Made to the same high standards as all of our furniture, each one of our upholstery frames is built to last.
Kiln-dried, engineered hardwood
We use kiln-dried, engineered hardwood in all of our upholstery frames. Often used for structural beams, engineered hardwood is made by pressing thin layers of solid wood together. Kiln-drying removes moisture, minimizing seasonal expansion and contraction. This stable hardwood material resists warping and cracking for lasting durability.
Reinforced joinery
We reinforce every joint in our frames for added stability. Precision-cut parts interlock like puzzle pieces and are reinforced with eco-friendly glues, screws or staples and corner blocks. Reinforced joinery ensures your seating holds together, even with years of frequent use.
Sinuous coil
A sinuous coil suspension consists of s-shaped metal springs that are stretched across the frame. The coils are securely attached with clips that allow the metal to flex while still remaining supportive. Because each coil is independently attached to the frame, you'll barely feel it when someone sits down next to you.

Customer comments about Easton 91" Guest Select Queen Sleeper Sofa:
We were very excited to get a stylish sleeper sofa and spent a long time at the store considering our options. We settled on the Easton because of the styling and its nice (large) size. We were cautioned it might be firmer than the couch-only model. However the cushions on the sleeper model seem considerably higher than the floor model as well. I am just 5'4" and the couch that arrived looks great but is pretty tall for me. Just take note of this difference when you are checking out the sleeper models at the store.

We are a school and wanted to have 40 teachers come for a holiday dinner on December 30. The owner of the restaurant made it clear that he was not happy with this many people since it would take up his valuable time.
I was appalled at this treatment. We decided to dine elsewhere and will tell our other 24 schools to do the same. I have never heard of business being conducted in this way. I don't even want to taste the food if the people working at your restaurants are this cold and disconcerting.

Went to outback steakhouse in Hixson TN.. had problem with drains in bar. counld not even set to have a drink smelled so bad thought i would be sick.

Today I ate at the Outback in Thousand Oaks. I had the bacon wrapped shrimp.It didn't look like shrimp on your menu.the shrimp was not wrapped! They bacon was just sprinkled on top As a former chef and restaurant owner! I just thought you would like the info.Plus the servIce was horrible!!

My husband is a Viet Nam Vet and on Tuesday we visited your steakhouse in Inver Grove Heights expecting more than a "Bloomin' Onion and beverage" as a thank you to him for his service to our country. I feel you can afford to express your gratitude to our Vets with at least a free entre. I'm sure you'll still make money as I ate a full meal along with wine and our tips are always generous. Just a thought for next year. You'd place much higher in my book as a caring restaurant and we would probably visit your establishment more often.
I would appreciate a response to my comment if at all possible.
Thank you.

We went to the outback in ontario mill ontario california
We order the steak and lobster for $14.99
My husband and I both order that special
The waiter told us that that plate would cost us $17.99 each and that the price for California and Ohio charges three dollars more than the other state . He took our order to the kitchen came back and told us that the price is $18.99
We ask to speak to the manager , the manager came and he told us we couldn't get. The steak and lobster for $14.99 it was going cost us $18.99
And again. California charges $3.00 more
We got our plates it was a baked potatoe , steak and two small lobster tail
We were very disappointed we see the advertisement on TV and then go to the resturant
And it's costing more
Michael A. Goss Sr. - 61 d ago
We have a Birthday Group and go to a Restaurant everyother month. We have approximately 18 people who perticipate and I wanted to go to Outback Steakhouse for my Birthday in Chico, CA. I had my heart set on having Steak and Lobster. Now all of us are retired and on a fixed income. I saw the addvertisement on the TV and was so excited. When we got there I told the waiter who brought us the drinks that I was going to have the $14.99 special Steak and Lobster, his committ was OH, WE SOLD OUT. I said when did you open, he said 4:00 pm, the time was only 5:00 pm. Then when our waiter took our order, I asked him for the $14.99 Steak and Lobster and he said WE DON'T OFFER THAT IN CALIFORNIA I was really upset and I had a Hamburger which I could have gotten down the street for cheaper. Our group has decided that we will not go to Outback Steakhouse andymore. Eighteen people will give there business to other Restaurants. Bye the way we all drove there from Paradise and Magalia, California.

Drove 50 miles from Yreka, Ca. to Medford, Oregon to take advantage of the steak and lobster for $14.99 as advertised on T.V.. Waiter told us they couldn't afford that price but we could get a steak at regular price and add a lobster tail for $6.99. We're on a tight budget so the special day I planned for my wife ended up with chicken sandwiches, then drove the 50 miles back. Quite a bummer day especially at the price of gas these days. I can't complain about the service because it's always been good but this just rankled me.

Just wanted to let the corporate office know about a recent visit we made to The Outback Steakhouse in Panama City Beach, Florida on 23rd St. Jason was our waiter. We had the best service ever given to us! We felt like we were the only people he was taking care of in the whole building because we had every need met before we could even ask:) he did everything so effortlessly! We enjoyed our meal so much:) Everything was cooked to perfection:) Please can you give Jason some type of major recognition because he deserves it. He is one of the most polite and considerate waitrons we have encountered as well. Thank you. The LeRoy's #706-506-5114 5stars rating

Absolutely correct! Lobster not freak, service staff under-manned, wrong food brought out! Overall, miserable experience. Second and last time we go there!
Karen Long - 142 d 10 h ago
I don't think that the lobsters arefresh aand of any size and then steaks are very old i feel but not as of my party was completely unsatisfied but i paid the bill.

This incident took place at the Cumming GA Outback and has created a major backlash from pet lovers everywhere. Management needs to be reprimanded, especially for the fact that they are on their Facebook page now basically calling the gentleman who brought the situation to their attention a liar. He is owed a HUGE apology from Outback.

To whom it may concern; I have tried to use my coupons for the Outback quite a few times and have been turned down because they say they do NOt take anything that has been printed. The coupons come to my e-mail and I have to print them off. They are LEGIT coupons for your restaurant. At one time they use to accept them but now they tell me NO because they are printed copies. There is no other way for me to get them but to print them out. We LOVE coming to eat here and we have NEVER had any problems until now with the coupon thing. I do not understand why. If there is anything you can do for me about this issue it would be GREAT. I would accept coupons in the mail or you can even send me a gift car or something like that if you could. This has been a real disappointment to us when we come with friends and they turn us down like that. Whatever you can do to help will be GREATLY appreciated, thanks.

Used to be our favorite steak house. Unfortunately can no longer count on quality food. We have two out of three of our family disabled and so cannot come into the restaurant but come by for carry out. I have often felt we get the garbage that would be destined for the trash because it surely would be returned to the kitchen were it served in house. Once I get it home, and discover the poor quality, it is too late and too far to return it. It is a good way for you to unload poor quality meat but an unhappy experience for us. Recently you also eliminated some items from your menu that were popular with us. Even though the beef steaks could not be counted on we found that the pork tenderloin was very tender and tasty all the time. You took it off the menu. Was told you substituted a porterhouse pork chop in its place. So we tried it and out of three meals only one was edible. Tough, over seasoned, filled with fat described our eating experience. Yes, your manager was very nice and sent coupons to make up for our loss, but dinner that night was terrible and I really have little desire to use those coupons to get more of the same. When carry out meals are taken home and prove to be awful we can't send them back to the kitchen and are stuck with our loss. Stop unloading bad food on carry out meals. Be consistent with the quality of your food. I never know if the food I bring home will be edible. We think twice before agreeing to order from Outback.

What is up with Outback? We used to love going to this chain store. Now we are favoring other steak houses. Come on guys, get the quality right!
Phyllis B. Foye - 1 y 210 d ago
I hit my head in your waiting area on a ledge that sticks out over the seating area that you don't know is DANGEROUS until after you head catches it when you sit down!!!! I filed a complaint, didn't get a call a card, or a letter saying sorry fot the experience! Your insurance company Wells Fargo was rude and would pay my ER bill! I sat at dinner with an ice pack the waitress kept bringing me! We were at my husbands's Birthday celebration there was 9 of us there. A follow up concerned call would have been good customer relations! This took place at Out Back 1551 Niagara Falls Blvd, Amherst N Y 14226 I will keep complaint to whoever will listen, until I at least get an apology! My head still hurts everyday and I have spasms in my neck constantly

Bloom'in Onion! It's a meal unto itself. I am a fan. Oh yeah.
Jeane - 2 y 82 d ago
Outback used to be our favorite steakhouse. However, our new favorite is Texas Roadhouse. The bottom line is that Outback's steaks are just not the same quality as those of TR. Sorry Outback. Need to pick it up a bit. I will say we still love (and crave) the Outback salads-- especially the blue cheese chopped salad. My daughter actually asked me to pick up a salad for her the other day. So there ya go. Fix the steak quality guys!
MMM...Chese Fries - 2 y 113 d ago
Whenever I walk into an Outback, the first thing that I always wonder is, "why is everyone so good looking?" The staff of every Outback I have ever been to looks like they came out of a modeling agency. The men, the women, all of them. I have no idea how they do it, but I have never seen an ugly person there.
And they can actually serve you too. They aren't just there to look good. At Outback, the service has always been friendly and attentive, and I really enjoy it every time I go there.
And then there is the food. I have to admit, I have no idea what is on most of the menu, because I only ever get the appetizers. The Bloomin' Onion is great, so in the Spinach Artichoke Dip and Artichoke flatbread thing. But for me, one of the greatest things I have ever eaten is the Aussie Cheese Fries. It's a literal mountain of delicious fries (a little soft, the way I like them) absolutely smothered in cheese and bacon, and served with a really tasty sauce. I get it every time I go there.
I assume the other food is good, but for me, Outback is a great place to go after work with my friends and just have a few beers, some appetizers, and look at all the good looking people.

I could get used to this strike business - stayed at home, potted up my begonias had a leisurely breakfast and read the paper then watched a couple of good films - great
That would have proved a pretty big point, unfortunately, I'm not in a union, so am in today, but I still support the cause!!!
I could get used to this strike business - stayed at home, potted up my begonias had a leisurely breakfast and read the paper then watched a couple of good films - great
Clear as mudOriginally Posted by russdev
who exactly do these changes affect? Everyone from police officer to council tax office workers?
Quite the opposite as far as I can tell - these guys are fine. It is people on the local government pension scheme who are affected (apparently the people you mentioned are not). I believe the point is where the gov has improved/protected (not quite sure myself) these people's pension, it has altered ours for the worse. And that is why we are striking.Originally Posted by Alex
I'm not 100% sure myself - that is as I understand it.
Rule of 85.....Let's take a simple example; If two people identically aged 25-30 start work on the same day in a school, one as network manager and the other as a teacher. They both work 30 years, at which point the teacher can retire without any reduction to his pension, but the network manager has to work another 5 years otherwise his pension takes a major hit.... is that fair? The unions supported by > 1 million workers don't think so.
Don't worry though, because under BSF when all our jobs are outsourced our pensions will be stuffed anyway! TUPE rules say pensions to be 'broadly equivalent'.... with pensions actuaries deciding what is 'broadly equivalent'
thats correct...Originally Posted by broc
as for TUPE that is where unions come into play as unions will get to see all contractors and can preassure for contracts to be changed so everybody you get a fair deal as lea can not go with cheapest option they have to go with best option...
What I see as wrong, is that ANYONE gets their full pension at 60, when those of us in the real world (well, sort of) will have to work BEYOND 65 to get our basic pension!
OK, I'll grant you that it is hardly fair to change the rules partway through anyones employment.
as said on many have your say type things on web
ok then fine if that is case do away with pension scheme bring it into line with private sector but also bring pay it into line with private sector...
then fine.....
mind you it will cost more to do that than to grant pension deal as that wont cost tax payer anything if done right where as later will...
your choice mr joe blogs either pay private wages or dont but then you need to offer people reason to stay in public sector...
NO! The only people who will get full pension are those who have 40 years service at retirement. They won't get their state pension until 65.Originally Posted by Andrew_C
Each year of pensionable service will earn 1/80 salary. 40 years service = 40/80= 50% pension. A teacher retiring early at 60 with 30 years service will get 30/80 of salary, or around 38% NOT the 50% full pension. What makes withdrawing the 85 year rule unfair for the network manager is his 38% will be reduced by 1/3 for retiring early at 60, so he will get approx 25% pension if he retires after 30 years.
Find someone who was TUPE'd & see if their T&C at TUPE stayed the same.....Originally Posted by russdev
A favourite trick...."So you would like a promotion/pay rise/regrade....." Well, we might be able to manage that for you, but you will have to switch to our terms and conditions of employment/pension scheme rather than those you were transferred across from your previous employer......

Would you be willing to answer a few brief questions about PlayStation Forums?
Although I don't like being on the receiving end of rage... I don't think it should be removed at all. Do some people abuse it? Sure but there is ALWAYS something that will be abused. The rage feature gives hope to someone in a match who be getting pwned left and right and if they get in a kill or two off of it... that can be the difference between them rage quitting forever, and continuing to play the game.
Can it turn the tide of a match? Sure. I have no problem with that. It's not a secret what it is, what it does, and you need to watch out for it.
The logic that "everyone is high level now and it is no longer needed" is in my personal opinion... silly. There will be people that buy this game later on that will get trounced. Having the rage available can help this stick around as I stated earlier. When you have NOTHING upgraded unlocked, it is really the only advantage you can gain when a newbie. It should stay.
I get my butt handed to me now and again. I may be getting owned playing with randoms against a group that is clearly a team, we may be outnumberd and I keep catching the double triple team.
Now if I'm getting trounced... I certainly am gonna use rage when it is at my disposal. I don't intentionally get it, I don't die on purpose to have it. If I a legitimately getting beat, yeah I'm gonna use it so I can at least help my team a little instead of being a detriment to them. Just because someone is a higher level does not neccessarily mean they are super skilled. Level advancement is based off of XP and not skill, and with double and triple XP happening regularly, any schmoe can be a high level without neccessarily being what some consider "good."

The Kindness of Strangers
This week's assignment sounds like my mom asking "What are you doing with your life? You will wake up in your 30s and realize you have nothing!" These are some seemingly harsh words from my mom, especially since I turn 30 next year April! The thing is, my vision for life is different from the vision she has for me. Her vision for me may be similar to the vision society has for me "be a good student, get a good job, marry, take one vacation a year, retire, die" all in all play by the rules and follow the status quo.
My vision for me is one of greatness, one of flexibility and always evolving and I believe I am putting those steps in place to accomplish this. In my Caribbean society, it is common for young people to still live at home whereas our American and European counterparts move out from early. While I play into that status quo and still live at home, I do own my own house and apartment which I rent out to tenants to cover the mortgage. See – I told you, I play by the rules – but then I add my twist to it. I had what society considered a "good job" – but my brain was dying, I worked there for 2 years, then I "fired my boss" … joined the organization as a member, and got elected on to the Board. Yes, I am now the boss of that "boss I fired". Clearly, I like doing things that no one else really thought about doing just to see if they can be done. I work as a freelance consultant on different projects and recently opened a firm here in Barbados – an extension of a firm already in Trinidad for the last 15 years.
My vision for my life will affect my community and the world. I am a mentor right now for programs in Entrepreneurship in the high schools across the island, I am on the Advisory Council for the Barbados Youth Development Council – I like to share information and opportunities. I never hold on to stuff for myself, I would prefer 100 of my friends and acquaintances apply for an opportunity and "compete" against me and one of us get it, then I hold on to it and submit on my own and lose out to someone not in my circles at all! I am always volunteering in my community and as I strengthen my brand across the island of Barbados and the region – I do feel like a big fish in a small pond and I am looking to migrate to another country to continue developing myself and make an impact on a global scale. I have traveled extensively and have already done some work in Ghana with a Canadian non-governmental organization and I will continue to work on behalf of persons who have not had as much opportunities as I have…
Why do I want to be a VOF Correspondent? When I first heard about this program as I mentioned in an earlier post – I applied because this is what I do – I apply for things! I like the process of applying, of competing and of putting myself out there to be judged! If selected, then I get to learn something new about myself as well as the program that I am in. With World Pulse, I have always had aspirations of writing something – a book, a novella, something … perhaps this opportunity if it is meant to be will be what opens the doorways for me. I have published some articles in different magazines but I think I need the push, the next step … writing will allow me to continue doing what I do, being free, sharing my story and the story of others – and most importantly documenting it in a strategic way rather than simply emails home back to friends and family! I've already achieved part of my vision – believing once again in the kindness of strangers who have posted and shared from their hearts!
LOL my mom would say the same
LOL my mom would say the same but with her own twist - " what will do in life if you are ( the list goes on ) if you....etc !!!
I can relate a lot with your post ! why have not I came across your post before !
Like you, I do a lot of 'applying' too - and luckily I manage to secure a lot of those 'applications' . I love exploring, opportunities is one of them !
"Clearly, I like doing things that no one else really thought about doing just to see if they can be done." Sound like my kinda girl ! Do hope to read from you more
Kind-essssst regards !
you go girl
love your spirit of defiance and action
you're getting there - a 'there' of your own making
(and you're not 30 yet!)
....and there is no stopping
....and there is no stopping you. You are truly moving out....you have achieved so much in life already, and the important part is that you are happy doing what you do, helping others, and sharing your passion and defiance...
I enjoyed reading your journal entry. I think your voice really comes through on this piece. You do a good job of articulating your work in your community. I was wanting to know a little bit more about the work you do in Ghana. What kind of work does the Canadian non-profit do? Also, in your work with the Youth Development Council, I was wanting to know a little bit more about the specific issues you deal with. I was also wanting to know more about your specific goals and what kinds of experiences and stories you see yourself sharing through Voices of Our Future.
Thank you for sharing!
Reflection on "The Kindness of Strangers"
In reading your piece, Leelee, your entrepreneurial spirit and drive shines through.
I was particularly moved by the eloquent description of your personal vision being "one of greatness, of flexibility and always evolving".
I hope that you continue to be surrounded by evidence of the "kindness of strangers" and achieve your writing aspirations.
Keep up the great work!
Thank you for sharing your vision with World Pulse. Best of luck in achieving it.

U.S. Department Of Transportation Declares Georgia-based Top Class Bus Company An "Imminent Hazard," Ordered To Immediately Shut Down
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has ordered Atlanta-based Top Class Bus Company, LLC, to immediately cease all passenger transportation services for blatantly disregarding federal safety regulations and putting the company's own drivers, passengers, and the motoring public at risk.
The imminent hazard/operations-out-of-service order issued today by FMCSA prohibits Top Class Bus Company from any type of commercial passenger service and it blocks the unapproved use of its buses by another company or any driver.
"Bus companies that operate outside the law, putting lives at risk, will be immediately taken off the road and closed for business," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
"Yesterday, Secretary LaHood and I announced a nationwide safety crackdown on high-risk motorcoach companies," said FMCSA Administrator Anne S. Ferro. "While this particular investigation was initiated earlier, it symbolizes our commitment to take immediate action and shut down an entire company if it willfully disregards the law, jeopardizing the safety of everyone."During an unannounced, four-day investigation, a team of FMCSA safety investigators found that Top Class Bus Company, which operates fixed-route passenger service primarily between Atlanta and New York City, failed to monitor and ensure that its drivers comply with drivers' hours-of-service requirements. FMCSA's investigators also found that Top Class failed to comply with records-of-duty status requirements, qualification requirements, and controlled substances and alcohol use and testing requirements. FMCSA safety investigators further found that Top Class Bus Company permitted its drivers to falsify records-of-duty status in an attempt to conceal hours-of-service violations. The company owners were also found to have ignored critical vehicle equipment deficiencies identified by their drivers on required daily inspection reports. A copy of the imminent hazard out-of-service order can be viewed at www.fmcsa.dot.gov/documents/about/news/2013/Top-Class-Bus-Company-IH-Order.pdf. SOURCE Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

We're gonna be performing an overhead triceps cable extension. What we wanna do is to hook up the bar to the cable pulley apparatus and then move it to the uppermost position. Now, Lea is gonna take the bar. She's gonna position herself in a fairly wide stance, so she has a nice center of gravity. Elbows over the in of her head and she's just kind press forward. Notice how she keeps her upper arm stable. The only thing that moves is the forearm and this works the long head of the triceps, which prevents the upper arm from getting a giggly motion.

Apple vs. Samsung: Who owns smart phones?
Why Apple and Samsung suits and counter suits still fly, and what's next.
Ahn Young-joon/AP
What did Samsung do wrong?
In August, an American jury decided that 28 Samsung smart phones unfairly lifted ideas from the iPhone. The Korean company infringed on Apple features such as:
•Finger controls: Apple patented the idea of using one finger to scroll and multiple fingers for other interactions, such as the "pinch-to-zoom" gesture that enlarges images.
•Bounce-back: When an iPhone user reaches the bottom of a Web page, the phone scrolls a little beyond the bounds of the page and then snaps back. Apple patented this rubber-bandlike flourish.
•Tap-to-zoom: Double-clicking on part of a website will make an iPhone zoom in on that section.
•Appearance: Samsung phones look too similar to the iPhone's patented design, such as its clean front, edge-to-edge glass, rounded corners, and other specific features. Samsung could have incorporated one or two of these design aspects, but it borrowed too many.
•Icon design: The main menu on certain Samsung phones illegally copies the iPhone's. Both use colorful, rounded-rectangular icons, with a special bottom row for the most important features.
Are such patents too broad?
The jury had the option to strike down any of these patents. Samsung argued during the trial that companies had already demonstrated ideas that Apple claims to have invented. For example, six years before the iPhone, Mitsubishi unveiled the DiamondTouch, a touch-screen table with features that resemble bounce-back and pinch-to-zoom. This evidence of "prior art" did not sway the jury. A higher court may feel differently.
Does this mean that all Android phones violate Apple's patents?
Not necessarily. While Samsung is one of many companies that make Android devices, it modified Google's original code to add extra features and visual flair. After the US trial, Google released a statement saying that most of Samsung's infringements "don't relate to the core Android operating system."

What does Sen. John McCain think of Glenn Beck dumping on his daughter?
On his radio show yesterday, Glenn Beck pretended to vomit while watching a naked from-the-shoulders-up Meghan McCain who was part of a PSA for skin cancer. It didn't take long for Cindy McCain to react to Beck's antics, via Twitter. But during an interview today, CNN's John King tried to get Sen. John McCain to comment on it. McCain took the high road instead: "I don' think I should dignify that behavior with a comment." Watch:

For the Dr. Who fans among us [following the episode shown tonight]
how many doctors have we got left before the end of the world???
Far too much slow mo and attempts to try and make Tennant actor
Yes just a 'ladder' to plant some kind of time paradox to bring back the master. Also thought the incidental music was louder than the dialog. Could be my age though as the 2nd doctor was my first!!!!
Not sure I think what Ep did very well is show how young the doctor is (in time lord terms) and something that other time lords had figured is no one person should have the power over everything hence why got the council and the fixed points in time.
Well for me [ HUGE Dr Who Fan ] This was the best ep for about 3 years - The last good one [ in my opinion ] was blink. Blink (Doctor Who) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
At last a bit of a character change - [ if anyone remembers Colin Baker as the Doc ] who tried this [ame=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixth_Doctor]Sixth Doctor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]
Still we shall see what happens at Xmas - [ it will most probably be crap as most of the Xmas ones are ]

Electric or Fuel Heli which one?
I have decided to take the plunge into the world of Helicopters. I have been flying electric planes. I have read allot on both but cannot decide on which to get. I would like your thoughts on which way to go. I have decided on the Corona for the electric model, but have not picked a fuel model. Please help......
|Jan 26, 2004, 10:23 PM
Dollar for dollar you will spend roughly the same.....
If you go electric I'd say get the Corona, or my fav, the Mikado Logo 10 as they are more stable, and a collective pitch ship. They will cost roughly the same as a .30 size glow ship to get into the air.
If you go glow, consider a Raptor .30 or .50. A .50 size ship doesn't cost much more in crash cost, but you have more available power, so you don't necessarily have to be as smooth on the collective, and when you're ready.... you can really put them through their paces.
If you consider a .50 ship, I'd look at the Hirobo Sceadu .50 Evo. They are an awesome flying ship, easy to work on, easy to find parts, etc... I'm working on one, and after flying my buddies, I'd buy another one.
Both the Raptor and Sceadu are belt driven units which I prefer over the wire drive you will find on the Century Hawk Sport, which is another good .30 size heli.
Only problem with the Hawk is that it doesn't offer much past basic forward flight and some aerobatics.
Now you're saying to yourself "But I dont' want to do aerobatics" I have one thing to say, and that is.....a few months from now, you will.
For a lot of info on all the helis mentioned you might check out www.runryder.com

Thank you so much Paul I appreciate your input........and yes I know what you are talking about, I can see aerobatics in my future.........boy this hobby can be VERY consuming but it's so much fun. Thanks Bob

Electric or Fuel, either way will get you in the air, but if I were you I would make sure it has collective pitch. I went with the LMH when I first got into heli's, and I know from experience, don't waste your money. Don't get me wrong, the LMH electric or glow are good little heli's, and they will take a beating and come back for more, (BUT) you are very limited to what you can do with them. It wont take you very long and you will out grow it, then your going to have to buy another heli (that's twice the money). Do it right the first time and save yourself a pill of money. Start out with a 30 size (or a 50 if you have the money), they are a lot more stable then the LMH's or some kind of micro heli. You will learn to fly a lot faster. You can learn to fly on the small heli's, but it takes a lot longer, and then you have nowhere to go (so you have to buy another one).

A friend, who used stainless 7x19 wire, had to replace them very three years, because of broken strands. He only sailed weekends, and a three week summer holiday.I cruise full time, year round, and my current 1/4 inch 7x19 galvanized wire halyard will be ten years old by next spring. Despite having crossed the Pacific, it has no broken strands or meat hooks anywhere. Stick to galvanized . 1/4 inch is overkill, but far less likely to jump a sheave, than 3/16th. I tie the rope tail on thru a hard eye in the wire, no rope to wire splice needed. .
Don't you even consider the possibility that there has been the odd advance in line technology since 1974 ?
