Comments about Spider Double Window Poster:
I love the designs this company makes for this product. We put them in our windows and get RAVE reviews from all of our neighbors. The spiders look great and don't need much light behind them....Just a small one in the room somewhere. A great product. I love the variety. I have a different design in each window facing our main street.

I thought I'd like these posters, but they look juvenille. If you have kids, these posters will probably be okay. But, if you're trying to create an awesome haunted house, don't get these.

Hi-Tek is normally just a producer in the group Reflection Eternal — he can rap too tho!
An accurate description of how many mass murderers think. Fame, along with revenge, is what motivates most mass murderers.
One more little push could be the straw that breaks the camel's back. He'll push the button to detonate his homemade bomb and send himself and everyone he knows into the "river below," a mythological term for the land of the dead (River Styx). .
At this point in his life, the character is pushed so far that he is beyond redemption. It is too late for anyone to change his mind about the "master plan." .
If only someone had recognized the character's virtues and given him the affection that every human being is due, he would have never thought of doing atrocities like this.
This is basically a sympathetic look at the last century's rash of mass murderers and what drove them to do what they did. On Billy Talent's website, Ben says that they were inspired by Columbine, the Oklahoma City bombing, and the DC sniper. The message is that everyone has the potential to do terrible things, and under enough stress anyone could be the next John Lee Malvoe.
Reiterating that he is building a bomb to kill many people. The "new monster" is the explosion, and killing all your family, making it impossible to have kids that will continue the family tree. Therefore, that "new monster" will kill your family tree.
Everyone will think the bomber was insane, but as long as he got famous for it, it's alright with him. Fame is somewhat an accomplishment for a guy like him that never succeded in anything. .

EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowships
As part of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council's (EPSRC) Doctoral Prize initiative Cardiff University is funding 3 one year research fellowships.
The Doctoral Prize is intended to develop the very best EPSRC supported students beyond the end of their PhD and support their transition to independent researchers. Applicants are invited to propose a novel research project in an area which fits within the EPSRC's funding remit and are expected to demonstrate independence from their PhD supervisor. (http://www.epsrc.ac.uk/research/ourportfolio/researchareas/Pages/researchareas.aspx)
Eligible fellowship applicants must have received support from the EPSRC for their PhD studies (either as stipend or fees, or both) and will be expected to pass their viva before starting the fellowship. These fellowships are aimed at those who have recently completed their PhD and only applicants who pass their viva after the 1st of October 2012 will be eligible.
The Doctoral Prize aims to develop independent researchers and applicants are encouraged to move into new areas of research and demonstrate the ability to work independently from their former supervisors. The academic mentor will work with the applicant to develop the project and ensure that sufficient consumables and travel are allocated to the project.
Applicants should contact an academic member of staff (who must NOT be their PhD supervisor) within the host School to discuss their research proposal. External students who have not carried out their PhD studies at Cardiff University are particularly encouraged to apply. Applications will be evaluated against the standard EPSRC postdoctoral assessment criteria as shown in Appendix 1.
The host School will provide applicants with the necessary support and guidance to complete the application form.
Applicants should send an electronic CV and completed application form through the University's E-recruitment website (http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/jobs/)
The deadline for receipt of applications is 5pm on Wednesday 10th of July 2013. Applications received after this time will NOT be considered.

Product Information
These offset inserts work only in Burris Signature Rings. They are offered as a matched pair (two halves) in three different offsets, a set of all three and a box of ten each (Product number 712472). One insert half is slightly thicker and the other slightly thinner than standard. Swapping the standard inserts with a pair of offset inserts will move the point of impact approximately 5" at 100 yards for the .005 inserts, 10" for the .010 and 20" for the .020. This will allow a gun to be sighted in that cannot be zeroed with the available windage and elevation adjustments in the scope. For serious shooters, the optional offset inserts allow a scope to be brought almost to complete zero, then using the windage and elevation adjustments only for the final, fine adjustment. This keeps the erector tube centered in the scope for improved scope clarity and performance.
Technical Information
Material: Plastic
Fits: Burris Signature Rings only
Contains two halves, enough for one ring
Inserts have the center opening offset by the amount of distance shown in the description. For example, .005" offset inserts
will move the scope tube .005" toward the thinner of the two inserts. The inserts can be used to move the scope tube in the
front ring, the rear ring or both rings. The inserts may also be used in any combination as long as the matched halves stay
together. A set of .005" inserts may be used in the front ring and .010" inserts in the rear or whatever combination is needed.
If the inserts are used to move the front of the scope tube to the right, the point of impact at 100 yards will move to the left
approximately 5 inches. If the scope tube is moved in the rear ring to the right, the point of impact will move to the right.
Inserts can be used to move the scope tube in any direction needed for windage and/or elevation.

The SSC Aero is an American-built mid-engine sports car by SSC North America (formerly known as Shelby SuperCars). The higher-performance limited-production version had formerly been listed in Guinness World Records as the fastest production car in the world. The record is currently held by Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, since 2010 when it reached the speed of 431.072 km/h. Recently the record was reverted to the SSC Ultimate Aero but only for a week as Guinness World Records changed its mind once again regarding the testing of the Bugatti: "Following a thorough review conducted with a number of external experts, Guinness World Records is pleased to announce the confirmation of Bugatti's record of Fastest production car achieved by the Veyron 16.4 Super Sport. The focus of the review was with respect to what may constitute a modification to a car's standard specification. Having evaluated all the necessary information, Guinness World Records is now satisfied that a change to the speed limiter does not alter the fundamental design of the car or its engine." The SSC Ultimate Aero does not have electronic aids such as ABS brakes or traction control, as according to Jerod Shelby, "Early design philosophy on the car was to make it a driver's car. I wanted a car that you not only throttled with your right foot but at times you could steer with your right foot."
The Aero and the Shelby SuperCars company are the brainchildren of Jerod Shelby (no relation to late racing driver and sportscar builder Carroll Shelby), who started out building exotic "replicars" including a Fiero-based Ferrari F355 replica and a Lamborghini Diablo replica based on a spaceframe which later was used in the Ultimate Aero prototype. Shelby later moved from building replicas to designing his first supercar and after seven years it finally began to take shape. Both the basic Aero model and the Ultimate Aero are no longer in production.
2004 - SSC Aero SC/8T №1[edit]

Aerodynamic Testing
Wind tunnel testing indicates that the Ultimate Aero could theoretically reach a top speed of 439 km/h (273 mph) given appropriate transmission gear ratios, although the supplied transmission would result in 418 km/h (260 mph)[3] at the car's redline. The base Aero, however, should "only" reach about 380 km/h (236 mph).[4] The Ultimate Aero accelerates from 0–96 km/h in 2.78 seconds,[5] slower than the Bugatti Veyron which achieves 0–96 km/h in 2.46 seconds partially due to its AWD drivetrain.[6]

Race Version
Rumors persist that the Ultimate Aero TT is nothing more than a stripped down racing version of the base Aero (rumors that the car has no air conditioning for example); however, such claims have been proven false.[3][7]
The engine in the base Aero model was a supercharged V8 Chevrolet Small Block series engine rated at 1,077 PS (792 kW; 1,062 hp) at 6600 rpm and 1,357 N·m (1,001 lbf·ft) at 5800 rpm, with the supercharger at 8 psi (0.55 bar) and running on 91 octane gasoline.
Versions and modifications[edit]
2007 - SSC Ultimate Aero TT[edit]
SSC Ultimate Aero TT - it is a turbocharged version of the SSC Ultimate Aero released in 2007.
The engine in the base Aero model is the same as the previous year, but the Ultimate Aero has a 6.35 liter (388 cubic inch) engine.

Special versions[edit]
2009 - SSC Ultimate Aero EV (Designed model)[edit]
This section reads like a news release, or is otherwise written in an overly promotional tone. (December 2011) |
SSC announced the production of the Ultimate Aero EV, an electrical version of the sports car. The released specifications include using 500 hp(373 kW) electric motor, with SSC also exploring the potential of using 2 engines in 2 or 4 wheel drive configuration. "I think we can do it faster, leaner and cleaner than any other manufacturer," claims the SSC founder, Jerod Shelby. SSC planned to produce its first prototype in February 2009, with production to begin as early as Q4 of 2009.
As part of the production plan, SSC also announced it had contracted with Sheffield International Finance Corporation to initiate the company's first acceptance of outside capital since its inception.[13]
In 2009 SSC announced electric powertrain and Ultimate Aero EV specifications.[14] "SSC will display its AESP in the Ultimate Aero EV in order to prove that electric-powered vehicles will not only match but also provide more linear power ... and overall performance than internal combustion cars. The Ultimate Aero EV uses a twin motor AESP producing 1,000 hp (746 kW) and 800 lb·ft (1,100 N·m) of torque enabling it to reach 60 mph (97 km/h) in 2.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 208 mph (335 km/h). Not only does the Ultimate Aero EV have a range of 150–200 miles on a single charge, but SSC's "Charge on the Run" onboard charging system allows for full battery recharges in as little as 10 minutes. No news has been heard since about the project.
- Length and width reduced from Ultimate Aero engine car version
2013 - SSC Ultimate Aero XT[edit]
SSC Ultimate Aero XT - the special edition to celebrate and end the production run of the model. The XT will be built in a limited run of just five examples and will utilize some key assemblies that will feature in the Tuatara, for instance, SSC's proprietary developed 6.9 litre all-aluminum twin-turbo V8 engine unit and several other features to go along with the new engine unit such as enhanced cooling, transmission upgrades as well as a seven-speed paddle-shifted gearbox.[15][16]
Technical specification (official manufacturer numbers)
- Engine - SSC proprietary Billet Aluminum 423.6 cubic-inch / 6.94 litre Twin-Turbo V8
- Horsepower - 1,300 bhp (969 kW; 1,318 PS) @ 6800 rpm
- Torque - 1,361 N·m (1,004 lb·ft) @ 6800 rpm
- Redline - 9200 rpm
- Max Speed - 275 mph /443kmh
- Drag Coefficient - 0.357
- Dry Weight - 2,800 lbs. = 1270 kg.
Speed attempt[edit]
SSC tested the top speed capability of the Ultimate Aero TT on March 22, 2007. The original test was scheduled for March 21 2007 but was called off due to bad weather conditions. SSC closed down a 12-mile (19 km) stretch of U.S. Route 93 in Nevada for the event. Their goal was to replace the Bugatti Veyron as the fastest production car ever produced, which at the time could achieve 253.7 mph (408.3 km/h). Simulation and testing at NASA's Virginia facility had shown that the Ultimate Aero TT is theoretically capable of approximately 273 mph (439 km/h).[17] The March 22nd attempt failed to break the record, due to sub-optimal conditions. Test driver Rick Doria reported "wheel-spin" at speeds above 190 mph (310 km/h).[18]
SSC announced they had broken the speed record for the world's fastest production car with 256.18 mph (412.28 km/h) in West Richland, WA on September 13, 2007. The reported record speed came from an average of two runs in opposite directions, in accordance with FIA Speed Records rules. The first run clocked 257.44 mph (414.31 km/h) and the return trip 254.91 mph (410.24 km/h). The results of this test, verified by Guinness World Records on October 9 2007, gave the SSC Ultimate Aero the title of world's fastest production car, with a top speed of 256.18 mph (412.28 km/h).[19] This beat the previous record holder, the Bugatti Veyron, that had a top speed of 253.81 mph (408.47 km/h).
In addition to the fastest production car record, SSC also applied for the world record for the highest power for an emissions-legal production automobile.[20]
The record-breaking 2007 Shelby SuperCars Ultimate Aero Chassis #TT-02 was later put into auction by Shelby SuperCars, which also included SSC World Record commemorative watch, key fob, original record-breaking wheels and tires, framed official Guinness World Records certificate with commemorative photo signed by Shelby SuperCars team.[21]
The car's record was broken on July 4, 2010 by the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, which reached a certified top speed of 431.00 km/h (267.81 mph).[22]

Making A Tablet In To A Jukebox?
Right now I have a Core 2 Duo pc in the garage, and was going to somewhat convert it over to a jukebox. Now, after thinking about it, I wonder if there is any apps, mods, themes, rooted Roms that may make an Android (suppose even ipad) in to a touchscreen jukebox?
The garage computer I have now actually came with a 3yr old or so $1000 Planar touchscreen (I got a bunch of free computer kiosks a while ago) which looks great for what it is etc, but I cannot get the touch screen to calibrate right. I've spent quite a few hours on it, short of actually calling Planar(which I might do).
So, it got me thinking about selling my free computer, and buying a tablet that has a touchscreen already on it, and can still be used as a shop computer to some extent(web surfing, printing etc).
Anyone know of good software/hardware?

Hi! This is my first time to your blog and I love it! Everything is so fun to look at and is my 'taste'. I LOVE that t-shirt you have posted too!! My main New Year resolution is to not spend any money on craft supplies and instead to donate the money I saved to the Crohn's and Colits Foundation.

text: Washington, D.C. — Although most insurers providing professional liability insurance for architects and engineers sought to raise rates last year, the size of the increases generally failed to meet their expectations. Nevertheless, nearly all leading insurers offering this specialty coverage did see premium growth in 2014 mainly from new business, an improving economy and moderately higher rates. A new survey by insurance broker Ames & Gough finds a majority of these insurers expect to seek further modest increases this year to compensate for what many of them consider inadequate pricing.

"I receive my order on time and I am pleased with the results as well. The card invite is perfect and color combination is also nice and give a sense of casual-formal invite. I got a lot of nice complements and asks where and who made this card. I definitely recommend this Dapper Diploma Postcards!!"
"Loved this postcard for a simple graduation party invitation. It fit inside my formal graduation announcements and I also sent some out on their own. The colors are great for a school that has gold or orange as one of its colors."

Title | Sneinton Hollows, The Old Wrestlers Inn and Bendigo public houses |

The former 'Wrestlers Inn' at the junction of Sneinton Hollows and Castle St. The building at the bottom of the street is, or was, The Bendigo, (Now unfortunately renamed The Hermitage), and the licence was transferred to there when the 'Wrestlers' closed. It commemorated Nottingham's famous Bare-knuckle fighter. Bare-knuckle fighting was ever popular during the free-wheeling days of the late 18th to mid 19th centuries and the only rules that governed these prize-fights had been drawn up in 1743 by a Thames waterman called Jack Broughton. These remained the only written rules for over a century. They stated that a round lasted for no set length of time, but ended when a fighter was knocked down or thrown to the ground by wrestling. (Hence the name of the pub in the foreground). Once floored, the fallen fighter had thirty seconds to come up to the 'scratch,' a marker set in the centre of the ring. During the bout, no fighter was allowed to take a respite, and would be instantly disqualified if he 'fell without taking a blow.' These contests became a war of attrition, often developing into a form of grappling match as the combatants became bruised and tired. Nottingham's famous bare-knuckle fighter who is celebrated by not only having this public house named after him was William Abednego Thompson (1811-1880), better known as 'Bendigo.' Bendigo was among the last of the great prize-fighters and was perhaps, the champion of all. His fans were many, and included such respected members of society as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who even penned a verse to the fighter entitled 'Bendigo's Sermon.' Bendigo's upbringing, like that of many of the fighters of the period, had not been easy. At the age of fifteen, following the death of his father, he was sent to the Nottingham Workhouse. Though he didn't remain there long, he was to experience the terrible harshness of life in poverty, vowing never to return. Having tried his hand at oyster selling on the streets of the city he took up a trade as an iron turner, thus developing his muscular physique. But prize-fighting was to become Bendigo's main occupation and by the age of 21 he had successfully defeated a number of local men. Bendigo loved to taunt his opponents as they fought by making faces at them or composing impromptu rhymes at their expense. Such asides made him a crowd pleaser and his contests were often witnessed by upwards of 15,000 spectators. In February 1839 he met the fearsome 'Deaf' James Burke in a fight for the championship of all-England at Heather in Leicestershire. Within half-an-hour Burke was well-beaten. In a fit of temper he resorted to head-butting his much younger 'southpaw' challenger - thus losing the contest by being disqualified for foul-play. Bendigo's last fight was on the 5th June 1850, against a young Redditch man called Tom Paddock. A fight that the champion was to win in the 49th round following a foul by his opponent. Up until that point though the fight had been too close to call and Bendigo, now in his fortieth year, decided to quit the ring. During his later years he became a Methodist preacher and though illiterate he had his own way of delivering a sermon. Adopting a boxer's stance he would point to the hard-earned trophies by his side and address his audience with the following words: 'See them belts, see them cups, I used to fight for those. But now I fight for Christ.' Bendigo died on 23rd August 1880 seven weeks after falling down the stairs of his home in Beeston, his grave is marked by a stone in the Bath Street Gardens (a former burial ground in Nottingham) where it is the only memorial not to have been moved.
