sjm autoprod - Concept Afterburner Tail Lights
This is the official thread for our concept afterburners.
As some have suggested, DOT/NHTSA will be on the back burner for now. We have matched the brightness of the stock brake lights and will start with that.
Phase II: Complete Tail Lamps
This is for people that don't want to DIY. Just swap out your stock lamps for ones that have been fully modified.
Please post if you wish to be placed in the list.
Older Info
It's been a long journey, but, we seem to be well on track for hitting a price-point of $500 or less!
Update: $419 is the kit price for first run!
Phase 1: DIY Kits
Tools Required:
That's it! :w00t:
The basic kit consists of four light modules and four outer diffusers. After opening the housings and removing the inner lens, the modules mount inside and plug into the stock bulb connectors. If you have non-RS tails, you may want to black out the chrome lip inside. Lastly, you insert the outer diffusers and seal up the outer lens.
You can choose either the original, light outer-diffuser, or, the new, dark version (last two pics). A few other options will be detailed soon, such as flicker and sequential brake/turn.
See below for the group-buy list! When we hit 25 confirmed, the price will be $419 plus shipping! Deposits are being accepted ($127) and these should ship ~4 weeks after we get to 25 (or close).
Note that these are LED's, so, you will need load resistors (4x 6 ohm, at least 35W) to eliminate the Bulb Out errors on the DIC and hyperflashing. You can get them yourself, or, we can supply a set of four with t-taps for $28 (special price for those that have purchased the kit, normally $35).
We will update this thread with more info, and, the important bits will always be found in this first post.
Thanks to all of those that have purchased our other products which have allowed us to get to this point in under one year! :headbang:
Light diffuser on left, dark on right.
Flicker Demo
This is the list for the DIY kits...
Can't wait for updates. Have you tested these with led sidemarkers or the sequential tail light harness?
Wow. You are quick. ;)
These tails and LED sidemarkers should not affect each other. We don't have those installed yet (cough:Showstopper:cough), but, they are due in soon.
I do know that these will not work with our current sequential-tail kits. It seems logical that other sequential kits should be fine.
I am ready! what do you need from me? No seq. just them sick a$$ After burners!!!!
I have Showstopper's sidemarkers and a sequential harness. I guess you can send me a set of tail lights and I'll test them for you.
Do i have to go to Showstoppers for install or can i just drop my tail lights off to you. LOL. Pete will have my car in March most likely.
Can't wait to see the finished product. :popcorn:
I have a new set of tail lights in the box for you when your ready to go. PayPal standing by!
thats great an all
but any pics or vids or somethin ?
also if u can prove they work with the showstoppers leds that would be gr8
also pics of them with the lights off in bright daylight would be good
to see the quality of these
Agree with ^^^^
Very interested!!!!
only thing I need to know is do you take credit or paypal?
thanks for all your hard work!!
It looks cool. :thumbup:
As long as you can see them from 1000 feet, they should be legal. Really dig the rifling look to the housing.
OK, I've been waiting for these since you did your prototypes.
So, how much is it to order a set of these? Are these exchanges or outright prices?
Details, details! We need as much info as you can provide. (oh, and pics as well!)
Info will be posted as it develops.
Note that the price-point stated is for parts only. It does not include the tail lights themselves, or, installation.
It would be great if you could offer an option for an "assembled light package" with a refundable core charge. This way I could order the kit, remove my old taillights, pop in the new ones, and return my old set to you. You would refund me a core charge when you get my old ones.
these are looking pretty good so far !
especially the bottom picture.
when will you have a finished picture with the brakelight on ?
Awesome! Once you get it settled, how much for a set shipped to 90250. My car is a daily driver so I can't send mine in and wait for them to be returned if that's how it's being done.
waiting for this as well and a swap out option
Core swaps are what we want to do for those that don't want to install themselves.
The install is actually not bad. Cut the outer lens off, remove the inner lens, install the light module and diffuser, then, silicone the outer lens back on. ;)
Are you able to ship the parts and instructions yet or is it mandatory to send the taillights to you?

Women are the Drivers in Healthcare Shopping
For some time now, a chief complaint among employers has been, "How do we get employees to care about their healthcare benefits and the associated costs?" For anyone who's read this blog, you know that I'm a bit obsessed with that mission as well.
Last week I read two new research reports that allude to an increasing consumer involvement in healthcare. Many of the statistics reveal that companies have a real opportunity to be heroes to their employees where cost transparency is concerned. Music to my ears.
- In the February issue of EBRI Notes, the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) reported on its 2010 Health Confidence Survey, concluding that "women, younger individuals and those with more education were more likely than others to seek information on cost, quality and access. It also found that individuals who experienced an increase in either premiums or cost sharing were more likely than those who did not experience such an increase to seek (healthcare) information." And a quarter of the population looked for costs of different treatments, doctors and hospitals.
- In another study focused on how employees make healthcare decisions, the National Business Group on Health stated that 75 percent of workers use their employer as a resource for medical and health information. Additionally, 69 percent rate their employers as completely, very or moderately trustworthy sources of health information.
In my judgment, the upshot of both of these studies is that as more consumers (read: employees) are paying a greater share of the cost of healthcare, they're beginning to seek more information about the quality and cost of care. We're seeing this trend reinforced in the use of our Cost Transparency Solution. Data development from the change:healthcare informatics team shows that even in an employee population that is only 37 percent female, more than 50 percent of the employee engagement with the change:healthcare Cost Transparency Solution is through women.
We know that women are responsible for more than 80 percent of healthcare purchase decisions. It's great to see that play out within our own client base. American's know how to shop – American women are experts. The healthcare system should cater to women, and shopping.

Thanks for the article. As a primary care physician, many of my patients seek price information when we are formulating a treatment plan. After extensive research, I launched http://www.HealthScepter.com in order to encapsulate the best of cash medicine on the web. By focusing on cash pricing and transparency, substantial cost reduction can be realized in the U.S. healthcare system. Have fun shopping on HealthScepter!

A big push last week called for Timberwolves forward Kevin Love to be voted into the NBA All-Star Game starting lineup. This week, a quieter push is underway to get his fellow frontcourt mate Nikola Pekovic named as a reserve.
"He is a monster," said Love, a two-time all-star. "He is very tough to handle in this league. We were just talking about it (Wednesday). He is the strongest player in the league, and in my opinion, it isn't even close. He gets in there and shoots a very high percentage and rebounds the ball at a very high level."
Two of the strongest centers in the league played Wednesday. Sacramento's DeMarcus Cousins is averaging 23.5 points and 11.6 rebounds. Pekovic is averaging 18.3 and 9.2 rebounds.
But both Pekovic and Cousins could be victims to the gerrymandering the NBA did with changes to voting in 2012. It went to frontcourt and backcourt and away from the five positions.
"I think in some cases they suffer from that," Love said of the voting classes. "I think DeMarcus has a very good shot of making it. Pek has played well as of late. Those are two of the premier centers in the league."
With the current frontcourt distinction, center Dwight Howard was second in the frontcourt voting returns released last week. Cousins was 11th. Pekovic wasn't in the top 15.

SACD & Other Hi-Res Reviews
ELGAR: Symphony No. 1 in A Flat Major; Sonata for Organ in G Major (Transcribed by Gordon Jacob) – BBC National Orchestra of Wales/Richard Hickox – Chandos
Published on June 8, 2008
Elgar dedicated his First Symphony of 1907 to Hans Richter, the conductor who had premiered his Enigma Variations in 1899. It opens with what he had called a "noble and simple melody," which serves as the motto theme for the entire work. There is no specific program for the work, and the first movement is by far the longest of the four, with a feeling of upward-striving melodic development. The work's finale also has an optimistic feeling, with its final pages reasserting Elgar's stated "massive hope for the future."
His Organ Sonata was the only piece Elgar has written prior to his First Symphony which had multiple movements. He had written the work for the organist of Worcester Cathedral. Some years after the composer's death his British publishers proposed the idea of orchestrating the Organ Sonata. The final result doesn't betray its origins as an organ work, and sounds instead like a notable orchestral companion to the First Symphony. The transparent surround sonics draw the listener into the structure and development of both orchestral works.

Pleasant Living residents raise money for home…and for those who protect our homes and us
Half of the money raised was donated to a nonprofit dedicated to helping deputies and other sheriff office employees in critical need after catastrophic events.
By Mitch Traphagen
With a number of seniors living on a fixed income, extra funds for things like tree trimming are often difficult to come by. A number of residents of the Pleasant Living Mobile Home Park in Riverview are included in that group and some have been endangered or have had homes damaged by falling tree limbs. The Pleasant Living Association is actively raising money to pay for the necessary tree trimming, a task estimated to cost at least $9,000 for the entire community. Last month they organized an art show with the support and involvement of renowned artist Fred Rothenbush and the generosity of several local businesses including Chic fil-A, Cottage Florist, Riverview Florist, Hungry Howies, Dave's BBQ, Packer's Plus, Target, Fruit Creations For You and Destiny Church.
The event raised $800 but the park's community association decided to donate half of it to the Lynn Sowers Memorial Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping deputies and other employees of the sheriff's office in critical need after unforeseen catastrophic events.
The foundation was created in memory of HCSO Deputy Lynn Sowers after her death in 1995 and, to date, has provided more than $1,000,000 to those who have dedicated their lives to protecting us and our community during periods of catastrophic need, ranging from losses of homes to cancer. The foundation steadfastly protects the identity of the recipients. Most of the money to fund the foundation comes from HCSO officers and civilian employees and some is provided by communities and private citizens. It is an invaluable resource for those who are dedicated to protecting and serving others in their time of critical need.
"Lynn Sowers was an HCSO Deputy and was pregnant with her first child when she suffered a brain aneurism," HCSO Public Information Officer Debbie Carter said. "Both Lynn and the baby died. Within hours, deputies had collected several thousand dollars in her memory to give to her husband. He told them that they had their financial affairs in order and the money should be given to those who need it.
The foundation was created and among the first recipients were young deputies suffering from cancer. If a deputy or a civilian employee's house were to burn down, we could provide them a check the same day. Even if they have all the insurance needed, it can take longer than that for help to arrive. It is very private for the recipients in need."
Private tax-deductible donations to the foundation may be sent to the Lynn Sowers Memorial Foundation, Inc., P.O. Box 270441, Tampa, FL, 33688 or call 813-247-8059.
For information on how you can help the seniors at the Pleasant Living Mobile Home Park, call Richard Brown at 813-769-6828.

When I moved to Tallahassee in the early '80s, one of the first rock shows I attended was a concert by Barrence Whitfield and the Savages.
You may remember Mr. Whitfield for his delicate and thoughtful interpretation of the wistful lament "Mamma Get The Hammer (There's a Fly On Baby's Head)."
Whitfield and his band were brutally intense garage-rockers from Massachusetts who ripped through R&B numbers with an energy level that could melt a diamond. It also helped that Whitfield liked to wear turbans. ...

D1's patented UltraPure® system builds upon the ClearZone® system. UltraPure is more than just an ozone generator; it's a fully engineered water management system similar to the systems used throughout European municipal waste facilities. It has a dedicated filtration and water purification system, processing about 10,000 gallons a day. After filtering the water, this system vigorously mixes ozone and water three times to ensure ozone comes in contact with every drop of water – ozone doesn't just kill bacteria, it burns it up! That means the water is not just clean, it's crystal clear. UltraPure® is also energy efficient, using less energy than a 100-watt light bulb and returning 84% of the energy it uses to the spa water in the form of heat. The best part is, UltraPure® silently purifies while you're in the tub for an exceptionally quiet experience. This system can be found on the Reflections Collection. US Patent: 5,665,228
The Jet Therapy pillow provides you with the only adjustable neck and shoulder massage system in the industry. With multiple positions to choose from, you can get a full-featured massage that adjusts to you. The Jet Therapy pillow also features four powerful jets placed in a curved, padded head cradle for ergonomic support.
D1 activates the power of water with the UltraLounge – the "spa-within-a-spa" massage seat that delivers head-to-toe massage action, washing away tensions and providing the ultimate in whole-body hydrotherapy. Its no-float design includes sculpted leg contours for superior fit and Tactile Therapy for wrists and hands.
The ancient art of reflexology and acupressure have brought relief from aches and pains to millions of people throughout the ages and around the world. D1's Tactile Therapy consists of various-sized therapeutic "bumps" that have been grouped together at key acupressure points for the arms, hands, wrists and feet. These bumps stimulate trigger points in these key areas, providing you with an acupressure massage.

Dimension One Spas offers the best hot tub warranty with a lifetime guarantee, made possible by our UltraLife™ shell. Our shell's surface material is structurally warranted not to leak for the life of the hot tub. As a result, any shell expenses will be covered within the first 7 years, and all expenses other than shipping are covered after 7 years.
Also, our shell's texture provides a non-skid surface that is not prone to scratching, dulling or crazing like a colored acrylic shell. It is the most durable shell material you can find on the market today with the best hot tub warranty.
UltraLife white picks up the LED lights in your spa more than a darker acrylic shell, making it safer to enter and exit the hot tub. It reflects D1's multi-colored LED lights allowing you to make the inside of the spa virtually any color you want.
Similarly, Dimension One Spas' skirting is covered with a 7-year warranty that covers defect and structural integrity. This hot tub warranty includes Envirotect, which is made with environmentally friendly, recycled materials and is extremely durable and weather resistant. Also included is our exclusive Terracina™ skirting, which has the look of real wood without the upkeep. This skirting is weather resistant, will not crack or fade and does not require staining.

Reviews from Rotten Tomatoes
[A] satisfyingly creepy, blunt, down-and-dirty thriller, one of those follow-ups that improves on the original.Manohla Dargis, New York Times, 07.17.2014
Make no mistake, a good "Purge" does not equal a good movie, but the post-apocalyptic thriller is slightly more interesting because it takes itself, and its menace, more seriously.Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times, 07.17.2014
The Purge: Anarchy efficiently exploits its high-concept premise while delivering far more visceral thrills than its predecessor.Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter, 07.17.2014
For most of the film, returning writer-director James DeMonaco favors gore and shock inserts of music over the edgy, nasty parody for which the material seems ready made.Joe McGovern, Entertainment Weekly, 07.18.2014

South Kitsap Man Recognized for Years of Little League Service
Inspire the Future.

That's the name of an award that has been established by the Seattle Mariners and First Fidelity Investments for individuals who have passionately and selflessly dedicated themselves to the advancement of youth baseball programs in the Northwest.

The first recipient is Art Mikelsen, an 81-year-old Port Orchard man who has touched the lives of tens of thousands of youth through Little League baseball.

He'll be recognized during an on-field ceremony prior to tonight's game between the Chicago White Sox and Mariners at Safeco Field.

This is Mikelsen's 56th year as a volunteer with Little League baseball and his 50th as the District 2 administrator, which puts him in a league of his own.

The former Port Orchard city council member and decorated World War II veteran is the only person in the world-wide Little League organization to have been an elected official for 50 years.

"They tell me there never will be another," said Mikelsen, who will be honored at the Little League Baseball Congress in April of 2007 in Houston.

Mikelsen has helped District 2 grow to 15 leagues that serve more than 8,000 youth baseball and softball players in Kitsap, Mason, Pierce, Clallam and Jefferson counties.

Mikelsen, who threw out the ceremonial first pitch at the Mariners' home opener in 2003, will watch tonight's game from a suite at Safeco. The M's provided him with 20 tickets and four parking passes. His great-grandkids, grandchildren, wife, daughter and sons will join him.

First Fidelity Investments will also present Mikelsen with a $1,000 check for District 2 Little League.

Mikelsen said he will use the money for the Big League Baseball (ages 16-18) Western Regional tournament that will be played July 15-20 at the South Kitsap Southern field in Olalla.

Mikelsen is the first of six individuals who will receive the Inspire the Future Award this season.

Scoring during the spring-summer bowling season was low - no men registered an 800 series and Sue Olson was the only woman to top the 700 plateau, though she did it twice.
The season, which runs from May through the end of July, has limited participation, which accounts for fewer high scores than the fall and winter season.
According to Green Bay-Bay Area USBC Bowling Association statistician John Schmitz, 39 men accounted for 69 national honor counts (700 or higher).
Jerry Stordeur, bowling in Olsen's Piggly Wiggly Spring Masters at Village Lanes, registered the highest series, a 782 on June 12.
Jim Delvoye Sr. had the most nationals with seven, including a high of 734. Next was Brent Baeten with five, including a high of 749.
Randy Benz had four with a high of 744 while Eric Basinski (high 775), Dennis Schroeder (769), Mark VanDeuren (762) and Scott Janssen (759) had three apiece. In addition, nine others had two apiece.
Five bowlers registered perfect games - Jerry Polarek in the Masters and Matt Powless in the Winners, both at Village, Dan Boncher and Paul Kannich in the Spring Fling at Riviera Lanes and Mark Caelwaerts in the Beach Cats at Ashwaubenon.
Men registered no 299 games and only one 298, by Eric Stein in the Beach Cats.
For women, Olson's two national honor counts, a 718 and 717, came in Spring Masters at Village.
There were 23 600-plus series, including Olsen's two 700s, and three bowlers accounted for 20 of them.
Caitlin Polarek set the pace with 11 series better than 600 with a high of 679, Olson had five and Jodi Greiling four with a high of 636.
Women failed to record any of the USBC single-game ring awards of 300, 299 and 298.
All scores rolled in the spring-summer leagues count in the 2012-13 GBBA and Green Bay Area USBC Women's Bowling Association average books.
GBWBA 600 Club: The Green Bay 600 Club will hold its 41st annual tournament for members of the Green Bay Area USBC Women's Bowling Association. The singles tournament will be a mail-O-graphic event that begins Oct. 7 and runs through Oct. 20.
Anyone who has bowled a 600 in the association can join the club for a $5 fee. League scores bowled during the Oct. 7-20 time frame will be used.
Competition in the handicap event will be held in three divisions, 185 and over handicap, 165-184 and 164 and under handicap. Bowlers can enter in every league they bowl in but can cash only once in the division they are entered in.
Entry blanks are available at area bowling centers. Blanks, accompanied by a $10 entry fee, can be mailed to Pat Cayemberg, 1523 Cook St., De Pere, 54115.
For more information, call Cayemberg at (920) 336-6998.
The club will hold is annual meeting at 1 p.m. Nov. 3 at the Ashwaubenon Bowling Alley. Prize money for the event will be awarded at the meeting.
Manhattan scratch tournament: De Pere's Nick Berken won Manhattan Lanes' first scratch tournament of the season, defeating Mike Thill of Oshkosh 197-176 in the championship match.
The tournament used the Athens oiling pattern, which makes scoring more difficult than normal league bowling conditions.
The next tournament of the series will be Oct. 20. Qualifying will start at 1 p.m.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Senate President David Williams says he doesn't consider Kentucky's current budget pinch a crisis.
Williams and other top Senate Republicans met Friday morning at the Capitol with Governor Steve Beshear about the budget. Beshear is planning an afternoon press conference in which he's scheduled to outline his plan to trim state spending.
Beshear announced last week that the state needs to cut about $290 million from the current budget that runs through the end of June. Otherwise, Beshear says, the state won't be able to pay all its bills.
Williams says the budget briefing with the governor was "pleasant." Williams says the budget crunch is an opportunity for state government to "tighten its belt."

At the start of Mental Health Awareness Week 2005, we launched a year-long campaign calling for patients with depression to be offered exercise on prescription.
Substantial evidence shows that exercise therapy can be an effective treatment for depression. Advice from the Chief Medical Officer and clinical guidelines say that exercise therapy should be offered to patients with depression. Exercise referral schemes exist across the UK, but the Foundation's research shows that very few doctors are offering referrals to their patients with depression.
The campaign aimed to
We targeted our message at GPs and patients who may be looking for help with depression. We also raised awareness among the general population that exercise is good for your mental health.
The campaign featured in more than 100 magazines and newspapers, including the Daily Telegraph, Guardian, Times, Daily Mail and Observer, BBC TV, ITV, Sky and Channel 5, as well as all national BBC radio stations.
More than 120,000 copies of our leaflets for patients and GPs about exercise on prescription were sent out across the UK.
A number of celebrities supported our campaign, including former Coronation Street actress Denise Welch and television presenter Trisha Goddard.

New Museum Pass: Einstein's WorkshopTuesday, July 8th, 2014 - by: Brian Herzog, Head of Reference
Chelmsford patrons have access to a new museum pass through the Library: Einstein's Workshop, in Burlington.
Einstein's Workshop offers many science and technology classes, and has a great drop-in space. The Library's pass offers free admission during drop in hours and admits up to 2 children.
Drop-in hours vary, so check our museum pass website for more information, and to reserve a pass. You can also visit Einstein's Workshop's website at http://www.einsteinsworkshop.com for more information on their activities.
In other museum pass-related news, the library is running a trial for the summer to make our passes more accessible. We're going to waive our regular pass limits for any day-of-use pass that isn't already reserved that day. So, if you already have something booked, and another museum you'd like to visit is also available on that day, you can now borrow both of them.
At the end of the summer we'll evaluate how the trial went and decide how to move forward. If you have any questions or suggestions about museum passes, please contact the Reference Desk at email@example.com or 978-256-5521 x211.Posted in Library Information, Resources | No Comments »
New England Aquarium Pass AvailableThursday, September 2nd, 2010 - by: Brian Herzog, Head of Reference
During the summer months, there are no museum passes for the New England Aquarium. However, starting right after Labor Day, Chelmsford Residents (and members of the Friends of the Library) will once again be able to reserve our pass to visit the Aquarium.
This pass admits 4 people for the reduced admission of $8.00 per person, but does not provide discounts on parking, the IMAX Theater, cafe' or gift shop, and cannot be applied toward Whale Watch tickets.
Summer might be ending, but there's still lots to go out and do. Visit our website to reserve the Aquarium pass, as well as any of our other museum passes.Posted in Friends of the Library, Resources | No Comments »
New Museum Pass: One Stop FunMonday, July 26th, 2010 - by: Brian Herzog, Head of Reference
We just added another new museum pass for patrons to use - One Stop Fun in Westford.
Our pass admits one child and one adult to the indoor playground at no charge (a $9.99 value), and passholders can upgrade to use the pool for an extra $5.00. This pass, and all our other museum passes, can be reserved through our Museum Pass webpage.
One Stop Fun "was originally known as Gymnastics Unlimited, Inc. and Gym Mania, Inc. When we expanded our center to include a full service Dance Center, the ultimate Party Place and our interactive outdoor Pool Plaza, we became One Stop Fun."
Be sure to read about the other new resources we recently added.Posted in Friends of the Library, Resources | 1 Comment »

Remember to give back
It's good to give and I want to share the name of a charity I like, Souls4Soles. I couldn't save the logo from the website and went on a search for it. I came across this webpage where someone threw a party to collect & send a donation of shoes. Great idea! I admit I keep it simple and make an online transaction. However you decide to give, it's good to share and I find that it comes back tenfold.
In other news, I am not going to be posting for awhile. I will miss my obsession and my 1st blog! Hopefully I'll be back in a few months. If so, I will give a heads up on J Crew Aficionada. Thank you so much to everyone who posted about their experiences and great purchases on J Crew. I had so much fun reading and all the talk led me to create this. Thanks to everyone who read and/or lurked!!! I'm wishing a prosperous and abundant 2009 for all!

J Crew stadium cloth Shipley coat
TOTALLY fulfills my ivory coat obsession. I am a happy gal! Notice the honey glaze Lulu peep toes. ;-)
Straight on view for sleeve length and coat length on my body, which is 5'2"
Will try to post more about fit & feel. I am wearing (and keeping!) a size 2. I usually wear a 4 or 6P.
Adding: Stadium cloth is very soft. I'd even say it feels luxurious. Perhaps I am being generous w/my compliment given I didn't know what to expect. I thought stadium would be a little tougher or rugged. Maybe like a pique. I had to check the label to see if it has cashmere. It's 80% virgin wool & 20% polyamide. I'd say that this runs one size large. I am always a 4 or 6P and this is a 2. As soon as I put it on I felt the empire seam across my back and I knew it was a winner. I love that the mock neck is not as high as a funnel neck. No decorative buttons at the wrist, which I like. And the buttons on this are matte. They're not shiny as on the Madeline. They're not brown, as on the Lady Day. It's perfect in my book. Very, VERY happy!
A HUGE thank you to Chiffon Cupcake from J Crew Aficionada who reviewed this coat. I thought it was cute, but didn't realize it came in Ivory. Thank you, thank you !!!!!!!!!

J Crew - Teagan ruffle swiss top blouse
However, it's not for me. I felt short and squat in it. As you can see, it's definitely see-thru. I think you need a cami under it and cannot go with just a bra. Too see-thru.
J Crew - Corrine cardigan
IRL - Just meh, imo. Petites will need to cuff the sleeve to prevent ape arms. It didn't feel particularly cozy or great on the body. I wasn't impressed. And look at those wrinkles on my right arm. Immediate wrinklage is not good. I can see it being a good layering piece, though. I do like the stand-up collar. Can't recall if you can fold it flat or if it wants to stay up full time. I also can't recall the exact thickness, but on vague recollect I'd say it's medium weight. I took this photo almost a month ago. Forgot about this pic and the sweater. It's a pass for me at $99.99 and at $69.99. That's just me. ETA: I know what it is. It reminds me of something I'd see at Old Navy.

UPS - holiday token for your driver?
I'm thinking of getting my UPS driver a certificate to Target for the holidays. I figure not everyone goes to Starbucks, but everyone goes to Target. We have 2 in our area and I know that she lives around here. We're not overly friendly, but we're getting there. Lord knows she's been by my house enough.
Some companies have limitations on what employees can accept. What do you think is an appropriate amount? Are you giving a gift to your UPS driver?
J Crew - large leather Thompson tote
IRL - Love the yellow. IMO it looks good with the following coat colors: chocolate, ivory, gray, leopard (!). I also ordered it in ivory and hopefully that will arrive soon. I think I am going to end up keeping the yellow tote only, but we'll see. The ivory may sleigh me.
The interior is unlined. That may be a drawback for some. Also, it doesn't have a flat bottom. The tote is sewn so you can lay items at the bottom, but the seams that would create a true, flat bottom aren't there. Neither of these facts bother me. I am thrilled with my patent Candance tote and if this one serves me similarly (sans lining), I will be thrilled.
Nice interior pocket and an additional pouch for your ID, change, etc...
I remember looking for a smaller leather lunch tote years ago and the price was around $50, $60. So this is a great deal at $88 and I think it's worth the original retail price. Again, I'm not an expert in leather but my father used to make bags and this is on par w/the quality of leather he used. I expect this will wear well. I definitely need to put conditioning oil on it and protective spray to help it stay nice, but I see getting a long life out of it.
ETA: Great packaging job. I was very impressed when I received it. It felt like a Collection piece could be inside. Go J Crew!
J Crew Kelly shirt in white
I love the fit and how it feels on the body. It's slimming. FYI, this is a size S and I am a 34C. It's has nice long shirttails. They look good out, but are also long enough to tuck in and that's a great option. The white is crisp and clean. Not blinding diamond white. Just a nice, true white.
J Crew - Harlowe blouse in fresh guava
It's been reviewed a few times, but here is my take on it. The color is like the website, but not. It's silk, so it has a sheen and I think that bumps up the color intensity more. It's really a pretty shade of peachy pink, but it's not subtle. I think long dark hair would balance the color out, take it down a notch.
The fresh guava is the same in both the Harlowe (left) and the Kelly blouse (right). The silk, as I said, makes the color stronger. They are the same color in person.
Adding a necklace makes a huge difference. It's no longer just a block of color. I think it's ok/pretty good with my skin color. It's definitely shouting -- hey look at me, instead of -- hey look at her nice skin.
Adding a black blazer makes a big difference. I also think this color could work with a deep navy suit.
I love the fit and I love the feel of the silk on my skin. It's pretty good for chicks with small pooches. I aaalmost grabs at mine, but it falls over it ok. I am a 34C and this is a size 4. The blouse is 23" from shoulder to hem, measuring down the front. I was concerned about the fact that it buttons down the back. I was able to easily undo the top 2 buttons, pull the blouse overhead and rebutton it.
12/13/08 ETA: I received the snow leopard Harlow and it's beautiful. Not for me, though. The pattern is too busy for me and makes me look extra big. Something about the sheen of it doesn't work. I really think hair is a factor and if I had long hair, it would work. My short, sometimes spiky, hair competes with prints. So it's me, not the blouse.
12/13/08 Regarding fit: I tried it on again and the 4 extends a bit past my shoulders. I wish I had the size 2 to compare. I think a 2 would still fit in the bust, but the darts at the bottom (about 5" in length) would grab at my stomach. I think I'm happy with the 4. I'd say if you are on the bustier side, it's TTS for you. If you are thin boned and/or are on the smaller side in the chest department, size down one.
J Crew - Isabella heels in plum
If you look to the right of the shoe you'll see gaping. That bugged. I supposed it would be taken care of if I went for my true size, 7.5. These are an 8.
The burgundy contrast looked more brown than burgundy or purple. That was a disappointment.
J Crew heels are hit or miss for sizing, as are there other shoes. I thought I'd need an 8 in the pumps, but these are too big. I tried shoe inserts but they didn't help.
Overall I'd say these are fairly comfortable, even though I wasn't in the proper size. I'm not a leather expert, but I have reservations about how long the suede will last on these. You're not supposed to put leather in plastic and these are in plastic in the box. I'm not sure for how long and if that's affected the suede quality or not. It looks good from afar, but upon close inspection it doesn't seem as though it will hold up for a long time. I definitely would not wear these with longer jeans because the jean material would brush against the suede. I also would not drive with these on. I would wear another pair of shoes while driving and then switch just before getting out of the car. With the suede covered heel you're bound to get some brushing marks from the floorboards. Also bad. These are going back.

J Crew - decade dot jacket
Real life shot. What you can't tell is how pretty it is in person. It doesn't come through in photography. I guess it's sort of the golden cypress color but more gold with a bright turquoise woven in very discreetly. I kept thinking mermaid. So I guess if a mermaid put on an upscale outfit, she might choose this as part of the ensem. ;-)
On me and I was too lazy to try on anything underneath. What is up w/J Crew and the boxy cuts on their jackets? The stance is nice, but the length looks whacked off in person. I suppose a higher cut jacket can give the illusion of longer legs, but it can also create gorilla arms. That's just going to be a distraction. The jacket wasn't scratchy or uncomfortable, but the fit was just too boxy for my taste. I think I prefer a fit that is more generous than the more fitten or shrunken look but not too long. And definitely not boxy. A petite cut/option would definitely work better for those who need it.
J Crew - sequin striped tee
J Crew's sequin striped tee -- I thought this was online or in the catalog so I didn't note the price or the style number. I saw it in San Francisco yesterday. I have *not* seen it in Walnut Creek just yet. Maybe it's part of the new rollout coming on Monday/Tuesday (12/7-12/8) of next week. I think they also had yellow and maybe black. It looked so big on the hanger. I was surprised a small fit as it did. I have to say that it's comfortable on. Another thing it has going for it is that the sequins go all the way around the shirt. If I recall it is around $128, but I could be off. It wasn't cheap. I wouldn't buy this one. Not even on sale. I guess the black could be cute under a long black cardigan but I prefer the tissue sequin henley for that.
Tissue etincelle tee (11056)
J Crew - boucle' wool scarf coat
J Crew's boucle' wool scarf coat (10292, 10993 for petite, $350) loomed so bright and so large in size from the rack that I was going to ignore it.
I thought it might be really obnoxious, but I decided to try it on for the blog. I didn't recall seeing this online and my instinct was to tie it like so...
Notice how big the cuff is. I am usually a 4 or 6P. This is a size 2. I would probably order a 4P. I wonder if the cuff is a bit smaller in the 4P. I realize that's the look of the jacket. However, if I purchased this I would consider having it tailored to be a bit smaller.
I would not wear it like this. You might be able to fold one scarf side over the other and pin it with a brooch. That could look cute. However, imo the scarf really begs to be draped in some way around or at the neck.
I was told by an SA it came in golden cypress online, which I do not see. I only see the bright berry as an option. Very cute, very comfortable and cozy. They got this boucle' right, unlike the boucle' on the Penny.
ETA: This is a lighterweight coat. It's definitely meant to be layered or worn on a cool fall/spring day. It's lined, but would not help you one bit in super cold weather.
J Crew -- If you're listening, please tell your phone reps how to properly pronounce boucle' as it is not pron. "bookle."
J Crew - Wool shift dress
I went into a b&m the other day and saw it on the rack. I tried on a 4. I like the fit even though my measurements are off right now. The stomach is a smidge snug but that's my fault; not that of the dress. I'd say the dress fits TTS.
I was concerned about the gathering in the rear:
It didn't poof too much and create extra booty or anything, imo. However, I have straight hips. The dress asked me for a belt. I obliged and tried on the thin patent belt. That didn't work, but it might have been the color. There are no belt loops so the belt has to be right width and fit to work. On the upside the dress has pockets and you can actually use them. You know...some pockets they are adding to dresses are just not really functional. These are.
The dress is definitely a lighterweight wool. This is great in that it will be more warm than a cotton or cotton blend, but for some reason it doesn't look especially dressy. For that reason, I cannot see wearing it tank style as a little black dress. I see wearing it more with a blouse or tissue turtleneck underneath. Or with a cardigan over it. When mine arrives in the mail I will try it with a necklace only, but I expect to want something underneath or over it. This is all from recollect & seen in the tight quarters of a b&m dressing room so we'll have to see when I have it in hand.

As it is with many people from Red Lion, that date is permanently etched into my psyche as the worst day of my life.
I'm a few years older than my brother, so I was in the high school's home room, "locked down" with the other students. Information about exactly what happened was scarce. The front office told us over the intercom that there was "an incident" at the junior high involving an administrator and a student. We found out about the specifics before anybody else in the high school because the assistant principal's son was in my home room and the school's administrators called the room to tell him that his father was OK, but that Dr. Segro was not. One other student was shot.
I don't have the best memory in the world - at least not when it comes to names or numbers - but I remember every thought, every movement, every piece of furniture in that room that morning. And one thing I remember, quite vividly, was going out of my mind because I was positive in my terror that my brother had been shot.
In 2003, cell phones weren't as ubiquitous as they are today. I'm sure every kid in that school today has one, but that day only one girl was lucky enough to have a cell phone. Like I said, I have a pretty terrible memory - earlier this week I forgot my boss's name during a meeting with her. But almost a decade later, I can remember that phone. It was a blue Nokia 5110.
She used it to call home and tell her mom that she was OK. The phone got passed around the room and people took turns calling home. When the phone reached me, I wasn't sure what to do.
I'm not a very religious man. I don't go to church as often as my mom would like, but I do believe in God, or at least some kind of higher power. You see, there are two things that have happened to me in my life that make me sure that there's something out there:
The first was when I was dumped by a girlfriend that I was head over heels for. I had been visiting her at her college, Shippensburg University, and was totally blindsided by the breakup. I hit the bar and I hit it hard. I drank with a purpose, and by the time the bar closed, I realized I didn't have a place to stay in town anymore. I was miserable and upset and all I wanted to do was sleep, and I wanted to do it in my own bed.
I decided to risk everything and make the 75-mile drive down the Turnpike, blackout drunk, at midnight. I stumbled to my Jeep, reached into my pocket, clicked the door opener, sat down and went to jam the key into the ignition. But the key wasn't there. Every other key and keychain was still in place. The only one missing was the key needed to start my car and drive, very drunkenly, home.
I could have killed myself or someone else that night. I'd never taken my keys out of my pocket that night so I don't know how I misplaced it. I scoured the ground around my car. I searched the bar. I asked the bartenders. Nobody found a key. Have you ever put a car key on a key ring? One of those big, fat keys? It's a pain in the butt, and those keys don't just fall off of a key ring. Instead, I called a friend and begged her for a ride home. She agreed to it, and she probably saved my life that night. To this day, I can't explain how that key went missing.
The other reason I believe in God - or god, or whatever - is because of what happened when I was handed that phone on April 23, 2003.
Sheer muscle memory made me dial my home phone number. Nobody should have been home: my mom and dad would have left for work at least an hour earlier, but that was the only number I could remember in the moment. I should have reached an answering machine.
Instead, my dad had decided he was going to sleep in and take his time getting in to work. He was going to slow things down, try and relax by taking an extra-long, hot shower because there was nobody else home and he could use all the hot water he damn well pleased.
When I dialed my house that day, my dad answered the phone. This is where my memory, which up until that moment is clear as a bell, fails. I don't remember what either of us said, but I remember him telling me that my brother was home and that he was safe. Just minutes after my father stepped out of the shower, my brother burst in the front door. My folks' house is only a few blocks from the junior and senior high schools, and in the scramble to get out of the cafeteria that day, he decided to simply run home. I thank God that my father was home that day to help comfort my brother.
Sheets fired directly over my brother's head. He felt the heat and saw the burst of fire that was the muzzle flash of the .44 magnum, "the Dirty Harry gun," as he described it to me, as it passed right over his head. He remembers looking back at the shooter after he fired the first round and seeing the look on his face. He described it as the look of someone coming out of a dream - a look of confusion, of realization. My brother was halfway out of the cafeteria when he heard the second shot. He didn't look back to check who had been shot because he didn't have to. He knew Jimmy Sheets had taken his own life.
Nearly a decade has passed since that day, and it feels like little has changed. The cycle of violence continues unabated. "Sandy Hook" joins "Columbine," "Virginia Tech," "Lockheed Martin," "Aurora," "Fort Hood," "Tucson," and "Amish schoolhouse" in our cultural lexicon.
At this point, I think it's clear that when it comes to gun violence, nothing in this country is going to change until we all take a good, hard look at ourselves and our values and make a decision about how much is too much. I don't purport to have the answer, and I don't think anybody's ever going to come up with a solution that everyone will be willing to accept. However, I feel strongly that when it comes to firearms in America, the status quo isn't working.
I don't advocate an outright ban on firearms; history has shown that outright prohibition - be it for alcohol or drugs - doesn't work very well in America. But I think anybody who doesn't see a correlation between gun crimes and the proliferation of guns in the United States, where, according to the Small Arms Survey, there are 89 handguns for every 100 residents, is delusional.
If now isn't the time to reconsider our national obsession with guns, I can't imagine one better. Sadly, that's always the sentiment after a tragedy of this magnitude. We said it after Columbine. It was said after Virginia Tech. It was said after Red Lion. If people aren't able to put aside their personal feelings and prejudices, it's just a matter of time until the name of another town, business or school becomes synonymous with death and destruction. And, as I learned almost a decade ago, it can happen anywhere at any time.

Surface acoustic wave touch screen monitor is made using ultrasonic wave technology over the touch screen panel. Technically, the acoustic waves are sent across the display panel with a series of reflectors and transducers, invisibly creating a grid across the touch screen panel which can't be seen with a naked eye.
Surface acoustic wave display provides perfect image clarity because it uses pure glass construction. Apart from its superior image clarity, the resolution and light transmission is also higher as compare to other monitors. It's designed originally for ATMs, kiosks, amusement parks and banking applications. Basically, it is made especially for places where there can be lots of visitors everyday or in an area that consider not to be harmful for SAW touch screen monitor. The interactive acoustic wave touch screen might be use for a photo booth or hospital environment as well. These displays exist only in smaller screens and may not easily to be found in screen sizes over 30 inches.
