This low mileage 1957 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser convertible is a mostly original survivor. 61K original miles and it is, I believe, a two owner car. We are selling this for the estate of the owner.
This Pace Car series Mercury is incredibly well optioned. A partial list of options include:
-368 c.i. V8 engine.
-Cruise-O-Matic transmission with push buttons.
-Power steering
-Power brakes
-Power windows
-Power top
-Power antenna
-Town and Country radio
-Seat-O-Matic memory power seat
-Lube-O-Matic central lubrication system
-Remote mirror of the left side
-Tinted Glass
-Continental kit
-Average Speed computer clock
-Tachometer, etc.
The car is mostly original. The paint is probably 50% original, 50% touch up. Overall it is good. There are chips, dents, scratches all over, but could definitely be used exactly the way it is. The tinted glass is good. One small chip in the windshield that could be filled in. All the windows work well. The top is original to the car and in very good condition and includes a brand new boot. It opens and closes well. The chrome and stainless are very nice. The tires are newer with very very little to no use.
The interior is original and in very good condition. Most if not all of the factory options work including the windows, memory seat, radio, etc. The dash is in great condition. The optional steering wheel is perfect.
The engine compartment is original and very presentable. All wiring is in very good condition, not dry. The carburetor is freshly rebuilt. The engine runs very well and the transmission shifts correctly. There is some lifter noise from time to time. The car has been sitting for a couple of years now so it might clear up after being driven. The brakes feel great.
In the past few thousand miles the car has received over $8000 in service work including; carb, suspension, steering, brakes, transmission seals, etc, etc. The car could be driven and enjoyed exactly as it sits now.
Overall this is a very unique and rare classic car. It is uncommon to find one in this condition with low miles, fully loaded with options and well cared for. SOLD

Which fuji email account are all of you using? It might be helpful if you posted.
I used the contact form on the Fuji USA website:
I sent a message to Fuji as well.
Boy, what a screw up by Kodak. I JUST bought 540,000 feet of 35mm b&w motion picture dupe neg, finegrain release print stock and sound recording stock from them for the archive lab I supervise.
I guess $100K worth of purchases are not important to that CEO.
Ok ORWO and FUJI, looks you are THE REAL DEAL.
Frank W.
I opted to send my thanks via snail mail. For B&W I'll continue to use Ilford, but all my color stuff will be Fuji from now on. I'll use up the yellow boxes in my fridge, but they certainly won't be replaced with the same color.
I used the one Frank posted at the start of the thread, because that's the one which said they would forward all emails to Fuji Japan.Quote:

I use Ilford all the time as well, but I take the view that one day I might need colour film also.Quote:

B&W photography. I've been saying what they say in the press release (the bit before Frank's quote on other thread) for so long til I'm blue in the face to all the digi people I know. It's good to see a major maunfacturer come out and say the same thing.Quote:

Best wishes
I shoot colour very rarely, but when I do, Portra 160 NC is my choice, I dislike the highly saturated colours of FUJI, a matter of taste of course.Quote:

Meet what Air Repair calls the Swiss Army Knife of beauty products. This multitasking, all-natural skin salve can be applied anywhere and everywhere—to lips, hands, face, knees, elbows, and even cuticles—to instantly soothe and heal dry skin. The brand's revolutionary combination of emollients (sweet almond oil, fatty-acid rich lanolin, and vitamin E) effectively inhibits chronic inflammation (or inflam-aging) that causes dryness, irritation, and premature wrinkles. And it does so without parabens, petroleum, or mineral oil. Plus, the travel-friendly packaging makes it easy to slip into your carry-on, so you can be sure your skin stays soft and supple no matter your destination.
I got this in my birchbox as a sample a while ago, and loved it. I bought the full size and have honestly regretted it. For whatever reason this size separates into oil and jelly really quickly, and the size of the container makes it a little hard to mix up. I also have really come to dislike the smell- it didn't bother me in the sample but overtime it has become way too much. Besides those two problems though, it works great and is definitely effective!3
I have hyper sensitive, extremely dry rosacea skin and nearly everything I've tried has either broken me out or caused my skin to become angry and inflamed.
After spending most of a winter being able to use nothing but jojoba oil and vaseline after product after product failed, I decided to try this stuff on my face. Within just a couple of days my skin had calmed down, and looked soft and dewy.
After using this stuff for a solid 6 months now it has become a permanent part of my nighttime routine, and has been elevated to holy grail status. I even get compliments on my beautiful skin now! I can't recommended this product more.

THE BOOK BEHIND THE SECOND SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES, AN ORIGINAL SERIES NOW ON HBO. A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE: BOOK TWO In this thrilling sequel to A Game of Thrones, George R. R. Martin has created a work of unsurpassed vision, power, and imagination. A Clash of Kings transports us to a world of revelry and revenge, wizardry and warfare unlike any we have ever experienced. A comet the color of blood and flame cuts across the sky. And from the ancient citadel of Dragonstone to the forbidding shores of Winterfell, chaos reigns. Six factions struggle for control of a divided land and the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms, preparing to stake their claims through tempest, turmoil, and war. It is a tale in which brother plots against brother and the dead rise to walk in the night. Here a princess masquerades as an orphan boy; a knight of the mind prepares a poison for a treacherous sorceress; and wild men descend from the Mountains of the Moon to ravage the countryside. Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, victory may go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel . . . and the coldest hearts. For when kings clash, the whole land trembles.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • THE BOOK BEHIND THE FIFTH SEASON OF THE ACCLAIMED HBO SERIES GAME OF THRONESDon't miss the thrilling sneak peek of George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire: Book Six, The Winds of WinterDubbed "the American Tolkien" by Time magazine, George R. R. Martin has earned international acclaim for his monumental cycle of epic fantasy. Now the #1 New York Times bestselling author delivers the fifth book in his landmark series—as both familiar faces and surprising new forces vie for a foothold in a fragmented empire. A DANCE WITH DRAGONSA SONG OF ICE AND FIRE: BOOK FIVE In the aftermath of a colossal battle, the future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance—beset by newly emerging threats from every direction. In the east, Daenerys Targaryen, the last scion of House Targaryen, rules with her three dragons as queen of a city built on dust and death. But Daenerys has thousands of enemies, and many have set out to find her. As they gather, one young man embarks upon his own quest for the queen, with an entirely different goal in mind.Fleeing from Westeros with a price on his head, Tyrion Lannister, too, is making his way to Daenerys. But his newest allies in this quest are not the rag-tag band they seem, and at their heart lies one who could undo Daenerys's claim to Westeros forever.Meanwhile, to the north lies the mammoth Wall of ice and stone—a structure only as strong as those guarding it. There, Jon Snow, 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, will face his greatest challenge. For he has powerful foes not only within the Watch but also beyond, in the land of the creatures of ice.From all corners, bitter conflicts reignite, intimate betrayals are perpetrated, and a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves, will face seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Some will fail, others will grow in the strength of darkness. But in a time of rising restlessness, the tides of destiny and politics will lead inevitably to the greatest dance of all.Praise for A Dance with Dragons "Filled with vividly rendered set pieces, unexpected turnings, assorted cliffhangers and moments of appalling cruelty, A Dance with Dragons is epic fantasy as it should be written: passionate, compelling, convincingly detailed and thoroughly imagined."—The Washington Post "Long live George Martin . . . a literary dervish, enthralled by complicated characters and vivid language, and bursting with the wild vision of the very best tale tellers."—The New York Times "One of the best series in the history of fantasy."—Los Angeles Times

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo!
... Park Zoo was next on the agenda and we travelled from central Chicago out on the underground or 'Metra' as all the sign posts say. A walk through the pleasant Lincoln Park (where we saw rare nesting black-crowned herons) before entering the zoo itself which, unbelievably, is free of charge! We saw many animals (as you'd expect), but the highlight for us all was the 'twilight world'. Bryony loved watching some little bright blue and yellow poison-arrow ...

We return to the Olympic Training Center in 3 weeks for training camp. The hard work begins then in our quest for a gold medal! ...
Final full day in Chicago
... through the crowds with the rest of us following behind. We snaked our way back to the apartment via numerous shops and malls before arriving as darkness descended over Chicago for another day - around 4.30pm. Chris, assisted by anyone who ventured into the kitchen, cooked up an Indian feast for dinner, filling the apartment and surrounding corridors of the apartment block with exotic aromas. The curries were enjoyed along with the obligatory glass of ...
Chicago to Vienna
We arrived in Chicago on time and took the train to the International Departures Terminal for connection to our Austrian Airlines flight to Vienna. The flight was on time, the on-board service was good, and although we didn't sleep much, the time passed quickly, and before we knew it, we were on final approach into Vienna.
Monday in Chicago ...
... thunder meant we beat a retreat back into the city at lunchtime, and did some shopping, interspersed with lunch. We had a storm, plenty of rain which freshened things up (a bit) and bobbed back to the hotel for 40 winks (me and Jane only) before dinner. We ate at an Italian called Quartinos. We'd passed it a couple of times and it was always full, and buzzing. But what most ...

Ordered this a few weeks back. Just got around to installing it. Although there were no instructions included it was pretty straight forward. Removed my plain tail gate topper, ran the power cable down one of the holes that wouldnt have a tab in it. Pulled it out the bottom hole then attached the extension cable that was included. Pushed spoiler down to securely attach it. Plugged it in a voila! Everything worked fine right out the box. Super Bright lights

Ripples of Battle: How Wars of the Past Still Determine How We Fight, How We Live, and How We Thinkby Victor Davis Hanson
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
What defines a "watershed event," a moment in history that changes the world forever? Victor Davis Hanson tackles this intriguing question in Ripples of Battle, an eye-opening look at three great military encounters: Okinawa, Shiloh, and Delium, an obscure battle of the Peloponnesian War. A master of military detail, Hanson describes the strategies and tactics, and the terrible cost in human life, of each battle. These vivid accounts set the stage for a wider inquiry into the long-term, often unintended, consequences of war.
Ripples of Battle begins with the most recent battle and works backward in time, starting with Okinawa (1945) and its legacy. While many have drawn comparisons between the 9/11 pilots and the Japanese kamikazes, Hanson argues that the real significance of the battle was the heightening of America?s resolve to win the war at any cost. The failure of suicide tactics was also a vital catalyst in ending Japan?s militarist leadership and setting the country on the path toward democracy. Next, Hanson explains how the death of Confederate Commander-in-Chief Albert Sidney Johnston at Shiloh (1862), long considered a turning point in the Civil War, gave birth to the myth of the Lost Cause — the belief that only a tragic accident of fate destroyed the South?s noble dream. The stubborn devotion to this reactionary view would slow Southern progress for a century. Turning to the battle of Delium (424 B.C.), Hanson shows how the ripples of each battle spread and deepen with the passage of time. Little remembered today, the battle inspired a tragedy by Euripides, profoundly altered the direction of Western philosophy (Socrates was one of the few Athenians to survive), and virtually created Western infantry tactics.
Employing the lens of the past to bring the present into focus, Ripples of Battle is a work of penetrating insight and profound understanding of the human cost and consequence of war.
"Like any good classicist, Victor Davis Hanson accepts the primacy of military history in human affairs. In Ripples of Battle, a sequel of sorts to his masterful Carnage and Culture, he shows the fascinating repercussions of three lesser-known battles. You cannot fully understand Hiroshima, the bitterness of the Old South, or the Golden Age of Athens without reading this gem of a book." Robert D. Kaplan
"Victor Davis Hanson has earned a well-deserved reputation as one of the most interesting and innovative military historians in the world. In Ripples of Battle, he shows once again why he's the best. He ranges far and wide, from World War II to the wars of ancient Greece. Along the way he combines a born storyteller's gift for rip-roaring battle narrative with a scholar's attention to the deeper meaning of conflict. Once again he manages to take what may seem familiar and to show it in an utterly new light. The "ripples" that he identifies – which include characters as disparate as Socrates and the author of Ben Hur – astonish and delight. This book is not only deeply enlightening but also a sheer pleasure to read. It is, in short, vintage Victor." Max Boot, Olin senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and author of The Savage Wars of Peace: Small Wars and the Rise of American Power
"Victor Davis Hanson is one of our leading military historians, and in 'Ripples of Battle' he does not disappoint. A far-reaching story of man, war, and history, it is, by turns, iconoclastic, touching, deeply learned, and endlessly fascinating. This slim book is a grand study." Jay Winik, author of April 1865: The Month That Saved America
"With this usefully idiosyncratic and provocative work, Hanson may succeed the late Stephen Ambrose as America's laureate of military history." Publishers Weekly
"Hanson reveals surprising connections that many historical narratives miss, and that is this book's strength. Its weakness is its tendency to wear its politics on its bloodstained sleeve." Booklist
Includes bibliographical references (p. 260-268) and index.
A bestselling military historian investigates three key battles in Western history and reveals their enduring impact on civilization, from how we wage war to our political and cultural assumptions, to the way we think and view the world.

Israel was taught a few lessons from the 2 nd. Lebanon War. Tanks are useless. Bombarding civilian areas cause International outcries. Corvettes are subject to missile attack. The answer lies in Stealth Aircraft combined with Special Forces. The trouble is that all these variants are well known to Hezbollah. They will fire their missiles from outlying schools,hospitals and even from granny·s backyard vegetable patch. The answer is finding some sort of arrangement. If not, Armageddon over Lebanon is imminent. One must remember, that Mr.Nasrallah is a hero in the Arab World, for he alone fought the IDF to a standstill, which no other Arab Army could achieve. I say this with certain misgivings, for that alone could well be, reason enough for the order to return to those heady days when Hezbollah was firing hundreds of missiles daily,.. hitting civilian targets in Haifa and surrounding areas. ZAHAL can and will prevail. However, at what cost.? Thousands of Lebanese will die. Hezbollah is the key. They should stick to social services and local politics in a responsible manner.. Good day from icy Swiss Alps.

GeeBee's Activity
GeeBee added a post in a topic Death of the "Camera Counter"I never thought digital would take off, not for the non professional anyway, when i was working freelance for Canal & Riverboat, Waterways World, Yachting monthly and other travel magazines and brochures, there was nothing to beat than Fuji Velvia 50 6x6 exposed at 80 asa, with developing times adjusted in the darkroom to compensate, the colours were so saturated, all the editors I dealt with loved the colours that film gave me.
My first digital camera came free with a new computer and printer outfit back in 2001,I never really took to it, 2MP, which gave a photo of 6x4" and it eat AA batteries like they were going out of fashion, so it sat in the draw, still can't remember what happened to it, as I know I don't have it now, I carried on using good old film until 2004 when I bought the Nikon D70 when that was released, it was cheaper and superior to the earlier and more expensive D100, after I had got used to using digital and the software which wasn't cheap at the time, but I bought a few books and learnt the in's and out's of Photoshop and Lightroom, I still have a few film cameras but haven't used on since around 2006,but these days all my photo's are taken on my Nikon D7000, I'm not even sure that the magazines I still do the odd commision for still accept film now.
GeeBee added a post in a topic Death of the "Camera Counter"I've still got a load of 35mm film in the freezer, most of it is transparency, which I love, back when i was working as a full time Pro' working as a travel photographer and doing freelance work for many travel magazines, tourist boards, postcards etc, I used a 120 Mamiya, not the lightest camera in the world but the photo's I got from that were so much better than 35mm, Fujichrome Velvia 50 was probably the best film I had ever used.
I had my own colour darkroom using Jobo equipment, enlarger and processor, but stopped using the darkroom when work got so busy I had to outsource all my work to a Pro' lab in B'ham, what was my darkroom is now my hobby room.

This recipe offers a delicious alternative to commercial energy bars, which can get expensive if not bought in bulk. These homemade bars are perfect for a burst of energy on the spot during a workout, as well as for a satisfying afternoon snack.
While the bars are relatively high in fat, it's healthful fat from peanuts and sunflower seeds. If you'd like some variety, make this recipe with cashews and cashew butter, and add a variety of dried fruits like cranberries, cherries, and dates.
Ingredients:1/2 cup salted dry-roasted peanuts1/2 cup roasted sunflower seed kernels, or use more peanuts or other nuts1/2 cup raisins or other dried fruit2 cups uncooked oatmeal, old-fashioned or instant2 cups toasted rice cereal, such as Rice Krispies1/2 cup peanut butter, crunchy or creamy1/2 cup packed brown sugar1/2 cup light corn syrup1 teaspoon vanilla Optional: 1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
Mix together the first six ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside. Combine peanut butter, brown sugar and corn syrup in a large bowl. Microwave on high for two minutes. Add vanilla and stir until blended. Add dry ingredients from medium bowl. Stir until coated. Spoon mixture into an eight-inch square pan coated with non-stick spray. Press down firmly (It helps to spray fingers with nonstick spray). Let stand about 1 hour. Cut into bars, and enjoy!

The Women's Sports Foundation is a non-profit that advances the lives of women through sports and physical activity.
Childhood obesity has been a prevalent issue in recent times and there is constant research being conducted that delves into the causes, effects and negative repercussions of this health risk. One of the latest studies draws a correlation between parental monitoring of children's media consumption and their children's respective body mass indices.
It's an obvious truth that you only have to look at an elementary school playground for living proof that childhood obesity is on the rise. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports that obesity has more than tripled in the past 30 years among the six- to 19-year-old population. We created our award-winning GoGirlGo! curriculum to get girls moving and help to fight this alarming statistic, but there are a myraid other programs out there that are worth exploring if GoGirlGo! is not available in your community.
A new survey from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation finds that many parents are concerned about inadequate levels of physical education in U.S. public schools. NPR, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Harvard School of Public Health polled 1,368 parents of public school children in grades K–12 on a range of issues around education and health in the their child's school. In a time when so many are concerned with the strength of school math and science programs, this new study proves physical education and health is also a top priority for parents.

The Army has delayed the start date for Network Integration Evaluation 14, an extended event at Fort Bliss, Texas, to test technologies for rapid deployment to the battlefield.
The Army's twice-yearly event centered on testing new technologies for rapid deployment into combat is slated to undergo some changes, starting with a delayed opening.
Network Integration Evaluation 14.1 was scheduled to start Oct. 22, but is being pushed back a week because the 16-day government shutdown halted preparations. But the event still will end on time, around Nov. 14, according to an Army official overseeing NIE, which takes place at Fort Bliss, Texas.
Michael McCarthy, director of operations at Army Brigade Modernization Command, said some testing and evaluation will be compressed and the event will continue over the Veteran's Day weekend, when operations normally would stop.
"There's no slack time in the schedule," McCarthy said.
The delayed start likely is just the beginning of changes for NIE, with funding cuts, the war in Afghanistan winding down and different requirements coming into play. But officials insist the program will continue.
"NIE is on the books," Lt. Gen. James Barclay, Army deputy chief of staff, said Oct. 22 at the Association of the U.S. Army's annual meeting in Washington, D.C. "There is a question of whether it's one time or two times [a year]. That's part of getting to decide what we are trying to get out of this program. We continually self-evaluate NIE and what it brings to us. It's doing very well as we're moving forward with those reviews. Not that it will not change some in the future.... That's part of sitting down and understanding what our goals are for this program in the future."
Some of the changes include an increased focus on capabilities and a decreased emphasis on the IT side of things, as well as the incorporation of mission partners, McCarthy said.
"There are a number of things under consideration," he said. "A big piece is taking a more focused look at capability sets as opposed to networks, expanding that aperture. Another thing is that scenarios have been focused on wide-area security missions, what we're doing in theater. Now it's going back to full-spectrum operations with large-unit maneuvers. So [we] will see some changes over time with what scenarios look like, and more of a joint and coalition flavor over the next couple of NIEs."
Among the potential new participants are the other military services, including the Marine Corps, and international partners, McCarthy added.
Barclay emphasized that NIE has continued support from the Army's top leadership. His endorsement was echoed by Heidi Shyu, assistant secretary of the Army for acquisition, logistics and technology.
"NIE has helped us incorporate soldier feedback; that's the No. 1 most important thing we've gotten out of that," Shyu said. "We now understand what we need to modify and change to improve utilization.... It has also shaped our acquisition strategy on a number of important programs."

Can't convert String into integer in ruby/ruby-on-rails
I'm running through a tutorial on Lynda for learning rails and I'm running into a problem. I've built an AccessController to work with an AdminUser model I have. I'm using a string/time salt combo and saving that to the Db, then trying to authenticate using a login form. Here is some code from AccessController
def attempt_login
authorized_user = AdminUser.authenticate(params[:username], params[:password])
#authorized_user = nil
if authorized_user
flash[:notice] = "You are logged in now"
redirect_to(:action => 'menu')
flash[:notice] = "invalid username/password combo"
redirect_to(:action => 'login')
And then some from my model where I define the authenticate method:
def self.authenticate(username="", password="")
user = AdminUser.find_by_username(username)
if user && user.password_match?(password)
return user
return false
def password_match?(password="")
hashed_password == AdminUser.hash_with_salt(password, salt)
All the hash_with_salt method does is take salt from the DB for that user and makes sure the password entered is salted/encryped with the same salt. Here's the error I'm continuously getting:
TypeError in AccessController#attempt_login
can't convert String into Integer

The Wave WaterparkRead MoreIn the middle of The Wave Waterpark, people lie upon colorful rafts that float gently down the lazy river. It's a serene way to soak up some rays and keep cool.

This simulated surfable ocean wave dares visitors to try and hang ten without falling off their boards into the safe, if rollicking waters. These two attractions represent the broad spectrum of activity at The Wave, a family-friendly destination equally suited to mild-mannered relaxation, adventurous fun, or something in between. Other rides include a tangle of waterslides, such as the Slam Dunk, an enclosed-tunnel body slide with plenty of twists, and a kid-friendly playground gushing with fountains and waterfalls. From April to September, lifeguards teach swim lessons in the park's competition pool for kids as young as 6 months, as well as adults.
