As far as all of the classic Universal Monsters this film was always my favorite. Boris Karloff plays the cursed and ancient Im-Ho-Tep who is "unearthed" by British archeologists. His main goal is to find his reincarnated princess Anck-es-an-Amon, whom he finds in Helen Grosvenor (played by the at the time "exotic" actress Zita Johann). Enter an archeologist by the name of Frank Whemple (Played by David Manners) who also loves Helen, thus making Im-Ho-Tep step in and attempt to wipe out anyone who would get in his way to his immortal beloved.
The Mummy is basically a retelling of Dracula (The Mummy was written by William Branderson, who also wrote Dracula…go figure). What I love the most about this film is its brooding atmosphere. I didn't think it was as melodramatic, per se, as Dracula, although it too is a tragic romance much like Dracula. The director of the film, Karl Freund, was a first time director who had worked as a cameraman in Germany with F.W. Murnau and Fritz Lang. This is really apparent when you see how The Mummy was shot. Photographically this is the strongest of the Universal films with its subtle horror and amazing visuals.
And the subtlety of the horror is what works best here, and Karloff as Im-Ho-Tep is perhaps the most Machiavellian monster from the period. He's only the slow, lumbering mummy archetype that became the staple of Mummy films for the next 50 years when he is first briefly seen. The scene of Karloff in a full state of "mummyness" as a younger archeologist accidentally revives him is perhaps one of the best of the film. His motions are barely perceptible at all. The viewer only sees the reaction of the archeologist as he starts to laugh maniacally from the horror he's witnessing off screen. For the rest of the film Karloff looks incredibly old and haggard, wears a fez, and pretends to be Ardath Bey. An Egyptian gentleman.
Getting back to the nature of Im-Ho-Tep. Unlike later mummy films, he doesn't lumber up to people and choke them to death. No…he's an incredibly knowledgeable and dangerous sorcerer from ancient Egypt who kills from a distance with evil spells to achieve his ends. Karloff has no real emotion in this film. His motions, speech and mannerism are all incredibly slow and methodical and really work effectively. Karloff's Im-Ho-Tep won't openly show hostility to an enemy. No… he'll just simply skulk off and kill him from a safe distance. The most memorable and haunting scenes are the close ups of Karloff casting a spell on some one. It's a tight close-up of his face with deep shadows enveloping his eyes. As his power starts to grow his eyes light up. In this day of C.G., such subtle touches are lost. But here in this film they are extremely powerful. And power is what Karloff's mummy has in abundance. Ultimately he's destroyed not by men, but by the Egyptian god Thoth.
Universal recently released the The Legacy Collection of all their great monster films. The set comes with all of the Mummy films that Universal released (The Mummy/Mummy's Hand/Mummy's Tomb/Mummy's Ghost/Mummy's Curse) and tons of commentary and extras. There is a very enlightening documentary called "Mummy Dearest: A Horror Tradition Unearthed" which I really liked. There is some stuff with Stephen Sommers previewing the film and mentioning his crapfest Van Helsing (please ignore that) as well as his version of The Mummy. Watch the other Mummy films in the set and you'll probably wonder why they didn't have a mummy like Karloff in these as well. Instead they have the aforementioned lumbering mummy who chokes the guys and carries away the women.
Any and all horror fans NEED to have these Universal Legacy Collections in their possession. For the cash you can't go wrong and it's about 12 hours of things to watch!

Food joints open all the time in Miami, but few owners can say that opening the doors came with decades of dreaming.
Andy Travaglia's culinary venture, Lee & Marie's, opened Friday after 22 years of brainstorming, planning and wishing. The "cakery" is a joint partnership with acclaimed Belgian pastry chef, Yannis Janssens, complete with a menu of mouthwatering croissants, cakes, pies, danishes and more.
However, it's not so much the adorable, cozy shop that Travaglia is proud of; it's the mission behind it: creating a business where Autistic adults can work.
Living in New Jersey 22 years ago, her best friend's son was exhibiting out-of-the-ordinary behavior, and the two friends worked together to find a doctor that could diagnose him. But in the '80s, Autism was not a part of people's vocabulary that it is today.
"I went through the trials of trying to get the help for him," Travaglia said. "It changed my priorities."
At that point, she knew she wanted to do something for people with Autism but decided to wait until her daughters were grown. With Lee & Marie's, named after two women in the family who were known for their baking skills, her dream has become a reality. When she moved to Miami in 2008, she met with professionals at the University of Miami and Nova Southeastern University's Center for Autism and Related Disabilities to learn more about what work needed to be done in the field.
"I met so many families and I wondered, what happens to their kids when they age out of the 'system'?" she said. "It's a ridiculous amount of incredibly talented adults just wandering the streets."
In fact, a study found that "youth with an [Autism Spectrum Disorder] have poor postsecondary employment and education outcomes."
Chef Janssens said that when he met with adults across the Autism spectrum, he was shocked by their proficiency in learning technical skills in pastry, such as creating decorative pieces from gumpaste, fondant, chocolate, even butter. What was once a weakness -- being hyper-focused on one activity -- was translated into a strength in the kitchen. Also, the Autistic hires are paired with one of the Four Seasons trained staff members for guidance and help. Depending on their comfort levels, the employees can greet customers, bring food to tables or work behind the scenes.
"It's working out very, very well," Janssens said of Lee & Marie's, adding that, "there's a cause. I can work anywhere I want to work, but now, there's a reason."
Not only is there the cause for Autism, but also freshness. Travaglia grew up in farm life and swears she's never had a Big Mac. The cakery is partnered with three local farms for seasonal fresh fruits and dairy products from a farm in Myakka that delivers weekly. Lee & Marie's is also creating relationships with local businesses, such as Panther Coffee.
"I wanted to create a comfortable environment, reminding me of the farm table I grew up at," she said.
Lee & Marie's has a production store in Wynwood, and the plan is to expand that into a place where customers can visit and see the process as well. But all in all, the goal is to keep hiring Autistic adults and give them a chance to work.
"We're using [the store] as a prototype not just for us but for other companies," she said. "An Autistic employee is going to be nothing but a benefit to everybody, not just themselves."

Playing the owner of SBS's Wilfred, Cindy Waddingham has a hard time pretending not to hear him speak.
She is the girl in-between television's laziest, rudest, bong-smoking dog and her hapless boyfriend.
Cindy Waddingham plays Sarah, who is the owner of Wilfred, and is effectively the straight man of the SBS comedy series.
The show returns with a new series after being absent from our screens for nearly three years.
"It was a nervous wait for me, wondering if they were going to do it again," says Waddingham. "But I was very excited when they eventually did call and say 'Yep, we're on!'"
The cult comedy grew from a Tropfest film created by writer/performers Jason Gann and Adam Zwar. Waddingham won the role after she was spotted by Zwar and director Tony Rogers.
"I met Tony and Adam when I was doing a commercial with them, so that turned out OK," she says.
"Then I went and auditioned for Wilfred, but they had a lot of glamorous girls auditioning and I thought, 'There's these lookers, so they will probably go for them'. But they obviously wanted something different."
In Wilfred the dog talks only to Sarah's boyfriend Adam (Zwar) and not to her, leaving her with a most unusual job description as she tries to visualise only a four-legged friend and not a guy in a mangy dog suit.
"It's a little bit strange. Every so often you take a step back and think, 'I can't believe this is my job'. You come to work and there's a guy in a dog suit making a cup of tea off to the side.
"You try to ignore the fact that he is talking to Adam," she laughs.
"They get me into a little bit of trouble sometimes before a take, because they'll be doing a little comedy routine just before they say 'Action', and I'm about to piss myself laughing. They're good fun."
This series includes a number of guest stars including Kestie Morassi, Stephen Curry, Samuel Johnson, Josh Lawson, Dan Wyllie, Kym Gyngell, Ditch Davey and Alex Menglet.
The very humble Waddingham isn't yet sure whether she will be sitting down to watch the premiere with friends.
"I can't stand watching myself," she admits.
"I watched the first series and thought 'I can't believe they let me be a part of this'. But I really love watching the boys so I'll definitely check it out just for that and close my eyes when I'm on screen."
Wilfred airs 10pm Mondays on SBS ONE.

Product Description
There are many bentonite clay uses and we've found Redmond Clay to be the highest quality and the best bentonite clay. You can read about all the benefits of Redmond Clay here (including some good videos) but here are some of the reasons WE love it so much:
- You can literally feel it pulling toxins, pain, burns, etc. right out of your skin. Since the clay has a negative charge, it pulls all the toxins from your body because they have a positive charge.
- Hydrated clay can be applied externally as a poultice on cuts, bruises, insect bites, bee stings, sunburn, boils, rashes, achy joints, acne, and burns.
- I'm in love with clay baths. Especially when I feel bad, like if I'm sick, have allergies, aching muscles, etc. I ALWAYS feel A LOT better after I have a clay bath. I started taking them in an effort to de-tox heavy metals in my body and while I don't have any "real" proof that it helped, I'm pretty sure it did.
- You can use it internally for occasional diarrhea, constipation, heartburn, stomachache, acid indigestion, acid reflux, and other digestive problems. You can mix it in water or now they have it in capsules (hooray!)
The biggest tip we can give you about the clay when used externally is – DON'T let it dry out and put it on really thick (1/4 to 1 inch thick). Usually it works best to cover it with saran wrap (this is also one of the down-sides of it, but it is totally worth the effort).
Redmond Clay is now available in several different forms:

We have reached a breaking point.
We are now surrounded by too much technology intended to make our lives easier but instead making them more difficult.
Take the car.
I used to be smarter than my car. Not way smarter, but smart enough to feel like I was management.
Now I'm not even sure I'm smarter than my windshield wipers.
Same goes for the heat. I don't have a heater anymore; I have a climate control system. This system not only blows hot and cold, but I'm pretty sure if I read the manual I could make it snow.
Don't even get me started on the communications stuff. I was riding in my wife's car the other day when the radio was interrupted by someone...

Posted: January 10, 2013Blackmouth fishing is pretty darn good right now in the San Juan's. I heard that the (state Fish and Wildlife) fish checkers have had record (non-derby) days counting salmon. Seems like the fish are everywhere, so pick your favorite spot and go.
With good fishing like this, and a big derby coming up like the Roche, there will be more boats out there. If you are fishing a tight spot, or close to shore along a troll, a little common sense and etiquette goes a long way. Think of a group of boats trolling like a NASCAR race. Instead of a bunch of rednecks and Danica Patrick turning left at 200 mph, it's a bunch of Chinook addled fishermen traveling at 2 mph.

Wavelength looks a little off. 6000nm is ultra-far infrared. I think perhaps you mean color temperature. Wavelength should be 400-700nm. Though, white is a blend of many wavelengths, so this still doesn't work too well.
200V-600V AC? Did you by chance mean 200mV? This is what the product images indicate.
If I wanted to control a normal 240V circuit, would I need two of these? Basically, there are 2 legs of 120V offset by 180°. Theoretically, it should work with just one, as there would be an open circuit unless the relay was closed.
Also, is this NO or NC?
Totally agree on this. 5 and 3.3V is way better than 5 or 3.3V
No pictures of the product working in the dark?
When can we see a USB 3.0 version of this cable? Or even a Micro-USB? The Cerberus is cool, but it sounds like it has issues, and the extra heads tend to get in the way of normal usage.
This kit is far superior to another one I bought at Fry's (Parallax). I spent a couple hours trying to avoid duplicating (ok, centicating) successive reads. This device has that built in, so I no longer have to fudge around in my code to only check once. Great job!
The built-in beep is also a nice addition. Were it not useful to have two readers, I'd likely return the Parallax one.
No public wish lists :(

The Turkish Aegean Coast region
The Bodrum / Lake Tuzla area
Flamingo Country Club is rapidly becoming one of Bodrum's premier holiday resorts. Not only do you get first class accommodation, over 20 pools to choose from, a beach club, clubhouse, golf, sports, and a whole range of leisure amenities, you also have access to another three stunning resorts all within a short walking distance or drive. Imagine being able to choose from three Clubhouses, a Beach Club, Beach and over 30 pools as well as Saunas, Indoor pools, Turkish Baths and a wide range of other pastimes - a situation I suspect many people would love to find themselves in.
Flamingo Country Club is located on the beautiful Tuzla headland with stunning views of the Aegean Sea on one side and Tuzla Lake out to the distant mountains on the other. During the period October to April, Lake Tuzla is home to 1000's of migrating and local wildfowl. These included flamingos and pelicans as well as many rare and beautiful birds and mammals. Lake Tuzla is a national reserve and is protected by the Turkish government. Flamingo Country Club is just one of four resorts situated in this beautiful location, all available for you to explore and enjoy.
There are various restaurants to choose from in the sister resorts to Flamingo (Turquoise, Lakeside Garden and Royal Heights), all within walking distance, and there are many other various restaurants and bars in nearby Guvercinlik, Bogazici and Gulluk. Just outside of Flamingo there is Ocean View and Sunset Cafe - both ideal places to wind down after a hard day at the beach club. There are also various small beaches nearby with facilities open to tourists, not forgetting of course your very own beach club and clubhouse on the resort itself. All serve food and drinks during the day and some even into the late evening.
Lake Tuzla
The Flamingo Country Club is situated in the Bodrum/Tuzla region. Bodrum is often called Turkey's St. Tropez, and the town really lives up to the name!
Bodrum has a Mediterranean climate. A winter average high of 14 °C (57 °F) and in the summer 32 °C (90 °F), with clear blue skies. Summers are hot and humid and winters are mild and mostly sunny. The region receives over 300 days of sunshine annually.
Bodrum is a port town in the south-west of Turkey, and it faces the Greek island of Kos. The city was called Halicarnassus of Caria in ancient times. The Mausoleum of Mausolus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, was here. Today, it is an international centre of tourism, golf and yachting.
The Bodrum / Tuzla area
Golf - there are a number of top-class golf courses in the local area, as well as a 9 hole golf course on the complex. Golf courses in the local area include Vita Park Golf Resort (36 holes), Milas (18 holes) and Halikarnas (18 holes).
Shopping/Markets - Shopping through the narrow streets of Bodrum between the white walls is one of the pleasures you must try here. The bazaar quarter is home to traditional shops, selling everything from carpets and rugs, to leather, silver, pottery and embroidery, and colourful local markets offering an array of local produce and spices.
Diving/Snorkelling - Bodrum has always been known as one of the world's premier diving destinations. Here, the crystal-clear, warm waters of the Agean Sea embraces spectacular walls, amazing caves, unspoiled reefs and thrilling drop-offs. There are a number of PADI centres in the area, making it ideal for diving experts and beginners.
Watersports - The beaches are ideal for water sports, with many beaches offering facilities ranging from jet skiing, canoeing, banana boats, surfing, wind surfing, water skiing and parasailing.
Sailing - With the lively marina the hub of the town, sailing is a way of life in the Bodrum Peninsula, with plenty of opportunity to cruise along the spectacular shoreline in a yacht or enjoy a famed Blue Cruise in a traditional wooden gulet.
Wining and Dining - There is a wide variety of places to eat delicious food. You can taste various popular cuisines including Italian, Thai, Chinese, Mexican and European cooking and Turkish food from simple meals to gourmet feasts.
Bodrum Dedeman Aquapark - Within the 65000 square meters of the park, there are 23 slides, a 350 meter river with artificial waves, pools and restaurants. Race down the inside of the cliffs in the frothing waters of the wild river, or plunge into the surf of the wave pool. Try white water rafting down their lifelike river.
Bitez Beach - Set amongst towering mountains and lush mandarin gardens, Bitez is where the green reaches out to meet the blue of the Aegean. While sunbathing on the beach or relaxing in a beach front cafe, here you can feel miles away from it all.
Myndos Gate - Recently restored to its former glory, the Myndos Gate is one of the witnesses for the great history of Halicarnasus. It was the scene for one of the greatest bloodiest battles during the siege Alexander the Great.
Ottoman shipyard - The recently restored shipyard is situated at the Bodrum Harbour and Marina. Modern wooden boats are being built in many dockyards around the Bodrum area and are popular with Turkish and Foreign tourists alike.
Amphithreatre - The Ancient Amphitheatre in Bodrum is an important structure, which is cut into the rocky hillside overlooking Bodrum. It is used for concerts and shows during the high season and definitely worth a visit.
Bodrum Castle - Built by the Crusaders in the 15th century, it overlooks the harbor and the International Marina. The castle grounds includes a Museum of Underwater Archeology and hosts several cultural festivals throughout the year.
Place to visit/Day trips
Ephesus - Ephesus contains the largest collection of Roman ruins in the eastern Mediterranean. The ruins that are visible give some idea of the city's original splendor, making them a favourite international and local tourist attraction.
Pamukkale - There are 17 hot water springs in which the temperature ranges from 35 °C (95 °F) to 100 °C (212 °F). Pamukkale was made a World Heritage Site in 1988 and is a popular tourist attraction.
Kos and Rhodes - Bodrum is the ideal harbour for a short visit to Greece. But is it worth the effort. Kos is the third largest of the Greek islands of the group and the second most popular and touristy island. The island of Rhodes has an excellent tourist infrastructure and accessible from Bodrum Harbour.

Rented a 3 Bedroom Apartment for 1 year at the Villages of Louetta and it was a great experience! First off our children loved it here; great place for children (swimming pool, park, gym, school is walking/biking distance). The maintenance is super, fast, and friendly! The area is well kept and most of all the office staff is nice and care a lot about their residents. Thank you so much for everything Villages of Louetta and keep up the good job!

I moved in 6 months ago. The complex is maintained excellently. The pool is beautiful. There are computers available for residents to conduct internet business. There is a modest but sufficient workout room. My apartment is updated. The neighbors are friendly, and the area is safe. The location is very good too. I have a two bedroom that I pay about $150 a month more than other apartments in the area, but they are not comparable given the overall quality of Villages at Louetta.

Unbeaten so far in the 2008-09 season, the Canastota girls volleyball team kept up the good work during the holiday break.
Amid last Saturday's Laidlaw Invitational, the Raiders finished first in its own Maroon pool, beating Lowville, Dolgeville and Camden for top honors. Chittenango and Old Forge also were in the group.
Canastota's April Swanson earned MVP honors. Jessica DeNova got named to the All-Tournament team with Jacki Valken (Camden), Angela Williams (Old Forge), Rachel Antelmi (Chittenango), Cassie Scharpau (Dolgevillle) and Haley Strife (Lowville).
Meanwhile, in the Gold pool, Skaneateles won, followed by Adironack, Vernon-Verona-Sherrill and Sauquoit Valley, with Morrisville-Eaton and Oneida taking up the rear.
The Lakers' Ryan Merle took MVP honors in the group as setter Chloe Warner reached the All-Tournament team. VVS's Rachel Brown, Oneida's Kelly Insonrato and M-E's Kendal Pickett grabbed All-Tournament honors, too, as did Kaitlin Kenny (Sauquoit) and Suzanne Jokaton (Adirondack).
Canastota and Adirondack will face off next Monday as the Raiders' Center State Conference schedule resumes.

From Elias: Matt Moulson, who scored the last two goals in the Islanders' 3-0
win against the Kings on Saturday, scored the first two goals in the Isles' 5-1
win over the Panthers on Monday afternoon. (He completed his second career hat
trick with an empty-net goal in the third period against Florida.) Moulson is
only the third player in Islanders history to score four consecutive goals
without a teammate or an opponent scoring a goal. Clark Gillies scored four
straight goals on Feb. 19-20, 1977, and Greg Gilbert did the same on Feb. 16-18,
Bizarre that all three streaks have occurred in February!
Note that is a slightly different record than the one John Tavares tied last

who had scored five consecutive team goals (with goals from the opposition mixed

Taking the TAKS test may be less intimidating in the near future.
A plan unveiled in Austin Tuesday by the House and Senate education committees proposes no longer requiring students to pass the TAKS to move to the next grade. Instead, individual school districts would determine if a borderline student is held back.
In a statement, Senate Education Committee Chair Florence Shapiro said, "Just because we have said social promotion won't be based on a single test doesn't mean we won't take care of those students (who are under performing). We're not saying they won't be held back; we're just saying the decision won't be based on one test."
The other major change recommends basing annual school performance ratings on three years of TAKS tests rather than only the most recent.

text: Michigan Wiping 'R-Word' From Its Laws Bills will remove 'retarded' and related words from the books By Arden Dier, Newser Staff Posted Mar 28, 2014 9:15 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (155) (Newser) – A few choice words are likely to be excised from Michigan law today, as Lt. Gov. Brian Calley is set to sign what is known as the "R-Word" package of bills into state law. The package—which contains eight House bills and seven Senate bills passed unanimously last Thursday, the Detroit Free Press earlier reported—will replace words like "retarded" and "mental retardation" with "developmental disability." Those soon-to-be-wiped words appear 15 times in Michigan laws on everything from mental health to education, CBS Detroit reports. Special Olympics Michigan reps praised the bills, noting "mental retardation" and "mentally retarded" were removed from federal policy in 2010, and, aside from Michigan, there are only five states that haven't yet addressed the terms. "This is a historic day for Michigan," the organization's president said. "With the signing of these bills, those with developmental disabilities now have a new 'R-Word': respect." A Spread the Word to End the Word anti-bullying campaign is expected to follow at area schools. In this July 19, 2013, file photo, Michigan Gov.

Hi! I have a fresh wound from recent boil extraction/ surgery in my face that is around 2mm wide and 2.5mm deep. It looks like I have a small hallow hole in my face. Will this result to an icepick type of scarring? Is there any type of anti scarring cream that will be able to help me minimize this type of deep scarring? What are other possible options? I'm deeply bothered since its right in the middle and is very noticeable. thanks

How do I find the spoke length? should the spokes be different lengths for drive side and non-drive side? Or should the be different, thanks.
How do I find the spoke length? should the spokes be different lengths for drive side and non-drive side? Or should the be different, thanks.
If you use SpoCalc, at least some of the common OC rims are already in the data base. I just looked and the Velocity Aerohead OC rim is in there. The spokes from the two different sides will not necessarily be the same length. OC(off center) rims reduce dish, they don't eliminate it.Originally Posted by you
SpoCalc is available free. You just need an app that will run Excel spreadsheets (eg. MS Excel or Star Office). You can download Spocalc from Sheldon Brown's site:
It's great for several reasons. First, it has a very large database of rims and hubs. It does all the math for you. Once you plug in the numbers it automatically calculates the spoke lengths for radial, 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x lacing patterns. If you can run spreadsheets it's a great way to go. Even if your specific rim or hub is not in the database you can do all the entries manually and the calculations are still automated. There is a specific variable entry for OC rims. It is "O.S.B." This is the "lateral spoke bed offset (from wheel center). Non-zero for asymmetric rims".
If you can't get Spocalc up and running, I can run the numbers for you, but you will have to supply them for me. For the rim you need the OSB and the ERD. For the hub you need five different measurements. The best bet is to supply the specific model numbers for the rim and hub and see if they are already in the SpoCalc database.
I looked at the other two spoke calculators I have used (DT Swiss and Promechanics.com) and neither of them accounts for offset rims.
Does anyone know of some calculator (other than SpoCalc) that takes an O.S.B. variable?

"Work is the curse of the drinking class."

I used spokecalc and wasn't sure if the spokes should be the same length or not, I also noticed that the only rim dimension taken into account is the effective rim diameter not how the rim is dished or whatever. I am using the Aerohead OCs.
If you look on the "rims" page, you will see that there are two columns that are tinted yellow. These are the variables. The first one is "E.R.D." (effective rim diameter) and the second is "OSB, mm". You should notice that the entry in OSB for the Aerohead OCs is 4.0mm. Look at the rest of the rims and you will see that they are almost all 0.0mm, except for some Ritchey, Bontrager, and a couple of others. Any rim that has an entry other than zero is assymmetric.Originally Posted by you
So, are they different lengths? I'd guess that they are 1mm different. Most rear wheels have spokes that are 2mm different from drive side to non-drive side.
"Work is the curse of the drinking class."
- Oscar Wilde
yeah they're a mm different, thanks.
should the spokes be of equal tension?
If you go to the "Calculator" page of that spreadsheet, you should see an entry over on the far right (in the Rear Wheel group) that is labelled "Tension L/R". It should give you a ratio (in %) of the left to right sides (or non-drive to drive sides). As I stated before, OC rims don't eliminate dish, they just reduce it. This allows for the tension on the non-drive side to be higher than a normal rim. A normal rim will usually produce a ratio of ~60%. I would speculate that the tension ratio for your OC rim will be in the 85-90% range (again, just my guess). The closer you can get to 100%, the better.Originally Posted by you
To specifically answer your question, no, I don't think they'll be the same.
So, what is that ratio?
A word of caution here... I have found that ratio number produced by Spocalc to be a nice guideline, but it's most important to tension up the drive side spokes to the rim manufactureres max specification to get the strongest wheels. Get them all tensioned up and then you can finish your truing and dishing with the non-drive side spokes. I just check them to make sure there is not a spoke that is much differnt from the rest - and, I have built wheels that this happenned to me. One spoke would be way loose and the wheel would seem to be done. In this case you tighten up that spoke and re-check everything else. Don't get hung up on the tension for the non-drive side spokes. Just make sure there are no noticeably loose ones. Concentrate on the drive side spokes. They are doing the "heavy lifting" for your rear wheel.
"Work is the curse of the drinking class."
- Oscar Wilde
Probably not. The amount of dish required is what determines the difference in spoke tension. When you get the rim centered between the locknuts, the tension difference from side-to-side is what it is and you can't do anything about it.Originally Posted by you

We are honored that you are visiting our site to learn more about what Drips 'n' Puddles can do for your backyard.
Drips 'n' Puddles designs and builds backyards.
Think about the backyard as an extension of your home. Sort of another room, an outdoor Man Cave. In the State of Florida, this outdoor Man Cave should be where you spend the majority of your time entertaining, relaxing and enjoying with family and friends. Think of the possibilities that can be added to this room, such as a gathering spot around a warm Custom Fire Pit or sitting comfortably next to your Outdoor Fireplace quietly reading a book, the shadows of your new Custom Pergola falling across the pages from the firelight. This outdoor room could have a better kitchen than the kitchen inside your house with an awesome outdoor grill loaded with cooking features. It could have better and more ways to prepare and cook food that could not be done inside the house, such as cooking with wood pellets and charcoal wood chunks, rotisserie and infrared heat and smoking those roasts and hens. Highlighting the area is a beautiful pool with new marcite pool finish or new pool vinyl liner surrounded by a remodeled paver deck with travertine or brick pavers. Add colored lighting, and water features such as a sheer descent or bubbles to create the relaxing ambiance you desire. Drips n Puddles is full Service, Repair and Remodel Swimming Pool Company. We design and build Custom Outdoor Kitchens. Custom Outdoor Fire Pits and Outdoor Fireplaces is something we take pride in to build in your backyard.

Swimming Pool Remodel
There is so much to learn when talking about a swimming pool remodel project. Some of the main pool features such as finish type, water line tile, step tile, pool mosaics, coping, coping tile are easy and fun to shop and compare. You can pick from a Pebble Stone Finish to quartz marcite, from glazed ceramic tile to glass inlay tile. The options on tile color, tile size, pool mosaics, step tile and cantilever tile are endless. The swimming pool mosaic tile is done in porcelain tile to ceramic tile and the patterns and imagery would bring your pool project to life. The deck is the next biggest priority. I compare picking out swimming pool deck types to picking out household carpet, there are so many choices. Most pools in Florida have a knockdown finish. This is a skim coat with a sprayed on second coat then knocked down and painted to create the knockdown look. This type of finish has a tendency to crack and expand as your deck moves. A more popular choice is a paver deck. The paver deck can be finished in a clay paver, process paver, travertine, marble, stamped concrete, stained and wood or Trex. A pool remodel does not stop at the pool finish, deck or swimming pool tile. There are pool features such as water bubblers, sheer descents, rain falls, water bowls and spill overs. The project really is a learning experience. Drips n Puddles will educate you on all the options available for your swimming pool remodel project. We would be honored.

Drips 'n' Puddles designs and builds Custom Outdoor Kitchens, Outdoor Fireplaces and Fire Pits.
Drips n Puddles can design and build your custom outdoor kitchen with features that allow you to be the head chef. Think of your kitchen oven as a propane dual side burner and your oven as the outdoor grill. Now think of all the ways that you can cook on outdoor grills and the types of outdoor grills that are available from Japanese Komado Ceramic grill, a wood pellet grill, to a 304 stainless Steel Propane or Natural Gas Grill. Each one of these are offered in your custom designed outdoor kitchen.
Custom Outdoor Kitchens and Outdoor Grills
Outdoor Kitchens or Summer Kitchens are custom built to BBQ, Smoke, Sear, Bake, Grill and Roast. If the custom outdoor kitchen is built correctly, efficient with the right kitchen components and taught how to use to its fullest potential a whole new array of foods, taste and cooking styles will open up to you. Think about the components you have in your kitchen; your stove, most likely electric with an oven and four burners. Now think about a custom built grill head with built in rotisserie and back burner for perfect roasting, a searing station for those perfect steaks, a smoking box for smokey flavored meats and a cooking area with twice the room. The four burners you have on the stove top are most likely electric. What if you could baste, fry, and simmer your sauces on a open flame outdoors? Now design this with a power burner for those perfect seafood boils and turkey frying, an outdoor rated refrigerator and beverage center to hold all those cold drinks entertaining your friends outdoors on a raised bar area fit for a king. all this can be done for half the cost of your last indoor kitchen remodel.

Custom Outdoor Fireplaces
Many a story has been told around the fireplace. Something about looking into the wood burning logs and embers that relaxes and soothes the soul. Today's outdoor fireplaces are nothing like your fireplaces of the past. They are built to last the weather and salt conditions found along the Florida coast line. Still built with a stone mason in mind but custom built with electronic programmable gas burners, ceramic gas logs, and array of shapes, sizes and designs to fit your backyard theme. learn more
Custom Fire Pits

How to Build an Outdoor Fireplace or Fire Pit
For decades, stories of all kinds have been told around the fireplace. Something about looking into the wood burning logs and embers soothe and relax everyone. Today's modern day outdoor fireplaces are nothing like fireplaces from years ago. Drips 'n' Puddles partakes in the evolution and modernization to fit the personalized needs of the user. Fireplaces are now built to last the weather and salt conditions. This is especially important along the Florida coast line. Even though fireplaces are still built with a stone mason in mind, they are customized with electronic programmable gas burners, ceramic gas logs, and array of shapes, sizes and designs to fit your backyard theme. Each fireplace has a story to tell. Different materials and styles make up an individual's vision.
There are three options of fires foundations to choose from when planning your fire pit. The first is the old fashion way using a good portion of wood, such as Hickory or Oak. This is a classic use because of the smoky smell and the characteristic close feeling of a traditional fireplace. The second source is propane. Propane requires additional planning including measurements, permits and costs. The third options is Natural Gas. This source is a great source of fire and very economical to run both economically and environmentally.
Once you decided on the fire source, it is important to help decide the burner type right for you. Drips 'n' Puddles recommends that you eliminate natural wood and select a burner in either Natural Gas or Propane. Gas pits need a gas line that must be trenched and piped to an assembly point. This makes them a little more expensive to operate, but easier to use and uphold. Both of these burners can be lit with a push button igniter or electronic ignition. The burners are presented in an extensive assortment of shapes and sizes to fit your project. If you can't find the size or shape you are searching for, Drips 'n' Puddles will custom design the burner for your specific project.
Drips 'n' Puddles is one of the few Florida companies that build their Fire Pits Cabinets out of a new fire stone. We are here to help you, whether it's to construct a model fireplace or construct a custom vision, we are here to help. Most burners are made of galvanized aluminum or Stainless Steel Metal. This makes them easy to light and maintain proper quality.read more

INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION -- Shuttle Discovery's astronauts have breezed through their third and final spacewalk.
They replaced an empty gas tank at the international space station and collected a sample of dusty debris.
Spacewalkers Michael Fossum and Ronald Garan Junior wrapped up their work so quickly, Mission Control threw in some extra chores.
You can see Aggie Mike Fossum's entire interview with News 3 from aboard Discovery by clicking this link.
The highlight of the six-and-a-half-hour spacewalk for Garan was a long ride on the space station's robot arm that swung him 80 feet out from the orbiting complex. He carried an empty nitrogen gas tank from one side of the station to the other, then returned with a full tank and plugged it in for use in the coolant system.
Discovery and its crew have two more days at the space station, before leaving Wednesday.

Viewers with disabilities can get assistance accessing this station's FCC Public Inspection File by contacting the station with the information listed below. Questions or concerns relating to the accessibility of the FCC's online public file system should be directed to the FCC at 888-225-5322, 888-835-5322 (TTY), or firstname.lastname@example.com.

DogWatch Tavern in Fells Point
New bar owners transform a tired, old space in Fells Point.
By Jess Mayhugh. Posted on December 06, 2011
DogWatch Tavern, a new bar bar in Fells Point, opened in late September in the old Reefers space on Broadway. Owner Marka Browning (former bartender at nearby J.A. Murphy's) bought the space and did a complete overhaul of the interior. Once was a Caribbean-themed tiki lounge is now a modern, renovated, neighborhood bar with a bright red and black motif.
The tavern—which is huge at three rowhomes wide—is very obviously dog-themed, from the name to the branding (and even the bathrooms are divided into "squatters" and "leg lifters"). There is a sports bar feel to the place, with an arcade bowling game, large flat screen TVs, and a pub grub menu.
The night that we went, I tried some bar food staples, wings and buffalo chicken dip, which both lived up to their filling, spicy potential. There's good beer on tap, including Fat Tire Amber Ale, and the bar carries NHL and NFL packages. There are also self-serve beer taps at the bar, a trend that keeps popping up.
What's probably coolest about the new spot is its sheer size. There are tons of different areas to hang out for dining, shooting pool, lounging on leather couches to watch the game, or just hanging out at the bar. Where as many places in Fells Point (and the city in general) tend to feel confining, DogWatch is nice and open—making it an oasis in itself, without all the corny palm trees of its predecessor.
The bar is hosting a holiday bar crawl (cleverly dubbed "Jingle Fells") on December 17 via Living Social.
