is just as simple as pointing and shooting, there really is an art form to it. Typically, your photos never look quite as good as you imagined they would. However, once you learn the proper techniques, it really is simple to take great pictures.
Keeping your camera at the same eye level as your subject is an important thing to consider when photographing people. People will be drawn to the photo because it will have a very personal feeling about it. If you are photographing children this may mean stooping down to their level.
When you have to make a choice on what photos you want to show off, pick the best ones! Keep things fresh and not repetitive. Just because you took a photo does not mean you have to show it. It can be boring seeing the same things multiple times. Keep it fresh by showing different facets of your photography.
A slightly blurred background is better for shots of people. A focused background can distract viewers from seeing the beauty of your intended subject. You can do this by making the background farther away than your subject.
You need not stand directly in front of an object to photograph it. Try interesting angles such as shooting from above, underneath, moving from side to side of the subject, or holding the camera at waist level.
Concentrate on the photos that stand out or capture a familiar scene with a novel point of view. Even though your camera can hold a lot of pictures, try to simplify your album by saving only your favorite pictures.
Play around with alternate approaches to expressions, perspectives and scale. An otherwise ordinary subject can appear quite artful if placed in an environment where it appears drastically disproportionate in size or humorously out of place. You can achieve an entirely novel perspective on a familiar subject if you play around with your composition enough.
You can get some interesting effects by playing with your shutter speeds. For fast moving events, a lightning fast shutter speed allows you capture the action of moving objects without the blur of a normal shutter speed. This is particularly useful when you are taking pictures of a sporting event. Alternately, you can take advantage of motion blur with a slow shutter speed. You will get great results with water features like streams and waterfalls when using the motion-blur with slower shutter speed method.
Although your camera can take horizontal shots, you shouldn't completely rely on this feature. Some of the most striking pictures happen when the camera is turned vertically. You can experiment with your zoom for close up full effect and far out inclusive pictures.
The key to an amazing photo is composition. Some people have natural talent when it comes to photo composition, while some have to explicitly learn this skill. Where you frame your subject in the field of view can add a lot of interest to your photos if you eschew the most common subject-in-the-center composition.
Stay simple with the settings you use for your photographs. Take the time to fully understand one part of your camera controls, such as shutter speed, prior to moving on to aperture or other features. Once you are very skilled with your settings, you will be able to make adjustments quickly and focus all your attention on getting excellent photos.
Read the manual that comes with your camera until you truly feel that you have a mastery for all the settings it has. Camera manuals have a certain bulky heft that discourages reading. Often, people put them in a file drawer or throw them in the garbage. Instead of letting it gather dust, crack it open and give it a look. It can enable you to take better photos, and it will also prevent you from making stupid mistakes.
Take a silhouette shot. Many methods for creating a silhouette exist, including the most popular method of using a sunset. Any time that brightness in a backdrop exceeds that of the subject, a silhouette will be created. Having a beautiful silhouette can be as simple as positioning the flash away from the camera, behind the subject you are photographing. A bright light outside a window can also produce similar results. Just bear in mind that sometimes the outline of a body or face can highlight an unflattering feature.
Consider what the photograph you're creating will be used for, prior to taking the shot. You will be able to capture some scenes better by shooting them vertically, rather than horizontally. It is usually possible to use a photo editor to fix this after the fact, but it's better if you get it right the first time.
Play around with the focus-lock setting on your camera to learn what it does. Usually cameras automatically focus on the middle of the frame, leaving an off-center subject out of focus unless you manually tell the camera where to focus. You can change where the camera is focused by having your subject be in the middle of the shot and pressing the shutter button slightly. Then adjust your picture however you want it to look and the camera should still focus on your subject. Push the shutter button down all the way to take the picture.
You may not have always been happy with your past photographs. Fortunately, you won't have to feel that displeasure ever again if you implement the hints and tips you were given in this article. Using these strategies you'll be proud of your pictures and want to show them to the whole world.
Read MoreAre you interested in making a common pastime a serious artistic endeavor? Find out how your photography can be transformed from ordinary to incredible by following the advice in the below article. The tips provided here will cover the spectrum of tools available to become a competent and professional photographer.
Using a flash when taking photos outdoors can be very important. Bright sunlight can create deep unwanted facial shadows. If you have fill flash on the camera, set it to this. This setting will eliminate the shadows that appear in deep facial folds.
You should always have an idea as to if you want to use highlights or shadow exposure in your pictures. Good photo software will let you take two pictures demonstrating each effect, and blend them to create the perfect balance of both.
As a learning exercise, set restrictions that force you to find creative solutions. Focus on specific concepts to narrow the scope of your photography. Try to shoot 100 different photographs from the same point or within the same room. Working under such limitations will spur you to think creatively and take more experimental photos.
Be mindful to stay in optical zoom rather than digital zoom when you are zooming in close on your subject. Lots of cameras allow you to zoom really close, but when your camera switches to digital zoom, the quality of the photo is going to suffer greatly. The image quality decreases because digital features adds interpolated pixels. Read your camera manual, so you can see how to disable the feature in your model.
Do not limit your human photography to simply taking pictures of faces. The human body provides ample opportunities for striking photography.
Get really close to your shot. Try moving in closer or zooming in on your subject when framing a shot. Make sure your subject completely occupies the shot's frame. If you have too much going on in the background, even if it is scenic, can make you lose focus of the subject. You also get a more detailed shot when you are closer to your subject.
Learn about how to properly compose a photograph when you want to take better pictures. Like some other artistic ventures, if you do not have good composition, it is not good! Composition requires you to find lines and patterns in your images. Learning about it will truly improve the quality of your photos.
As a novice photographer, learn to understand the light colors in your photos, also known as white balance. Experimenting with lighting will help you know how your pictures are affected.
When you know you will be snapping photos in poor lighting, bump your shutter speed up a bit. Low light tends to make pictures blurry; a high shutter speed will counteract this. Shutter speeds that are 1/200th or 1/250t
h of a second are the recommended minimums in this situation.
Filters are an easy way to improve the function of a lens. They typically screw on the lens and offer a number of different effects. A UV filter is the type that is most commonly used. This type of filter will protect your lens from direct sunlight and it's harmful UV rays. It may also protect your camera lens from physical damage in case it's dropped.
Try out all the different shutter speeds and experiment in various scenarios so you have an idea what works best. A moment in time can be captured by a photograph, and then grouped with others to show an expansive time period. For example, a fast shutter speed allows you to catch fast moving objects clearly.
Photography is a wonderful hobby you can introduce to your children. Giving your children an old camera or even a cheap digital model can give them a hobby to enjoy for a lifetime. Photography is something enjoyed by almost everyone, so your children are almost sure to love the time you spend taking pictures with them.
The amount of light that you let into your lens through aperture and shutter speed settings is critical here. The more you know about controlling how your photos are exposed, the better your pictures will turn out.
Keep your images balanced. By carefully balan
cing all images in your photos, you'll have pictures good enough to be displayed in an art gallery. By insuring your horizon is level and all the other elements in your photo make sense, you can ensure your picture has that special "wow factor."
When you are taking photographs outdoors, the most vital element is lighting. What could be a beautiful photo can easily be ruined when lighting is too dark, too light or fuzzy. Take advantage of shady areas out of the direct sun light, and if this is not possible, keep the sun at your back. This creates ideal lighting, and results in lovely photos.
Knowing what equipment works for you is crucial if you aim to make photography more than an occasional hobby. Many professional photographers prefer a specific name brand, but there are several other brands that
Don't pack your equipment carelessly when traveling. Take extra batteries, cleaning accessories and different lenses. Don't take 50 lenses when five will do, as this could bog you down when trying to carry your camera equipment from place to place.provide consistently good results as well.
You need to understand how light can be used to create stunning photos as well as how to properly focus on your subject. Practice all of the techniques listed here to help build your own personal style and give yourself the tools to take awe-inspiring shots!

Coke and Pepsi May Be Losing Their Fizz
More and more homo sapiens are having the same reaction, and that has companies Coca-Cola (KO) and Pepsico (PEP) sweating big, anxious drops.
In an article last weekend in The Wall Street Journal titled "Is This the End of the Soft Drink Era?", author Mike Esterl made a timely observation:
As U.S. consumptionof soda beverages slipped over the past eight years, the beverage giants typically were able to raise prices enough to keep soda revenue growing.
But soda sales at U.S. stores declined in the send half of last year -- including the holidays, when partygoers normally pay up to gulp more.
The baby-boom generation, still over 73 million in number, is becoming more concerned about the ramifications of ingesting too much sugar or artificial sweeteners.
"The question from here is if that is the new norm," Steve Powers, a beverage analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein, told the Journal after reviewing the latest store sales numbers. Last year the sale of carbonated, flavored sugary beverages (a.k.a. "soda") declined by 0.6% to $28.70 billion at American stores. In terms of volume the sales actually dropped by almost 2%.
The article quoted statistics by SymphonyIRI Group, a consulting company that claims to be "...a global leader in innovative solutions and services for the CPG, retail and health-care industries." Its clients are most of the members of the Fortune 100 CPG and retail companies.
In a news story on Tuesday, SymphonyIRI said its fourth-quarter 2012 MarketPulse survey "found that shopper sentiment dropped to its lowest point since Q3 2011. While consumers across all age groups feel the strain of ongoing economic strife, those aged 35-54 convey particularly gloomy attitudes, with 43% stating that their financial situation deteriorated in 2012."
This doesn't help the angst that management is feeling at both KO and PEP. The chart below clearly illustrates what's been unfolding when it comes to KO's share price and the trailing-twelve-month revenue-per-share direction.

Fourteen-year-old Madeline Epstein is full of promise. The eighth-grader at Booker Middle School starts her day at 5:40 a.m. most mornings and goes until about 8 p.m. with all of her extracurricular activities. She is a dancer, singer and model student.
Madeline made it to the county history and science fair. Her science-fair project tied into her love for the arts. She hypothesized that learning with music would not be as productive as learning without music. Her hypothesis was correct, but she discovered classical music was the best music choice to when learning something. Her history-fair project was on Joan of Arc.
"I knew I wanted to do a history project on her when I found out she jumped off a 66-foot building and survived," Madeline says.
Madeline began singing at the same time she learned how to speak; she's also been dancing ever since she could walk.
"When I am dancing jazz, I feel sassy; when I am dancing ballet, I feel free and graceful; and when I dance composition, I can make up my own dances so I can express myself," says Madeline.
She is in the magnet Visual and Performing Arts program at Booker Middle School and dances with Dance- The Next Generation. Last summer, she attended an intensive dance camp with the Sarasota Ballet and next year she will be in the ACE program, at Sarasota High School.
Last week, Madeline and her friends, Bailey Lovesky, Halle Nobles and Patty McGuire, auditioned to sing the national anthem at the opening of the Orioles versus Phillies baseball game Sunday, March 3, at Ed Smith Stadium. The students will represent Booker at the sold-out game.
Madeline hopes to one day be a mathematician or heart surgeon.
"Being a heart surgeon means you save people's lives," Madeline says. "If you are good at math you are usually good at everything." — Yaryna Klimchak

OnIslam.net is an independent website that emerged out of an initiative by the team that created and run IslamOnline.net for the past 10 years, after the idea had been embraced by a group of people with experience in the field of civil society work in
The two editorially-independent editions of OnIslam.net, in English and in Arabic, cover Islam as a religion for all aspects of life, and Muslims as international citizens. We ascribe to the values of Islam as a comprehensive value system that has many things in common with values held by the wider human society.
OnIslam.net holds no bias towards particular persons or bodies, be they political affiliated, governmental, popular, doctrinal, or other. We believe that accepting diversity and differences enriches people's experiences and reject seclusion and stagnation.
OnIslam.net also adheres to credibility, which means that we will pay close attention to professional conduct, scientific accuracy, and accurate reporting. In the meantime, we stress the shared civilizational, social, and human responsibility.
OnIslam.net provides social and life counseling services through professional counselors who specialize in different fields of religion, society, family, development, health, and education. We also present relevant training courses to those who need them.
The message communicated through OnIslam.net is not theoretical, but is developed through pragmatism and practicality, which means a focus on the need to offer people useful knowledge and education and to teach them beneficial values and skills. This website aims to cater to people's needs and provide answers to their questions with the aim of achieving sustainable development.
Both English and Arabic editions of OnIslam.net contain five key components that arise from the comprehensive roles of the institution. These five components are:
1- News: This provides information and news reports about important events concerning the world in general and Muslims in particular and the major issues that affect them, the most important of which are
2- Introducing Islam: This component is presented mainly through English website, under the name Reading Islam. This section serves as a reference for non-Muslims and new Muslims to learn about Islam in a simple and straightforward manner.
3- Human Development: This component is presented mainly through the Arabic website, under the name Namaa'. This section is intended to encourage production and human development by passing on different experiences and offering relevant training workshops.
4- Counseling: This component serves as a reference for Muslims on how their religion interacts with their daily lives. Three different services are provided that cover:
- Religion, which provides fatwas and how a Muslim can lead an interactive daily life.
- Society, which provides social counseling and discusses the social issues related to the Muslim family.
- Health and Science, which provides scientific consultations and advises with what is new in the spheres of science and health.
5- An Intellectual Component: This component is primarily meant to review and renew Islamic discourse and related practices with the aim of discussing it in a contemporary fashion that is still compatible with the roots of Islam. This component is also intended to pave the way for inter-faith dialogue and for probing the relationship between religion and life.

The hat trick of fail! Meet anyamarcos: Hello! First post from me. I just joined here, and honestly, I only joined because I HAD to share this wank with someone who would appreciate it. She's a living (supposedly), breathing (probably) illustration of the finer principles of LURK MOAR. fools_game enumerates her many sins: You post a wank report starting with "First wank, please be gentle" or something similar? FAIL. ghostmaster is similarly unimpressed by the overuse of passive-aggressive smiley faces. Frankly, no one cares what the actual wank is about. The few hardy souls who do click on the link discover an extra-special bonus dimension of fail: anyamarcos has provided the real first name, location, and other identifying information of the target of her ire. And apparently also reported his Internet Shenanigans to his parents. OR SO SHE SAYS. Mods delete the original otf_wank post, as well as the subsequent i_wank redux, a) for linking to personal info and b) because said target of said ire is still in high school, and so might be underage. anyamarcos says he's over 18, but then anyamarcos is demonstrably a dumbass, so draw your own conclusions. But all is not lost! Behold (with judicious editing):
The link has been removed from all the files, as well as the original wanker's (wankee's?) nickname. Please DO NOT repost this information here. It's for your own good.

My Program: Bernstein: Serenade after Plato's "Symposium"
Andriessen: De Staat
Cage: Cheap Imitation for orchestra
Satie: Socrate
The case for my program: Four very different 20th-century responses to the writings of a Greek philosopher who lived 2300 years before their time, but whose influence continues into our century. Bernstein's violin concerto is a tone poem on Plato's discussion of love, from which the term "Platonic love" is derived. Satie's cantata is an eerily calm and beautiful meditation on Socrates, as described by Plato. Cage's Cheap Imitation was indirectly influenced by Plato in that it is a remix of Socrate; in this program, Cage's wisps and strands of unanchored melody serve as the flickering shadows cast on the wall of Plato's metaphorical cave, revealing a distorted glimpse of Socrate. In Andriessen's De Staat, Plato's text describes the dangers of certain types of music; Andriessen writes "dangerous music" by bouncing music back and forth virtuosically between a divided orchestra, and by invoking the energy and fury of rock music, the "dangerous music" of Andriessen's time.

Key House Republican willing to drop EPA riders to reach agreement on spending bill
The House Republican in charge of the Environmental Protection Agency's budget said Thursday he would be willing to drop a rider blocking funding for the agency's climate regulations if the provision gets in the way of a compromise on a government-spending bill.
Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho), the chairman of the House Appropriation Committee's environment subcommittee, told The Hill Thursday that he'd support dropping the rider, along with a series of other riders that block funding for EPA regulations, if it prevents lawmakers from reaching a compromise on spending cuts.
"If we can reach a compromise on the number between the House and Senate and [the riders] become a problem, then they'll have to go because the number is the important thing," Simpson said in a short interview with The Hill in the Capitol.
"Would you sacrifice some of those riders for a CR that funded the government at a level that could pass both the House and the Senate? Yeah, you would," Simpson said.
The government spending bill passed by the House last month slashes EPA's budget by $3 billion and blocks funding for implementing the agency's proposed climate regulations until the end of the fiscal year, in September. But top Democrats in the Senate have railed against the riders included in the spending bill.
Simpson said there will be other opportunities to restrict EPA's ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. "There will be a lot of venues in which you can do that," he said.
Republicans are slated to introduce legislation on Thursday that would permanently eliminate EPA's authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.
But Simpson left open the opportunity that the rider blocking climate regulation could gain enough support to remain in the final version of the spending bill.
"Some of the riders might stay in because I think the majority of both the House and the Senate agrees with them," he said, specifically mentioning the climate rider.

The Doctor Who Experience is fully accessible for wheelchair users. Due to the venue evacuation policy, the number of wheelchair allowed in the building at any one time is limited. We therefore ask wheelchair users to inform the Box Office that they will be visiting in a wheelchair when they book their ticket to guarantee entry at your required time.
As the Doctor Who Experience is located on a private road, we would encourage visitors with a Blue Badge to use the designated bays available at the Norwegian Church or opposite the Drama Village.

To ensure the safety of all visitors, mobility scooters are not permitted within the Experience, but can be exchanged for a wheelchair on arrival.
We are happy to help our blind and partially sighted visitors, where possible with any special requirements they have. The venue is unable to accommodate guide dogs due to loud noises and floor movements, however we do offer free carer tickets.
Audio Description
We offer an Audio Description track for the walk-through adventure section of the Experience. The track is loaded onto portable devices, which are available for loan from the main ticket desk. A security deposit will be required. The audio description is a commentary providing information on the visual elements of the walk-through experience as it unfolds. It describes the sets, props, action happening on screen, and any visual references. If you will be requiring use of more than four devices in one group, we ask you to reserve the devices at least 48 hours in advance by informing us of the quantity you will require, and the day and time you will be visiting.
In the exhibition section, stewards will be available to assist with describing artefacts and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Visual Aids
Large print packs to accompany the artefact signage are available to borrow from the Box Office. Please make sure a member of staff is aware when you arrive at the Box Office, or inform us in advance of your visit.
The adventure section of the Experience will be led by a guide, so if you have any additional requirements there will be a member of staff to assist.
We are happy to help our deaf and hard of hearing visitors, where possible with any special requirements they have. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your assistance requirements in advance.
Induction Loops
We offer induction loops for the walk through adventure section of the Experience which people can tune their hearing aid into.

A security deposit will be required. If you will be requiring use of more than 4 devices in one group, we ask you to reserve the devices at least 48 hours in advance by informing us of the quantity you will require, and the day and time you will be visiting.
If you have specific questions in relation to getting round and enjoying the Experience, please contact us on the main contact number.

My family's started asking me what I want for Christmas. :-)
One thing that I think I'd like this year is a Japanese (?) pull saw. While I don't know much about them, I know (a) I see them mentioned here on the forum and (b) I don't have one. Any brand recommendations from you all? Amazon shows a bunch of different brands (Irwin, Tajima, Shark), and I don't know whether price is an indication of quality. Thanks!

Here is a link to my personal favorite. Very fine kerf, crosscuts _and_ rips equally well. Replacement blades are only 19 bucks. Saw is 45. Casey |
Here is a link that might be useful: Japanese Dovetail saw

I have three different sizes of Shark's saws. Happy with all of them. Which one(s) you want will depend upon what you want to do with them. I also have a very nice saw that I got at Lee Valley, but I've seen the same thing elsewhere |
Here is a link that might be useful: lee valley's saws
Hi Casey and bobsmyuncle, *thanks* for the recommendations! The price range is good, and I like the idea of replacement blades. Which one(s) you want will depend upon what you want to do with them. Aye, that's so true, isn't it? :-) While I don't have a specific project in mind, I recall reading an article in This Old House some time this year where they were fitting wainscoting or something against an existing window stool and apron, and mentioned using a "Japanese pull saw". For the life of me, I cannot find that article now in my TOH issues on my shelf. What I do remember is thinking "wow, that would be handy to have". And another advantage for me is that I find that I have more muscle power in the "pull" motion than the push motion. I'm a girl, oops, I mean woman. :-) For some reason, I can pull more easily than push. Thanks again for this! --Lee |
Just be aware that pull saws are much different than push saws. Other than the obvious change of motion, that is. Pull saws have blades much more flexible than push saws. The actual sawing is done more in a rhythm than for speed. That means the complete cut takes longer. I read an article about why the Japanese prefer pull to push action. They feel the acts of creation are as important, if not more so, than the creation itself. Pulling the saw brings the act inward to the soul and invests more personal effort into making something. I sometimes get frustrated when using a pull dovetail saw because the blade is more supple than the stronger push design blades. It helps to remember the spirituality of the reason for the design. |
Hi handymac, Wow, thanks for sharing that aspect about the article of why the Japanese prefer pull to push action. Really, truly thanks for that! For me personally, I cannot tell you what a huge help that is. Because in the last few years, I have been consciously trying to grow more spiritually, and now that you've given me that thought to keep in mind as I use these types of saws, I think it will help me have more success to achieve whatever goal is there in the moment :-) Thank you so much for sharing that! While I'm sure that I'm inadequately expressing myself here, because before I never connected spirituality with tools, your comments make me think about it in a new way, and I like that. --Lee |

Pull saws can be made thinner because the blade is in tension when used, so the blade needn't be made thick enough to resist the bending force that is brought against the push-cut saws. The thinner kerf is removing less material, therefore the effort is less. Pull saws are therefore the more efficient cutting tools because they obtain the same results with less energy expense.

Agree with Casey. I can trim off 1/16" off the end of a board with one of these. Can't do that with a western saw (well, at least _I_ can't) If I was only to get one, I'd go for the middle one I posted. I've marked "X" (crosscut) and "R" (rip) on the appropriate edges. Be aware the teeth are usually impulsed hardened. That means you can't resharpen them. It also means hitting something hard might chip a tooth or two off. You can spend really big bucks on these things. See link. I'd suggest going with a less expensive one and see how you like it. |

Steaming hot was an understatement for round 4 of the Maxxis British Motocross championship held at Milton Malsor this past weekend. Things got steamy in both classes throughout a action packed Sunday afternoon in Northamptonshire.
Josh Coppins was back as a wildcard entry which had the already tough MX1 class buzzing with excitement and Mel Pocock's unfortunate penalty for stopping in qualifying all added to the fun at round 4 of the Maxxis British Motocross championship.
Watch and see all the action right here.
