The Daily Scope
Preparation, organization, and discipline are required. Get things in order so that you feel confident and ready to advance. A key to your success at this time is initiative, combined with confidence. Making certain that you are organizedpromotes self-confidence and achievement.
Today sparkles with love. You are able to easily express yourself in both tender words and caring actions. Your creativity is inspired. You want to direct your energy into bringing beauty into your life.
Today is made for relaxation. Give yourself permission to have a day off and enjoy yourself. You have been working incredibly hard, and this is a day to acknowledge that, and to celebrate. Your position is strong and secure; your accomplishments are many. Know that you have earned this. Celebrate your abundance!
Romance, joy, and celebrating life are priorities today. You need to get out of the humdrum and into the out-of-this-world- extraordinary! Let your imaginationloose and dare to dream! Faraway places, like mystical Shangri-La or magical Brigadoon, call to you.
Today, you feel, marks the beginning of a new chapter. You crave new horizons and sweeping vistas. You are ready for fresh adventures. Your mood is bold and risk-taking, which includes romance and passion.
Today you are filled with romantic idealism and you want to explore and learn more about the mysteries of love. Your interest is not only in the prosaic aspects of relationships, you are compelled by the poetry of love. Give yourself over to romantic reverie, perhaps in writing a love poem of your own. You speak the language of love fluently!
This is a day that favors rest and relaxation. This has been a busy week and youbenefit by having some time to think and to review. Quiet activities are restorative. Reading a good book, or being transported to another world by an engrossing film, stimulates your imagination and revitalizes you.
Today the stars speak of a powerful and positive shift of energies. After a very challenging week full of ups and downs, harmony is restored. You are giftedwith wisdom and understanding. You are able to perceive some recent difficulties as life lessons, and can understand how they are important foryour growth. Your creativity is inspired. Love has a special allure.
Today is a fluid, flowing day, where you gracefully balance various aspects of your life, and discover it's possible to achieve a sense of integration and wholeness. This is particularly evident in both your professional and personal life. Should today initially present some conflict, rest assured, it is really an opportunity to discover harmony.
You want to go traveling, which could include a journey of the mind. You are drawn to adventure and may have an entrepreneurial idea that you are excited about. Today favors activities that are dynamic and stimulating. The Moon and Venus create a flowing aspect which is wonderful for your creativity and also for a romance filled with the bright fire of warmth and passion.
The beauty of your home and spending quality time there is favored today. There, you are nurtured and renewed. The stars speak of your love life. You feel that some difficulties have passed, and now a more secure, prosperous, happy time is arriving.
The early morning hours could have you sorting through some rather foggy feelings about love. You want and need greater understanding and clarity. But all will clear; the sun will come out from behind the clouds, and an abundance of blue skies and sunshine are yours. Have no cloudy misgivings, love and intimacy are bright. Look to your destiny.

But for being too accurate with a pitch shot at 15 Woods would have been in the mix. With him in the mix butts tighten... but the 'rub of the green' is still a part of this game.
Followed Immelman and Cabrerra on Sunday's final round of the Tampa Bay Championship. Only about 3-4 other people followed them for the entire 18 holes. I couldn't believe that these two players with three majors between them only had a handful of spectators following them. I believe Cabrerra was very unhappy with his PING equipment after the TB tournament and switched back to the equipment that he used to win his Green Jacket and played well in Houston with the older model PINGS - I wasn't surprised that he challenged for another Green Jacket. He was playing with house money, didn't seem to show any signs of pressure yesterday. Still happy for Scott - was getting that label as the best player not to have won a major. Who gets that label now? Sergio? Schedeker?

Board seeks answers about cycling event
The UCI World Road Cycling Championships will take place in the Richmond region three years from this week, but Henrico County officials need more information before formally committing to climb aboard for the ride.
Officials from Richmond 2015 – the nonprofit organization that will host the nine-day international event – asked Henrico's Board of Supervisors during a Sept. 11 work session to contribute a total of $1.4 million to the championships during the next three years. But supervisors and County Manager Virgil Hazelett, while pledging support for the event in general terms, bristled at the request because it lacked the specifics they were expecting.
"It is clear to me that we do not have sufficient information," Hazelett said. "My main concern is the cost. I don't have a comfort level yet in what's going to happen."
Richmond 2015 has established a budget of $21.4 million, its CEO, William Flohr, told the board. The City of Richmond has committed a $2 million contribution, he said, and presentations to officials in Hanover and Chesterfield counties followed the visit to Henrico. The organization arrived at its $1.4 million request of Henrico by following the regional funding format that was used for the Greater Richmond Convention Center, to which Richmond contributed 50 percent, Henrico 35 percent, Chesterfield 13 percent and Hanover 2 percent.
Board 'disappointed' in approach
But it was clear during last week's work session that at least some county officials felt slighted by the organization's decision to approach them now to assist with an event that may have quickly outgrown its original scope – and by the implication among some in the public that the county was not being a regional partner.
During a steady and pointed line of questioning, Brookland District Supervisor and board chairman Dick Glover expressed as much, suggesting that Richmond 2015 officials had dropped the ball by waiting more than 18 months to meet with the full Henrico board.
He implied that if the organization had involved Henrico from the beginning (in late 2010), the county would have felt more like a true partner and less like a bank account.
"I am very disappointed that this is almost two years after [the process began] that the Board of Supervisors of Henrico County has been approached," Glover said. "I feel like you've left us out of the picture, and now you're coming to us with not enough information."
Varina District Supervisor Tyrone Nelson was similarly unimpressed.
"You came to us and gave us nothing today," Nelson told the organization's contingent. "I think it's a healthy promotion for our region, but you're asking us to spend a million and a half dollars that are not in our budget. We each have capital improvement projects [awaiting funding] in our districts, and I've got people in my district ready to shoot me because we don't have a new school yet."
Nelson also suggested that if the county were to donate the requested $1.4 million, it should receive more than just one of the 12 races scheduled for the nine-day event – particularly if Richmond's $2 million donation is enough to earn it nine races. (Hanover and Chesterfield also would receive one race each by contributing to the event, Richmond 2015 organizers said.)
Flohr, who joined Richmond 2015 in April, conceded that the organization might have done some things differently before his arrival, in retrospect.
"It perhaps should have been a regional effort," he said, "and we're trying to make it into a regional effort now."
Economic impact debated
Henrico stands to realize a $42 million economic benefit from the event, Flohr said; some 450,000 spectators are expected to attend the races. Flohr told the board that Henrico would receive an additional $832,000 in hotel and lodging taxes during the nine-day period, but Hazelett questioned his math, saying that the county typically receives about that much during the month of September, when the occupancy rate is about 60 percent.
"We can't double that [amount] in nine days with only 40 percent vacancy available," Hazelett said.
The race proposed for Henrico is the initial time trial for men and women, which might begin in Short Pump and travel east to its conclusion in the city. That race would be televised live on a national network, Flohr said. But though Henrico would receive commercials during the broadcast and the opportunity for other exposure, Flohr could provide no specific details. The organization must purchase TV time from a network and has not yet completed the negotiation process, he said.
Tuckahoe District Supervisor Pat O'Bannon told Flohr that the board would need to see a specific list of the benefits it would receive for a $1.4 million donation before determining how to proceed.
Hazelett expressed serious concerns about the costs associated with heavy police and security needed to protect the 1,000 cyclists – some of whom will represent nations with volatile political climates – as well as spectators and citizens.
Those costs, combined with shutting down more than 60 intersections for the race, could total nearly $500,000, Hazelett said – money that he said should be deducted from any donation Henrico makes.
To date, Richmond 2015 has financial commitments from five corporate partners totaling more than $2 million, but Flohr declined to name those companies. He promised Hazelett and the board that he would have specific details and answers to their questions by the first week of October, however.
The UCI event, which began in 1927 and has been held annually since (except for a seven-year period during World War II), will be held in The Netherlands this year, Italy next year and Spain in 2014. The United States has hosted it only once, in Colorado Springs in 1986.

Journey to mediocrity
'The Hundred-Foot Journey' fails to capitalize on tasty concept
The Hundred-Foot Journey is a curious little Romeo and Juliet of a film. A family, forced out of their native India, begins a trek across Europe.
The family's sole mode of transportation sputters and dies in a sleepy little French town, but the town's food culture is high, and that's a perfect place for a family of restaurateurs to settle down. There's only one problem – the family's rustic "Maison Mumbai" is right across the street (a hundred feet away, if the title didn't clue you in) from a prestigious French bistro with a Michelin star, run with an iron fist by the dreaded Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren, pictured).
It's here that a particular Romeo and Juliet story begins to develop, with Hassan (Manish Dayal) on the Indian side and Marguerite (Charlotte Le Bon) on the French side. > Read more.

Short Pump brewery offers more than just beer
I am still (happily) thinking about my entire experience at Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery last week. Knowing nothing about this new brewery out of Denver, I was leery of brew-pub in the heart of Short Pump Town Center – this is not what I'd usually think of as a perfect fit, and yet, it was.
The restaurant and craft brewery opened in early June and features 10 beers made by female brewmaster Becky Hammond (pictured). This is the restaurant's second location in Virginia; the first is in Arlington. Behind glass walls, customers watched the beer brewing in massive steel barrels. For our up-and-coming beer region, it makes sense that Short Pump would jump on board.
As I walked up to the back of the mall near the comedy club, I was taken aback by what I saw: at the top of the stairs was an overflowing restaurant with outdoor seating, large umbrellas and dangling outdoor lights. > Read more.

Posted in The Science of Wine
Drinking wine is more than simply consuming it, it involves taste. Taste is a reaction that doesn't require thought but it is very complex. The average person has 5,000 taste buds. Trying to decipher all of types of tastes can be proven difficult. There are many basic taste profiles found in wine. In order to fully taste and appreciate the wine you must learn what those tastes are; with time you will be able to recognize each distinct flavor. The main flavors found in wine are sweet, bitter, tannin, fruit and varietal characteristics, and aftertaste.
The basic taste profiles on the tongue are sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami (salt). Sweet flavors can be found on the tip of your tongue. Therefore if there are any sweet elements in the wine that will be the first flavor recognized. Acidity is the term in wine for a sour note. This flavor is found on the sides of your tongue closer to your cheeks. Acidity is more common in lighter-style red wines and white wines. They regularly contain more sour profiles.
Bitterness is found on the back of your tongue. It is very hard to ignore. Mostly this can be found near the end of the taste and can lead to the aftertaste. Tannin can be found in the middle of the tongue. Tannin can be found in either red wines or white wines aged with wood. Tannin is a sensation instead of a flavor. This sensation is why many don't like red wines. Tannins are an acquired sensation. In white wines, tannin can dry the palate to excess. In red wines, tannins can actually coat your mouth.
Fruit and varietal characteristics are smells. You can tell the body of the wine from the fruit content. This will be found on the middle of your tongue. The aftertaste includes the overall taste and the balance of the flavors and sensations in your mouth. The amount of time the tastes linger can show the quality of the wine. The time the aftertaste can last varies from one to three minutes.
The best way to learn about these flavors is to think while you drink! You will be able to enjoy the wine much more if you realize what you are drinking. The easiest ways to determine what type of wine you prefer is to know the science behind your choice. If you like tannin then you might prefer an oaked chardonnay or a cabernet sauvignon. Knowing all these flavors, sensations, and smells comes with time. The more you drink and think; the more you learn what and why you like each wine.

Brogurt, Yogurt For Bros
by Cristen Conger | February 26, 2013
In 2001, Dannon attempted the seemingly impossible: turn yogurt into a "man food." Speaking to The New York Times about its new ad campaign clearly aimed at a male demographic then-marketing president Eric Leventhal said, "Yogurt is not just a woman thing." And so its new manly commercials showed gritty construction workers….doing a choreographed dance while stirring their yogurt in time? Real tough stuff.

This photo was taken the last time I remember seeing Grandma Sylvia smile. Alzheimer's had already set in – she came to our engagement party in a hired ambulance and wasn't sure why she was there. For the five years thereafter we only saw her in bed, where she withered away until her death. Sylvia suspected she was going to get Alzheimer's. She saw what happened to her own mother (though it wasn't diagnosed as Alzheimer's back then), bought long term health insurance, downsized early and gave her children specific instructions to always keep her at home.
It has now been just over three weeks ago that my Mom passed away from Alzheimer's. I hate this disease. It may have taken her from me three weeks ago but in reality it has been 7 years. This was her second time in Hospice but I knew that this time she would not and could not rally back as she did the first time.
My early up-close-and-personal experience with Alzheimer's was when my mother-in-law Bea Lerner called at 3am to complain about a strange man in her house. My wife and life-partner, Trish, and I immediately went there to find only one man in the house, her husband. When asked about a strange man, Bea pulled us aside and carefully pointed to her husband, saying "that's the strange man, he's nice but I don't know him". After that, the powerful pull of the Alzheimer's downward spiraling trajectory never let up.

Residuals are compensation paid for the reuse of a credited writer's work. When you receive credit on produced Guild covered material, you are entitled to compensation if the material is reused. It is important to understand that the compensation is for reuse, and not the original use. For example, if you are hired to write an episode of a network prime time television series, the compensation you are paid for writing services includes the episode's initial broadcast. However, when that episode reruns on a network, in syndication, or in any other market, the Company must pay you for that reuse.
Similarly, for theatrical motion pictures, the compensation you are paid for your script, either as a purchase or employment, covers the exhibition of the film theatrically, including all foreign theatrical releases. However, when your movie is released to other markets, such as dvd or pay television, you are due residuals.

Imagine life on a spaceship headed to Mars. You and your five crewmates work, exercise, and eat together every day under the glow of fluorescent lights. As the months pass, the sun gets dimmer and communication with Earth gets slower. What does this do to your body? According to an Earth-based experiment in which six volunteers stayed in a windowless "spaceship" for nearly a year and a half, the monotony, tight living space, and lack of natural light will probably make you sleep more and work less. Space, for all intents and purposes, turns you into a couch potato.
A mission to Mars would take about 520 days-including the months it takes to travel there and back and the time spent on the Red Planet. But the longest any human has spent off Earth is 437 days straight, a record set in 1995 by Russian cosmonaut Valeri Polyakov, who was orbiting relatively close to home in the space station Mir. Polyakov seemed to bear the burden of long space flight fairly well, but many questions remain about just what a long mission farther from the sun would do to astronauts' ability to sleep and keep energized.
For answers, scientists turned to the Mars500 mission simulation in Moscow, which ended in November 2011. Six crewmen-who are an international mix of astronaut trainers, engineers, and doctors between 27 and 38 years old-stayed in a series of tunnellike chambers and played out the 520-day mission to Mars. "It was thought to be a safe way to try to begin to understand those questions instead of just launching into an extremely long space flight," says study co-leader and sleep scientist David Dinges of the University of Pennsylvania. The crew could communicate with the outside world, but with a time delay depending on how far the mission was supposed to be from Earth. Halfway through the mission, the volunteers even worked on a simulated martian landscape inside a large room with a sandy floor and a black ceiling dotted with fake stars. Throughout the experiment, video cameras and activity-monitoring wristwatches recorded the crew's movements, enabling scientists to observe how often the crew members slept and how much of their time awake was spent lazing about.

Hunting stories
Lets hear your hunting stories!!!!!!
My mothers brothers (uncles) plus the buddies they grew up with all hunted together for many years. They managed to go to Vermont thru a co-worker back in the 50's. They stayed on a 625acre farm. Back in 73 my cousin invited me to go bear hunting with him in October were we stayed in a small home made trailer that my uncles fabricated. Arriving in Vt. by noon after lunch we started out heading down an old logging road into the national forest. We found three old apple orchards while going up the side of a mountain. We sat at the top of the last apple orchard. There were bird hunters in the lower orchard. When they left it got really quiet. Within 15 minutes we heard something heading towards us in the high brush. It was a blackbear. It got about 20 yds from me and a little bird got into the tree above me and sang its heart out to the beat of "GO Back" there are hunters infront of you. Well that blackbear got the message and went down around us and stayed out of sight and went up behind us and got to go were it wanted to go towards the top of the mountain. We spooked that bear for 4 days and never got a shot but it was so exceiting just to be that close to it. It was just so much fun to stalk it even though we never harvested it. This was my very first big game hunting experience. BB
Back in '86 we purchased land in the same town were my uncles stayed on the farm so what they started would continue for the future generations in my family. Making the trek to VT to hunt every fall has been awesome and so much fun. We spent many vacations with the kids there too. Its a place were you can fire a BB gun with no one complaining and even fire guns with nothing said. My camp is in the backwoods of VT smack in the green mountains you can hunt from my deck. Tubing on the white river and getting the biggest ice cream for $1 they call it a creme. It proves you don't have to spend a lot of $$ on a vacation to have fun. We rode quads and dirtbikes and mini bikes too. It was the best investment of 10k i ever spent for the 7 1/4 acres.

Re: Hunting stories
I've always wanted to go bear hunting, but dad isn't too keen on the idea (chicken ). I want him to take me somewhere like Canada or Alaska when I graduate.... we have black bears here, but I think it'd be neat to travel and go after a bigun' . I'd also settle for caribou or moose..... I absolutely love my white tail deer hunting, but I get the urge every now and then to go after something exotic
Great story - I probably would've passed out had I been that close

Re: Hunting stories
In the fall of '74 my older brother came with us and a writer for a local outdoor magazine (Jack)came with us. When we first got to VT we hit a place near Rutland to hunt. Jack didn't have his hunting license yet so he went off with my cousin who had his bow for deer hunting. We split up and me and my brother hit the thick pines. We spooked something big out of the pines maybe a moose. There were bear signs all over the apple orchard that day. Very fresh claw marks in the trees too. When we got back together Jacks knees were knocking. We deceided to go to the camp and our plan was to head up to our usual bear hunt haunt the next morning. Jack got his hunting license by now too.
As we went into the national forest trail at 5am we had a bobcat on our right side and a bear on our left side all the way up the trail in the dark. The bear would hoot at the cat and the cat would growl back. All we had were 2 cell flashlites. Vermont adds new meaning to the word dark. You can't see your hand infront of your face. We got to the upper orchard by first light. We sat for a little while but we were still being watched. As we left to go back down the mountain the bear followed us and hooted at us the whole way down. As we got off the trail near the access road we seen bear tracks in the mud. Of course they look bigger in the mud but my brother got a little more nervous anyway. In '75 my brother was reluctant to come with us. It was quite a few years before my brother would go with us again. But he would never go in the woods in the dark again. He had to be out before dark too. I guess this bear really spooked him. I once found large bear tracks in the snow at 3:30pm and my brother said its getting dark lets go. It was just the shadow of the mountains with the sun going down. It got to the point the bear was having fun with us. Every year we chased it and it never gave us a shot at it. I'm not sure if we taught it or it taught us. We finally agreed to just let it go, so we stayed away from that area for a while. The last time we were up there its droppings were around a 1/2 of a 5 gallon bucket he was a bigg'n by then. Just stalking it was fun knowing it was there and so were we.
No one has any hunting stories???????

Re: Hunting stories
Well, I dont have any stories about a bear stalking me but at the family farm where I hunt, I have sighted I suppose what you would call a north american panther ? Or perhaps a cougar (do they come in black?? ). Two or three seasons ago , I was in a tripod stand on the south end of our block of woods. It had been a quiet morning, and I was getting quite hungry. I whipped out a slim jim and started fiddling with the wrapper. When I looked up after having taken a bite, I saw the black cat move from the left to the right, out of some brush , walked 10 yards, then into more brush. All of this was 25 yards in front of me. Needless to say i was quite shocked. I really only caught a good view of the hindquarters and tail, but I could see the whole body stalk through the brush. I waited a while until I felt it was "safe", and rode the 4 wheeler back home. That evening, I sat in a stand on the north end of the block. A little before dusk, I heard something moving in the brush off to my right at about 2 o'clock. It was big.........I'm thinking, yay a deer! Then it let out this hair-raising moan/ growl (just like a tiger on animal planet). Sure, I know better than to shoot at a noise, but I knew no one was in there with me as we have no neighbors. And I knew no one could imitate that sound. I sent two shots that way and all but slid down the ladder and jumped on the fourwheeler. As to what it was, I never saw and I didnt care to find out.
Since then, once, maybe twice a year, we'll see the LARGE cat tracks in the freshly disked fields. They are not a dog, and way too big for a bobcat. Myself, my mother, sister, and I think maybe my grandma have seen "a cat". The SC DNR totally denies black cats exist in North America, but it's funny that they add a note in the Rule book - "If you think you've seen a large cat, please call xxx-xxx-xxxx " . Anyways, that's my story and I'm stickin' to it. I know what I saw. I hope one day to get a better look. Until then, you'll have to believe me

I know south Georgia is a long way from you, but it is a documented fact that there was a pair of black Panthers ranging through by our plant a few years back. Have not heard anything about them of late. Maybe they went up your way.

Re: Hunting stories
Mr Roy,
The farmstead is in the lower (eastern) part of the state, a little ways below Florence. While it is probably more or less the same distance as the house in Simpsonville to Southern Georgia, it is roughly the same landscape/ terrain as south Georgia. I guess the SC DNR doesn't care to branch out and read the news?? As pretty as (I'm sure) they are.........you can have 'em back !!!!!!

Re: Hunting stories
OK I could only think of one good story. Lived in the city.....backed out of my driveway to go to the store. Came back and my neighbor showed up at my door with a dead pidgeon in a zip lock baggie, crying I killed her baby. I guess it was in the street and I backed over it. She called me a baby killer. She then called the sherriff on me. When they showed up to talk to me I was like......if her bird was that stupid not to move maybe it wanted to die. Anyway I explained they were always roosting above my driveway and pooping everywhere. Here in California they are a nusince bird and he told me I could get a permit and shoot them. Si I did....she never let her birds loose again...I wasn't her favorite neighbor after that....but it was good hunting just the same.....

Re: Hunting stories
Brother # 3 and #4 went out to sight in a 50 cal black powder rife with new scope. Brother #3 fires off several rounds then hands the rifle to brother #4. Brother #4 fires off a round and has a mark above his eye where the rifle kick shoved the scope into his eye brow. Brother #3 who is a bit shorter shoots off another couple of rounds. Nothing serious. Brother #3 fires off another round. Kick shoves the scope into the bridge of #3's nose, splitting it wide open. Blood spraying all over brother #3 glasses. Brother #4 takes one look and runs to the pickup. Grabs a bag and runs back. Brother #3 thinks brother #4 is running to get the first aid kit to stop the bleeding.
Brother #4 tells brother #3 to put his glasses back on, opens up the bag, take out a camera. Says, I want to get a picture of this.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: Hunting stories
Spiveyman, they sated NC did not have any panthers either. However on a nice foggy NC morning. I had pistol range duty. I arrived about 45 minutes early, wanted to be on time(they told me the wrong time). The pistol range was about 100yds from a set of barracks, and 50 ft from the main road. Shortly after my arrival a corp. showed up. We were sitting there drinking coffee and talking. When a black cat about the same size as a moutnain lion walked out of the brush and sat right there 20yds from us. It sat there a good 10 minutes then just walked away. we decided to go look and there was big cat tracks in the mud. When the Capt. showed up we told him. He just laughed, then called the base warden to prove we were wrong. The base warden was there in 5 minutes. He said he had seen the same cat. However the NC DNR said they did not exist. He was glad that we had seen it and it was reported. We later talked to a NC DNR rep. he told us that we did not see a panther. I wish there were digital cameras back then.
Re: Hunting stories
funny hunting story, I have had 2 hunting partners for the past 18yrs. 1 of the guys is older and the other is my age. about our 3rd year hunting together, Bart who is my age(bart is a nickname -Simpsons). decided to save some money and get an all around license vs buying each 1 seperate. Robbie who is the older only gets his shotgun license. We duck hunted everyday we had off, and the occasional pheasant hunt. We always left my house at 5am to go duck hunting, boat ramp is at the end of my street. opening morning we got everything ready to go. Off we go, we get set up all the decoys out, the perfect morning for opening day. Me and Robbie get our coffee out and start talking about the season to come. That is when we heared Bart shuffleing through his gun box. Asked him if he forgot his shells, replied nope. Asked him if he forgot his gun, replied nope. Asked him if he forgot his calls, replied nope. He then replied he forgot his license. So back we go to the ramp. Un hooked my truck and he drove back to my house to get his license. So we sat at the boat ramp for the first 20 minutes of opening days. since he had the all around license it was on his bow case since he was bow hunting the day before.
3 weeks later Bart and Robbie were going pheasant hunting. Suppose to meet at 7am at the fire house. At 8am Bart had not showed up, so Robbie left. At 830 Bart called, so of pheasant hunting they go. It was an hours drive to the state land where they were going to hunt. Upon arrival, they get out and put all their hunting clothes on, about that time Bart started figetting through his shell box. Bart had forgot his license again, it was back home on his bow case. So another hour ride home, to get his license.
He has not bought an all around license since.
Re: Hunting stories
OK, I guess it is my turn. How to get your first deer and take your kids hunting at the same time.
I had been hunting with my Father In Law for a year or two before getting my first deer. Always something would go wrong, and opening day in 2006 was no exception. I was sick as a dog with the flu. Alarm goes off at 5:30 am on Saturday, I don't even bother with the snooze button and just go back to bed. Wife wakes me up to double check I don't want to go hunting. Nope, too sick. Well, it is now 7:30 or so and I am sleeping. Kids burst into the room, "Dad Dad! There are deer under your stand." The stand is 175 yards from the house, I tell the kids to just leave me alone. 3 minutes later, "Dad Dad! there are deer in the back yard!!!" There are 9 does standing 75 yards from the house in the back yard. Since it seems my kids don't care that I'm sick, I figure I'll humor hoping the deer will go away. I stumble out of bed, open the gun safe and retrieve slug gun and ammo, making lots of noise (to scare off the deer) I open the bedroom window. Deer just stand there, don't even notice me at all. I sit down on floor, load gun hoping the deer will leave. No such luck. Take aim at the lead doe and whisper to my kids, "cover your ears, this might be a little loud".
BANG! (yes 12 gauge slug guns are loud). Doe runs about 100 yards and drops like a rock. Kids are bouncing up and down singing "Dad got a deer!" over and over again. Wife notices that I'm not has happy as everyone else is, but I am doing my best to hide it. "You know I now have to field dress that darn thing now." I whisper to my wife.
There is nothing better than having 9 other veterian hunters watch me field dress this deer (and of course offer differing advice) to keep the peer pressure up not to get sick while doing so. I have been hooked on deer hunting ever since, but my friends do take great pleasure in buying me hunter orange PJ's. And yes, when it is 8 degrees out and I look up at my house, I still wish I could hunt from bed.

Re: Hunting stories
When I was able to walk good and my older brother was alive we would walk all over the place hunting we never sat in one spot for too long. We would drive my 4x4 as far as we could go, pack some snacks and head up the mountain on foot. On this one occasion i packed one of those throw away camera's with me. There was about 3" of fresh falled snow on the ground as we headed up to one of my favorite spots. First we came across blackbear tracks which appeared to be a mother and cub and thinking about being there if we see the cub or her i don't want to shoot one or the other if she protects her baby. So we started to back out of there when i seen a very large cat track. I knew it was a mountainlion track right away. We put a pack of cigarette's next to it to show the size comparision and i snapped the pics. This was back around the late 80's. Now i'm positively sure there are mountainlions in VT in the higher elevations. They call the mountainlions "catamounts" in vermont for some reason but there still mountainlions for sure. Almost a decade later in the late 90's while returning to my camp after having supper at my neighbors house on the other side of the valley me, my wife and son caught the back 2/3rds of a mountainlion going into the high grass in the field not too far from my neighbors house with its 3' long curly tail. Judging by what i saw i would estimate it between 180 to 200lbs it was that big. The very next morning while gassing up his dirtbike for a ride my son and i heard a loud growl from up on the ridge above us. I knew right away this mountainlion was near us. After a few low growls it left and i never heard it or seen it again. But i figure that since there multiplying and needing more food to support them there moving into the low lands to search for food.
I did tell my neighbor about what we saw and he kind of laughed at us. Then he talked with the neighbor who lives above him and she said she is from Colorado and knows what mountainlions look like and she is seeing them too.
The bottomline is most people i tell my story too laugh at me. They say that mountainlions are extinct in these parts. With all the millions of acres of forest land can they actually say they killed every mountainlion. How could they be so sure. Lets face it i looked for 10 years after seeing the tracks to see one because there so elusive.
Now i have also noticed that the coyotes in VT some of them appear to be the size of a female german shepards. From the ones i have seen shot close up so I think there actually wolves. So i mentioned that to other hunters but really got no good answer why. If i mentioned about wolves they would laugh at me too. Soon after I read an article about the canadian wolves crossing the frozen water in upper new york state into the US from canada and there interbreeding with our coyotes making a larger wolf type coyote. Now thinking about them crossing into the US I thought why didn't anyone think about the mountainlions doing the same crossing into the US too?
We had a northest mountain lion reporting site but do to hecklers and non believers it was shut down. People would report seeing mountainlions from all over the northeast. Having these reports are like getting warnings to becareful if your in that area camping or hiking or even in your back yard with small kids. We had reports from most of the northeast states too. Some from populated places you wouldn't believe possible too. And it would be multiple posts about the same area too. I'll post the sightings i can remember.
Newtown (lake zoar dam area a mountainlion was seen by a newspaper night delivery truck driver he was shocked to actually see it)
New Milford (mountainlion was spotted in a housing development a populated area)
Falls Village (housitonic river area)
Thomaston My wife and Daughter seen a mountainlion laying down eating something maybe a deer it was too ocupied and busy to see them it was behind a fallen log. My son seen tracks in the snow while walking the family dog near their condo. This is near blackrock state park were many reports of a resident mountainlion is staying there too its probably the same one as in the condo area.
Wells area wild life management area/swamp not far from the shoreline.( Mulitple reports too.)
Granville In the area of the national forest near the bowel mill(female with kittens spotted playing with an empty gallon milk jug.)
Rutland Rural area mailman spotted a mountainlion while delivering mail (again a semi populated area with small kids)
My point is to educate your kids to be aware it may just save there lives. There seems to be mountainlion sighting reports from many states now too. Its not just the northeast.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.
Re: Hunting stories
No flame for me, I ran over my neighbor lapsa apso (what ever you call it) with my full size suburban. I swerved to miss the kid chasing it and hit the dog with my right rear tire. The rear tire went up pretty high and slammed down on the dog. I figured the dog tried to hold the truck up like charles atlas holds up the world. The kid ran out from a row of very tall bushes along the road side. I took the dog in the center of the truck to miss the kid at the sametime but it caught the rear tire. I saved the kid but the dog was road pizza. I had to go home to call the police at the time. When the woman who owned the dog got home as the cop arrived she told the cop the dog was tied in the back yard. Soon after this woman would stop at my mailbox and chant some voodoo crap on me. I always had bad luck anyway so its hard to tell if the voodoo stuff worked.

Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Put tractor in gear and bump the starter. If tractor moves then, my guess is the loss of compression is due to a valve stuck open, probably the exhaust valve. Note: A bit of caution, tractor will lurch either forward or backward. Also make sure the PTO clutch is disengaged.

Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Keep in mind that the 108 has a Kohler engine with automatic compression release. This keeps the valves open until the flywheel is spinning fast enough, this way the starter/generator can crank the engine faster and make it easier to start. Also, the spark plug is typically not centered in the piston. It's actually almost over the wall of the cylinder, between the valves and the piston, but it is closer to the piston than the valves. You can put a long, thin screwdriver down in the spark plug hole and into the cylinder, but you should turn the crank by hand, NOT with the starter. If the screwdriver doesn't move, she's got a broken connecting rod.
If you tear into it, get it on a bench and pull the oil pan. If the rod is broken, there will be pieces in the oil pan. Look closely up at the bottom of the cylinder bore. Typically when a rod breaks, it punches a chunk out of the bottom of the cylinder bore. If that's the case, the engine's junk. Some people will rebuild them, but you've got about a 50/50 chance of it blowing up again after the rebuild.

Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
That is certainly good news to hear! Knowing nothing about these engines I was happy to learn about a compression release feature. I snaked a piece of copper wire down and around and was able to feel the piston move. Maybe it won't be such a big job getting this thing running after all? Thanks so much for the info gitractorman.
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Look down the sparkplug hole to see if the piston is going up and down first. If it doesn't pull the engine. If it does I would pull the head and you probably have a stuck open exhaust valve. You need to pull the head anyway to clean the carbon from around the exhaust valve and replace the headgasket anyway. Like i said before i replaced the headgasket on every cadet i purchased so far they all were blown out.
Pull the ign cover and clean the points, clean the carb by removing the fuel bowel, drain and wash out the gas tank if there is old gas in it too, then start it up and if it does run good i would put seafoam in the gas and change the crankcase oil and add seafoam to the crankcase oil too.
The black paint job is no problem. With the winter approaching us its time to get it running first to make sure it runs and drives ok then disassemble it as much as you can and start wire brushing all the sheetmetal and get it ready to paint cadet yellow.
I never trust anyone when they said they had it running or it ran. The last guy here told me that the cadet 1000 had a broken connecting rod and a blown clutch so i knew he never fired it up. He took it on a trade in for another lawn mower. I never take any word, but to make up for me taking a loss i haggle it even lower in the purchasing process just incase its a parts tractor. After all if its a non runner than its a parts tractor till i get it running.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
So far I have not figured out how to get 12 volts from the battery to the starter. When I put a jumper directly to the starter terminals it spins. But from the battery cables under the seat there is a lost connection somewhere. I've cleaned up the ground connection for the negative battery cable and the contacts at the voltage regulator, the coil and the starter itself. What do I check next - the ignition switch? This Cadet has sat out in the weather for a long tme. The seat was left up so the the regulator was directly exposed to the rain for who knows how long. Could a bad regulator interfere with the starter circuit?
I did mangage to push her up under a tin shed roof out of the direct weather at least.
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Solenoid under the dash. Also there is a clutch safety switch under the tractor. Usually the clutch safety switch is the problem.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Does this help?
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
It did turn out to be the safety switch at the clutch. I just pushed the clutch in and it turns right over. I would not have thought to check for that because I thought safety switches were a later nuisance development. Rudi, thanks for the schematic. It lays it all out perfectly. I don't see that particular diagram in the Kohler manual ou sent me (all 147 pages of it!) Thank you all for all the help. I'll probably need a stronger battery to spin it fast enough and I will undoubtadly have to take the carb apart and clean it before it will start and run...
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
When trying the starter only take off the belt and run jumper cables directly to the starter terminal the largest cable is the positive one and ground the other. This will allow the starter to fly at a higher rpm cleaning the armature so it will have more torque when you crank the engine over. I have also bypassed the ignition system this way to fire them up. I run one jumper wire to the ign coil too.
I just want to hear it run asap then i know where i stand with it. If she runs then i take it apart and clean every electrical connection there is. There is also a switch on the PTO engagement lever too.
One quick check on the headgasket is too look at the seam on the left side and the front. You will see carbon or oil seeping out of the seam where the headgasket is. Seeing this tells me the headgasket is blown and everytime its been right.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Well, I wish I could get her started in time for her 40th birthday but...
I took your advice Bill and spun the starter for a minute or two with no load. Now the engine turns over with the ignition key.
Next I had no spark at the plug until I lightly took an ignition file to the points a swipe or two. Now it fires hot enough.
Then I removed the carburator and cleaned it best I could short of having cleaner to soak it in. I'm sure it'll probably need to be soaked.
Which leads me to the gas tank:
...It is probably more full of old varnish and sludge than actual rust. It had about 1 1/2 gallons of old gas sitting in it for who knows how many years. The gas cap seals so well it kept it from evaporating I guess and the gas line out the bottom was so plugged up the old gas couldn't leak out. So the inside of the tank is a mess!
I've just been reading about soap and water and sheet metal screws and muratic acid and that all sounds so futile, at least in a baffeled tank, that I looked up an on-line parts place that wanted way more for a new replacement tank than the tractor cost! Is it really possible to successfully clean the inside of a gas tank like this?
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
The simple answer is yes. I have already cleaned two small steel gas tanks quite successfully with my electrolysis tanks. You simply attach the tank to the negative side of the tank and the positive to the re-bar and turn on the charger. It will clean that tank rather nicely. It will require a number of rinses to ensure the oxidation all comes off.
I am not a real fan of bb's, rocks, nuts, bolts, tying the tank to a rear wheel and spinning it for a while.. I like the ease of electrolysis. No muss, no fuss no bother. Turn it on and forget it for a day or so... then rinse.

Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
Pour out what you can from the tank and fill it with paint thinner or lacquer thinner and let it soak. you may have to dump it and refill it several times but it should clean up.

Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
I gotter running today!!! I ended up cleaning out the tank with muriatic acid. It didn't look rusted up enough to merit electolysis but way too gunked up for paint thinner. I worked and worked on getting all the crap out of the carburater. And with a new battery it has started right up several times in a row this afternoon. The engine sounds real healthy too and doesn't seem to smoke at all. Next I have to figure out how to get the clutch working. It's hung up and does not disengage. I learned this by sitting on the tractor with it running for the first time while ago and even with the clutch pedal pushed down the gears would grind trying to get it in gear. I accidently shoved it into 3rd gear and off I went for a wild ride around the yard with the only way of stopping turning off the ignition. But my very next step needs to be changing the oil. Only one small problem with that...I'm too stupid to find the drain plug!
Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
You almost have to drop the mower deck and mule drive / hanger assembly from the tractor to access the oil drain plug. It is directly above the steel plate on the hanger assembly. Take those off and you'll see it.
The driveline is easy to disassemble. Take the tunnel cover off (white cover just below the gear shifter). Once you have that open, you can see how to pull the drive shaft and clutch apart. It's not complicated, and it's easier to take it apart than to pry on things and try to get the clutch to free up.

Re: 108 In Need Of Rescue
That sounded like way too much work until I saw how easily the deck drops down with two spring loaded pins. The hanger assembly only took a couple pieces of baling wire to remove and then there was that steel (skid?) plate to unscrew. So now it has a fresh change of oil.
Tomorrow it's the tunnel cover then. Meanwhile is this the 42" deck? At least that's what it measures from tip to tip of the outer blades?

It provided guidance to NATO's military authorities and oversaw the force planning process. The force planning process identifies NATO's military requirements, sets planning targets for individual countries to contribute to those requirements, and assesses the extent to which members meet those targets and provide other forces and capabilities to the Alliance.
Momentarily, just before being dissolved, all member countries were represented on the DPC. However, between 1966 and April 2009, France was not represented on this committee as a consequence of its withdrawal from the integrated military structure.

Nobody expected the Detroit Pistons to draft yet another guard, but at this stage of the rebuilding game, you draft talent and fit pieces around it, not the other way around.
Brandon Knight shares his thoughts about joining the Detroit Pistons. Also, new owner Tom Gores outlines just how patient he'll be during the Pistons' turnaround.
At least you can't say Joe Dumars didn't draft a big man.
The Pistons opted against drafting a big man for the second straight pick, taking Duke's Singler at No. 33. But has he already reached his ceiling?

Thursday, the same guy pulled off the stuff of legends. The guy who didn't hit a
home run in almost four weeks became the 14th player in Major League history to hit
four home runs in one game. He set a Major League single-game record with 19
total bases. He went 6-for-6 with a double and single against the last-place
Milwaukee Brewers. He drove in seven runs, scored six.
Green set franchise single-game records for most home runs, most runs scored
and most total bases. He tied club records with five extra-base hits and six
total hits. One homer was a three-run shot, three were solos, the last one part
of back-to-back-to-back blasts in the ninth inning.
When Green sat out Saturday's game against Montreal, his average down to .230,
his name on the lineup card was listed with other Dodger reserves -- Dave
Hansen, Alex Cora, Jeff Reboulet. Today his name is right there with Lou Gehrig
and Willie Mays.
As the team headed for the weekend showdown in Arizona, it did so with hard
proof of what could happen if the Green that hit 49 home runs last year is back.
His four home runs were only half the team's total, the eight homers in one game another franchise single-game record. Joining Green in the home-run trot were Brian Jordan, Hiram Bocachica, Adrian Beltre and Dave Hansen. Marquis Grissom
had a ninth home run pulled back into the park by Milwaukee left fielder Geoff
"See what Greenie can do when he's in a zone?" said Jordan, who was on the St. Louis disabled list when Mark Whiten hit four home runs in a 1993 game in Cincinnati. "This is what it's all about, getting all of us clicking at the same
time. Greenie's finally relaxing, I'm finally relaxing. This was exciting, but it was exciting enough to have an 8-1 lead in the second inning. It was a breath of fresh air."
The 16-3 whacking with a 19-hit attack followed a 1-0 win, examples of just how unpredictable this Dodger offense is.
The beneficiary of the windfall was Kazuhisa Ishii, who needed it. The lefty raised
his record to 7-1 but struggled pitching with a lingering strained hip flexor.
He lasted only 5 1/3 innings, allowing eight hits and six walks but only two
earned runs.
But that was a lot better than the Brewer pitchers. Granted, Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson were not on the mound Thursday, but will be Friday and Sunday. Coming off this barrage, the Dodger offense is as ready as it ever will be.
"Obviously, when Greenie swings like he did today, he presents a threat that we haven't had this year," said Eric Karros. "He's the only guy on the team capable
of that. The funny thing is, four days ago everybody's ready to write him off. He was booed in L.A. That's why you can't overreact to one game or one series. People who don't know the game sometimes have a tendency to do that."
Karros batted cleanup in the game as Paul Lo Duca was rested.
"All you guys who've been writing about no protection for Greenie, just remember who was protecting him today," Karros said in jest so Lo Duca could hear.
Green entered the series hitting .231 with three home runs, 21 RBI and led the league grounding into 12 double-plays. In these three games, he went 9-for-14
with six homers and 10 RBIs. Eight of his hits went for extra bases. In six
career games at Miller Park, he is 13-for-24 with nine home runs.
Tracy said Green's problems have been mechanical, but hitting is a "feel" thing to Green and he is never very good explaining it good or bad.
"The first night of the series I got a home run, then I got another one and it started to catch on and it wasn't a fluke," Green said. "After that, my swing
has been where I want it to be. Yesterday I tripled on a pitch that's been eating me up all year. Little things like that help you realize things are
He hit home runs off Glendon Rusch in the second inning, two off Brian Mallette in the fourth and fifth innings, then needed Chad Kreuter to double and Beltre
to homer in the top of the ninth so he'd get a second shot at No. 4 after
singling in the eighth inning. He also hit two in Tuesday's disappointing loss,
the Dodgers missing a series sweep because they blew a 5-0 lead.
Green said he homered Thursday on three fastballs and a slider. At no time did
Brewers pitchers brush back a Dodger hitter, especially surprising Green.
"If I had gotten drilled, I'd still be the happiest guy in Milwaukee," said
Green. "I was looking for a pitch up in the zone, something to drive and got
The magnitude of the achievement was still sinking in as he dressed for the
flight to Phoenix.
"I wish I had a few days off to enjoy it," he said. "The ball's been looking
like a ping-pong ball, but today it was like a softball. It's incredible to be
in the same category as guys like Mays and Gehrig. It's incredible to have
records like this. Duke Snider, they wrote a song about him. They're legends."
With nine home runs, Green is only one off last year's pace. The Dodgers are 9-1
in games against left-handed starters and are 13-3 in games started by their

If you go by the headlines, the iPhone 5S and Google Glass were the big technology stories of 2013, and Twitter's IPO was the event of the year. The coverage of Glass focused mostly on its privacy implications — not its ability to change the world. And iPhone and Twitter were just more of the same. So we could end the year really disappointed because nothing dramatic seems to have happened on the technology front.
But look again, at the stories we missed. So much happened, in fact, that I believe we have set the stage for the transformation of entire industries.
Smaller has become cooler in computers. Tablets sales continued to increase and have eclipsed PCs and desktops. The iPad mini, which at first seemed to be a disappointment, was a major success. Prices are continuing to plunge as computing power and functionality grow exponentially. With the U.S. availability of the India-made $37.99 Datawind tablet, there will be greater downward pressure. It won't be long before Amazon gives you a free tablet for signing up for Amazon Prime.
This will spell disaster for old-line computer companies such as Dell, Acer and Microsoft.
Electric cars proved their mettle. Despite a disparaging review by The New York Times, which it later conceded had "problems with precision and judgment," and negative rumors about safely, range and reliability, Tesla achieved astonishing success. Its customers, who include me, lauded the car. Its stock rose to new heights. Consumer Reports gave Tesla's Model S its highest ranking ever. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reaffirmed its 5-star safety ratings. Tesla has proven the viability of electric cars and demonstrated their superiority. All major car manufacturers are now developing electric cars for a market that will surely grow.
Technology is improving health care. Quantified Self devices such as Fitbit and Nike Fuelband are becoming widely available. You even see these on the shelves of Apple Stores. Companies are running contests using these devices to encourage employees to get more exercise. Smartphone add-ons such as the Alivecor heart monitor are being prescribed by doctors. Interestingly, Apple recently patented a heart monitor sensor for the iPhone. Our smartphones are destined to become our prime medical advisers. I expect they will one day chide us to get more exercise, drink less alcohol and watch our calorie intake. They will tell us when we are about to get sick and which medicines to take. We will only turn to our doctors for refuge.

A Century of Collage
May 16 | September 2, 2012
In the 19th century, before the emergence of the term collage, gluing together bits of paper tickets, photographs, printed texts, and other ephemera—was largely a craft, a technique used for scrapbooks and other domestic memorabilia. In the early 20th century, however, artists like Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso glued together papers, turning the humble medium into fine art. The collage was born. Among the earliest of fine art collages is the McNay's Guitar and Wine Glass made by Picasso in 1912. This combination of found wallpaper, scraps of sheet music, and studio fragments, foreshadows artistic and philosophical issues in modern art: abstraction, the paradox of high and low culture, and the challenge of traditional figure/ground relationships. Exploration of these issues advanced greatly with the introduction of collage into the art repertoire.
A Century of Collage celebrates 100 years of the fine art of pasting paper on paper by examining different ways artists have used it, from the pioneering work of Picasso, to the cool, geometric abstraction of Burgoyne Diller, and the highly conceptual Violent Space Series by John Baldessari. Other artists included are John Fraser, Eileen Gray, Fannie Hillsmith, Lee Krasner, and Robert Motherwell.

long bang forble tricycle cub done
At least for a while:
A long bang engine is a 180 firing engine and a forble is a 4 cylinder convertes into dual 2 cylinders so the end results is a 4 cylinder that sounds and functions like a 2 cylinder John Deere engine.
The original drawbar was a swinging bar which is laying in the weeds somewhare so I put on another old drawbar. Not painted. The spacing and width of the tractor is the same as the original cub.
Started out as a parts tractor, a 1 cylinder tractor, a 3 point hitch tractor, loader tractor, then a tricycle cub
Maching the axle tubes prior to welding
Axle shortened, pinned, stepped prior to welding. Machined smooth and balanced on a lathe.
This is the top of the pedestal, the center round tube fits into this plate, welded, the plate bolted under the bolster. This is why I hate machining, all those little curly metal slivers get into my socks.
Cub spindles test fit.
Rear axle stuff done
Seat support
Made a new battery box. This is why I like 12 volts, a $25 battery!
Engine brace, for another post
Oil guage never worked
Need to replace
Cap on distributor, longer starter lever, dual sparc coils, hitachi alternator. Engine brace not mounted yet
I used two dual spark motorcycle coils to fire the plugs, two condensors, two points
To run as a "forble" I needed to add a second set of points 90 degrees from the original, I used a set of lawnmower points to get the 90 degree offset. I then ground the lobes off of the diistributor cam to leave only one lobe.
Pilot plug to guide the hole saw so I can move the clutch pedal shaft to the left side. The right side was plugged with a rod with a 3/4 inch hole for the brake shafts
Dodge truck, Centaur tractor, backhoe waiting their turn.
I still need to make a bronze casting for the radiator cap. The Stainless muffler ended in disaster twice, not able to mig or tig 27 guage steel so I finally gave up and just covered the exhaust pipe with a SS pipe.
The engine sounds like a JD 2 cylinder tractor and seems to run/start fine. Steering is a little tight but has loosened up since I oiled the shaft. I'll park it under a tree and more on to the next project.

Re: long bang forble tricycle cub done
I wondered the other day if you ever finished that project. I think it is very cool and would love to have one like it some day. I wish I had your skills.
I hope while it is parked under that tree, it doesn't get neglected and all your hard work go to waste.
Re: long bang forble tricycle cub done
VERY NICE! Amazing the talent of ingenuity and machining that some folks on here have. I really like that you kept the rear wheel spacing the same, you should still be able to mount a plow or mower deck if you ever wanted too. I'll bet the forble has some real torque too. I would definitley like to see this in person sometime.

Good gardeners know that a quick way to repel spiders from plants is to spray them with salt water. But salt water – the most abundant clean energy source on Earth – is actually the power source for our kit's amazing Salt Water Arachnoid.
Just activate the fuel cell module with a salt water mixture, and the magnesium metal sheet (three sheets included) will send the spider creeping and crawling for about five to seven continuous hours. To stop, remove the fuel cell module, rinse with water and dry.All kit materials are environmentally safe, non-heat producing and non-toxic. Once assembled, the salt water powered spider measures 1.77" x 4.72" x 4.33".
Recommended for ages 10+.
Warning: Choking Hazard. Small parts. Not for children under 3 years
