Here are questions related to Parade Float Ideas.
I need some ideas for a float that has a storybook theme. It is for a football team.
By Anita
I work for my local animal shelter and we need help figuring out how to decorate a Christmas parade float with the theme that is picked out and incorporating the dogs and cats. Our Christmas parade theme is "Shining the Light on Christmas". Any ideas on how we can make this float?

Ok, I've put a lot of thought into this one. It would take a bit of effort but would be totally the highlight of the parade. You would need 5 large pieces of plexi-glass, drill holes (about 1") all around it(at least 10 in each panel), you would need to make a box out of them (they would have to be melted together and of course would not have a bottom (it would fit over their decorated small cages that would be sitting on a "stage" under the plexi-glass. This would simulate a storefront and you could even make a storefront scene. Have children kneeling outside the "window" looking in at them and a few parents. decorate the float to simulate a street(something like you would see on a Norman Rockwell print) have a spot light shining down on the animals (simulate this with a streetlight or simply use a spotlight attached to your "storefront" use snow outside on the street.
Our local community has a parade in the summer with the theme "Everyone Is Family". Any ideas for a simple float? Thanks so much.

Use a flatbed trailer, put a carpet on it, dining room table, and create a scene of a family dinner. Use real people with dinner napkins tucked into their shirts, exaggerated hairdos, anything dramatic. Make a huge pot of big-gauge spaghetti, and show the Mom dishing up a big swinging blob of spaghetti (fake?) If you can use a generator, put it into a cabinet and set a TV on the cabinet with a movie in it of family scenes like 'Lassie'. You could do present-day or '50's. I guess you would not want to do a parody of the family, but instead celebrate genuine family good times.
I need a float idea for the Big Dog parade in Santa Barbara, CA in June. I am trying to incorporate two themes:
1) "Pets need dental work too" ( I do animal dentistry)
2) Recognizing Pet therapy dogs for our local hospice

A smile can brighten everyones day. Show a dog sharing his great smile with someone else who really needs one.
I work for a credit union and we have been invited to join a local parade. We're all searching for ideas to add to the float. We want the name of our company on the float and we want to involve the crowd. Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

By Donna07/15/2009
A few thoughts to kick start your imagination.
"A Day At The Beach" - white sand, palm trees, beach umbrella, sandcastles, beach towels, beach toys, beach ball, seashells
"Playground Fun" - grass, see-saw, swing, hula hoop, picinic blanket & basket, kite flying
"Playing Dress-Up" - gowns, wigs, hats, old high heels , make-up dresser with mirror and seat
Good Luck and have fun:)
I am building a float for a small town Christmas parade. I need ideas on what to use in my float. The theme of the parade is, "Keep Christ in Christmas".
By Heather from Atlanta, TX
By katrina11/13/2010
Jesus is the reason for the season; which means keep Christ in Christmas as He is the reason that Crhistmas is celebrated. Actually, the "retailers" and marketers were the ones who promoted Christmas and it was to make enormous revenue for themselves, and knowing how to "manipulate" the "masses" they try and make us feel "guilty" if we do not "buy buy buy";
To counter this: I try and give gifts throughout the year; and always ahead of "christmas" day!
And send Christmas cards out any time of the year; my family has gotten used to me!
I wanted to know if you have any suggestions on how to decorate a float with the main theme being "Going for the Gold" the focus of it is our area's national peanut festival.
By Renea from Dothan, AL
By Sheilah Link10/25/2010
A peanut standing on an Olympic award style platform with bread on one side and jelly on the other, each wearing a medal.
I need some ideas for a Christmas parade float. I work at a gym. Any suggestions?
Katie from McComb, Mississippi
By Tripleb (Guest Post)10/14/2005
Santa jumping rope or pumping iron w/some free weights comes to mind. Put some members in some reindeer - or better yet snowmen (cause they are round and plump) garb and have them exercising or pushing the sleigh........some could still be plump and some could be slim and encouraging on the rotund ones.
Does anyone have ideas for building a parade float with a drug free theme?
By Cindi from Pittsburgh, PA
I am looking for ideas for a small town parade float with the theme "Old Values New Ideas" for a veterinarian clinic.
By michael72501 from WY
By Mary Ross06/30/2009
For the old values, new ideas you might have some older animals that are up for adoption. Many people reject older animals as an option when looking for pets. If you have any geriatric patients, have them on board or walking around the float. If you have a behaviorist, show that old dogs can indeed learn new tricks.
I work in a hotel and we are hosting Santa. We need to design a float for a parade to take him to our local mall where he will be until Christmas. Any ideas?
By Sara
By pam munro11/04/2011
When my husband & I play Santa & Mrs. Claus we sometimes make our entrance in a horse & carriage (it's there for rides for the kids). So I would suggest getting a carriage! If there is no horse, perhaps you could get a group of people dressed as elves to pull it! Or Santa in a wheelbarrow or some sort of golf cart that's decorated? A Segway? You get the idea...
Need float ideas! The nursing home where I work is participating in a community parade. The theme is "Doing for the Community". Any ideas?
Katie from Green Valley, AZ
By cristy (Guest Post)09/03/2007
You could do like half of the float " if the community citizens didn't help" make it ugly and have actors being mean ect. Then the other half "if the community's citizens did help" and make it really nice with some actors pretending to help each other with something.
I am looking for ideas for a Christmas float for a new cub scout troop. It needs to be inexpensive.
By Vickie from Bremen, KY
I need some ideas for a western pioneer parade float. Help please.
By Char from WY
We are having our annual Christmas parade and the theme is based on the lake where we live. The theme is Lake Cumberland Christmas. We have a bass boat and truck we want to incorporate into the parade, but are stuck on what to do. Can someone help? Thank you so much!

We made a pirate ship out of a fishing boat on a trailer. We used wide black cloth from home depot meant for blocking weeds under garden dirt. then got some float suppies and made sparkling waves on the side. Painted pvc pipe brown and made masts. had a pirate ship steering wheel, used more black cloth for tied up sails. put kids in as captain hook, peter pan, wendy , mermaids etc. You can figure anyway to tie it in, instead of "Pirates of the Caribbean" it could be "pirates of the ....." "sailing over ...." or "....is our never, never land"
Our area private school just started a football team this past season. We would like to let the boys and the cheerleaders ride in the parade. I need a good idea for a float to incorporate the football players and the cheerleaders. Any ideas?
By Jodi
I am looking for float ideas for a veterinary practice, the theme is " All I want For Christmas". Thank you.
By E.F
By Vivian P.11/08/2011
"All I Want For Christmas is my two front teeth!" You could focus on the dental services and have big poster board depictions of cartoon animals flashing their whitey teeth.
Any ideas for a parade float for a veterinary hospital with the theme "Honoring Those Who Serve"? Thanks.
By ValNR from NY
By ValNR07/18/2011
I recently read an article on a website about adopting out retired K9 army dogs. We are thinking right now maybe incorporate them, plus other service animals (seizure dogs/cats, seeing eye dogs, search and rescue, canine good citizen) and decorating the float to look like a dog.

Researchers say find Google Wallet security risk
- Tweet
- Share this
NEW YORK Feb 10 (Reuters) - Security researchers say they have found a vulnerability in the Google Inc mobile payments platform which is currently available in phones sold by Sprint Nextel Corp.
Mobile payment services that allow consumers to pay by waving their phone at a check-out terminal instead of using a credit card have long been available in Japan and some other countries but are only just emerging in the United States.
Isis, a venture of Verizon Wireless, AT&T Inc and T-Mobile USA, is expected to launch an offering to compete with Google but has yet to announce a launch date.
The alleged vulnerability in the Google Wallet was identified by Joshua Rubin, a senior engineer with zvelo, a private Greenwood Village, Colorado, security firm.
Rubin developed an app dubbed Wallet Cracker that he says can break the four-digit PIN required to launch the Google Wallet app. He demonstrated how it works in a video on his blog ()
Rubin said that he had disclosed his findings to Google and that the company "was able to confirm the issue and agreed to work quickly to resolve it."
However, Google declined immediate comment to Reuters except to say that it would have a response before long. Sprint representatives were not immediately available for comment.
Google's Wallet partners also include Citigroup Inc and payment network MasterCard.
Jimmy Shah, a security researcher for security software specialist McAfee, said on Friday that the vulnerability did not appear to be a very easy one to exploit.
But he said it was theoretically possible if a hacker was able to physically steal a user's phone.
Shah said that a hacker would need time to install the Cracker app and to install another piece of malware to disable the phone's security system before being able to run the Cracker app to retrieve the PIN number.
The hacker would also still need the phone itself in order to be able to make payments using the stolen Google Wallet.
"It's a nice theoretical attack but it's not a very simple attack," Shah told Reuters.
McAfee is owned by chipmaker Intel Corp.

UFC 154 Results: 4 Reasons GSP vs. Condit Exceeded Expectations
By Matthew Ryder ,
Most people didn't know what to expect when Georges St-Pierre returned to the cage to unify welterweight titles with Carlos Condit.
What they got was an utter barnburner—the most exciting St-Pierre fight since he dismantled Jon Fitch in 2008, and a main event that ranks as one of the better that the UFC has provided the fans in Montreal since breaching the market there.
Here are some reasons why that was possible.
In MMA, gameness is a true virtue. There's no tangible way to measure it, it doesn't show up on the pre-fight medical or in the tale of the tape before a fight, and most people don't understand it even when they think they do.
Carlos Condit is gameness. He's the dog that loves the fight, the man who smiles at his own blood on the cage floor and who fearlessly takes punishment in the hope that he might dish some out.
He stood with St-Pierre and traded with him; hurt him on occasion, sometimes badly. He was tireless off his back, constantly working for submissions. He was unbroken after five rounds with the best welterweight to ever live, a man beaten only by the decision of judges, and not by the beating he took at the hands of GSP.
Without that intangible, this fight is a yawner and it's over early.
Say what you will about Georges St-Pierre—good and bad—he's earned it all. However, on Saturday night in Montreal, he came to fight. He came to fight like he did before image mattered to him.
He engaged Condit on the feet with relative reckless abandon, only used his crushing top game when he absolutely had to and left the cage looking like a man who escaped a car wreck.
If this is the GSP that fans can look forward to in the future, there's no question that he'll win back fans that have strayed, and he'll definitely see that streak of decision wins come to an end in the near future.
When you lose the biggest name in the sport for over a year, even the haters miss him. There are only a handful of true stars in the UFC, guys that transcend the sport and earn mainstream attention all over the world.
Actually, if you take away Anderson Silva's popularity in Brazil, there's really only one. It's St-Pierre.
Whether you love the guy or can't stand him, the fact is that there was an electricity in the air for his return and it made his fight with Condit all the more special.
Some people love the idea of Silva being cageside, getting his own isocam during the main event and being the topic of conversation almost constantly—before, during and after the event.
Don't count me in that group, but the people are out there.
GSP's performance on its own was fun to behold, and Condit gave him everything you could ask of a challenger. However, the fact that the best man to ever fight at 170 pounds did enough to win and set up a fight with the best man to ever fight at 185 pounds added a lot to this one.

Slow lift day and/or make up day. If your shoulders are hammered do a Westside lift and enjoy the options. Those of you who take a rest day during the week should be okay; just don't push it.
Weighted pull-ups 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps
F-o-o-d L-o-g. It may not be pretty but it needs to be a habit. Nothing elaborate though; if you find it helps to keep the small details and weights, fantastic. Even the basic info is good. You will get an eye for where problem areas are emerging.

Learning to love cork in the Alentejo
For the background to this Alentejo trip, see The Alentejo on a plate . See also Richard's article on the cork empire and the accompanying video on how corks are made.
You don't notice them at first. Quiet hoary smudges on that wide horizon – always there but almost lost in the wideness of it all. It was the violent slash of blood red that caught my eye. A number painted by each one. This, I found out, was a cork tree – Quercus suber – that had recently been harvested. The number indicated the last year the tree had been stripped: '9' = 2009; the bloodier the red, the more recent the harvest. (The...

7 360 friends?!?! I only have one, 75 laps!?!?! I dont want to tire myself out Why not just do the hire a driver in single player and get the 60,000 bonus after he takes 95% profit
wow here's an idea, how about each of you guys that posted about this add each other and you'll have more friends
Yeah, very lame. I don't have any friends that play this game nor do I want to race the same lap 75 times. This seems like a chore more than an exploit or a cheat you have to work hard at to get.

Technical Trading Systems, Part 1: Trading System Overview
First Quarter 2014
Regular readers of Computerized Investing are undoubtedly aware of the 60 or so stock screens that AAII tracks on its website. These stock screens are based on quantitative rules applied to the universe of stocks in AAII's Stock Investor Pro fundamental stock screening and research database program. There are several benefits of using a regimented fundamental stock screening approach to select stocks. First, it helps to remove emotion from the investment process. Second, it saves time, as with the click of a button you can instantaneously winnow down the investable stock universe from many thousands to, perhaps, only a dozen or two.
On the opposite end of the spectrum from fundamental analysis is technical analysis. This type of analysis focuses on price and volume behavior for an underlying security. Unlike fundamental analysis—which assumes that factors such as earnings and dividend growth, balance sheet strength and other fundamental elements impact a stock's price—technical analysis is based on the premise that most, if not all, of the information regarding the underlying asset is captured in the price.
By analyzing trends in the price and volume over time, short-term investors and traders identify patterns and trends that they use to predict future price movements. Just as with fundamental stock screens, technicians develop "trading systems" to identify when to buy and sell stocks, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), or other securities. However, where fundamental screening focuses on elements such as ratios, multiples and growth rates, technical systems rely on "indicators" that are mathematical manipulations of price and volume data.

Alfredo Amezaga is going to be with the Hammerheads for his rehab.
Amezaga, the Marlins all-purpose player, will be in the Hammerheads lineup Thursday, Friday and Saturday against Palm Beach at Roger Dean Stadium. He will play one game at second base, one in centerfield and one at shortstop. If all goes well, he could rejoin the Marlins in time for Sunday's weekend series finale against the Mets. I was betting that he would've done the extended spring training thing, however, this is great news for the players on the Hammerheads. For you see, Alfredo has to, do to tradition, buy the post-game spread. The Hammerheads don't have to go to Checkers after the game. Nope, a "glorious meal" will be provided courtesy of Amezaga. Hopefully, Andy Gonzalez will get to see some action very soon, 'cause I'm guessing he will be the odd man out when Alfredo returns.

Fuse Lounge whets appetites with small plates while wetting whistles with signature drinks in a swanky, contemporary setting. Kick off a night of human watching over a tower of steak and portabella mushrooms ($12) or Cajun filet tips ($11) from the bar menu before moving on to a beer ($3+), a glass of wine ($7+), or one of Fuse's signature cocktails. The sassy array of signature libations includes the raspberry truffle, the Skinny Dip, and the titular Fuse martini, among other cheekily named concoctions ($10).
In addition to his NASM certification, Jungle Gym Fitness Studio's owner Jason Schaefer spent six years as the official trainer for Automotion, the Detroit Pistons dance team, helping him helm a gym where patrons can work out and express creativity in innovative classes. The bare-bones studio hosts indoor and outdoor boot camps as well as nightclub-inspired dance and boxing aerobics courses. Class sizes are limited to about 20 students to ensure each student gets ample attention and personalized technique tips. Along with group classes, instructors lend nutritional advice and assist patrons in training for races and sports-specific goals such as improving golf swings and preventing wrist injuries in ping-pong marathons.
Though renowned for its vast humidors of primo cigars, The Godfather Cigar & Martini Lounge's professional bartenders also pour elegant, tasty martinis and one-of-a-kind house drinks that mirror the atmospheric "power broker's clubhouse" vibe. Sink into a plush leather couch in the Lamborghini Room or its softly lit cousin, the Don Room, and savor the alcoholic alchemy of The Gotti—a blend of Ketel One and olive juice garnished with blue-cheese olives and jalapeño ($9). The Godfather's mélange of Glenlivet, Cointreau, and blood-orange bitters will remind film buffs of the way oranges always presaged a lavish musical number in The Godfather films ($11). The coconut martini brings back happy memories of unplanned desert-island vacations with its coconut-rimmed pool of coconut rum, RumChata, coconut water, and lime ($9). And for those celebrating a friend's birthday, the peach bellini renders its peach nectar more toastable with an effervescent topper of champagne ($9).
Steiny's Tavern honors barstool regulars with a rewards program replete with a special beer mug and VIP access to bar events—the first hint that Steiny's is as much a community hub as it is a casual watering hole. In addition to honoring their regulars, owners Mama and Papa Bear Steinhurst have outfitted their parking lot with 20 bike parking spaces and furnish smokers with a heated outdoor smoking patio. The duo welcomes local bands and DJs many nights of the week and also shows sports broadcasts on 10 flat-screen TVs. A menu of barbecue specialties, salads, and sandwiches greets each diner, as does a friendly wait staff that encourages customers to chew every bite the recommended 32 times before swallowing.

I was just thinking and I don't want to shell out the 300 plus bones for a tek light t5 4 bulb lamp 20,000 lumens. so I decided to use 2 four ft. shop lamps 12,000 lumens and 2 55 watt cfl's 6000 lumens. only 2,00 less lumens for a far greater value. If you check around you can find the shop lights on sale and spend around 70 bones for lighting instead of 300 plus for the t 5's.

Sources connected to "Jersey Shore" tell TMZ there will be a big change in Season 2 -- no more grenades.
For those of you who think a grenade is either a weapon or small country in the Caribbean, it's actually an ugly chick who tags along with her hot friend. In Season 1, The Situation typically scored the hot chick, while Pauly D had to fall on the grenade.
We're told only hot chicks get to go back to the house in Miami -- such an honor.
some of their one liners are quite comical i must say. the show is train wreck however some of the crap they say and do is just pure comedy! I love it!
PARTY MUCH??? WOW... these kids look worn and torn!!! It'd be even worse if they didn't fake & bake and roid it up. Damn... self-destruction at it's best and all in the name of entertainment. Ladies... look at yourselves... such hollow-eyes!!! And do you guys know what you're doin to yourselves??? Ever heard of Lyle Alzado??? If not... look him up. Dude was chiseled till the roids destroyed him piece by piece. One other thing... I'm thinking there's a crack pipe or two being passed around... y'all got them "far-away eyes".... "well you know what I'm talkin' about"... right Mick???
These losers don't know they are a joke, they take this show seriously. The walk around Miami like they are real stars, their 15 minutes is already up.
I have a very reliable source that is very close to this show. She has informed me that all of the guys on this show are actually gay in real life. They were all unemployed actors before the series and were selected by the producers for legal reasons to limit the networks liability for any harassment issues that may occur between the male and female participants.
@ #6..You're an idiot actually..The average adult male height is 5'9'' actually..anything 5'10''-6'0'' is considered above average in height and 6'0'' is actually considered "tall" to most people. Try reading a book every now and then..These guys are average or slightly above average in height.
for> 4:08AM on Apr 9th 2010 by David
Beyond #6's prejudice, probably what he meant was that their stature is diminished because they are so desperate to come off as stylishly cool. They achieve the opposite. No harm, they're just laughable and embarrassing.
What a bunch of A@@holes. How disrespectful of women. You are all too wrapped up in yourselves. I will never watch your program but I will notify the sponsors of your program of your views.
They already have the 4 Grenades on the show and at the house!! And they are the ones in the front in the above pic! Nasty!!!!!
you people bashing on these guys are just jealous and need to get a life, serious... you really think they CARE about what you say about them? LOL, no
don't like the show, then DON"T WATCH or read articles about them
problem solved.
WTF!! Whose gives a crap about this show. MTV should dump this crap. I know some from Jersey, and they said this show is an insult to them. Even Jon Bon Jovi said that they don't represent the true "Jersey".

In a world of dual-core superphones, there is still one single-core device that manages to stand its ground: the Samsung Nexus S. Thanks to its stock Android nature, the Nexus S is still one of the best Android phones on the market, and if you're looking to pick one up off-contract, then here's the deal for you. You can grab an unlocked version of the NS for a mere $350 -- that's fifty-percent off the retail price.
In a move that feels oddly reminiscent of Verizon announcing the iPhone (read: announcing a nearly year old device), AT&T just told the world that it would be getting the Samsung Nexus S, which is immediately available for pre-order from Best Buy for $99 with a two-year agreement.
This version of the Nexus S is lacking HSPA+, which makes it exactly like the T-Mobile version that landed in December of last year.
Well, well, well - looks like there was more to yesterday's Nexus S GRJ90 leak than originally met the eye. Though the update doesn't contain many changes, the bigwigs at Mountain View apparently deemed it substantial enough to warrant a new version number: 2.3.5.
Again, the update includes:
- Fixes for the Nexus S 4G's signal reception issues
- A 4G settings widget for the Nexus S 4G
- TTY (teletypewriter) support
- NI push support
- The NFC secure element, which is critical to Google Wallet
So there you have it - assuming that Droid Life's sources are credible (and given the blog's track record, I'd say they are), you'll be able to refer to the update that should be hitting your Nexus S 4G next Monday not only as GRJ90, but also as Android 2.3.5.
While NFC has yet to be widely adopted in smartphones, that didn't stop Google from sneaking it in to the Google+ app. This mean that, when using an NFC-enabled device (read: the Nexus S/4G), you'll be able to read tags and share the contents via Google+. The functionality is quite limited right now, but this could bring big things in the future: automatically check in at a restaurant and share it with your Circles, scan tags to join a Huddle, easily find location-based relevant Sparks...
We just stumbled across a new game by Google to promote the Nexus S called Nexus Contraptions - on YouTube of all places. In this game, it's your job to navigate bouncing balls of Google Apps around various obstacles and into a funnel that ultimately leads into a Nexus S.
Hmmm, I wonder what you win if you get the fastest time?
I'll admit, I only played around with it for a few minutes, so I didn't get very far - but I can already tell that the levels actually get quite difficult and require some planning to successfully complete!
When the new Google Talk with voice and video calling was launched, those of you on T-Mobile who wanted to place calls on 3G quickly found out that it wasn't at all possible. Rather than connecting you to your dog for an afternoon chat, the application stubbornly insisted on only operating through a Wi-Fi connection. At Google I/O 2011, I was able to dig up some more technical details surrounding this limitation, even further upsetting hopeful customers.
So, you bought that fancy new Nexus S/DROID Charge/Galaxy S II/G2X/Flyer with a front-facing camera, and you were excited to make video calls. Then you noticed there isn't any native video chat client for Android (yet - Talk will have this integrated soon). Then you heard about fring, which is pretty cool. Then you tried to install it, only to discover it didn't work. Then you probably had a sad.

Laser Cutter
From Ace Monster Toys Wiki
aka Smaug
Ace Monster Toys has an EXLAS 1280 laser.
This page will detail laser usage and operation, tips and tricks, etc. once we have it set up in the space.
Please don't touch or fiddle with the laser cutter unless you have been trained.
Laser cutter is currently operational.
See the mailing list for further discussion
Moved the details of purchasing to their own page.
Old page about cleaning junk out of the space
Please make a reservation if you absolutely need to use the cutter at a certain time.
Usage Cost / Fee Structure
We charge by the minute based on the actual time the laser is firing.
Costs are as follows:
- General Public: $1/min*
- AMT Members: $.50/min
- Initial Laser Investors: $.25/min (or a kiss for albillings per minute (five minutes if it's on the lips))
Once the laser is completely paid for, the entire cost structure will be reexamined in order to charge cost+maintenance for laser operation.
- = The charge for the public does not include time helping them set up runs, models, etc. This is purely cut time assuming things are ready to go already and the person just needs to cut stuff. Any other help needs to be negotiated with willing parties.
PDF manuals for laser cutter and software:
- File:Laser Manual1280.pdf - Manual for EXLAS 1280 laser.
- File:Lasercut5.3 Manual.pdf - Software manual for the laser cutting software LaserCut 5.3 which is included with XYZ-Tech's machines
- File:MPC6515 Manual.pdf - Manual for MPC6515, the laser motherboard (technical info, not needed for general usage of the laser)
Safety information and training
We should have a bunch of helpful information here on safe operation of the device and who to go to to be trained on its use here.
- Please speak to one of the people who is experienced with this laser cutter before using it so we can show you where everything is, how to setup the software, how to use it without breaking it, basic safety tips, etc.
- Read the instructions first.
- Never operate the laser cutter unattended because sometimes things catch fire. A squirt bottle with water is kept next to the laser to put out small fires. A fire extinguisher is in the corner of the room for larger issues.
- If little flames shoot up off of your material, turn down the power. Little flames can start fires and will fog up the lens, which is difficult to clean.
- It is easy to make the laser head bang against the side or top of the unit. This causes an awful noise and must be very bad for the gears. If the laser cutter makes a banging noise, stop it immediately and reposition the laser head before the next cut, or resize the artwork.
- Do not cut plastics which create hazardous fumes when burned. Acrylic is ok. PVC and vinyl releases the very toxic gas phosgene when heated. As a general rule, chemical resistant plastics should not be put in the laser cutter.
- Be very careful with the silver honeycomb, especially when removing it from the machine to clean little bits of debris off of it. It bends very easily and once bent can not be straightened out completely. It is mostly a cosmetic issue, but pressing your thumb in the wrong place will cause permanent marks (marks in your skin, not in the honeycomb. beware.)
- Do not laser materials that make an excessive amount of smoke. A little smoke is ok, but a large amount can fog up the lens. If it is making a lot of smoke, use more passes at a lower power.
- When cutting paper, turn down the power as low as possible (5-10%, if the power is TOO low, it wont be strong enough to even fire the laser), and the speed as high as possible (400 when in Cut mode)
Things that can / cannot be lasered
See the full list here. If any of the banned items are knowingly and purposefully put into the laser, you will be banned from its use (and possibly AMT) for being a danger to yourself and others. The outgassing or fire can kill people.
- Before putting your material into the laser cutter, test your image on paper. If you don't test on paper first you will ruin a lot of the material you are cutting. Once it looks good on paper you can place your material on the paper so you know it is positioned properly, and refocus if the material is thick.
- When engraving raster images, they go much faster if you use a lower DPI. Experiment to find the lowest DPI that still looks good while providing a good mix of speed. Generally using a scan gap much smaller than the actual spot size of the laser is a waste of time.

Cleaning the Laser Cutter
Usable Work Area
1200mm x 800mm (47.24in x 31.49in)
Please note this is the travel size for the head. The physical workbed is approximately 50mm larger in both X and Y directions.
Software to prepare designs to laser
Inkscape can be used to convert various vector file types (SVG, PDF, etc) into DXF, with the Inkscape DXF export plugin listed below.
Quick tutorial on exporting files from inkscape as dxf:
- start inkscape, open some vector file
- ctrl+a, ctrl-shift-G a bunch of times (break objects out of groups),
- ctrl+a, then ctrl-shift-C (convert objects to paths)
- Delete any shapes you don't want, tweak things if needed. Go to Object->Fill and Stroke. Click 'X' under the Fill tab. Click 'solid color' under the stroke paint tab. Change width to something small (1 mm for example) in the stroke style tab. This will give a more accurate idea of the laser output (the laser can't cut thick lines)
- file->save as->Desktop Cutting Plotter (*.dxf)
If it doesn't import correctly into LaserCut, try this:
- select all the shapes in InkScape that you want (don't use ctrl+a)
- cut them (ctrl-x)
- new document (ctrl-n)
- paste (ctrl-v)
- save it out again
Dunno why, but that solved a problem for me once.
note: linux didn't import .pdf files from box-maker. There is a command line program you can use called pdf2svg that worked for me. (ubuntu: sudo apt-get install pdf2svg)
If you are on a Mac with Lion or Mountain Lion, you may encounter a dialog in Inkscape when trying to export as DXF, saying there isn't a problem but you should install something (lxml). This actually is a problem, but installing lxml doesn't solve it. Instead, add one line to a file in your Inkscape install as described in this link: http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=12478#p46872. This should allow you to export DXF files successfully. In case that link goes away, I'm copying it here.
Can export DXF files with a plugin (see below)
Good for converting bitmaps. Use curves or levels to make the image super light, then convert to an indexed 1-bit palette (black & white), then save as BMP
Adobe Illustrator
If you are so unlucky as to have to use this piece of rubbish software, here are some tips form our members that have used it to make lasercut designs. The tips are somewhat general, and may apply to any 2D vector design program you may be using:
- Make a copy of your file… Cause you are about to make your art way less editable
- In preferences convert the whole thing to millimeters including type and strokes
- outline all your text
- Lines only no fills - .1mm (.005 in) stroke weight
- Un-group all your stuff… I don't know why, but it seems to junk up the file.
- Remove all the unused layers, guides and and stuff your aren't doing something with.
- Remove any overlapped or double lines if any of your art has shared cut lines. Only keep one. Sometimes it can help to use the "clean up" and/or "simplify" functions.
- Get the total dimensions of your art… you will need it later. Select all, look at the measurements and write that down.
- If you are mixing cutting and other stuff put them on layers with names. Example: Cut, engrave, score, null, etc.
- To engrave, Make a copy of the art and raster it. If you do not dither it to 1-bit black/white, the laser software will for you. Black = laser fires, white = laser doesn't fire. Grey = will get dithered to a pattern of white and black dots to approximate partial lasering.
- Export Settings: dxf
- Autocad version = 2000/LT200 OR 2004/2005/2006 (I am still not sure)
- Artwork Scale 1mm = 1mm
- number of colors = (depends on your work… engraving or cutting)
- Raster file format = PNG
- Options = Alter paths for Appearance, Outline text (in case you forgot)
From Crafty regarding how to make sure Illustrator units are reflected on your lasercut piece:
I use an in art "measuring stick" as the unit conversion on out software is not reliable depending on the version of illustrator you are exporting from. I using the flowing low tech technique to quicky and reliably resize my art and have very good resultsI have very specific reasons for using that order of operation and can explain to anybody who wants to chit chat about. c/Rachel
- Drop a 1200mm x 800mm box around the art
- Import the art and select Draw> Resize > Choose 1200 x 800
- Move the art to the "laser bed" on the software
- Delete the box you used to size it
- Proceed with all the other art clean up steps
In Photoshop, the Gold Method Script works very well for preparing photos for engraving. After applying the script to your liking, to save the file for the laser software, make sure your Image > Mode is set to Bitmap, then Save As type BMP, setting depth as 1-bit.

The best thing about being an entrepreneur, according to website developer Abhinav Dhillon of Edmonton, is the validation.
If you need a good reason to visit Britain this spring - something more substantial, say, than the lure of acres of red poppies in full bloom, the romantic scent of century-old wisteria entwining stately manor houses, or the hope of catching sight of Hugh Grant pushing a pram or three - then get ready to book passage because your moment has come. There are several good reasons, both historic and cultural, to cross the Atlantic in the next few months - you might even get a ticket to the shortened London run of a new musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Crossing the Atlantic used to conjure up images of steamer trunks, movie stars dressed to the nines and silver trays loaded with decadent goodies. Transatlantic flights, especially the advent of jet travel in the late '50s, took some of the romance out of Atlantic cruise crossings.
A trip sampling the diversity of southeast Asian destinations can take you from the sleek modernity of Singapore to the ancient temples of Cambodia's Angkor Wat. And then there are the beaches of Thailand: relaxing, beautiful and, for the adventurous spring breaker, a lot more exotic than Miami.

The vicious slashing spree that killed 29 people in a southern city was the work of separatists linked to international terrorism, China has said, but the assailants' homespun methods and low-tech weapons - they used nothing more than long knives - have led some analysts to suspect they didn't get outside help.

Not too long ago Roddy Doyle climbed up to the attic in his Dublin home, turned on the lights and went to the trunks where his records were stored. Then he carried them downstairs to "the front room" of his house, a room that had become a receptacle for bicycles and junk. He wanted to listen to records again, slide them from their sleeves, run the duster over them, drop a needle and hear the crackle and fuzz of the tracks.

Catholicate Centenary Celebration
The year 2012 is a blessed year for the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, as it is the year for the centenary celebration commemorating the establishment of the Catholicate in India. It is a rare opportunity and blessing for all the members of the Church to partake in this milestone.
The Northeast American Diocese of the Malankara Orthodox Church conducted the centenary celebration on September 09, 2012 under the leadership and guidance of His Grace Zachariah Mar Nicholovos, the Metropolitan of the Northeast American Diocese. The program was held at 5:00 PM at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, 3 Executive Blvd., Suffern, NY 10901.
His Holiness Moran Mar Baselios Mar Thoma Paulose II, Catholicos of the East and Malankara Metropolitan was the Chief Guest for this occasion, along with presence of other Hierarchs, Clergies of the Orthodox Church community and other political leaders.
The St.Tikhons Orthodox Theological Seminary was invited to the program and it was a blessing for the Dean of the seminary, V.Rev. Fr. Alexander Atty to attend the event.

On-air challenge: You're given the three-word names of famous people. For each one, you get a clue to a familiar three-word phrase or title that has the same initials as the person. Name the phrase or title. For example, singer Billy Ray Cyrus has the initials B-R-C. And B-R-C are also the initials of the phrase "Blue ribbon commission."

It's Weekends on ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Rebecca Sheir. We go to the latest now out of San Francisco. An Asiana Airlines flight from Seoul, South Korea crashed there earlier today. Two people are confirmed dead, several are injured. NPR's Richard Gonzales joins us now from San Francisco with the latest. Now, Richard, let's start with casualties. What do we know at this point?
It's WEEKENDS on ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News, I'm Rebecca Sheir. More now on the breaking news out of San Francisco. That's where an Asiana Airlines flight from Seoul, South Korea, crashed earlier today.
Reporter Molly Samuel is with our member station KQED, and she joins us from the San Francisco General Hospital. And I understand there was just a press conference there. So, Molly, what do we know now?

The bands Phish and Insane Clown Posse have spawned some of the most rabid fans in music history. Their world of obsession is not an easy one to break into, but on a warm December night in Miami back in 2009, pop culture writer Nathan Rabin went to see a concert that would inspire him to enter the orbit of these infamous groupies.
He wrote a book about them, You Don't Know Me But You Don't Like Me, and tells weekends on All Things Considered guest host Rebecca Sheir about his first-hand look at the two often-reviled sub-cultures.
When Joel Harlow started his career, he was perfectly happy sleeping on the floor — as long as he was making monsters. He was doing what he always wanted: working as a makeup artist.
Years later, Harlow is no longer using peanut butter for monster touch-ups (yes, that happened). He's worked with actor Johnny Depp on about a dozen films with some rather makeup-heavy characters.
Everything about the New York City mayor's race is supersized.
No less than a dozen candidates are vying to succeed Michael Bloomberg as leader of the nation's biggest city — five Republicans and seven Democrats. The candidates have appeared at more than 100 forums and debates, and the primary is still two months away.
Observers say that the crowded field could favor big personalities.

The man once hailed as the "Salvador Dali of the kitchen" is getting his own art exhibit.
Ferran Adrià might not be a household name, but for nearly three decades, as chef and mastermind of the acclaimed Catalan Spanish restaurant El Bulli, he moussed, foamed and otherwise re-imagined cuisine in modernist ways that have inspired many of the world's top chefs.

Two people died Saturday in the crash-landing at San Francisco International Airport of Asiana Airlines Flight 214 from Seoul, South Korea, San Francisco's fire chief says.
Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White says everyone who had been on board the flight is accounted for.
National Transportation Safety Board chairwoman Debbie Hersman said investigators were being deployed to the scene.
"Obviously, we have a lot of work to do," she said, noting that it was too early to tell what had caused the crash.

The office of the interim Egyptian president is now backtracking on reports of the appointment of Mohamed ElBaradei as prime minister. NPR's Leila Fadel reports this comes "after the second-largest Islamist party in Egypt [Salfi el-Nour], which has so far been on board with the military coup, reportedly rejected the appointment."
Fresh Air Weekend highlights some of the best interviews and reviews from past weeks, and new program elements specially paced for weekends. Our weekend show emphasizes interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts. This week:
Marion Bartoli of France won the women's singles title at Wimbledon on Saturday, defeating Germany's Sabine Lisicki in straight sets, 6-1, 6-4.
It's Bartoli's first "Grand Slam" title.
Sports Illustrated was posting "live analysis" through the match. At the end, it wrote that:

Filmmaker and artist Miranda July is blasting emails copied from the outboxes of some well-known names on intimate topics to anyone who signs up.
The project is called We Think Alone, and includes messages sent from a range of notable people (who agreed to participate in advance, of course). Those names include the NBA's all-time leading scorer Kareem Abdul Jabar, fashion-designing siblings Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte, and a Canadian-American theoretical physicist.

When novelist Mario Alberto Zambrano was a little boy, his imagination was piqued by a colorful deck of cards. Loteria is a Mexican game that's a lot like bingo, if bingo was full of vivid imagery. Instead of announcing numbers, the dealer turns over illustrated cards while calling out a riddle that corresponds with the picture — a spider, a rooster, a mermaid, a bottle.
Zambrano tells NPR's Linda Wertheimer that he used to wonder if those pictures were significant.
This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Linda Wertheimer.
The economy added 195,000 jobs in June. That was a surprise and a delight to both economists and Wall Street. But the unemployment rate was stuck at 7.6 percent.
NPR's Sonari Glinton reports that the economic recovery continues at a slow but steady pace.
The Roman Catholic Church will soon have two new saints - two saintly popes: John XXIII and John Paul II.
Church watchers are pondering what the elevation of these two men says about the current pope, Francis, and his priorities. Those church watchers include John Allen, correspondent for the National Catholic Reporter. We called him yesterday.
John Allen, welcome.
JOHN ALLEN: Hello, there.
It's the final weekend of the Wimbledon tournament. Sabine Lisicki goes up against Marion Bartoli in the women's final on Saturday, and Andy Murray will take on Novak Djokavic on Sunday. Guest host Linda Wertheimer speaks with Howard Bryant of ESPN.com and ESPN The Magazine.
This Saturday morning, Egypt is cleaning up from clashes overnight between pro- and anti-Morsi demonstrators that killed at least 30 people. Guest host Linda Wertheimer talks with NPR's Leila Fadel and Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson in Cairo about this week's developments and reflect on the changes that have taken place there in the year since now-deposed President Mohammed Morsi was elected.

Defense manufacturers worldwide are facing tough times ahead, as tight budgets force Western governments to cut spending. But while the West is cutting back, developing countries around the world are spending more on defense — a lot more.
Last fall, defense contractors warned of massive layoffs if the U.S. government enacted the automatic budget cuts known as sequestration. Now, sequestration is in effect, but job losses are limited, in part because many Pentagon contracts were already in place and will keep assembly lines rolling for much of this year.
One week ago, the Yarnell Hill Fire covered only a few hundred acres, burning in dense brush 85 miles northwest of Phoenix. Then last Sunday, it exploded. Powerful winds and dry fuel propelled the fire across thousands of acres in a matter of hours, engulfing 19 elite firefighters who were trying to keep it from reaching the nearby town of Yarnell.
Nearly 700 firefighters stepped in to battle the blaze after that. A week later, the fire is nearly contained.
A firing range might seem like an unlikely venue to launch a campaign for tougher gun laws. Guest host Linda Wertheimer speaks with astronaut Mark Kelly, who's on tour with his wife, former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, to promote background checks for gun purchasers.

You could say George Benson's latest album, Inspiration: A Tribute to Nat King Cole, was conceived decades ago. Benson was just a kid when he first mimicked Cole off the radio, singing his own version of "Mona Lisa" while accompanying himself on the ukulele. He even made a recording.
There's very disturbing news from Nigeria:
"At least 29 pupils and a teacher have been killed in a pre-dawn attack by suspected Islamists on a school in northeastern Nigeria, reports say." (BBC News)
The BBC's Will Ross, reporting from Lagos, adds that "it sounds like a horrific attack." Survivors say the gunmen set fire to buildings. Some of the students were burned alive, he reports, while "others were shot as they tried to run away."
Good morning.

Update at 9:22 p.m. ET. Snowden Reveals Documents On Brazil:
Amid requests and offers of asylum in Latin America, Edward Snowden has apparently released documents showing that the U.S. spied on millions of emails and phone calls of Brazilians. NPR's Lourdes Garcia-Navarro tells our Newscast Desk the report, published in the Rio de Janeiro paper O Globo, was co-written by Glenn Greenwald, who has been covering the National Security Agency's programs.

Welcome to the Psionicist class playtest for Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition.
This playtest encompasses the first few levels of the Psionicist and includes the class feats and over 30 implements specially designed for the class.
The Psionicist is a mental striker. They attack mind to mind and excel at focusing on taking down a single target at a time. The longer they stick on one target the more damage they do.
The Psionicist should be released both as a standalone product and as part of our upcoming Book of Classes. We look forward to hearing your feedback so we can polish and balance the class before release. Be sure to check out our other class playtests as well.
Feedback can be sent to: email@example.com

Thanks Brinked. If you feel that some sites have recovered, what was the length of time between changes made, and detecting positive results?
It took me a long time to realize: rewritten content. As my site became larger it was inevitable that something written about in 2010, would also be written about in 2011, and over time content was effectively - but unintentionally being duplicated.
However this is still speculation. Until I see some positive results - I cannot be sure why the huge panda hit.
