not a great home delivery service!!!
I have had really bad experience of home order from this restaurant. On weekday like Monday, they took 1 hour and 15 min to deliver the food.
After lots of follow ups ( a girl voice kept on answering that parcel has already been dispatched ), we finally decided not to accept the home delivery.
I receive one call from somebody who sounded manager. And surprise.... Though he was polite he was frank enough to tell that delivery was clubbed with other orders and so it took more time.
We were proven right then on not accepting the delivery as who would like to eat cold food.

Great food!
Whenever I crave for chinese food, i have many options to choose from as there are too many chinese restaurants in andheri. But if i want to eat quality food and not over infused masala chinese then this is my go to place!
Saffron serves some amazing chinese and thai dishes that are so yummy and flavorful. Their 3 Aroma rice is so amaaaazingggggg! Almost all their gravies are a hit and their appetizers are yummy too.
Sometimes their services might get a little delayed be it while dining at the restaurant or while ordering it at home.
Saffron serves great food without making it too heavy on our pockets!

A lot of Service Improvement needed
I visited this restaurant on 28/12/2013 for a business lunch to discuss few things with some people. It was a surprised to find buffet arrangement and tables arranged in such a congested place. We opted for la carte. Jade soup was fabulous, Veg crispy as a starters was not appealing. Indian vegetables are really very well made but when i had ordered Naan i recieved Roti though i didn't complaint because i want to concentrate on my meeting. Veg biryani was Good.
Would like to mark that service of staff is very pooooorr and slow so please ordered your food well in advanced.
hi i was yesterday with my wife and 2 year old daughter to celebrate an occasion i always order for a wine i was suggested 3 different ones i banged on to have 4 seasons and my wife for a mocktail and a prawns in butter garlic sauce for the start after 12 min wait the captain comes to me saying the wine is not available with not much choice i asked for the second option to my surprise my starter was on my table even before the wine and the mocktail .for the second course i wanted to eat fish itself as my daughter is fond of it too the captain suggested me fish grill that of bassa or deep fried fish or surmail tawa and he him self told me go for the tawa surmai so i said fine again after 6 min he comes back saying the fish is not available i mean what kind of service is this i instantly called for the manager who in turn should had come up to me started talking to the captain then he went inside the kitchen came back to the captain and told him that it seems in the briefing it was mentioned that there is no surmai i could hear this conversation happening still he did not come up later a curly guy with a tie i suppose he is the asst comes up to me saying could i serve you any thing else i was so pissed the reason is also just next to me the table next was a couple with their daughter who ordered for a dessert where the order was taken then the same captain comes back saying not available then the couple agrees for red velvet cake when consumed by their daughter was stale and was changed for black forest by the same captain all this really pissed me off as the manager is not at all firstly co operative and has no respect for the guest they do not even apologise for their inappropriate behaviour i just asked for my bill paid off and just walked off the rest with out creating a sean as there where a lot of guest around just to say to the management of saffron you managers are very rude no respect to guest and there is for sure no communication between both kitchen and service staff .Food and service is number 1 that comes in to picture for a restaurant to grow secondary is your ambiance and price.Hope the management takes this note seriously for me that was the first and the last time i would visit this place never ever again.

Disappointed place- wont recommend
Wont recommend- totally disappointing place
It was worst experience I ever had at good restaurentSaffron totally disappointed behaviour of restaurent manager. We 12 colleagues went for lunch buffet there, a long thread came in my roti I asked waiter to call his mananger thrice but got no response to it finally went at billing desk and asked the person sitting over there call manager and show this how maintain your fame but he said that manager is busy I waited for somtime till when he was back and came to knew this thing but he didnt came to table for apologising this made me disappointed and this when bill came I told that I wont pay for one plate which I left as it is, then the manager came and said we cannot give such discount we can just change the roti and till end he didnt apologised for it and said that ' thread he toh tha' this was the way he talked to customer.
Must go for Freind groups

Good experience overall!
Went there on a Sunday evening and the place had a good ambiance and good food... The service was decent too... Infact someone in my family commented that there are more waiters than tables at the place...They were serving happy hours till 9 pm with some starters also added to the Happy Hour menu... however, the price of all the starters in the menu were hiked up 70% from the normal menu which means 1+1 doesnt actually work out to a 50% discount on those actually... something they should check on... Overall good experience i should say though...

Value for money buffet lunch in Andheri/Jogeshwari
Have been here 7 - 8 times, usually for buffet lunch, which is quite inexpensive at 275 per head. Their spread is quite good, but do take care to sit downstairs, usually due to the large number of customers coming in, they arrange for the buffet upstairs as well, but if you go upstairs, then you will miss salads and starters (although the staff claims otherwise). Reach there early at around 12:15 PM to get a seat at the main restaurant, book in advance as well. (Even if you book in advance, still you got to reach early).
Recently discovered that they serve draught beer as well!

a plus
saffron is always a treat. these are the caterers that also did my sister's wedding reception and will be doing mine as well.....its been two years since her reception but people still remember the food....amazing roghan ghosht (lamb almost falling off the bone), fabulous chicken peshawari, finger licking good starters (corn cheese balls and fish fingers with tartare sauce)...if i do go here, try the buffet which is affordable and has a good spread or u could always go for ala carte and dont forget to try the fried fish amritsari.

A zero on Hospitality and Service
The catering staff lack the common sense of hospitality. The staff started eating from buffet counters when some of us had not even started the main course. Half of the food was finished and buffet stoves were being removed when we had not even seen main course. Some of the staff was already occupying dining area and were talking very loudly. All in all, the restaurant can be rated 1 on 5 in hospitality. Whatever we had in our buffet was not even warm enough.
With family, i would never prefer Saffron eatery for buffet.

Bliss restobar of Saffron is pathetic !!!!
It was sheer waste of Sunday evening !!
the mutton starter which we ordered from the happy hours menu had merely 3 pieces of mutton with a tastless sauce which they claimed to be peanut butter and was extremely overpriced at Rs. 475/ -
We requested the head steward to suggest items which were stir fried or baked. But it turn out to be disappointing, head steward suggested some twin paneer starter as spicy & non fried one which we were keen on trying but it turned out to be totally opposite.it was deep fried and bland !!!!
Also we order for veg roll which the waiter claimed to have vegetable stuffing in roomali roti also turned out to be fried.
At this point of time, I couldnt control my agitation & asked them to cancel the order as I din't see any point in argueing further.
Waiter took back the order & when we called out the head steward repeatedly who sugegsted all of it turned deaf ears, he turned up pnly after 25 min that too after calling for him thrice
Repeatedly telling them that we were not looking at deep fried items but just baked or stir fried starters.
They were repeatedly suggesting some items which turned out to be exactly what we were not looking at.......shere waste of money !!!

Good Food, Great Ambience...
I went there with my team of 10 and we had a great time. The food was good(Veg Soup, Panner tikka, Paneer dry roll,Chicken Tikka & Chicken Koliwada for starters with a great varieties of salads, 2 Veg & 2 Non-veg Main course item, 2 Sweets, Pasta Counter(really amazing), Chinese(Hakka Noodles & Aroma Tirangi Rice and finally Ice cream & Cake for desserts. Couldn't ask for more@275. The Ambience was great with good low music. The only concern was that the food was not hot and we had to request twice to serve hot food otherwise the service was excellent. Overall a good place. Definitely recommended.
cockroach in my biryani....
i have been ordering food from this place for almost three years no complaints..v gud food especially the pasta n chkn thai red curry...but last time whn i ordered biryani there was a cockroach in it....whn i called to complain the manager offered to send another biryani, which accd to me was not a very intelligent solution coz we all knw biryanis r not made to order so the chance of more biryani coming from the same cokroach infested bucket were quite high, not to mention i hv been put off biryani for 4 months now..he also offered to send something else but i was in no mood to eat anything else....i guess this is one of the situations wherer managers cant help it no matter wht they do.... but i wud hv liked a refund for sure(not becoz 200 bucks wud hv made it ok for me but i wud hv thought ok the restaurant is taking onus and r moral enough to do smthing to retain a regular customer) which he refused...R U KIDDING me... sad!!!

Perfect for dining with your family.
Prima facie good food, ambience and service for a family outing. Starters are slightly high priced but the main courses are quite well priced & economic. The quantity of food is sufficient for 3 moderate eaters. The Corn, Spinach, Basil soup is brilliant. A fantastic blend of flavors perfectly done is a must have for all soup lovers. In the starters for spice loving eaters there is a plethora of varieties ranging from Tandoori, Chinese, Mexican, Indian & Thai food. Varieties in main courses as well. The generous serving of mutton Biryani suffices two easily. The butter chicken is creamy and very well made. Good variety of moderately priced cocktails & mocktails. The service is good & prompt. The waiting time is literally nil. The ambience is good and very pleasant with light good music being played in the background. Saffron provides a good choice of pastries ranging from brownies & cakes. A three course meal (soup,starter,main course) for a family of four would cost you Rs. 1500 (VAT incl). Cost of approx.Rs.350 per person for a three course meal with 3 star facility is quite affordable.

Not a bad deal
Buffet for 225 is one of the cheapest deal I have come across and they do not offer this by cutting back on no of items. Though it wont be a lavish spread but its so much that you can taste each and everything heartily unlike others where there are so many items that sometimes you forget what you have tasted and what you have not. If you have ladies for company you get value for money given their small appetite. So we have starters, soup (one), aloo chaat, raita, hara bhara kebab, cheese balls and few more. Main course will have 3-4 veg sabji, two kind of rice followed by three different kind of desserts like halwa, jalebi, pastries and one scoop of ice cream served at your table. They serve non veg items too. Its a very popular restaurant for business lunch and usually its beaming with people. With such a reasonable pricing and an ok taste not a bad place to visit.

buffet@199 all worth it...DO TRY IT...
Saffron is 1 place to actually go and try out different variety of foods... the best part is the price at which they provide soo many varieties... starting with the starters it was the best it had 3 n-veg starters and 2 veg starters... the main course did not matter much coz the starters made for the main course... The main course had a lot of variety i think no 1 else can provide such gr8 food at such a reasonable price... The deserts were the best of all... the food was the best so what else matters @ 199... I suggest dont miss it have a try.. ITS WORTH IT.....
Nice Place to Have meal

Bad Points
- Air conditioning was not good
- Quite conjusted
Overall: Nice option for all who work nearby SEEPZ.

After a poor review 3 months back, I dared to visit this place a day after Christmas for their lunch buffet. And all I can say is that a lot has changed!
Food served was tasty & fresh, straight from the kitchen (and not the refrigerator). This has always been the case, especially with starters, where fresh batches are added. Its OK to wait for a minute than eat hours stale food.
Junglee Chicken salad and the non-veg main course tasted great with fresh naan/rotis. Veg main course was decent; the Paneer gravy tasted terrible but Paneer was very fresh.
The continental menu was great: Indonesian Fried Rice & Veg Florentine. However, this time the gravy was tasty but Paneer was very hard. The only complaint I still have with this is that I've never got to eat Mexican or Arabic :(
There were 4 deserts: Gulab Jamun, Jalebi, Ice-cream and Chocoloate Crunchy - that was out of the world.
The service was prompt right from the reception to check-out. Except for the fact that they always hurry up with the bill, rather unasked for! Nobody wants the check :) but they should at least wait till someone calls for it, or starts walking out ;-)
Do check out the menu before going.

Not worth it
Ambience was OK and food too was just about OK but the service was bad. The waiters were mighty rushed up to collect my plate even when my friends were still eating. Told them not to do that once but the second time I was in no mood to teach them manners. Left a bad taste as it wasn't even packed or such. I won't venture there again.

Longest Meal ever!
Nono...dont misunderstand the title. It was a long dinner but not because the food was too much to finish. Every course took shockingly long to arrive. Why else would we spend 3 and half hours at a restaurant, willing to fulfill our dinner appetite with breakfast!
Anyway, to start with, we ordered one round of drinks (cocktails & mocktails) which were served promptly. They were accompanied by the starters we had ordered, which were served around 20mins after the drinks, which is acceptable. The bbq chicken was really good, as were the falafels and veg platter.
We ordered main course immediately so that not too much time would be wasted while shifting to it from appetizers. We ordered an Italian chicken dish (I forget the name...but we thought it was pasta but didnt turn out to be!), chicken Thy-phy with Thai herbed rice and a Chinese chicken dish. Veggies ordered stuffed capsicum and veg milli jhuli. This is when the fun began. The starters ended, glasses emptied, waiters kept hovering around, but there was no sign of our main course. You know how after you have appetizers, the initial hunger goes off. Well, the hunger went off and came back and was subjected to no food, and hence went off again! The main guy though, surprisingly, kept ensuring thats the drinkers had their glasses full. Obviously, since the food hadnt arrived, people kept refilling their drinks unwillingly, but the food just did not arrive! Finally, after around an hour, the main course arrived. Alas, such a waste. The food was cold. Not warm, absolutely Cold! When pointed out, the head waiter just smiled and didnt seem to think it mattered. He even reassured us saying that the food had been kept in the hot case. I wonder why it wasnt just served given that we had inquired about it more than 4-5 times. The veg milly jhuli was extremely sad! The chicken dishes were good but would have been better had they been warm.
We even decided to risk it and order desserts out of their pathetic list of 3-4 options. They have ice cream, kulfi, gulab jamuns and sizzling brownie, which we were told, was not available. So we settled for ice cream which again took around 20mins to arrive. Maybe they have a ice cream machine where they actually prepare it. Authentic! :P
And then at last, we asked for the bill, which took 20mins to arrive and then again 20mins for the card to be swiped. I really really wonder what they do!
What amused me was the attitude of the waited. Whenever we asked about the dishes, he asked the drinkers if they wanted their glasses refilled! Good business!
Ambiance: 3/5
Food: 3/5 (Cold!)
Service: 0.00000001/5
And thats all. The end to a place which could have been so much better! What a waste!

i have been for buffet lunch at many restaurant but saffron is something different from others good value for money, i dont know how they manage this quality in such a small amount,i have been on monday then too i was waiting for 10 min. i was about to leave but the staff who attended me was so courteous that i could not leave.
The food was really tasty,if u want to have( Thai curry, golden fried prawns,shahi tukda,chocolate crunchy it is always saffron ,the service was a bit slow but understandable with the quality and crowd.

Its Going Down mate!!!
I have been the first one to recommend this place and have been keeping tab on the development for quite some time. The last time we went, they had arranged the buffet in a small resto-bar on the first floor (Bliss I guess). The food was ice-cold - including the dal & the gulab jamuns.
Moreover, we have checked the menu several times, awaiting mexican or italian cuisine, but the menu hardly seems to be changing. Whenever you call them, we will be serving Rogan Ghost, Chicken tikka, Paneer Fingers, Chicken 65, Three Treasure Rice,.... No pasta, no nachos, no middle-eastern cuisine (although they serve it a-la-carte)
I hope someone is taking care of the complaints below...

Disaster at Saffron
Ok. I went to this place considering all the reviews that I read and since its one of the places I haven't been around powai(near Matoshree), I thought it would be exciting to try the 199 buffet. But the experience turned out to be of a mixed one.
To start with the positives, the food is good with a great variety of dishes and desserts at worth Rs. 199. The ambience of the place is also good. The dessert especially the 'Fruit Cream' was awesome. Not too sweet and full of whipped cream. Good for those who do not like sweet desserts. The Gulab Jamun with Boondi was also good. They had a great variety of starters especially Veg. The Non Veg was ok, not that great (They could have made it better).
Now to the negatives. The worst part of the meal was that in the Bhindi sabzi we found a caterpillar in our plate (After half the dish was already consumed). We do not know how many would have been as it was very difficult to identify, but we managed to see one. Since all the tables were occupied, (we had already booked our tables earlier), the place appeared to be very crowded and conjusted. Inorder to take the servings we had to stand in a long line and it appeared as if we are come for a wedding and everyone is rushing as if the food will get over (to avoid the long line). The organization of the entire area was in a mess as there was no place to even walk properly and there were people actually shoving you while you are serving yourself due to lack of place (I dont blame this people, they cudn't help it). The salads were kept just next to the door, thus inviting dust to settle in them, which is a very bad location to keep any food. The waiters were unable to keep up with the crowd and this resulted in a lot of empty food vessels.
Overall, I did not quite enjoy it and I personally feel that if we can put in a bit more money there are better places that we can enjoy buffets.

I Love This Place
I am a total Food Lover & That is Why I am a Big Fan of the Rs 199 Buffet This Restaurant Offers. The Variety offered is Very Good & The food itself is Excellent. The Review Below Me says That a Cockroach was found in a particular Dish, However I find that extremely Hard to Believe Because I am Frequently Visiting this place from a very long time & Never have I heard anything of this sort ever occuring. Infact I have found this particular Restaurant to be Extremely Hygienic & Clean. I rate This Restaurant Very Good on Hygiene & Cleanliness. The Pricing is Very Reasonable. The service is Polite & Efficient. I also Find the Parking Facilities very Good. All in all a Very Good Restaurant.
All of you may like it
But when i had gone there i found a cockroach in my dal tadka. It looked like it was a peice of fried onions but fortunately i had just two morsels of my rice when i don't know why i tried to check out diz piece of onion and it was a cockroach ( 3/4 inch long, 2mm wide) well cooked which anyone would pass off as onion.
After that i have never gone there nor would recommend anyone to do so without inspecting their hygiene factor.
I sure can live without eating in this restaurant.
God Bless each one of you who reccomends this place and anyone else who wish to dine here.
Its better you eat at a streetside dhaba

Very neat place
Went to place last night with 4 of my other friends. Every review outhere soeacks about this buffet which applies only for lunch. I happened to be here for dinner.
Lets begin with the positives of this place. We ordered for Chicken achari kebab which was very well done, wit well marinated succulent pieces of chicken & fish fingers were just d normal, nothing fancy bout it. . Wanted to call for roast lamb in wine sauce, but d waiter reverted saying they dont keep any lamb dishes anymore. in the mocktails one of my friends ordered a BLUSHING ANGEL. I had reservations bout it initially coz the explanation stated black current with orange & topped with jeera, but it was lovely. the cocktails ordered on d table were PASSION (which is 90% similar to the Jamaican Jungle from Steak House) I ordered for a Lass. All drinks very well made. One of my friends ordered for a BEJING CHICKEN SOUP. It was strong, loadsa chicken & herbs. Was a perfect appetizer... The main course ordered was BURNT CHILLY GARLIC CHICKEN NOODLES, chicken in black pepper sauce & Pasta in Arabiata sauce. The noodles were fire, just so well done that in spite of sniffing we finished it all, even though we kept wondering bout running to d loo d next morning.. but we din mind it. The pasta came along with mashed potato n awesome garlic toast. so it was perfect to kill the spice n heat created in d body by the chilly garlic... The black pepper chicken was yummy as well. Was jus hoping it wud'nt have come in the consistency of the Manchurian types. we had no place left for desserts, even though i really wanted to have the sizzling chocolate. ..
The damages for all of this came to about 1820/- no complaints besides the fact that the waiter took enormous time to get us everything. Even to locate n call for the waiters was quite a bit of a task n all this despite being a weekday & the restaurant having only 2 other groups besides us.
in totality.. id give it a 4/5 for the food & 2/5 for service & 4/5 for the ambiance. but its a definitely worth one time goer kinda place. u wont regret it

Great Buffet
Since I'm a regular, I tried their buffet yesterday. The biggest attraction is that it's at Rs. 199 (plus additional taxes). Now I'm not gonna get into details, because somebody has already done that in a review here - http://mumbai.burrp.com/establishment/review/axq_bri .
The thing about their buffet is that even though it looks like a small spread, it is the right amount of food that you'll need to eat. They have a good mix of veg and non veg. Their chicken was so tender, we couldn't stop raving about it. In fact, this was the first time I really enjoyed their Indian food! It might have to do with a recent change in chef - a Mr. Tambe coming in.
The mutton curry was also well cooked, which is essential for an Indian preparation. However, both non-veg starters were chicken and they categorically do not serve sea food in their buffet.
What they don't tell you, and you should ask for it if you are a wine lover - is that at Rs 299 + taxes, you get an additional 2 glasses of wine with the buffet. At Rs 399 + taxes, you get an unlimited supply of wine with the buffet. They serve Chantilli Cabernet Sauvignon, both red and white. I don't particularly like this wine, so I went for the 199 buffet. But if you're a fan, then you're in luck!

just can't think beyond....
To start with, I'll second alpana and prasad on their reviews.... every cent of their word is perfect..
Saffron has been my social circle's fav joint, first it is the best eatery closest to my place, second the variety in continental cuisine they offer.
Our fav is Thai green curry, Mexican salad, sizzling brownie (hot fav for all the ladies in house), fungie parichi (pardon for the spelling), all of Mexican, American salad, and the list goes on...we usually mix n match but the above list comes out to be the most consistent in last 4 years if not more :-).
Not been to the buffet, but heard a lot about it, need to try it someday with bottomless wine ;-)
Now, the not so good part, I never found any Indian dish that match up the continental ones hence would not recommend if you are going there to have indian cuisine, there are better places than saffron like Happy Singh, Urban Tadka, Timbaktoo, Yello chillie etc...
To end, Saffron also respect and go the extra step in playing a theme song if it is ur birthday/anniversary and usually the on the house pastry comes with a litted candle :-)
Ambiance, is perfect, sitting is comfortable be it a couple, 4 or group of 20 all accommodate nicely with enough distance not to bother the others. Though, weekends dinner may become noisy when there are large groups of youngster. So far the crowd I've noticed is primarily family, on occasions dating couples, office groups, large family groups ...overall all kind of people/group like this place and hence are often seen around.
I highly recommend a visit to this place, though a bit off for most of the andheri (e) resident, but who said good things come easy.

Go for Italian, Lebanese and Continental
I am a regular to Saffron as it is the closest multi-cuisine restaurant to my house! The quality of their ala carte has been deteriorating by the year. Their Lebanese/Arabian, Italian and Continental cuisines are still good, but I'm not a big fan of their Indian and Chinese cuisines. The Indian and Chinese here is very very regular and not worth the prices.
Also, when they just started out, they served boti mutton kababs (or pieces of mutton), whereas now they only serve the minced mutton kababs. Now I love my botis and mincing mutton just takes away half the taste. But, well, they've stopped, and i'm hugely disappointed.
For starters, I would recommend the Shish Taowk and if you don't mind eating a slightly sweet dish, try the Chicken Satay. For the main course, I would recommend the Supreme Royal Special, the Lamb Hungarian Goulash, Scallops of Fish (if you like bland), and absolutely anything from their Italian section. And you can end with a Sizzling Ice-cream. Not very innovative, but you just can't go wrong with it!
So if you're close to the Jogeshwari Vikhroli Link road, make a trip. It's worth it.

Buffet @ 199
The first review demands some introduction of the place:
'Saffron Eatery & Bar', specializes in a variety of cuisines including Thai, Chinese & Mexican, with their kitchen (probably) managed by Maharaja Essence that caters to other restaurants in the suburb. Its located inside the Supremo Activity Centre that is adjacent to the Matoshree Sports Club operated by BMC. The place has great ambience, by the large tables and sofas make it uncomfortable for a buffet as people usually keep moving. Apart from the buffet at 199*, they also offer lunch with two glasses and unlimited Chantilli (from Chateau Indage) at 299 or 399 respectively.
The introductory 5 course buffet featured the following:
Soup: 1 Veg
Delicious piping hot Thai soup
Salads: 4 Veg / 2 Non-Veg (Egg, Chicken)
Nothing that deserves mention
Appetizers: 2 Veg / 2 Non-Veg
Unfortunately both the veg starters were deep fried, one could have been roasted or grilled. Both non-veg starters were chicken: one kebab and Thai fried chicken which everyone loved
Main Course: 2 Veg / 2 Non-Veg
Paneer and Mix veg for the vegetarians were decent. There was mixed opinion about the Chicken & Mutton gravies, cooked in curd & palak respectively.
Dessert: 3
The gulab jamun was beyond words and nice Fruit cream. Slightly disappointing though was the ice-cream, served in strawberry flavor and limited to a single scoop.
All-in-all, decent variety and good value for money at Rs.223!

After starring in six seasons of the hit series "The Hills," Audrina Patridge has joined the ranks of young Hollywood as one of the most sought-after and talked about talents on television. Patridge, who aspired to become an actress from a very early age, has been honing her skills with well-regarded coaches and private acting classes. She made her debut on the big screen last fall in the thriller "Sorority Row." Other film credits include the action-adventure film "Into the Blue 2" and "Honey 2." Patridge has also tested her hand at comedy, appearing on an episode of the sitcom "Do Not Disturb" and in a skit for "MAD TV." Last summer, Patridge made headlines steaming up TV screens in a commercial for Carl's Jr. This July, she became the latest Bongo girl, shooting the fall advertising campaign with famed photographer Tony Duran.
Kurt Warner
Kurt Warner is the first quarterback to participate in "Dancing With the Stars." In 1999, he emerged from obscurity to lead the St. Louis Rams to a victory in Super Bowl XXXIV. That same year, Warner was named the NFL and Super Bowl Most Valuable Player. As the ringleader of the Greatest Show on Turf, he led the Rams to two additional playoff appearances, including another Super Bowl, and received Pro Bowl honors for three consecutive years (1999-2001). He also earned his second NFL MVP in 2001. Injuries led Warner to move from the Rams to the Giants, and finally the Arizona Cardinals in 2005. In 2007, he led the Cardinals to their first Super Bowl berth, was voted to his fourth Pro Bowl and surpassed several Cardinals' franchise records, including touchdowns, attempts, completions, completion percentage and passer rating. Warner's gridiron accomplishments pale in comparison to the dedication he devotes to the community. In 2001, Kurt and his wife Brenda established the First Things First Foundation, a nonprofit public charity dedicated to affecting lives by promoting Christian values, sharing experiences and providing opportunities to encourage everyone that all things are possible when people seek to put first things first. Warner was born and raised in Iowa and played college football at the University of Northern Iowa. He lives in Arizona with his wife Brenda and seven children.

: December 28, 2012 : Updated: December 28, 2012 8:38pm
Oregon State has had about a quarter as many first-team All-Americans as Texas, but that doesn't mean its all-time team lacks quality. The 1962 Heisman Trophy winner, Terry Baker, still graces the inside cover the team's media guide, and this team is stout enough that it leaves out future Pro Bowl participants RB Paul Lowe, WR Bob Grim, WR Chad Johnson and WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh.

Rock of Ages
Despite my best efforts not to, I enjoyed the hell out of it.
I took notes, let me find them in one of my notebooks.
Crap? Doublepostsorry, this Frankensite needs so much work.
"Salesman" (1969 Documentary about door-to-door Bible salesmen).
The levels of truth revealed make it the scariest movie I have watched.
I am mid-way through watching the documentary Hot Coffee. It's interesting. And anyone who thinks the lady with the McD's hot coffee got rich over nothing....watch it. It shows how bad her burns were. But, the documentary isn't just about her.
Snow White and the Huntsman. Honestly, I expected a bit more of this movie, but still I cannot say it was bad. It was okay. A good old fairy-tale. The actors were also good, not brilliant, maybe, but good.
saw Rock of Ages last night. Thought it was actually really good. Even Tom Cruise was more watchable than I anticipated.
J. Edgar - A little slow but a good portrait of a fascinating, strange & scary guy. Leo is great as J. Edgar.
The Pat Tillman Story and Act of Valor. I highly recommend both of these movies both of them were amazing!
The Hangover 2. Not bad, but I highly recommend seeing the first one, otherwise you'll be sooo lost. Der herf.

Ryan Gosling is just great. Great! He has an interview in New York Magazine, which contains this gem of a quote about Shel Silverstein's incredibly depressing children's book, The Giving Tree:
That book is so f**ked up; that story's the worst. I mean, at the end the tree is a stump and the old guy just sitting on him; he's just used him to death, and you're supposed to want to be the tree? F**k you. You be the tree. I don't want to be the tree.
I don't want to be the tree either! We should probably be together, Ryan Gosling.
My memory is hazy of the book, but basically the tree was in love with the boy and their relationship continues until he's an old man? She (or he, whatevs, it's a tree) loved him so much that she gave all of herself to him and he was an ungrateful bastard? Right? I forget. I don't remember wanting to be the tree or being told that I should want to be the tree. Then again, I was young. Perhaps the nuance escaped me. I just remember being super depressed after reading it. Basically, I hear you Gosling. Loud and clear. We should probably form a book club or something.

POTTERSVILLE An auction conducted Saturday June 29 by a community group sponsoring North Warren's bicentennial celebration yielded a lot of bargains while it raised $2,900 for the upcoming event.
Nearly 100 people participated in the bidding on items that ranged from high-quality furniture to a garden rototiller to antique tools and a pool table.
Yes, there was a kitchen sink — it was stainless steel, with faucets, and it prompted a bid of $20, auction organizer Jan Duell of Brant Lake said.
"We auctioned off milk cans to silverware, you name it," she said, noting that local residents donating items for the cause were quite generous. "We had a super time."
Speaking of generous, one family with a camp in the area donated a boat with inboard motor and trailer — in great shape — for the auction. This grouping went for a mere $300, Duell said.
"The family said take it away and love it," she said. "It was worth a couple of 'thou' — so someone got an incredible bargain."
There were a total of 250 items or box-lots up for bid in the auction, which lasted for two and a half hours. It was conducted at the old Glendale property, the former Pottersville fairgrounds — the site of where the North Warren communities' celebration of Warren County's bicentennial is to be held Saturday Aug. 24.
That day-long event is to include historical exhibits, entertainment, vendors, children's activities, group publicist Margaret Holmes said.
"There are plans for a four-division parade, more than 60 exhibits, music all day long, and a huge fireworks show," she said. "It will be a big deal."
Plans call for the parade to feature antique cars showcasing the legacy of rum-runners in the region during Prohibition.
In addition to the auction last Saturday, the North Warren bicentennial group's fundraisers so far this year have included several pasta dinners, the "Black Fly Barbecue,' and an ice cream social, Duell said.

Grey's Anatomy
Grey's Anatomy Season 9 Spoilers: Is Meredith Selling Her House? Is Derek?
With all of the big spoilers coming out about Grey's Anatomy Season 9, it's easy to forget that Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey) are supposed to be packing their bags for Boston. There are a lot of reasons they might end up staying in Seattle, but a recent spoiler from William Keck of TVGuide suggests that there could be some real estate shuffling going on — for MerDer, or maybe for someone else.
Read spoilers at your own risk! For more on Wetpaint Entertainment's philosophy on spoilers, click here.
"#greysanstomy casting a perky realtor woman for ep 3," Keck tweeted recently. "Is Meredith selling her house?"
It seems like Grey's Anatomy wouldn't be Grey's Anatomy with Meredith's house, but we can see why this is the theory Keck jumped to. After all, it's perfectly logical. If Meredith leaves for Boston, she'll need to sell the house — since she can't just pass it on to Lexie (Chyler Leigh) (*tears*). And even if she stays, she'll want to move into the MerDer dream house, which, again, means she'd have to sell her house.
On the other hand, as much as we hate to think about it, maybe the realtor is for the dream house. If Mer and Der decide to follow through with the Boston plan, they might need to sell. Derek said he was going to give the house to Mark (Eric Dane), but obviously that won't be an option. Hey, maybe they won't be able to go through with it, and that's why they'll decide to stay!
Alternatively, maybe the realtor isn't for Meredith or Derek at all. Perhaps one of the other docs is buying realty. Or maybe this is all a mislead, and the perky realtor is actually the patient of the week.
What do you think this spoiler means? Let us know in the comments below.
Grey's Anatomy Season 9 will premiere on Thursday, September 27 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Brendan Rodgers outlined why he expects new signing Daniel Sturridge to thrive at Liverpool after watching his team dismantle Sunderland 3-0 at Anfield.
The striker put pen to paper on a long-term deal with the Reds after completing a transfer from Chelsea earlier on Wednesday afternoon.
Sturridge took his place in the Anfield directors' box to watch Raheem Sterling add to a Luis Suarez brace to secure a comprehensive win for Liverpool - and Rodgers is now looking forward to seeing our new No.15 take his place in the team.
The boss told his post-match press conference: "He's a player that I have known since he was about 12 years of age. I've seen him come through the various clubs. He made his name as a youngster at Manchester City and was one of the top young strikers in European football.
"He made a move [to Chelsea] and it's difficult when you make a move as a young player.
"He's a goalscorer and the only spell he's really had that was at Bolton, but when he's played games, he's got goals.
"He gives us power, presence and mobility at the top of the field - and I think the biggest thing is hunger.
"We're bringing in a player who knows he has to perform if he wants to be at one of the biggest clubs in the world. It's probably his last chance, and that was probably one of the reasons as well.
"He's got qualities, but if he wants to stay at the big level then this is probably his last chance. I've got every faith over his time here he'll prove a real hit and he gives us another attacking threat at the top end of the field."
While Suarez's second two-goal salvo and outstanding performance in four days will undoubtedly grab the headlines, Rodgers was eager to highlight an impeccable display from Steven Gerrard.
The captain claimed two assists for Suarez's goals - including a stunning 50-yard pass for the second - and the manager is relishing the prospect of Sturridge learning from his peers, such as the Reds No.8.
"Daniel will learn off the top players that are here," said Rodgers. "He's coming in to work with the England captain, who I've got to say over the four games he's played over this period, people have talked about Steven Gerrard not being fit - the guy has been absolutely phenomenal.
"You see his running there at the end and that pass...you won't see a better pass than that this season. It was an absolutely incredible performance by him.
"Daniel is going to learn from everyone, really. He's coming into a club with values and ethics that have been retained for over many, many years. He'll not learn only about football, he'll learn about being a top human being."
On the field, Rodgers was left elated by the effort and application of his side, who made it nine points from a possible 12 over the Festive period with another resounding victory.
He said: "You have got to give massive credit to the players. The effort they put into the game tonight, as well as the quality, was phenomenal.
"It was the fourth game [over the Festive period]. You look throughout the country and there are a lot of tired players and performers having had to play four games in such a short period, but you look at the intensity and conditioning of our players tonight and the work they put into the game, married with the quality, was fantastic.
"Credit to Sunderland. They're a good side and have had some good results recently. Under Martin [O'Neill] they're very competitive and tough to beat, but I thought our superiority in the game was good and I'm very, very pleased."
The victory moved Liverpool into eighth in the Barclays Premier League table and Rodgers feels there have been genuine indications in recent weeks that his football philosophies are really being embraced by the squad.
He added: "We had a similar performance against QPR, where we were terrific. Of course you'd want 12, but nine points out of 12 over a really busy period, we'd have probably taken that.
"We were disappointed with the Stoke performance. We let everyone down - the supporters and ourselves - that night. But the reaction from that - six goals, two clean sheets and two outstanding performances. That shows you the type we have here.
"Sometimes you only get credit when you win. For us, we've drawn a lot of games and haven't quite got the credit because we haven't won the game, but these players over the course of the season have done very, very well and haven't got the points total we deserve.
"But I believe in the second half of the season we'll be able to up the tempo and we can kick on. You see the nature of our game now - our pressing, the intensity, our pressure, the superiority we're gaining in midfield in order to control games and creating many chances - we had 29 shots tonight.
"It's about consistency and hopefully we can get that over the coming months and years."
Rodgers' final word on a highly satisfactory day for Liverpool went to Suarez.
The Uruguay striker's latest brace took his tally for the season so far to 18 - one more than his entire total for 2011-12 - and the manager feels the No.7 is flourishing in the current system.
Rodgers explained: "I was talking to Harry Redknapp the morning after the game at the weekend, and we were saying Suarez is a Messi-type character.
"At the beginning of the season when I was giving him a wee breather, he didn't want it. For me, he's a player that has to play two or three times a week to be at the top of his game - one game a week is no good for him. He needs to be playing and you see the response you get from him. His work has never dropped, he's a real team player, he trains every day, he's never in the treatment room and then he goes out and performs.
"I think with the fluidity of the team, as the ball moves he gets the chance to find the spaces. If he's playing in a style that's direct, he doesn't get the chance to move. But in a structure where the ball is moving, his cleverness and intelligence finds the space.
"You can see he is thriving in the team at the moment. He signed a new deal in the summer and it'll be fantastic to see him develop because I still think there's a long way to go in his development."

Computer simulation has been a valuable tool in the physical, biological and social sciences for the last several decades. It has come to be regarded as yet another mode of scientific investigation accompanying theoretical analysis and experimentation. Yet validation and verification of simulation results have continued to be serious concerns. In some cases validation is relatively straightforward: run the simulation and compare the results against independent measured data. In other circumstances things are not so simple. A simulation of the interior of a star might be evaluated for consistency via measurements of secondary stellar characteristics, but it may be essentially impossible to confirm the details. Questions of validation and verification become even stickier when simulations are used to inform public policy. Of particular concern in the current book is the role of simulation in developing public policy for global climate change.
This is the second edition of a book originally published in 2006; some errors have been corrected and the sections on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have been expanded and revised. Unfortunately the book still has the appearance and style of a lightly edited doctoral dissertation.
The book is divided into two parts. The first part addresses simulation practice and its relationship to public policy in a broad context. The second focuses on global climate change. Of particular concern throughout is the assessment of uncertainty of simulation results. For the author, analysis of uncertainty is not a purely technical problem. Other uncertainties arise in the ways in which the problem is posed, models are structured, and expert judgments are made. The book is called a "philosophical study" because it explores the epistemological dimensions of scientific practice as well as the social and political aspects.
The first part of the book is broad and general, full of general guidelines and principles, and short on detail. Much of what is here is not illuminating and frankly makes for rather dull reading. In the second part, especially Chapters 5 and 6, the author applies his methodology to global climate simulation. Although the level of detail is higher here, it is still disappointingly low as is the overall technical content. It is understandable that the author's interests are broader than the purely technical. (He expresses a good deal of concern, for example, about ad hoc modifications to models that may introduce biases.) Yet the technical details matter a great deal, and they tend to fade into a background of less than useful generalities.
Bill Satzer (firstname.lastname@example.com) is a senior intellectual property scientist at 3M Company, having previously been a lab manager at 3M for composites and electromagnetic materials. His training is in dynamical systems and particularly celestial mechanics; his current interests are broadly in applied mathematics and the teaching of mathematics.

Super easy beet salad
By Tali Simon | September 7, 2011
I definitely like to potchke. Latkes that call for six different vegetables instead of one? I'm on it. Making two different batters for one cookie? I'm there. And I know that's nothing compared to what the professionals do.
But as much as I enjoy puttering around in the kitchen, I also appreciate the simple, no-fuss recipes. This beet salad is one of them.
If you don't mind dealing with fresh parsley (I'm telling you, it's worth it!), the ingredient list is no big deal. The directions are also really simple, and since it's meant to be served cold, you can throw this together Friday morning and not give it another thought until you take it out of the fridge right before lunch the next day.
It also happens to be gorgeous. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but…come on. Beets have this crazy purple color by nature! And fresh parsley is so green! They look so good together! (Is anyone with me on this?)
So. This salad is healthy, pretty, easy to prepare, and can be served cold. Also, it's cheap. Yep, rave reviews all around.
Found the recipe online…somewhere. Apologies to my anonymous source.
- 3-4 beets
- 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
- juice of one lemon
- a few shakes of salad vinegar (I use Heinz)
- salt, to taste
- large handful of fresh parsley, chopped
1. Place beets in a large pot and cover with water by one inch. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook, covered, for 1 hour, or until a knife easily passes through the largest beet. Add water from time to time as needed.
2. Allow beets to cool to the touch, then remove skins with your fingers under running water. They should rub off without too much effort. Chop beets into bite-sized pieces.
3. Toss with garlic (it'll turn pink), lemon juice, salad vinegar, salt, and parsley. Refrigerate one hour (or overnight) before serving.

OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA — Crush the seed, put steam to it, and make oil.
Cottonseed oil.
That's the short version of a long story that sits on 25 acres of what is now prime real estate in Oklahoma City, and where Austin Rose now runs the Producers Co-perative Oil Mill.
It's been in business at this location since 1944.
"There was nothing around," says Rose of his plant's origins. "When it was built it was probably on the outer edges of Oklahoma City."
Stop the presses for a moment and go back in time.
Long before the 1980's that date one picture on the office walls, and the mid-1960's that date another picture of downtown on another office wall.
You can go back a whole century on the north bank of the Canadian River (now the Oklahoma River) and see cotton gins on the property.
Rose says, "Oklahoma City was probably a central location for all the cotton production at that time."
Of course, change is the watch word in this new era for Oklahoma City.
The Producers Co-Op mill is now the last hold out of an old industrial age for its neighborhood.
85 workers at the plant were wrapping up the Canola crop while we were there.
They make oil products from those seeds too.
Rose chuckles at any idea that his plant has taken on a kind of 'Wonka's Chocolate Factory' identity to outsiders.
Doors closed.
Mysterious machines whirring away.
It's the co-op's surroundings that have changed.
"We look out the front gate and we're in the middle of downtown Oklahoma City and Bricktown," says Rose.
When they started work in 1944 the co-op could process 150 tons of seed per day.
Now they can process 1000 tons per day.
The people who work here like where they are.
Producers Co-op had plans to move up to a year ago but those plans fell through.
After 70 years they're comfortable, even as the city changes around them.

I know it's an old post, but it's a misinformed old post that people can still see, so.......
"Second, there are many, many little things that for a MB are un acceptable like, front defroster only has one setting, which is high, then you need to play the on/off game with it when the windows fog up"
If you had read your owners manual you would have found that is the "rapid defrost" setting. It gives you max temp, max air and a/c compressor (to dry the air) all with one button. If you just turn the far right dial (the nozzle adjust) to the 12 o'clock position, the automatic temperature and fan stay where it's set, it just changes where the air goes.

...a couple staffers had been armed?
Views: 8448
Replies are closed for this discussion.
"Even if a case could be made that this killer MIGHT have been brought down before he killed all those children, which is highly doubtful..."
What's doubtful about it. His spree was 10 minutes long. Even if an armed guard or teacher had found him after 5 minutes, he might have killed half as many kids. Where is YOUR logic that it's doubtful?
Dale, Dale, Dale....on matters of gun control we are definitely at odds. Your vision of the American gun owner being some sort of John Wayne macho type excreting way too much testosterone simply doesn't hold up to scrutiny. Ninety-nine percent of gun owners in America are responsible law abiding citizens who have no axe to grind. It is blatantly unfair to try to and make myself and others out to be something we are not. The weapon of choice is really irrelevant. People who become psychopathic killers will use whatever is available, gun or not.
I've thought about this for a while now and I think they should look at the air marshal program for guidance. Security that is hidden is harder to anticipate or neutralize.
As I mentioned elsewhere, they could be teachers or they could appear to be adult volunteers. They needn't be obvious cops but plain clothed instead.
Hmmm... I posted a response to this and cannot find it... so if I seem to be repeating myself that's why.
The logic behind concealed carry programs is precisely that not knowing who the armed people are is a deterrent. They do seem to have reduced (rather than increased) crime somewhat, contrary to the hysterical predictions of shootings occurring during disputes over parking lots or for someone writing a check in the express checkout.
We should take time to be thankful for the general status of civility of the people around us. With the level of knowledge and expertise, these shootings/acts of violence could be more common, and of greater ugliness. The majority of us never rise to the occasion of a monsterous act. Noticing that the shooters are often times young, I do wonder if there could be a growing frequency.
A friend of mine just sent me this to my email. While she did not write it, I think it's a great response to the recent shootings.
"You want to know why. This may sound cynical, but here's why.
It's because of the way the media reports it. Flip on the news and watch how we treat the Batman theater shooter and the Oregon mall shooter like celebrities. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris are household names, but do you know the name of a single victim of Columbine? Disturbed people who would otherwise just off themselves in their basements see the news and want to top it by doing something worse, and going out in a memorable way. Why a grade school? Why children? Because he'll be remembered as a horrible monster, instead of a sad nobody.
CNN's article says that if the body count "holds up", this will rank as the second deadliest shooting behind Virginia Tech, as if statistics somehow make one shooting worse than another. Then they post a video interview of third-graders for all the details of what they saw and heard while the shootings were happening. Fox News has plastered the killer's face on all their reports for hours. Any articles or news stories yet that focus on the victims and ignore the killer's identity? None that I've seen yet. Because they don't sell. So congratulations, sensationalist media, you've just lit the fire for someone to top this and knock off a day care center or a maternity ward next.
You can help by forgetting you ever read this man's name, and remembering the name of at least one victim. You can help by donating to mental health research instead of pointing to gun control as the problem. You can help by turning off the news."
The news services aren't going to change the way they operate voluntarily. They have a duty to their owners to make money off the news and this is how they do it. Any law designed to control their reporting would not likely stand up in the courts. Even if this analysis is correct, it doesn't point to a solution.
Maybe the advertisers could inject themselves into the situation and insist that the news sources take a less inflammatory and exploitative tack, but why should they? It's their duty to make money for their owners as well!
Basically, this piece is just griping about human nature for the media is just giving the people what they know they want.
If you want to change things like this, change the public.
We need to come up with non-lethal but effective weapons.. I'm still waiting for the phaser to come out. Set it on stun and let every teacher carry one. Works on shooters and unruly students and if you accidently miss all you have is someone unconscious for awhile instead of dead.
Yeah, I'm waiting for the phaser.
This shooter was wearing body armor. I understand that getting hit by a large round even when wearing body armor can put some people on their ass, and if not that it can certainly distract them long enough for the good guy to attempt a head shot or a shot to the thigh (which can kill almost as quickly, believe it or not, if it punctures the femoral artery). A shot to the leg, if it doesn't kill, can greatly slow the shooter down, allowing more people to escape.
I... you mean like stun guns?
Any cop will tell you that stun guns (and pepper spray) fail to work quite frequently. They both also require one to get fairly close to a guy. If the guy is actively shooting...not thanks, I'm sure.

Washington's source for compelling television and inspiring classical music. Donate Online
Born in Asheville, North Carolina, Roberta Flack started playing the piano at an early age. When she was five, her family moved to the Nauck community in Arlington and she took up the organ, lending her musical talents to Macedonia Baptist Church. At 15, she entered Howard University with a full music scholarship and, by 19, she was a college graduate seeking.
She accepted a position in a segregated school district in Farmville, North Carolina and wound up being the only music teacher for 1300 students, kindergarten through 12th grade. "I lost 40 pounds and almost had a nervous breakdown but we did some beautiful things that year."[1]
Flack returned to Washington and taught at Rabaut Junior High School and Brown Junior High School. In the evenings, she started performing – first at the Tivoli Theatre in Columbia Heights and then at Mr. Henry's, a Capitol Hill nightclub at 6th and Pennsylvania Ave, SE, which was owned by Henry Yaffe.
On July 23, 1942 Washingtonians packed Griffith Stadium to the gills for a special "Battle of Music" between African American jazz legend Louis Armstrong and white saxophonist Charlie Barnet. In segregated Washington of the 1940s, such an organized interracial competition was a big event and few people – especially in the black community that surrounded the stadium – wanted to miss the "musical fisticuffs."[1]
I came across this photo while doing some research about the National Zoo. It's a picture of jazz quintet playing a concert for a polar bear in the 1920s. Errr... what? I'd really like to know what precipitated this. Did these dudes just wake up one morning and say, "Hey, let's go down to the zoo and play a set for the bears." "Good idea, I'll see if Gertrude is free to dance for them."? Well, in any case, the bear seems to be enjoying it. Or maybe he's just waiting for his chance to take a swipe at them through the bars.

MEHOOPANY — PennDOT is closing a busy bridge in Wyoming County on Monday. It will be shut down through next summer.
People who use it every day will now be dealing with a six-and-a-half mile detour and some of them tell us that won't be easy.
Work has been underway building a new bridge over Mehoopany Creek in Mehoopany but now the project to construct this new bridge is going to impact traffic that uses the one right nearby it is replacing.
The old bridge closes on Monday. The rusting span is coming down.
"I've been living here 25 years. It's been looking the same way since I moved here. No one's picked up a paint brush to this thing in 25 years," said Bill Forster of Mehoopany.
But with this bridge closing Monday and the new bridge not opening until next July, that means nine months with no way to cross the creek here. Drivers will have to use a six-and-a-half mile detour. That includes many employees going to the big employer in the area, Proctor and Gamble.
Edith Wilson lives near the bridge, on the opposite side of Mehoopany itself.
"I have an appointment on Monday when they're closing it. I have to go all the way around."
Lauren Nothoff lives on the other side of the bridge. She also uses it a lot.
"It's just going to take longer to get around. Usually I take this route to Tunkhannock because it's quicker to go all the way around on (Route) 87 and such."
People familiar with the detour are a little concerned about one stretch, what they call one of the steepest hills in the area. They say this isn't going to be easy going up and down in the winter.
"You get ice, you're not getting up it," said Keith Dixon of Mehoopany Township.
Some drivers are worried about all the trucks and the school buses that will have to go through here.
"What I'm worried about is the health care. If someone has an emergency, a life or death situation and the ambulance or fire company is going to have to go around, and those few minutes might make a difference," Wilson said.
PennDOT says the old bridge has to be closed now to allow for excavating the stream and building a retaining wall to go along with the new bridge being built.
It's expected to open in July of 2014.

Step 1: Gather materials
Rubber band
Nails, rod or pencil
1/4" plywood for can end cap
Drill with a bit larger than 1/8th inch diameter (hard to stuff rubber band through 1/8"hole)
Hammer (just in case)
Non-essential items:
Hot glue gun (decided not to glue on the end cap to make it easier to inspect the can "guts" and be able to easily modify as necessary)
Dental floss/Wire (potential weight securing materials - not used)
Step 2: Make endcap
2. Saw out wooden endcap with a bandsaw or jigsaw.
3. Sand to fit.
Step 3: Drill holes
2. Mark hole location on wood with pen through holes in can.
3. Drill holes in wood.
Step 4: Thread bands
2. Attach weight to the center of low tensioned band.
3. Use nails to secure bands.
- I recommend a hole larger than the 1/8" holes in the photos. It was hard to thread the rubber bands.
Step 5: Test
- Some designs use only one one rubber band through the center of the can (along the rotational axis).
Step 7: Replace nails with pencils
1. Mark notch locations.
2. Cut notches.
