Respond to Review of Dolma
by mikebinos
Review: The idea of Dolma was a lot more exciting than the food itself. An all you can eat vegetarian buffet with Belgian/French flavors was something my wife and I thought sounded like a good evening, but when we went the first night of our trip we were told we'd need reservations, so we ended up making reservations for the next night while there. Dolma is not cheap, but it is all you can eat (but how much will you really end up eating?), so I guess that's to be expected. The food wasn't bad. There was quiche and other French-influenced dishes, but it wasn't the best vegetarian dinner you can get in Brussels. However, the neighborhood has plenty of bars around to start (or end) the evening, and the restaurant itself is very nice.

Kim Kiri reveals symptoms of hair loss, "I've practiced 3 days for 30 seconds of 2YOON stage"Monday, February 04, 2013 / View Comments
Gagman Kim Kiri has revealed that he faced hair loss symptoms.
During their family concert '2013 United Cube Concert-Cube Party", Kim Kiri expressed, "I have to perform for 2YOON's stage for less than 30 seconds" and, "Because of this 30 seconds, I've worked hard for about 3 days. I faced some symptoms of hair loss because of stress."
He then continued, "I'm really bad at dancing, but I've practiced hard since we wished to do it together" and, "During the performance, I worried if I'm just a nobody", revealing his inner thoughts.
Kim Kiri further stated, "I don't perform on other stages other than 2YOON's" and, "It's short, but I hope it will come out strong".

The Town Center of Virginia Beach,222 Central Park Avenue,Virginia Beach,VA 23462
Each year we join some of our Armed Services YMCA branches in executing the time honored tradition known as the Father Daughter Ball. There is nothing more special than military dads in full dress uniform making their little girls feel like a princess for a day. The time spent together gives them a chance to bond and connect without the distractions of everyday life and makes for memories they will never forget.
We are proud to be a part of these memories and invite you and your daughters to join us from 6 to 9 pm on June 25th at the beautiful Westin Hotel in Town Center, Virginia Beach for "A Night in Paris". This year's theme promises to whisk you away to the city of lights for fun filled evening with dinner, dancing and prizes. This event is for military dads only and daughters ages 3-18.
Dress for the event is formal so that means dress uniform (summer) for the dad and a gown or fancy dress for the girls.
The Father-Daughter Ball 2014 was a sold out event! Thank you to all of the fathers, daughters, volunteers, sponsors and staff who made this beautiful event one that impacts the local military community in such a positive way.

Omaeda is the vice-captain of squad two. He is an arrogant, vain and gluttonous man with very few redeeming features. He believes himself to be extremely attractive and refuses to accept that he is going bald. Unlike his captain, Soifon, Omaeda is somewhat cowardly and would generally prefer to run from a fight than engage in battle, though he has an intense loyalty to Soifon, and will do anything to help her. His zanpakutou is named Gegetsuburi.

Anyone wanna see some romance develop with his guy? No? Que lastima.

WASHINGTON - A heads-up to those of you still fretting about the alleged evils of gay marriage: The parade has moved on. Try as you may to vote, or legislate your way out of a country that solemnizes such relationships, committed gay couples are already giving birth to, adopting and fostering children. Whether or not same-sex marriage becomes widely legal in America, same-sex parenting is a done deal.

We currently deploy web applications by creating a database and running SQL scripts through query analyzer. Then we copy the output from "publish website" and set up that website in IIS.
We have seen websetup in visual studio, but that part seems to be thinly documented. For example, we are not clear how to ask the user for IP and password of SQL server. We also tend to get websites deployed this way coming up under folders like http://example.com/project, instead of just http://example.com.
Then there are issues with AJAX.Net not being installed or some or the other patch not applied.
So far, we have physical access to the servers. Pretty soon though we are going to be shipping CDROMs. What is the practical tradeoff between manual intervention and automation?

Short RP Strategy
For long RPs, we advised you to read the entire passage, make a sketchy outline, then check out the questions. We suggested that you follow those steps in that order because it'd be impossible to keep an 800-word passage and eight to thirteen questions in your head.
But short RPs are short and have just two questions. That means you can comfortably fit the entire passage and the two questions in your head. It also means you don't have to worry about keeping an outline, since you're dealing with only one paragraph. The change in the length of the passage therefore flips your whole strategy on its head: You should read the questions before you read the passage. That way, you'll have the exact questions you need to answer in mind as you read the passage.
- Read the two questions but not the answer choices.
- Read the passage, with special focus on answering the two questions.
- Come up with answers for the two questions in your own words.
- Match your answer to the correct answer.
Now let's see what happens when we apply this method to the two questions from our sample short RP.
Sample Short RP Answers and Explanations
Here's the first question again:
Let's say you ignore our four-step method and read through this passage, skipping step 1. You'd have no clue what the questions are, so you'd just breeze by the phrase about the "person in the middle of nowhere." Then you'd get to the first question and would have to go back to reread the entire sentence containing the "person in the middle of nowhere" phrase, wasting precious time.
Instead, if you had followed step 1 and read the questions first, you'd know what you were looking for. You'd then read the passage and keep an eye out for that particular phrase (step 2). You'd notice that the phrase "not even a person in the middle of nowhere would be surprised to see a plane in the sky" emphasizes how common airplanes are now, and it draws a contrast to a hundred years ago when scientists did not believe such flight was possible. That means the author uses that phrase to point out that today, no one, anywhere would be surprised to see a plane in the sky. That's your version of the answer to this technique question (step 3). Now take a look at the real answer choices and try to find one that matches yours closely (step 4). E matches almost perfectly. The author uses the reference to the "person in the middle of nowhere" to indicate the scope of the change from the days when airplanes were foreign to almost everyone.
Now, for the second question from the sample passage:
Reading the questions first (step 1) can save you lots of time on EXCEPT questions. This themes and arguments question asks you to find the statement that the author would not agree with, so as you read the passage with the question in mind, you can check off the statements that the passage confirms as you read. Notice that on EXCEPT questions like this one, you have to read the answer choices first as well, since the question alone does not give you enough information to work with as you read the passage (step 2). Using this method will actually allow you to skip step 3 and 4, since the answer will be the only unchecked answer choice that remains after you've read the passage and checked off the statements with which the author would agree.
The author's main argument in this passage is that air travel has become entirely commonplace even though the invention of flight only happened 100 years ago. You can knock out A, since the author would certainly agree that air travel is a recent invention. Check off B since the author references the Wright brothers' famous first flight directly in the passage. D and E can get checks too, because they cover material that the author clearly supports in the passage: that airplanes can be seen even in the middle of nowhere and that the word airplane only came into common usage recently. Only C stands out as directly against the author's main theme and argument: rather than remaining exclusively for the wealthy, air travel can now be enjoyed by almost anyone. After having read the passage and checked off answer choices as you read, only C would remain, and that's the correct answer.

LaCie debuts stackable LEGO-shaped hard dives
updated 09:00 am EST, Tue November 22, 2005
LaCie Brick disk drives
today introduced what it called a "playful new set" of stackable hard drives in vibrant white, red and blue colors: the LaCie Brick Desktop Edition, which uses a 3.5-inch drive and offers capacities from 160GB to 500GB and Mobile Edition, which uses a smaller 2.5-inch drive and is available in capacities from 40GB to 120GB. LaCie says it teamed up with renowned designer Ora-�to to create colorful building block-shaped hard drives to "make everyday storage and backup not only functional, but fun." LaCie's Bricks offer nearly effortless setup and feature either a USB 2.0 connection (both desktop and mobile versions) or a dual USB/FireWire 400 interface (mobile version).
The 300GB and 500GB versions of the LaCie Brick Desktop Edition include an automatic thermo-regulated smart fan that changes airflow based on need. Lower capacity models are fanless for near-silent operation, according to the company.
"LaCie has always pushed the boundaries of timeless hard drive design and performance. This new unique Brick range shows our playful side," says Olivier Mirloup, LaCie Senior Product Manager. "Now storage is as fun as a child's game with bright, primary hues that add color to your digital life."
LaCie Brick hard drives are available for pre-order today at the LaCie Store online and will be widely available through LaCie's dealer network by the end of December 2005. LaCie Bricks ship with LaCie One Click Backup Software for both Mac and PC platforms as well as LaCie Silverlining and SilverKeeper drive management and advanced backup utilities for Macs.
Pricing for the Desktop models are $120 (160GB/white), $150 (250GB/red), $200 (300GB/Blue), and $400 (500GB/Red), while the mobile version is available with a USB 2.0 interface in 40GB ($120/white), 80GB ($150/Blue), and 120GB ($300/red). The 40GB dual interface mobile version is the same price, while the other models are priced $20 and $30 more, respectively. The red 250GB Brick is in stock
now and other Desktop Editions will ship end of December. Mobile Editions
will ship January 2006, according to the company.

Yes. What is you light source, your paper, your filtration, and your enlarging lens (and aperture)? I think your answer will be in there somewhere.
I tested the residual violet/UV thing for one of my enlarging papers in this thread (skip to post #56 for the test but there is some good discussion beforehand on whether or not there is even significant UV in the system):
Even if this issue existed with Marco's paper, it would affect visual focusing the same way as with a grain magnifier. Marco, if you want to rule the supposed/possible residual UV thing out, repeat your test at the lowest contrast setting (ie max yellow) and see if there is any difference in the results. Try it at maximum contrast for comparison.
Based on everything said so far, if you are certain there is no drift in your lens stage I'd say there must be something wrong with the magnifiers, as strange as this seems.
2mm is significant at the negative plane, much less so at the paper plane.
It is a strange and somewhat alarming situation. Interestingly, I have consistently found when I focus by eye and then reach for the grain magnifier, the grain is already sharp. It surprises me every time. I still always use the grain magnifier but a few times I've tried an actual print both ways and couldn't see a difference. I've never seen the visually focused print look sharper the way Marco has though. Very puzzling.
I use a Peak Critical magnifier and it is spot on. Certain cheaper units were OK, but not as useful for
checking corners of the field. But when comparing respective magnifiers make sure they are all on
lens axis. The better units should match. I've seen cases where budget magnifiers either didn't use
a front-surface mirror or attached it with some kind of double-faced tape that eventually shrank in
thickness. But maybe you've got a bad magnifier or two and should test them with live printing, provided you do rest them on a sheet of the same thickness and apply perfectly calibrated enlgr
settings and a very precise lens at optimum aperture. Forget the blue filter thing and the nonsense
that spacing at the easel doesn't matter. You can choose to shave with a double-bit axe too, but
it might make a difference in your appearance afterwards.
[QUOTE=Marco Buonocore;1409273]
Oh, and tkamiya: I'm sure that the focus column is not slipping. The Durst 138s is a beautiful machine. I routinely leave a negative in the enlarger for a weekend, and come back to make more prints a few days later and the grain is still as sharp as when I left it. I believe I can almost 100% rule that out of the equation.
Thanks for all your thoughts on the matter.[/QUOTE
I am confused again. When you say the grain is as sharp as when you left it, is this a grain sharp image by eye? If it is a grain sharp image by a focuser then the print should be pin sharp unless the negative is out of focus. Were you saying that the print focused by eye is pin sharp or just better than those focused by the grain focusers?
If the neg is out of focus then maybe the eye which cannot use grain for sharpness is able to correct as far as possible an error in focus in the negative whereas the grain focuser simply sharpens the grain and makes the print focus worse but of course cannot sharpen the lack of focus in the neg itself.
Have you tried other negs that you know have produced sharp prints in the past using the focusers?
Does the magnification built into the grain focuser have the effect of magnifying any focus error in the instrument?
By that I mean, if the grain focuser is 2mm out, and it magnifies by a factor of 10, is the result the same as a 20mm error in placement of the baseboard?
If you think the difference in paper thickness at the base board makes any difference, try to work out how small a change in the negative to lens distance would need to be in order to change the focus point by the paper thickness (or even by 2mm). It is a few microns. You cannot adjust the focus of an enlarger that accurately.
I guess its just a habit then for me, I still use a sheet of paper (hey it also protects my easel from the metal grain finders!) and if using my Peak 1, I just leave the blue filter in, constantly keeping it in the open position collects dust, and closing and opening it to often shifts the focus at the eye piece.
Also, for the OP, you do not focus with the red filter do you? no one has brought up that point, but I have heard people doing this in their darkroom work flow. I don't know why they would, but some people seem to do it.
Here's a thought.
Focusing and printing wide open... Your eye's iris will close down considerably, compared to normal practice where I focus with the lens in same aperture I plan to print, which I try to select as the optimum aperture for the lens.
Mark Crabtree is right: I should have posted my specs a bit clearer off the bat.
Light source is tungsten - one of the Durst Atlas bulbs made for the 138s. I use all sorts of paper. This test was done on Ilford Warmtone Multigrade RC. I did not use any filtration. When I do use filters, I have an Ilford set of gels. I never focus with filters in (that included the red safelight filter). My lens is one of the newer Schneider Componon-S 80mm with the focus lever on it. I focus wide open. In the future I will focus at a working aperture.
The reason I conducted this test with the lens wide open was that I was hoping it would show a worst case scenario insofar as focus was confused.
The filtration issue - blue filter, yellow filter - doesn't quite make sense to me. Here's the thing: when I focus with my eyes, it's very sharp on the easel. When I focus with the grain focuser, it's sharp but not *very* sharp on the easel. The prints I made on RC paper confirmed that to me. At the moment, this is all I'm worried about.
And pentaxuser: to avoid confusion - if I focus the image with a grain focuser and the grain is sharp (or it appears to be sharp!), and I leave the enlarger for a weekend and come back and check the focus with the grain focuser again, it is still sharp. What I'm saying is that the focus column on the Durst 138s doesn't budge. It's got locking focus and it does its job very well.
The idea of focusing with white light and then printing with yellow filtration was to help rule out the possible violet/UV issue, which probably doesn't exist anyway. The yellow filtration (in your case, Ilford #00) would expose your paper mostly to green rather than blue and shorter wavelengths, so theoretically it would mostly take non-visible light out of the equation as a possible source of error. However as I said even if this problem exists, which it likely doesn't, one would expect it to cause the same type of focus error with or without the magnifier, so to me it would not help explain why the prints focused without the magnifier are sharper.
As for your Componon-s lens, I would be very surprised if there was a focus shift when stopping down to the working aperture. You should be able to focus wide open.

GOOD Mining Exploration Inc. is a privately-owned Junior Mining Exploration Company established and registered in the Province of Ontario, Canada, in October of 2012. The Company is involved primarily in prospecting, staking of claims, and the subsequent registration of those claims to acquire the mineral rights on high potential parcels of land in Northern Ontario. Further to that, advanced exploration techniques such as geophysics, diamond core drilling, channeling, pitting and trenching are executed to quantify potential resources.
Our primary goal is to locate gold deposits, as well as other precious metals, rare earth elements, base metals and precious gems. Once a viable parcel of land is discovered, staked, and registered with the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, we then complete our consultation with the local Aboriginal Groups and put in place the necessary agreements, and also apply for an early exploration plan or permit. Once approved, sampling begins, which includes, pitting, trenching, diamond core drilling, grab sampling, placer mining and sluicing. High probability samples are then delivered to registered labs in Ontario to produce certified precious metals and multi-element reports, which are then used in technical reports and advanced studies on the claims, for future potential mining operations.

Just like they would have jumped on his bandwagon had he been able to engineer the upset.
Last week was a perfect example. Mallett made some legitimate NFL throws in the comeback victory over Georgia, but the same concerns that I (and more importantly, NFL scouts) have voiced about him in the past were evident when one breaks down the film rather than just peek at the box score.
Those same issues were even more evident against the Tide.
Mallett, despite what some commentators might tell you, has the marginal footwork most passers of his height have. His first of three interceptions against the Tide showed him throwing flat-footed, rather than stepping into the throw. His second was arguably his worst throw of the game -- high and behind his intended target. His third, off of his back foot, was an inexcusably lazy toss that he tried to throw away. Some quarterbacks don't have the arm strength to throw it out of bounds 40 yards away. Mallett could do it from 70. And he'd tell you the same.
As Alabama turned up the pressure in the second half, Mallett was forced to move his feet to either step up in the pocket or avoid a pass rush. When he did so, his accuracy plummeted. And that was predictable.
Now, before you claim that I'm simply jumping on Mallett now after his struggles against what likely will be the toughest defense he faces this season, know that I've been grading Mallett the same way for a long time now.
Here is what I said during my preview of the SEC in July :
One final note on the SEC prospects... I typically reserve comments for senior prospects, but Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett is an obvious NFL prospect regardless of when he leaves the Razorbacks. However, I wasn't as wowed by Mallett as some apparently are. His 6-6, 238 pound frame is considered a positive by most, though his long legs and only moderate foot speed/balance concern me. Mallett has a gun and can make some dazzling throws, but at least some of his success has to be attributed to Bobby Petrino's wide-open offense. Remember, this is the same offense that convinced many of us that former Louisville standout Brian Brohm was one day going to be an NFL star. With two years of remaining eligibility, Mallett has plenty of time to iron out some wrinkles to his game, but I, for one, feel he's being a bit overrated right now...
Mallett is a talented passer with a big arm. When he's protected, he's go the intermediate and long accuracy to shred defenses just like Drew Bledsoe did for the Washington State Cougars and early in his NFL career with the New England Patriots. That said, this is a different NFL than the one Bledsoe did his damage. Defenses force quarterbacks to move their feet and adjust quickly in today's game. I haven't yet seen that or the short range accuracy Mallett will need to be consistently successful.
Is he talented? Sure. Any quarterback with his arm strength and the ability to complete 75% of his passes in the first three quarters (for 313 yards and TD) against Alabama certainly is talented.
But, he's not the elite prospect some have characterized him as. And it didn't take 4-10 passing for 44 yards and two terrible interceptions in the 4th quarter to prove it.

The chapters walk the aspiring craftsperson step-by-step through the entire process, from where and how to shop for wire and beads, to choosing the right kind and gauge of wire, and what tools of the trade they need to borrow or buy. No background is assumed; skills build upon each other as the book progresses. The basic jewelry components, such as loops, jump rings, findings, and connectors, are covered in turn. These lessons are then put to use with a selection of six projects, from jewelry to more unusual uses for metal embellishments such as greeting cards. Filled with lessons, tips, and resources from start to finish, this manual is a primer for the true beginner.

The book is a solid starter and reference text but is weakened by the fact that it is not coupled with a set containing a quick start guide and the components for making some basic jewelry pieces to provide immediate gratification and reinforcement of what is being taught. Read full review

Parma, Ohio (WVLT/CBS) -- In one Ohio town, it's not the high gas prices people are talking about at a local gas station, it's a mysterious image caught on the station's security camera.
The eerie blue image was caught on tape last Sunday.
The station's owner says the image sits still for half an hour, then flies away.
Everyone seems to have an opinion as to what it is.
They've had theories ranging from an angel, to the gas station being built on an old Indian burial ground.

Anne Hathaway Pregnant With Her First Child
Posted on Fri Nov 27th, 2015 1:45pm PDT By X17 Staff
One day after Thanksgiving, it's been revealed that the Oscar winner and her husband, Adam Schulman, are expecting their first child, reports E! News.
"Anne is in her second trimester and feeling great," a source tells the outlet, which published a photo of the star looking like she had a baby bump earlier this week.
Two months ago we saw the star at LAX with what looked like the beginnings of a baby bump -- and it looks like we were right!
Anne and Adam dated for four years before getting married in September 2012.
In a 2013 interview with Vogue, the Les Miserables actress gushed about her desire for children.
"Oh, my God. I want to be a mother, and I anticipate loving my children quite fiercely. I think about it all the time, though it's a silly thing to think about because the kind of mother I'll be depends on the kind of children I have. I can't wait to meet them," Anne said.

January 23, 1912 ~ March 19, 2010
Elizabeth was born in Twin Bridges, Montana, January 23, 1912 to James L. Martin and Jesse Redfield Martin. She had an older brother, Elno, and two younger sisters, Merle and Gladys. Elizabeth graduated from Mount Ellis Academy in the class of 1929. At Mt. Ellis she met the love of her life, Clifford Rouse whom she married Thanksgiving day of 1931. They had three boys, Lester, Charles and David, that they raised while Clifford was an ordained minister with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. They served in the central California, Arizona and Upper Columbia conferences of that church. Elizabeth was the minister's wife back when that was a full time occupation. She enjoyed her role whether it was to comfort a hurting person, accompany her husband on visits to church members, conducting a cooking school or reassuring her sons that all was well when their father had to rush off to be with a dying church member at 3 am. They lived in many locations in Montana, Arizona, California, Washington and Alaska. Elizabeth and Clifford were married for 52 years until his death in 1983. Elizabeth spent the last 25 years living in College Place, near her two sisters. Clifford had been a pastor of the Walla Walla City Seventh-day Adventist church and Elizabeth was a member there.
She is survived by two half sisters in Northern California; three sons, Lester of Walla Walla, Charles (wife Joan) of Sunnyside, and David (wife Nancy) of Santa Cruz, California; two nieces and four nephews, numerous great nieces and nephews, twelve grandchildren, eleven great grandchildren, and seven great great grandchildren.

From Marty Dalton
Posted January 23, 2013 at 06:42 AM
Basically I need to know if a 1/32, 1/16 or 1/8th size would be appropriate.
I would appreciate input from anyone with experience starting a young child out on the violin
Good luck!
The principle used in "fitting" a violin is to try to match the relative size to the child such that when fully grown the proportion (particularly of the left arm) will be the same. At least that's the principle I tried to follow when I had little students. (More later.*)
The actual method used is to place the violin under the students chin (in playing position) and select the size instrument that the child can completely enclose the scroll with the left hand. As a teacher, I'm pretty sure you know this, so I apologize if I've stated the obvious.
*You can't know what size and proportions your child will be when fully grown, but I would also consider the parents' size and the gender of the child. So for a child likely to grow longer than average arm length, I would opt for a slightly smaller starting instrument than the "hand around the scroll test" would indicate.
One other thing - try to get a chinrest that fits your child comfortably.
As far as sizing, Andy wrote "The actual method used is to place the violin under the students chin (in playing position) and select the size instrument that the child can completely enclose the scroll with the left hand." I don't think that is necessarily standard at all. At least one of those first 5 Suzuki teachers in the US (Marge Aber) recommended the crease on the wrist be at the end of the scroll. That is where we sized all of our kids and my wife's students. Don't recall what John Kendall, Bill Starr etc recommended.
Enjoy - there are many music activities you can do at a young age before the instrument is introduced.
When you get to the point that you want to size for a violin you will find this video helpful.
Enjoy the journey.
Heather Broadbent

and/or to my youtube channel
Anyway, if your daughter is ready, as others suggested, I would say go to a music studio/store and they will find the right size for your daughter. It's hard to equate a size to age, only because children come in various sizes. A 2 year old in 90th%tile might be a size 1/8, while a child petite in 5%tile might be a 1/16.
I'm sure your daughter will enjoy playing and you'll enjoy seeing a child holding a miniature violin playing "music" on this tiny instrument.
Mr. Fellows, I know your daughters and they're all fantastic musicians. I will definately take your advice. Thanks!
Take a yardstick, ask your child to hold the whole arm flat, angle 45 degrees to the body (as if she were holding an imaginary violin) and measure from the neck where you would put end pin to the wrist crease (where the wrist ends and hand begins). That's the length of the instrument from end pin to the end of the scroll you are looking for your child. Disregard the fractional numbers, go by the physical length of the instrument.
Small fractional sizes are not absolutely standardized but I found following measures from experience, it might depend on the manufacturer:
1/16: 36-37cm/cca 14 inch
1/10: 40.5cm/16 inch
1/8: 43-44cm/17 inch
I have no experience with 1/32 size violin.
Unless your 2 and 1/2 year old has arms of gibbon, she will probably end up with 1/32 or 1/16, my 7-year-old still plays 1/10 and we are still waiting for her arm to grow that one inch to switch to 1/8 (she is not tall).
Good brand is Yamaha V5 SC (size) and strings D'Addario Prelude, they make them 1/16 size, do not know about 1/32. They sound very decent even on a 1/16 instrument. The good setup is essential, either you have good eyes and fingers or ask a luthier, to do a setup in those minute pegboxes is very demanding.
Best if you find a Suzuki teacher around (not many other teachers are willing to take on such young kids), your kid will be probably given cardboard or foam violin for the start and be given the huge reward of real violin once she manages her posture, violin/bow hold and rhythm. The Suzuki teacher will be also your best source of information.
Good Luck.
She uses a small, plastic violin which is a little bit too big for her, which is why I wanted to know how big the 1/32 and 1/16 sizes are, but you've answered that question.

- 6" round design
If off-roading is your game, you've probably found yourself in a situation with little visibility and where a set of shock mounted driving lights would've come in handy. KC Hilites understands this and wants you to know that you no longer have to live in the dark. They offer an affordable set of fog lights which were made for the outdoor and off-road enthusiast.
Driving at night or during foggy or dusty conditions can be very dangerous. You can easily lose sight of where you are driving and potentially run into something causing harm to you or your vehicle. But with a set of KC Daylighter lights shining into the darkness you will surely get to your destination safely.
KC Hilites Daylighter fog lights for trucks give you the extra light you need to get out of the stickiest of situations. They are shock mounted; making them the ideal alternative in many fun and exciting scenarios including dirt racing, off road driving and in construction zones. Made by KC HiLites.
Beam patterns explained
What is the difference between driving lights, spot lights, fog lights, and flood lights?
Driving Lights
Often referred to as fog lights, driving lights have a beam that is able to travel a longer distance, but not as wide. Driving lights perform best when used to supplement your high-beams. Or they may be aimed lower and supplement your low-beams.
Spot / Off-Road Lights
Spot lights are strictly for off-road usage due to their powerful, tight beam. Using an array of spot lights will offer more coverage by aiming them at slightly different angles.
Fog Lights
Fog lights are generally mounted low on the vehicle such as the bumper or bumper grille. The light pattern is very wide, with a flat horizontal cutoff. When properly aimed, fog lights are the perfect complement to your low-beams. This is by far the most popular beam pattern and are installed on many vehicles from the factory - though there's always room for improvement by upgrading your existing fog lights.
Flood Lights
Flood lights have a beam pattern that may be similar in width to a fog light, but the beam does not have a horizontal cutoff. Therefore they are also for off-road use only. As with spot lights, a mounting location high on the vehicle is ideal.

|Very solid and well constructed. All parts replaceable if needed. Super bright with nice focused driving beam. Does not work well with other traffic due to brightness. Have it wired to high beams through relay with on/off switch also on dash. Good wiring harness. This is the quality that you pay extra for.

|I had previously bought my grille guard from Real Truck and made my own assumption that these light would fit the predrilled holes....kind of thought they would be universal.....my mistake. I did have to drill other holes and the angle of the bar made mounting a little difficult. But the lights have wonderful lighting, the wire kit made wiring easy and the lights seem to be very well made. I hope it all lasts like it looks like it should. Thank you for a nice product.

Moviefone's Top DVD of the Week
What's It About? Tom Hardy stars as a construction foreman who's driving to London to attend the birth of his child. You really shouldn't have stressful conversations on your cell while driving, but Ivan (Hardy) doesn't care. He has to make sure his big job tomorrow goes as planned, confess to his wife that he cheated on her with a co-worker, and coaching the aforementioned co-worker through the premature birth of their baby. Yikes.
Why We're In: Hardy is more than capable of commanding the screen for the entirety of the movie. Although you hear other characters' voices, it's all Hardy, all the time. Who could argue with that?
