Out Of Their Minds | Jul 5, 2011 | 27:22
They've Lost Their Senses - Episode 2
The largest organ on the human body is the skin. And yet, for some reason, our sense of touch is often overlooked. In this episode we meet two forward-thinking inventors, who are working to make better use of the sensory receptors in our skin Katherine Kuchenbecker works in the emerging field of haptic technology. She's developed computers that let people "feel" the pictures being displayed on a monitor. In addition to being used for surgical training, we'll hear how this technology could drastically improve gaming, and online shopping. Our second guest is Dr. Frank Russo. Along with his team at Ryerson University's SMART LAB, Frank developed the Emoti-chair - a piece of furniture that creates new ways for deaf people to experience music.

1995 Lincoln Town Car Q&A
1995 Lincoln Town Car Question: digital clock failurein lincoln towncar
The digital clock, located , center of dashboard, topside, has gone out. How to I remove it or service it? thank you - shanahan
Answer 1
I don't think it can be serviced, it is generally replaced and Fords been very weak about parts for any of their cars past 10 years old ( unfortunately ). Be sure and check all your fuses, because the clock runs off a courtesy fuse ( includes cig lighter ) or may have its own. You need to remove the panels that border the clock. - dandd
Answer 2
Check all fuses associated with the clock. Check your owner's manual for reference. If this does not work replace it by using the following steps I used. 1995 Town Car Digital Clock Removal and Installation 1. Remove clock and housing by applying upward pressure to top of housing and working two front clips out of instrument panel upper finish panel (044A91). 2. Disconnect clock electrical connector. 3. Remove two screws retaining electric clock (15000) to housing. 4. Remove electric clock from housing. 5. To install, reverse Removal procedure. - idapearl

The Tuscany region
Lunigiana is the most northern part of Tuscany bordering Liguria, with Pisa and Genova airports approximately one hour away. A quiet corner of Tuscany where traditions are strong, hospitality generous and the pace of life relaxed. The marble peaks of the Apuan and the Appenine mountain ranges encompass the region against which magical outlines of castles can be seen, many restored while others remain romantic ruins. Paths lead through narrow village streets with stone houses rendered beautiful with simplicity.
Seasonal festivals are held in the villages throughout the year to celebrate the harvests, with simple recipes evolved through the centuries and gathered from the tastes of Tuscany, Liguria and Emilia Romagna. During the long summer nights the village streets are lit by candle light with live performances and cantinas are opened selling local handicrafts.
Experience this beautiful landscape by foot or horseback and cool in the shady river pools of the valleys. Pontremoli is a principal town with its imposing Duomo and hilltop castle that house the stele statues dating from 2000BC, said to hold the mystery of an ancient civilisation.
In contrast to Lunigiana, the Ligurian coast is so very close in distance but in many ways a world apart. A short drive takes you to the Gulf of the Poets where you can wander the bustling, old streets of La Spezia with its cosmopolitan atmosphere, enjoy a drink in its many bars and of course explore the shops and the markets. Relax in one of the many seafood restaurants at Lerici and watch the sunset from the harbour.
Regular ferries leave for Portovenere with its pastel coloured waterfront, and the award winning Cinque Terre, five fishing villages that cling to the side of this dramatic coastline. The last of these villages has a beautiful beach for sun and sea enthusiasts, with some of the clearest waters in Italy. Sarzana lies inland, an elegant town of piazzas and narrow lanes with a host of antique shops and small boutiques and opens its streets during the summer for the annual market selling antiquities and memorabilia.
Cultural centres such as Parma and Lucca are in easy reach. Florence can be visited by car in about an hour and 30 minutes or experience the superb scenery by train. Transport links are very good and inexpensive, however car hire is recommended to really appreciate the region. This is a holiday with an opportunity to explore not only this beautiful part of Tuscany but also Liguria. If you have a passion for Italy, its architecture, culture, fine food and wine then this experience is for you. It would be impossible to mention all the region has to offer, however we are sure that after your visit this will be a place you find difficult to forget.
Licciana Nardi
Panicale is one of the most picturesque villages in the area. Down the hill takes you to the valley town of Licciana Nardi with a selection of amentities. Aulla is about 15 mins drive providing a host of services and a link to the autostrada. The surrounding villages are dotted with popular restaurants we you can experience local specialities and take in the amazing views.
A 15 min drive through along the hillside road connects Panicale to the medieval village of Bagnone. Stroll through the stone arcades or by the cascading river and sit and watch the world go by in one of the bars in the main piazza. Festivals are held during the summer months to celebrate local traditions, and harvests.
Filetto hosts the annual medieval festival during August where you can experience the old market stalls and entertainers in traditional dress. The area provides a perfect base for those who wish to get away from it all yet within easy reach of one of the most beautiful coastlines in Italy, and many famous tuscan centres. A holiday with a host of opportunities and experiences.

This may sound extremely simplistic, but, I can assure you that it can and has worked. Let's use me as an example. I have an un-dying inspiration to see a major change in X. However, my inspiration will not accomplish anything other than being in a stack of things which I really never went after. You see, I had inspiration, I assumed someone, someone else would turn that to action. How wrong I was. Now, when I am involved in a topic/problem where I have great inspiration, I first find out what I can do JUST by myself. I have to start the process. I then go to my friends, not my friends with whom I hang out and just have a nice time, but the friends who challenge me in my thinking and I do the same to them. I let them see my inspiration, then I show them the action I have taken to date. Assuming, and this is usually the case for me, these special friends also have the inspiration, but, they are busy, have families, work a lot and so on, leading them to leave it all off at inspiration. However, this time I don't let them off of the hook. I ask them to choose a simple action which will help keep the action in play, moving forward. I also ask them to bring in their friends and family, lets see if the talk can really become the walk. If I don't overload them and have them thinking that only the eight of us will change the issue for the better, then I am on my way. I ask them who can help them with the tasks we have undertaken. We set up a an ad-hoc committee to make sure that our goals are correct for not only the issue, but the region of the country or planet. Regional answers are often a way to make forward progress. I then try to set up a Social Nation, using the many tools which let us set up our own social network where we can share in our progress and our lack of progress. It is where we can bring in new members to get them excited about being on the front line of change. It works, but, I go back to the beginning. I must start the action.

About Stephen
I'm passionate about
Roasting my own coffee, which I buy from around the world, and I am a passionate storyteller and listener.
Talk to me about
you and your story. The story of how you came to believe in what you really do believe in, what made you passionate about certain things, what you have learned from a child, do you smile a lot?
People don't know I'm good at
Roasting my own coffee. I have roasted hundreds of pounds of coffees from almost every coffee producing country. I work with the best to find the best coffee, it is amazing, ask for some. Please!
Comments & conversations
Steve, I don't think your very solid ideas negate what was said in the speech. Over the last 6 yrs, I have been fighting the roughest battle of my life, a cancer that has its own story. Yet, my doctors, w/Western & Eastern medicine saw hope, said I was not a statistic but a person. It mostly was really horrible, but also great. I started a wonderful company to great success, I have met the most amazing people & seen how kind they can be. Being sick doesn't let me out of wanting to invest in the world by helping people, so I helped many w/their businesses. 2 months ago I went into remission, but at the same time, my body and a good part of my mind gave out. The pain I live in I can't explain, I have more surgeries, but how blessed am I to afford them. I would NOT trade anything of the past, I met too many good people, worked w/good people. I think like you, there are many ways to find happiness. www.stephencarey.com if you want, is about living, real life, while very ill.
Luis, I love what you have to say. I am lucky and own a home in Costa Rica. I will be a legal resident very soon. Yes, Costa Rica has its issues, I feel all countries, tribes, counties, cities, any grouping of people will have problems. Nic discusses how so many of the major movies are about the ending of the world or the world as we know it to be. I agree, but more, for me, I actually fear - literally fear for my life - due to some of the very far right, beyond religious, yet, little spirituality - frighten me. They have said, in some speeches that people like me should be dead. Even more, though, is that somehow taking care of our planet is not a political issue - how can that be? And, while I do not believe the Bible to be THE TRUTH word for word, many of these people do. They tell me Noah & the Ark is total truth. Well, if their God wanted Noah to save these animals, shouldn't they respect those wishes also? They call me a faggot and move on.

There are currently two versions to choose from. The first, from the Japanese PlayStation channel, has the whole clip in glorious HD (see below). Sadly it lacks subtitles. Luckily, the version found on the official Japanese Ghost in the Shell page (see the top of the page) has English and Chinese captions—though the clip is only in SD quality.
Ghost in the Shell: Arise border: 1 Ghost Pain will be released in Japanese theaters on June 22, 2013. No international release date has been announced but the Japanese Blu-Rays, which include English subtitles, will be released on July 26, 2013.

Great trip report! I love your pictures of the PPP parade with the sky and clouds in the background. Beautiful!!
Great trip report! I love your pictures of the PPP parade with the sky and clouds in the background. Beautiful!!
Very nice report! I loved going to Universal Studios when I used to live out in SoCal. Last time I was there was December 2000.
I love how they have a Norman Bates out at the hotel. Very funny!!!
Awesome TR. Your pictures really seem to capture a true feeling of being right there. This is by far the best tr of Disneyland and NFFC
I havn't seen Universal in about 40 years and WOW they offer so much.
Look forward to the your Studio tr
Monday July 21st
First of all, I want to thank my friend who allowed me to visit the Walt Disney Studios and for
lunchtime my friend spent with me, giving me a tour of the part of the Studios. You see, there
is much more to the studio, than just the area that I have pictures of. I wasn't on the east side
of the studio, where they film tv shows in studios (although a couple years ago, I did see an
episode of 8 Simple Rules being taped in one of those buildings. There is also apparently an
outdoor street that can be used for taping various things.
I pack my car, and check out of the hotel. Then drive up to Burbank to the Disney Studios!
I drive in the gate closer to the Team Disney Building, and they direct me to the other gate.
At the west gate, they check my id, and give me a guest badge to wear.
One of the more notable buildings is the ABC Building, across the road from the Studios.
There is a bridge that does go across the road, for access from the rest of the Studio.
But that wasn't where I was headed.
But do take note of the unique design of the fence surrounding the studio!
From where I parked, you can catch a glimpse of the Sorcerer hat building, That would be fun
to see closer up, but it wasn't part of the tour, for me.
I did walk under a covered walkway, by a wall. At the end of the wall, I did get a little peek
at some of the Buildings where tv shows and movies have been taped.
That wasn't the area I toured, though.
The part of the Disney Studios I toured was very "park" like!
This Building was moved from the
Hyperion Disney Studio lot!
Topiary Mickey Is Standing Guard, and Welcoming all, near the commissary
I did eat lunch there, after I toured the studio. They do have a couple outdoor eating areas, adjacent to the commissary.
Little further down the street, is one of the more famous Landmarks, which was used in the movie
"Pete's Dragon". You can see the curb is painted, identifying it as "Pluto's Corner"
I did notice the red fire hydrant, but my friend pointed out WHY it's called PLUTO'S CORNER!
And only now do I think of "posing by the fire hydrant"
If we continue down Mickey Ave, it leads to the Team Disney Buiilding,
But, we are going to go down Dopey Drive for a few stops, first.
There are two very common sites around this area, the first is squirrels!
There are 2 in this picture.
The other is bicycles.
We head into the Theatre Building, first. Throughout the area leading to the front door, it's like a "Grauman's Chinese Theater" of Disney Dignitaries.
This Mickey Greets you in the entry lobby. There isn't a concession stand, but Disney did have popcorn and soda's for screenings of movies.
And here is the Theater. My friend did get a chance to see Wall-E in here back in January. They also use this theater for editing sound.
I did get permission to take a couple pictures in this soundstage.
They were working on foreign language sound editing for the upcoming special dvd release of Sleeping Beauty. Going through it FRAME by FRAME. I didn't ask how long it takes for just one one language.
Here is another soundstage. As you can see through the window, there is separate room for the voice actor or singer.
They try to give the people who are doing the voice work some privacy, while vocals are being taped. They wouldn't let me in here while the actual taping was going on. There are VERY FEW who are allowed to drive directly up to this entire area of the lot, but there are about three or four parking places for the easy access by the voice artists.
This day, they had a least a couple of the people in High School Musical 3 recording. I didn't see them, but I really wasn't expecting too.
Next we head to the other building across from the Theatre. There is a long hallway that goes straight through the center of the building, with several different animation pieces in the hallway. Some are originals, some are copies.
Part way down the Main Stretch, my friend told me that Marty Sklar's office was down this hallway.
A Mr. Potatohead, signed by Don Rickles!
This Mickey was in the center of the building.
And here is the Team Disney Building, which was completed in 1990.
Going throught the Main Entry, there is a rather large hallway with very tall pillars. I one area, you see this tile mural of Walt and Mickey.
There is a smaller parking lot near this building,
But there is also a courtyard area, where the Disney Ledgends awards are displayed. This was later in the afternoon, and you can see they were setting up for some sort of reception. (the tables were not there when I had arrived, shortly after noon.) You can see the 3 major sculptures in this photo. Sorcerer Mickey hand and wand(right side of picture) , Roy and Minnie on bench (toward the left), and the Walt and Mickey statue (center just beyond the blue tables). In the very back, you can see the Frank Wells Building.
The Disney Legends Statue
Roy and Minnie and Me. WDW guests will recognise this.
On the left, you see some plaques with hand prints of various Disney Animators, and other notables. These are NOT cement.
Walt and Mickey
The Frank Wells Building, with the Film Reel theme.
Yeah, I took a lot more, but only showing the more interesting ones.
The dedication at the entry to the building.
Immediately as you enter the building, there is a Large open lobby, one area has these large display cases with some of the clothing and props from Camp Rock.
A MUCH more interesting display was on your left hand side, as you enter the large lobby. These display cases showed off the head gear over the past several decades
The Rookie (Left) worn by Dennis Quaid
Pearl Harbor (Middle) worn by Ben Affleck
Lt Robinson Caruso (Dick Van Dyke) is the straw hat on the left
Ollie Johnston RR hat (left)
Jimmie Dodd Mouse Ears (center)
Band Hat for Disneyland's 25 anniversary (right)
Walt's personal hats
Pharoh hat from Spaceship Earth
Sam the Eagle Hat America Sings
the two smaller hats are also from America Sings
Davy Crockett
(I didn't realize that even the face of the racoon is on his hat ! Dead center!)
Mary Poppins
Hats from the Pirates movies.
Hat from TRON on the left
On another wall, there was a display case showing some conceptual art AND a model vehicle for Tokoyo DL's Monster's Inc Ride and Go Seek
Right next to that display case is the entry to the Disney Archives!
I was surprised that the door to Archives is on the Main Floor, right by the large lobby of the Frank Wells Building. I really was expecting it to be in a Vault hidden in a secret cave, like Batman, or through a series of locked gates, like at the beginning of Get Smart. But it was only one door away from being the lobby of the Frank Wells building.
Mickey Mouse Review models
There were several bookcases in the archives, the top of the bookcases held the more interesing items, like this model for the Absent Minded Professor
Some of the Pirate Figures
My friend also pointed out these Mickey Portraits. Every Decade (or so) Mickey has a new Official portrait done. Here are four of them. In this first picture, off to the right, you get a brief glimpse inside Dave Smith's office. Yes, he was in there at the time, with his door open, he was busy on his computer, so I didn't get a chance to talk to him. I didn't take any pictures of him, to keep his privacy.
One of the most interesting things in the cases of this room was Walt's Passport from 1918, when he joined the Red Cross. His signature is on the bottom left.
Ah, but that was not all. Upstairs in the same building, there was also another room that has several other Disney artifacts. We took the elevator, which is very distinctive!
As we get off the elevator, there was some Ugly Betty Signage. My friend explained that this floor also had some ABC offices. We walked down the hallway to another room, which could be described as storage area or closet for other Disney Archive material.
There was a longer counter, off to the right, as you enter the room
Just behind the counter is the Rocketeer outfit.
The Zorro outfit from the 1950's was also on display.
In addition, there was a large rack of clothing, at one end, Prince Edwards costume from Enchanted. I asked if I could get a closer look, and seeing how excited I was, they happily obliged. However I may have over stepped my bounds when I asked if there would be a possibility of "trying it on". Well, they just kind of giggled, kindly said no. and then hauled me away to the Disney jail ( )
They did let me try on the boots of Queen Narissa.
Unfortunately those photo's didn't turn out.
(ok, I joke, they didn't even take the boots out of the plastic. )
They had several display cases in the room, among those,
Mary Poppins
Return To Oz
Roger Rabbit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rocketeers Rocket!
Y'all know these!
This was cool. The portrait from the 1st Shaggy Dog movie.
This is shown in the movie, when he looks for information about the curse!
When my friend asked if I wanted my picture with Walt, I'm sure I had
a strange look on my face. For a second, I thought, is that cryogenic stuff true? then they showed me this little area behind the door!
All good things have to come to an end. And that was all the time
for me in the archives. But I'm thankful for getting to see so much,
and for them not hauling me off to Disney Jail for wanting to take
Captain Jack Sparrow's Hat and Prince Edward's outfit!
Oh, I did want to point out, it's interesting to see the NBC Peacock on this mural, as there are ABC offices on this floor! But it is part of Disney history!
Just a couple more pictures of the Team Disney Building, as seen from the Frank Wells Building.
Just a few more picture of this beatiful part of the Disney Studios
In the Commissary and in the Lobby of the Frank Wells Building, I saw this Sign! Disney's Pooh Camp ~ HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
After saying goodbye, I wanted to stop by the Disney Soda Fountain
and El Capitan theater, since it wasn't too far away. So, off to Hollywood.
I my report back in April, I showed some pictures of DCA, and compared them
to their originals in Hollywood. Here is one more set to add to that series.
Hollywood ~ the first floor is a Popeye's Chicken, the 2nd floor is a medical office.
I did stop in the costume store on Hollywood Blvd, and what a surprise to run into
MaryAnn in Wonderland and ShockerBatman! They were looking for some items in
preparation for the Comic Convention in San Diego!
Right across the Street from the costume shop, is the Snow White Cafe,
in case you didn't already know.
In front of Grauman Chinese Theater, they had an area blocked off.
Looks like Michael Caine made an appearance recently.
Of course the "celebrities" were nearby
I didn't watch Wall-E at the El Capitan, as they only have a short stage show,
and nothing large like what they did for Pirates or Enchanted.
This must be a new addition to the front of the Disney Soda Fountain!
At least it doesn't cover Donald's Star. Quite a few people were stopping to take their pictures
with this minnie Mickey Mouse, adults and kids both!
This is a fairly small version of Mickey.
Inside the Disney Soda Fountain, they had Planet decoration above.
They also seem to have expanded the store, further into
the center of the room. But they too were short on Wall-E
They also added a Kodak machine, similar to the ones you
see in Target, BUT the one at the Soda Fountain has some
exclusive borders that you can place on your pictures. I
played around with the machine a little ~ Here I dressed up
one of the Photos of me on the Disney Studios lot
I like Walt and Wall-E in the same picture! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Hope you all enjoyed the "virtual trip" through part of the Disney Studios,
and part of the Disney Archives!

I love all your pictures and a tour of the studio could not happen to a nicer guy.
I would LOVE to visit the Disney Studios! How exciting for you. Wonderful TR!
These are some amazing pictures. I really enjoyed the one from the studio. This looks like an fun trip. Thank you for sharing.
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
I'd LOVE to tour the studios! I drove by them a couple weeks ago just to be a tourist and have fun. Is there any way to actually tour them or do you have to know someone? I was told Disneyland CMs can get in to tour certain parts of it but I'm not so sure of it.
Disney does offer tours through Adventures by Disney, but those run around $2,500 per person and include a visit to Imagineering, Disneyland tickets and more.
Otherwise you basically have to know someone(and it may well be that they have to work somewhere at the Studios. I know of a case where a guy worked for Disney's online division and he could not get his wife on the backlot.
I loved the Studios pics. I got to tour the Studios in February and your pictures brought back so many memories. My case was an instance of knowing somebody with the right connections.
Great detail and wonderful pictures Todd. Thanks again!
The commentary on my report in post 34 is complete now. It was really
great to see so many interesting things from Disney History, as well as
what they are working on now.
chance to see. Imagineering was one of the areas I didn't see. I would have LOVED to see one of the stages, when they were filming the 1st pirate movie, with the caverns and waterways ~ oh well, at least part of that is on dvd. But I was really fortunate to get a chance to see two different rooms of the Disney Archives and the sound stages, as well.
And again, a special THANKS! to the person who got me in!

WOW, the studio pics are great. It's nice that they gave Oscar his own display case.
It's also interesting that the items in the case in the lobby seem to be updated frequently, as when I was there, Oscar was in the case, along with some Mary Poppins costumes and a few other small items.
On top of the book cases in the office there were only two items. Pinocchio and the model for the Star Speeder 3000 (which I didn't get a pic of)
Our tour, featured a walk around the lot, and places like the prop rooms, the animation building (with the Mickey hat), the Frank Wells building, with a bit of the archives, but we were expressly forbidden from taking photo's. In fact at certain times they took our camera's and cell phones, to prevent us from taking pictures in the screening room.
When we were in the archives downstairs, the person guiding me wasn't sure if pictures were allowed in the archive. There was a lady at desk in the same room,
and we asked if pictures were allowed, and she said yes. The archive room upstairs was also ok with taking pictures. We did NOT start going through books, nor did we touch anything on the shelves, either. Oh, the picture of Walt on the wall in the upstairs archive room (in the Frank Wells Building) certainly seems
to be set up for photo ops.
I'm sure, since they didn't want us in the sound stage when a couple people were recording for High School Musical 3, they wouldn't want pictures taken of any of that work in progress either. If the sound editor had been working on a NEW movie, they might not have allowed me in that sound stage either, and I'm sure they would not have allowed cameras, either. But since it was Sleeping Beauty, which has already been released, they were ok with a couple of pictures. I'm sure
most of the time, guides would just say "No Pictures in this Building", because the might not necessarily know what was being worked on.
Oh, the guide told me that this was the first time that guide had seen the Camp Rock Outfits. (personally, I think Mary Poppins would have been much more interesting.)

Super hard wearing boys runners
Started by Crap Napper , Nov 21 2012 09:47 PM

Posted 21 November 2012 - 09:47 PM
So DS's latest pair of runners have lasted a total of three weeks, and he was in bed sick for one of those weeks. His toe is already completely through the shoe and the sole has worn away in a few places I will definitely take them back, but was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for some that might be harder wearing? Thanks

I always found tennis runners, with the hard plastic toe area, lasted longer than jogger style runners.
Posted 22 November 2012 - 03:55 PM
what brand are you buying OP? although expensive i always buy DS branded runners as he out grows them before he ruins them. he has big feet though ( size 13 and only 4 so )( saving his previous shoes for future kids.) He only wears 2 pairs of shoes so i see the investment a good one.
Posted 22 November 2012 - 03:57 PM
Is this for every day wear at school? DS had some by New Balance that lasted really well - similar to this. He actually outgrew them which was a first!
Posted 22 November 2012 - 03:58 PM
my boy is really hard on his shoes...
i try and avoid anything that has stitching on the top of the toes because he destroys them...
also things with tough leather tops as material just gets destroyed.
Posted 22 November 2012 - 05:16 PM
My DS hasn't had a pair of school shoes last more than 2 months in his 6 years of schooling. At the start of May I bought him a black leather pair of Nike runners for school. He has worn them 4 times a week since May and I'm very excited to say that he is still wearing them, the toe on one shoe is now coming away but still very wearable and will definitely last until end of term and I think they only cost around $60 from Rebel. So I think full leather joggers are the way to go.
Posted 22 November 2012 - 05:23 PM
I have always found new balance extremely hard wearing, and I also agree, some nikes are also very good (my son wears the black leather type ones).
Posted 22 November 2012 - 05:24 PM
DS was really hard on his school shoes and constantly pushing through at the toe area, so I started buying skate shoes like these.
He gets though a whole year, unless he grows out of them.
As long as they are blqck and leather, the school can't say anything
For sports shoes, I find New Balance, Nike and Asics to be the longest lasting.
