Serta's iComfort, for example, evenly distributes support across the body with microsupport gel capsules nestled in its memory foam; a specialized material prevents overheating and the resulting unpleasant lava-chase nightmares. Mattress Direct's stock of bed frames, bed linens, and pillows allow patrons to assemble complete bedroom sets in one trip, and an express delivery service prevents the hassle of renting a moving truck or outfitting each leg of a new bed with a rollerblade.
The professionals at Pineapple Gallery specialize in conservation framing and only use acid-free materials when framing prized family photos and valuable artwork.

Snag a down-alternative pillow ($60+) and allow it to be embraced in a multihued sham for its ecological affability ($39+). A complimentary in-home consultation evaluates a room's lighting, space, and sock to floor ratio in order to determine the most dapper, customizable abode arrangements.

Diners can launch face first into lunch or dinner with the Covington panini on sourdough, a medley of fresh spinach, avocado, havarti cheese, and horseradish mayonnaise ($7.95). Much like the emblematic reward for a good SAT score, Pelican Market Cafe awards all its sandwiches and wraps with a side of sour-cream potato salad. Lettuce lunatics can fall into a leafy affair with 11 salads, including the spinach and walnut ($8.95), the chicken cobb ($9.95), and the sweet juiciness of the summer fruit ($8.95). Café connoisseurs can nosh in the casual, kid-friendly atmosphere and leave wondering why more restaurants don't feature slip 'n' slides and cascading kool-aid fountains.

"The Unquiet Nisei draws on a collection of oral histories conducted by the author to relate the life story of Sue Kunitomi Embrey, a seminal Japanese-American activist. Diana Meyers Bahr traces Embrey's life from her youth in the Little Tokyo section of Los Angeles, to her grim experiences in the Manzanar World War II internment camp, and her many decades of passionate advocacy on behalf of Japanese American internees. Sue spoke out for more than three decades, bringing this dark chapter of American history into the light of congressional acknowledgment and a presidential apology. Illuminating the narrative is Embrey's passion in her resolute campaign to transform the former desolate internment camp into what is today the remarkable Manzanar National Historic Site."--BOOK JACKET.

I have a 86 CJ-7 with the stock D30/D44 axles both 4.56 gears and locked,SOA,35" BFG ATs. (4.0L from a XJ,auto tranny, 4:1, blah blah blah)
I found some 37" MTRs (2 at 90% and 2 at 60%) mounted on 15" 5 on 5.5 bead locks (standard rim converted to 16 bolt locks by Stockton wheel) for $600. Now my question is should I buy these so I can trash my old ATs/go bigger/get bead locks? Or am I asking for a world of hurt by pushing my turd D30 over the edge (bigger axles are planned for later) Thanks, Jason |

You're asking for a world of hurt.
CJ D30 260 u-joint + 37"s aired waaaaay down because you have beadlocks + traction = snap crackle pop.

another senerio:
buy the MTRs and bead locks, drive like a puss until I can get a D44 front and D60 rear. Or Say f*ck it and save up for a D60/14 bolt combo and not wast my time on 1/2 ton stuff and 5 on 5.5 rims. |

A soon as you go with the 60/14 bolt you will need 8 lug rims so the 5 on 5.5 will no longer work. I have ran 35's on my D30 for two years now and expected it to brake the first trip out but it never has. Some say they are week and some say they will hold a 37. It is up to you but when you put in your axles the tires and wheels will not work you will need an 8 lug 16" rim.

The Hubs, joints, ring & pinion, tierod & draglink will not survive any wheeling at all if you go 37s with a stock 30 front!
The housing and shafts will have issues if you do any decent wheeling Will probably have issues with the tierod and draglink on the road also so you can't even mallcrawl! Have fun |

You know, even if you end up not liking the MTRs it sounds like a good deal even if it's just for the wheels unless they're rusty. There is one thing to consider however. Let's say you get the setup and then lunch the Dana 30. Whatever you upgrade to that will withstand the forces generated by the 4.56s will have either 6 or 8 lugs- and there you are stuck with five hole wheels and maybe even with tires you don't like.

One more thing.
The factory 5 bolt hubs are junk and will break with those tires on a decent trail. Need to upgrade to 6 bolt or internal locking hubs. Older disc brake Dana 30 hubs are good and Ford or Dodge Dana 44 style hubs are better. Or spend good money on Warn assemblies |

I grenaded the stock hubs a while ago. Looked into doing the 6 bolt replacement but was too much work so I went with some super winch hubs. I'm going to get the wheels/tires and then sell the 37"s for some 35"s. |

Not married but maybe going steady for a while LOL
I am going to go big nuts and get a D60/14bolt/hummer bead locks later on. The shafts were cheap and my front is already locked and geared. I think of it as just enough polish to keep the turd alive for a little while longer. |

Good point. That's why I'm considering selling/trading the 37" for 35" and keeping the locks.
On a side note I did upgrade my MC and booster so my brakes work much better than stock. (I almost shat my pants with the stock stuff even tooling around the a parking lot) Last edited by Jay5.9L; 10-27-2005 at 05:34 PM. |

Cycling Ireland has successfully qualified eight riders to compete in the UCI Track Cycling World Championships at the Velodrome de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, Paris from the 18-22 February. |
This news comes at the end of a tough track cycling season which included the European Championships and three World Cups. |
In order to compete in the World Championships the Irish team had to place in the top rankings across the target disciplines in these events, and in doing so qualified Ireland's biggest team ever to attend the Track World Championships. |
Ireland's newly formed Women's Team Pursuit has improved consistently throughout the season, finishing in 11th place at the last World Cup in Cali, which ranked them as the eighth European Nation ahead of the World Championships in Paris. This is the first time that Ireland has qualified a Team Pursuit at the World Championships. |
Caroline Ryan and Martyn Irvine qualified in the Omnium events, having both had a mixed season of racing so far. Irvine's qualification is especially sweet considering he broke his shoulder bone in the Omnium at the first World Cup of the season, in Guadalajara, Mexico. |
Eoin Mullen has also qualified in the Men's Sprint, which will top off a superb season which saw him win a bronze medal in the U23 Men's Sprint at the European Championships in July. |
Also qualified is Ryan Mullen, who will race in the Men's Individual Pursuit. |
Ireland has qualified for both the Men's and Women's Scratch Race; these are events in which we have a proven record. |
In 2013 Martyn Irvine sensationally won the World Title in the Scratch Race, and followed it up with a silver medal in 2014. |
Caroline Ryan has also had success in this event in recent years, having been in the winning move the last two years. |
Speaking from the squad base in Majorca, head coach Brian Nugent said: "I'm absolutely delighted with the quota for the world championships, we spent a lot of time developing these riders, and to qualify so many for the world championships in the first year of this programme, we are thrilled. |
"We have a very competitive team this year, where we can compete for medals with some riders." |

thanks very much to Egoraptor for doing the voices
Love, Dim
Writing this, I remembered viewing this very movie like five years ago. Surprise I found it so easily, but regardless, I guess that's what these quirky little concept-stuffs do to you. Still, I think this is one of my favourites now and also the first upon making this new account. Pretty neat concept, and I probably wouldn't mind if it were taken a bit further than this. Cheers.
Quite possibly the greatest depiction of the life of desktop icons ever depicted. Awesome work, this trailer actually makes me want to see this movie. 5/5, this can not be improved.
Please make more :|

Marui Big Bear for sale on ebay
I recently mistakenly listed a truck on ebay as a Tamiya and have been informed that it is in fact a Marui Big Bear. I can't revise the title so I thought I would let hobbyists in this forum know it was for sale.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...STRK:MESELX:IT I just didn't feel right about canceling the listing since there are bids on it (canceling and relisting is the only way to correct the title of the listing), but I wanted to let people know that it was available since it seems to be somewhat rare and interesting. |

Democrats think they have John McCain in a trap. He is going to have to spend the time immediately following his clinching of the nomination trying to win over Republican voters to his right. That's time he won't spend appealing to independent voters. He could even alienate those independents while courting conservatives.
McCain should prove this theory wrong, and he should do it starting at CPAC tomorrow. There are two temptations to resist. The first is for McCain to spend the bulk of the speech burnishing his conservative credentials. He has tried doing that, and a lot of conservatives are still left cold. Besides, what they want to hear isn't that McCain has a conservative voting record but that he will fight for conservative ideas. The second temptation is to provoke bitter-end conservative resistance and triangulate against it. That would be a dangerous strategy, one that could make fence-sitting conservatives turn against him.
There is a risk of being seen as too partisan. But he is safer following this course than trying to pretend to be more conservative than he is. At some point this year he is going to have to make the case against the Democrats — respectfully and civilly, of course, but also forcefully. Why not start now?

There's something special about singing in harmony with others—your personal responsibility to hold your own part, while acknowledging others and blending with their voices.

Leave for Austria on Monday...will be going to Salzburg and Vienna. Question for everybody, is it alright to tip taxi drivers and porters in US dollars? Or is that considered inappropriate or offensive in some way? Of course, considering how little the dollar is worth when compared to the Euro, I would pay more in US, but I was just thinking ahead since I'll be arriving with no Euros on hand. Any advice appreciated, thanks! Michele
Using US$ in Austira??

You can get euro at the ATM at the airport. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I don't think Austrians would want dollars any more than a taxi driver here in US would want to be handed euro. They would lose money getting it exchanged into euro,for the transaction alone.

What on earth would an Austrian do with small quantities of dollars?
And how did you plan on paying the taxi? Not tipping, but paying.
In any country, getting into a taxi without the means to pay - in real money - is a criminal offence.
Do you seriously intend starting your holiday in prison?

I would find it annoying for someone to tip me in a foreign currency, and it probably doesn't give a good image -- you know, the whole idea of Americans thinking they run the world. Austria isn't some third world country with no hard currency of their own where they would be okay. I'm not Austrian, though, so don't know if it's possible they would not care at all. I think at the least it is certainly inappropriate.
There is not reason for it. You can get euro at the airport. I've been there, I know you can do it numerous ways. It never occurred to me to try to get into downtown Vienna from the airport without trying to get some local currency first, because I used it to pay the taxi driver. -

Hi Michele12
the key is not to leave the airport with no local currency at hand.
Yes, it's inappropriate. Either get some from your home bank before you leave, or get some from an ATM or exchange desk at the airport.
Not only is the taxi driver not going to want to figure out an exchange rate for you, but he will lose on it again when he tries to exchange the dollars for euro at a bank.
I know some people think that waiters or porters or chambermaids will appreciate US dollars, but the reality is they have to take the dollars somewhere to exchange them, and then pay a commission on the transaction.
Especially painful on small amounts. -
Report Abuse
Agree with all of the above posts. Dollars are of no use to the taxi drivers and porters. They will have to pay high exchange fees to convert them into euros (doubt they would have anything leftover if we're talking about small amounts). Definitely get some euros either in advance or upon arrival at the airport.
Report Abuse
It is incredibly easy -- Convert your US dollars into local currency at the airport. Or withdraw Euro directly from an ATM machine.
NO, don't plan to travel with U.S. dollars. Whether it is "inappropriate or offensive" might be a bit strong of language but it simply doesn't make sense.
Do Europeans arrive in American and plan to tip the cab drivers with pounds, Euro, Swiss franc, etc.??? Same thing. -
Report Abuse
I agree that you should never tip in dollars when you are in a hard currency environment, such as countries using the Euro or British pounds. It comes off as naive, at best; downright arrogant, at worst. Even in cases where a currency would not be considered "hard", tipping in dollars can just be a hassle for the person receiving them, since they have to take another step in the process to get something that is going to be useful to them. It is therefore inconsiderate and it detracts from the value of your gesture.
But the answer is not always such a slam-dunk when you are in countries operating with weaker currencies that do not trade well internationally. In those cases, it is appropriate to ask. You will find situations in which U.S. dollars are welcome, appreciated and sometimes even preferred. This can easily vary by the individual that you happen to be dealing with at the time. -

For Austria, I found that a few cigarettes or a little chocolate are highly prized by the locals.
Of course, it's been a while since I was there last. -

I don't wiah to be harsh but US$ are not legal currency worldwide. It's tru there are a few (third-world) countries where locals accept US dollars because they (sort of ) hold their value. None of them is in Western Europe. The taxi driver will not take $US for the fare - nor for the tip (What do you think a New York cabbie would do if you tried to pay in Euros? Take you to a bank to get money from an ATM - with the meter runnng the whole time!)
You should probably do some searches above on various monetary issues to be sure you are really ready for your trip - frankly it sounds like you haven't thought this through yet. -

While I was in London last week I noticed that donation boxes at many of the museums were filled with US dollars. I couldn't decide if it made Americans seem generous or arrogant. I donated using Pounds.
On another note, I discovered in a handful of change from a purchase that I had been given a 20 cent Euro coin instead of a 20 Pence coin. Is that common?

Actually I'm quite sure the Taxi driver can simply refuse to take your dollars and thus preventing you from paying. Which is illegal. Or possibly, the driver would be allowed to set his own exchange rate which could literally be anything ("I've heard the dollar is very low now...it must be approaching $1 for 0.01 € or something

I've always agreed that it is "tacky" to say the least to try to use US currency in a foreign country, and I too have used the example of "what if a European tried to pay with euros here?" Oddly enough just a couple days ago a waiter friend of mine mentioned that a French couple in his restaurant paid with a credit card. When they left he found they had tipped him in euro -- a total of 12 individual one euro coins. Doug took them to his bank where they informed him they won't exchange foreign "coins" and he was complaining how he's stuck with them. But I've offered to buy them from him since I can always use them. But I am still shocked that someone would have done such a thing. Did they think they were doing him some sort of favor since the euro is worth more than the dollar?
Report Abuse
Good move, Patrick. I sometimes pick up a few, incidental Euros from people who don't have any foreseeable use for them. But in the Istanbul airport earlier this week, the coffee shop wanted to charge me in U.S. dollars instead of allowing me to get rid of the last of my Turkish currency. Go figure.

I think the new Europe is not as gaa gaa eyed over US style dollars as the old Europe. Even Rumsfeld's "old Europe" including France and Germany have little illusions that the dollar is the world's strongest currency.
Americans, who labor under the mistaken idea that the dollar is still the world's foremost currency, need to wake up to some economic as well as political realities: There is a more powerful economic entity right now than the US, and it is called the European Economic Union.
I hate to break the news to you, but dollar dumping is an economic reality. And one reason the dollar is at such a low value right now is because few financial markets in Europe want them.
The dollar closed today at 1 € costing us $1.213. That is a slight improvement over three weeks ago, but still a big difference from the days when 1€ cost 88 US cents.
That is still a decline of 37.5%.
If the value of your $300,000 house had dropped to $187,500 you would probably be screaming bloody murder.
So would you as a taxi driver want to be paid in a currency that (a) had no local use, (b) had dropped greatly in value with only faint signs of recovery, (c) your country had gotten into a tariff war with the economic unit that circulated that currency, and (d) the nation issuing the currency was so far in debt that it will take many years to reduce it?
There are several web sites that right now list the US debt at $7,139,046,417,891.00
In case you think that is a Social Security number rum amok, let me assure you that it is not. And if the number of digits floors you, simply read it as 7 TRILLION dollars.

We were on a European Cruise that ended in Harwich, England. When we disembarked we got into busses to transfer to London Heathrow.
Upon our arrival at Heathrow, the bus driver was unloading the luggage. I had no Pounds, but since he had handled the Misses Kitchen Sink, I handed him a $10 dollar bill. He looked at me with a sincere "Thank you very much." He knew what he was getting.
Now, he was probably used to that since he had driven for other cruise ships (cruise ships use $$$ as their standard currency).
Other than the above type of circumstance, I would agree to use local currency. -

As you've probably gathered from all the previous posts, you should use the currency of the country you're visiting.
There are a few exceptions however...
If you ever visit the Maldives, you'll find that US dollars are not only welcomed, but expected. You'll be charged for everything in US dollars and your tips will also be in dollars.
I had to look far and wide to find any Maldivian Rufiyaa, but I finally scored a few notes to keep as a souvenir.

I'm afraid that all of you misunderstood Michele12. She didn't ask if it is alright to tip in US dollars in AUSTRIA but in AUSTIRA! You can clearly read Austira in the headline of her posting. And as you well expericenced travelers should now, Austira is a country on the northwestsoutheast border of Schengen with no currency at all! They use shells instead and would be very very happy to see some real money. So go ahead and tip them to the extreme - they will be thankful!

This must be your first trip to Europe. Americans who have never travelled outside of North America always think that the US dollar is a universal currency, then they are shocked when they go overseas and the people there won't accept the US dollar. While it is true that there are some third world countries where they welcome the dollar, that's hardly the case in Austria. Get euros, and don't expect to use your dollars until you get home.
While I am disappointed that so many Americans still think this way, I must give you credit for asking the question instead of just going over there and getting mad when they don't take your dollars. I am ashamed to tell you that I have travelled in groups with a few Ugly Americans who complained constantly that the locals wanted euros instead of dollars. It was wise of you to ask first, that's what these boards are for. Have a great trip. -

Ira - thanks for pointing out the exchange difference. I wonder if this is a new scam aimed at tourists. If he pulls that trick 20 times a day, that's 1.60 Pounds in his pocket. It would be 11.20 for the week, and 582.40 for the year. Hmmm.

It is a law in Austria that you can only use US dollars in restaurants that have a menu in English. You can use them in Vienna to tip the U-Bahn drivers as well. You could also go to McDonald's or Starbucks, I'm sure since they are US corporations they will gladly honor the sacred US currency. Above all, don't drink the water!

Not Austria, but going to Croatia in September with a guided tour (not my usual way of traveling). The tour brochure actually recommends bringing US dollars for tipping. What are the thoughts here?

Thanks for clarifying the whereabouts of Austira. I was wondering myself...
I am a globetrotter, but had very few Euros when I arrived at the Rome airport last summer. My baggage was lost, and I ended up spending nearly 2 hours looking for it & filing a claim. I was SURE that the driver that my hotel arranged for me had left by then, but I was VERY happy to see that he was still waiting for me at the arrival area. I did not change currency at the airport, figuring I had already held him up long enough. When we got to the hotel, I tipped the guy with a big $US bill, and he thanked me. No problem. He did not look upset or surprised. I expained to him, anyway, that I did not have enough Euros to tip him , and he just thanked me again & walked away without incident. I would say in "emergency" tipping situations, go for it. Especially in a place where the dollar is stronger than the local currency. But, as I discovered, people would rather get a tip in a foreign currency than have no tip at all. -

I see tipping $20US in an emergency a different (and acceptable!) solution. But that's not handing out $1's to hotel maids, taxi drivers, porters, waiters, et al.
I obviously haven't been on the board enough lately to spot Michele12 as a prolific but non-returning poster. Along those lines ... whatever happened to "Faithonholiday"? -

half the people your tour guide has you tip work for the tour company anyway, indirectly, if not directly. just like the shops they take you to will probably accept US dollars, since they will be giving a lot of them as a kickback to your guide for bringing you there.

Yoga-Inspired Venture in Creative Capitalism, I AM. Garners Praise In Yoga Community.
~ Jessie Baxter
Two people and one dream of positive social change and a meaningful life formed I AM. For both, it started as a journey, a search for something more and both drawn to yoga and the shared passion of social impact and changing the lives of people in South America and the world.
Yoga-Inspired Venture in Creative Capitalism I AM. Garners Praise, Endorsement From Notables in Yoga Community With Soulwares Line.
I AM. launches with Kickstarter campaign for inaugural project Soulwares, a line of innovative yoga bags connecting Western yogis with impoverished Mayan weavers
SAN FRANCISCO, CA ŌĆō Oct 17, 2011 ŌĆō I AM., the yoga-inspired venture in creative capitalism dedicated to creating commercial solutions to social problems, announced their launch on Kickstarter by introducing their highly anticipated Soulwares project. Both the project and the new organization have received endorsements from luminaries of the yoga community.
The Soulwares project empowers impoverished Mayan weavers in Lake Atitl├Īn, Guatemala to earn a self-determined living wage and fund much-needed infrastructure projects. Using the textiles handcrafted by the Mayan artisan women, Soulwares designs, manufactures and plans to sell yoga bags and straps throughout North America as well as online. Half of the profits from sales will fund community projects in the weaversŌĆÖ villages. ŌĆ£Most people canŌĆÖt even imagine the kind of poverty these people live in,ŌĆØ reports Amnesty International.
The Kickstarter campaign will offer supporters a chance to pre-purchase the yoga bags and fund the construction of an on-site natural dye plant in San Juan, Guatemala. Running from October 11 through November 22, 2011, the campaign has set a funding goal of $45,000. Making it one of the more ambitious Kickstarter campaigns launched in the design category to date.
ŌĆ£While our goal is ambitious, the overwhelming response from the yoga and Western spiritual communities gives me confidence we will reach it,ŌĆØ says William Baxter, I AM. co-founder. ŌĆ£People have really responded to the fact that this project isnŌĆÖt a handout. Far from it:┬ĀSoulwares arms these women with a business infrastructure to support their economic independence and self-determination.ŌĆØ
Michaela Ujan Mendoza, one of the artisan weavers who is working with I AM. to build the natural dye facility, agrees with this philosophy: ŌĆ£I donŌĆÖt want to just be given things; I donŌĆÖt think it is right.ŌĆØ
Both I AM. and Soulwares have received widespread praise and endorsement from the yoga community and even caught the eye of spiritual leader and New York Times bestselling author Eckhart Tolle, who participated in the companyŌĆÖs promotional campaign with a photo of himself holding up the word ŌĆśstillness,ŌĆÖ one of I AM.ŌĆÖs seven founding values. Other noteworthy ambassadors and I AM. endorsers include San Francisco-based yoga instructors Les Leventhal and yogi philosophy scholar and Hindu Studies PhD candidate Eric Shaw.

Oops: David Gregory Probed By Police Over Illegal Magazine
Not the really weird p0rn type of magazine, for those with their minds in the gutter
(Politico) The Washington Metropolitan Police Department is investigating whether any city laws were violated when NBC's David Gregory displayed what appeared to be a 30-round gun magazine on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday, a spokesman confirmed to POLITICO.
"The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating this matter," said police officer and spokesman Araz Alali in an interview Tuesday.
On Sunday, in an interview with the National Rifle Association's head, Wayne LaPierre, Gregory displayed what appeared to be a 30-bullet gun magazine. He pushed LaPierre on the question of whether fewer children would have died during the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre this month had the gunman had access to fewer bullets.
The presence of the gun magazine on the show raises questions about a section in the D.C. code – much cited by conservatives and gun rights activists after "Meet the Press" on Sunday – which stipulates that "No person in the District shall possess, sell, or transfer any large capacity ammunition feeding device regardless of whether the device is attached to a firearm. For the purposes of this subsection, the term 'large capacity ammunition feeding device' means a magazine," among other devices.
Yet another example of a Liberal who wants controls for thee, but not themselves. Doesn't matter if the magazine was for demonstration purposes. He could have used a picture of a large capacity magazine. Instead, he decided that the law didn't apply to himself.
Of course, if someone is bent on committing mass murder they aren't going to worry about laws banning large capacity magazines.

It follows an incident in which the north Belfast politician was carried on the bonnet of a police Land Rover during a disturbance in the Carrick Hill area of Belfast last June.
Both he and the driver of the vehicle have received and accepted informed warnings over the incident.
On Monday Sinn Féin said: "Gerry Kelly has taken a civil case against the PSNI Chief Constable over the incident in Carrick Hill last year.
"Gerry Kelly, in common with any other citizen, is entitled to access the courts when he believes he has been wronged."
The PSNI said it would not comment on the matter.
However, DUP North Belfast MP Nigel Dodds said: "This is one of the most petty and small-minded actions ever witnessed from Sinn Féin. Gerry Kelly is a member of the Policing Board yet sees fit to waste further police time and resources with this civil case.
"Republicans have given support to the police but yet some members of Sinn Féin engage in posturing in an attempt to distract the most discontented elements. That can be the only explanation for this latest stunt, unless of course it is just a blatant attempt to perpetuate community tensions."Tom Elliott, Ulster Unionist Justice spokesperson, said: "The level to which Mr Kelly will stoop knows no bounds.
"I trust the courts will realise the nonsense of this action and that Mr Kelly will not be facilitated with Legal Aid and any application for compensation will be rejected," the Fermanagh and South Tyrone MLA added.
The Police Federation for Northern Ireland, which represents rank and file officers, described the development as "sheer hypocrisy."
Terry Spence, the federation's chairman, said: "This claim is risible and shows the extent to which the claims' culture has taken root. Mr Kelly has accepted an 'informed warning' for his actions and therefore has no grounds for compensation.
"This is sheer hypocrisy, and it won't go unnoticed that it was Mr Kelly's party that questioned the payment of compensation to officers who'd suffered the life-long disability of hearing loss in the past."
He continued: "Mr Kelly should reconsider his decision. He's entitled to make a claim, but not to bring the system into disrepute. If he doesn't withdraw the claim, the hope is that it will be treated with the contempt it deserves."

painting old unpainted drywall
I am about to paint my garage walls. the drywall is 10 years old and unpainted. some walls have not been mudded yet.
I was told to prime with a sealer 1st and finish with the drywall tape and mud after and prime again and then paint. The walls are dirty with bbq smoke and some small water stain's. Any way of cleaning this before priming??? The drywall paper has yellowed. not sure if this is a problem. So do i finish the tape and mud first or prime and seal 1st.?? |
I would first clean. I doubt the unsealed drywall will wash. You could try a small area. Your best bet will probably be a broom or maybe a shop/vac to pull off anything loose like dust dirt, etc. Then tape/mud. As for stains and smoke. I would then spot prime any water stains with something like BIN or KILZ, they might bleed through otherwise. Then prime and paint as normal.
I would use a semigloss sheen paint I think. It wont hold or attract the dirt and is more easily cleaned. On the other hand a flat paint will better hide any imperfections in the surface. Hmmm. My personal preference would be to put up slatwall but that's sick expensive. |
