That's a sweet looking White Fett you've put together there. Very well done. Looks great !!
Wow!! That is awesome!!! Great looking suit bro!
I'm sure someone on here can help ya out with the sling gun.
UNBELIEVABLE! That is too cool! Just paint those boots white.
WOW!!! All I can say is paint the boots and its perfect!
Awesome man! Great work!
Fantastic, you really pulled off the look.
Wow. Sooooo nice. Awesome!
Someone get this man a vintage Star Wars towel. This is one of the best Fett costumes I've seen in years. Amazing...simply amazing.
Why didn't you paint your costume? (I bet you got a lot of that)
Seriously, that is the coolest thing. I love it.
Contact wizardofflight for his slinggun blueprints.
That is the best Albino Fett I've seen in a long time.
Wouldn't he have a red visor if he was truly an albino? I love how all the little details still stand out on your otufit.
Looks great! Would be nice to see lined up beside some plain white clones and stormies.
I would like to see you against a plain white background.
Very cool setup.
I agree, paint the boots and you`re all set!!
Hi and thanks a lot for all compliments !
BtW, the boots are white now ;-)
That's such a nice Fett. Deffinately get a group shot with white clones and stormtroopers.
If only I thought of this before I did my custom.
Every time I look at the pic from Pre-pro of that costume I think, I would love to make that, if it didn't require lots of money to add to the mix! If I had the extra money I would start it right away! Wouldn't take me long to make being the coloring is all 1 sided! It is very awesome and I wish Lucas would of integrated him into hoth earlier in the movie to add that. Technically it is considered canon too!
Great looking costume!!
fantastic! Just great!
You are my hero.
That is sweet. Love the Albino Fett.
I really really like this
You've done a fantastic job
A two year old thread that I must of missed originaly...but wow, they're right, this is seriously one very awsome albino Fett!!!! I'm glad someone bumped it!
I missed this too. Very nice though.
Yeah, I bumped it. When I signed on her two years ago, this is what I really wanted to do. I settled with a cheap TK and joined the 501st! I've had the original Lucasfilm White SuperCommando thing in my head since then, and it won't go away! However, I am really liking the Mandalorian Protector thing as well. Tobbi Dala and Fenn Shysa! Not tht it's important, but if I put alot of money and time into a Fett Suit, I'd like it to be something I could get into the 501st with, so I could show it off. The Mandalorian Protoector thing is pretty Canon, anyone have any opinions? Has anyone tried to look into it? Should I start a new thread?
Hi Guys, funny to get this thread a new chance after 2 years
I love the Supertrooper beside the Empire Version.
Since then, the Costume is still in process, I´ve finished the Sling Gun and the Uzi based Blaster.
I recoloured the Armour parts with a shiny white and remove all dents
Next time, I start to finish a new JP made by MOW and some new parts by BM. Pics will follow ;-)

Love the new shiny paint. Excellent job on the space uzi! My pleasure to bring this old thread back. You have the costume I always wanted!
I love it!! Mojo Fett has a great albino Fett lid but to this complete albino Boba is fantastic!!
I noticed something though, does your helmet not have "The Dent"? Maybe it's the white that's hiding it but I couldn't see it?
No Dent. The originally constructed suits by Lucasfilm were clean, shiny white and dent free!
I see, I thought this was an albino Boba so I thought there'd be a dent. Anyway, either way I love it!
Well, what do ya know?! I did not know that! Thanks very much, learn something new everyday!
WOW Sven your suit looks amazing man! Fantastic work on the blaster, I swear it looks like the real deal.
Amazing job!
I love the look of the White Fett design, the details of the armor just pop out, its very dificult to hide any imperfection.
Very elegant and cool!
Thanks Guys for all of the compliments.
I also started a new version of the Gauntlets in shiny white, here´re pics of the unfinished right one.

Im liking the shiny white. Did you make the guants?
wizard of flight has blueprint drawings to make a sling gun
Space Uzis and Space Camera Sling Guns, awesome!
Those new gauntlets are going to be wicked.
That's one bad suit!
May I ask where you got the base uzi from or info on it?
Outstanding job. Somehow I missed this thread the first time around, but have to say, all of your improvements are spot on. This is the first true Supertrooper I have seen and it looks AWESOME!
Wow, were you suprised to see your old thread bumped?
I'm glad it was, and your mods. look absoutly great...As do your blasters! I wish I had those!
I'm responsible for the bump! I may still forgo the Mandalorian Protector concept in Leiu of the White Fett! I just can't get it out of my head!
here´s a small update on the new Gauntlets.
Both are unpainted but shiny white
I like it ,nice job!
Wow, wow, wow
Really great job, makes me want to switch over from ESB.
I am curious if anyone knows, does the 501 accept this? Would be really different to have this for trooping!
gauntlets still in progress:
Im not crazy about the white boba, but this look awesome !!!
That is so awesome!!!! I really like the all white. Ever think about weathering it up?
Outstanding job! Very motivating!!
super awesome!
WAu man, incredible, fantastic friend, congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome. Its good to see more people adding the light on the front of their gauntlets.
Man Sven, every time I see you update this it makes me want more! I'm glad to see you added the lights, looks fantastic
Wow, what a fantastic costume! Those gauntlets are amazing! I'm getting all interested in melanin-challenged Fett again! I only got as far as painting a DP 95 white a few years ago.
Thanks for posting the pics Sven!
here's a bigger update.
I'd finished the work on the new Jet Pack from MOW, depending on the reference I got.
Here're some pictures of it.
for reference:

I found 2 little Fogging machines on eBay.
They're from "Look Solution" a German Company specialized of Disco Light and Foggers. This little "Tiny Fogger" is special made for the use with costumes. It works with battery and use special fluid.
Here's the link to the company's site:
I'd build a pipe system inside the JP to get the fog into the Thrusters.
This fogging machine it truly perfect for the Jet Pack, I'll post pictures of a working one.
Now I start to work on a radio controlled switch inside the Gauntlets….
Additional I have airbrushed the completed armour into a new shiny white.
and painted the Paterson squeeze and chemical stick into shiny white.
I have received the Star Wars Beach Towel (without fringes ) from Art. Thanks a lot for the offering!
Special Thanks to Nick (TR 4059) for the shipping!
and Bobamaker gloves
and new ankle spats

Wow, that looks realy nice!
That looks great. I really like the small fog units for the JP. Thinking about looking into those for mine. Make a great scene setter wouldn't they!
AWESOME Work.....love the added lights, perfect.
It is a fantastic suit but it just needs the correct 'laser' where the flamethrower goes and then its spot on perfect
You're doing an amazing job with this.
Super nasty, I really dig your work Sven. It's a shame it isn't legion accepted, but it's certainly accepted by alot of us guys on TDH.
Wow! Everything looks fantastic. Great job on the jet pack I love the detail put into it, nice touch with the red greeblie next to the stabalizer to Cant wait to see it all together
Theres something about an all white Boba that sends tingles down my spine. It looks very coooooool.
Really amazing!!!! Reminds me of the conceptional drawings for the movies. Is there any possibility to get a pair of these awesome gauntlets??? That would be really great!
this thread has lasted forever! and lol at then fact that this guys white prepro fett has to be one of the best looking suits on this board.
maybe that's because he hasn't had to worry about paintjobs whatsoever...
but look at the detail and quality of parts anyway. Tons of found parts and clean looking stuff.
Love the kaiser gun
I consider this white Fett as Canon BECAUSE LUCAS IS STANDING RIGHT THERE WITH HIM!! COMMON 501st ACCEPT it!
Sven has been working his butt off.
Good camo if the bounty hunter goes tracking on a icy planet like HOTH
Why isn't it cannon? It was the one used for promo work wasn't it? and got a lot of coverage!
This suit is looking better and better! Thanks for posting all those pics so far!

Awesome work Sven!!! I am completely jealous!!!
Excited to see it completed.

The Broncos came away with a win, taking down the Buccaneers 16-13 and moving to 4-1 in the process.
But a few Broncos were injured in the hard-fought win, including two of the team's top pass catchers.
Eddie Royal went down during a punt return, and he did not return to the game. He went into the locker room and did not return, suffering a sprained ankle.
Tony Scheffler also left the game with an injury on the final drive of the game. He suffered a strained left groin.
Ebenezer Ekuban and Selvin Young both suffered left groin strains as well.
Head Coach Mike Shanahan will give another update during his press conference tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. MDT.

Moral victory! Whoooo Hooooo! Kept it between 3-15 points for the entire game. After shooting 0-11 to open the game, it's quite a feat. I woke this morning and found a new thread here on BobcatsPlanet, "I'm officially done with Larry Brown." Larry's schtick has grown tired round these parts. His affinity for middle talent "hard working" players like Dominic McGuire, while players that have a lot of potential, like Derrick Brown or Tyrus Thomas are given fewer minutes. Even the oft maligned Nazr Mohammed is relegated to the bench after a mere 18 minutes. Nazr is third on the team in field goal percentage, Probably brought down from last night's 0-4 performance. #1 and #2 on that list, Derrick Brown and Boris Diaw respectively.
Last night was a bit of an anomaly. Atlanta is 17-11 on the year, good enough for 5th in the East. They had been without Joe Johnson, their best and highest paid (by a lot) player for the past two and a quarter weeks according to ESPN (what is a quarter of a week? 42 hours, not sure how much work their put into finding out when he went under the knife but, whatever). Losing 3 of their last four, they looked to do what Boston and Memphis did, which was get a big win over the Bobcats. The Bobcats came in without Gerald Wallace, who injured his ankle and was missing his second game. On the surface it looked to be one of those games where you weren't sure who would show up in what capacity, but I never thought Charlotte would miss their first 11 shots, going scoreless for the first 4 minutes (almost 3 shots per minute, compared to the season average of 1.5 FGA per minute).
Somehow Atlanta never pulled away and DJ Augustin and Boris Diaw kept the 'Cats in the game with 22 points each. Stephen Jackson went out near the end of the first quarter with some sort of forearm/elbow injury, had x-rays and came back after halftime. His shot was off, hitting on only 3 of his 14 attempts. It was alright, even Larry was a bit cheerful saying "Oh, yeah, I can live with that." "You know me, I would never have a problem when we play that hard."
Gerald Wallace took on the role of head cheerleader and 5th assistant coach. Decidedly different from his posture and moping the previous game against Memphis, spending most of his time at the end of the bench. With Jackson hampered, it was nice to see DJ and Boris step up. While we all can complain about Dominic McGuire and his insertion to the starting lineup, he did have 17 rebounds…
This team seems to be still rudderless but with their two captains out or at least in a diminished role, I look for more of this "step-up" excitement from the guys who see action. When you look at the numbers, which is a dizzying way to spend 20 or so minutes when you're groping for a storyline, you see some interesting leaders. As stated, Derrick Brown leads the team in FG% but is 8th in attempts and 45 behind 7th. When you look at points per 36 minutes (basketball-reference.com looks at 36 rather than 48, probably because players rarely play 48), Tyrus Thomas leads the team. I'll say that again: Tyrus Thomas, leads the team in points, per 36 minutes. They simply divide points by # of minutes played and multiply it by 36 and Tyrus leads of Stephen Jackson by 3. So why doesn't he play more? You could say it's his turnovers, he's 3rd on the team per 36 minutes…but I really don't see it statistically other than that.
Who else might surprise you? Nazr Mohammed again, with 16.9 points per 36 minutes! What is going on? I don't know about this per 36 minutes stuff. Let's look at PER. WOW! Take a look for your self: http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/CHA/2011.html (at the bottom under advanced, click PER…that's right!) Tyrus is #1 and Nazr #2! Tyrus Thomas is #16 on Hollinger's listing and Nazr #68.
Win shares, another odd stat that I don't completely understand, per 48 minutes, Tyrus leads the team again, followed by DJ Augustin, Nazr and oops who is that? Derrick Brown? Have you heard of this guy? He must suck if he can't break Larry Brown's rotation.
So what's the point? Gerald is out, might be for a while. Jackson's elbow is messed up and his shooting might be off for a few games. Who do you turn to? If you're sitting on that bench in the giant Phil Jackson chair, what would you do? Personally, you can trot damn Dominic McGuire out there, let him get his rebounds (leads the team per 36 minutes). You need rebounding and he certainly brings it. But why not, just on a hunch…no hell no it's not a hunch, it's stats, plain as day! You need to get Tyrus Thomas in your top 3 in minutes per game over this stretch with Gerald out. You need to leave Shaun Livingston on the bench and let him rest his bionic knee and the real flesh that may or may not surround it. You need to rest Boris a bit, but put his ass on the stationary bike when he sits, he isn't bringing you win's (8th on the team in winshares per 48). Play Derrick Brown, play Nazr until his old ass legs are about to fall off, he needs more touches, and for God sakes play Tyrus Thomas until he gets his ass in foul trouble!
Atlanta was a flukey deal, Larry was happy with it, I wasn't. You don't have moral victories and your guys are pros and I promise you are working hard every game. Shake it up! Might not happen until there is a new coach in town however…ponder on that one for a bit.

The scent is heavenly, but it irritated my scalp. So sad. I wanted to like this one so badly. I'm glad I tried the travel size first.

Biography (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
Randall Jarrell was born to Owen and Anna Jarrell in Nashville on May 6, 1914, to the shifting landscapes of modernism and looming war. Jarrell, whose name is accented on the second syllable, had a difficult childhood marked by the separation of his parents and by being moved around from place to place; the desire for true "home" is a topic for much of his poetry. Attending college at Vanderbilt University, he was drawn into literature by his association with John Crowe Ransom, who, with his friends Robert Penn Warren and Allen Tate, was active during the 1920's and 1930's in reinvigorating Southern poetry. Ransom was a major influence on Jarrell's poetry, as was Robert Lowell, with whom he would share a lifelong friendship.
Jarrell took both bachelor's and master's degrees at Vanderbilt University in 1935 and 1938 and then went to teach at Kenyon College, following his mentor Ransom. Jarrell taught at Kenyon from 1937 to 1939. He left Kenyon for the University of Texas at Austin (then University of Texas Main University), where he roomed at first with Robert Lowell. In 1939, he married Mackie Langham. He taught at the University of Texas until 1942, published his first book, Blood for a Stranger, in that year, and then went to war. Though he never fought in battle, having been rejected as a potential pilot, he trained Air Force pilots and worked with them in the "celestial navigation tower." This position gave him plenty of knowledge and war experience to lend authority to his poetry and reinforced his...

Biography (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
Randall Jarrell has constructed a persuasive persona whose meditations on loss and isolation continue to speak to new generations of readers; his poems read all together in The Complete Poems (1969) provide the full impact of his vision. His first-hand observations of World War II give a memorable account in poems of this time period and the atmosphere of the war; many students have had their impression of that war shaped in part by these poems. Jarrell greatly admired war correspondent Ernie Pyle, and his own poetry is like Pyle's war dispatches in the combination of precision and passion. Moreover, his belief in the sad integrity of the child's vision remains persuasive. Jarrell merges personal losses with those of others to produce poems that are a telling indictment of war. Their mixture of modernist disillusionment with a thwarted romanticism produce a crescendo of sadness for a lost world—a world that never was and which Jarrell himself realized never existed.
Biography (Critical Survey of Poetry: American Poets)
Randall Jarrell spent his youth in Tennessee and California, living with his grandparents in Hollywood for a time when his parents separated. Although his family expected him to go into his uncle's candy business, Jarrell enrolled in psychology at Vanderbilt University, where he met the poet and critic John Crowe Ransom and, through him, other members of the waning Fugitive movement, including Robert Penn Warren, Allen Tate, and Donald Davidson. In 1937, Jarrell and his associate Peter Taylor followed Ransom to Kenyon College, where Jarrell began a lifelong association with Robert Lowell. During this period, Jarrell also completed work for his M.A. degree in literature, including a critical thesis on A. E. Housman under the direction of Donald Davidson.
Jarrell began his career as a professor at the University of Texas in Austin, where he met Mackie Langham, who became his wife in 1940. He enlisted in a ferry-pilot training program soon after Pearl Harbor, but actually began his military career as a private in the Army Air Corps. He served as a celestial navigation tower operator at Chanute Field in Illinois and Davis-Monthan Field in Arizona. After the war, he taught at Sarah Lawrence College and then at the Women's College of the University of North Carolina in Greensboro. In the summer of 1948, Jarrell traveled to Europe, teaching American civilization at the Salzburg Summer Seminar. In 1951, Randall and Mackie Jarrell separated, and in 1952, they were divorced. Jarrell married Mary von Schrader late in 1952.
Jarrell was hospitalized briefly for a nervous disorder in 1965. He continued to teach at the University of North Carolina in Greensboro until October of that year, when he was struck and killed by an automobile in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
Biography (Cyclopedia of World Authors, Fourth Revised Edition)
Born in Nashville, Tennessee, Randall Jarrell spent much of his childhood in California but returned to Nashville for his high school education. He attended Vanderbilt University, where he received his bachelor's degree in 1935. After two years of graduate study at Vanderbilt, he became an instructor of English at Kenyon College. He received his master's degree from Vanderbilt upon completion of his thesis in 1939. From 1939 until 1942 he taught at the University of Texas, then spent the next four years in the U.S. Army Air Force. After the war he taught briefly at Sarah Lawrence College, then joined the faculty of the Women's College of North Carolina in 1947, where he taught for the rest of his life. In 1952 he married Mary von Schrader.
In addition to his teaching, he served on the editorial boards of several magazines, including The Nation and The American Scholar. From 1956 until 1958 he was Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress. The Woman at the Washington Zoo received the National Book Award for Poetry in 1961. In October of 1965, while walking beside a highway near Chapel Hill, he was struck by a car and killed.
The poetry in Jarrell's first four books is based heavily on his war experience; he examines the lives of individual fighting men in compassionate detail, revealing war's horrors even through lines spoken by characters to whom war is merely a way of living in the world. In later poems Jarrell turned his attention to the "dailiness of life" in the civilian United States, often in modified dramatic monologues spoken by some of the most memorable characters in twentieth century American verse. The language of many of these poems is that of a person trying to be understood; its repetitiousness is occasionally excessive, but most often it lends a distinctive authenticity to the poet's search for meaning in ordinary life.
Jarrell's only novel, Pictures from an Institution, is a trenchant but affectionate satire on academic life, set at a fictional "progressive" college for women. Though its characters sound at first like stereotypes—the young "boy wonder" president, the visiting woman novelist of vituperative tongue, the vapidly enthusiastic teacher of creative writing—Jarrell brings them convincingly to life.

"You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserves your love and affection."
A client of mine at this past weekend's Wild Women's Intuitive Painting Retreat shared a book with me that she wanted to burn in our campfire. She said, "I am done with this book, 'Getting to I Do.' I am going to focus on loving myself first–I am my happy ending!"
I felt this was profound. Not just her proclamation of self-love and reverence but also of holding herself fully responsible for her own happiness. In that sense I found the book had made its impact. It might not have been the immediate result that she was ultimately seeking when she picked up the book – which was to get married – yet the result was one far greater than she could have realized at that point. The result was fully committing to herself.
Dreams, visions and desires are all nice. I will be the first to claim myself as a dreamer with a vivid imagination. However, Champagne dreams are just clouds in the ether unless you fully commit to manifest them thoroughly.
Are you willing to get to I do, by taking the journey to what you want?

Cold Steel O Bokken Trainer 31.5" Training Edge Blade Polypropylene Black
Product #: 483329
Cold Steel #:
Product Information
The Cold Steel Axe Gang Hatchet is a design that Cold Steel has been after for some time. Finally Cold Steel can bring to market one of the devastating Chinese styled hatchets used with such awesome effect in countless Kung Fu movies. The Cold Steel version, the Axe Gang Hatchet, is an authentically formidable weapon, not just a prop for the cameras.
This high quality training tool is constructed of the heaviest grade polypropylene available, which adds to the realism by mimicking an actual hatchet's weight, length, size and feel. While not quite as rigid as wood, the Cold Axe Gang Hatchet Trainer has the advantage of being virtually unbreakable, more flexible and highly resistant to scratching.

NIVEA BB Cream
Nivea BB Cream, photo by me
These day's most of us can rarely find the time for a 10-step skin care routine in the morning! Me absolutely being one of them!
NIVEA has send me their new BB Cream, BB being short for "Blemish Balm", for me to try out. The tinted daydream promises deep hydration, to smooth the skin and reduce the pores, to cover blemishes, a natural color, a soft glowing skin and SPF 10 sun protection.
I have been using the Nivea BB Cream for a few days now, doing double duty as both a moisturizer and foundation and I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised! The cream actually does what my Primer is supposed to do (and obviously doesn't). My skin ended up looking radiant and smooth with a very beautiful healthy rosy glow like Cameron Diaz on the cover of British Vogue December Issue!
The BB cream is enriched with vitamins C, mineral pigments and Provitamine B5 giving covering while nourishing at the same time.
The cream comes in two tints, the BB Cream Light for fair skin and the BB Cream
Medium for Tan skin.
ps. Tomorrow I will post the DIY Baroque Tights Tutorial!

Robot locomotion
This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. (March 2009) |
Robot locomotion is the collective name for the various methods that robots use to transport themselves from place to place. Although wheeled robots are typically quite energy efficient and simple to control, other forms of locomotion may be more appropriate for a number of reasons (e.g. traversing rough terrain, moving and interacting in human environments). Furthermore, studying bipedal and insect-like robots may beneficially impact on biomechanics.
A major goal in this field is in developing capabilities for robots to autonomously decide how, when, and where to move. However, coordinating a large number of robot joints for even simple matters, like negotiating stairs, is difficult. Autonomous robot locomotion is a major technological obstacle for many areas of robotics, such as humanoids (like Honda's Asimo).
Types of locomotion[edit]
In terms of energy efficiency on flat surfaces, wheeled robots are the most efficient. This is due to the fact that an ideal rolling (but not slipping) wheel loses no energy. A wheel rolling at a given velocity needs no input to maintain its motion. This is in contrast to legged robots which suffer an impact with the ground at heelstrike and lose energy as a result.
There are many different types of wheeled robots, the most common being the Reed Shepps type and the unicycle type. The major concern in the motion planning of wheeled robots are the holonomic that the robot is subject to. These are decided by the type of wheels, number of wheels and the direction of the axes of rotation of the wheels.
- iRobot's Roomba
- Various DARPA Grand Challenge entries
Bipedal walking[edit]
For simplicity most mobile robots have four wheels or a number of continuous tracks. Some researchers have tried to create more complex wheeled robots with only one or two wheels. These can have certain advantages such as greater efficiency and reduced parts, as well as allowing a robot to navigate in confined places that a four wheeled robot would not be able to.

Several robots, built in the 1980s by Marc Raibert at the MIT Leg Laboratory, successfully demonstrated very dynamic walking. Initially, a robot with only one leg, and a very small foot, could stay upright simply by hopping. The movement is the same as that of a person on a pogo stick. As the robot falls to one side, it would jump slightly in that direction, in order to catch itself.[1] Soon, the algorithm was generalised to two and four legs. A bipedal robot was demonstrated running and even performing somersaults.[2] A quadruped was also demonstrated which could trot, run, pace, and bound.[3] For a full list of these robots, see the MIT Leg Lab Robots page.
Metachronal motion[edit]
Coordinated, sequential mechanical action having the appearance of a traveling wave is called a metachronal rhythm or wave, and is employed in nature by ciliates for transport, and by worms and arthropods for locomotion.
Several snake robots have been successfully developed. Mimicking the way real snakes move, these robots can navigate very confined spaces, meaning they may one day be used to search for people trapped in collapsed buildings.[4] The Japanese ACM-R5 snake robot[5] can even navigate both on land and in water.[6]
Brachiation allows robots to travel by swinging, only using energy to grab and release surfaces.[7]

- Product optimization
- Motion planning
- Motion capture may be performed on humans, insects and other organisms.
- Machine learning, typically with reinforcement learning.

LaGrange police have broken up what they believe to be a prostitution ring.
The Special Investigations Unit says it uncovered the illegal activity after receiving complaints that "a man was pimping females to people within the City of LaGrange."
Undercover officers arranged for a meeting between the perpetrator and a female at the Town and Country Motel at 712 New Franklin Road Saturday at 1 a.m.
The arrangement was made under the pretenses that the female would be paid for sexual intercourse when she arrived. Both parties arrived and were taken into custody, according to police.
The suspects were identified as Deandre Reaves and Yvonne Anne Smith. Reaves was charged with one count of pimping while Smith is facing prostitution charges. The duo was transported to the Troup County Jail. Copyright 2012 WTVM. All rights reserved.

Yet another way to brown-bag it
Here's an idea: Split lunch duty with a co-worker.
Get tired of bringing your lunch every day? Smart Spending message board reader "toucan77" has a solution: Split lunch duty with someone else.
This reader and a co-worker take alternate days bringing in lunch for two. According to toucan77's suggestion, posted on a thread about general frugality, this takes almost no extra work and it provides several very nice benefits.
Just as having an exercise buddy gets you to the gym on time, having a lunch partner keeps participants away from the Dollar Menu -- you wouldn't leave the other person high and dry by not bringing lunch, would you?
Eating someone else's cooking adds "a nice variety" to the week's lunches because you're not eating your own recipes day after day. The co-workers are enjoying "healthy, home-cooked meals" instead of fast food. Lunch is ready when you are -- no need to drive to a restaurant, or tip a waiter or counter person.
"Last but not least, we're saving money. Lots of it!" toucan77 writes.
Having heard from Brown Bag Challenge participants, and also being a long-time lunch carrier myself, I know that the savings can be huge.

IKEA is a destination not only for Michigan residents, but also shoppers from other states and Canada. / Bill Bresler | Staff Photographer
IKEA, already a massive landmark in Canton, could grow substantially if a preliminary proposal by company officials ushers in the first major expansion of the Swedish retailers only Michigan store.
IKEA spokesman Joseph Roth confirmed the company has submitted a plan to Canton Township officials for what he called a possible store expansion though a specific time frame wasnt known.
Roths remarks provide one indicator of just how successful the 311,000-square-foot store has been since 2006, when it opened its doors on the northwest corner of Ford and Haggerty roads in Cantons bustling business district.
Canton Community Planner Jeff Goulet said IKEA has submitted to the township a proposed amendment to its planned development district agreement. He said IKEA has indicated an interest in expanding the west side of the store by 44,000 square feet, adding parking and demolishing the former ABC Warehouse building, located on IKEA property.
We have to figure out what the benefit to the community would be, Goulet said.
Township planners have responded to IKEA and asked for revisions to the initial proposal, Goulet said.
Roth said IKEA doesnt disclose annual sales for specific stores. He said the companys 38 U.S. stores had $4.1 billion in sales for 2012, compared to $34.6 billion for 349 sites in 43 countries.
IKEA plans to open stores this year in Miami and in 2015 in Kansas City, Kan. The company sells ready-to-assemble furniture, appliances and home accessories.
Roth said IKEA has been using the former ABC Warehouse building for storage since that company moved further west on Ford Road, occupying the old Borders book store site.
Roth said IKEA could potentially move forward with a blueprint to expand its Canton store.
However, those are not final plans merely a means as part of our evaluation process for us to get an understanding of what it would take and cost if we were to go down that road, he said. Should we decide to pull the trigger and proceed down that path, we would be making an official and public filing at that point in time.
Roth said IKEA is exploring its options and time frames.
At this point, we just intend to maintain the (ABC Warehouse) property. Its more for storage and our busiest time is usually late summer, when our new catalogs get distributed, he said. For sure it will be there through the fall of this year. We havent finalized any long-term plan.
However, he added, We will not be leasing it out to any other third party or anything like that. Were still finalizing our long-term plans for the Canton store, as well as for the ABC Warehouse grounds.
IKEA Canton has drawn customers from across Michigan, other states and Canada, making it a destination for many shoppers from far away. Roth said the company is thrilled with the performance and reception the store has had.

Remarks by Anne S. FerroFMCSA Administrator"What DOT is doing to Crack Down on Fatigue & Sleep Apnea"Sleep Apnea & Multimodal Transportation Conference 2011Baltimore, Maryland
Introduction/Recognition Good afternoon, everyone. I was pleased to participate in last year's sleep apnea and trucking conference and I am proud of DOT and FMCSA's continued sponsorship and involvement and this year's spotlight on multimodal transportation safety.
Today I will talk about the steps the Department is taking to gain a better understanding in the prevention and management of fatigue and sleep apnea to ensure that we fulfill the public's expectation of safety, every trip, for every driver, every time.
At the U.S. Department of Transportation, our fundamental mission is to help Americans travel safely from one place to another. Crashes happen in the blink of an eye. So our solemn obligation – the responsibility with which the American people have entrusted us – is to prevent deadly crashes.
With me from FMCSA is Dr. Benisse Lester who is our Chief Medical Officer. You will find her participating in several sessions throughout the conference. Also joining us are Elaine Papp, Pam Perry, Albert Alvarez, Rick Wood, Shannon Watson and Angela Ward. These folks work daily on programs, regulations and technology to reduce fatigued driving. At FMCSA, we are all about saving lives. FMCSA and the rest of the Department puts the public's safety above all else. That's what the public entrusts us to do.
Fatigue & Sleep Apnea Among the many challenges we face are those related to fatigue and sleep apnea.
Fatigue is one of the most dangerous driver conditions leading to transportation crashes. 1 Fatigue sharply reduces a transportation workers' level of alertness and awareness of what is happening, and ultimately increases the likelihood of falling asleep at the controls of a truck, bus, train, plane or ship. Fatigue reduces a driver's perception, recognition and ability to control the vehicle. All too often, the tell-tale signs of fatigue that can cause a crash come too late to take effective action.
According to FMCSA's Large Truck Crash Causation Study, we estimate that fatigue is a factor in approximately 13 percent of all crashes involving large trucks.
Sleep apnea is an important cause of fatigue and by itself is a serious medical issue which, if diagnosed and treated, can help to ensure transportation workers can operate safely.
Both conditions are serious impediments to public safety and DOT is focusing on them like never before.
DOT Safety Council Making all travel safer takes a larger commitment than just one or two agencies within the Department. As a result, Secretary LaHood established the DOT Safety Council two years ago to focus on this and other safety issues. The Safety Council brings together each part of DOT in addressing transportation safety as a critical national health issue.
Deputy Secretary John Porcari chairs the Council where senior leaders from our 10 operating administrations meet monthly to coordinate efforts.
One of the ways the Safety Council continues the dialogue on fatigue is through participation in events like today's conference. Because fatigue affects all modes of transportation, the Safety Council is conducting several projects focused on fatigue and hours-of-service to gain more information and a better understanding one of our toughest safety challenges.
The projects underway include:
Cross Modal Initiatives on Fatigue Our efforts don't end there. Each agency is making progress on understanding the role of fatigue in its own area and is doing something about it.
FRA has a project on sleep disorders and sleep apnea. They have developed a screening tool for train crews to understand sleep and its disorders. The web site was shown at a session yesterday and will be highlighted at the session on sleep apnea in the transportation workforce immediately following this one.
In August, FRA published a final rule to limit the number of consecutive hours passenger railroad workers can be on the job. FRA issued this rule to reduce risk and improve safety in the railroad industry, and for the first time, differentiated between freight and passenger service.
The Federal Transit Administration is in the final stages of developing an on-line course focused on understanding fatigue for public transit employees. This course will be made available as early the first of the year.
It will give transit employees the knowledge they need to identify warning signs of fatigue and sleep disorders such as sleep apnea.
The Federal Aviation Administration continues to push for pilot flight and duty time changes. The rule is in its final stages. FAA is working to get the rule out as soon as possible. FAA remains committed to ensuring that airline pilots are fit and rested when they report for duty.
The Federal Highway Administration is working with states to construct safety edges on America's roadsides. This simple innovation sets the outside edge of new or resurfaced pavement at 30 degrees, helping fatigued drivers who have strayed from the road to more safely re-enter traffic. And rumble strips are getting all drivers attention.
Across the modes, we are taking a vigilant approach to safety and fatigue in particular.
FMCSA Initiatives At FMCSA, we understand that fatigue and sleep apnea is complex with no easy solutions. That is why we rely on a mix of research, regulations, enforcement, grants to states and public outreach to save lives by reducing crashes involving large trucks and buses.
Earlier this year, we developed a Sleep Apnea spot-light page on our web site, complete with tools and resources directed to both drivers and carriers. This page gives visitors a one-stop place to highlight the problem of sleep disorders and commercial motor vehicle safety.
For the first-time ever, FMCSA is holding a joint session on December 7 of our Medical Review Board and the Motor Carrier Advisory Committee to address how FMCSA will explore how FMCSA might move forward in our approach to fatigue and sleep apnea and to recommend what direction those decisions that will take us.
Everything from regulatory guidance based on current regulations to the cost-effectiveness of current screening methods will be discussed. The meeting is open to the public – please check the FMCSA or MCSAC web sites for an announcement with more details of the December 7 meeting.
Current FMCSA Research As I said earlier, fatigue is estimated to be a factor in 13 percent of all truck crashes1 and it is one of the most dangerous conditions for drivers of large trucks.2
That is why we have undertaken several studies to better understand sleep apnea.
A May 2002 study found that almost one-third of truck and bus drivers tested have mild to severe sleep apnea. The prevalence of sleep apnea is impacted by short sleep duration or six hours or less per night of sleep.
A 2004 report assessed the risks of commercial motor vehicle crashes due to sleep apnea. The study found that age and BMI or Body Mass Index – are the two major factors linked to the frequency of sleep apnea. The study also found a significant relationship between severe sleep apnea and severe crashes – those that cause multiple injuries and require vehicles to be towed from the scene.
Drivers with severe sleep apnea were 4.6 times more likely to be involved in a severe crash in the seven-year period than drivers who did not have sleep apnea.
Another study evaluated the effects of putting into place fatigue management programs in trucking companies. The study found that adherence to sleep apnea treatment greatly varied among the study sites. We learned that you can't just focus on the screening of sleep apnea; you must also be concerned with the compliance of sleep apnea treatment.
FMCSA recognizes the need for studies to gain a better understanding of detention or waiting times in the trucking industry and the safety impacts that can occur as a result of long detention times.
Studying the relationship between driver compensation and safety is also on our near term agenda. In addition, we are looking to advance the state-of-the-art of fatigue models by developing a fatigue model that takes into account individual differences that provide a better prediction of individual driver performance.
We are studying whether certain individuals are more vulnerable to fatigue than others and then based on what we learn, a set of best practices for carriers will be developed to match drivers vulnerable to fatigue with more appropriate work schedules. All of this work takes us steps closer to identifying and addressing safety problems resulting from work hours and fatigue. Our goal is to develop and implement solutions in order to save lives – because this will make a difference in safety on our roads.
Conclusion Are we there yet? Are we as safe as we want to be? No, we are not. But we are moving forward.
We are making progress on our understanding of fatigue and what we are leaning is turning into highly effective life saving rules and other programs and initiatives that will help to eliminate serious and tragic crashes.
At DOT, our number one priority is to put safety first in order to save lives.
We won't rest until America's skies, roadways, railways and waterways are the safest they can possibly be. We are committed to working with you to do the same. Thank you all.

Seizures and Fever CausesFebrile seizures are classified into 2 types:
Children who have experienced a complex febrile seizure may be at risk for these outcomes:
Most fevers associated with febrile seizures are due to the usual causes of fever in young children—namely, common viral and mild bacterial infections such as ear infections. Although perhaps only 1% of children with febrile seizures have a serious infection of the central nervous system such as meningitis, this possibility should always be carefully considered in a child who has had a febrile seizure.

Farmers Deal With More Rain
Oct 26, 2005 — Farmers across the state are enduring one of the wettest Octobers on record. It should be a busy time on farms. But this fall, crops from soybeans to onions are still left in soggy fields. Gregory Warner spoke with agronomist Pete Barney of the Cornell Cooperative Extension of St. Lawrence County. He said there are some bright spots, and lots of problems. Go to full article
ID Chips for All Livestock
Oct 07, 2005 — The federal government is phasing in a national identification tracking system for livestock to help trace and curb threats, such as Mad Cow disease and even bio-terrorism. New York is even advancing what it calls micro-chip, injectable social security numbers for livestock. But many farmers worry that Big Brother may be moving into the barn. The Great Lakes Radio Consortium's Joyce Kryszak reports. Go to full article
School Cafeterias Embrace Local Food
Sep 13, 2005 — Food More and more schools, universities and other institutions with cafeterias are by-passing processed foods from multi-national corporations. Instead, they're buying food from local farmers. Advocates say locally-grown fruits and vegetables are fresher. They say the food tastes better, and they're finding kids sometimes ask for apples and tomatoes instead of candy and chips. The Great Lakes Radio Consortium's Julie Grant reports. Go to full article
Adirondack Growers Celebrate Harvest Season
Sep 13, 2005 — A coalition of farmers, businesses and communities in the Adirondacks is doing its part to promote locally grown products. "Adirondack Harvest" began about 5 years ago as an effort to encourage farmers to diversify and find new markets for local produce, eggs, dairy products and maple syrup. This week is the annual Harvest Festival Week with recipe Taste-offs, farm tours and a new cookbook. "Adirondack Harvest" coordinator Susie Becker told Todd Moe that her group includes counties and communities throughout the Adirondacks. Go to full article
Black River Cleanup Continues
Aug 15, 2005 — A massive spill of liquid manure in the Black River flowed slower than expected this weekend. Three million gallons of cow waste entered the river last week when a wall in a holding lagoon burst on Marks dairy farms south of Lowville. Hundreds of thousands of fish were killed. The Hudson River/Black River Regulating District released extra water from Stillwater Reservoir on Friday to help move the manure into Lake Ontario. According to News 10 Now, kayaking, rafting, and fishing outfitters along the river had to cancel hundreds of reservations. Steve Litwiler is a spokesperson for the Department of Environmental Conservation, which is handling the spill. He spoke with Todd Moe. Go to full article
Farmers Put Plastics Where They Belong
Aug 10, 2005 — A program to help farmers dispose of used agricultural plastics put more than 100 tons of the waste in the landfill. As David Sommerstein reports, the project is intended to spread the message that proper disposal of plastics isn't as expensive as many farmers think. Go to full article
Keeping Age-Old Farm Skills Alive
Aug 03, 2005 — Ox-team driving, blacksmithing, and timber framing are old-time skills. Picturesque throwbacks, you might think. But they're still useful -- especially so in parts of the world where tractors aren't available. And there is a place to go for school for them. The Great Lakes Radio Consortium's Tamar Charney pays a visit to Tillers International near Scotts, Michigan. Go to full article
Sound Portrait: "Chick Day" in Canton

Perfect Cups for The Dolce Gusto Machine
By Pat
from Surrey, BC
Use these cups all the time instead of the ones I purched for The Dolce Gusto Coffee Maker because these cups keep the beverage hotter longer due to the double glass. Can't wait to see if they keep my Cappuccino Ice Coffee and Ice Tea colder longer
very nice mugs
By Claire
from Montreal
Very nice design and coffee looks great when using with machines like nespresso or tassimo etc. with the look of coffee on bottom and milk on top. They are fragile though my husband dropped one in sink and it broke. I would buy again.
Very Fragile Product!
By CAROLE
from OTTAWA
Very light and I was impressed at first. However, mugs break easily!
Great Mugs
By Cegull
from Wellington Ontario
The are great mugs to use with the Dolce Gusto coffee maker. Keep your coffee warm because of the double glass just like a thermos.

Banks argue that clients want "skin in the game;" Volcker opposes watering down; Corzine weighs in
The fate of some of the largest hedge funds is being decided in Washington right now. But while Goldman Sachs and other banks are lobbying to keep capital in their hedge funds, Paul Volcker and Barney Frank are pushing back. Congress is scrambling to meld House and Senate versions of financial reform legislation, and the fine print chosen by lawmakers before the end of the month will have major ramifications for hedge funds tied to large banks, most notably the $50.4 billion in hedge fund assets managed by JPMorgan, including $17.9 billion in its Highbridge Capital Management subsidiary and $32.5 billion in its internal asset management division. Goldman Sachs Asset Management (GSAM), which manages $20.80 billion in hedge fund assets, would also be significantly affected. Congress faces a thorny challenge in trying to come up with a proposal that limits the risk to the taxpayer but also allows banks to...

Home » Strategies »
Buying an OEX call is one of the simplest and most popular strategies used by option investors employing OEX index options. It allows an investor the opportunity to profit from an upward move in the level of the OEX, while having much less capital at risk than with the outright purchase of scores of OEX component issues.
Buying an OEX index call gives the owner the right, but not the obligation, to buy the value of the underlying index at the stated exercise (strike) price upon exercise. If the contract is exercised, the call owner will receive its cash settlement amount: the difference between the call's strike price and the OEX exercise settlement value, times the $100 contract multiplier. American-style OEX index options may generally be exercised at any time prior to the expiration date. Any long OEX option (call or put) may be sold in the marketplace on or before its last trading day if it has market value. This is a bullish strategy because the value of the call tends to increase as the level of the OEX index rises, and this gain in option value will increasingly reflect a rise in the value of the OEX when its level moves above the call option's strike price. The profit potential for the long OEX call is unlimited as the OEX index continues to rise. The financial risk is limited to the total premium paid for the option, no matter how low the OEX declines. The break-even point is an OEX index level equal to the call's strike price plus the premium paid for the contract. As with any long option, an increase in volatility has a positive financial effect on the long OEX call strategy while decreasing volatility has a negative effect. Time decay has a negative effect.

Before the fireworks, families started their celebration early Monday evening with free activities offered by the city. Most people are looking ahead in the hopes of a more peaceful year.
The family friendly New Year's Eve celebration put on by the city included free iceskating at Manhattan Square Park.
At the Convention Center, family activities ranged from giant bounce houses and photo booths to a DJ dance party that got everyone ready for the celebration.
When asked what they wanted out of year 2013, most said good health and more time to spend with family.
"We do this every year, we love it, it's awesome the kids love it, the fireworks are awesome at the end."
And while families say a lot of great moments were shared this year, there are some things they hope to never see again.
"I usually base it on my own life and what's going on around me but I would say the tragedies that have gone on, have hit really hard. Connecticut, what happened in Webster on Christmas Eve, there's been too many of them," said Rebecca Markel, Brighton.
"I'd like to see less violence in 2013, the gun violence just seemed too much towards the last part of the year, I'd like to see a lot more people being nicer to people and a lot less violence is what we want to see," said Mark Liebeck, Churchville.
But in the end, New Year's Eve represents something much more powerful.
"To see that there's hope in life even admist tragedy. I think the New Year sets the precedence that you can start over and the way you've been and they way thinks have been going don't have to stay that way, I can change what's going on and be a difference in the world."

Answer Jay, There is not a sensor on the unit that would allow the water to not flow if the dispenser is broken. With the unit agitating even empty then you will want to check the fill hoses to make sure that the screens in the valve are clean. Also check the pressure hose to make sure that pressure hose is not clogged.

Answer Hi Deborah. The dispenser Drawer is part # 137440407. Remove the top (by removing the top/back T-20 screws). Then slide the top back, up and off. Look at the front inside cover and see if the 3-top or bottom inner clips are holding the inner white latch system. See if when you press the chrome outer disp. button, that the inside rods and release clips are all intact. If so then look at the side rail Guides part # 134657100. They are placed on the back dispenser tray Lt. And Rt. sides. If they are out of place and binding on the inner dispenser assy. There are 2- inner guide screws that hold thew guide rollers onto the tray. If you are not able to still remove the dispenser outer cover and tray, then try to carefully unclasp the top of the dispenser housing part # 137108710 will not break. Let me know how this all comes out. Thank You.
