In Focus: Failsworth Hats
Monday, 23rd Sep 2013
We are pleased to introduce a new and on-going project with established British headwear manufacturers, Failsworth Hats.
Exploring both the company's extensive archive and expertise, we have recreated a series of authentic styles personalised with Fred Perry details.
Failsworth Hats was founded in Failsworth (north Manchester) in 1903. The regions links to hat making stretch right back to the 15th century, when local farmers would craft hats to supplement their income; the onset of the Industrial Revolution during the 18th and 19th centuries saw this small cottage industry in the north-west of England grow to be the global centre of hat production. And to this day the company manage the design and production from their Failsworth base.
'back in the day(1920s) you wouldn't walk down the street without a hat on for fear of being the odd one out, a man never left the house without a hat, regardless of his class' Eric, Manchester
There was a period of time that hats were viewed as essential, like a pair of shoes or a coat, it wasn't until late 1950s when people started taking a much more casual approach to dress that the popularity of headwear began to dwindle. Hats were dropped by the mainstream and became statement style for the minority.
The Pork Pie aptly named so due to its resemblance to a Pork Pie dish, was originally designed as military hat and became popular amongst jazz and blues musicians of the 1930s, 40 and 50s. It first exploded onto the UK streetwear scene in the 1960s courtesy of sharply dressed Jamaican Rudeboys, who would finish their slim suits and loafers off with a Pork Pie. This look was a significant influence at the time, and the hat grew to be synonymous with the British ska revival scene. The iconic 2Tone records emblem famously featured the 'Walt Jasco' figure dancing (skanking) whilst donning a Pork Pie.
The narrow brimmed Trilby with its distinguished tilt to the front is perhaps one of the most iconic hat shapes of the last century. Named after the of George de Maurier's novel 'Trilby' where it first appeared, it was glamorised and promoted by the stars of Hollywood throughout the 1920s,30s and 40s, revered by actors and musicians alike, from Humphrey Bogart to Sammy Davies Jnr. Alongside the Pork Pie, the shape was popular with mid 60's, R&B loving London mods, who would team the hat with sharp suits and slim fit Perry shirts.
This season's hats produced in winter twill fabrics according to a 1930s archive styles have been finished with a diamond print lining in port and white. A top finishing touch to keep any outfit looking sharp.

Let's take a quick survey. By a show of hands, who out there is a fan of the small-block Chevy? I see every hand in the house up. OK, maybe that was an easy one. Survey question number two. Who is a big fan of the Gen-III LS1 motors? While most hands remain in the air, there are still a lot of holdouts who prefer the original small-block, and for good reason. It was, after all, the engine that all but revolutionized the industry. Any one out there know how many race winners have been powered by small-block, Chevys over the years? Given their proliferation in all forms of motorsports, it would likely take a lifetime just to gather all the data, but suffice to say it is a lot. Whether the modern motor will ever be able to eclipse the original in this category is irrelevant, but that doesn't mean it should be dismissed, as the LS1 and Gen-IV LS2 and LS3 families have a great deal to offer.
While the original 23-degree small-block has a great deal to offer, just imagine the power offered by a set of 18-degree race heads. Now take that one step further, and you have the 15-degree valve angle offered by the factory LS1/LS2 heads. While the aftermarket is full of performance headgear for the original 23-degree motors, you can literally port your factory LS1 or LS2 heads and have all the flow of some of the very best aftermarket heads for your original small-block.
The gains don't stop with high-flowing aluminum cylinder heads, as modern motors also sport a factory aluminum block. Imagine how cool you'd be running around with an all-aluminum block. These days, all you have to do is yank a modern Mouse from a late-model Camaro sitting in a wrecking yard, and you have that all-aluminum small-block you've always wanted. Now toss in a quick cam change, an ultra-lightweight composite intake, and the ability (in injected form) to knock down over 25 miles per gallon, and you have the makings of a serious powerplant.
What's that you say, you don't want to trade your simple and reliable carburetor for the complexities of fuel injection? No problem, as the aftermarket has come to the rescue in the form of not only carbureted intakes for the modern fuelie motors, but also the necessary electronics that provide a simple solution to the ignition dilemma. In fact, the ignition conversion on the Gen-III motor is arguably easier to install and program than a conventional distributor. Leave it to MSD and Edelbrock to provide a direct plug-n-play system to allow the use of a carbureted intake on the LS1.
Using the Edelbrock/MSD Timing Control Module, we were able to run one of five different ignition curves, though they now offer a completely programmable system to allow the user to dial in the desired ignition timing at all map points. What we liked most about the system was its ease of installation, as the Timing Control Module came with a wiring harness that plugged directly into the factory LS1 coil packs, cam, and crank position sensors. This plug-and-play system is actually easier than the weights and springs associated with recurving a conventional distributor.
Having a carbureted Gen-III engine is reason enough for many enthusiasts to celebrate, but we here at Super Chevy would never stop at a simple carbureted conversion. Since we planned on having our thoroughly modern Mouse on the dyno, we decided to run a few tests on the carbureted beast. Before getting to the testing, one thoroughly modern test motor was in order.
Single vs. Dual Plane-6.0L LS1
Since we ran the 6.0L LS1 in carbureted form, we decided to run the time-honored test of single vs. dual-plane intakes. In the single-plane corner was the GMPP intake, while Edelbrock supplied a Performer RPM dual-plane intake. As we have come to expect, the single-plane intake made the most peak power, but the dual-plane produced exceptional torque. Down at 3,200 rpm, the dual-plane intake offered an extra 44 lbs-ft of torque. The single-plane took over from 4,800 rpm on up, bettering the dual-plane by 10- to 12-hp. The decision comes down to where you want your power. For most street applications, the extra 44 lbs-ft will be much more beneficial than the extra 10-12 hp at the top of the rev range. For those looking to maximize power production, the single-plane puts up the big peak number.

A week ago, you read the other side of the same question. Now, an anonymous reader writes "I have been with my company for 10+ years and have seen many development cycles on our projects. We have a developer intern who has not been on the team for very long. On day one he started ripping into my code on how terrible it is. We have a code base of roughly 50,000 lines of code. When he comes to me with a complaint about the code it is simply because he does not have the experience with it to actually understand what the code is doing. He is a smart guy with lots of promise, he is asking good questions, but how do I get him to look past his own self perceived greatness enough to slow down and learn what we are doing and how we have pulled it off?"

Hey! Come to Barcelona and enjoy the most magical day for children! You will enjoy the cavalcade of the three kings ( 5th January in the afternoon ) from the east! If you've been good guy, you will have a present!
In Spain, the most important day of the year for children is the arrival of the Three Kings from the East. Baltazar, Melchior and Gasper go to Bethlehem to be introduced to Jesus recently born and offer him precious presents.
This day is celebrated the 6th of January and unlike most of others countries, spanish children received their presents this day and not during Christmas day. Indeed, Santa Claus is considered as a very commercial character, the Three Kings are more authentic as they are related to the Bible.
The Cavalcade is a pageant of colour and music where the excited populace gets the chance to see in the flesh the magic beings who will later bring gifts to every home –unless someone has been wicked of course, in which case the culprit only gets a piece of coal… As the Kings ride their exotic carriages through the city streets their pageboys throw sweets to the crowd –18 tons of them this year! If you still use a dummy and want a sweetie, you'll have to swap it, I'm afraid. There are 6 carriages of pageboys with strict instructions to only give sweets in exchange for any dummies in evidence.
The Kings parade is a spectacular show designed and performed by professional artists from the world of theater, music, dance and circus alongside many volunteers, which are mostly students from 29 different arts schools in Barcelona. In total there are about 1200 costumed participants, eleven floats and 26 dance retinues called comparsas.

Mitie Group Sellafield jobs under threat
Last updated at 13:27, Thursday, 03 May 2012
JOBS are under threat at Sellafield in a company which recently won a £200 million contract on the nuclear site.
The shock comes six months since the Mitie Group was awarded a facilities management contract to provide cleaning, maintenance and security services.
But yesterday – six months after winning the lucrative contract – it was revealed that the company plans to issue 'early warning' notices of redundancies to Sellafield staff.
GMB regional union organiser Steve Gibbons said the dispute was settled amicably.
He said: "It basically says that Mitie are restructuring and there are possible redundancies.
"We will be entering into consultations and if any jobs are to be lost we will try to keep them to a minimum as we have managed to do in the past."
Sellafield Ltd is aware that Mitie plans to issue the early warning notices.
Mitie has about 500 on its Sellafield payroll but has not indicated how many jobs are at risk.
The shock comes only a week or two since GMB and Mitie settled "amicably" a Sellafield pay dispute.
While Mitie is the employer, Mr Gibbons is critical about the role of site operators Sellafield Ltd who awarded the contract.
He declared: "The drive on this appears to be coming from Sellafield Ltd who are looking to get value for money from contracts but some might call it getting some things done on the cheap.
"To be fair when there have been redundancies in the past we have done our best to mitigate them and hopefully we can do the same again but if not there is bound to be an outcry from the community if a lot more jobs are lost."
The big facilities management contract was awarded last October.
But Mr Gibbons said: "The actual details of what Sellafield want Mitie to deliver has only been known in the last couple of months so in the circumstances I have some sympathy with them."
Employment issues surrounding the award of Sellafield contracts raised at Tuesday's meeting of the West Cumbria Group Stakeholders meeting in Cleator Moor.
As a result of the concerns, Sellafield Ltd's managing director, Todd Wright, has been asked to prove information about jobs that might be lost or created in the letting of contracts.
Sellafield Ltd said yesterday: "Mitie Ltd has been awarded a contract to provide facilities management services for the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority estate. They have been successful in other contract awards for Sellafield Ltd.
"In delivering work for the nuclear estate contractors are expected to deliver best value for money. How they achieve this is part of the professional service they provide.
"The notice sent out to staff has been sent from their employer, not Sellafield Ltd, but it should be noted that early warning redundancy notices is part of a legal process and does not necessarily mean redundancy will follow. We are encouraging Mitie to use mitigation such as redeployment wherever possible."

Have your say
John the term contractor should tell you they're NOT in charge of the sites security. Cofactors employ local people so regardless of who it is, it's still local jobs being lost! As for pen pushers, they're needed to try and work out how to operate the site, which keeps jobs! A lot of biter people comment negatively about the site, but they love the good wage they take home each month!
How do Mitie Group get all the contracts on Sellafield site ? who ownes Mitie Group ?
who were the other contractiors in for the contracts ?? its time we all found out ..

Plus, this atmosphere is way different. The Ravens were in cold and windy environment, when this game was being played inside a dome. Big difference when it comes to kicking field goals. I wouldn't be surprised if the Giants even worked on those chip shot field goals even more this past week, after seeing Billy miss it. You have to have confidence in your players.
There's nothing wrong with scoring when you can, I guess it comes down to a coaching style. I wouldn't say one move is dumber then the other, but if Tom Brady would have been able to pull that drive off and get into the endzone, it would have been very bad for Bradshaw.

"I ran out of time to get a Christmas card put together, but I knew I wanted to send a New Year's card in its place. Found the perfect card with just the right printed text and it was great to have lots of options on adding photos. Icing on the cake was how quickly the order arrived.....much faster than I thought. Thank you, Tiny Prints!!"
"It was my very first order on Tiny Prints, based on a friend's referral. I created our Greeting card over the weekend, and it was delivered the next Wednesday! When you know I am based in Japan, it sounds pretty amazing. The card looks exactly as on picture, the quality of the paper is what I expected, the envelops (FREE!) are great too. I am extremely happy and can't wait to order again - despite the hefty shipping fees, the only downside if you ask me, but it's always the case if you aren't based in the US."
"Card was great. The colors happen to go well with several of the photos we chose. Was able to add up to 9 photos which worked really well for us"
"Was able to share pictures to review 2013 and perfect wording for how we plan to spend 2014! Exactly the greeting I wanted to send our loved ones!"
"This card was so cheerful and colorful! I never have time for a Christmas card and I think I'm doing new years from now on. This was fab!"

Midwest Living Review
As Indiana's fourth-largest city, South Bend is best known as home of the University of Notre Dame, which is actually located just outside South Bend in the unincorporated community of Notre Dame. Ranking second to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Notre Dame University attracts the most visitors in Indiana -- nearly 700,000 annually -- with visitors spending nearly $40 million during Fighting Irish football season alone. Yet it's not all pennants and backpacks in South Bend. We found many places to shop, including the Eddy Street Commons area near the Notre Dame campus and an emerging arts and boutique neighborhood across the river from downtown. We also found a variety of dining options, from burger joints where you might rub elbows with students to upscale, white-tablecloth spots any foodie would enjoy. Our trip to South Bend was easy to enjoy because the city is a breeze to drive and park in, plus it's friendly and affordable. Part of the draw is the city's location along the St. Joseph River (at its south bend, naturally), which provides a sparkling backdrop as well as a great place for water sports, including white water rafting along the river's east race. Hiking or biking the nearly 13 miles of paved river walk is also a great way to pass the afternoon. More traditional than trendy, South Bend is a great place to explore and connect in friendly Midwestern surroundings.

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
Biofeedback is a form of mind control over the body that allows a person to reduce sensations of pain. Biofeedback is a technique that involves training the mind by using instruments that measure body functions.
The idea of controlling body functions with the mind is not new. Many Eastern philosophies, such as yoga, are based on the belief that meditation, and other thought processes, can control the body. In its modern applications, instruments that display a body function are used to direct and focus the mind.
Biofeedback is most often used with instruments that measure blood pressure, brain waves (EEG), breathing rate, heart rate, muscle tension, skin conductivity of electricity, and skin temperature.
Hooked up with electrodes to electronic equipment, a patient's breath rate, perspiration, skin temperature, blood pressure, and heartbeat are measured. The results are displayed on a computer screen. Specific devices are used to measure each body change, including:
Electromyogram (EMG). This is used to measure muscle tension.
Electrodermal activity (EDA). This is used to measure changes in perspiration rate.
Finger pulse measurements. These measure blood pressure and heartbeat.
In addition, both the rhythm and volume of breathing are measured.
Once a patient's body signals are recorded with the electronic devices, a biofeedback technician may recommend both physical and mental exercises to gain control. Biofeedback technicians are trained and nationally certified.
Biofeedback is most helpful to reduce stress and promote relaxation. It is under investigation for conditions, such as urinary incontinence, migraines, and other headaches.

"Car stalking" is one of those specialized skills that takes a keen eye and an insane amount of patience to master. If it's a term you're unfamiliar with — just know this is not the practice of spying a ridiculously optioned SUV rolling on 26s belonging to Paris Hilton, Lady Gaga (does she even drive?), or some has-been rock star who was once featured on MTV Cribs. Nope, we're talking about the art of scoping out a valuable piece of classic muscle down a 300-foot-long driveway revealing just a skosh of a taillight, and being able to recognize the year, make, and model in which said taillight belongs. It's that kind of intuition that could quite possibly get you that vintage ride you've been searching for the past 25 years. The car-stalking hobby takes a huge amount of perseverance and persistence, but the payoff can be well worth the effort: one day finding that automotive treasure of a lifetime in your own garage.
Although Chris Jacobs wasn't consciously stalking Jim Korbal's '68 RS/SS for two years, he kept in touch with him and would every so often inquire if he still had the Camaro, and if it was still for sale. "I had originally been invited to look at the car with some friends who were interested in buying it back in 2003," informs Chris. "As luck would have it, Jim and my friends weren't able to come to terms on a price so he held onto the car. I could tell he was interested in selling it, and having owned it for over 24 years, Jim was in no real hurry to gain a vacant spot in his garage."
At first, Chris didn't give the Camaro much thought, but after seeing it in person, the attraction firmly set in. It wasn't long before he realized there was a good chance in owning the car himself; he just had to be patient. "It wasn't so much that I wanted this car, I needed this car!" Confessed Chris. "Once Jim pulled the cover off and I saw those hide-away headlights for the first time, I was sold. The only problem was a '65 Malibu SS I needed to get rid of first. My wife, Lynda, was all good with me buying the Camaro as long as the Malibu went away first."
Two years later, in the spring of 2005, Chris was finally able to swing a deal with Jim on the Camaro. The Malibu sold the same day he brought the Camaro home.
Good or bad, every car has a past history, and with the length of said history being determined by a car's age, a Camaro over 35 years old could have one to rival in size of a 6th-grader's science book. "Since purchasing the car, I've run into a few people who were able to help me with valuable information," tells Chris. "I found out that it was first purchased as a high school graduation present for a kid in Tucson, Arizona." The location would explain the welcome lack of the typical Midwest rust and rot, and the age of the young owner explains the lack of the original drivetrain. Unfortunately, teenagers and aggressive driving go hand-in-hand, so it's safe to say the original big-block and trans had a short-lived relationship with the classic first-gen. It's a good bet the OE power plant and trans lay scattered somewhere on the Arizona desert floor being intensely watched over by a kettle of turkey buzzards.
Chris continued. "The car was originally equipped with the L89 aluminum-head 396 and M-21. Man, I wish those were still there!"
To ease separation anxiety, a big-block resides within the framerails: a 396 sporting steel '69 oval-port heads. An American Powertrian Tremec TKO 600 five-speed now handles the shifting duties.
It was 1980 when the car was brought up to Illinois where Rich Vitiritti purchased it, disassembled it, and performed a complete restoration. He even managed to meticulously re-spray the car in its original Ralley Green pigment … all in his home two-car garage.

The backyard can have a pleasing display of garden fairy statues and Greek garden statues but won't be complete until it also boasts at least one animal yard statue. Animal garden statues can add a key, natural touch that helps to complete the look of a backyard. Although a sculpted fountain gives a crowning touch to backyard decor and no garden should be without one or two elegant garden benches, animal garden sculptures showcase the stunning and dramatic beauty of nature's palette. However, once you realize that the garden could use a statue of a wild animal, which type of animal do you get?
If you are looking for "cute", you can't go wrong with a Meerkat Sculpture. While many animals look cute in their own way, the Meerkat is unbelievably and undeniably adorable. In fact, this mischievous little creature looks so cute, it can be hard to believe that it actually exists. Its tiny black paws and little black mask make this furry creature look like it's always up to no good while its big pleasing eyes and tendency to stand on its hind legs melts the heart with ease.
However, if you would rather opt for majesty and drama, forget about the Meerkat and get a stunning Tiger Sculpture! The Powerful Pounce Sumatran Tiger Statue blends fine details and beauty for a very realistic, powerful depiction of this big Asian cat.
Find high quality, realistic statues of Tigers and Meerkats at Design Toscano today.

Desserts will represent five nations and include: a sweet, crunchy, coconut candy from Ghana; classic French crepes; a thick Korean pancake with a peanut and cinnamon filling; Mexican churros made from fried dough and coated with sugar and cinnamon; and a Pakistani dessert called Ras Malai, which are soft balls of dough prepared in milk and flavored with sugar and pistachios.
The public is invited to attend. Tickets are $5 for adults and $2 for students. Reservations are recommended and may be made by contacting club adviser Paul Miller at 717-262-2776 or firstname.lastname@example.com, and leaving a message with phone number, name and number of tickets needed.

Classic Upward Bound
West Texas A&M University offers a federally funded college preparatory program called Classic Upward Bound. The program is designed to generate the skills and motivation necessary for success in post secondary education among first generation, low-income high school students. Students from area target schools who meet the eligibility criteria participate in both an academic year and summer camp program. Target schools are Caprock, Dimmitt, Hereford, and Tulia high schools.
Classic Upward Bound participants' are young individuals with academic potential constrained by low-income levels and a lack of college experience within their family. Due to various cultural, personal and social factors, post secondary education may seem out of reach for them. However, through participation in the Classic Upward Bound program, more than 90 percent of Upward Bound students will enroll in college after high school graduation.

Well, I've got good news, bad news, and good news.
The first lot of good news is that I came across the two Cosgrove Hall Discworld cartoons on DVD in a shop today that specialises in hard-to-get DVDs (like those from the UK or the US).
The bad news? The DVDs were from Germany, and I didn't discover this until after I paid.
The second lot of good news? The English soundtracks are still present on the DVD as an option.
And it's playable on a Region 4 DVD player, even though it said Region 2 on the back. I still have a player that can play Region 2 DVDs, but this helps.
So, let's start a discussion about the Cosgrove Hall adaptations. I think it was their version of Soul Music that actually got me onto Discworld in the first place. Either that, or a demo of Discworld II: Missing, Presumed...? that came free with my PlayStation when I was a teenager.
One thing they undeniably got right was casting Christopher Lee as Death. I know that he played Death in The Colour of Magic, but Cosgrove Hall did it first.

Chris and Monique Fallows have witnessed many extraordinary events while diving off South Africa.
But during two recent expeditions they captured wildly spectacular scenes that may never have been photographed: that of a voracious cape fur seal boldly snacking on large sharks; and dozens of blue sharks gathered around and gorging on an enormous ball of bait fish.
"In more than 2,000 expeditions working with sharks over the last 21 years, this is the only time I have ever seen a seal kill several sharks and I can find no record of such an event happening elsewhere."
The seal consumed the stomach and livers of the first two sharks, before killing three others.

Well I need to keep DSM8 happy (who I completely failed to meet this weekend), so here is my report.
So as many of you know I had a lot of issues leading up to the event. March was over-booked and stuff kept coming up. I'm a stubborn bastard though and was going to get out there no matter what, sorry to those who lost the bets.
After two hours sleep Tuesday night I departed at 4:50 AM for PSR. My method of travel didn't notice wind, rock solid all the way.
It took me quite some time to get there, I believe I rolled in at around 3:00 pm after many stops to do work via my Verizon MiFi card and about thirty minutes of sleep outside Trona (yes I still had hubcaps after I woke up).
As mentioned the drive was easy and while I felt a little guilty having a perfectly good dual sport motorcycle in the back I enjoyed it. I stopped in Trona for a little extra fuel and coffee and kept going. If you haven't seen Trona it is a wonderfully quaint little town full of affluent people with beautiful homes. It really is god's country.
After Trona came the point that I thought "hey, this would be a little fun on a moto."
I arrived at PSR, ate a delicious blue cheese burger in the restaurant and enjoyed a couple of Firestone DBAs. Afterward I set up my little home for the weekend, I took up as little space as possible expecting to share site 40 but nobody ever arrived.
In the late-afternoon I decided to head out to a cell spot I discovered on Panamint Valley Road. I went to grab my gear and realized in my haste that I grabbed my FirstGear Kathmandu Jacket but not the pants, I grabbed my FirstGear HT Overpants instead; my commuting pants. I was not happy but figured I would deal with it.
I wandered around camp like a lost puppy for the rest of the day. Having been involved in Jeep clubs for a long time and gone to numerous events where everybody knows me it was odd being the new guy again. In the evening I went over the the PSR restaurant and had dinner and a few beers. I hung out there for the evening sampling a few of the great beers on tap and in bottles, meeting a few ADVers along the way including Felix from Team Adobe. Later that night I brought my laptop over and took care of some work that had to be finished before going to bed.
Thursday morning I got up and did more wondering around. I was half-assedely looking for a 4x4 to place the repeater box on Hunter Mountain but failed to do so. I had some offers but didn't bring my printed information with me. By the afternoon I abandoned that project in favor of joining up with Joel, Larry, Jim, and a couple others (I'm shit with names, sorry folks!) to take a ride, I suited up in my commuter pants and armor and hit the road (not literally). We ran out toward Lookout Mountain where my KLR got to be the first one to stop for fixing. My GPS mount that had been solid for the past 5,000 miles decided to go loose. I opened my tail box and guess what? No tools! I lament my stupidity and wonder if I had left them in camp or at home. Larry grabs a Torx bit that just might maybe sorta work for the phillips screws on my mount. I thank him and walk around the bike to tighten it, in doing so I see the nice little tool carrier I mounted to my front fender. Yup, forgot all about it, there they were! We stopped to watch a little riding tequnique demo by Larry when I screwed up again, I was parked on a bit of a sidehill and missed my footing, down she went. I found out five miles later that I had broken the drivers side turn signal (earning me a Pelican hat brim light). After that we headed to Ballarat for some cold drinks.
After Ballarat it was off to look at the Golersteps; myself, Jim, and guy whose name I forgot ran up the steps. Me and the nameless dude kept going about halfway up the canyon before Joel caught up with us and told us we went too far; I was under the mistaken impression that Larry had gone up ahead, plus I was in the moment having fun and didn't want to stop. Sorry Joel! We turned around and made our way done.
That was my first real dirt day on the KLR, I had a blast and didn't drop it once while moving! The pants really sucked as they don't breath well, every time we stopped I zipped up the pant leg for ventalation giving Larry a bit of a show. I celebrated with ADVdinner and beer, thanks for the chili Bob, it really made that burger tasty. Much bullshitting happened at camp. I'm not responsible for any of it.
Friday morning I woke up early. I wondered around camp and saw a Klim dealer setting up. I decided to take a look. I walked away with a set of Klim Mojave pants. Yay for 10% discounts! Yay for not shitty pants! I went on Titus with Mr. G Greg. We stopped first at Beatty for fuel, supplies, and a friendly toilet before heading into Rhyolite and stopping by the museum / open-air gallery.

Szukalski's Last Supper
Hugo Heyrman clearly liked natural blondes. Here is the pixelated Lady Desert: The Venus of Nevada made out of cinder blocks.
After that we headed down to Titus. We had a good time and moved at a noob friendly pace, an anonymous member of the group may have said hello the ground a few times (no, it wasn't me)...
We had lunch at Leadfield where I took out my nice balance chair then continued on through Titus and ultimately back home in the mid-afternoon. While waiting at the construction site on Towne Pass ParaMud and Natalie pulled up behind us. I complimented Natalie on her pink KLR; she replied that, unlike Para and myself, hers was intentionally pink.
Friday night we had our dinner and first raffle, I didn't win :(
Luckily I had only consumed a couple beers at this point as word came out that Diego was stuck at the hot springs with an injured wrist. A good friend of mine keeps his built Cherokee at PSR so I grabbed it for the rescue. Larry took the lead in his F150 with a couple of guys inside and I jumped in David's Jeep along with John and we went down Saline Valley Road. We made it a good distance in before I got the call from Joel on the sat phone that Pablo had gotten Diego out of the hot springs and the bike was coming out in the morning. We turned around and got back to camp at around 1:45 or so. (John, give me those GPS plots!) It was a good night to do a bit of night wheeling and I had a good time. I was glad to hear Saturday afternoon that Diego had no breaks in the wrist.
Since I was up so late I didn't commit to any rides for Saturday. I woke up and wondered around camp a bit before taking David's Jeep across the street to get some breakfast. Then I filled the Jeep up and put it back where it belongs.
My *two* borrowed rigs for the weekend!
After locking the Jeep away I walked back to camp and started tidying up the camp and the bike's tail box while I decided where to go today. In case anybody is curious what that ugly tail box contains here it is. Two quarts of oil, two tubes, a few tools, a chair you'll see later on, and lunch in an East German surplus bag (yes, it is a requirement for all KLRs to use surplus crap). The black box mounted beneath is a first aid kit.
By mid-morning I had decided my final ride for this weekend; I went out toward Wildrose. Along the way I saw a white Jeep Grand Cherokee pulled over on Panamint Valley Road. Her radiator was completely knackered (and my was the coolant dirty inside). I made sure she had everything she needed and that help was on the way before I got back on the mighty KLR and continued my way to the dirt.
Heading up Wildrose I saw some larger than a rabbit wildlife. As soon as I saw the male on the road I killed the engine and coasted to a stop. This allowed me to take some photos of the whole family, two adults, one adolescent, and one cute little juvenile that you can't quite see here (to the right of the right-most full sized one).
Anyway blah blah blah I'm getting tired of typing so am just going to photo bomb a bit.

Previously mentoined chair, yes you balance on those two legs and is quite comfy and light. Don't use it while drunk.

I love the shadows of the clouds on the terrain.
Anyway after lunch I wondered back to camp and started the process of procrastinating packing up the truck. I went off looking for Long to see if he needed a ride home but he, being the hardcore motherfucker he is, had ridden out on the back of somebody's motorcycle. Afterward I grabbed a shower and got into some clean clothes. Then I packed my clothes away and broke down the tent. To celebrate this great accomplishment I had a beer and wondered over to eat dinner and be a big loser at the raffle.
Directly after the raffle I broke down the awning I had set up over the dinner area and packed it up. Felix helped me load the KLR into the truck then I finally set my stove up for the first time that weekend to make a pot of coffee. While the coffee was brewing I started tossing stuff into the cab and bed of the truck, being very careful not to be in any way organized. After the coffee was finished I let the stove and my lantern cool while I went and said my goodbyes/talk shit to the East and West wings of camp. I attempted to give my regards to Joel but he was probably passed out in his van after those pulls of Karma he had. I climbed into the truck and hit the road at 11:30, stopping about ten miles outside of Trona to grab an hours sleep; I made it to Torrance at 4:45am.
It was a great event and I am glad I went. Shout outs go to Joel for organizing this herd of cats as well as leading me into my first real dirt and Larry for sweeping. Greg for leading the Titus run and his sweeper Don. Heirhead Dave for letting me pester you on Wednesday afternoon. Jim for also letting me be a pest. And finally Team Adobe for keeping me from getting sun burnt the entire weekend and the half and half for my coffee Saturday night, I hope you got your wounded F800 off Goler and happy again.
One last note. I had a hell of a fun time on the paved Emigrant Pass road, some nice little corners that were fun with my low trail gearing and 606s.

Edit: Just tore down the top end all it did was wear the rings the bore smooth (nothing you can feel with a finger nail) and the piston looks like a very low hours piston so it just a set-o-rings, circlips and some gaskets! So it's $50 to get this "Classic" adver back in action!

Another year I did not make it. I even paid for my spot and everything. But I had a last minute emergency come up. Everything turned out good and the boss got a clean bill of health. So I post all the pictures and story so I can lie and say I went.

Aloha from the North Shore of Oahu, quite a contrast from the desolation of Death Valley. Had a great time hanging out with everyone and got in some great riding. Got to meet lots of new peeps.
Drove in Thursday night. My drive totally sucked, left my office in Carson at 3 and didn't get to PSR until 8:30 .... urggg. Was welcomed to camp with a fresh pour from the keg, thanks to who brought that. Also didn't have a place to crash so Finn, Nancy and Danny were nice enough to let me park in their camp site where I slept in the back of my truck.
Friday morning came quickly and my ride buddy Bill (conteacher) and I were all set to ride the Lost Tour. Bill, Danny G and I helped where we could and stayed at the back sweeping the ride.
Finn leading the group up the mountain on the way to Darwin
Up and over the mountain, everybody regrouping to start the ride up the sandwash
Out of the sandwash and the boys riding hard for Darwin
The folks in Darwin have some interesting collections
In Darwin, there were a couple of riders pretty worn out from rocky mountain road and sandwash and all were going to slab from Darwin to Olnacha Dunes. Bill and I broke off and rode over the next mountain to meet up with them again at Olancha.
We had some beautiful scenery, some nice sandy jeep tracks and got buzzed by some boys in their new F35's.
Catching up with everyone at the Dunes
From the Olancha Dunes the group was slabbing it to Ridgecrest for lunch so Bill and I jumped back on the dirt working our way to Ridgecrest to meet up again.
We jumped on the Cactus Flats trail and saw some great stuff
We found the smallest dry lake I've ever seen
Life is an adventure that requires the correct equipment
SPOT - bigtodd - where I at now?

Take our motorcycle mount on your next ride and you'll be enjoying your favorite apps, music and navigation with ease (Please ride responsibly and follow all laws). With a dual retention lock system that encompasses both our magnet kit and RokLock mounting technology, you can be assured your device is safe. And just in case that's not enough, a removable wrist lanyard adds a 3rd layer of protection. We have 2 sizes available: 50mm and 53mm (See Specs tab for fitment).
Designed, engineered and made in the USA.
Pretty cool design, I'm a fan of the finish. Easy to adjust, and dual locking.

I've been looking for a case and mount that I could attach to my R6 for nearly 1 year until I came across Rockform. Ithe mount is beautiful - anodized black aluminum, it fits perfect to the forks. After installing it, I realized that it only works by installing it on the right fork and the iPhone can only be set to landscape (horizontal) position. This is not due to a poor design from Rockform but to the narrow space on the R6 between he ignition system (installing the mount on the left fork makes impossible to insert the key to the ignition switch) and on the right side, the front break gauge males it impossible to set the phone vertically. In any case, I like te landscape setting more because I plan to use my phone as my GPS unit while riding and it gives me a better view. The case fits tight (maybe a bit too tight- removing it is a pain in the neck), the rubber seal fits perfect. The case sits on he mount perfectly, there is a VERY strong magnet that keeps hen together... I really can't see how the phone is ever going to fall from this mount (even at 80mph). The extra leash adds an extra level of protection and it is long enough to secure it to wherever part of the handdle bar that you want to use. The only one thing that I don't like is the "poncho"... It is a cheap thick ziplock bag, I'm sure it will do its work but with the quality of the mount and case, this is a miss... Something to improve!

It will be April 17-19, 2008 - according to http://www.hands-on-technology.de/en/firstlegoleague/fll_wf.

Is FLL international world championship always in Atlanta, GA?
I want to go there cause me and my dad is planning on starting a team and it is okay for my mom that we go there if it is in Atlanta, GA next year too. FLL looks so fun!
- May 5, 2007, 9:41:00 PM
- Jim Kelly said...
I'm pretty certain it will be held in Atlanta for at least another 2 years... possibly 3 (people I've asked seem to differ on 2 or 3).
Larry, thanks for posting the dates - this looks like a completely new website for FLL (orange color) and the other "official" FLL site only said "April" for the championship...

I don't know for sure, but it looks like that might be the official German site for FLL.

I think I heard that LEGO bought reservations in the Georgia Dome for 2? 3? years, and they might try to move it to France after that. Just a snippet of info.

Does anyone know if LEGO will come out with new products related to this theme? That is, a solar panel or a capacitor that's designed to fit with the NXT power cables, for instance?
- May 9, 2007, 4:54:00 AM
- Brian Davis said...
There's already a solar cell (a bit low power) and capacitor that LEGO makes, and I hope they show up in the challenge - the capacitor in particular is a really wonderful device for teaching. In fact, I can think of ways to have the robot mechanically charge the capacitor (with an RCX-era gear motor and a "treadmill", for instance), and then the charge can be used by a mechanism on the other side of the playfield. After all, day/night or regional electrical load sharing is an important concept, as is energy storage (which could be done in a whole bunch of ways - capacitors yes, but also gravitational potential energy, flywheels, etc.).
Lots of potential - I'll be curious to see what they come up with.

Prices for mats and field kits didn't change, so I doubt there will be any high value parts. I hope they have a nice tie in between the missions and the research presentation links like they did for nano. The ties between the table, the video games, and the stories about the nano-tech researchers resonated with my kids.
As for merging LEGO and this season's FLL theme my daughter's team built electrical generators using LEGO, bar magnets from Radio Shack (LEGO magnets are wimpy) and motor wire from McMaster Carr. They even built a winder out of LEGO to make the wire winding go faster and be more uniform. The design is not optimal, but at a nice steady crank speed of 1 rpm and a 1:15 gear ratio we are getting 2.5-3 volts.
More importantly it does a great job demonstrating how energy can be changed from one form to another. At our field trip to the power plant they didn't make the connection from how burning something makes electricity. Burning->steam->spinning was easy, but spinning to electricity escaped them. No longer.
As for solar panels, the LEGO ones were rediculously overpriced. I got a bunch from Pitsco (I'm sure they were overpriced too). Making an adapter cable is pretty easy. Next task is to make a solar powered battery charger and see if we can do the whole FLL season using renewable energy.
- May 10, 2007, 4:06:00 AM
- Jim Kelly said...
Do you have any pictures or videos of your daughter's creations? If so, please write up a small description and email to me some details and I'd love to post about it on the blog. Sounds like you've got some future engineers on your hands :)
- May 10, 2007, 4:53:00 AM
- Brian Davis said...
Dean, the LEGO motor sounds like a wonderful technology project - I agree with Jim, I'd love to see a web page or write-up. As to solar-powered LEGO, have you ever seen the creations of Justin Fisher?
Really amazing stuff - not just the high-efficency cells, but the auto-power-on ability in the RCX, and the stepping up to run a Geiger counter off the system as well. I was really really REALLY hoping for a lowe-power mode in the NXT to duplicate some of this sort of thing... but maybe Justin (or someone like him) will make some progress there as well.

chicago or north carolina anywhere where there is a season
well im in virginia and you should be happy you are working..

I tell myself that a couple times a year, but when it does finally cool off and we get those rare days when it drops into the thirties, I'm glad I'm not freezing my arse off in the snow. I know I couldn't handle it especially as I get older, but then the farthest North I've ever lived is around Orlando.

We had snow last Nov 21st. DIdnt stay.... was gone in a couple of hrs. We have mild winters. Heck we had a mild summer. Boss and I were talking.... we dont believe we had more than 1 week of 95+ all summer. Day here... 2 days there.... no more than 7-10 days total! Weird..... (and no Hurricanes .... Yippee!)

I guess it depends where you what to be and what you are working on , myself could never seem to get use to the extreme cold very hard to work under those conditions can only think of one thing getting warm.
Arguing with your Boss is like wrestling with a pig in
After a while you realize that while you are getting
dirty, the pig is actually enjoying it.
It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it
creative problem solving.
25 years ago we had Bob Hope , Steve Jobs , and Johnny Cash today we have no Hope no Jobs and no Cash !
I can fix broke but i can't fix stupid !
construction has slowed down up here in milwaukee for a lot of the big union guys, seems to be picking up, were looking for a decent commercial service guy, havent found one tho
we also are looking for a good commercial tech. not sur the job is worth moving your fam though.
I think we were the first to get snow this year, (Bend Oregon) snowed about 4 inches on 10/04/09. As far as jobs go. I think everywhere is tough. I looked at Monster.com for the heck of it and saw quite a few jobs that paid well though.
We are mainly heating. And yes 80* is hot to us so we do have A/C's. I had my slowest summer in 6 yrs on my own this year. Winter is looking alot better though. If you go north just remember the wind makes cold - colder. I will never forget how cold the Great Lakes area is in winter and that was 32 years ago. You can always put on more clothes to stay warm, try taking more off to cool down and see what happens. lol
If you think our goverment is screwed up. You haven't lived in another country.
I'm in north NJ and there is a drastic season change. Alot of people are out of work though, the Local is saying there hasn't been this many guys out since Reagan. Probably around 100 service techs out of 1600 statewide are riding pine right now. It has gotten a little better in the past few months but nothing great
u mean Carter? maybe save that for ARP
When we went thru northern Iowa down past Des Moines last Saturday it was snowing up there. Since then it seems like Minneapolis and north have had the same. Seems like that would mean an early start of the furnace calls in that area. I'm in NW Arkansas and I called my contractor ASAP to get him to wire up the new DFHP for heat! Seems like there are some Wisconsin and Michigan pros on this forum that might be prospects.

text: Overall, I think Ziggler is better than Curt Hennig. I also believe it is time for him to ditch Vickie, and it seems they are building towards that end. They are doing it slowly, which is the right way to do it. I watched a pre-show promo he did where he stopped Scott Stanford from speaking and was talking about his match with Sheamus. It was damn good. So he can carry a promo on his own. He is prone to promo mistakes, but when he has had someone do the talking for him, it is to be expected. He can only get better.

The Starkville 8-year-old All Stars are coming into the Dizzy Dean World Series with a lot of confidence.
The All-Stars face off against Bradley (Tenn.) North Heat today at 1 p.m. at Snowden Grove Park in Southaven.
Starkville is coming off a good showing in the state tournament and coach Tom McReynolds hopes that carries over.
McReynolds' squad knows what it is like to have its backs against the wall and have to battle.
"We won five-straight games in the loser's bracket and then we just sort of ran out of gas playing our third game on that Saturday," McReynolds said. "The kids were just tired that last day."
The will to never give up seems to have inspired Starkville and has given it a great deal of confidence in knowing that it can play when the pressure is on.
"We got some confidence," McReynolds said. "We were fielding real good, (but) we just ran out of hitting. We were just so tired that we just couldn't hardly pick the bats up that third game on Saturday. The reason why we are playing with pretty good confidence is we have played in all these warm up tournaments and we are 16-5. Three of the losses have come to teams we have come back to beat pretty handily."
The first round is pool play with four teams in Starkville's draw. Along with Bradley, the OP Sharks and the Hobgood Heat comprise Starkville's pool.
"This is a good opportunity for us to play some teams from other states and see where we stack up," McReynolds said.
There are 50 teams in the tournament.
On Friday, Starkville takes on the OP Sharks at 10 a.m. and the Hobgood Heat at 1 p.m.
"I don't know anything about them and I'd rather not know," McReynolds said.
The tournament bracket can be seen online at http://www.snowdengrovebaseball.com/custom/TournamentContent/381-12DDWS_.... The website lists every game with all the different tiers after pool play.View more articles in:

Co-op Chronicles from Crete
During her time as a co-op student in Crete, Greece, Natasha Pande, a senior communications student, will chronicle her experiences for Drexel alumni in a series of online journal entries. Natasha was afforded the opportunity to work in Greece, thanks to the Vidalakis Cretan Scholars Program.
For her co-op, Natasha is currently working at Creta Maris Beach Resort as a marketing and public relations assistant. She is working on various campaigns within the hotel, writing press releases, and is working on material for the information channels of the hotel. "I feel it is important to gain experience in different fields of business and understand how methods of marketing are molded accordingly," she said.
Natasha hopes to learn more Greek and immerse herself in the Cretan culture. She believes that an international experience will help her understand how to overcome cultural and language barriers in a work setting. She is also thoroughly enjoying the cultural exchange experience with the Erasmus students in Crete. Erasmus (European Community Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students) is an exchange program organized by the European Union. The European Student Network in Crete helps the Erasmus student network by planning activities for them. "The Drexel students have been adopted by the Erasmus student group and have been called the Drexelakis, 'akis' meaning people belonging to Crete," she said.
Natasha said that she is also thoroughly enjoying the cultural exchange experience with the Erasmus students in Crete. She has had the opportunity to meet and network with students from all over Europe.

This sedan was all new for 2011 and hasn't seen many updates for the 2012 model year. Aside from a few optional features becoming standard on some trim levels, the Optima remains unchanged. That's not a bad thing, though. Exterior styling has not been touched, thankfully. Bold lines and sporty proportions give the Kia four-door a whole lot of curb appeal at a price that isn't going to keep your kids from going to college someday. The Optima is based on the Hyundai Sonata, but the two cars share no exterior body panels. Using the same running gear as the Sonata, the base engine for the Optima is a 198-hp direct-injected four-cylinder. A 274-hp turbocharged in-line four and a hybrid-drive model round out the power choices. The hybrid gets excellent fuel economy, as expected, but this isn't the most polished hybrid system in the segment. The base engine, actually, gets very good fuel economy, and the turbo adds lots of power without much of a fuel economy penalty. This latest Optima has little to do with the milquetoast Optima sedans that came before. The current version is larger and rides on a longer wheelbase that frees up an additional 2.9 inches of legroom. Available high-end features include heated seats, a heated steering wheel, a panoramic sunroof, and a 500-watt Infinity sound system. The 2012 Optima will be built in Kia's plant in West Point, Georgia, alongside the Sorento. Optima hybrids, however, will still be imported from Korea.

Advanced Manufacturing Fundamentals Career Studies Certificate
The Advanced Manufacturing Fundamentals Career Studies is a response to nontraditional, short-term program education needs of many adults. Many of the courses are offered during evening hours so that it is possible for an individual to earn a certificate while remaining employed. Career Studies Certificates require between nine (9) and twenty-nine (29) semester credit hours. While some Career Studies Certificates are related to Certificate or Associate of Applied Science degree programs, others are self-contained.
The DSLCC Continuing Education and Workforce Services Division provides Career Studies Certificates which are not related to associate degree programs. These programs are designed to provide students with specific work-related skills. The College works with local employers to design programs which will lead to employment in local businesses and industries.
The Career Studies Certificate in Advanced Manufacturing Fundamentals includes nine (9) courses on topics that include technical skills, computer applications, technical mathematics and an introduction of principle concepts of technology in the manufacturing environment.
Program Requirements
The program requires completion of selected specialized courses. All electives must be approved prior to enrollment. A Career Studies Certificate is awarded upon completion of the program with an overall GPA (grade point average) of 2.0.

I've been cleaning up space on my RAID 5 array, and now have more than enough space freed that I can make at least one drive a hot-spare (previously had a 8 x2 RAID 5 array). I know how to do an online expansion to go from n->n+1 drives (7-8, etc) but i haven't seen very many resources on how to remove a drive from an array.
I've got a dell perc 6/i controller, and when I try doing something like marking a drive offline, I don't see any options in megaraid manager to rebuild the array as a 7 drive array. am I missing something, or is there no way to easily to downgrade an array from a larger array to a smaller one? Recently we had quite a few drives fail in arrays at work, and it got me worried aobut possibly loosing more than 1 drive in my personal array, so I'd like to have at least one drive configured as a hot-spare.
