Fisherman's Wharf
Fisherman's Wharf : Michelin's recommendations
San Francisco's vibrant and colorful maritime legacy survives in this bustling and extremely popular district on the northeastern tip of the peninsula. A carnival atmosphere prevails on the rowdier east end of the wharf, especially at the Pier 39 Festival Marketplace, where there's a pod of vociferous and amusing sea lions, scores of souvenir shops, an aquarium with an underwater tunnel, and rides for kids. Street performers and sidewalk seafood stands add to the chaos along Jefferson Street, where you'll find two novelty museums and many T-shirt shops. Extending into the bay are a number of piers from which you can get a boat to take you to Alcatraz or cruise the bay; the large seafood restaurants here are named after some of the Italian families that dominated the fishing industry here generations ago. The quieter western end of the wharf has historic sailing ships, a maritime museum, some art galleries, a relaxing park and two popular shopping centers housed in historic old factories, The Cannery and Ghirardelli Square. This is also where the turnaround is for the Powell-Hyde cable car line.

Mindfulness Appen
Vill du hitta mer närvaro i vardagens stressiga tillvaro men tycker att meditation verkar svårt? Då kanske Mindfulness Appen är något för dig.
Mindfulness Appen är ett verktyg för att bli mer närvarande i livet. Den hjälper dig med det som är allra svårast i mindfulnessutövandet - nämligen att komma ihåg att vara mindful.
"Jag har gått kurs i Mindfulness och jag har provat många guidningar på tex CD. Det här är Klockrent! Bra röst, bra funktioner och det verkligen funkar som Mindfulness är tänkt. Använder den nästan dagligen."
"Enkel, tydlig, snygg, behaglig röst och flexibel. Det här kan verkligen bli det som hjälper mig att meditera regelbundet!"
"Fin design, enkel o behaglig. Fantastiskt verktyg för både nybörjare och redan praktiserande. Den här borde alla ha i sin ficka. En riktigt bra present"
"Snygg design, behagfull app och så rätt i tiden!"
"Äntligen en bra meditations App på svenska!"
Genom att ställa in påminnelser på de tider och dagar du vill kan du få meddelande om när det är dags att meditera (ungefär som Skalmans mat- och sovklocka).
• Du kan välja om du vill sitta en kortare eller längre stund.
• Du kan bli guidad med röst eller bara sitta i tystnad med klockor som slår vid olika intervaller.
• Du kan även ställa in en anpassad meditation precis så lång som du önskar.
• Slutligen går det att ställa in "Mindfulness Notiser" vid valda tidpunkter som kan hjälpa dig att öka din närvaro i stunden
Genom Mindfulness Appen kan du helt enkelt "ringa upp" dig själv då och då för att kolla om du verkligen är hemma.
Förutom de förinställda påminnelserna går det givetvis att sätta igång en meditation genom att helt enkelt starta appen, och välja den meditation du vill lyssna på - tex om du har en stund över på bussen, på arbetet, i en kö eller bara vill sitta ner en stund.
Alla utförda meditationer sparas i statistikdelen så att du har möjlighet att följa hur din meditationsutövning utvecklas över tid.
Mindfulness Appen innehåller:
4 Guidade meditationer: 3, 5, 15 och 30 minuter
4 Tysta meditationer med klockor: 3, 5, 15 och 30 minuter
1 Guidad kroppsscanning
Möjlighet att ställa in en anpassad meditation med eller utan guidad början
Mindfulness notiser
Påminnelsefunktion baserad på tid
Mindfulness Appen är till för alla som vill bli mer närvarande i livet, både nybörjare och mer erfarna utövare. Vi hoppas att den kommer att förgylla din vardag och göra ditt liv mera intressant att leva!

A 2009 article in Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet by Donald Boström speculated that the IDF had "plundered" Palestinians' bodies for organs. Now, the Swedish magazine, Filter, is saying that Boström was right all along.
A 21-year-old man who founded the group "Young Muslims Against Antisemitism", in Malmo, Sweden, has received an anti-racism award from the Swedish Committee Against Antisemitism.
One of those battles is in Malmo, the Swedish city now notorious across Europe for its attitude to Jews, and for its Mayor's apparent insouciance - to put it no stronger - towards attacks on Jews.
"You don't wear a kippah in this city. That would be suicide," said the head of Malmo's voluntary security team guarding the gates of the city's Jewish cemetery.
The security service was established in the wake of a peace demonstration by the Jewish community after the 2008-2009 Gaza war in which the crowd was firebombed and a Holocaust survivor assaulted.
Around 400 people participated in a "kippah march" in Malmö, Sweden, on Saturday to protest against antisemitism.
Sweden's minister for European affairs, Birgitta Ohlsson, was among the participants. She said that the march represented a "refusal to be indifferent to antisemitism, prejudices and intolerance".
Representatives of the Swedish Jewish community last week took part in a memorial ceremony marking the anniversary of the "Night of the Gypsies", or Zigeunernacht. Between August 2 and 3, 1944, around 3,000 Roma were sent to their deaths in Auschwitz.
A project that gives ordinary people control of a Twitter account representing Sweden has erupted in controversy after this week's curator let loose a stream of posts that could be seen as offensive to Jews.
Sonja "Hitler" Abrahamsson, as she refers to herself, was put in charge of the @Sweden account on Monday in the latest stage of the Swedish Institute's Curators of Sweden project.
Long-lost family of a German-Jewish refugee who died alone in his Maida Vale flat will gather on Sunday for the stone-setting.

Hannah Rosenthal, Barack Obama's special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, has travelled to Malmö, Sweden, for a closed-doors meeting with the city's mayor who has been accused of fomenting hatred of Jews.
Ilmar Reepalu recently told Swedish magazine Neo that the far-right Sweden Democrat party has "infiltrated the Jewish community in order to push its hatred of Muslims".
The Swedish public television broadcaster SVT has stoked controversy by hiring a blogger with a history of making extreme anti-Israeli remarks.

"THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU, Meals to Heal!!! As a charity foundation, that helps single parents battling cancer by providing assistance with daily living activities, such as daily meals, rides to doctor appointments, laundry and household cleaning services, we were very choosy in who we wanted for our meal service. Our service area covers the SF Bay Area and the Sacramento region, so we needed a company that would provide a consistent meal service plan. We were absolutely thrilled when we found Meals to Heal and were extremely impressed with the philosophy behind their program, not only for the cancer patient, but for the caregivers as well. Susan, Angela, and Jessica have made it so easy for us to set up our program for our recipients and are always available for support at a moment's notice. Fantastic customer service! Meals to Heal offers meal plans that are optimally designed for the best nutrition that takes into account the cancer patient's sensitivity to eating due to the chemo treatments. Our first foundation recipient under the Meals to Heal program has had nothing but rave reviews about the quality and taste of the food in which she says is superb.

HoopsHype Bill Russell rumors
The design for a statue of Boston Celtics great Bill Russell has been unveiled. The statue scheduled to be placed on City Hall Plaza next year will feature Russell in uniform with his arm around a youth, reflecting his dedication to mentoring youngsters. Oklahoman
Where is the most room for improvement in your game? Basically, I need to shoot the ball at a more consistent rate and get stronger. Who do you most like to be compared to? Nerlens Noel: I like the comparison to Bill Russell. He was a great legend of the game. And he won multiple championships in Boston, and that's where I'm from. So, that comparison means a lot to me. USA Basketball
The 50th anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game is not only an occasion to remember the accomplishment, but also the man. What better way to reflect on Chamberlain's signature moment than through the eyes of his friend and most bitter rival? So I called Bill Russell, the 11-time champion of the Celtics, and asked if he'd be so kind as to share his thoughts about the occasion 50 years ago Friday. I'll provide his response, followed by the context. The response from Russell: "Not really." "Is it a bad time, or is it a topic you don't really want to talk about?" "A little of both," he said. And that was that. I apologized for the intrusion and wished Russell the best. "No intrusion," Russell said. "And thank you." CBSSports.com
I shared the conversation with Sy Goldberg, Chamberlain's longtime friend and attorney. On the phone from Los Angeles, Goldberg was neither surprised nor particularly offended by Russell's reaction. "There was a love-hate relationship between these two guys," Goldberg said. Let it be noted that Russell, who turned 78 last month, harbors no grudges or animosity toward Chamberlain – nothing different than they ever did, anyway. Goldberg said in the old days, the NBA used to schedule the Sixers and Celtics on Thanksgiving Day, and when the game was in Philadelphia, Russell was a guest at casa de Chamberlain for Thanksgiving dinner. "Russell was there all the time," Goldberg said. "They were close friends." CBSSports.com

Miami All-Star forward Chris Bosh surveyed the banners at USF's Memorial Gym where the Heat had a shoot-around Tuesday and stopped at the one that represented Bill Russell. Russell played at USF from 1953-56 before leading the Boston Celtics to 11 NBA championships. Last year, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, one of the highest civilian awards in the United States. San Francisco Chronicle
Considering Bill Sharman is 85, and two stars from that team (Wilt Chamberlain, Happy Hairston) are deceased, while two others (LeRoy Ellis, Flynn Robinson) are battling cancer — and taking into account the team's impressive imprint — you would think David Stern would have headed lickety-split to the appropriate location and personally unlocked the league's film archives. Every living player on the team was interviewed, Joyce Sharman said. Many others, such as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (whose Bucks squad convincingly shattered the streak on national TV on a Sunday afternoon), Bill Russell and Phil Jackson, also provided insight. Lakers players figured 33 games without a loss would earn them some type of reward from infamously frugal owner Jack Kent Cooke, maybe a Hawaiian vacation or a monetary gratitude for a job spectacularly done. New York Post
Hall of Famer Bill Russell said a solution to the NBA lockout is being jeopardized by hard-liners on both sides, and urged the parties to put aside their differences and reach a compromise "they can live with." "As a very interested bystander, I just hope they get a deal," Russell told CBSSports.com in a phone interview. "And it will not come from the hard-liners on either side. I think they all know that. I have this theory that hard-liners are like true believers. And true believers think that any compromise is a retreat. And moving forward, that doesn't cut it." CBSSports.com
Russell's words carry weight – and not just because he is the most decorated champion in NBA history. The former Celtics' star was among a group of 20 All-Stars who threatened to boycott the 1964 All-Star Game in Boston unless the NBA recognized the newly formed players' union. "Basically I was one of those guys that helped get the players' association started," Russell said. "And they've done wonderful things. I knew David Stern before he was commissioner, when he was associate attorney for the NBA. And if I remember correctly, he said, 'I do not consider the players' association my adversaries. They're my business partners.' "That's where, a lot of the things that David has done -- and I've known him up close -- have been beneficial for both sides," Russell said. CBSSports.com
"Easy" Ed Macauley was at the center of one of the most important trades in NBA history: He was the key man sent from Boston to the St. Louis Hawks in exchange for just-drafted Bill Russell. Of course, Russell and Red Auerbach's Celtics now seem fated for one another, forever linked by their 11 championships, but Big Russ might never have landed in Boston had Easy Ed just said no. Celtics owner Walter Brown actually asked the 6-8, 190-pound center—an All-Star in each of his six seasons in Boston and the MVP of the very first ASG—for permission to ship him to St. Louis. Ed was happy to return to his hometown, so Hawks GM Marty Blake (yes, that Marty Blake) agreed to take Russell with the second pick in the '56 Draft and ship him to Boston in exchange for second-year pro Macauley and Cliff Hagan, the former Kentucky star returning from a military stint. SLAM
Younger fans, who have watched the Knicks excel only at ticket prices, front-office chaos and the decibel level of the Garden's public-address system, may find the idea of the Knicks as the embodiment of intelligent, disciplined, unselfish play ludicrous. They would be well advised to pick up Harvey Araton's "When the Garden Was Eden." It will give them a clear picture of what made the Knicks so endearing, as well as a taste of how overwrought that affection could become. The Knicks, after all, never came close to the dynastic record of the Red Auerbach-Bill Russell Boston Celtics, or Phil Jackson's Chicago Bulls, or his Lakers. Why, then, would accomplished adults like Woody Allen sneak away from a dinner party for a glimpse of a Knicks game (a moment captured in "Annie Hall")? Why would the advertising legend George Lois spend every game under the basket, screaming obscenities at the refs? New York Times
William "Bill" Russell, former star center for the National Basketball Association's Boston Celtics, accused the National Collegiate Athletic Association of using his likeness from his college playing days without paying him or seeking his consent. The complaint is the latest to claim the NCAA violates federal antitrust laws by keeping former student basketball and football athletes from receiving compensation for the commercial use of their images and likenesses. The association has denied wrongdoing in those cases. Electronic Arts Inc., the second-largest U.S. video-game maker, is also named as a defendant in the lawsuit, filed yesterday in federal court in Oakland, California. Russell accuses it of using his image in a "Tournament of Legends" feature on an NCAA basketball video game. BusinessWeek.com
City Hall Plaza will serve as home to the Bill Russell statue, Mayor Thomas M. Menino and Boston Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca announced Monday in a brief ceremony on the expected location on the south side near State Street. While considering a handful of locations during the selection process, a site visit to City Hall Plaza with Russell confirmed to the legacy committee that it was the ideal spot. "The mayor brought Bill here and, when they came to look at the site, literally hundreds of kids surrounded him and were taking pictures," said Pagliuca. "It was as if he was a live statue here. It's going to be very exciting." ESPN.com
A site has been chosen for the statue of Boston Celtics legend Bill Russell and the location will be announced today by Mayor Thomas M. Menino, a team spokeswoman said yesterday. The mayor will be joined by Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca and members of the Bill Russell Legacy Project Committee in detailing plans for a tribute to the NBA Hall of Famer. In February, President Obama presented Russell, who won 11 NBA titles with the Celtics as a player and a coach, with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in honor of his civil rights advocacy. Boston Globe
At that, Hall of Fame guard Oscar Robertson, who may have been every bit as good as Jordan in his day, just rolls his eyes and shakes his head. "I didn't hear the comments," Robertson told the Dan Sileo Show on WDAE in Tampa Wednesday morning. "Let me tell you about what being great is. Ever hear of Elgin Baylor? Never mention his name, do we? Great basketball player. You know what you have today? Michael Jordan was a great player, but he won after Chicago got Pippen, Grant and those other players to go along with him, because for a while they couldn't beat Detroit. "Everybody looks at what you've done. Sure he won six championships, Russell won eleven. There are other players on these teams when they play. They don't play by themselves. Michael Jordan is a great player. Was he the greatest? Ask Kobe that. Ask Bill Russell. Ask Oscar Robertson. Ask Wilt Chamberlain. Ask Elgin Baylor, Jerry West, ask those guys." Sporting News
NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar calls in Chicago Tribune Live to discuss the recent debate: Who is basketball's greatest player ever? "I think the greatest player of all time was Bill Russell because he led his team to 11 NBA championships including eight in a row. That's an awesome feat. He didn't do at the offensive end, he did it at the defensive end. But he was the key ingredient in their dominance. I think he deserves the accolade of being the greatest player to ever play the game." CSN Chicago
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: Bill Russell is getting his statue after 40 years. Laker immortal Jerry West waited 37 years for his statue. My wait has only been 22 yrs. Twitter

Kitchen Lighting Layout Help
Hi Everyone,
We are in the middle of a kitchen remodel and I need your help with the lighting.
Below are a few images of the proposed cabinet layout (the pantry next to the oven is actually where the refrigerator will go and we will not have a wine rack on the back wall). It isn't the final plan, but it should give you a good idea of the layout.
I am considering using 5" recessed cans and using 1 or 2 flush or semi-flush ceiling fixtures in the kitchen, and some sort of light above the sink too.
I have put together some designs. Please let me know if they work and which ones you like the best. Also let me know if you have any suggestions or if you think the flushmount/semiflush would not work in my kitchen.
Keep in mind that I will have under cabinet lighting too.
I would put two pendants flanking the sink. This is to provide cross-illumination and prevent a glare bomb effect there. I wouldn't put a can light over the fridge. If it were me, I would put the 2 flush or semi-flush mounted ceiling lights. But that's personal. You might be fine with just one.

Film Review
Cloud Atlas
Time-hopping sci-fi tale soars—but how high?
By Devin D. O'Leary
Among the books often labeled unfilmable is David Mitchell's 2004 sci-fi hexaptych Cloud Atlas. Somebody finally decided to wrestle that tiger, though, and the results are structurally (if not always emotionally) miraculous—a $100 million genre-hopping art house blockbuster in search of a sympathetic audience.
Reel World
By Devin D. O'Leary
Louie's Rock-N-Reels, Albuquerque's longtime purveyor of awesome movie memorabilia, suffered a break-in late last month. Owner Louie Torres says several of his most prized items disappeared during the burglary. This is lousy news and not just because it takes money from the pockets of a hardworking local businessman. It also deprives Albuquerque's movie fans of the opportunity to purchase their own piece of movie history.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Millie Flamm was too sick to attend Justin Bieber's concert in Salt Lake City, but she got the next best thing: a visit from the pop star in her hospital room.
RELATED: Did Justin and Selena split again?
Bieber showed up in the 7-year-old leukemia patient's room at Primary Children's Medical Center before his concert.
RELATED: Bieber trying to be 'better person' after marijuana scandal
Her mother, Amanda Flamm, told the Deseret News that Millie's "whole face just lit up" when Bieber walked into the room and gave her a big hug.

La Jolla Casita
Casita was for the most part as described
Location is great
Walking distance to La Jolla Village with several amenities(dining,shopping)
This location unfortunately is very noisy as it is on the corner of a very busy street
There is traffic at all hours of day and early morning which makes it to difficult to get a restful sleep(whether in living area or bedroom)
Living area was clean and nicely decorated
Found the layout of the kitchen and bathroom which is located off the bedroom to be awkward and not overly practical
Kitchen and bathroom are both quite dated and it would be nice to see a little money invested back into these areas to modernize and provide a facelift
We had very little water pressure for bathing during our stay and the there was not a lot of hot water
Once again a few dollars spent on the bathroom would make a huge difference
Deck is very nice(need to be careful however if you have children) though we were not able to get deck heater working
Some minor repair work on windows, electrical outlets and door/gate locks would also be welcome
For those looking to be within walking distance of La Jolla this is a great location although there are definitely some drawbacks to the property
We probably would not rent Casita again
A note to future guests: we have a $300 deposit which we refund fully 99% of the time. Occasionally, when the property is not left in the same condition that it was when guests arrived we have to charge a nominal fee to restore the Casita to same condition it was in when guest arrived. It is very rare that we withhold a portion of a deposit but because we seek to provide many additional amenities such as beach chairs, beach umbrellas, coolers, propane heater for the deck, etc...it is occasionally necessary to withhold a portion of a guests deposit to repair or replace items that have been lost or broken so we can provide the same experience for future guest.
Regarding a few of the items mentioned in the review:
The water pressure is fine, it may be less during early morning (6 am) when the irrigation system is running every other day.
The Casita has a full size water heater located inside the Casita that is used to exclusively heat the water used in the Casita which provides plenty of hot water.
The propane heater on the deck works fine, there are operating instructions listed on the front of the heater. Please feel free to contact us should you have any difficulties understanding or operating any of the items provided to make your stay a wonderful experience.
The deck is very safe when guests provide proper adult supervision for their children.
The Village of La Jolla is a very popular place and with that there is some urban noise during business hours. We are very interested in providing a wonderful experience for our guests, if you are highly sensitive to noise during the day this may not be the proper rental. If you like to be walking distance to the beach, restaurants, shopping, museums, night life, art galleries, etc.. then this is an ideal rental at a great value.
Thank you,
Eric and Yvonne
Spanish Casita in LaJolla
Great Experience
The only two potential downsides of this rental:
1. The bathroom's not too updated (and it's carpeted--that took a bit of adjusting); and
2. If you're highly sensitive to light/noise, it's next to a pretty large street and may make it a little difficult to sleep.
Regardless, Yvonne and Eric are great and highly responsive, making my vacation a breeze! I got my deposit back before even leaving San Diego that day. :)
The Village of La Jolla is a very active location with restaurant, shopping, beaches, nightlife, art galleries, museums, special events, etc... and due to the popularity there can be a bit of noise during the day time hours.
For those that need a dark space to sleep, we have black out blinds on every window behind the bamboo shades.
Glad to hear you had a wonderful visit to La Jolla.
Thanks again,
Eric and Yvonne
A sweet spot in La Jolla
Eric and Yvonne
We loved it!
If you haven't been to La Jolla, rent this place and checkout all the murals of La Jolla, tide pools, Contemporary Museum of Arts, kayaking and lots of great local food and shops. Drive a few miles and see downtown San Diego, USS Midway, the Aquarium, more museums...an endless list of fun.
Eric and Yvonne are awesome, very friendly, and we really appreciated the almost instant return of our deposit. The rental was well kept and had many thoughtful touches added for our comfort. Coffee, tea, dishes, bathroom supplies, etc. There were plenty of items for beach fun: Ice chests, radios, beach towels. They are the perfect hosts!
The only con we would list would be the traffic getting in and out of the driveway. This can't really be changed by the owners and we dealt with it just fine but it is on a corner and seems the locals are in too much of a hurry to give you any courtesy. We brought our bikes and either rode or walked most of the trip, but backing out of the driveway the times we did leave was annoying. I wouldn't let this hinder us coming here again since all the positives outweigh that minor inconvenience. Also something that is probably the cities responsibility, not the owners, is the steep peak on the driveway entrance. If that was leveled out it would make it much easier getting in and out with traffic. Again, these probably aren't something the owners have any control over.
Overall, this place was amazing and we will definitely be renting here again! Thanks for a very memorable trip.
We certainly understand that it may be challenging for some to back out of the driveway, the best thing to do is to wait until the traffic light turns red which will allow ample time to make your exit. There also is parallel parking on the street which is usually available after 5 pm and is easy in and out. Give it a try on your next visit, we hope to see you again soon.
Thank you,
Eric and Yvonne

Recycle A Necktie-Sweet Angel
I posted this on Trash to Treasure,too!
Here is something that was posted about a year ago, and I searched for it but couldn't find the post. Let me know who posted it :D I finally got around to making some. I tried the wide end and the narrow end of the tie. Both are cute! I made them with what I had on hand, I think ya'll can do better with the wooden head! LOL
Photos and link on my blog!
Darn!!......I've got to get used to having a blog, and adding the link *blush* So sorry about that, ya'll!
Here is a link that might be useful: Kudzu's Blog
Thanks Oddie :D I remember when the thrift stores would GIVE you the ties for free! But these days everyone is so crafty and really, not many people wear ties anymore. I see some every now and then on ShopGoodwill.com, but kinda expensive if you ask me. I may have to just break down and spend the money for some. I found a site the other day that mentioned a blog that is all about recycling ties.....just ties! Wow, I saw some things I wanna make. A really cool lampshade, wallets, business card holders,purses,skirts,dresses.........
gosh who new there was so many ideas for ties, and why us crafters dont throw anything out! my dmil doesnt even give me a strange look anymore when I ask for something she would throw out, she just says yes you can have it.
TFS all you do, you sure keep this fourm rocking!
happy crafting

Build Log
Pitts Python - New plane from RCfoam.
I enjoyed working with Paul Blymyer of Rcfoam on the Ligeti Startos. When Paul said he was working on a Pitts Python to kit in the very near future, I quickly volunteered to build another one of his designs that is soon to be available.
The Pitts is a full fuselage foamy. Unlike flat foamies, this is a much stronger construction method which also gives you a place to hide the radio equipment. By sacrificing a slight amount of weight compared to a flat design, it gives the build/pilot a tough plane that can withstand more abuse than could be expected. Between Paul and myself, we talked about a few minor changes but overall this has turned out to be a pretty sweet build. It goes together fairly fast but with the performance the plane is capable of, I would not recommend it to a beginner.
I am well along in the build and will add photos over the next few days of mine. as well as photos Paul has taken of his build. I have not committed aviation with mine yet but a couple of prototypes have flown so I do not foresee any flight issues. As I get things together I will update with specs and video in the near future.
|Aug 14, 2010, 03:30 AM
I'm going to show the highlights of the build as this plane is not for a beginner. The construction is pretty easy but you may want to have a foamy or two under your belt.
I started construction by epoxying the spars into the wings. It's pretty standard for a foamy and presented no issues. 5 minute epoxy was used.
|Aug 14, 2010, 03:35 AM
View of finished spars in the wing as well as the stab and struts.
|Aug 14, 2010, 08:51 AM
That is an amazing airplane! I look forward to hearing to about the flight characteristics!
|Aug 14, 2010, 10:43 AM
Hi eliworm, the foam looks like EPP, correct? Thanks.
|Aug 14, 2010, 01:34 PM
|Aug 14, 2010, 01:49 PM
Here is the start of the fuselage construction. Straight forward and has not given any surprises.
|Aug 14, 2010, 02:10 PM
In these photos I show some of Paul's build with mine as his photos show some real good detail.
One thing about cnc router cutting is the holes and slots are slightly rounded in the corners due to the fact that a router bit is round. At first I was thinking I will have to sand all the corners square. I then decided to leave them as is and just insert the parts as I go with out sanding. This has proven to work great as there is enough give in the foam to not have to even worry about it. My recommendation is to save yourself a step and press on as it hasn't been an issue.
|Aug 15, 2010, 01:12 PM
I had the pleasure of stopping by RCfoam two weeks ago and was able to see one of the prototype fuselages for the Pitts. It is truly an impressive plane. I look forward to seeing some flight video.
|Aug 19, 2010, 03:23 AM
OK, I have made some good progress on the Pitts so I want to get caught up on some photos. I realized I did not take any good photos joining the two fuselage half's together but it's pretty straight forward and the photos here give you a good idea of the assembly.
|Aug 19, 2010, 03:30 AM
Here are a few minor details showing the skin installation.
|Aug 20, 2010, 01:19 PM
OK, I got the Pitts ready and test flown. I still need to take care of some detail work like the hatch hold downs and get some color. The rest of the construction was pretty easy with everything standard as far as the radio goes. Here are some photos from this morning before the test flight.
|Aug 20, 2010, 01:41 PM
Flying the test flight.
Test flight went great except for one thing. Right after getting in the air my wheel came off. I knew I should have put loc-tight on the threads. I cannot believe how effective the rudder is on this thing. Great authority, I think I will add a bit more expo there. Rolls are very axel and fast. I have all the aileron I can get with 70% expo.
I can hover but I am not a pro. I had no trouble hovering this plane. It would easily snap and lock into a hover. Hmmm, can't wait to play with that more in the future.
I made a few approaches for landing knowing I had to pull off a Bob Hoover style landing without the wheel. She slows nice and I got her down with no damage although I did end up on the nose.
Specs fro the test flight'
Emax motor 2215/25 with 10x4-7 pulling 175 watts.
Scorpion 25 amp ESC.
Emax servos 9gram.
Battery G3 1300 3 cell.
Weight without battery 12.6oz
|Oct 15, 2010, 07:10 PM
I finally have some color on her. My wife and daughter did the work for me there. I hope to get a video soon.

College News
Accounting Students Win Regional Tax Competition
A team of St. John Fisher College Accounting students won first place in the Northeast Region Deloitte FanTAXtic Competition. The competition took place in Boston November 1-3, and the students were accompanied by Professor Lynn Mucenski-Keck.
The annual competition, which takes place in 16 cities across the country, encourages student teams to utilize their growing knowledge and skills to solve real-world, issues-based business tax scenarios. Participants engaged in simulation exercises, role-played with Deloitte tax professionals, and made a presentation to a panel of live and "virtual" judges. Fisher competed against Boston College, Boston University, Bentley University, Northeastern University, and Syracuse University.
The winning team included Jason Wilson (MBA), Maria Siler '14, Brendan Kazmierski '14, Mike Roman '16, and Marissa Budwey '16. The team will move on to the national round of the competition, scheduled to take place January 17-19, 2014, at Deloitte University, a state-of-the-art learning and leadership development center in Texas. They will compete for over $50,000 in individual scholarships and institutional awards.
Fisher's second competing team included Jenny Beacham (MBA), Kyle Ingalls '14, Jacquie Cowley '14, Tom Kline '16, and Hannah Martella '16.
"The level of technical research, professionalism, and teamwork that the students showed make me very proud to be their faculty mentor. I am so fortunate to have had such a wonderful experience," said Mucenski-Keck.
Teams placing in the top 10 with Fisher came from Brigham Young University, Fordham University, North Carolina State University, University of Northern Colorado, University of Southern California, Texas A&M University, College of William & Mary, and the University of Wisconsin – Madison.
