How are you storing your air compressor hose? Ours is always on the floor in a heap. DH is wanting to get a reel for it. Does anyone else have one? Any suggestions as to types. I'm thinking there are ones like a water hose reel and there are ones that hang from the ceiling. What are pros and cons of both. DH tools are all in the garage so we can't go too fancy. Thanks for your ideas. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I just purchased a retractable hose reel from Northern Tool. It hangs from the ceiling with 50 ft of hose ($200). Its awesome. If you go that route...dont skimp on the quality. Get either a Coxreel or Reelcraft...no Chinese junk for me. |

Assiniboia Downs Cancels May 9 Card
Because of a lack of entries, live racing at Assiniboia Downs has been canceled for Friday, May 9.
Because of a lack of entries, live racing at Assiniboia Downs has been canceled for Friday, May 9.

When entries are drawn Oct. 31, here is what some of fields might look like read blog
Whether Hollywood Park's cancellation of its April 30 card due to insufficient entries will require a move to a four-day week is something track officials aren't ready to discuss. The cancellation resulted when attempts on both April 26 and April 28 to fill the Thursday card failed to yield enough entries to conduct racing.
Del Mar plans to fine tune its entry procedure this summer but maintain the same routine for scratches during its 43-day shore racing season that is off and running on July 18.
As post positions were drawn Wednesday for Saturday's Belmont Stakes (gr. I), the field finally settled in at seven runners after a few horsemen decided that the Belmont would be, then wouldn't be, a fine race in which to run their horses.
Churchill Downs will accept entries for races during its upcoming Oct. 29-Nov. 25 Fall Meet and subsequent race meets three days in advance of those races.
A total of 96 California and Florida breds were entered for Saturday's $3.6 million Sunshine Millions eight-race series at Gulfstream and Santa Anita.

i been searching a while, and decided i want to go with a forged wheel. ive narrowed it down to either weld or centerlines. i was wondering if any of you guys could leave some of your guys personal reviews if you had experience with any of these companies wheels. i dont mind paying the premium if the price is worth it, cause i know welds are pricey as heck. i appreciate all input. thanks in advance.
just a sample of the wheels im looking at:
centerline scout (size: 17x9, BS: 4.5", offset: -12mm)
weld racing t50 (size: 17x10, BS: 4.8", offset: -19mm)

IE equivalent of margin-top
I have an image that I want to nudge down like 10px. So I declared a class in the style like this:
Code:<style type="text/css"> .pic { margin-top:10px; } </style>
Code:<img src="blah.jpg" class="pic">
As usual, this works fine in Firefox, but is completely ignored in IE. I know how to code CSS for IE only but I need to know the equivalent command to "margin-top" that IE actually listens to.
any suggestions? thanks for your input guys

I just tested this in Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox 1.5 and the CSS margin properties are working equivalently in either browser unless the image display is set to block, in which case Internet Explorer doesn't honor margins. However, the padding property continues to work so you could use that instead to achieve approximately the same effect. Otherwise, you could also set the image display to inline or surround it with a division tag.
For every complex problem, there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.

Lavender: 10 Natural Health Benefits and Healing Uses
Posted By Worker Bee On October 30, 2007 @ 5:04 pm In Nutrition,Prevention,Stress,Top 10 Lists | 16 Comments
Over the course of the next few weeks we will be highlighting the health benefits of various herbs that offer natural healing properties.
Lavender: Benefits
10. Scent
Crush fresh lavender between your fingers or rub lavender oil on your temples for a soothing dose of aromatherapy stress relief. Lavender relieves anxiety and tension naturally.
9. Tea
Did you know that steeping a small handful of lavender flowers in boiling water creates a healthful herbal tea? This is just as effective as chamomile for promoting sleep and helping to soothe frazzled nerves.
8. Perfume
Lavender oil makes a nice, chemical-free alternative to perfumes and colognes. Dab a little at the back of your neck or wrists to smell clean and light.
7. Bath
Adding either oil or fresh buds to a hot bath will promote relaxation and ease tired muscles.
6. Sleep accessories
Tie up fresh flowers in a satchel, small pillow case, or reusable eye pillow. Lavender helps you to sleep better.
5. Skin relief
Is your skin burned, chafed or irritated? Add some lavender oil to your moisturizer or a spray water bottle and apply or mist your skin generously.
4. Sweet, fresh-scented laundry
Tie up a bundle of lavender blossoms in a cloth and add them to the dryer cycle when you do laundry. It beats those chemical sheets!
3. Cuts and scrapes
Lavender has natural antiseptic properties. Use lavender oil as a protective salve instead of rubbing alcohol (this is a nice alternative for children).
2. Dandruff
Between vinegar and lavender, who needs those harsh chemical shampoos? Steep lavender as you would to make tea; allow to cool and use as a rinse daily until dandruff is cleared up.
1. Recipes
Lavender makes an unusual, floral accent in many dishes. Reader Sarah C. grills peach halves wrapped in applewood smoked bacon and tops them with a sprinkling of lavender flowers and crushed black pepper. Get creative!

But whose justice? His own? The government's? The Supreme Court's?
No. God's.
Don't trust me on this one. In what may be the most beautiful document written in the 20th century, "Letter from aBirmingham Jail," King identified his source of inspiration:
We will win our freedom because the sacred heritage of our nation and the eternal will of God are embodied in our echoing demands.
How does one determine whether a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law.
That was King speaking with clarity. He was fearless, and he was faithful, and that's what made him so dangerous to segregationists and racists. And that's why totalitarians always get rid of God as their first order of business.
But King also invoked God's mercy in his speeches. And nonviolence was his methodology. Peaceful protests, he thought, were the most effective way to stir the conscience of a nation.
Not everyone agreed with King's approach in the early 1960s. A young Muslim named Malcolm X had a different vision for black America. Malcolm X was a member of the Nation of Islam and a follower of its leader, Elijah Muhammad. Like King, Malcolm X was a brilliant orator, but he had little tolerance for King's Christian emphasis on nonviolence — especially the whole part about loving our enemies, and the part about loving the same white people who had mistreated so many black people in our country.
Indeed, Malcolm X thought King was weak and his message feeble. On more than one occasion, he publicly accused King of being an Uncle Tom, a tool of the white establishment. In his "Message to the Grass Roots," in Detroit 1963, he described the role of an Uncle Tom:
The same old slave master today has negroes who are nothing but modern Uncle Toms, 20th-century Uncle Toms, to keep you and me in check, keep us passive and peaceful and nonviolent. That's Tom making you nonviolent.
Malcolm X wasn't just taunting King; he was mocking his faith. In the same Detroit speech, he decried King's Christian nonviolence.
A revolution is bloody. Revolution is hostile. Revolution knows no compromise. Revolution overturns and destroys everything that gets in its way. And you sit around here like a knot on a wall saying, "I'm going to love these folks no matter how much they hate me." No, you need a revolution.
Malcolm X thought that all of the hymns, all the prayer, and all the church activity was just plain silly:
Whoever heard a revolution where they lock arms . . . singing "We Shall Overcome"? Just tell me. You don't do that in a revolution. You don't do any singing; you're too busy swinging.
Talk about two competing visions.
Luckily for America, King's Christian impulse prevailed.
You won't hear any of this on TV or the radio this week. The media will ignore all of the yucky, messy God talk, all of the icky Jesus talk.
And you won't ever hear the secular Left invoke the separation of church and state when it comes to King's legacy. You will never hear the secular Left complain that King used the power of his pulpit, and the power of his Christian faith, to change the culture and, indeed, change the law.

"I absolutely loved these invites! They were easy to order and the customer service was excellent! Loved it that you could choose to have them look over the details for free! Tiny Prints understands that you have to treat customers right in order to increase business. Also impressed with how fast the invites were delivered!"
"The invitations were adorable and sweet. We received many comments from our guests. The thickness and weight of the card were exactly what I wanted not flimsy and light. I received my order within few days. I would recommend this product to you. You won't be disappointed."
"I ordered these invitations for a baby shower I am hosting for my Niece. Since we do not yet know if she will be having a boy or a girl, I was worried the selection would be limited. Not only did I find a nice assortment of "gender neutral" designs, I absolutely adored the card that was ultimately selected. I ordered the invitation in Pearlized paper with the scalloped edges and it is fantastic. I highly recommend this design/paper selection."
"Love the quality of the paper. Baby shower invitations are a keepsake for the mom-to-be and this is one she will want to hold on to!"
"The invitations are beautiful! The paper quality feels so professional that the Mother-to-be complimented it immediately. She was stunned by the scalloped border and the small touch of the yellow, striped back. It's the little details that make it perfect and this invitation hit the nail on the head. I highly recommend this invitation to anyone looking to host a classy Baby Shower."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

500D Tow
Well I have my new 500D Tow pretty much dialed in now. I just finished weathering it. I have a 5 blade head and scale blades coming so I already have the AP2000i and gyros installed and setup to go flybarless. I do have a bit more vibration showing in the fuselage than I like. It showed up after I attached the rear frame mount to the floor of the fuselage. It is really hard to get to so I was just using the front mount and letting the tail support the rear. The vibration is probably coming from the cheap blades and isn't enough to effect the gyros/flight performance. I will probably leave it as is until I get the nead head and blades.
I am using the HK500GT, Turnigy ESC, HK Typhoon motor and Hyperion and Align (tail) servos. I also have a DeLight led sequencer for the nav lights and plan on installing a search light as well. I use 3000mah and 4200mah 6s and get 5.5 min flights with the 3300 and 8 min with the 4200. It it really stable and smooth. I will get some ff video soon.

Thanks. yeah I turned it up a bit and it helped. These are the stock blades and are rubbish. Tracking goes out with small rpm changes. Flies ok for now. I will see what happens when I get the 5 blade head on.
By the way, did any of you guys have to add any dead weight to get the correct cog? I was having it pitch up and climb pretty bad during ff and checked my cg. It was way tail heavy. Guess i didn't notice because it hovered fine. I was able to move the battery forward and get it close. it is right on with some of my batteries but a little back still with some of my other batteries. |

So I wanted to buy the HeliArtist 500 size 5 blade head and could not find it in stock. I emailed HeliArtist and asked who had it. They said that they just sent a shipment to Flying-hobby.com. So I placed an order from them even though it was out of stock. I spoke to flying-hobby and they said it should ship the following week. Well that week came and went so I spoke to them again and they said it still isn't available and to wait another week. I then contacted HeliArtist again and they (Kenneth) said that their shipment had already been received the day before. I sent this info to Flying-hobby and said someone isn't telling me the truth and to either ship the item or refund my money. Flying-hobby refunded my money via paypal within a couple hours so kudos to them.
I am still perplexed on what was going on. I know there is a bit of a language barrier there but it is strange that I never got any kind of explanation of what the issue was. Oh well, I found the head in stock in the UK and have it on order. I wish Smartmodel carried that head as I had good service from then when I ordered the blades. |

Really? I looked at it but everything I have found said it was a bad design and had problems. Hmm, I would have considered it if I had known there was some good experiences out there with them.

Ah ok. I had heard the V2 was better but also heard that scaleflying.com dropped them because they wouldn't fix some serious flaws and that they are now sourcing some heads built to their own specs. Oh well. I should have this one in a week or so.
By the way, I have heard that adding weight to the tips of the blades really helps in multi blade setups. Did you do that? i have the plastic scale blades from smartmodel coming and am not sure if it is even possible to add weight to those. Oh, and does your heli balance out perfectly or is it tail/nose heavy a bit? thanks |

Britain's tough task: resupply Navy 8,000 miles away
If Britain seeks to expel Argentina from the Falkland Islands with a combination of air, sea, and ground forces, its mission is replete with problems and dangers, say defense experts.
But the daunting task of resupplying a force 8,000 miles away from home bases and storming onto heavily defended islands is not beyond its capacities, they stress.
If the British capture of frigid South Georgia signals an Anglo-Argentine war over the Falklands, as now seems possible, Britain faces the task of setting up an effective air blockade of the islands. It would also face the task of landing a sufficiently large and heavily armed force to neutralize between 8,000 and 10, 000 Argentine troops now dug into the Falklands.
According to The Times of London, an advance contingent of Royal Marine commandos has already landed in the Falklands, an assertion denied by the British Ministry of Defense.
''If the opposition is pretty strong and you don't have a very good, orchestrated, and powerful capability, you just don't get ashore,'' declares John M. Collins, senior specialist in national defense at the Library of Congress.
Combined operations are ''the most difficult kind,'' naval expert Norman Polmar adds, ''especially when the enemy is waiting for you at virtually the extremity of a very long logistics line.''
The problem of refueling and resupplying the British flotilla - which includes the aircraft carriers Invincible and Hermes and the assault ships Fearless and Intrepid - is a formidable one British naval officers admit, but not an insuperable one.
Collins is less sanguine. ''You're looking at a logistical nightmare,'' he says.
The only significant stepping stone Britain can use in its South Atlantic operations is Ascension Island, where the Union Jack has flown since 1815 and which lies some 3,500 miles from the Falklands. Reportedly troops and supplies continue to pour into the island by air.
But Collins is not impressed with the island's utility. ''It sure isn't a very good staging area or a resupply area,'' he says. ''It's like calling Diego Garcia a good staging post for operations in the Middle East when it's 2,000 miles from the Strait of Hormuz.''

Dear fans and art collectors,

Let me know if you're interested at email@example.com.
Dear Fans and Art collectors,
I have two Oil on Canvas Paintings which Miles Davis painted for my mother in the 90's, and unfortunately I have to consider selling due to personal circumstances.
Please let me know if it might be of anybody's interest.
Thank you in advance,
P.D. You can contact me under firstname.lastname@example.com
If I wanted to showcase artwork on here do I sent to the manager of this site or just post on my comment section?
Hello, I am student of the fine arts in France and I painted a triptych on Miles Davis, in three period of his life. Whoever to interest here is my e-mail: email@example.com. Thank you
To see them it is here : http://sebcoueffic.wix.com/scoueffic-#!2013/cgwr
I have a small -- maybe 11 x 14 -- pen and ink drawing on beige cardboard-like that says Miles Davis sideways, along the side, that is. Might this be an original Miles work? Where could I see what his signature looked like?
I bought a drawing by Miles in 2002 at the Sadlers Row Gallery,in Petworth,UK.
It's called 'On Stage' and I want to know when it was painted.
It's for sale if anybody is interested.
Please contact me firstname.lastname@example.com
HI, im an artist from the UK who has just finished a painting of miles davis. I think if you are a big fan of miles like I am someone would love it. If even just curious I'd love to hear back from someone.
Hi, yes, I have an acrylic on canvas original painting by Miles and Jo Gelbard called ' What it is'. It is 60"by 30" approx and was pained in summer 1990. It is signed by Miles and is, in my opinion, a brilliant expression of Miles' inner demons and genius.
I bought it in 2005 and am selling it reluctantly to fund another venture.
I'm asking £50,000 sterling which is very good value given its likely future value and the fact that there are so few of these originals. Please contact me on firstname.lastname@example.com if you are interested.
Is there any chance to buy Miles' paintings prints? or reproductions?

Queen, David Bowie Producer David Richards Dies
David Richards, who produced or co-produced albums by Queen, David Bowie, Iggy Pop and others, died today after a long battle with an undisclosed illness.
David Richards, who produced or co-produced albums by Queen, David Bowie, Iggy Pop and others, died today after a long battle with an undisclosed illness.
Last month we learned that the Queen biopic was in trouble due to Sacha Baron Cohen, who was set to play Freddie Mercury, leaving the project. In a new interview, guitarist Brian May gave his account of why it wasn't meant to be.
Queen drummer Roger Taylor premiered a new song on BBC Radio over the weekend. It's the first track to see the light of day from his upcoming solo album, which was announced almost a year ago.
Sacha Baron Cohen cited "creative differences" when he departed the developing Freddie Mercury biopic earlier this year, and reports at the time suggested that Mercury's surviving bandmates in Queen were looking to produce a sanitized version of the flamboyant frontman's life story. But according to drummer Roger Taylor, that isn't entirely accurate.
Adam Lambert isn't the only singer with a spot behind the microphone for Queen.
No matter how much you love music, nobody's a fan of every artist, and just about every music fan grew up being rubbed the wrong way by at least one popular act. For former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr, that list includes Queen.
It's possible that a new Queen album with vocals by Freddie Mercury could be coming out in the near future. Over the weekend, guitarist Brian May said that the band discovered some new previously unreleased material in its archives.
Last year, Rovio paid tribute to Freddie Mercury by creating a video featuring one of their Angry Birds characters as the Queen frontman as part of the annual "Freddie for a Day" celebration. Now, they have taken their love for him one step further and integrated him into this week's installment of Angry Birds Friends.
Back in June it was announced that the tribute concert held in 1992 in memory of Freddie Mercury would soon be released on DVD and Blu-ray in a remastered and expanded package. Now it has been revealed that 'The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert: The Definitive Edition' will be available on Sept. 3, two days before what would have been the Queen frontman's 67th birthday.
After playing London's West End for more than a decade and selling 15 million tickets worldwide, 'We Will Rock You' -- the "rock theatrical" produced in conjunction with Queen's Brian May and Roger Taylor -- will finally tour North America for the first time.

As far as the PayPal part, you have to have a Merchant Account with PayPal, and they will give you an automated payment CGI address that you post your forms to.
I don't think this is easier said than done. It's not hard to do, but the form is the easy part, it's processing the form that will be a bit of work (and this is where the PHP will come into play).
The PHP form processor will have to create and send the email to your email address, and then use Snoopy or cURL to post the data to PayPal, and then re-direct the user to a Thank You page of some sort (or wherever you want to redirect the user to.. it wouldn't hurt to use PayPal's IPN to show whether the payment was successul or not..).
You also have to take into account that you want the form to look nice and match the rest of your website. When you've contacted PayPal to get the Merchant account, they'll not only give you the CGI page, but also the various parameters they'll need when you post your data to their CGI.
So that's what you or someone will have to do.. I'm not going to do it. You may want to post on the Work Offers page.. Are you expecting this done for free or are you paying? You have to state that in that post. You should probably link this thread in that one so people have a bit of background on what needs to happen.
Good luck,

Sorry for barging in here like that but I've got a really hard headache and I hope someone in here may have had the same plus have survived and are feeling generous enough to share their secrets. A senior guru with a single-fix-for-all solution is fine too. But hey, I imagine this should be a very common issue, so this whole lengthy post with any contributions should be of great help to our future generations of gimps.
The goal is extremely simple: take a picture, any picture, and print a poster of it a.k.a blow it onto a chosen number of A4 papers.
I've searched for such a plugin or script but I'm pretty much sure there is none, so the closest one I came up with was slice-save.scm which is basically Guillotine that saves the created images into files rather than opens them as new.
For the sake of simplicity let's say I want to have a picture 8x8 A4s big, landscape. So that's 64 pages totalling up to 2.38 meters wide and 1.68 meters tall (in reality that'd be a bit less, but more on that at the end).
So here's my version of the final solution:
1) Create a new A4-sized image on 300dpi (I've assumed 300 should be enough for a mediocre human eye to not notice the pixels). You get an image that's 3508px x 2480px big. Do Image > Canvas Size and with aspect ratio preserved try and work out how many pixels you will need to add to your poster picture to make it match the aspect ratio of an A4 page. That is, enter the width of your poster picture into the width of the A4 canvas; if the new height is less that the height of your poster picture, you will need to enter the height and note down the width instead.
2) The scripts we're gonna be using is based on guides, so open up calculator, and find out where your guides will be situated at. For that you will need to take the width of an A4 paper, for a 300dpi one you take 3508, hit "+", type in 3508 and hit "=". Note the resulting number (7016) down, hit "=" again, note it down, hit "=" again, note it down, etc. Do the same for height (2480). If you've done it right, you should now have a similar list:
1= 3508 x 2480
2= 7016 x 4960
3= 10524 x 7440
4= 14032 x 9920
5= 17540 x 12400
6= 21048 x 14880
7= 24556 x 17360
8= 28064 x 19840
So all the widths here will be vertical guides, and all the heights will be horizontal guides. Obviously you don't need a guide for the last one, but don't lose that number since that will be the final size of your poster image (I know, it's a dozen gigs uncompressed or ~40 megs as a PNG)
3) Okay here's goes the "fun" bit: after you've added the necessary pixels for your poster picture to match the ratio of an A4 paper (step 1) you now do Image > Scale Image, choose Cubic for interpolation and enter 28064 into width. After you've chosen "Scale" you are free to leave your computer, go out into the real world meet people etc. Leave it for 10-30 minutes. On your return you will see your computer either: a) crashed b) working c) still processing.
4) Let's assume you're very lucky, so what do you do when you've gotten away with something really big? You push the limits of abuse further: Filters > Distorts > Newsprint. I found this effect makes the poster look "cool" and sends the enduser a subliminal message to quit looking for pixels and enjoy the art. Again you go out and do something useful with your time.
5) If you're still feeling lucky save the image as a PNG or XCF, because your luck is about to run out. Go for another walk.
6) Alright, time for guides: bring up your notes (step 2) and set up the 14 guides according to them: 7 vertical and 7 horizontal
7) Assuming you've already got the slice-save.scm script in your GIMP-2.x/share/gimp/x.x/scripts (if not do that and go to Filters > Script Fu > Refresh Scripts), start the Script-Fu > Slice and Save, choose PNG, choose a destination, and prepare for what should've came at you long time ago.
8) Heh, sorry but you are unlikely to get past step 7, because your computer will either have crashed due to a lack of memory or ran out of disk space and crashed into oblivion. I've got quite a modern core duo with 7 GIGS of free space on my drive C: and the quota was nearing 100MB with GIMP haven't even processed page 6 out of 64
Anyone's got any suggestions?
By the way, ideally there would be a step 9 where you'd add a single pixel border around each exported file - that would come useful when trying to figure out at what angle you need to cut each sheet, assuming your printer is just like any other common printer, unable to fetch the paper correctly, resulting in contents being printed with margins of varying angles.

Well Margit still has problems now with her back, but it's a lot better then it was last year. Next tournament she will paly is in Minsk on the 1st of March. SHe should be able to get in QD there. A real pain for her right now because of the ranking. SHe should play a league-tournament in Estonia in next week and after that going back to ITF. She just needs some practise matches.
Apr 2nd, 2010, 12:13 PM
Margit is back officially now and playing as many tournaments as she can get in. Right now she will stay in Egypt for 3 weeks. This and next week has a 10,000 USD tournament and right after those a 25,000 USD tournament. Good luck Margit. Good start by now, has already reached QF on the first one. Hopefully she can win at least one of those tournaments. Really need the boost in rankings.

Jan 5th, 2014, 01:41 AM
According to a comment in one of our news portals she is a hitting partner / part time coach for a Polish girl living in US, so she enters the same tournaments as her.
Jan 5th, 2014, 02:11 AM
MARGIT RUUTEL TENNIS :oh:
With this whole way of dealing with unranked people I think they need to take into consideration Junior Results and Former WTA Rank. It is ridiculous IMO that a former WTA Top 200 player can not make the Qualifying for a 25K ahead of random unranked Americans :help:
Jan 5th, 2014, 07:08 PM
Yeah she's working with Victoria zukowski. There was a short video of margiit hitting on YouTube and she's played a money tournament reaching the Semifinals losing to a girl who's a top us junior going to ucla Kristen Wiley. She did beat wta ranked Michelle sammons.

Keiji Inafune gained fame as the creator of Mega Man, and he also gained further notoriety for his strong views on the Japanese game industry. He was outspoken both when he worked for Capcom, and in the years since he left while working on games as diverse as Soul Sacrifice and Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z. Now Inafune is making waves again, this time announcing a Kickstarter campaign for Mighty No. 9, a series that is unabashedly a spiritual successor to Mega Man.
The Kickstarter page went live after Inafune revealed the game during a panel at this year's PAX Prime in Seattle, and the page reveals many more Mega Man veterans are involved in the game beyond Inafune-san. The goal is a very fitting $900,000, and the title is currently only planned for PC. However, Inafune says that other consoles could come down the line if stretch goals are met.
Above: Mighty No. 9's real name is Beck, which is totally different from Mega Man's real name, Rock
So what say you? The concept art looks incredibly close to the beloved Blue Bomber, but can Inafune pull off the same magic again (assuming he even reaches the steep funding goal)? And should it come together, are Mega Man fans ready to wait until April 2015 to play enjoy the franchise's spiritual successor?

These shots by Tony Duran feature the Leonardoaguirre Fall 2010 collection as modeled by Jordan Coulter. Oversized knit hooded cardigans, white long johns and tailored trousers all play nice in this photo shoot for the Los Angeles-based clothing collective.
My favorite shot from this Tony Duran Leonardoaguirre Fall 2010 pictorial is the first one, in which Jordan Colter pairs knits with a rad spiked police cap.

I'm not sure if this will help or make me more frustrated, but since I'm frustrated already, I don't suppose it will hurt. I know what I want in a tire, I know what I like in a tire, I've read reviews on all of these or they wouldn't have made the list. What I'm looking for are opinions on these from y'all. Which tire would you choose and why? Here's some background:
They need to perform well in snow and rain, this is my daily driver with some off-road adventures, but not as many recently....sigh. I'm not buying these right away (Hubby gets the next mod), so I can save up if something more pricey wins, but I'd really rather go with something not crazy (or at least "not crazy" in my world!) Oh, and I would really like some road song...I really miss that..... Here's four divisions by price.
I can live with the price:
Firestone Destination AT
General Grabber AT2
Bridgestone Deuler AT RH/S
Moving into the top of my price comfort zone:
Bridgestone AT Revo
What the hell, let's mortgage the house:
Have no real pricing info or reviews on these last (couldn't find any):
Cooper Discoverer STT or Radial LT
And this is the SHORT list. If anyone is still awake after this book, tell me what you think please! Thank you!

Reken Pendragon
Reken rode a top of his white horse. The horse was an ice elemental. Particles of ice dust flew off its mane and tail. The horse's size was outside the normal range adding to the horse's presence. He was headed towards an outpost that was near the barrier. He was going there to see an old friend from his past. He pulled back on the reigns to slow his horse to a stop. His friend was their to greet him with a smile. Before he could even leap off of his horse he was stopped. "Lyn?" Reken questioned his friend as she stood there with a grim look on her face. "Reken, the reason I sent for you so urgently is because the war is about to start again. The troops lay in wait for the fall of the barrier. They have even brought the Wings of Bahamut here. I hope you and Aria's people are ready. You must hurry to their aide ! I shall remain here and try my best to supply you with information !"
Reken pulled hard at the reigns. His eyes were trained on the barrier. It was still there, maybe he would be able to get there before the fighting started and send Aria some sort of warning. Those thoughts were quickly quelled when the barrier shattered. With in moments the sky went black and he knew what the cause was. He did not even have to whip the reigns for his horse to know to go even faster. When he got to Aria only a few moments later he could already hear the cries of war and see flames, lightning, and ice from the dragons being rained down upon the unsuspecting people of Aria. This wave would be followed but the ground dragons with foot troops within the coming hours. He cursed himself for a moment but readied himself for the task at hand. He needed to help push his own people back or, at the very least, help hold them off while everyone else escaped.
His horse covered itself in armor of ice it conjured itself. Reken patted his partner "Are you ready, Kouje"? The horse let out grunt and stamped his hooves on the ground before charging in. Reken readied his spear for combat. When he entered the city people were running and the guards were defending them, but they were already scattered and in disarray. He expected this and was not phased by this. Reken and Kouje charged towards a dragon who had his back turned towards him. Leaping off Kouje Reken landed on the back of the beast and climbed towards the rider who was oblivious to him. Reken ran the rider through. He had wounded the rider enough to put him out of battle without killing him. The dragon, now aware of the unwanted person on its back, turned its head and blew fire out of its mouth.
Reken slide from the dragon on to the ground dodging the fire. He then preceded to stab the dragon in its exposed underside piercing the heart. The dragon's bode fell lifelessly onto the ground. It was there that Reken saw a woman who was obviously the intended target. A knight, whom had seen what Reken had just done, landed behind Reken with a loud thud and cursed at him for felling his comrade. Kouje came alongside Reken and pierced the dragon through its chest with a massive icicle.

Galactic Goofs: The 10 Stupidest Crew Mistakes in 'Prometheus'
Boiling Point By Robert Fure on June 11, 2012 | Comments (133)It was perhaps the most anticipated movie of the year after The Dark Knight Rises, but Ridley Scott's return to the Alien world in Prometheus has been anything but universally embraced. While many enjoyed the film, an equal (at least) amount disliked it. Regardless of what camp you fall into, I think we can all agree that the crew of Prometheus the ship and Prometheus the movie were pretty stupid, for being future geniuses and all. Here, we count down the ten stupidest decisions and actions made by the crew in Ridley Scott's Prometheus. Of course, there are tons of spoilers inside.
Features By Jack Giroux on June 8, 2012 | Comments (9)"Who doesn't love an orgy, Jack?," Prometheus co-writer Damon Lindelof asked me, possibly being the first person to ask me such a thing. But, really, who could disagree with Mr. Lindelof? Ridley Scott's sci-fi opus is filled with all kinds of beings, making for the vicious and high-minded brand of orgy. What does the film have to say about if we, our creators, and our creations all got together and "partied" for a few days? In short: we'd eat each other. Prometheus is a story of characters making mostly questionable decisions, leading to horrific events. Even at the end when a character acknowledges humanity's greatest flaw, that said character continues to do what they all get wrong in the first place, which is: asking too many questions. The film is about the dangers of searching for answers, a hurdle Lindelof, as a writer, has famously faced before. Here's what the screenwriter had to say about the dark and hopeful side of Prometheus, the egoism of David, and the Mad Libs-esque storytelling he's drawn to in our spoiler-heavy discussion:
Review: 'Prometheus' Is Big, Bold Entertainment That Values Grand Ideas at the Expense of the Details
Movie Reviews By Rob Hunter on June 6, 2012 | Comments (12)Expectations can be dangerous things. Ridley Scott's twentieth feature film is a return to a genre that he hasn't visited in thirty years, but it's also one that's simultaneously been quite good to him. Alien and Blade Runner are seminal works of science fiction that went on to influence a multitude of future films, and by any stretch of the imagination they set an impossibly high bar for anyone to reach (let alone the director of A Good Year). Like some ambitiously misguided mash-up of those earlier movies Prometheus features stark futuristic settings, scenes of graphic biological horror and grand questions on what it means to be human, but while its pieces excite and engage its whole fails to form anything resembling a finished thesis. Instead we have big ideas in the form of casual statements destined to go unchallenged. It can't be overstated how frustrating this is when so many of the film's smaller elements leap from the screen (in 3D or 2D) to make our eyes widen, our pulses race and our minds quiver at the possibilities. Stunningly beautiful visuals, both natural and effects-wise, help create a dangerously seductive world that wraps viewers in slime covered tentacles and thoughts. Call-backs (call-forwards?) to Alien tease us with answers and even more questions while other parts offer enticing glimpses of creation itself. This is epic science fiction storytelling that too frequently forgets it's telling a story and yet still manages to be worthwhile spectacle in spite of itself.
Movie News After Dark: Swimsuit Models, Django Unchained Posters, Ridley Scott vs. Tapes and Finding Nemo 3D
Movie News By Neil Miller on June 1, 2012 | Comments (2)What is Movie News After Dark? It's a nightly movie news column that's not usually quite this sexy. You might want to send the kids to bed early… It's not every night that we begin with the objectification of a woman who poses in slim garb on magazines that don't ever sell any swimsuits, but when said dames are Anne Vayalitsyna, the new addition to A Good Day to Die Hard, there's now two ways about it. The babe goes up top.
Scoot McNairy Will Re-Team with Brad Pitt in '12 Years a Slave'
Casting Couch By Scott Beggs on May 23, 2012 | Be the First To CommentScoot McNairy and Brad Pitt recently tag teamed Cannes with Killing Them Softly, which is apparently pretty good. Unsurprisingly.So it's probably unsurprising that the pair are going to be working together again in Steve McQueen's Twelve Years a Slave. Speaking of people who love working together, the film stars Michael Fassbender as a plantation owner who buys a free man (played by Chiwetel Ejiofor) who is kidnapped and sold into slavery. According to Variety, McNairy will be playing a "shrewd circus worker" who has his eye on selling a free man as a slave. Hopefully McNairy can sell cabbage-smelling hands in a medium without scent.
Cruel Paul Dano to Return in Steve McQueen's 'Twelve Years A Slave'
Casting Couch By Kate Erbland on May 21, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWe'll soon be seeing Paul Dano starring in cutesy romance Ruby Sparks (co-starring alongside his own real life lady love, Zoe Kazan, who also penned the screenplay), but as wonderful as a sweet Dano is, there's something much better: a cruel Dano. While a lot of the praise for P.T. Anderson's There Will Be Blood went (quite deservedly) to Daniel Day-Lewis for his yowling, evil performance as Daniel Plainview, Dano was just as terrifying (and just as unhinged) as Eli Sunday. Something about seeing Dano's generally welcoming face twisted up into snarls and howls and screams was viciously unsettling, and it's been too long since we've seen that side of him. Deadline Franklin reports that's no longer the case, as we'll soon be gifted with a particularly cruel Dano in Steve McQueen's Twelve Years A Slave, where he will play a slave owner who "brutalizes" Chiwetel Ejiofor's character, a free man who is abducted into the Louisiana slave trade. Dano will, in fact, just be one of the evil owners, but his performance will likely be a stand-out. He and Ejiofor will also be joined in the film by McQueen's consistent star, Michael Fassbender, along with Brad Pitt.
Movie News After Dark: More 'Chronicle' Found Footage, Oodles of Marvel Stuff, 'Casablanca,' 'Millennium,' and Fassbender's Missed Opportunity
Movie News By Kevin Carr on May 15, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Movie News After Dark? This week, it is like the idiotic parents' suburban Pasadena home in Project X. The responsible party is taking some time off, so he has handed the keys to some of us on staff, and we are having the Movie News After Dark House Party of the century. We're doing our best to remain somewhat respectable and deliver some entertainment news you may have missed this week, but at some point we all know we'll put a dwarf in the oven. On with the show. The first story is one you've likely seen already this weekend, but it's worth repeating for the sheer joy it brings. This weekend, Movies.com published the story of George Lucas doing something we can all get behind. After decades of trying to develop land in Marin County to make the biggest movie studio in the galaxy, and with his snooty neighbors blocking the $300m a year initiative for fear of causing problems, he has decided to develop low-income housing. Finally, people can pat him on the back and forget about Jar Jar, Han shooting first and a certain crystal skull.
Screenwriter Jon Spaihts Reveals and Creates More Shadows With 'Prometheus'
Features By Jack Giroux on May 14, 2012 | Comments (1)The site's most anticipated film of the summer, Prometheus, has long been kept under lock and key for sometime now. "Is it an Alien prequel or isn't it?" Obviously, the film shares stylistic and world ties to Alien, but would we see the origin of the Xenomorph? That's a question which remains a mystery, a big question mark that the film's co-writer Jon Spaihts may or not have taken on with his work. The questions Spaihts, director Sir Ridley Scott, and Damon Lindelof are exploring are clear: searching for answers we should not have the answer for, what it means to be human, and the mystery of the Space Jockey. Answering some of those major questions can't be easy, but, as Jon Spaihts put it, although Prometheus will shed light on some burning questions fandom has, it could possibly create new ones as well. Here is what screenwriter Jon Spaihts had to say about building a whole world, the thematic and visual importance of a female protagonist, and why Prometheus is more 28 Days Later than 28 Weeks Later:
Can Cameron Diaz Actually Act? She'll Have to If She Joins Ridley Scott's 'The Counselor'
Casting Couch By Kate Erbland on May 9, 2012 | Comments (1)We've been pretty closely following the development and casting news of Ridley Scott's The Counselor (written by no less than Cormac McCarthy), and while the bulk of casting so far has been quite exciting (Michael Fassbender, Javier Bardem, and Brad Pitt, to name the big guns), this is the first rumor that gives us pause. Twitch Film is reporting that Cameron Diaz has landed a role in the film, one Angelina Jolie was once hotly pursuing. The role of Malkina is one of two big female parts in the film, making this one of Diaz's most juicy (and somewhat unexpected) gigs yet. While Diaz has yet to show that she's capable of truly carrying a dark and dramatic role on her own, she has dipped her toe in interesting fare, stuff like The Box, Gangs of New York, and Being John Malkovich. She's also continued to work on her comedic talents, showing a sort of weird fearlessness in recent roles, particularly the not-so-flattering Bad Teacher. And, hell, she's even playing the female lead in the Coen brothers-penned Gambit remake, so perhaps Diaz is ready to take the next step in her acting career.
Fox Confirms Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus' Will Get R-Rating
Movie News By Kate Erbland on May 7, 2012 | Comments (1)It's okay, everyone, our long national nightmare is over – we finally know that Ridley Scott's heavily anticipated maybe-prequel to Alien, Prometheus, will be rated R. So much for toning down the "sci-fi violence" to get a younger crowd into theaters (though the odds of scads of thirteen-year-olds showing up for the film seem somewhat slim). After a few weeks of chatter revolving on whether or not the film would end up with a PG-13 rating to presumably pull in larger crowds, a pre-sale ticket posted on IMDb (thanks to Collider) revealed the film to be rated R, with 20th Century Fox confirming the news. The film will be rated R for "sci-fi violence including some intense images, and brief language." Language! Heavens me!
'Prometheus' Threatens Civilization With Fantastic New Trailer
Movie News By Scott Beggs on April 30, 2012 | Be the First To CommentAvoiding Prometheus trailers, images and information was just too taxing. They're just putting out too much great stuff. Ridley Scott and his team should be proud of what they've shown so far, and that June 8th release date just cannot come quickly enough. A new international trailer has debuted thanks to the UK's Channel 4 (via Film Stage). It brags a lot of Charlize Theron, a screaming Noomi Rapace and three full minutes of crazy sci-fi action. Check it out for yourself:
Penelope Cruz Negotiating For Leading Lady Role in Star-Studded 'The Counselor'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on April 19, 2012 | Comments (1)The casting process for Ridley Scott's next project, The Counselor, has been an absolute dream for people who like to write down famous people's names. After going through a laundry list of the biggest actors working in Hollywood, Scott has seemed to settle on the titanic trio of Michael Fassbender, Javier Bardem, and Brad Pitt to play the three main male roles in this Cormac McCarthy-penned, lawyer-gone-bad drama. There has yet to be a consensus on who's going to play the lead female role, that of the Fassbender character's fianceé, however. The most recent buzz was that Pitt's real-life fianceé Angelina Jolie was being looked at to come on board, but that never sounded like anything more than a long shot. And, sure enough, a recent report from THR claims that the actress' role in the upcoming Disney film, Maleficent, would conflict with The Counselor's shooting schedule.
New 'Prometheus' Viral Video Wants You To Meet Michael Fassbender's David
Movie News By Scott Beggs on April 17, 2012 | Comments (2)Some of you are avoiding Prometheus advertising like it's the black plague or Cabin in the Woods spoilers or that bookie you owe money to. That's fine. It's understandable for a movie this gigantic, promising and appropriately mysterious. But you'll want to go back after seeing it this summer to check out all the cool stuff you're missing. Guy Pearce's TED Talk was a hell of a way to introduce the world to Ridley Scott's newest sci-fi epic, but now they want to introduce you to someone else: Michael Fassbender's David. Tell him Happy Birthday, find out what he can do, and check out the video yourself:
Gina Carano Takes on ActionFest, Explains The Collision of Wonder Woman and 'Encino Man'
Action Fest By Brian Salisbury on April 15, 2012 | Comments (2)When you think of the typical action hero, the image that immediately leaps to mind is undoubtedly that of a bloody, bandana-clad dude with a massive gun, or a rouge tough guy cop, or perhaps a macho kung-fu master. In other words…males. While action is a genre long dominated by men, there have been a few notable (read: 100% ass-kicking) action heroines that have left their own indelible mark: Sigourney Weaver in Aliens, Linda Hamilton in Terminator 2, and Uma Thurman in Kill Bill. To that list, we must now certainly add Gina Carano, star of Steven Soderbergh's recent action thriller Haywire. Gina however had the advantage of being a certified badass long before throwing her first punch on screen. She is a longtime student of Muay Thai, a former champion MMA fighter, and was in fact involved in some of the first sanctioned female fights in MMA history. With knockout after knockout Carano, an undeniable knockout herself, proved that beauty and strength were far from mutually exclusive. Her work in Haywire, coupled with her successful MMA career, inspired the head honchos at ActionFest to create a new award for which she will be the first recipient. The Chick Norris Best Female Action Star Award, playfully adapted from the name of fest founder (and action legend in his own right) Chuck Norris, celebrates the contribution women have made and continue to make to action cinema. We got a chance to talk to Gina about the award, about Haywire, and, oddly, […]
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Join the Many Names Considering 'The Counselor'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on April 12, 2012 | Comments (1)When Cormac McCarthy writes a script for Hollywood, it seems that everyone and their brother comes out of the woodwork to try and get a job on the production, right quick. It wasn't long after it was announced that his original screenplay, The Counselor, existed before it was also announced that Ridley Scott would be directing and Michael Fassbender was attached to play the lead role. And ever since then, there's been a who's who of entertainment industry royalty lining up to get in on the fun. Not too long ago it was said that Javier Bardem and Jeremy Renner were being looked at for the two remaining male roles, that of the villain and a drug runner, and that Natalie Portman was showing interest in coming in as the female lead.
Fernando Meirelles Wants Michael Fassbender to Play Bobby Kennedy in His Upcoming 'Nemesis'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on April 4, 2012 | Comments (2)City of God director Fernando Meirelles is just off the publicity tour for his latest film, 360, and already he's looking to get work started on his next project, Nemesis, which is an adaptation of the Peter Evans book "Nemesis: The True Story of Aristotle Onassis, Jackie O, and the Love Triangle That Brought Down the Kennedys." As you would probably expect from that title, Nemesis is set to be a drama focusing on the famous Kennedy family, or more specifically, the rivalry between Aristotle Onassis and Bobby Kennedy. At one point Kennedy investigated the magnate's business practices and ended up getting him barred from trading in the United States, and the book goes as far as to assert that the conflict between the two escalated to the point where Onassis ended up financing Kennedy's assassination. That's heavy stuff involving some very iconic figures, so Meirelles is going to have to put together a pretty amazing cast in order to do the material justice. And, to that end, he's taken to Twitter in order to stir up some interest from one of the best actors working today. This morning Meirelles tweeted the following, "Fazendo elenco de Nemesis. Que tal Fassbender para fazer o Bobby Kennedy?" I know what you're thinking…those words look like gibberish. Well, it turns out Meirelles speaks this whole other language that isn't even English. Luckily, through the magic of Google technology, we're now able to translate that what he was tweeting roughly reads, "Making cast of […]
International 'Prometheus' Trailer Completes The Trifecta of Brilliant Sci-Fi Action
Movie News By Neil Miller on March 19, 2012 | Comments (1)If we don't stop it, there may not be a home to go back to. One thing is for sure: the marketing machine at 20th Century Fox has geared up and will not be stopped until we've all pre-ordered tickets for Ridley Scott's Prometheus. In addition to the IMAX teaser and the extended theatrical trailer, we now have this international trailer for the sci-fi epic. It has me thinking — isn't there also a new Batman movie coming out this year? And some sort of superhero team-up thing? I can't seem to remember. By now you should know all the other relevant details, so lets just skip right to the trailer.
New *Full* 'Prometheus' Trailer Offers More Answers, More Questions And a Reason to Live Until June 8th
Movie Trailers By Rob Hunter on March 18, 2012 | Comments (3)Just yesterday we were blessed with a new teaser for Ridley Scott's upcoming film Prometheus, and it was a glorious event. But that glimpse clocked in at just barely over a minute. Today we get a fresh trailer straight from its premiere at WonderCon where Scott joined Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender and Damon Lindelof in what was most likely the sexiest panel to grace a WonderCon stage since Joel Silver and Hilary Swank previewed The Reaping in 2007. They didn't take any relevant questions and offered little in the way of more information, but per EW Scott did tease a little something. "If we're lucky, there will be a second part of this. The film does leave you with some nice big open questions." Have a seat. Prepare to smile uncontrollably. And check out the new trailer below.
New 'Prometheus' Trailer Lands Early, Delivers Big, Beautiful Sci-Fi Action
Movie News By Neil Miller on March 17, 2012 | Comments (3)"Prometheus has landed." Not to be a spoiler, but even though we have not yet completed and published our list of the most anticipated summer movies, there's no way we're leaving Ridley Scott's Prometheus off the list. The prequel/non-prequel to the Alien franchise hasn't shown us much yet in the way of footage, but what it has revealed has been utterly spectacular. This little early look at what we're told will be another trailer debut tomorrow, found thanks to The Film Stage, is yet another road marker toward the film's June 8th release. And yet again, Ridley Scott is hinting at a massive sci-fi epic that will challenge the best of what Summer 2012 has to offer. See for yourself.
'The Counselor' Negotiating With Natalie Portman, Jeremy Renner, and/or Javier Bardem
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on March 10, 2012 | Comments (1)It's getting to the point where there are so many huge names involved in Ridley Scott's upcoming project The Counselor that you can't even write a proper headline about it. Not only does it have a living legend for a director, but this is also a movie that's being shot from an original spec script from a living legend of an author, Cormac McCarthy. Plus its attached star, Michael Fassbender, is one of the most sought-after future icons in the film industry. And now an upcoming second round of casting decisions have The Counselor set to become an even more studded-with-stars affair. The Playlist has picked up a report from Twitch stating that three huge names are currently in talks to help Fassbender fill out the cast: Jeremy Renner, Javier Bardem, and Natalie Portman.
